The Sword and The Shadow

Chapter 48: Another rescue

Views:

"Every time I appear, it's so timely." When Regnar saw Annelotte, he wanted to hold her and kiss her.

She came just in time. Whether it was the last time in the Mercenary Alliance or this time here, Annelotte always appeared suddenly at the critical moment to save herself from danger.

When he was a child, the legendary stories told by the old man were all about heroes saving beauties. Regnar never expected that two beauties would be rescued in his life in just two days... Uh... Regner can't be considered a hero, he can only be considered a hero. What a brat. But Regna didn't mind being rescued. Being alive was better than anything else, not to mention that the person who rescued him was a beauty.

"Let him go, I'll let you leave." Annelotte still had the same cold and commanding tone.

Regnar wanted to grin at Annelotte and say hello, but he didn't expect that Annelotte had never looked at him since she appeared. She just stared at the already-haired man in front of her with her beautiful light blue eyes. A man with broken blood, this made Regnar a little worried whether Annelotte was coming to save him.

The man stared at Annelotte at the door, his face uncertain.

Long before returning to Falling Star City, Balor had specifically told him that there were a few people he must not mess with. The girl in front of him was one of them. He didn't know this girl's name or her identity. He had never heard of this person.

But this did not prevent him from recognizing Annelotte, because Annelotte's features were too obvious. Whether it was the cold and indifferent temperament or the short blue hair, he recognized at first sight that this was Lord Balor. The girl who warned me to be careful.

The current situation makes him a little hesitant. Once what he is doing with Balor is exposed, I am afraid that neither the Eye of the Secret nor the Lord of the Falling Star City will let them go. But Balor also clearly ordered not to have any conflict with this girl, and he didn't know what to do now.

While Regna was in a daze, the two followers suddenly jumped behind Regna and subdued him. The cold touch of the sword on his neck made Regnar's hair stand on end. He looked at Annelotte and didn't say much.

Regnar believed that as long as Annelotte appeared, nothing would happen to him. This was not because the previous events had made him feel dependent on Annelotte, it was just a kind of trust. He believed that Annelotte would save him from here.

Although he didn't get along with Annelotte for long, Regnar developed a sense of intimacy and trust towards this girl in a very short period of time. This was almost for no reason, but Regnar had it. This feeling.

"Leave immediately, or I will kill this kid now." A follower threatened fiercely. The girl in front of him could release the fifth-level mana wall spell, so he also understood that there was no way that he and the others could be her opponents. He could only Use some despicable means to force her back.

"Let him go now, and I promise we won't say anything. Otherwise, I can kill you and save him alive." Annelotte's eyes bloomed with a blue light, and then everyone felt The temperature of the indoor air began to drop sharply, and white smoke appeared faintly around Annelotte's body, which was formed by the moisture in the air condensing into ice at low temperatures.

It must be said that Annelotte's threat was very effective, and the biting cold also cooled the three people's somewhat heated brains. They looked at Annelotte with some fear, with struggle in their eyes.

"In that case, let him go." Pild suddenly interrupted from a corner, but his eyes were staring straight at Annelotte, and he didn't even notice that the saliva at the corner of his mouth was about to freeze into ice. It was obvious that this timid and lustful idiot was fascinated by Annelotte's appearance.

Feeling Pild's unabashed lustful gaze, Annelotte's face still showed no change in expression.

But the other three people were frightened. They didn't know what would happen to the girl in front of them once this bold young master's actions offended the girl in front of them. After all, in addition to being a beautiful girl, she was also a terrifying middle-level person. mage.

"Let him go!" The man finally couldn't bear the pressure brought by the cold air and said to his entourage.

Seeing that their young master and man had already spoken, these two minions naturally would not insist on anything. They looked at each other and pushed Regna over.

Regnar limped towards Annelotte. His left leg was sprained due to the stagger just now, and it was also swollen. However, the pain caused by the seven or eight wounds on his body was even stronger. But he still gritted his teeth and didn't want to show any weakness - being rescued was already a bit embarrassing, and he didn't want to give in in front of Annelotte because of a little pain.

