Chris's Faith of Fire

No, he must not have this free time, and it couldn't be his mother. It was probably August who gave the missing person order.

Thinking of this, Noelle had to break his original plan to inform his sister. He passed in front of the mercenaries on the first floor. Although they had often focused on Noelle before and often made things difficult for him, but That was definitely different than what's going on now.The leading mercenaries, thieves in light clothes, and battle wizards all cast disgusted looks, and completely separated Noelle from their circle. That was because Noelle could no longer be regarded as a friend. They have the same meaning as mercenary adventurers.

After waking up Sylvie and informing her of the situation, Sylvie just rubbed her eyes lightly and didn't seem to have slept well.

"No need to make a fuss, Noel, we don't need to please those guys. They are old, weak, and have no achievements at all. Getting along with them is a mistake in itself."

"That's too much, Xi'er! We are not very powerful people, so we shouldn't discriminate against mercenaries."

"It's not discrimination, it's just that they are just such little people, and it's annoying to waste any time."

Sylvie did not hide her disdain at all. She changed her clothes in front of Noelle. Her brother would always turn away at this time.Sylvie, on the other hand, kept changing directions, as if she wanted Noelle to see her body.

"One more thing, Noelle...don't leave me alone next time."

Noel didn't react to Sylvie's words for a moment, and it wasn't until his sister put the dagger on her belt that he realized it was a protest against him leaving without permission in the morning.

Today, they still accepted the commission to hunt monsters. After continuous accumulation, their reputation in the Adventurer Association has risen, and they will soon be able to accept more difficult commissions.

A high-difficulty hunting mission can earn several gold coins at a time, and a super-difficult mission can instantly give civilians enough money to buy a castle. There is a very strange content in today's mission.There is only a seabird pattern drawn on the commission paper, but the hiring fee is very high, and it is paid on a monthly basis. In this way, you are not like a soldier in a mercenary station at all, but more like a clerk in a food store. .

The brother and sister spent the whole day fighting monsters as usual. I don't know if it was because of the actual battle with human warriors last night. Today, Sylvie and I looked much more skilled in our movements. Our efficiency throughout the day was much higher than usual. I always feel that everything I do becomes easier.Until dusk, the two of them had been doing subjugation missions and collecting valuable materials from monsters. The brother and sister who were not used to this work before have become proficient enough today. Even if they are blindfolded, they know how to sell monsters. Offered a higher price.

"It's time to go back, Xi'er."

"Okay, Noelle."

The two people quickly put the materials back into the prepared luggage. Because today's collection was the teeth and claws of monsters, they specially prepared double-thick leather bags. This can be regarded as the experience of adventurer mercenaries.

As before, when they walked out of the forest and arrived at the city wall of Gran, knights wearing embroidered robes stood guard in front of the city gate. They were dressed exactly the same as the knight who called himself Taylor yesterday, and Taylor was also standing today. Among the knights in front of the door, this time he arrived with his sword.

When they returned to the city, this scene appeared in front of their eyes.

"Hello everyone, it's been a hard day, Master Noelle, Miss Sylvie..."

The middle-aged knight Taylor, who was talking to his brothers and sisters in the mercenary station's tavern yesterday, stepped forward and saluted Noelle. He didn't seem to lie about the identity of the knight. The people in front of him were obviously the defenders of the city. There were several people. Noelle has also seen it on the street.

The word "young master" attracted the young man's attention. It seemed that he noticed that the boy in front of him was shocked by his words. Taylor smiled and then raised his head.

"Master Noel Inkaroz Shahavier and Miss Sylvie Anemene Shahavier, the Dark Blue Knights have been waiting here for a long time."

After hearing this, Sylvie's face showed displeasure.

"It's so confusing! Have you checked our details?"

"I dare not do this... However, after all, the two of them are children of a great noble. Considering their appearance, it is not surprising that someone in our group knows about them."

At this time, Noelle recalled what the mercenaries said in the morning. When he asked for compensation, their attitude was very surprising. Was this also because the knight in front of him told them his identity?

