Chris's Faith of Fire

"Don't move, I've been eyeing you for a long time... lovely young lady." His voice was low and muddy, and I could hear the desire that was about to burst out of his voice.

How could it be that several people had come to this cabin just now but did not find him? Did they ambush him in this cabin a long time ago?

For what reason? Is it just to do something inappropriate to me? This reason is really ridiculous!

But after thinking about it, I had been taking Haka and Noelle with me when I came to this ship. Of course, I relaxed my vigilance and didn't pay attention to the surrounding environment. I didn't expect that there was such a thing lurking. cabin.

Is he really human?It's still a monster... But now I can't see him, and I don't dare to look back. This man feels more like a monster condensed with pure malice. He suddenly appeared from the darkness and attacked from behind. At that moment My heart seemed to stop and my body temperature dropped.

Is this another nightmare?

But the obvious touch on my body told me that it was reality...perhaps more terrifying than a nightmare.

The sharp dagger he held tightly in his left hand threatened my life, and his right hand went back and forth on my body...

He wanted to shout to draw away the reinforcements, but no sound came out.

Salamander!

...There is no response, is it because the body is too weak now to summon this power?

My mind was running wildly, thinking of self-rescue methods one after another, but they were rejected by me. After all, the dagger lying in front of me was enough to make me dare not resist easily.

No... I have to find a way... I am Crystal, the incarnation of the Fire Elf, the second princess of Garnet, the Queen of Fire!How could I be treated by such a bastard in a place like this...

Even if it's an illusion, just using a little bit of it can make this guy lose his accuracy. It only takes a second for me to counterattack, and the results of my training as a thief are not unfamiliar.

But the moment he raised his hand, the man whose face I couldn't see seemed to notice something, and brought the dagger closer. The cold blade kissed the neck, and with a little more force, he could cut it open.

His legs were weak and had no strength, and his lower body seemed to be paralyzed and completely unable to move.

It was at this time that I realized how weak and powerless I was... Just a blade that could be seen everywhere could make me unable to resist, and the incarnation of the Fire Elf that the orcs worshiped was just such an existence... It was really bad Thoroughly.

After all, I can't vent his desire with one hand. As long as the blade is put down, I will have a chance.

As long as I make a little noise, the Guards and Noelle will come to rescue me, but the prerequisite is that I must first come into contact with the threat to my life, otherwise... if my throat is slit by this thing, everything will be over, whether it is hopes, ideals, future.

Or endure the humiliation and wait for him to finish?But that doesn’t guarantee that he won’t kill me later.

If I hadn't been sick, this bastard would have been burned to ashes by Salamander's power in an instant, and there would be no room for him to be so presumptuous.

But there is no what-if in the cold reality.

Help me... I can only pray softly in my heart, hoping that someone will pass by and open the hatch.

Reluctant tears flowed down his cheeks and fell on the man's hands, but he was completely unmoved, and instead covered his hands tighter.

help me!

Guards!

They were just ordered to leave by me...

Noelle!

No...he won't be back for a while.

Finally, when the man started to take off my clothes, the blade deviated slightly from its original trajectory.

At this moment, he seemed to use all his strength to kick the floor hard with his legs, making a thumping sound.

Almost within a second, the man's dagger was raised again, and this time the blade grazed my cheek, bringing out a trace of bright red.

"Stop resisting in vain...I will really kill you next time...As for me, I don't care even if it's a corpse."

I'm speechless.

He was not joking, the unreasonable threats and attacks, the malice that emerged from the depths of his soul spread in an instant, and there was nothing he could do about it.

help me!

Fami! !

Snapped--

With a crisp sound, the man stopped suddenly, like a clockwork doll that had lost its power, and then fell to the floor with another muffled thud.

I fell to the ground and my eyes subconsciously turned to the place where the sound came from.

He has short black hair, an adventurer's leather armor, tired eyes but an obviously angry face, and a black pearl scabbard tightly held in his hand.

"Are you okay! Chrissy!"

He nervously ran to me and supported my body.

Am I...am I dreaming?

The tears in my eyes kept flowing and I couldn't stop them. I held Fami's shoulders tightly.

"Why are you here now! My little wolf!"

Her chin couldn't help but rest on his right shoulder, and she spoke such unreasonable words.

