People are at the border, but they become the incarnation of the sun

Unlike Melina's seriousness, his tone was full of curiosity and frivolity.

But Melina seemed to be accustomed to his cynical attitude and still maintained her seriousness as she said:

"...I have something I want to tell you about the witch named Haida I just met. She is the witch who serves Three Fingers."

"Although the witch currently knows nothing, she is indeed guided by the Three-Fingered Madness. She ate the grapes of Chapolili in order to receive the Three-Fingered's revelation..."

"Ok, I know."

Before Melina could finish, he interrupted, "I know everything you said."

"...So, what you just said to Haida is true?" Melina asked without changing her expression. "Have you really encountered a witch who also wanted to be enlightened by the Three Finger in the past?"

"..."

Reinhardt stopped immediately after hearing this, turned his head to look at Melina and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

"Look, Miss Melina, aren't you being too sensitive? That's just a lie to trick little girls."

"You know, before my return, I lived during the reign of the Golden Dynasty, under the watchful eye of [Eternal Queen] Marika. Do you think Mad Fire dared to show its face back then?"

"Don't you know that even having such thoughts, let alone being inspired by Three Fingers, would result in arrest and execution as a heretic?"

"..."

Melina was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "...I don't know what happened during that era. I just hope you can stay away from the madness."

"Whether you wish to become the King of Elden or not, whether you wish to repair and obtain the Elden Ring or not, I hope you can stay away from that ominous flame."

"...It is something that cannot be touched, a chaos that will devour all life and all thoughts."

“Even if this world falls into ruin, filled with pain and despair, as long as life exists, the world will continue to thrive... everything is still beautiful.”

It was like sobbing, full of prayers.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but reach out and touch Melina, who had lowered her head, and said with a smile, "Don't make such an expression, you're like an abandoned kitten."

"I can assure you that I won't touch the fire of insanity."

"...Really?" Melina slowly raised her head, her eyes flashing with hope.

"Yeah, it's true."

At least that's true for now.

To be honest, he was indeed somewhat interested in Dianhuo.

Moreover, when the two ancient dragon lolis left last night, they told him that the sun was once the most powerful existence in the border area, commanding the full moon and the stars, and controlling the birth, death and reincarnation of the world.

The power he has currently demonstrated is not yet complete.

Devouring the Elden Ring to regain power is only one of them. You also need to have more contact with things related to fire.

Slowly understand this power.

So, he felt that Dianhuo seemed to be a good target?

The sun and the mad fire, who will devour whom?

I couldn't help but feel a little interested.

185. Went home, but was arrested (4.2K)

Torret carried him and Melina along the animal trail in the woods, like a breeze blowing, causing the surrounding bushes to rustle.

But this sound was particularly creepy in the dark night, especially in the woods engulfed by the darkness.

But soon, a different scene was seen in the forest.

The quiet moonlight shines down from the sky, providing one of the few glimmers of light in the darkness.

Under the bright moonlight, a tall and thick stone wall appeared before their eyes. It looked like an old relic, covered with emerald green vines and almost blended in with the surrounding forest.

Only the flag of Kalia flying above indicated its ownership.

But even so, there were still several goblin knights wearing full body armor patrolling back and forth in front of the piled stone wall with heavy steps.

At the feet of those mountain monsters, you can also see a girl wearing silver armor, carrying a quiver on her back, and riding a white wolf, following them on patrol and responsible for guarding.

They were a generation of female Platinum Sons. Unlike the males, they were not good at pyroxene magic, but were good at archery, and their level was not much worse than that of the Ancestral Spirit People.

The most important thing is that in addition to the standard equipment, each of the Platinum Sons is equipped with a sentinel torch.

It seems like he is on guard against the black knife assassin.

It looked like it had been ravaged by the black knife. Perhaps that was why Aleto was captured by Lani.

Seeing this, he quickly reined in Torret, gently stroked the horse's head, and then rolled off.

"We're here. This is the only pass leading to Kalia Castle—the royal territory."

Standing still, looking at the old fortress, his eyes were gradually filled with memories.

After thousands of years and thousands of years of wind and rain, this royal territory stationed in Kalia, which can be called the first line of defense of Kalia Castle, still stands tall.

It really makes me miss it...

Fortunately, she tried her best back then, otherwise she wouldn't be in this situation today. Lani might become a lonely person again.

Although it is not as majestic as I imagined, it is enough and I am satisfied.

“Please stop!”

With a whoosh, an arrow whizzed past his ear and disappeared into the woods behind him.

Immediately afterwards, a white wolf landed not far in front of him. A beautiful girl sat on the wolf's back, pulling the platinum bow in her hand into a full moon and aiming at him.

It was obvious that the arrow just now was a warning from her.

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into Kalia's territory!"

This Son of Platinum was very imposing, comparable to Letina back then, but the more so, the more speechless Reinhardt felt.

It would be fine if the male Platinum Son didn't know him. After all, they didn't have much contact back then. At most, he could only talk to the old man Elpas.

