A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world
Chapter 6 Past events (1)
"Xiao Wuyue, wake up, it's time to set off."
The next day, before dawn, Tiffany woke Wuyue up.
"Good morning, sister Tiffany..."
The little girl who was woken up rubbed her sleepy eyes and said good morning to Tiffany.
"It's almost time, hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to make it in time for breakfast today!"
Tiffany said with a smile, reaching out and touching Wuyue's hair.
The little Loli immediately jumped up from the floor obediently, started to pack her luggage, and then came to the campfire to have breakfast with everyone. What she ate today was the dry food prepared when the team set off. Although it was not as good as the grilled fish last night, it was still good. improvise.
Several people chatted without saying a word, saying how dangerous this mission was and how they must have a drink when they get back.
"That..." Wuyue suddenly interrupted. "I...there is something I want to tell you..."
Everyone looked at Wuyue. Normally Wuyue would not take the initiative to speak, but today it was a bit unusual.
Only Tiffany was more thoughtful and could make some guesses.
"When I go back...I, I want to go to the Adventurer Academy to study!" Wuyue finally plucked up the courage and said what he had been thinking about all night.
......
Everyone bowed their heads and said nothing, and the air became a little heavy
Wuyue wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
Everyone knows the profound meaning of this sentence, which means that Xiao Wuyue will leave the "Starfire" adventure team and embark on a new journey alone.
"You guys... I know you can't bear to leave Xiao Wuyue." It was Tiffany who broke the deadlock first.
"But Xiao Wuyue is different now. I think she can take care of herself. Besides, if Xiao Wuyue has this heart, we should support her."
"Ah... Hahaha, Tiffany is right. Xiao Wuyue is so strong now. It would be a pity not to go to the academy for further studies. Uncle will always support you!" Sivana smiled awkwardly and quickly expressed his stance. .
"I think Tiffany is right this time, and I also support Xiao Wuyue!" Although Tariq often breaks up with Tiffany, he did not do so on this matter.
"Child, I have no objection. I have said that you are destined to shock the world. I knew it from the beginning." Marnus said calmly, "I will not misjudge the person."
"Everyone..." Wuyue raised his head and looked around everyone. His nose suddenly felt a little sore and tears welled up in his eyes.
Tiffany came over, gently held Wuyue in her arms, and comforted: "It's okay, Xiao Wuyue doesn't cry, it's not a separation of life and death, everyone is happy for you from the bottom of their hearts."
"Well, Wuyue won't cry!" Wuyue wiped away his tears. With these family members supporting him, there was nothing to be afraid of.
"Okay, this matter is settled!" Swanna, as the captain, made the decision. "After we go back, we will make preparations for Xiao Wuyue's enrollment."
"Now, let's set off and go home!"
......
"Really, Wuyue, I'm really envious that you can have such a supportive family..." Bai Ye said in Wuyue's mind.
"Master..." Wuyue knew that Bai Ye had lost his parents when he was young. He felt the sadness in Bai Ye's words and comforted him: "Master, don't be sad anymore."
"Master, you saved our lives. From that moment on, Master has been Wuyue's family."
"Always will be!"
......
After half a day's journey, Wuyue and others followed the original path and walked out of the forest where they had camped before. They could see a town in the distance. It was not big in area and the walls were not high. It looked like a border town. A small river flows through the town, forming a natural moat. On the periphery of the river, there are a few thatched houses and large areas of land scattered here and there. Since it is early spring, everything is reviving, and looking around, it is a vibrant scene.
"Master, this is Sesar City." Wuyue introduced to Bai Ye.
"Looking at the small area and incomplete city defense facilities, it shouldn't be an important town." Bai Ye said after a brief analysis.
"I heard Grandpa Marnus say that when he was young, there was nothing here." Wu Yue said.
"Yes, it is indeed difficult to build a city in this mountain."
By the time everyone arrived in front of the city gate, it was already dusk. Sivana and Tariq greeted the guards, obviously knowing each other.
"Swarna, are you back after your work?" the guard asked. Then he saw the bandage wrapped around his body, "It looks like he was seriously injured. He must have encountered a tough problem."
