The first thing I did when I returned to Yuxi City was to rub Alaya's head and complain to her:
"Alaya~~I was bullied so badly when you were not around~~"
Aleya bit her lip and listened to me cry, looking sulky.
She put one hand on the sword at her waist, I think the situation is almost over, so stop crying to her quickly, lest she get mad and go to the sea of clouds to chop people.
I pressed Alayah's shoulder and said:
"Don't be impulsive, Aleiya, even if I can bear it, you can too. From today on, practice for a period of time every day, and break through as soon as possible. I'll take me all the way back when you reach the tenth level of swordsmanship."
Alaya lowered her hand from the sword hilt at her waist and said:
"I see."
She glanced at He Yue behind me, and He Yue was also looking at her.
After a while, it was He Yue who took the initiative to greet her and said:
"It's Miss Alaya. Hello, I'm Heyue. I'm invited by Lord Lide to manage the internal affairs of Yuxi City. I'm also close to Lord Lide. Please give me your advice."
Aleya stretched out her hand, shook hands with He Yue, and said:
"Well. If the young master trusts you, you are also a trustworthy person. I will hand over the task records I have been in charge of during this period to you, and I will leave Yuxi City to you."
"The responsibility lies."
After two brief conversations, I asked Alaya:
"Why didn't you see Felita?"
Alaya looked a little unnatural:
"Fillita...something happened."
I frowned:
"What happened?"
Alaya nodded:
"Zhaochen's army came once, and there was also a large army from the east. In addition, the demons came to harass as always, and Felita should be too tired from using magic power day after day."
I squinted at Alaya, who looked down at me. I stretched out my hand suddenly, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her sleeve away with the other hand. It was found that there was a bandage wrapped under her long sleeves, but she just used the sleeves to cover it up. I held her wrist and asked:
"Who did it?"
Alaya said softly:
"It's all right, master."
I turned up the volume a bit:
"Who did it?"
Aleya bit her lip, and after a while said:
"The people in the north. We really can't fight... If there is no double-layer city wall built by the young master, the Yuxi City is probably already..."
He Yue asked:
"North? People from Zhaochen? Is it a young boy with a girl in a wheelchair next to him?"
I glanced at He Yue.
River Moon explained:
"Zhaochen is the youngest city lord who directly borders Yuxi City. He is nothing to worry about, but the thirteen daughter of Lord Zhaochen next to him has been famous for a long time and is a famous tactical genius. If she It’s really hard to deal with if you bring troops over.”
I sighed and said to Alaya:
"Didn't you say that you were wronged, so you smashed the waist ornament I gave you?"
Alaya chuckled and said:
"It's okay, young master, am I fine? What's more, Alaiya's life is worthless..."
I slapped Alaya's head lightly, and said:
"Don't be brave. Don't practice swords these days, come to my room every night and tell you stories. Just like before."
Alaya nodded, and I said:
"Take me to see Felita."
Alaya bit her lip and said hesitantly:
"But Felita said, you can't let the young master go over..."
That's why there are ghosts.
When I first mentioned Felita, Alaya's eyes averted a little, and I felt that something was wrong.
Alayah hesitated for a moment, but in my presence, she couldn't refuse. As long as I act a little tougher, Alayah will obediently listen to me.
I asked Heyue to take over Alaiya's work first, and took the time to get familiar with the environment with my assistants.
Alaiya took me to a warehouse-like hut that was not used very much.
Standing at the door, Alaya knocked lightly on the door.
A weak voice came from the room:
"Alaya...?"
Alaya said softly:
"it's me."
The door opened.
A haggard face was exposed through the crack of the door, the fair and charming face was vaguely black, and a haggard white hair was scattered on the shoulders. The wide dress covered her curvy figure. Felita stared at me with golden eyes, looked at me in a daze, didn't react for a while, looked again, then screamed suddenly, and wanted to push the door shut. With quick eyesight and quick hands, I inserted my foot directly into the crack of the door, and the door was stuck.
Felita stepped back quickly, covering her cheeks with both hands, and murmured:
"Don't look at me, don't look at me. Master... please, please..."
I gave Alaya a wink to tell her to wait at the door, then went straight into the house and kicked the door shut. There was only one oil lamp lit in the room, and Felita quickly extinguished the light as if she had found a life-saving straw. The room was dark, and only Felita's sobbing could be heard:
"Don't hate me, master, don't abandon me. I am willing to do anything, I promise you anything... don't... don't abandon me. Such an ugly, lowly... mixed with demon blood..."
I opened my mouth and didn't speak, just walked over in the dark and held Felita in my arms.
Felita knelt on the ground, struggling constantly, for fear of touching me.
I exerted some strength until she leaned her head against my arms, biting her rosy lips and crying, before she opened her mouth and said:
"what happens?"
Felita grabbed my arm with trembling hands and said incoherently:
"I used... the power of the demons... I dreamed of them. The people I killed entangled me, this is their curse... I can't escape, I can't hide... They come to me It's...!!"
Felita opened her mouth. In the darkness, her body temperature was very low.
She slowly told me what happened during this time.
