The camping trip ended in a hurry in the morning.

After Xia Mi returned to his house, he locked the door from the inside and walked back and forth irritably in the house.

Why did this white-haired man say something so cruel? Why did he want to kill the Demon King with his own hands and drive all the demons out of the continent? It sounded like a line that would kill someone!

He shouldn't have offended her before, probably not, but he has almost forgotten the memory of a year and a half ago.

By the way, it’s completely impossible to tell that she is a stronger swordsman than Cass!

A great swordsman of this level should not have learned any strange skills and can automatically sense the strange existence around him.

A series of questions swirled in Xia Mi's mind, making him forget that he still had a mission to visit slimes today, and even had the idea of ​​running away with a bucket.

But after thinking about it, I haven't reached that desperate situation yet.

After locking himself in the room and walking back and forth until evening, Xia Mi's irritable heart gradually calmed down.

The Exiled Swordsman incident had just ended, and before he could develop for a while, a more ferocious white-haired swordsman came. Things are getting more and more troublesome.

But the situation is not impossible to save.

After calming down and carefully considering what he might have to deal with next, he was still confident that he could hide his identity.

Changing his life in another place is a great challenge for him. As a demon king who is only level 6, Yili Village, a novice village, is currently the best hiding place. Unless he had to, he didn't want to leave this village where he was familiar with everything around him.

Although Bai Mao is already a level 72 great swordsman, there are still many doubtful points about her.

For example, she seemed completely unaware of the outrageous harm she had caused to the Demon King?

From this, it can be inferred that she is somewhat unaware of her abilities?

Secondly, judging from how Baimao took the initiative to give him a water balloon as soon as she saw him, does it mean that she actually has a good relationship with him?

The most important thing is that the identity of the demons is very hidden. Baimao doesn't know his identity yet. In her heart, he is just an ordinary villager.

As long as you hide your identity, act low-key, and find a suitable opportunity to trick Baimao away, you should be able to get through this incident.

If it doesn't work, he will leave here when the time comes.

Xia Mi's brain was working rapidly. When the messy threads in his mind were slowly smoothed out, he stopped moving irritably.

For now, maintain normal villager daily activities, and then reduce contact with white fur.

Ah ha, yes, that's true.

Today the villagers' task is to weed.

Xia Mi took out the packed luggage from the Demon King's Ring, rearranged it in the house, picked up the shovel, opened the door and prepared to start working.

A white-haired man standing in front of his door staggered and tried to pull back the upper body that was leaning forward to listen.

"…….What are you doing?"

"Ahem, well, I haven't been back to the village for a long time... I've been thinking about whether this is your home... I was checking the door just now to see if there was still the mark I left on the door by accidentally scratching it with my fingernail two years ago..."

Bai Mao put his right hand in front of his mouth, coughed lightly, and then said seriously.

"Then you should identify the landmarks for me!"

Xia Mi took two steps back.

"Why are you looking for me?"

Lina opened her mouth slightly, hesitated, hesitated, and finally looked at Xia Mi.

"Xia Mi, we haven't seen each other for a long time... How have you been during this time..."

"It's okay." Xia Mi thought for a while.

A month ago, everything was perfectly normal. Now, after getting used to the dual identities of villager and devil, I can live quite well.

"That's great... After returning to the room, I couldn't sleep. I felt more and more depressed... I always wanted to find someone to chat with..."

Lina's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Cuckoo"

Bai Mao looked away and touched his belly awkwardly.

"..."



Tavern.

"Lina, long time no see! Are you finally back?"

The tavern owner entertained Lina warmly, and the villagers who gathered at the bar to drink also said hello. Lina was embarrassed to respond to everyone's warm greetings.

Xia Mi looked at the people around him in confusion.

Isn’t there anyone who complained about Bai Mao’s huge changes?

That's all, he is tired today, so he won't complain.

The two sat down at the round table in the corner. After ordering a table of dishes, Lina began to eat meat.

I had obviously eaten a lot at noon, but now I was hungry again.

She probably didn't eat much in the past month and was starving.

"Xia Mi, thank you...I will remember the money and pay it back to you slowly in the future..."

Xia Mi held his face with one hand and waved with the other hand.

"Remember to calculate the interest."

"Yeah. If it doesn't work, you can ask me to compensate in other ways..."

Xia Mi quietly looked at Bai Mao in front of him. After a brief contact, he found that Bai Mao was quite friendly towards him.

It's just a good opportunity to clear up some doubts. For example, her strength and why she suddenly took risks.

"By the way, why did you leave the village without saying a word..."

Xia Mi asked, leaning back on his chair.

Lina, who was eating, suddenly stopped. After swallowing the food in her mouth, she looked at Xia Mi with her indigo eyes.

"Has Xia Mi forgotten our agreement..."

"It's obviously such an important agreement..."

"I relied on the faith formed by this agreement to survive along the way..."

Bai Mao suddenly looked aggrieved and wanted to cry. The two of them originally attracted the attention of everyone in the tavern, but now, many passing villagers looked over.

Xia Mi waved his hands repeatedly, not wanting to continue asking this topic.

"Of course I remember... I'm just worried about you..."

"Don't worry, I will definitely abide by this agreement." Lina said, stunned for a moment, as if begging, "I hope that after killing the Demon King, Xia Mi can abide by this agreement..."

So, what the hell is this agreement? Why do you keep mentioning it? Bai Mao, you are definitely a Riddler! I'll be damned if I kill the devil!

Xia Mi's hands under the table were clenched into fists.

"By the way, what are your plans for the future?"

"Well... let's stay in the village for now... Before the Demon King appears, I'm going to improve my swordsmanship... This time, I won't fail again!" Lina said seriously.

"Let me tell you, Xia Mi, I went on an adventure this time and met a very good teacher. She led me to the path of a swordsman. I am now a level 72 swordsman, although I only know a few words. A sword style..."

"But my teacher is a super powerful Ji Swordsman. I met her on the way to defeat the Demon King... I received a lot of care from her along the way... Although there were still many difficulties along the way... Even bathing was a problem..."

Lina spoke her heart out in front of Xia Mi, showing a bitter or aftertasteful smile from time to time. The noise in the tavern seemed to become ethereal under her clear voice, and the lights in the entire tavern seemed to dim, leaving only her head. The bunch on her head was lit like a floodlight, and her silver hair was draped behind her waist like a fringe. She had a smile as bright as snow and her eyes were moving. On the table in front of her, she drank a lot of juice on one side and half-eaten on the other. The steak, the vase with little flowers, and everything around her seemed to be brought into that memory that only belonged to her.

Xia Mi held up her cheeks and looked at the white-haired girl quietly. After rolling her eyes meaninglessly, she looked at the wall clock behind her.

The pub was about to close, so even if she still wanted to eat, he had a reason not to order.
