"So..."

With one last look in the direction of Torig Town, Saki turned around and looked at the mountain wall in the distance, in the direction of Lookout Hill, the only designated passage leading to the lower level of Gula, and also the place where Saki and Nia had passed a few days ago.

"Back to where the dream began~"

"Well..."

"what happened?"

“That’s a very good sentence…”

Nia looked at Saki with sidelong glances, with an indescribable awkwardness on her face.

"Why does it feel wrong when it comes out of your mouth, teacher?"

"Hahahahahaha, of course, it's right that something's wrong."

Nia: “…”

Well, it’s that weird talk again that she couldn’t understand... But it doesn’t matter, there is enough time left, and Nia believes that sooner or later she will be able to squeeze all the ink out of Saki’s stomach!

The two walked along the familiar road towards the place where they came to this world a few days ago, leaving behind a huge wolf corpse with its body bursting and blood splattered. Its dim eyes, unable to close, reflected the backs of the two people talking and laughing as they left. The armored wolf beast, which had all its vitality sucked out by Nia and should have died on the spot, had two bean-sized tears in its eyes, which mixed into its blood-stained fur and disappeared.

Not long after, several other armored wolves that had just gone to bury the bodies of their tribesmen finally arrived. They gathered in front of the already cold corpses and remained silent for a long time.

"Starting to move again?"

At one end of the Pioneer Bridge, after safely crossing the dilapidated but still sturdy wooden cable bridge, Baihu closed his eyes and sensed for a while, then opened his eyes and informed his teammates of what he had sensed. The other two and the dragon looked at each other, and Lex said uncertainly:

"Does this mean...that they are alright?"

"I encountered a monster on the way here and was delayed for a while... or something like that?"

"Don't be too happy! The possibility that he was forced by that group of people to come here is not completely zero."

"Grandpa, your paranoia is too serious!"

"What?!!!"

Qinglong was so angry that his own grandson commented on his prudence and kindness that he blew his beard and glared. He punched Lex's head with his little fists, making Lex scream. Yan smiled as he watched the intimate interaction between the grandfather and grandson. After watching for a while, he persuaded:

"No matter what, let's go over and check their condition first. It won't be too late to make plans later."

"Yeah, Homura is right!"

Qinglong: “???”

This...I haven't even entered the house yet, and my pig has already been led away by the cabbage. To be honest, a grandson who is married off is like water spilled!

Your elbow is turned outward!

The Qinglong became more and more angry as he thought about it. He raised his butt and slashed Lex's neck with his little tail.

"Ah~~~~! Grandpa!"

"Humph~"

......

"Hey~"

Someone casually threw the unconscious long-eared rabbit monster to the ground, and looked at the natural camping site and the small pond next to it, which seemed to be no different from when he left, and couldn't help but grin.

“After going around in circles, I ended up back here.”

"After all, the netherworld is so small, it's normal to wander around in familiar places~"

After five days, I was wearing different clothes, had different equipment, and even my mentality had changed significantly. If there was anything that hadn't changed, it was this campsite that had been used by few Gula residents in recent years, and the two people who came here. Although the time was short, revisiting the old place still made someone have some different thoughts, and I had an urge to be a literary youth in my heart.

Nia stretched lazily. Maybe it was because she had come to a familiar environment, but there was a hint of laziness in her voice and her expression was very relaxed.

"Most people in the Netherworld will live in one place for their entire lives unless something unexpected happens. But if a war breaks out, that's another story."

"That's the difference between my world and mine, but it doesn't seem so different? Hmm... What kind of life does Nia like?"

"me?"

Being asked suddenly, Nia twitched her ears and thought for a moment.

"As for me... although it's nice to see and learn a lot, I still don't really like running around."

"Where's the house cat~"

Saki instinctively teased, but the girl just rolled her eyes.

"What's wrong!"

"Nothing... Where's the White Tiger?"

"Um..."

Nia frowned slightly and sensed it, her eyebrows slightly raised.

"It's very close, and getting closer... Huh? Is it speeding up?"

"Feel the reason why we stopped."

It was unknown whether they were in sync, but he, Nia, and White Tiger, who was not sure if they had joined Lex and the others, stopped moving at almost the same time, and then started again at almost the same time, approaching each other. At this moment, it was reasonable for the other side to speed up their pace out of concern when they suddenly sensed that they had stopped. As a result, Saki was no longer in a hurry, and released the spiritual power that had been full on the road to his feet. Some small creatures hiding in the grass felt uncomfortable after sensing the slight vibration, and crawled towards the grass that was not covered by the spiritual power, leaving Saki a piece of clean land.

After finishing such tedious preliminary work, he sat down cross-legged on the spot, as if he was not the one who was in a hurry to meet up with Lex and his party before, which made Nia's eyebrows twitch wildly.