"Your Majesty... everything is a crime committed by our negligence. Please grant me death."

The guards knelt down in front of me one by one, lined up in a neat row, and raised their scimitars high above their heads, and sent them to me, begging for punishment.The soldiers who were supposed to be guarding the door of the cabin were attracted by the murlocs who attacked at night. This kind of monster is a little shorter than an adult man and moves very quickly. When killing people, they will use their long and sharp claws. Tear the prey's throat, and because of this, I missed the best opportunity to rescue me in the first place.

Haka and other personal guards saw that the mercenaries on the bow of the ship were attacked by murlocs in a half-asleep state. Naturally, they could not stand by and watch. The man who became a soldier under my command naturally regarded the monster as his mortal enemy. He led the few soldiers who followed him to fight fiercely with the monster. , while the rest stayed on the ship to rest.

I looked at the bloody fish head he put aside. The ferocious head gave off a pungent fishy smell. Although I didn't like the smell, I controlled myself from frowning.One should not show disgust at the trophies gained by warriors' heroic battles.

"You are not guilty, it is my own fault. It was just a minor illness that made me so miserable. I am really ashamed."

"Your Majesty, but..." He wanted to say something more, but I held out a hand to stop him. "Only by living can you help me fulfill my unfinished ideal. Why are you following me and Lord Brave? Do you just want me to help you handle the funeral arrangements on this large piece of rotten wood?" No. He consciously raised his voice, making his vocal cords hoarse, and the wound scratched by the strange man's knife was still aching.

The man was now tied up and fixed to a pillar nearby. He looked ferocious, shirtless, and looked to be in his forties or fifty. He looked like an elderly sailor. Haka suspected that he was one of the crew members, but the captain was determined. Deny this. "He was just a homeless man who climbed into the lady's room at some point. I am deeply sorry for the consequences."

This sentence was completely unconvincing, and even Haka could hear the evasion in it. His eyes widened, and he wished he could tear the captain into pieces like grilled lamb chops on the grassland in the next second.

"I will kill him on your behalf. These two people obviously have the same smell. I want to see what color the base of his lying tongue is."

"Stop!" I reached out and held down his scimitar. "I haven't asked you to stand up yet, Hakkar."

"Yes, if I am asked to die as apology, I will gladly accept it!" For some reason, when he mentioned the four words "death as apology", his face shone with excitement and expectation, and he raised his scimitar again with both hands, as if Want me to kill him with this.

"I won't take your life...or other people's lives. Please, don't embarrass me. You all raise your heads and stand up. Pick up your weapons and take turns standing guard outside my room. Elsewhere. Our patrols can no longer be relaxed, our enemies may still be lurking in the water."

"terribly sorry……"

"By the way, except this guy, throw him into the sea to feed the fish."

I pointed to the middle-aged sailor tied to the mast.

After hearing this order, the corners of Haka's mouth gradually curved.

"Happy to be of service to you!"

"Wait, wait! Miss... I didn't mean to do it! I know I was wrong! Please show mercy! Wuwuwuwu——!"

Before he could say a few words, I heard a cry, and the orc warrior cut out this guy's tongue.

For a moment, the thought that this was too cruel and that I had done something wrong came to my mind.But soon, I shook my head and put this thought out of my mind.

"Let's deal with it quickly...his whining is too harsh."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

They obeyed my order and returned to their posts one by one, and then I only heard the sound of falling into the water, and gradually disappeared into the waves of the sea of ​​mist.

With a subtle sigh, I returned to my room, but before I could sit down, Fami and Noelle pushed open the door and rushed in almost at the same time.

"Chrissy!" "Chrissy!"

The two spoke in unison, and even their expressions were extremely synchronized.

Noel came to me first, with worry on his face. He stretched out his hand and began to chant: "prakaash ilaaj meree ghaav (Holy Light, please eliminate the pain of your people.)"

A faint white light appeared on my face, and I could feel the wound gradually healing. When I reached out and touched the scar, I found that it was intact as before, as smooth and white as a newborn baby.Even skin injuries can be completely healed in an instant, which is not something ordinary healers can do. Is this the power of light possessed by the brave?Such a powerful force will continue to grow stronger until it is enough to compete with the Demon King... When I think of this, I strengthen my belief even more.

The lies about Noelle must continue.

"Thank you very much, Noelle."

