Please stop persecuting your students!

"She's almost grown from a girl to a woman, but my Blade is still so innocent."

Saki sighed and began to think about whether to dirty Nia's pure heart. This girl was very straightforward and didn't know what to say or not. If she continued to let it go, there might be some misunderstandings. After all, people with simple thoughts like Nia were a minority. On the contrary, people like Saki, Baihu, and Jeanne, who were full of garbage, were the majority.

But there was no rush to explain, Saki quietly stroked the cat without saying anything. Time seemed to go back to ten minutes ago, and the two looked at the night of Gula again, but this time Nia obviously had many topics to talk to Saki. But Nia raised her hand and poked someone's lower abdomen, asking:

"The teacher hasn't answered yet. Do you really want him to join?"

"If you insist, he is not joining the team. He is just watching from the sidelines."

"They were enemies before..."

Nia stared at Saki, and seeing him smiling without saying anything, she realized that this must be the same old routine. This man knew the information of that person in some way, so let alone killing him, he did not feel too much hostility even after being interrupted by a sneak attack. Instead, he knocked the other party down in a relatively gentle way (referring to removing all joints), and even shouted at her to stop the attack.

Nia got angry when she thought of this. He must have a problem with his brain because he yelled at his girlfriend, student and Blade for a rough-headed guy. Nia, who was thinking about it and making herself feel bad, pursed her lips and said meaningfully:

"It's okay for the teacher to believe that person, but did that person really believe what the teacher said?"

"Except for that one sentence, he probably didn't believe a word of it."

Before Nia could ask subconsciously, Saki answered on his own:

"That's the third point I mentioned before his attitude changed."

"Xia's? Oh! Indeed, his attitude changed quickly after the teacher said that."

Having said this, Nia came to her senses and understood the reason for Sieg's change of attitude. She suddenly said:

"That is to say, he didn't believe the teacher, but——"

"He believed in the character of Fan Le Noren."

Although the character of the Blade will be affected by the Blade Master, it is not enough to completely change the thinking of a life. If an upright Blade falls into the hands of someone with a different character and philosophy, not only will it become a conflict after tuning, but it will not even be possible to tune it. It is precisely because of the belief in the character of the Saint who would treat even the villains gently (meaning not to summon fists to attack directly) that Sieg temporarily changed his attitude and plan.

If Xia really was not tuned, but was traveling with the group of people in front of him by her own will, then he would use his eyes and ears to personally see and listen to confirm the character of this group of people. After this stage, he would confirm the truthfulness of what they said, which was enough to shake the foundation of Arcadia.

Judging from these alone, he really doesn't really like it directly, and he is worthy of being the president of Kaiba.

This result is undoubtedly quite good. As soon as they entered the Netherworld, they made contact with the top five people on the priority contact list without any casualties, and barely got on board this ship that had been completely transformed compared to the last time. According to Chiron, the first and second contact targets were also on the way. It can be said that it was a great start. The only problem is...

Saki lowered his head and looked at Nia, who was lying on her side on his thighs and pulling at grass roots to pass the time in dissatisfaction. He tore a crack behind him, picked up the confused cat, and the two of them walked in together.

Joan of Arc, who noticed this scene on the top of the mountain, gave a revelation with her backhand. Her pretty face suddenly turned red, and she covered her face and turned her head away.

Volume 588: Return to the Netherworld, the Day the World is Saved: Chapter Chapter Nothing happened in this chapter

Saki leaned against an iron plate with a soft sponge pad welded on it, and looked up at the pitch-black 'ceiling' that did not reflect any light.

That is the inner wall of this subspace, the most solid protective shield in this space that was forcibly inserted into the cracks of space at a time using more than 100,000 spiritual power units, the so-called space barrier.

Although its strength is not as good as that of the real native space, it is hidden in the cracks of the native space and is inherently in... a rather embarrassing invincible position.

After all, in front of a man with targeted abilities or someone who is really strong enough to punch through the void, this second and final protective wall is actually not much stronger than the paper membrane left after opening the lid of a can of potato chips. It has more symbolic significance than practical significance, or in other words, the object of defense is completely different.

