"I just told the actual situation, and even so...it was the adult who recognized me and made me what I am now."
"...I don't even know whether you admire her or hate her." The strange statement came from the mouth of Laerne who seemed to be a follower of Celie, which really made Ash a little speechless.
Although he didn't want to say more at first, he still shook his head and spoke out what he heard from Celia for the first time today:
"Do you know what kind of magic is used to create the flowers in the hanging garden?"
"....Conjure the magic of the flower field? What's wrong?"
"That's Volame's favorite, the magic her parents taught Volame."
"Flamey's magic...is it? It turns out it belongs to that person." Laerne opened his eyes wide in surprise, and muttered to himself: "Sure enough, only the disciples whose names have been left in history will let Sai Lady Liai, please remember..."
"No, why are you so paranoid all of a sudden??" He shook his head dumbfounded and explained:
"Although it is true that he left his name, in the eyes of Celie, Volamei is also a failure. He has always said that it was a failure that was cultivated on a whim... But in fact, every disciple who is accepted on a whim, She still clearly remembers their characters and their favorite magic, and she has never even regretted it—especially me! Well, that’s what she told me.”
"Lord Ash..."
"What?"
"...You are so gentle." Laerne's slightly dumbfounded expression turned into depression in the end, and he lowered his head and whispered: "But thank you anyway, even if it is a lie, I can hear you say so Say, I’m happy too.”
"...Even if the old man calls me gentle, I won't be happy at all. Why are my words judged to be lies?"
"Because no matter how I think about it, I can't think of a situation where Siria-sama would say that you are special. In other words... you just want to comfort me, right?"
"...Why did it become like this?"
Although a little bit of personal information was indeed added, the overall explanation should not be considered a lie. However, in the end, it resulted in a strange misunderstanding, which gave Ash a bit of a headache.
Duncan didn't join their conversation either, because he had already said everything he needed to say, and now he was watching him silently, hoping to get an answer.
"Forget it...if I pass by, I'll go and see it with you."
In the end, he just left these words, silently stood up with a hint of headache, and left here quickly.
Because—he had noticed it since evening, hiding from Ligne’s sight in the distance.
He wanted to find Line before leaving home, but he let various situations delay him. If he didn't deal with it now, he was worried that the child would rush out directly.
Florian the Buried·The journey officially begins: Bounty
Although it appears to be the same update on the surface, it is actually always in a bounty state! After all, chapter division is quite troublesome...
Originally, last month's bounty settlement should have been issued at the beginning of last month, but... there were indeed a lot of monthly tickets at the end of the month, but they should have been paid back almost by now.
There is no detailed calculation, but judging from experience, it should be about the same. After all, the daily updates are 8 or 9k, and the normal corresponding bounty amount must be a lot more.
I originally planned to tone down this book and finish Next Door first. After all...as you all know, it has been double-edited all the time and I didn't save the manuscript at all...but there was nothing I could do about the anniversary.
Based on 4K per day (two updates of 2K or one update of 4K), then a total of 100 monthly tickets, 100 blades, 10,000 rewards plus one update or 2K words will be added. There is no upper limit as before, and it will end at the end of the month.
The blade can hold more, so please use as many blades as you can, but this time there is a lucky bag or something, so I can only adjust it to the same one, but not to mention paying, at least get some free refreshed blades...
Although it's not open at the beginning of the month, let's just start the calculation from the beginning of the month. After all, it's easier to calculate... because I'm really lazy! And if it’s not like this, it won’t be friendly to those who voted at the beginning of the month!
Finally, to sum up, please give me monthly votes, blades, and rewards! Just open the lucky bag and have whatever is left over! Although I still want to remind you... try not to be a dog gambler. Although I did be a dog gambler last time, the result was... It's hard to describe.
The Buried Fulian·The Journey Officially Begins: Chapter 41 The obedient, rebellious and clingy Liné Liné: I am Lord Ash’s lover
While Ash was chatting with the two old men, Kang Ni and Labine found that they seemed to be talking about some very serious topic. They felt that the atmosphere was too dull, so they chose to pack delicious food and left neatly. on site.
Of the two old people left here, Laerne was still depressed about Celie's ruthlessness, while Duncan watched Ash leave, feeling relieved in his heart.
