Chris's Faith of Fire

"I have been a mercenary for so many years, so I have traveled a lot. Firmina also knows this road."

At night, we started another combat meeting in the room, and Fami and Alyssa also came.

The two of them were sitting next to each other, and I looked away at the remaining members.

"Where are Firmina and Gillian."

"I have no objection~Princess, Ryder has much more experience than me. He is definitely an excellent guide." Firmina replied with a smile. I looked at Gillian again, and she immediately tilted her head. , as if they dare not look at me.

"I...I don't really want to be here anymore. There are no books..."

Wizard girls only care about magic-related things, but it's a pity that Parthia doesn't have any wizard companions or magic books.I heard that most of them are warriors. They are proud of their excellent archery and swordsmanship, and at the same time they do not pay so much attention to the elegance, practicality and agility of swordsmanship as the biggest criteria for orc warriors.

Fermina nodded.

"Princess, in this case, I suggest that everyone rest now. We set out in the early morning. That is when the expedition team rests. We don't have to be afraid even if there are pursuers."

"I agree with her, especially Fami, you are the ace."

Ryder also echoed the beast girl, while smiling and casting his eyes on Fami.

"I do not need……"

"He's right, go and rest soon, Fami."

"Chris..."

I don't want to look at him, my chest hurts when I see him.

I am the commander of this team and the princess of the Kingdom of Fire. I cannot focus on just one boy. Of course I know this, but I can't force myself not to think about it.

Just hearing his voice bothers me.

"Chris, we should talk."

Alyssa also said to me.

Now what does she mean when she says this to me?

Talk, talk about what?Do you want me to stay away from Fami or do you want to tell me that you have become lovers?

You can do whatever you like with that kind of thing. Do you still need me to say congratulations?

Although the knight girl didn't say anything, I still felt that my bottom line was being challenged. I looked away from the two of them and focused my eyes on the map in front of me.

"If you have anything to say, say it now."

"We need to communicate alone..."

"We are a team and there is nothing we need to communicate individually."

Perhaps her voice had an angry tone unconsciously, and Fermina sighed.

Ryder looked very interested in this matter, while Jillian looked impatient and wanted to leave.

"But Chris..."

"Don't question me!" I felt like I could hardly control my emotions, and finally I took a deep breath to hold back. "The plan has been decided. Everyone, please go back and rest... After arriving in Parthia, I will discuss the approach based on the replies from the orcs. Ryder, Gillian, Fermina, I will prove to you There’s no wrong choice.”

"Haha, I rarely make wrong choices. Just following the princess with the holy sword may have left a mark in history." Ryder joked. He is a standard adventurer mercenary. I must always pay attention to him.

"Me too, princess... Now just the holy sword in our hands can give us a lot of support."

Everything has two sides, and I believe it attracts more than just support.

"Big library..."

Gillian’s sudden words after following Firmina left people confused.

"Ok?"

"Afterwards, Chris will build me a big library...so I promise to follow you."

Ah, by the way, this kid didn't say he wanted to follow me before, he just said he would consider it.

"After everything succeeds, I will not be stingy. Of course, there is also the possibility of failure. Are you really willing to follow me? Gillian."

"Well...investments are risky, and I'm willing to take a risk."

"In this case, today's meeting is over. From now on, the meeting will be held once a week. If there is an emergency, it will be convened immediately. I hope that before long our meeting will no longer be in such a small room, but on the round table in front of the throne."

Everyone nodded silently, and Alyssa and Fami seemed to take back what they wanted to say.

They each went back to their rooms, and I went to the roof and looked at the double moons in the sky.

I used to often come to the roof, with Chijiu...or Fami next to me.

I was pressed under him on the roof of the dilapidated church. My breathing became rapid and I couldn't stop panting. Probably because as a girl, I couldn't resist the tough posture of the boy. For a moment, I felt that even if I was The scary thought that it's okay to be there.

"As expected, you can't be cautious as a girl."

As for men, there is no guarantee at all... Is it so easy for them to change their minds?

While sighing, there was another breath approaching from behind.

"It's a bad habit to always approach people from behind, Firmina."

"Oh? You actually found me. I thought my footsteps were already very light."

"If you really think so you should cast yourself a scout spell."

That is the spell I am good at. A thief must not only be nimble in his movements, but also learn to see all directions and listen in all directions.

"I haven't received much favor from Mana, so I can't use illusions."

According to Akabato, the beasts should have Mana scattered throughout their limbs. In this case, although their physical abilities are strong, it is difficult for them to use magic.

"I don't know if I have been favored..." With his back to Fermina, the autumn night wind is cool but not annoying. At night, there is still such a wind that can make people feel more comfortable.

“Everyone has a place where they have been blessed, but most people don’t realize it.”

"Is everyone the same... There are many unfortunate people in this world. Some of them have been plagued by misfortune since childhood, and they are accompanied by sorrow and lamentation until they die."

"Even that kind of life cannot be said to be meaningless. He always has a moment when he can smile."

"Okay, okay... don't say such things, tell me what you are here to do."

The truth is really annoying.

"I think you need help, princess. Your relationship with those two seems to be on the red line."

"I can handle it all..."

"Really? Then why are you sitting here? Solving is not escaping. Only by communicating with them well can we call it solving."

"I'm tired and not interested in their affairs."

"Although you don't want to say anything, princess, anyone can see that you like that wolf boy. Fami and Alyssa seem to have a good relationship recently. You must be worried about this matter."