At this moment, Saki was holding a short stick of a lollipop in his mouth, staring at the monotonous darkness quietly, as if thinking about life. It was not until he felt something hit his right foot that he stopped looking up at the sky and turned to stare at the girl rolling on the bed.

Without the red rope that bound her in the past, the girl's body was wrapped in her casually spread silver-gray hair. She had taken off her sleeves and skirt, leaving only the red and white over-the-knee socks and the high-slit tights. The girl's body looked even smaller. Just looking at her made me feel like a sledgehammer with a ten-year mark on it was smashing into my mind.

Right now, the girl looked as restless as usual, with her hands wrapped in white silk gloves covering her belly - the only area covered by a thin piece of black silk on this white dress with gold edges and ether-like crystals. Her delicate face was filled with an awkward expression that was difficult to describe in words, and her pair of furry ears were raised high, reflecting that the girl was actually in a very excited state.

Seeing Nia rolling around on the bed, messing up her originally smooth and beautiful long hair, Saki, who had been hit several times in a row, finally couldn't help asking:

"Are you still feeling so bad? What about treatment?"

"I've been treated, but I'm not feeling well..."

Nia was lying on the bed, looking up at Saki, with a rare pitiful look on her face.

"It feels really weird... um, a bit like the feeling of eating too much hot pot made by the teacher?"

"Is this the Sichuan special edition?"

Saki was shocked, as no one in his circle had ever mentioned that eating spicy food would have such a special... um... side effect.

Under Nia's slightly expectant gaze, he took out a substitute card, stared at Nia who was holding her belly and looking at him pitifully for a while, then silently put the card back, then reached out to pick up Nia who rolled her eyes and placed her horizontally on his lap, then skillfully began to stroke her fur and comforted her casually:

"It's okay. It's normal to feel uncomfortable after doing something so crazy for the first time."

"The game didn't say it would be like this..."

"What happens next?"

“Do it!”

The kitten, who was so lazy that it was about to melt, suddenly jumped up, but was slapped back on Saki's leg by his backhand. Saki continued to stroke its fur while perfunctorily soothing it. Nia hummed a sound that seemed to be both happy and dissatisfied, and didn't say anything else.

After being together for a quarter of an hour, and confirming that Nia had turned her head over and started to take a nap in a strange sleeping position, Saki carefully put this catwoman, whose clinginess had increased several levels, from his legs back onto the bed, turned over and jumped off the bed, and with a helpless look on his face, he took off the mattress on the lower bunk that was covered with a large wet area.

How should I put it? As expected of a water-attributed Blade, well... that's all I can say. If you understand, you'll understand.

Carrying the wet mattress, Saki opened the space crack and walked out. A gust of cold wind immediately blew onto Saki's face.

The temperature in the netherworld in September was not much warmer than that of Tenjin Elementary School which had just entered April, or of Fordlan which had entered April for some time. Especially at this early morning, the cold wind with the moisture naturally evaporated from the sea of ​​clouds and the altitude of at least one thousand meters directly poured into the gaps in the clothes, making Saki, who was used to the cold wind in the south in winter that came with defense-nullifying and penetrating damage, shiver in comfort.

As for the sunrise... unfortunately, it is not visible. During this period, the right half of Gula faces west, and the rising sun is completely blocked by Gula's back. It will not appear from the lush mountain ridge until after 9 a.m. Although it is not completely invisible, at least in these few months, the so-called sunrise to the Gula people is like the sunrise to young people who have a disordered work and rest schedule and stay up for several hours every day and get up at noon the next day. There is no connection between the two.

Facing the fresh morning breeze, Saki used his spiritual power to spread out the mattress in front of him. He stretched out one hand forward, and a wave of heat from the palm of his hand directly hit the center of the obvious wet mark on the mattress. The water vapor in the air suddenly increased a bit, and Saki couldn't help but frowned slightly.

There is no extra smell, no fishy smell, nor the outrageous fruity fragrance that some virgins imagine.