After all, the other party is Mahat, the Golden Land. Even if a magician like Laerne, who is the pinnacle of mankind, is added to him, it is difficult to guarantee that he will reach his wife's grave alive.
Now I just hope that the magic given to him by Celie can block the golden transformation, and... whether Ash can block Mahat.
Although Ash said he would only go and take a look when passing by, he probably would have to look at the actual situation before he would further consider whether to accept the commission, right?
............................
After leaving the store, Ash should normally go home, but...
He had just left the tavern when a group of people came out of the alley at the other end of the street.
They were eight royal guards wearing uniform magic tools, armed to the teeth, and even enchanted knight masks.
Undoubtedly, these people were selected from different battlefields and were supposed to die. They exuded the sharpness and calmness of having experienced the test of life and death.
They also dispersed in a tacit formation, forming an indestructible protective circle, with a small figure wearing a hood at the center.
At first glance, this heavily protected object seemed like a child from a fairy tale, exuding an innocent aura of ignorance of the world, and the strange hood that didn't quite match them, but added a bit of mystery and childishness.
Image: "Line", Location: "Images/1726561997-100409035-112135113.jpg"
However, she has a pair of beautiful purple eyes, a delicate face and a slender and soft figure. When she wears a Gothic Lolita dress that combines the purity of white and brown, people can't help but feel pity and admiration.
"Line... Why are you here?" Ash started to feel a stomachache when he saw this lolita dressed in Gothic Lolita.
Linie, who was sitting opposite, showed obvious dissatisfaction on her childish face: "Because Master Ash and Master Aura's birthday is coming soon, right?"
"... You actually still remember."
"But you haven't shown up, Master Aura is starting to get more troublesome, so I came here."
"... At this time, even if you lie, you should say you miss me."
"Really? Then I miss Master Ash." Linie nodded silently, looking like she had learned something.
Then they just said a few words, and she took out an apple from the knight's basket next to her, wiped it on the lining of his shirt, and took a big bite.
This familiar action made him stunned. He grabbed the little corner of her head with a look of suppressed headache:
"...Why did you rub the apple on me when you ate it?"
"I already rubbed it inside." Linie raised her eyes and glanced at him, tilted her head and thought for a while, and asked in confusion: "It shouldn't be dirty, right?"
"My question is...why did you use me to wipe it? I didn't mean to make you doubt whether my clothes are dirty!"
"I'm sorry."
"...I haven't preached yet?"
"Anyway, apologize first, it must be right...Solitier said so." Linie bit the apple with an expressionless face, directly betraying the black hand behind the scenes.
"I told you not to have too much contact with Solitiel, didn't I? You've been taught badly again... Alas, I tried so hard to make you a good child."
"Even though you said so, isn't Lord Ash always casual? He said something to make me behave, but he was always naughty, and sometimes even more troublesome than Lord Aura."
Although Aura and Ash can be considered her guardians, Korline's respect for them is often only verbal... To be more precise, it should be verbal polite language.
Now she is also ruthless. When he wants to put the problem of failed education on Solitiel, she directly exposes his intention and even finds out the problem accurately.
Are all children nowadays so strange? ——Faced with these overly sharp words, Ash was speechless for a while, and even thought of Ferren, who was obviously an adopted daughter, but somehow looked a little like himself and his mother Flillian.
Although he wanted to give a good lecture, the environment on the scene was obviously not suitable, so he could only take a group of people to the local lord's mansion for the time being.
It is worth mentioning that although Linie wears a hood on her head, in fact, Ash found the ancient cognitive impairment magic in Celie's library a long time ago, which can make people ignore the existence of the two horns, and no one can see it even if it is taken off.
Now she wears the hood purely for safety reasons. After all, if there is a very powerful magician, she will be able to find out that she has used some magic.
At that time, if the magic of removing the curse is used on her, the pair of small horns on her head will be seen. Therefore, in such a place, the Royal Guard Knights must protect her to ensure that there is no risk.
After all, this is the kingdom, and no magician will offend the people protected by the Royal Guard Knights.
Although in fact, the Royal Guards have not protected the royal family for nearly a century, and are mainly used to do some shameful things. The additional work is to protect Linie and Aura, and to protect the safety of the royal city.