"No, I almost lost my life. Oh, what a bad luck." Swanna complained.
"I've told you before that it's not easy to be an adventurer. You still have a daughter to take care of at home. After you retire from the army, find some safe work. You have to have both advantages and disadvantages..." The guard expressed concern in his words. It's not fake. It seems that not only do the two know each other, but they also have a deep friendship.
"I just want to make more money while I still have some strength, so that Chrissy can live a good life. Her mother passed away early, so what else can I do besides my three-legged cat skills..." At this point , Sivana seemed to think of something, and looked sad.
Knowing that Sivana didn't want to bring up the past, the guard wisely stopped talking about this topic. He turned around and chatted with Tariq for a few more words, and made an appointment to go drinking together next time. Then he opened the small door under the city gate to let everyone in. Went in.
"Let's go to the union to hand in the task first, and then go to Tequila's for a drink and discuss Xiao Wuyue's affairs." Sivana said to several people.
The Adventurer's Guild is located in the center of the town, just opposite the lord's seat, which makes it convenient for the lord to issue tasks directly.
Sivana opened the door of the guild, and the noisy air hit him. He saw all kinds of adventurers walking around. Even a third-tier town like Sesar City would gather a large number of adventurers, mainly Because Sesar is close to one of the few relatively safe and resource-rich areas like Death Canyon, but recently there have been a lot of teams overturning in it, which has made people a little panicky. But there are a lot of tasks to take on, and you have to eat.
Sivana's strong body squeezed through the crowded crowd, and the other people followed suit and came to the counter. Sivana handed over the task items and task list, and then handed over the copper team badge, which attracted the attention of the surrounding adventurers. After all, C-level adventure teams like Sivana and the others are too rare here. There are only two in the entire Sesar. Apart from Sivana and the others, the other one has not been seen for a long time...
After a long time, the receptionist at the counter finally came back with a bag of gold coins in her hand.
"Hello, I've kept you waiting for a long time. Dear C-level adventurer, the mission you submitted has been reviewed. This is the reward for this mission, as well as your team badge. Please keep it." The receptionist said politely. .
"Okay, thank you. Let's go and celebrate coming back alive." Swana said boldly, and then opened the door and walked out.
"Tequila" is the name of this tavern, which is the name of the most popular liquor here. It is located on a street next to the Adventurer's Guild, making it convenient for adventurers to come and consume. As soon as everyone came in, it attracted attention.
"Hey, the famous 'Spark' is back, Swanna, without you, I can't even sell my wine." The owner of the tavern is a bald man with a big belly and a full beard. When he saw Swanna, he looked like It's like seeing the God of Wealth.
"Still the same as before, three glasses of tequila, one glass of ironthorn mead, and one glass of sesal milk."
After ordering drinks, everyone skillfully found their usual place on the second floor and sat down one by one.
Swana said: "Okay, let's discuss Xiao Wuyue's matter."
"First of all, think about which academy to go to. Although there is an Adventurer Academy in Cesar, it is only a branch. Even the dean himself is only B-level. Xiao Wuyue will not have a better future here." Varner was the first to speak. Indeed, rather than studying in a place like Sesar, it would be better to stay in the team and learn more.
"I have a part-time job at a church in the city, and I know that St. Fran's College in the Royal Capital is the best college in the entire continent, but they focus on training clergy, which is not in line with Xiao Wuyue's career," Tiffany said.
"By the way, Wuyue, I haven't asked you yet, what is your career as an assassin? Is it something you were born with?" Bai Ye asked.
"Master, in Carandia, some people are born with talents for certain professions. Grandpa Marnus said that these talents are engraved on everyone's soul, which allows those who possess them to learn the corresponding professional skills. More smoothly, this kind of people are the seeds of becoming adventurers, and I was born to be an assassin, but my talent is a little less..." At this point, Wuyue was a little embarrassed to continue.
"That's it." Bai Ye said thoughtfully, "But I think your talent should be much higher now."
"Really, Master?" Wuyue asked.
"Because I am here, I have enhanced the strength of your soul in disguise, so it will be easier for you to learn assassin skills in the future." Bai Ye explained.
