Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop!
The blade is like a raging wind! The wind is like a blade!
"Haha! That's awesome!!" Shiloh laughed.
With a resounding clang, Hilo unleashed a powerful final strike, shattering the wind around the two of them.
The two were thrown backwards at the same time, and then came to a standing position again.
"Hahahahaha—!!" Hilo slammed the knife on the ground and laughed, completely ignoring the long hair sticking haphazardly to his face. "Awesome! So awesome!"
This Gale Blade Technique is perfect for me!
As expected of you, Annie Carl!!
An Yi nodded expressionlessly, and the sword in her hand disappeared: "As long as it suits you."
Marehoo flashed over and stood next to An Yi, looking eager to try: "Senior brother! Actually, I've learned it too! I want to..."
An Yi suddenly turned her head at lightning speed and stared straight at her: "No."
Master your Raging Wind Sword Technique.
Also, this matter must not be known to the master.
"Huh...?" Marie was startled.
Suddenly, An Yi's face became expressionless, and even the way her eyes turned remained unchanged.
But for some reason, she always felt that if she told her master about this, her senior brother would definitely not forgive her!
An Yi looked at Shiro: "You keep it a secret too, just say you figured it out yourself."
"Okay! Keep it a secret!" Hilo patted his chest and agreed readily. "My mouth is the tightest seal. I guarantee that silly elf won't know a single word!"
An Yi has done her a great favor by helping her understand this sword technique; how could she not even keep a secret?
"Um... why is Senior Brother afraid of Master finding out?" Marie asked directly.
She doesn't beat around the bush or try to hide anything; she asks questions when she doesn't understand.
"What's so hard to understand!"
Hilo answered first;
"Just think of it as your husband saying he likes you, but actually saying the same thing to another woman outside."
Your senior brother is ostensibly that silly elf's eldest disciple, but he's actually quite skilled in another sword technique as well. Do you think your master would be happy about that?
"Oh! I understand!" Marie nodded vigorously. "Even though I don't have a husband, I still understand!"
"Moreover, that silly elf has always refused to teach me the Raging Wind Sword Technique."
Now, things have taken a turn for the better; her top disciple, Annie Karl, has taught me a proper sword technique.
"If she finds out, I don't know how funny her expression will be, hahaha—" Shiloh said with a loud laugh.
She cheered up, as if she had returned to her old carefree self.
Her true nature hasn't changed drastically; it's just become more mature based on it. (Seven [←ba〉％0·∑)
“Actually, I’m a little worried that Master might have already heard it,” Marie grinned.
“I’m worried too,” Hilo said, “but what’s the use of worrying? We can’t prevent it.”
"If she were still in the fortress, there would be no need to worry; who knows why she suddenly wanted to move here."
"What happened?" Annie asked, seemingly unconcerned, continuing the conversation.
"We're fighting our own battle, it's none of her business. Maybe they're afraid the demons will retaliate and find her out?"
Hilo recalled the events strangely, then suddenly realized;
"Was she afraid of this that day?"
"Which day? What happened?" An Yi asked immediately.
“This…” Shiloh thought back.
Chapter 203 The Date (4k)
"This... let me think about it."
After thinking for a moment, Hilo spoke.
"It was probably around the time shortly after Black Crow City was discovered."
I originally wanted to ask her about something related to that city, but when I found her, she looked like she was about to die.
It looked just like when Cecilia was a child and heard thunder, she was so scared that she huddled in the chair.
Then she suddenly left for a moment, and then quickly came back. I don't know what she went to do.
That's all Hilo could say, mainly because she had absolutely no idea what had happened.
The whole thing seemed absurd; even she couldn't figure it out.
"Does Master have anything to fear?" Marie asked, puzzled.
"Perhaps I'm just overthinking it," An Yi said calmly. "It's easy for a person to have wild thoughts."
"Oh, right! That's possible!" Marie exclaimed, clasping her hands together in sudden realization.
Hilo casually remarked, "But it was around that time that she said she wanted to leave the fortress and move here."
It's said that it's easier to collect materials for making magical items here.
There was no other way; the fortress was on the border, nowhere near as luxurious as this place. We had to move.
Although Shiloh often asks Evie various questions, it doesn't mean he's helpless without her. (Part 3)
She could cope with losing her parents; separation wasn't as difficult as she had imagined.
After hearing all this, An Yi didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she said that she had just arrived after a long journey and needed to go back to rest.
After a brief farewell, he was led back to his room by the believers, and he kept thinking about something.
Once he got to his room and closed the door, he lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.
Something that even Irene was afraid of...
She had experienced wars that were completely incomprehensible to humans, and her strength was on par with the Demon King's seventy-two royal servants.
If there's anything that frightens her, it's probably only beings of the King-level Demon race or higher.
An Yi felt something was wrong. She wondered if her master had some kind of nightmare that made him feel inexplicably threatened, which was why he chose to leave the fortress.
The opportunity arose from a small demon viscount's city?
Until we get the answer from Elaine, all speculation is too weak and unconvincing.
It could even be said that the change was made suddenly on Elaine's whim.
"I'll ask the master again tonight."
An Yi was thinking about it in her mind, too lazy to cover herself with a blanket, and fell asleep soon after lying in bed.
……
At night, An Yi simply used [Formless] to conjure a pair of glasses before going out with Ireif, who was wearing a hood.
“You’re a big celebrity here, everyone knows you. Aren’t you afraid of being recognized with this level of disguise?” Elaine asked with a smile.
“There’s a guy named Clark Kent who’s more famous than me, and even if he wore this, nobody would recognize him,” Annie said calmly, adjusting her black-rimmed glasses.
"Who is that person? Could they be more famous than you, the Sword Hero?" Irene muffled the sound of the words "Sword Hero" when she said them.
"Superman."
"?"
I've never heard of that before.
This is the holy city of the Aldrich Church, a major metropolis that ranks among the top in the entire human territory.
With its well-equipped lighting facilities, the streets are dazzling at night, a level of prosperity that other small cities cannot match.
Most people in this world probably can't understand how there could be a place that's as bustling as a morning market at night.
The shops are brightly lit and offer a wide variety of goods 24 hours a day; most shops don't even close.
Most of the pedestrians on the street were dressed in white, without many fancy styles, making a stroll through the street feel like a pilgrimage for thousands of people.
Walking down the street, Irene occasionally gasped in surprise.
Such streets don't exist in the land of elves, and one can't experience such liveliness and prosperity.
The total number of elves is already small, and their living areas are very separate. Moreover, they live off the land and water, so there is no need for them to go shopping like this.
"Has Master not explored this area yet?" An Yi asked.
"Yeah, I haven't been around. I've been in my room since I arrived," Elaine replied, glancing around at the surroundings.
"Really? This is my first time here too."
An Yi took out a booklet from her pocket and opened it. It contained recommendations from Felia after a day of sightseeing.
Letting An Yi arrange these things is practically killing him; how would he know where the fun is?
For him, shopping was meaningless. In the past, he was only dragged to town by his mother and sister.
and so!
His reliable junior sister has prepared everything for him!
The booklet not only provides detailed location recommendations, but also suggests what topics to bring up when things are quiet, and even what to say and do to a girl in different situations to make her happy.
An Yi roughly remembered it, but... he would never do those things.
His master inexplicably fell for him again in this life, which was already a headache for him, so how could he dare to flirt with him again?
On the way, Irene saw decorative gold-rimmed glasses behind a glass shop window and had a sudden inspiration.
"Anyi, why don't you buy one of those and wear it?" she asked, pointing to the shop window.
"Why?" Annie asked.
“I think…” Elef whispered in Annie’s ear.