There was only the 'smell' of water, nothing more. This made Saki want to collect some samples and take them back to test what exactly was in them. What was the difference between the secretions of the Blades and those of humans...

Thinking of this, Saki raised his head and looked at the blue sky with white clouds above his head, and his voice became a little more melancholy:

"What on earth are those of us on night watch doing?"

"Your partner's strength is truly outstanding. Even we had to work hard to shake him off and get around him."

A neutral voice drifted slowly from behind him, the rustling sound drowning out the sound of grass being trampled and broken under his feet and burned by high temperatures. Saki had no choice but to stop what he was doing and looked at the visitor behind him, with a barely noticeable frown at the corner of his mouth.

If he remembered correctly, Chiron was in charge of the Great Plains. Although he had told them not to kill the enemy if they were not hostile, wasn't it a bit too much to just let the "enemy" walk right up to him?

Even though any one of them could defeat all the Blades and most of the cannibalistic Heroic Spirits, how could they not be able to stop a Blade Master and his Blade who were still within the normal human range?

'Did you notice my plan?'

It can only be said that he is worthy of being a sage with wisdom comparable to that of the gods in Greek mythology. With limited information and the future vision after the combination of skills, he guessed Saki's current arrangements and plans and cooperated with them. From the Overlook Hill to the Great Plain, unless a person can fly or swim through the sea of ​​clouds like Sieg, he will definitely pass by the place where Lex, Taichi and others are camping. The two people in front of Saki can successfully reach here without alarming their own students, which must be because Chiron is helping them from the inside.

Working with smart people...is really a relief!

Volume 589 Return to the Netherworld, the Day the World Was Saved: Chapter Chapter Saki: I feel like my body has been hollowed out...

After sorting out his thoughts, Saki adjusted his state, lowered his gaze slightly, and looked at the handsome beauty in men's clothing.

The Archon of the Spebia Empire - Melef Lahat Spebia.

And her Blade, the strongest fire-attribute Blade, the Pearl of the Empire - Kagutsuchi.

Although he didn't really want to engage in a brain battle with such a troublesome person after overindulging himself, there was no possibility of retreating at this point, so he had to bite the bullet.

Seeing this, Kagutsuchi, who had been squinting his eyes to observe Saki's reaction, couldn't help but nod slightly.

At the beginning, because they were in a state of hostility and the two sides separated after a brief fight, her attention was more focused on the Holy Grail of Heaven and she failed to pay attention to this person. Now, after standing close and taking a look at him...how to put it, this demeanor is indeed extraordinary.

Putting aside the strange ability to control objects in mid-air, Kagutsuchi's evaluation of this man was slightly raised by the fact that he was open-minded (check Baidu) and did not look away, and his eyes were calm and unwavering. Because of this outfit, she was often provoked by men who tried to talk to her during the bandit suppression, and she also received many special looks on weekdays. It is rare to see a man who seems to be indifferent from the bottom of his heart like the man in front of her.

Not only that, when faced with a combination of Kagutsuchi, who is extremely feminine, and Mellef, who is at the other extreme of Kagutsuchi and can be said to have no femininity at all, the other party still does not show any strange color in his eyes - based on these two points alone, this man can be evaluated as a gentleman.

Of course, it could also be that they are old-fashioned or too serious, like the Nopon people, whose aesthetics are fundamentally different from those of humans. Those businessmen who value money more than anything else are also so serious and solemn when talking about business.

Putting aside this layer of feeling, Kagutsuchi's view on this man is more... In fact, he is still wary. To be honest, if the content of the letter that was left behind inexplicably was not of great importance, she really didn't want her own Blade Master to take such a big risk to contact this dangerous man. You know, under their observation, the man with the name of Thunder Bomb did not move except for the initial jump, and then he was silent.

He is the strongest Blade Master in the Netherworld - although he is a Blade Eater in the guise of a Blade Master, but leaving aside the extremely few special beings such as the True and Heaven's Holy Grail, and including the bunch of Man-Eating Races, Sieg can still be called the strongest - he can even defeat such an opponent without making a fuss, so one can imagine the strength of this man.