"I see..." Wuyue suddenly realized.
"Even so, don't relax, you still have a lot to learn."
"Yes! Master!"
......
While Wuyue and Baiye were whispering in their minds, the discussion among the other people continued.
"I know a place." Marnus suddenly said. "Melbourne, Theodoric College."
"I know about Melbourne City, but I've never heard of this Theo... Gram College..." Tarik said doubtfully.
"This happened a long time ago." Marnas said with a look of reminiscence.
"About five hundred years ago, Carandia was still a whole continent, and the city of Mel was also called Branmore City."
"At that time, the continent had not yet been divided into the nine kingdoms it is today. Instead, three powerful empires arose with the capitals of Brammel, the current city of Reker, and Campino respectively, forming a tripartite force. , and since the founding of Branmore, its monarch established a spy agency, the Eye of Insight, in order to suppress the domestic nobility, and established Theoderic Academy to select talents such as spies, spies, and assassins."
Marnas said this, paused, took a sip of wine, and continued: "The Eye of Insight did play its role in the beginning, secretly protecting the royal family, eradicating dissidents, and even stealing intelligence in wars with other countries. Assassinations of political figures, even generals of enemy countries, were sometimes assassinated in military camps. But as time passed, the organization of the Eye of Insight changed. They began to sell royal information to other nobles for profit, and even helped foreign spies. , kidnapping the royal family. The people under them are also dishonest, and they often start new schemes, committing petty thefts, killing people, stealing goods, and robbing civilian girls. There is nothing they can't do, which makes the empire a mess. "
"Is there such a thing?" Everyone was very surprised.
"The then headmaster of Theodric College did not want to help the evildoers, so he stopped teaching and completely severed ties with the Eye of Insight. However, he was assassinated and fled south to Carmarthen until he met me and my people. .”
"He was already bruised and bruised, so we took him back for treatment."
"It took us fifteen days to pull him back from the gate of Hades. The first thing he said when he woke up was - 'No way! Unless I die!'."
"After calming down his emotions, he told me everything. He said that he must return to Branmore and that his students are still waiting for him."
"He also asked the clan leader to borrow troops. Seeing his sincerity, the clan leader agreed and personally led the veterans there. Before leaving, the clan leader asked us young people to stay in the city."
"I didn't expect that that would be the last time I saw the patriarch. Not long after the patriarch left, a bright light fell from the sky in the direction of Branmore, and then came from north to south. I swear it was the most powerful light I have ever seen in my life. The most horrific apocalyptic scene.”
"In just a few minutes, the beam of light penetrated the continent of Kalandia, dividing the continent into nearly a quarter with Brammel City as the center." Marnas sighed, "I don't know how long it took afterwards. The guy limped back to Carmarthen, and I asked him where the clan leader was, but he just had dull eyes and stared straight ahead without saying a word."
"Finally one day, he ran over like crazy, grabbed my shoulders, and said a bunch of things I didn't know what to say."
"But I vaguely remember a few important words."
"...Mer...Alien...Gate...Destroyer..."
"After saying this, he died." Marnus said this and took another sip of wine. "After burying him on the mountain near Carmarthen, I set off to Branmore to inquire about the old patriarch's story. When the news arrived, I heard from the locals that I didn’t know what happened that day. I only saw a figure descending from the sky. He raised his hand and shot out a ray of light. Then the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked. No matter what princes, nobles, imperial soldiers, or eyes of insight, There were still some elves that I had never seen before, and they were all swallowed up by the beam of light. The city of Brammore was also split into two, and countless people died..."
"I asked him again who is in charge now, and he said it was Corsi, the deputy principal of Theodoric College."
"So I found her, and after explaining her purpose, she first thanked me for saving the old principal, and also expressed her deep condolences for the patriarch who met with misfortune after helping her." Marnas said, Recalling that beautiful and wise woman, the corners of her unchanging mouth were slightly raised, as if it evoked some good memories.
......
"Mr. Marnus, there are some things that are not convenient to talk about here. Let's talk somewhere else." Korsi said in a low voice.