Annelotte looked at Regnar, and after confirming that he could still move, she turned and left without saying a word, with Regnar following closely behind.

"This beautiful lady, I think there must be some misunderstandings about what happened tonight. I don't ask the lady to forgive us for our mistakes, but I wonder if the lady can tell Pilder your name. Pilder will definitely come to your door to apologize to you in the future." Pilder used his own style to deliberately speak in a slightly magnetic voice, trying to attract Annelotte's attention.

But Annelotte didn't even look at him, and continued to walk forward on her own. However, Regna turned his head, leaving an ironic look in his eyes and walked away.

"Who is that girl?" Pilder obviously did not give up.

"Sorry Master, we don't know." The attendant replied.

"Then check it for me!" Naturally, he would not have a good attitude when facing his follower Pilder.

"I advise you, young master, not to do this. Lord Balor once told her that that girl... doesn't seem to be easy to mess with." The man advised. He didn't want to delay Balor's affairs because of Pild's trivial desires.

"Hmph, I don't believe there are things in Falling Star City that I can't mess with! The women I like must be mine!" Pild replied viciously, causing the man to frown unconsciously.

Regnar looked at Annelotte's back and said, "This time... um... thank you this time, you saved me again."

Annelotte stopped, glanced back at Regnar, and then said as she walked: "How is your injury?"

"It's nothing, it's just a skin injury. Apply some medicine to the wound and it should be healed soon." Regnar pretended to be nonchalant and said, even though his face was already as pale as paper.

"At this rate, if you don't receive treatment within ten minutes, your life may be in danger due to excessive blood loss." Annelotte naturally saw Regner's injury when she turned back just now, and she didn't like it very much. Regnar was so stubborn that he deliberately scared him.

"Ah, haha. Well, I have to go back and take care of the wound right now. You know, it doesn't look good with so much blood on your body, right?" Regnar's face turned from white to green in an instant, and he was ready to go to the bright stars. run.

"Wait." Annelotte stopped Regnar.

"Anything else?"

Annelotte hesitated for a moment, and then said: "You can't return to the bright stars with such an injury. You'd better come with me."

Annelotte took him to a nearby residential house. Although it was not a very large courtyard, after seeing the elegant layout, even a mountain cannon like Regnar who had never seen the world knew that those who only knew how to build luxurious noble residences and this courtyard with the smell of copper would not be able to do anything about it. comparable.

"Do you live here?" Regnar nodded secretly at the layout of the courtyard.

"Yes, but don't tell others." Annelotte was too lazy to talk to him. He called a servant and asked him to help Regnar treat his wounds.

Annelotte sat in the living room and thought quietly. She had been following Regnar since night. Although Villes only asked her to practice as mercenaries with Regnar, Annelotte also knew that the president How much do you value this boy

So even though she was not inferior to Regnar in terms of status or potential, Annelotte still consciously acted as a bodyguard beside Regnar. This was not the president's order, but her own wish.

Through today's events, Annelotte also confirmed Balor's plans these days. Although the guild had already made some plans, she still thought about the whole matter and wrote a letter to ask the servant to send it to the guild. Headquarters.

"Hiss." Regnar sucked in cold air from the corner of his mouth that was torn by the ointment. He turned to look at the servant who was treating the wound expressionlessly, and then asked, "How long has Annelotte lived here?"

"Twelve years." The servant replied, and his cold tone made Regnar finally understand how Annelotte became such a character.

"Really? I remember she also had a teacher. Where is the Archmage?" Regnar asked again.

"The master is out because of some things." the servant replied.

"That's right." Regnar nodded. He was a little skeptical about Annelotte's identity at first, because she rescued him twice in time. Although Regnar's danger was solved each time, it has to be said that her two This move was too timely and too coincidental, which could not help Regner having some doubts about Annelotte.

But seeing that what the servant said was exactly the same as Annelotte's previous introduction, Regnar couldn't help but laugh at his own paranoia. Her life had been saved twice, so what else was there to doubt