Not to mention the method of moving by tearing a crack out of thin air, which Kagutsuchi could not see through at all, not to mention the companions of this person whose movement trajectory could not be captured. She could not imagine why such a group of people would quietly emerge in the netherworld - even the current Ira leader Zhen and Mie, who were causing trouble in one place, had been recorded since five hundred years ago. Only this group of people did not know where they came from... It was very puzzling.

Kagutsuchi still put on a bit more alert than the standard value, while Meleve faced Saki, standing with her hands behind her back. A sharp light flashed in her hawk-like eyes under her military cap, and she said:

"Before we begin this conversation, we would like to confirm the safety of Mr. Sieg and Mr. Fang Le Noren."

"Hmm? Didn't you notice when you came here?"

Master Melefu and his servant looked at each other and followed the direction of Saki's gaze, only to see a one-eyed sturdy man walking out of the shaded woods below. A black-haired priestess holding a crystal Zen staff was standing at the edge of the mountain path, gazing at the scenery in the distance that seemed like something they would never get tired of seeing.

The Saint of Arcadia, and the Prince of Losulia. Although I don't know whether the Saint was killed and retuned, since the Thunderbolt Sieg is currently at peace with the other party, I think there is no big problem. I just don't know why the former acted together with the group of people who kidnapped her, and why the latter did not choose to take the former away, but instead took himself in.

"...If the cooperation goes smoothly, I and Lady Melev will probably join in, right?"

Kagutsuchi raised her eyebrows slightly, not thinking of words like Calabash Brothers saving Grandpa, she was just simply thinking - such a mysterious and powerful new force, bringing together the Holy Grail of Heaven that almost destroyed the world five hundred years ago and its new Blade Master, Arcadia's Blade of the Holy See of MacPenny, the Saint of the Church, the Prince of Losuria, the strongest Blade Master of the Netherworld, and the Archon of Spebbia, Meleph, who they wanted to win over in their plan. Three of the core figures of the four poles of the Netherworld were included here, how big a deal is this going to be?

Mellove also thought of this, and considering the seemingly absurd content in the letter, it seemed somewhat credible at this moment. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Saki again, but saw that the other party casually opened the hideous crack, stuck his head in and said something, then walked to the side of the crack and made an inviting gesture, which made Mellove's eyelids twitch.

Although she can be labeled as a rare female general and a woman who is as brave as men, as if she can completely tear off the words "weak" and "delicate" that are inherently associated with women, she is still a girl after all. She will dress up in private and still have a physical aversion to certain things.

For example, this place looked like it had nothing to do with the righteousness, it was hideous and ugly, and it was filled with cracks called the great terror of the unknown. Melev's face showed a hint of retreat, but she still gritted her teeth, and was led by Kagutsuchi's hand and walked in together.

In a corner of this dark little space, two devices were connected in parallel by a strange device, like two high-tech gas tanks with strange shapes. With a clear humming sound, they quickly spit out the contents, filling this narrow space.

......

In the original story, Meleve, like Sieg, was a watcher of the Blade Masters of the Holy Grail represented by different forces for at least a long time. From the beginning, few people believed in Paradise except Rex and Homura. What these two adults did was just to watch over the newly born Blade Masters and behead them before they went crazy and blew up the only remaining shelter for humans... Of course, just like the traditional adventure story, they joined the team with a different heart, but after a series of things happened, the teammates who were not bad by nature finally recognized the protagonist and completely returned to their hearts.

But compared to Mellove, Sieg has been in the netherworld for a long time, so his mindset is not that of a "prince" but a traditional "adventurer". In addition, due to his personality, he naturally identifies with the young man named Lex, whose mindset is still a bit immature. And what about Mellove? As the most complicated member of the salvation team, she has to consider her homeland and her brother as the king. Why did she temporarily put aside her original responsibilities and principles and choose to lend a hand to Lex and others?

