I don’t know if it’s because Alaiya might not get used to it with [Xingjian] and [He Xun]. In the end, the commander of Yinwei only chose a long sword of Xingjian level for Alaiya, and it didn’t reach the level. He Xun is the highest. On the other hand, on Xi Luo's side, the Grand Commander of Yinwei did not hesitate to choose half a set of He Xun-level daggers for her.
The reason why it is said to be a half set is because the daggers in this set are 128 in total, of which 64 are at the Commander of Yinwei, and the remaining 64 were sent to Lide in 16 boxes. hands. This set of daggers is considered to be the strongest among the masterless daggers that can still be seen on the market. Lide thinks that the commander of the hidden guard probably regards himself as Helo's natal family, and he is still very generous in giving things to his own people. of.
The half set in the hands of the commander of the hidden guard is more comprehensive, including various poisoning, interrogation, destruction of corpses and traces, etc. The half set given to Hilo is relatively positive, and most of them are pure assassination . This is also related to Hilo's own personality. In fact, only with her can this half set of daggers have the greatest effect.
Lide, who got the sixteen boxes, immediately asked the commander of Yinwei:
"Do you think that each of these sixty-four daggers belongs to the He Xun class, or do they add up to the He Xun class?"
The commander-in-chief of Yinwei said that it is a pity that your guess is wrong. The answer is that the half set of He Xun can be considered a complete set of He Xun level equipment, and the sixty-four pieces given to you can only be called half a set of He Xun. He almost avenged the assassination of Little Slime on the spot.
After a night's rest in a hotel near the Lord's Mansion, Lide embarked on a journey southward.
Although recalling this trip to the north, there are many regrets that it is too late to make up for. For example, he didn't have a good time with Lanna in the end, and Lanna, as the little princess of the royal family, couldn't talk to him too much in public.
But when he thought that there were still people waiting for him to go back in the inn to the south, a smile could not help appearing on Lide's face.
…
Reject North Inn.
Alaya quietly wiped the long sword [Crimson Fire], the bright red lines on the silver sword were like extending blood vessels.
Since Garberd gave her the sword heart of "seeking", Alaya felt that her two completely different sword skills had greatly improved. The way of the sword is the way, and the heart of the sword is the heart. In the past, she always wanted to grow up quickly and reach the next level as soon as possible, so that no one in the world can bully her young master again, but this mood is a bit too impatient.
She doesn't know much about internal affairs, military affairs, surveillance, and her insight into people's hearts is not as good as others. What she thinks about every day is her young master: how to make the young master happier, how to make the young master full of food, how to keep the young master from being bullied... She did a good job in Lingyun City, maybe because of the young master's love at that time. She was also lucky, some thrilling assassinations were always avoided by him in various strange ways, but since she left Lingyun City, she felt a little powerless several times.
— So get stronger, get stronger.
The kendo taught to her by Lide and Qingyun is a heavy burden on her body. The young master taught herself the sword to kill people, but Qing Yun taught her the sword to save people. This was a conflict in her eyes. Li De can advise her on what to practice more recently based on the ebb and flow of sword qi. She is also trying to combine these two kinds of kendo, but it is still too hasty.
What Galberd gave her was not so great. Apart from raising her vast sword energy to a higher level, it was more about giving her a way to learn swords. Searching sometimes requires the courage to face up to many difficulties, and sometimes it requires decades of patience and restraint.
The young master is not around these days, Alaiya wakes up every morning, except for the normal meal and rest, the rest of the time is almost doing the same thing——
Wipe the sword.
While recalling the unattainable heights that Qingyun and Garberd reached before they died, he tried hard to restrain the blood in his chest and the thought of going out to practice swords, and quietly wiped the long sword in his hand. It was very painful at the beginning. "Although I can't reach it, I yearn for it" is not a beautiful state for her. She knows that she can't reach it in a short time but still yearns for it. The huge despair in the middle can only be understood after experiencing it.
While she had to overcome such despair, she also had to restrain her restless heart.
Worries about the young master, guilt about her own incompetence, confusion about the future, and irritability about this completely silent environment, these negative emotions would creep into her heart from time to time. She had to suppress them again and again, and refocus her attention on the way of swordsmanship.
Gradually, Alaiya felt as if she was immersed in a warm ocean.
After the original anxiety faded away, her understanding of kendo rose to a whole new level. It's just that these perceptions are purely accumulated at present, and they are not enough to really support her to pass that hurdle.
Alaiya would still think about the young master, thinking that if the young master didn't come back, she would be waiting here all the time. After a few years or decades, when I reach the tenth level, I will go to the north to find that woman, even if I change my life, I will kill her. Alaya has seen the army under Lord Lingwu, so she knows that she must become very strong in order to avenge the young master.
Stronger than Qingyun, stronger than Garberd.
Alaya turned [Crimson Fire]to the light, quietly looking at the mirror-clean sword.
But suddenly, those eyes froze.
Because besides her, another hazy figure appeared on the sword.
Alaya hurriedly turned her head and saw Lid standing at the door smiling happily. She stood up from the chair in an instant, and the sword in her hand fell to the ground with a clang. At that moment, all restraint and patience became false, Alaya looked at her young master quietly, opened her mouth, and tears filled her eyes in an instant.
Lide quickly stepped forward, walked in front of her, and gently rubbed her head:
"Don't cry, don't cry. You know, master, I have never been good at coaxing girls."
Alaiya desperately bit her trembling lips, trying not to cry, and wanted to smile at her young master.
But before that, Lid had reached out his hand and held her tightly in his arms.
He let out a long breath, feeling the familiar temperature in his arms, and the exhaustion accumulated for a long time finally came to his mind. The two people in Lingyun City used to depend on each other for life, and the two people in Yuxi City never left each other. Last year, he went to the capital together and killed the demons together, and he let Alaya accompany him. Even if it would add a certain burden to him, he would relax when he was with Alayah. This heart is at ease, everywhere is Yuxi City, and everywhere is home.
Being hugged by Lied, Alaya was a little flustered at first, and then quickly calmed down.
"I'm going to fetch water for the young master..."
She could feel Lied's weight pressing on her, and she knew that the young master was tired. She doesn't think about so many things, she just thinks that she should boil a bucket of hot water next, serve the young master to take a bath, and then carry the young master to the bed to have a good sleep.
Staring blankly at the ceiling, Alaya suddenly remembered for some reason what the magician Merlin had said to her when she was alone.
——"I said, this time is completely different from the previous situation. He went to fight against the sky above your head, so you are also on his side?"
— "The young master's enemy is my enemy, what's the problem?"
— "Oh. I hope you feel the same way in the future..."
Alaya only felt a sudden throbbing pain in her heart, but the brief pain quickly melted into her young master's body temperature.
How could he not be on the young master's side
I am the young master's man.