Are you assuming that Baihu must be with Lex and the others?

She always felt that this person had too much information, as if he had opened his eyes. For example, his real abilities, and the secret passage found in Torig Town... But now she didn't want to delve into it.

Don't go into it, don't think too much, just enjoy the convenience brought by Saki's prophetic nature. Thinking too much will only give you a headache... Of course, there is also a vague feeling that you have been cheated, and in order to prevent this feeling from becoming a reality, you deliberately don't think about it. At the moment, I just took a few pieces of firewood and smashed them to build a fire. Saki also skillfully skinned and gutted the long-eared rabbit monster weighing more than 30 kilograms. After washing it with some clean water gathered from Nia, he threw the rabbit into the sea of ​​clouds and started drinking blood. The so-called boiling and discarding the meat to drink the soup...

Pah, the blood-stained red water ball was thrown into the sea of ​​clouds, and a fire was quickly lit on the other side. The scorching flames licked the fat body of the rabbit monster, and as the temperature continued to rise, it gradually emitted a... strange smell, I don't know if it should be considered fishy or fragrant?

"...It might be better if I smoke it for a while, right?"

Looking at the fat and greasy rabbit meat, Saki swallowed his saliva and said uncertainly, feeling sad for the small bottle of mixed spices that had been buried in the sea of ​​clouds.

But fortunately, even if there is no seasoning in barbecue, as long as the taste of the ingredients themselves is not too scary, the taste will not be too bad after being smoked by wood smoke.

Facts have proved that Saki's idea is right. As time goes by, the fat from the barbecue falls into the campfire. The previous subtle smell has been covered by the rich meat aroma. The monsters in the nether world tell him with practical actions that after a long period of development, these edible monsters have evolved into a kind of food that does not need extra seasoning. Simple processing and its own taste are enough to become a delicious dish. The aroma of fat burned at high temperature wafts away, and even four "Gu~~~" sounds are heard in the bushes next to it. Even the trees are drooling at the aroma...

...Can the trees still drool and feel their stomachs rumbling with greed?

Saki's mouth curled up, and he almost laughed out loud, then... He used a strand of his spiritual power that was originally controlling the roasted rabbit to throw into the cloth bag beside him, grabbed something and flicked it, and with a swing of his right arm, he caught the Uzi that was thrown up by it, and without any hesitation, he pulled the trigger directly at the middle and lower part of the bush. The whole set of smooth operations was so smooth that even Nia, who was closest to him and could vaguely sense his thoughts, didn't react, and the deadly flame burst out from the muzzle!

Volume 105: Young Man, Young Girl and Precious First Time: Chapter Chapter Seduction

Da da da da da da da!!!

It was completely an instinctive and subconscious reaction. He could tell at a glance that there was no one in the bush! There was someone or something else in the bush. Saki opened his gun and fired fiercely. A string of high-speed rotating bullets carrying the kinetic energy that could instantly create a bowl-sized hole in a living organism instantly sank into the bush, and then-

boom!

"Wow!"

"what!"

The familiar light golden honeycomb-shaped spherical light shield was spread out in the bushes. The materialized protective shield pushed away the surrounding paper strips and bushes, and instantly opened a huge hole in the natural protective wall. The six or seven bullets fired by Saki fell on the light shield and immediately made a clanging sound. Some of them sank into the ground, or flew through the bushes on the side into the sea of ​​clouds and disappeared. After the ripples caused by the bullets dissipated, the two people in the camp were able to see several faces under the protective shield.

The first thing that caught my eye was the red-haired girl who was still as dazzling as a torch in the night, dressed better than Nia and had a better figure, and the striped tiger beside her. The frightened boy stood behind the man and the tiger, and the fear on his face gradually faded. He stared blankly at the two people by the campfire in the camp. The two sides looked at each other, and then...

""Lex/White Tiger?!""

""Miss Saki!""

The ones who came out from the bushes were the White Tiger and Lex who were being missed by someone!

......

"Really? Don't just pull out your gun and shoot all of a sudden!"

Still feeling a little scared, Lex sat cross-legged on the other side of the campfire, staring at Saki with a smirk on his face with some dissatisfaction.

They had probably arrived a while before the aroma of Saki's barbecue wafted out, but they didn't say anything directly. After all, Qinglong kept emphasizing the conspiracy theory and threat theory along the way, which made Lex and Yan subconsciously alert. While approaching secretly, they observed their surroundings, alert to the traces of Ira and his gang, for fear that the scene of Calabash Brothers saving their grandfather would be staged and all of them would be lost.

As a result, after squatting for a long time, the people of Ila did not see them. Instead, Saki was happily grilling meat. They had not eaten anything at night, so the smell of meat naturally made them greedy. It was okay to be greedy. After observing for so long, Saki and the others did not seem to be held hostage. They also had the intention to come out, and then...