"No, there's no need to say this... This matter is my fault. It's all my fault for not taking good care of you."

"This is not your responsibility, Lord Brave." Fami couldn't help but get out from behind him and stand in front to confront him, "Kris is my princess and my queen, and it is my responsibility to protect her. "

"I will also protect her. Chrissy is my second wife." Noelle's eyes showed no sign of flinching, and he said unyieldingly.

Not to be outdone, Fami looked at him and frowned, "She's just a fiancée, Lord Brave..." He emphasized the pronunciation of the word fiancée... Something was wrong with the atmosphere.

However, Noelle shook his head. He took my left hand and revealed the ring on it.

"Chris has accepted my love. This task should be left to me. This is also my obligation. Fami, you should go back."

"Protect her? If I hadn't arrived in time, I couldn't imagine what would have happened. And now, you are telling me to protect her?"

The expression on the wolf boy's face seemed to be that he had spotted his prey. Even when facing a brave man, he did not lose his pride and stubbornness at all.

"That's right... That was indeed my negligence, my fault, so from now on, I will guard Chris's side and never leave even an inch."

"I won't believe a person who has neglected his duty. I am the one who stays with Chris to protect her!"

The two traded words back and forth, glaring at each other.

Wait, this kind of quarrel should happen between girls. What are these two people doing?

Now we must take into account the moods of these two people at the same time in order to achieve perfection.

"I'm extremely grateful for saving Chris, but Chris has already assigned you a mission before. Are you going to ignore the lives of 1 people?"

"You don't need to thank me, young master! I will do it even if no one says it."

The war of words has never stopped... If the quarrel continues like this, there will be no results.

I took the opportunity to step forward and separate them.

"Okay, gentlemen... don't argue about this kind of thing, Noelle, I don't mean to blame you, after all, it was my own negligence. Fami, I don't hold you responsible for leaving your post without permission, after all, it is my own negligence. You saved me. But my current physical condition is very poor. If you really care about me, stop arguing. Go back to where you belong. There are guards outside the door to protect me. You will only It makes me mentally uneasy..."

"Chris...Okay, I understand. In this case, don't force yourself too much."

"Well, thank you, Noelle, we are not far from the shore. You should also have a good rest."

"Good night, Chris." With a trace of reluctance in his eyes, the young man glanced at me, then at Fami, then closed the door and left.

The wolf boy and I were left looking at each other.

He is not an apparition or a ghost.

It was a fact that I was saved by him when I was almost violated. Although I was very grateful, I even hugged the boy in excitement.

But logically speaking, he still disobeyed my order.

Even if there is no punishment as just said, we still need to make it clear.

Chapter 166 166. Dreams and the future——6

"You ignored my orders again, Fami."

"I know...but I saved your life, Chris..." he replied without thinking.

"I'm very grateful for this. I said it just now, but why do you want to come back to this ship? Alyssa and Firmina are not strong enough. You are the core supporting the army!"

Fami should be the general of the army, and Fermina is the brains. Alyssa has no outstanding talents for the time being, but she is not without merits. Perhaps she can use her own set of knight education to tell the orcs how to maintain their own loyalty.

The boy felt a little guilty after hearing my words, and quickly turned his head to the side. "I...can't convince myself. I feel uneasy letting you and the hero go on the road alone."

"Are you jealous?" Seeing the boy curling his lips and looking unconvinced, I suddenly felt inexplicably happy.

Do you finally understand how I feel now?

Did you think of me when you and Alyssa hugged each other? He was obviously a boy who would use forceful tactics or make promises easily when he saw a girl, but now he wanted to show his infatuated side in front of me. , it is really unconvincing.

Seeing that the boy hesitated for a long time without answering, I raised my left hand and let the ore ring given by Noelle appear in his sight again.

"Noelle is a brave man. I never thought that he still likes me now and still remembers the original engagement. I'm really happy."

"..." As I said this, I secretly peeked at Fami's expression. I saw him pouting his mouth slightly, showing an unhappy look. My interest was suddenly raised.

"And Noelle is very gentle. He won't touch me silently, and he won't pay attention to other girls. He is a true gentleman."

He raised his index finger, as if he was deliberately irritating the little wolf. Unlike Noelle, Fami only made me happy when he was angry and complaining. I wanted to see him show a lonely expression and then hug him.
