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

According to Ariana, Lance Shanks is now nocturnal and rarely appears during the day. He basically sleeps all the time.

This ancient dragon is really a homebody.

But when Ariana said this, her expression looked a little strange, as if Lance Shanks was out at night just to prepare something.

Perhaps, this is just his illusion?

"By the way, Fia, there's a question I've been wanting to ask you. You shouldn't be the Dead Sleeping Girl anymore, right?"

Hearing his question, Feiya suddenly put down her bowl and chopsticks and nodded.

"Yes, Lord Rhine, my duties as the Maiden of Deathly Sleep have come to an end. You are the first great man I bid farewell to, and you will also be the last great man I bid farewell to."

Her voice was very soft, but it drowned out the sound of dishes and chopsticks on the table.

"Yeah...."

Reinhardt looked a little strange.

Although this sounds strange, it is still very useful to him.

I can't help but think of a certain vampire——

Sitting on his coffin, he tapped the lid with his fingers and said:

"This is my last territory. I was born and will die here."

Although there is not much connection between the two, this was also the case with Fia before, right?

Ashimi, who was standing by, stuffed his mouth with delicious food and chewed it like a hamster, blinking his eyes and secretly looking at them, with a strange look in his eyes.

What are they talking about? When did the master become a great man? Why can't I understand anything?

Forget it, let’s eat first.

The master once said: "Man is iron, and food is steel. If you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry."

I have to eat more now.

This is really good, give me some more.

It's probably this kind of inner change.

"By the way, what exactly happened with Letina?"

When he asked this question, the scene suddenly became extremely quiet, with only the sound of Ashimi wolfing down his rice in an unruly manner.

It's such a waste of this queen-like appearance.

"Actually, this is my fault. I'm sorry, Lord Rhine..." Fia spoke slowly, her eyelids drooping, not daring to look Reinhardt in the eye.

"what happened?"

Feiya's expression made him feel a little uneasy, and his heart beat violently.

"...Lord Rhine, let me tell you."

Aliana, who was in charge of serving him, suddenly took up the topic and said slowly: "This matter is not just the fault of Lady Fia alone. We are all responsible."

"You should know that our Sun Cult has always maintained a neutral position in the border area. Except for the Stonewell City in Nimgerfu and the Royal City of Rodel in the Yatan Plateau, almost all other forces have exchanges with us."

"Lord Lance Sanx is in charge of the guard duties and the envoys from Lienia. I, Ariana, am the envoy from the Red Lion City of Galid. Lord Fia leads the cult and maintains its daily operations."

"And Lady Letina was sent by Her Highness Lani to help us, and as an envoy to the Sacred Tree..."

"But over at the Holy Tree, due to the disappearance of Lady Michaela and Lady Marennia's slumber, there is often chaos over there."

"I originally thought that since Letina was the Platinum Child and Mistress Loretta was also there, everything would be safe and secure. But just a year ago, Mistress Letina once again led the envoys to the Sacred Tree on behalf of the Order and never returned..."

"There's no news from Aotina in Yidian Town..."

"His life or death is still unknown..."

By the end of her speech, Ariana's voice had become very small.

Under his gaze, Fia lowered her head. "I'm sorry, Lord Rhine. This is all my fault. I knew there was something wrong with the Sacred Tree, but I still let Miss Letina go..."

Because of this incident, Feiya has regretted it for countless nights and has made every effort.

But now their people have no way to go to the Holy Snow Plain.

Lance Shanks had also been to the Holy Tree, but now the Holy Tree was in chaos, with scarlet corruption spreading widely. Those noble knights did not know where Letina had gone.

Dolores, who originally represented the sacred tree, also disappeared.

"Lift your head."

Just as the two were confessing, Reinhardt's quiet voice suddenly rang out, forcing them to look up.

Under their gaze, Reinhardt sighed secretly, then said as gently as possible: "This matter is not your fault. It was because I came back too late that all this happened."

"So you don't have to blame yourselves. I'll take care of this matter from now on. I'll be responsible for bringing Letina back."

Even if it's just to bring back her body.

Moreover, he did not believe that the Sons of Platinum would be in any danger in the Holy Tree. The Sons of Platinum were the negative products of the Imitation Teardrops and also had platinum blood flowing in their veins. This meant that the Scarlet Corruption would not have much effect on them.

The prerequisite is to stay away from the source of the scarlet corruption - Malenia.

With the concentration of scarlet corruption that permeates Malenia, there is nothing she cannot corrupt.

And since Dolores, who was Michaela's personal knight, was also missing, then Letina would not be in danger. She should most likely be trapped in the prison of Otina in Ceremonial Town, right?

"Lord Rhine..."

"Lord Rhine, my master, are you preparing to go to the Holy Tree?"

Both Fia and Aliana were surprised. "Listen, my master, the situation at the Sacred Tree is very chaotic right now. Even Lord Lance Shanks has to retreat. You have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders. Please do not go into such a dangerous place alone."