This guy just opened fire!

Isn't it normal for a normal person to draw their sword, get into a fighting stance, and then yell "Who is it?" Why did you just open fire?!

Aren't you afraid of accidentally hurting innocent passers-by or friendly forces? ! !

"Well, I heard some strange noises and thought it was a hungry monster lurking in the dark~"

Saki coughed awkwardly. In fact, his brain hadn't thought of this yet. He was just alert to the strange sound. Unexpectedly, his body moved first and pulled out his gun to shoot without any hesitation. We can only be thankful that the Blades' reaction speed is faster than that of ordinary people. White Tiger and Flame are the best and ceiling among the Blades. They were able to defend themselves immediately even though they didn't expect Saki's sudden attack and were more than a beat slower. If it weren't for them, Lex and the others would probably have holes in their legs, right?

Hmm...it seems that Saki's 'subconscious' had actually considered the possibility that these people might be Lex's 'friendly forces' when he was shooting, and he deliberately lowered the shooting angle. After all, as long as they were not killed on the spot, Nia would be able to heal them all.

But the result was obvious. He had overestimated the power of the Uzi again.

This gun seemed to be the legendary 'gun of no killing' and 'gun of peace'. Even though it launched a surprise attack in a way that no one expected, it still - didn't hit a single person!

Not to mention whether he was killed or not, we fired a string of bullets but not even a drop of blood was seen!

Why keep it? Throw it away... No, at least I bought it with money. Find a craftsman to melt it down and make a small knife for him to control with spiritual power. It will be more useful than shooting directly, right?

Saki was frantically thinking about how to maximize the value of this gun while also relieving his frustration. The boy and girl across the fire blushed at the same time. Homura turned away awkwardly, muttering in a low voice:

"Strange noise..."

The corner of Lex's mouth twitched. He touched the back of his head and also looked up - at the bushes.

"Hungry monster..."

It's not their fault. Let's not talk about Yan first. Lex, like Saki, hasn't eaten anything since he was awakened by the bell. Although he had rested a bit before, he didn't dare to eat the creatures living in the swamp, so he is still hungry. Saki, who also walked through the Forgotten Land, saw the reaction of the two and immediately understood. He shook his head and said:

"That's not a good mentality, young man. When surviving in the wild, sometimes you even have to eat insects to stay alive."

Nia: “…”

What is this person talking about? He is so afraid of insects that he has to use his strength to shoo away the insects on the ground before sitting down. Now he dares to say "eat insects"?

Nia was complaining in her heart, but Lex didn't know about these things. Instead, he looked thoughtful.

"Hmm... That's right. After all, I've eaten the insect monsters in the sea of ​​clouds before. I think they should be no different from the ones living on Arus' back, right?"

Saki: "...I think the difference is still a bit big."

Well, the fake Langhuo met the real Langmie. Saki was speechless just because of his self-talk during thinking. Nia on the side covered her mouth and laughed, her shoulders trembling wildly. She successfully attracted the attention of two people and two beasts including Baihu. After staring at them for a long time, Lex suddenly realized.

"Huh? Huh, huh, huh??? You are a Blade?!"

"Too slow, you're just reacting now?"

“Eh? So, Saki is also, no, Saki is the Blade Master? Then the White Tiger—”

"My lady is indeed my Blade Master, there is no doubt about that."

The white tiger crawling beside Nia raised its head and uttered a deep and steady bass voice. It was so serious that it was obviously not fake, which made Lex a little dizzy.

"So...the Blade is the Blade's Blade Master?"

"Although the actual situation is a bit complicated, this is roughly what it means. I just learned about this matter."

Saki spread his hands, and said in a nonchalant manner:

"But it's all thanks to Nia. Otherwise, even if I managed to escape this time, I probably wouldn't have survived."

"...?"

With a little empathy, Nia realized something was wrong. She folded her big furry ears but didn't say anything.

Volume 106: Young Man, Young Girl and the Precious First Time: Chapter Chapter : Selling Misery

Nia noticed someone's intention and retreated decisively, but Lex was very straightforward and jumped into the pit that Saki had kicked out of nowhere, and took over the conversation on the spot and asked:

"Oh, I forgot to ask you just now. How did you escape from those guys? And... why are you half-naked?"

"Hmm? Do you suspect that we are in league with those guys?"

Nia frowned. Although she knew someone was deliberately guiding her, she didn't like the questioning of the sacrifices that Saki and she had made. She didn't care about seduction or not, and jumped into the trap. She glared at Lex fiercely, causing the boy to wave his hands repeatedly and hurriedly explained:

"No, I didn't mean that, I just..."