"…Since you know, why do you need to ask more questions?"

I didn't bother to refute, as she said, I couldn't hide my concern for Fami.

Because along the way I understood how terrifying loneliness is, and how terrifying it is compared to any monster.Fami is the sustenance of my feelings, but now he has chosen another girl. If I continue to persist, there will definitely be no good results. In the morning, I was controlled by jealousy and said some inappropriate words to Alyssa. Now that I think about it, I feel really sad. People regret it endlessly.This team "Rhozolite Key" is my last hope, nothing can break it apart.

The silence lasted for a long time.

Alas, Fermina must have been disappointed too. She was obviously well-intentioned, but I poured cold water on her.

I'm a really bad emotionalist.

"Fei...huh?"

A pair of hands wrapped around my neck, and Fermina hugged me from behind.

Her body temperature was a little high, but she felt warm in the cool breeze.

"I'm here to tell you that we support you. This support is not only for our common cause, but also for our relationship. If everyone is suspicious of each other, someone will definitely betray you. How can you put your back behind someone who may betray you at any time?" How about leaving your back to him? That’s what the so-called comrades in arms are all about."

"Fermina..."

"What's wrong, Chrissy?"

He shook his head.

"Hmm...thank you."

"Hey, nothing."

Chapter 143 143. Jealousy in love——5

I stayed on the roof tonight, and there were crows making annoying cries at night.Alyssa and Fami didn't go back to the room either. The metallic sound of the two practicing swordsmanship in the open space behind the hotel was a bit noisy, but they were completely immersed in it without considering the feelings of others.The relationship seems so good, it really doesn't look like it just started getting better recently.

Looking from far above the roof, only the lights of the mercenary station were still on. Drunks were coming in and out. Sometimes you could hear quarrels and the sound of bones breaking. What were they arguing about?Maybe it's because of love worries like me?

Men are so good, they can resolve disputes with their fists.

I want to be a white kite flying into the sky, overlooking this land even in the dark night. The war between humans and demons has nothing to do with me. I want to glide under the moonlight and rest on the cliff, as long as I am not caught by humans and used to deliver messages. can be free forever.

"Aren't you going to sleep yet, little princess?" Firmina seemed to have been standing behind me for a long time, and her patience was much better than I thought.

"I am not sleepy."

"Eating, sleeping, and having sex are the three things that a human being cannot live without."

"Animals can't live without it, and unlike animals, we can restrain our desires."

After I said that, I regretted it. It seemed inappropriate to mention animals in front of an orc girl. I looked back at Fermina. Fortunately, she was not angry because of my words.

"sorry, I do not have……"

I didn’t mean to disparage the Orcs or Fermina.

"I know that you are already upset right now. It is my task at the moment to help you ease your mood a little bit."

I can't deny what she said. Now I am deeply confused. Fami's shackles lock my heart tightly. Even if I say I don't care, I can't completely put aside all this and be a competent leader. Now I'm still too far behind.

Maybe I have to learn to put the overall situation first.

"Come to my room. Today, Jillian went to Ryder's room. Those two children look like they have to practice all night again. Although I don't suggest that they work so hard, everything they say now is in vain. "

Firmina took off her cloak and put it on my shoulders. Her thoughtfulness made her already cold body feel a bit of warmth. Let's set out in the early morning. I still need a good rest now.

After saying that, he followed her steps to the room.

I felt cold at night, and the girl held me in her arms with her slender body. I don’t know why everyone likes to do this. Queen Mother is like this, Sophie is like this, and now Firmina is like this too. She can hold me in her arms. The people in it always give me a special sense of peace of mind, as if I have returned to the cradle, to the age before I can remember it.

I am already the incarnation of Salamander, and I don’t want to show my weakness in front of others, but... if there is only one person, maybe it’s okay.

I soon fell asleep that night.

◆ ◇

We had assembled before the dawn light even climbed out of the winding mountains, and the most diligent businessman in the town did not come out to set up a stall. The hotel's account had been settled last night, and we were walking in the humidity of the morning light. The mount comes out of the stable.

"Everything is ready, do you need to confirm again?"

Ryder patted his backpack. It was full, and the dull sound told me that I was fully prepared.

No one seemed to hesitate anymore.

Alyssa and Fami still seem to be full of energy after practicing swordsmanship all night. Firmina yawned, but I know she slept well last night. She smiled when our eyes met, Gilly Ann always seemed like she didn't care at all. Anyway, I felt like we were ready to go.

Nodding to the five comrades, Fermina and I got on a horse, along with Fami and Alyssa... followed by Ryder and Gillian.

It’s the last time I saw this town. It hasn’t been long enough to make people reluctant to leave it, but it’s not like I’ll forget it.

The small town under the Hengyan Mountains maintains its own slow pace as if it is indifferent to the world. It is time to say goodbye to this place. After all, we cannot be confined to a small place forever.

"Then, let's go. You may not come back again. You should all be prepared."

"Mercenaries are at home everywhere." Ryder returned with a smile.

"Princess, you carry the hope of the entire continent. There is nothing more glorious than following you."

Fermina still showed the highest affection and obedience to me, while Gillian remained silent, but she didn't need to care as long as she didn't particularly object.

Finally, I focused on those two people.

“Wherever Chrissy goes, I go.”

"..."

Fami's answer was as firm as if he had done nothing wrong, while Alyssa also remained silent.

All confirmed.