On the one hand, he almost witnessed the entire first half of Lex's trip, but the bigger breaking point came from a slightly stupid "accident", which made Boss Lex and others inexplicably given a favor card, which was then taken away and used by Melve... Of course, it is not ruled out that this imperial governor, like Sieg, developed a sense of responsibility like "as an elder, I have to take care of these troublesome young people" after getting to know each other. That breaking point was just a cause and a catalyst.

However, that "accident" could not happen again. Although the current situation of Sieg and Kasumi had eliminated the only part of Melev's hostility towards them to a certain extent, if they wanted this iron-faced and impartial imperial governor to become a caring and good sister to Lex and others like in the original book, they would inevitably need to provide her with a more powerful "catalyst".

It is impossible to use the emotional card to win the heart, at least it will not be as powerful as in the original novel, so I have to use something else to get through this period, such as...

"In summary,"

Standing in front of a group of teachers and students, Saki coughed lightly and said:

"We must go to Spebbia first."

Others: “???????”

What the hell is this summary you're making? Just say it!

......

This episode is about Higurashi Taiyoten_(:3」∠)_

Tieping, you are so gentle

Volume 590: Return to the Netherworld, the Day of Saving the World: Chapter Chapter : Have you considered building a rail elevator?

The world is dying.

Ever since the Holy Grail War five hundred years ago, when three super-large Arus including the ancient kingdom of Ira were sunk, the cycle chain of the Netherworld seemed to have been cut off. New super-large Arus were no longer born, and the old Arus withered and died one by one - Arus would die of old age. These behemoths that have existed in the world since the beginning of the Netherworld civilization will have their lifespans come to an end one day. Even if this time is so long that it is difficult to measure, the signs have already appeared.

Known as the granary of the netherworld and famous for its fertile land, the harvest of Gula Territory, which Spebbia and Invidiare fought so hard to get, has been falling off a cliff for several consecutive years. The resources in Invidiare have been consumed to a precarious point. The temperature of Spebbia Arus is rising year by year...

It was as if the abnormal changes were intended to drive away the humans who were living on it and were insensitive to environmental changes.

It's just like modern people predict that the sun will go out in billions of years, but their generation just happened to catch up with this time... Although it's unlucky, it's time to stop complaining and find a way to survive.

"So, have you considered paradise?"

"paradise?"

In the dim space, Melev put down the unknown drink provided by Saki, frowned slightly, and looked as surprised as if the Speaker of the United Nations General Assembly suddenly pulled everyone to watch Gundam and called on all countries to build orbital elevators.

What kind of crazy dreams are you having?

Even with Melleve's self-control, she was speechless for a long time. After calming down her wildly fluctuating heart, she suppressed her twitching mouth and asked:

"Well, are you talking about the paradise located on top of the World Tree in the legend?"

It's like when we are talking about environmental issues and suddenly someone comes out and says to control the meat, eggs and milk consumed by the Chinese... The two are at different levels, but the results are similar, that is, no one knows what the person who said this is feeling, but at least the listeners feel embarrassed, as if they have seen a wise man and are hesitating whether to point this out directly.

However, in line with the idea that as long as I am not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed, Saki remained calm throughout the whole process and smiled calmly:

"Is there any other choice? Spebia, Invidiale, and Gura are about to die. The Liberaritus Islands, Arcadia, and other small and medium-sized Arus cannot support so many refugees. The environments in Losulia and Tanpelantia are worse than the others. Right now, apart from the illusory 'paradise', do the people of the netherworld have any other hope?"

"..."

Melev and Kagutsuchi were silent at the same time, feeling a little embarrassed to say it, it seemed that apart from this paradise that was regarded as a myth, the people of the underworld really had no other way out.

This is really embarrassing, but there is nothing we can do about it.

This civilization has only developed for more than 4,000 years. Such a short period of time is not enough for this civilization that was born and developed with the help of Arus to figure out the means to continue to reproduce without Arus. It is like a civilized society that has not even built ships and suddenly encounters a world-destroying disaster of a huge rise in global sea levels. Apart from vague fantasies, they are helpless.