Although she was not too happy about such a good idea, Noelle still tolerated it and waited for her sister to finish her words.

"So, you want to send us back to Sestotia?"

Sylvie asked. Her words had always been full of aggression, and today they were even more aggressive. Cold sweat broke out on Noel's forehead, for fear that her sister would cut off a few fingers on impulse again.

The middle-aged knight leader silently lowered his head, calmly facing the girl's fierce tone without any intention of getting angry.

"I don't mean that, my lords. In fact, Sestotia is facing the slaughter of the Demon King's army now, so you two are safe here."

"Mr. Taylor, do you want to protect us?"

Noelle spoke before his sister. He was afraid that Sylvie would do something if the conversation continued.

"Master Noelle and Miss Sylvie are both smart people. For people of your status wandering around, we, as members of the Kingdom's knights, naturally have to provide appropriate help."

"Oh, and what's the price?"

Hearing Sylvie's stubborn questioning, the middle-aged knight just shook his head.

"It's our duty."

"Hmph, I think you are just taking the opportunity to please our father."

The girl's tone had been merciless from the beginning of the conversation, and the knight seemed to be completely used to it.

"Everyone in the Gilkern Kingdom is in danger now. Of course we must try our best to unite our forces. I'm very sorry... The battle in Mount Feas is fierce now. If anything happens to the Duke, Master Noel in front of you will be the only heir. At that time, you must shoulder your responsibilities as a noble of the kingdom.”

Noblesse Duty?Noelle thought of the education she received when she was young.

The lord exists to protect his people, and at the same time he must be loyal to the king. This agreement is witnessed by the gods and will last until death.

Noelle resonated with his words, but it was obvious that she went out just to follow Chris’s footsteps.Otherwise, he should still be swinging the sword repeatedly in Sestotia's mansion now. After all, other than his parents, they would not let him really go to meet the enemy.

"So if Sylvie and I join you, what will we need to do?"

"No need for anything, the Dark Blue Knights will prepare rooms and food for you two, and will also tell you some latest information."

"If you are willing to find someone for me, I will agree!"

"Noelle..."

Sylvie understood what her brother was thinking, but she hesitated to say what she wanted to say.

"Okay, but don't know who you are looking for?"

Noelle thought again and again, and finally raised her lips slightly.

"Garnet's second princess, Crystal Rubiel Macefield, she is my fiancée."

The person in front of them cannot be completely trusted, but for the brothers and sisters who have almost lost hope, this is probably the last resort.

Chapter 109 109. Compassion——1

Praying to the sky on the other side has become a compulsory course every day.

Although there are times when I forget.

Is it because I have begun to forget what happened that day?The destruction of the country had a great impact on me, but it was not to the point where I would be completely devastated by it.

It's incredible that I have no desire to avenge my mother or sister...

Even if I want to take revenge, I can't achieve it. I am so weak and have no power or followers.

No, the followers have a…

Looking behind him through the mirror, a black-haired boy stood there. He put on a majestic knight uniform, which made his even straight facial features look more distinct.

"Chris, why have you been ignoring me?"

There was a hint of anger in the boy's voice. Things he took for granted didn't turn out as expected. In this case, people can easily get angry.

"You shouldn't be here, Fami..."

I was very tired and just wanted to finish my daily work. Faced with Fami's overly obvious pursuit, I no longer knew how to reply.Moreover, he killed the Wasp before and dedicated the head to Duke Asha... Although I don't have a good impression of the Wasp, in my heart I still can't believe all this...

That Fami, although a little stubborn, was still kind in my heart. When that clumsy and gentle boy threw the wasp's head in front of Asha and me, my impression of him was completely shattered.

All he did was to become Duke Asha's bodyguard, and his cold expression made people feel scared.

"I came here just to see you!"

Miss Lola came to the Duke's Castle last week and confirmed the current situation with her.