The entire organization is countless times stronger than before, but the components are purely undead soldiers carefully selected by Aura on the battlefield... Just like the Magic Knights, all members are still alive, but they have reached an agreement and are controlled to move towards the same ideal.
The additional obedience magic is a second insurance, and the ideal and commitment can prevent the strong-willed people among them from occasionally rebelling.
..............................
..............................
The original guards of the lord's mansion have been driven out, and the guards have taken over the nearby defense early.
Ash didn't go to see the lord, but went to the guest room with Linie, intending to educate the child properly.
However... He was holding his chin with one hand at the desk, and he was still brewing his emotions when he saw this "big" child who had been raised from a young age, who was more like a loli than a girl, but was actually almost 100 years old, wiping his hands with his clothes.
But now, he didn't want to say more about this, but just scolded Linie for appearing here:
"It's okay for you to come here for no reason, but why are you making such a big fuss now? What if someone finds out your identity??"
"It's okay, Master Ash, I've always been very careful, and this time I actually have other serious things to do."
".... Serious things?"
"Didn't you say that there will be a war soon? I brought some of Master Aura's monsters, and I am mainly responsible for coordinating the battles."
After spending quite a while with the Bloody God of War, Linie's melee level is also fully guaranteed, and with the protection of the Royal Guards, there should be no need to worry too much.
But the biggest problem is that this child is sometimes disobedient... But the war is about to start, and Linie's appearance with the beasts is a good backup force.
After all, Aura is only willing to give control of the Undead Army to Linie and him, and no one else can communicate.
This bothered him for a while, so he simply stopped worrying about it and teased him: ".... You know it's my birthday soon, so what are you going to give me this year?"
"Gift...?" Linie thought for a while, then bent her knees slightly, took off the seductive black stockings in front of him, revealing her white and delicious little feet, and handed over the pink fabric:
"Master Ash, here."
"... What??"
"Underwear." Linie tilted her head, with a big question mark in her purple eyes, as if she didn't understand why he didn't even know this.
He took it subconsciously and was about to go crazy: "——I know! I can't understand why you gave me this? Do I look like a pervert?"
"...The human before showed you this? You weren't very happy, so why not keep it for you to see every day."
"Thank you!"
Holding the warm thing in his hand, his blood pressure kept rising, and he didn't even know how to deal with it.
Line seemed to think she was praised, and her mouth slightly curled up as she stretched out her hand to him: "Give me the apples from the Central Kingdoms as a souvenir."
"——I'm not really thanking you!"
"...Lord Ash is a liar."
"I'm not lying!"
"What's going on? Please explain clearly."
"...Why are you still upset?"
Looking at the girl who had already pouted, he felt that he should be the one who was upset.
But after complaining about her for a while, Ash still put the underwear aside and habitually held her on his knees, intending to hold her up and have a good talk.
But at this time, Linie turned her face away, like a cat that was picked up and looked unwilling.
He couldn't do this: "...So, why are you still unwilling."
"When Master Ash looked at other people's underwear, he was obviously very happy."
"Don't talk nonsense, I will be regarded as a pervert."
"You didn't bring the apples you promised."
"...Believe me, the apples in the Central Kingdoms are no different from those in the North. You should stop being obsessed with the apples."
........
Why should he comfort this upset child when he should preach? To be honest, Ash didn't understand and even had a headache.
But after learning about the situation of Aura and the capital from Linie, he didn't worry about the other side anymore.
The only thing he had to be careful about was that he didn't go back for his birthday this year, and Aura was upset...but normally he should just pretend to be deaf and dumb for a while.
Since they were both born on the same day, the date was set randomly. However, normal demons don't have the concept of birthdays. It was completely taught to Aura by him.
This led to Linie now understanding, but what he received from Linie... has always been hard for him to describe.
It was not rare to see Linie again, so he settled down in the lord's mansion that night. Of course, he still forced her to put on her underwear again. After all, if she really accepted this thing, his reputation would be ruined.
..............................
The next day, it should have been about the same time, and he had to go to the front line to check the situation.
However, the war had not really started yet, so he could delay it for two days. Moreover, when he woke up, he found that Linie, who was supposed to be next to him, had crawled into his bed without knowing when, and was half pressed on him.