But why is it the same for female Platinum Sons?

Have you forgotten the time when we fought side by side together?

I remember that back then, as a member of the raid, in addition to fighting with Kalia's soldiers and knights, he also cooperated a lot with the female Platinum Sons.

It's not because he values women over friends, but because the Son of Platinum riding a white wolf is very mobile and very suitable for harassment and outer circle support.

What's more, who would want to hang out with a bunch of old men when you can have the company of young and beautiful girls?

"No one is allowed to hurt the master!"

Seeing this, Kurara, who was held in his arms, was not willing to be outdone. She immediately broke free from his arms, floated in front of him, and brewed venom.

If the other party dares to act rashly again, she will not be polite.

Melina, who felt that the atmosphere was not right, pulled out the pyroxene Kris he had given her, looking ready to fight.

For a moment, the atmosphere became tense.

However, before he could explain, reinforcements from Kalia arrived.

"Eileen, what's going on?"

The Son of Platinum, also riding a white wolf, rushed out of the woods and came to the Son of Platinum called Irene.

Behind her were two mountain goblins wearing armor and Kalia cloaks.

Their hands were tightly gripping the knight's broadswords behind their backs, as if they were about to open them if they disagreed.

"Captain Riva."

Riding on the wolf's back, Irene bowed her head in greeting and said, "These unknown individuals are sneaking through the forest, trying to invade Kalia's territory!"

"???"

How can this be called trespassing?!

He clearly came here in a swagger from the animal trail!

Although the animal trail looked overgrown with weeds and seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, it was not sneaky!

Reinhardt frowned and was about to explain when the son of platinum called Riva had already driven the giant wolf under his crotch to come in front of him.

Holding the sentry torch in front of him, he explained, "I'm sorry, sir. Kalia has been very restless, so I need to confirm your appearance and determine whether you are a disguised version of those black knife assassins."

Reinhardt had no intention of resisting after hearing this. He even pulled Krala back and stopped Melina, allowing the woman named Riva to look at him.

It seems that after a thousand years, few people in Kalia remember him anymore and have completely forgotten him.

Although the feeling is a little hard to describe, it is normal and completely understandable.

It would be strange if I still remembered him.

Just as they were investigating, Irene, who was in charge of investigating the others, suddenly cried out in surprise.

"Captain Riva! A black knife assassin has been spotted!"

Swah——

Upon hearing this, the two goblins immediately drew their knight swords and pointed them at them.

However, Liva also asked him seriously: "Sir, do you have anything to say? Why would a member of the Black Blade Assassin appear here?"

The other party's words filled his head with question marks, and he turned around with a puzzled look on his face.

Just as they said, a black knife assassin was following them.

The sentry's torch broke Black Blade's invisibility, but Black Blade allowed the firelight to flicker on her body, illuminating her tall and slender figure.

He seemed to care nothing about the actions of the Son of Platinum, but just stared at him closely, as if waiting for his order.

"Di Xi? Why did you follow me?" Reinhardt was a little surprised when he recognized the man with the black knife.

Why didn’t you stay in the magic academy and follow me here?

And he did it quietly. He didn't feel that Di Xi was following him along the way.

However, Di Xi completely ignored the reactions of the Platinum Son and the Mountain Troll. He walked straight in front of him, knelt on one knee, lowered his head and said, "Di Xi is here to protect the master."

"Master, what should we do next? Kill everyone here?" Di Xi glanced around with his peripheral vision, and even put his hand behind his back to touch the dagger that contained the destined death.

As long as she gets the order from her master, she will kill everyone without mercy.

As expected of the second sister Di Xi, she would start killing people if she disagreed with someone.

It was precisely because of this disagreement that they were immediately pushed into an even more embarrassing situation.

"...Di Xi, calm down a little."

While comforting Di Xi, he turned around and tried to explain something to Riva, but seeing the other party's extremely alert look, he knew that it was useless to explain now.

"Sir, I need you to come with us. Please don't try to resist." Riva's tone was full of seriousness that could not be refused.

Well, what if I go back home many years later and get caught by my own patrol?

Waiting online, very anxious.

"...Oh, what happened? Why is it so noisy?"

At this time, an old and calm voice sounded from inside the royal territory.

Accompanied by the sound of heavy footsteps, two tall figures appeared in front of everyone, and their true appearance was revealed under the moonlight and torches.

"Lord Iggy, and Lord Bors!"

Everyone bowed to the two tall figures, even the knights who were also mountain goblins.

However, Bols did not say anything and followed Iggy like a guard.

However, when he saw Reinhardt's figure, his pupils suddenly shrank and he whispered a few words to Iggy.

Iggy was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and slowly turned his head to look at Reinhardt. Before the patrol members could speak, Iggy spoke:

"Ah, it's you, Rhine Knight... You're back..."

Using the calmest voice, he said the most shocking words.

At that time, the two Platinum Sons were already stunned where they were.
