"Okay, let's take a rest." Seeing that Rebecca had been here meditating with a gloomy face, Regnar completely lost his patience. He looked back at everyone and saw that many people still had doubts about him. Regner raised his hand as if admitting defeat: "The things about her and me cannot be explained in a few words. But I can guarantee that she will not hurt us."
"I just won't hurt you." Lisanna reminded in a low voice. After all, that number one almost killed Alexander, and judging from this woman's conversation tonight, she seemed to have a deep... um... hostility towards Annelotte. ? Or...jealousy? In short, despite Regnar's assurance, no one took it lightly.
Although the strongest assassin No. 1 of the Stoke Empire's Assassination Department is not as well-known as Regner, according to the knowledge of the senior leaders of the Hawke Empire, at least two digits of high-ranking empire generals have died at her hands. Let such a terrible assassin from the enemy camp, who has been burdened with blood debts, sleep next to him? Who can sleep
"Uh..." Regnar scratched his hair. Lisanna was right. His guarantee was not convincing at all. Moreover, even his trust in Rebecca was probably in an inexplicable state. The earth is naturally attracted. Regnar just believed in her for no reason, and he couldn't even express this kind of trust.
"And..." Lisanna looked at Annelotte who was a little uneasy, so she kindly asked a question on Annelotte's behalf. She pointed at Rebecca and said, "The rest of us are actually a little curious. Why does she... look so similar to you?"
"To be exact, it's like a female version of you." Mel said a little bit sinisterly. He could tell that Regna and Rebecca had a close relationship, but he didn't understand what it was exactly. But one thing the old guy knew very well was that his precious apprentice Annelotte would be a little unhappy if there was such a person around Regnar.
"I'm his sister." Rebecca intervened in the conversation again at some point. At this time, she had obviously made her own decision and adjusted her mood. The female assassin is now back to her original lazy and careless state. She walked slowly to Regnar, then put an arm on Regnar's shoulder and said, "Actually, I am his long-lost biological sister, that's why he trusts me so much, that's why I help him , is this explanation reasonable?”
"Damn it, the crazy setting that I inadvertently proposed at that time is now being used by you!" Regnar was spitting in his heart.
In fact, Regnar himself had many things he couldn't figure out about his relationship with Rebecca, but Rebecca, who knew all this, couldn't say anything about it. Wait...can't say? Regnar rolled his eyes. Rebecca's situation made him involuntarily contact the outsiders, and if that was the case... Regnar couldn't help but come up with another guess when he thought of this, but he did not ask Rebecca immediately.
And next, something happened that stunned Regnar. Rebecca perfectly conceived the story of her and Regnar's siblings: in Rebecca's story, the two of them became brothers and sisters who shared weal and woe, and her sister Rebecca fell into a trap in order to get milk for her brother. In the wrong hands. The subsequent plot is also full of blood: Rebecca ends up in the South Country by accident, and then becomes a female assassin by chance. After that, Regnar became famous, and the two met again during an assassination attack and defense. The similar appearance gave them some room for action, and the two of them fell in love and killed each other on the battlefield. Later, Rebecca found out through some clues that Regna was her long-lost biological brother. In the end, the two of them were lamenting the twists of fate. At this time, they were on the verge of forbidden love.
Regnar couldn't help but break into a cold sweat while listening to Rebecca's story. The forbidden love between the two people brought out by Rebecca in the end made Regnar even want to die. Fortunately, Rebecca restrained herself under Regnar's pleading eyes, and in the end, she did not frustrate Mel, who was already glaring after hearing this.
After talking about the relationship between the two, Rebecca made another amazing twist: "It is my duty to protect my brother. Since I can't stop you, let me join you!"
"Huh?" Regnar was stunned again. What kind of fun could this woman have
"Am I not strong enough?" Rebecca asked.
"That's enough, but why?"
"As a sister, isn't it normal to protect your younger brother?" Rebecca gave Regna a wink.
"Okay, okay..." Regnar waved his hand rather unhappily.
"You will need me." Rebecca looked at everyone and said seriously: "I think my strength has been proven just now, and I also have a lot of information about Nidhogg that you don't know. "
"But we can't believe your intentions." Zhu Xin said coldly: "Why do you help me?"
"I don't need all of you to believe in me." Rebecca was too lazy to talk nonsense with such a small character. She looked at Regna and said, "As long as he believes, that's enough. Do you believe me?"
"I..." Regnar looked at Rebecca's eyes and couldn't help but feel a little dazed. He suddenly read too many emotions in Rebecca's eyes. They were complex emotions accumulated over countless time and polished by countless experiences. Emotionally, Regnar couldn't tell from Rebecca's eyes what she had gone through. But Regnar clearly saw Rebecca's concern, loyalty and helplessness...
As if possessed, Regnar said almost subconsciously: "I believe you."
After some more negotiations, Mel and Lisanna finally recognized Rebecca's joining. As for what the three assassin brothers thought, Regnar didn't bother to care what the three of them thought. As for Annelotte on the other side, Regnar didn't dare to think about what she thought...
That night, Rebecca volunteered to stay vigil, and in order to prevent Rebecca from making any small moves at night, Annelotte, who had been silent, volunteered to stay with her. Thus, this pairing, which seemed awkward to outsiders, was born.
…
Rebecca and Annelotte were both silent that night. They sat in silence for a long time by the campfire.
"Aren't you going to say something to me? Speaking of which, you are probably my sister-in-law." Rebecca was the first to break the silence.
"First of all, I have nothing to do with Regnar, and secondly, you are not her sister." Annelotte said coldly.
Rebecca didn't refute, she leaned forward a little, put her chin in her hands and asked curiously: "How do you know I'm not her sister?"
"Because you are a heretic."
As soon as Annelotte's words came out, the atmosphere between the two suddenly solidified. Rebecca stared at the indifferent Annelotte, and after a while she asked coldly: "What evidence do you have?"
Annelotte stared at Rebecca and said: "I also know about your assassination of Alexander. I investigated you afterwards. First of all, I found that although you have assassinated some high-ranking generals in recent years, most of them They are all just insignificant and false officials, which proves that you dare not have a big impact on the structure of the two empires. Secondly, the time between each of your assassinations is relatively long, which is why you need time to recover from the origin after each assassination. Proof of recovery under the punishment of the rules. Finally, you vomited blood just now when you talked about Regnar's life experience. This proves that there are many rules that bind you, and the most likely reason is that you are a heretic creature."
"Don't you think your evidence is far-fetched?" Rebecca asked.
"Maybe, but I just have that gut feeling."
"Then why didn't you expose me to my face just now?" Rebecca refused.
Annelotte turned her head and looked at the wilderness outside the black screen spell and said: "Because there is no need. If you are a heretic creature, then you cannot and dare not do anything to us. The most important thing for us now is to solve the crisis at hand. , since you can get away with that reason, there is no need for me to cause any more trouble for everyone."
"Are you causing trouble for Regnar?" Rebecca asked jokingly.
"Whatever you think, I'm too lazy to explain this matter."
"The reason why you took the initiative to monitor me is to avoid conflicts between me and other people? I suddenly understand why Regnar is so fascinated by you." Rebecca looked at Annelotte, unwillingness and helplessness flashed in her eyes.
Annelotte said no more, just looked into the distance in silence.
