Anna wiped her eyes and reconfirmed the figure who was walking into her sight. It has been more than two years, and Ella no longer wears the purple robe that symbolizes her status, and her movements also show a slight barbarian roughness. But as Ella's cousin, even if Ella is among a thousand people and only her back is exposed, Anna can pick her out in an instant.
Anna has heard from the navy these days that a woman is commanding the pirate kingdom's navy. But even if Anna were asked to list a hundred possible people, Ella, who doesn't know magic and has a somewhat weird acting style, wouldn't be on the list.
"She actually became a high-ranking general of the Pirate Kingdom?"
This is an extremely unusual thing. Amy is already an elf-level magician, and she can get along well among pirates. But Ella, what abilities and qualifications does she have to command this large group of pirates?
Anna suddenly remembered the familiar slings in the siege camp, the city of Azov that was suddenly cut off from water, and the fire of the ocean loaded on the ships of the Pirate Kingdom.
"She... betrayed the Qiqiu Empire?"
——I’m afraid I even sold my body. That was the only thing her sister could use.
Thinking of this, Ana suddenly felt a surge of anger rushing into her mind.
Amy is from a civilian background, so it is understandable that she would compromise in order to survive. But Ella is a member of the royal family who inherited the bloodline of Scipio. Does she have no royal dignity at all?
"Ah, yes...she is the son of a prostitute."
Anna slowly aimed her bow at Ella.
"The bastard...the scum of the Scipio family...go to hell."
Ella was completely unaware of Anna's hostility. She heard that the pirates had discovered Anna's whereabouts, and ran to the scene happily.
"Next, you will go door-to-door to search! However, I must set three rules for you!"
Ella raised three fingers in front of everyone:
"First, no robbery! I have my own way to get the money, but the relationship with the Republic of Liguria will affect my future strategic policy! This time it is because of the contract with the island republic that I have to send troops, but in diplomacy , we have to leave some room for others, and we cannot turn the other party into a mortal enemy!"
"Second! The person you want to arrest is my sister! She is a delicate little girl, so be gentle! Don't accidentally break the bones!"
"Third... I haven't thought about it yet! In short, the opposite side is worth two hundred thousand Nomes horses. If you catch her, each of you can get a full twenty Nomes horses! For many of you, it is Nearly ten years of income! Come on!"
The pirates let out a cheer.
Anna's arrow whizzed at this moment.
Under the aggressive magic, only two people reacted. One of them was Amy, who sensed the familiar magic approaching and immediately threw Ella to the ground; the second person was Glahid, who had an extremely sensitive intuition for arrows missing. When he sensed the arrows approaching, his head shook. Without raising his hand, he stretched out his hand and caught the arrow shot by Anna. Almost at the same time, he put the captured arrow on his bow and shot it back in the opposite direction!
Unfortunately, Anna's shooting position was outside the range of Glahid's bow. But this was enough to surprise Anna - the last person who caught her missing arrow like this was Osol, the one who kidnapped Dast, and what Glahid did just now was exactly the same as Osol!
"I didn't notice the magic power... How did you achieve such superb archery skills?"
Just as Anna was talking to herself, Ella pushed Amy away and struggled to get up, asking loudly: "What happened just now? Did someone want to kill me?"
Glahid grabbed three arrows from his quiver, stared at the direction where the arrow had just been shot, and replied: "King of Sweden, an arrow just shot directly at you, and it was a magic arrow. .”
"Magic arrows?"
Ella gave Amy a questioning look. Amy replied softly: "It's the protection of Artemis..."
"The protection of Artemis? Does that mean it's my sister Anna? Does she want to kill me?"
"Your Majesty, I... dare not make random guesses."
Seeing Amy's look, Ella understood everything immediately.
"Anna Cornelia Scipio, the daughter of the traitor Sue Cornelius Scipio..."
She closed her eyes and tightened her fingers one by one. Dirty bastard, ugly blond hair, the daughter of a prostitute... The humiliation she encountered that night came up like a tide, and she was immersed in it, almost suffocating.
"The war is over. Since Anna is still ready to kill me, I have only one way to deal with it. Capture her, life or death - no, that's not right," Ella shook her head, and then said in an even more angry tone, "...I just want to die."
Another arrow was shot towards Ella. This time, Anna was a little more serious. Glahid's response was equally swift. When he sensed the arrow approaching, he shot an arrow in the opposite direction and actually intercepted Anna's arrow in mid-air. Anna's arrow was hit from bottom to top by Glahid's arrow, and immediately changed its trajectory and flew past Ella's head.
Anna angrily prepared to shoot another arrow. Unexpectedly, as soon as her hand touched the quiver, an arrow was already flying in the direction of her. While she was taking the arrow, Glahid had already put the second arrow along the path of Anna's arrow. The trajectory shot out!
Since Glahid couldn't shoot the arrow as far as Anna, the arrow deviated from the trajectory of Anna's arrow after flying halfway. But Anna was completely shocked by this arrow - this rate of fire was far beyond her imagination!
Dast didn't notice Anna's inner wavering and interjected: "This archery skill is similar to Osol's. I heard Osol said that his archery skill is the second in Britain. Could it be that that person is the best in Britain? Right? Speaking of which, Britain is famous for its archery skills. If you are the best in Britain, you should be the best in the world..."
In the field of vision, Glahid was protecting Ella and moving aside, as if he wanted to lead Ella away from this place of right and wrong first.
Anna poured all her power into the third arrow. This time, she aimed directly at Glahid.
"Whether he is the best in the world or not will only be clear after this shot!"
Anna's third arrow shot out in response, with an overwhelming force. Glahid shot an arrow at it as before. But when the two arrows collided, Anna's arrow was not shaken at all. Glahid immediately shot the second arrow and the third arrow... During the time when Anna's bow and arrow were flying, Glahid shot four arrows in a row. Anna's arrow finally moved a little bit and rubbed against Glahid's shoulder. flew over.
With Glahid's reaction speed, he could easily dodge the arrow. But he chose to use his bow to fight head-on, obviously deliberately trying to compete with Anna.
"It's a pity that the new moon has just appeared!"
Anna broke the string angrily. This is the time of the month when her magic power is weak, otherwise, the outcome is still uncertain.
"It's bad!" Dast shouted in panic, pointing out the window, "They are running in our direction... pointing at our house! Our position seems to have been locked by them! "
