Shen Fu smiled bitterly and shook his head. Fortunately, at first he thought Esdeath was a just man who was willing to sacrifice himself for his subordinates. Now it seems that he is clearly a militant who respects the strong and the weak have no right to live. If it was just that, it would be fine, but in order to continue to fight wars, she ignored and even deliberately promoted the corruption of the empire. The generosity she showed to her subordinates in peacetime was just so that her subordinates could carry out her orders during the war.
"Judging from the settings in the animation, your contact with her has left a deep impression on her. After all, you completely meet her courtship standards."
Beatrice smiled evilly. In her opinion, Esdeath's character was too incompatible with her contractor. It could even be said that she was completely opposite to a "hero" like Shen Fu. If Esdeath If Si likes Shen Fu...it must be interesting.
"Dong——"
Shen Fu hit Beatrice on the head with a knife, then gently pinched her cheeks with both hands, showing a vicious expression.
"Betty! You already know her character, why don't you tell me! Where did you hide my lovely elf!"
Now he felt his face heat up when he thought about his admiration for Esdeath before. It was completely a misunderstanding on his own, and it might have caused some serious misunderstanding.
"Well, well, Betty is very cute. I'll pinch you again."
After playing around with the cute Beatrice, Shen Fu lay on the bed and thought seriously. Let’s not mention the matter of Esdeath. From a value perspective, this world still has great value, no matter how many years it is. The Teigu with nearly black technology are still dangerous species, and most importantly, this is a world in a state of war...
Sending troops to attack a peaceful country is aggression, and attacking a country in war is salvation. Although it sounds like self-deception, this is an undisputed fact.
"Betty, is there any magic that can directly make others understand what you mean? I mean something like telepathy."
The language barrier is a big problem. This world is different from the Zero World where travelers exist, and it is also different from the Iron Fortress and the Heavy Equipment World, which are originally imaginary parallel worlds. It is a different world in the true sense. Although it is different from the animation Judging from the wanted posters that appeared in the movie, it seems to be in English, but obviously, that is just a representation of the animation for easier understanding.
"Yes, but you need to touch your forehead. Short-term communication is okay, but long-term communication is more troublesome. However, Betty also has a magic that can force memory. It can learn a language super fast. Only those with Yin attributes can use it. "
Beatrice showed an expression of "Thank me quickly". After being in contact with Shen Fu for longer and longer, the number of times she acted arrogantly became less and less, and the expressions on her face became richer and richer, but she seemed to be a bit inherited. Her mother's bad taste.
"Let's learn the first kind of magic first, and then we go to the imperial capital of Zhanchi World to find someone to teach us the language. It would be best if we can find a plot character."
When Esdeath and he met, they should have been on the way to conquer the alien race. In other words, everything should not have started yet, so let's go and have a look first. As for other things, we will make a decision after the contact. No. Being able to be influenced by the personal thoughts of the original author of the animation is the basic experience Shen Fu has summarized after experiencing three worlds.
With Shen Fu's current mental strength, it doesn't take much time to master a simple magic. The next day, he and Beatrice were ready, and the two of them appeared outside the main gate of the imperial city.
This is a very tall city wall. Patches of blue moss on the thick white wall bricks give the building a quaint sense of vicissitudes. Under the city wall is a bottomless moat, but there is no sign of it at the city gate. To the soldiers guarding it, it seemed anyone could enter the city.
Not to mention Beatrice's luxurious dress, Shen Fu also made good preparations. He added a lot of decorations to his robe and removed the parts that looked like military uniforms to highlight his nobility.
This imperial capital is very unfriendly to outsiders, not to mention that there are various nobles who look sanctimonious but are actually extremely vicious and enjoy killing the poor.
Therefore, Shen Fu directly put the four words "I am not easy to mess with" on his body, and even Beatrice exuded a little momentum. In addition, the two people's clothes were either rich or expensive, and no one with an eye-opening attitude came to look for them. trouble.
"Where should we go first? This city looks several times bigger than the royal capital of Grunica."
The entire imperial capital is not built on flat land, but more like a huge hillside. The top is the imperial palace in the center. From there, the quality of the houses is getting worse and worse. To put it simply, there is a hierarchy. Distinct cities.
"Let's go to the slums first. If there's any place here where people can have some expectations, it's the slums. And I remember that Leonai often hangs out there."
Leonai was the woman who died alone in a deserted alley. She was a member of the Revolutionary Army's assassination unit "Night Raid". Her character in the animation was a carefree woman with a good figure. Growing up in the slums of the imperial capital, he once killed all the nobles because he couldn't stand the cruel game of trampling children to death on horseback.
I feel like there should be a lot in common with Felt besides his body shape.
"The slum should be in that location. The mood swings in this area are the most active there."
Beatrice raised her hand and pointed in a direction. She could roughly feel the emotional atmosphere shared by most people, so she actually didn't like this place. Under the prosperous surface, there were strong emotions of despair, filth, and numbness.
"It seems like we are lucky. If we don't understand the language, it would be very troublesome to ask for directions."
He didn't expect to find the slum so easily. Shen Fu took Beatrice's hand and walked slowly over there. Although it was said to be a slum, it was actually more like a market. On both sides of the meter-wide road, there are shops and street stalls piled with various products. People in simple clothes are constantly shouting and selling. It does seem more lively than outside. After all, they are those who survive tenaciously in such an environment. people.
However, as soon as the two of them walked in, the way the people around them looked at them... the fear was far greater than in the slums of other worlds. Shen Fu even saw many young women fleeing into the alleys in panic.
"This city is in a really bad place, but we're really lucky."