The thieves organization was in chaos after losing the Wasp. At this time, Chijiu, who had been fully prepared, took over the entire organization, from the somewhat dirty sewers to the hotels, taverns, brothels in the city... all these sites are now Belongs to the red-haired female thief and her henchmen.

She is now urging me to get close to the thief cadre "Momon Rat" who was previously imprisoned by the Duke as soon as possible.

It sounds simple, but how to do it specifically...

At this time, Fami came to my side. I thought it was Chijiu's order, but in the end I found out that it was just because he wanted to see me for such a willful reason.

Now I almost don’t understand Fami and Akagi.

Why on earth am I doing all this...I never thought I would go so deep into the dark side of this world.

Duke Asha is a good person, but his brain is not very good. Due to my position, I have to use him.

Deceiving this stupid fat man always makes my conscience ache. This feeling is the same as when Fami threw the head of the Wasp in front of us. The Wasp was not a simple villain. He once showed his behavior in front of me. It's just that as a father's tenderness, after learning that he lost his daughter... I felt compassion for him without knowing it.

However, in the end, I only saw a cloth bag full of blood. At that time, I almost felt sick and wanted to vomit...

I'm afraid that Duke Asha will encounter this kind of fate in the future after trusting me, and the person who will do it must be Chijiu or Fami.

What kind of people are they? Is killing really that simple?

Especially people who have contact with me...

I took a breath and turned my head to face Fami with difficulty.

"Fami, I want to be alone now...please."

With a tone like pleading, all I can say now is that this boy has changed before I knew it and became strange to me.

"What's wrong? If you have anything, tell me."

He came closer step by step, and every step he took made my heart beat rapidly.

"...It's nothing...come here..."

"Ok?"

The outstretched fingers were about to touch my shoulders.

"Don't come here!"

With a snap, I raised my hand and waved away the boy's fingers.

I didn’t think much about it at all, it was just an instinctive reaction... Now even if Duke Asha touches me, I probably won’t react so violently.

"Sorry, Master Asha still needs my help on official business, Fami... let's talk about it next time."

Grabbing the wrist I had just raised, I walked out of the room where I lived with Rebekah and Mel, leaving Fami behind.Although Rebekah and Mel are not here now, this is essentially a place where girls from Duke Asha's harem can come. If Fami comes here and is seen by someone...

As long as I'm not here, he won't stay long.

◆ ◇

After leaving the big room, I came to the office. Today, the Duke was actually standing at the door, as if waiting for someone.

"Ah, Chris, you are finally here~"

"Are you waiting for me? Lord Asha."

After a month, Duke Asha finally gave up the title of Master Chris. It was great...it was not good to be heard by others, but he had no intention of taking my virginity by force, because I A story is changed. This person may be a very kind guy.

"Yes, something happened today."

"matter?"

I always feel bad about his mysterious look. Master Asha rarely shows this kind of expression. He usually writes his thoughts on his face, making it easy for people to guess.

"Well, I think Chris' ability might come in handy in this matter, so come with me if you can."

"My ability?"

What capabilities do I have?Can you sing more than 50 game theme songs?

I was suddenly told something like this and couldn’t figure it out.

"Anyway, come along."

The mysterious words made it difficult for me to ask further questions, so I followed his footsteps.Passing through the long corridor in the center, I always knew the way until the middle, but today Asha-sama did not go to the church on the west side for worship or the library on the south side. Instead, she went straight from the end of the corridor to East side...

After walking for a while, another corridor appeared in front of me. If I remember correctly, this corridor is connected to...

"Lord Asha...we are going..."

"A tower where sinners are imprisoned."

"Eh?"

The Duke's short answer shocked me.

According to the information provided by Miss Lola and the information I obtained in the castle, the thief "Flying Squirrel" should be imprisoned here.

But what Asha-sama means when I say my ability can be put to use is...

I didn't dare to ask, but he just grinned when he heard my surprise.

"Aren't you the best at this kind of thing? It's not suitable for you to sit there and deal with documents all the time, Chris~"

what!

Could it be that it was discovered that I was also one of the thieves?