"Lady Letina, we will do everything we can to find it."

Aliana tried her best to persuade him, but he shook his head and said, "Holy Tree, I must go. You don't need to persuade me."

"This is a promise between Michaela and me, and I need to fulfill it."

And now Millicent has also embarked on the journey, so he has to go on this trip to the Holy Tree no matter what.

He was not greedy for the bodies of the two sisters, he just wanted to fulfill the oath he had made.

“…”

“…”

Upon hearing this, Feiya and Aliana fell silent, but Feiya immediately raised her head and said firmly, "Since you have made up your mind, I will not stop you."

"But I hope you can take us with you. Even if not, at least take some members of the church with you. They will understand the situation in the Holy Snow Plain..."

"No need." Before the other party could finish, he interrupted with a wave of his hand, "There's no need. Besides, I'm not going directly to the Holy Snow Plain next."

"Now that the road to Noklongen is open, I'm going to take Ashmi to the Eternal City first."

According to his speculation, Letina would not be in any danger.

So now, compared to this matter, Lani's matter is more important.

Otherwise, who knows what kind of trouble those two-fingers will cause, and Kalia might not be able to hold on.

He had this hunch.

205. The Blade of the Faded One? (4.2K)

Half a month later.

Nimgefu, Yakir Lake.

"Roar--!!!"

The loud dragon roar echoed across the Nimgefu Plain.

A giant dragon appeared on the lake, spewing flames from its mouth, sweeping across everything around it, evaporating the lake water and leaving behind streaks of heat.

Dozens of immortals were instantly turned into ashes and annihilated by the brilliant dragon flames.

That giant dragon was the "flying dragon" Yakir that lurked in the land of Nimgefu.

Although it is much weaker than those ancient dragons, Yakir is also one of the best flying dragons.

However, the reason why Yakir was so angry at this time was only because an uninvited guest broke into its territory.

bass--

The brilliant silver blade gleamed in the light of the golden tree, and the burnt blade marks left traces in the air.

A petite figure appeared from under Yakir, lightly tapped the water with its toes, causing ripples, and then jumped into the air on one foot like a water bird, raised the blade and slashed across Yakir's limbs again, and then performed a series of super-fast slashes in mid-air.

The thin blade cut across Yakir's body, leaving a trail of blood, and the splattered blood flew into the sky.

"Roar--!!!"

Akiel cried out in pain again.

It really has no way to deal with this human who invades its territory.

Neither breath nor claw attacks could hit this human, who was wriggling around under its body like a loach.

He wanted to take off and escape, but his wings had been pierced and he was completely unable to fly.

All it can do now is to find a way to fight to the death.

"Roar--!!!"

The blazing flames burst out from the dragon's head again, but the girl dodged it again nimbly, as lightly as a flying bird.

"As expected, she really looks like Lady Marenia..."

Watching Millicent attacking the dragon from a distant cliff, Finlay murmured subconsciously.

Since they parted at Red Lion City, Finlay, who had been planning to return to the Sacred Tree by boat, gave up the idea and chose to follow Millicent silently to protect her.

At the same time, he had witnessed everything, witnessed Millicent's hard work over the past half month, and witnessed the gradual improvement of her left-hand sword.

From being unable to kill even a wild boar in the beginning, he has now reached the level of perfection.

Such rapid progress is enough to make anyone in the border area dumbfounded.

And this resolute and unyielding character, that dignity, that purity, that strength, are exactly the same as her impression of Lady Marennia.

I didn't even expect that Millicent had the potential to surpass me.

After all, even Lady Marenia couldn't use the Water Bird Dance with her left hand, but Miss Millicent did it.

And the sharpness of her attack was so great that if it weren't for the difference in her clothes, she would probably have mistaken her for Marlenya herself.

At this point, she became more and more certain that Miss Millicent must have some connection with Lady Marennia.

Soon, with a loud bang, Yakir's huge body fell heavily.

The escaping golden runes merged into Millicent's body.

The triumphant girl adjusted her breathing while putting her long sword back into its sheath, then sat down in the pond and let the cool lake water soak her clothes.

As the lake breeze blew, ripples appeared on the lake surface that had returned to calm.

She looked down at the exquisite sword beside her, then looked at her left hand, seeing the palm trembling and turning red due to fatigue, and slowly clenched it into a fist.

"...Not enough, not enough."

This speed of progress is beyond imagination for others. He was a cripple who couldn't even use the left-hand sword half a month ago, but now he can even kill a powerful flying dragon.

But even this was not enough for Millicent herself, far from it.

Especially after seeing the fight between Reinhardt and Latarn in Red Lion City.

She knew it very well.

Even if I were to participate in that battle, I would probably die in an instant.

Just like this, let alone repaying Reinhardt, she couldn't even complete her own mission.

Now there are only three things she needs to do.

First, determine the relationship between himself and Malenia.

Although she didn't know what the relationship between her and Malenia was, she felt that she seemed to have an indescribable close connection with Malenia, a relationship that was difficult to explain.
