(I just completed a small event, and there will be a daily routine to promote the plot. It’s not that the number of words is too spicy. Writing daily routines tortures me more than writing events...)
After Bordeaux got his reward, Wang Yu didn't stay much longer and followed several other members of the special operations team back to Red Maple Street. Professor and Sieg, two busy people, still had things to deal with and didn't follow their plans. Charles and Wang Yu came together to visit Edward.
The two were walking on the streets of Red Maple Street. Hong Maple Street was lucky. As a street in the central city and close to Stevenson Academy of Magic, it was relatively less attacked by demons.
Only the sudden appearance of the Demon Summoner caused some buildings to be burned down. Other than that, there were only a few holes left by the Purgatory Worms.
The two contacted Edward using a communication device, and Edward told them to meet at the street corner. It seemed that he was recovering well.
As soon as they got off the carriage, the two of them saw Edward standing under the big red maple tree at the street corner. At this time, he was holding a bunch of white flowers and placed them under the big maple tree.
Cat girl Su Fang followed him, holding some of the same white flowers in her hands. It seemed that the white bouquet in Edward's hand was taken from her flower shop.
"Hi!" Charles could tell that something was not right in the atmosphere. He waved and said hello to Edward, but his tone was not so cheerful, and he and Wang Yu walked to Edward's side.
Edward turned his head, nodded, and then performed a standard military etiquette towards the tree.
"Who is it?" Wang Yu politely took a white flower from Su Fang's hand, thanked her, placed it in front of the maple tree, and then turned to look at Edward.
"Do you still remember the team leader who faced Elfen, the source of life, with us? He died. He didn't know the power of the flames released by the demon summoner, so he went straight up and died in front of me." Edward sighed. I took a breath, feeling somewhat lonely inside.
"Is it him? I do have some impressions. Although he is a little immature, he is indeed a very responsible captain." Charles also followed Wang Yu's example and placed a white flower in front of the maple tree.
"I just feel a little sad that someone I was familiar with suddenly passed away. Life is too fragile... I don't even know his name." Edward looked at the red maple tree that was entering its twilight years, and there was a lot of emotion in his words.
"No way, the world has always been like this. At least you still know this squad leader, so you know the news of his death, but what about the other city guards who died in this incident, and those civilians, even their deaths are not Know that sometimes there is very little we can do, just be strong and try to protect the people you know."
Wang Yu bowed to the red maple tree in the same manner as the earth. He didn't know if there was such a thing as King of Hell, Buddha, in this world. He hoped to bless the deceased captain.
This world has always been cruel. As the son of an archduke, Edward may still need some time to understand. However, he believes that Edward is definitely not someone who will be bound by these entanglements, and he is not very good at comforting him. It is better to make it clearer. .
"Yes, I'm still too weak. Let's become stronger. At least protect those who need my protection, including relatives, friends, and citizens. This is my duty. I'm sorry, but some past things have come to mind again. "
Sometimes when a man is talking, he doesn't need someone to comfort him. He just chats with him for a few words and then the conversation is over.
"What's irresponsible? Look after yourself first. Look at your injuries." Charles walked over and poked Edward's naked and bandaged upper body. Edward grinned in pain.
"Start!" He waved his hand to drive away Ciel, who had another evil smile on his face next to him.
"Look at you, you're injured like this, how can you win over someone else? But looking at you like this, you're making good progress." Charles still looked up to him with a shy face, and pointed at the station with a evil smile. Su Fang behind Edward.
"Go away, you're talking nonsense, and the name you told me was wrong." Edward was furious and waved his recovered arm to drive away Ciel like a fly, but his face was obviously a little confused. Something's wrong.
"Hahaha, just admit it." Charles smiled and ran away. I don't know what Edward was thinking, but at least the slightly sad atmosphere was almost gone.
"Edward, let me tell you, you should have been rewarded originally, but your father seemed to have said that there was no need to reward you, so it was taken back." Wang Yu thought for a moment before mentioning it to Edward.
"Oh, it should be." Edward didn't seem to care about his reward being withdrawn, which was in sharp contrast to the money-grubbing Ciel who was being chased and beaten.
Edward, the son of the Grand Duke, seemed to behave like Wang Yu, a commoner who had no rights before, after joining the special operations group. He had never used the rights of the Grand Duke's son for convenience.
It stands to reason that as Edward's father was a grand duke with a very special status, his sole heir had the power to mobilize some of the troops and had a higher status than ordinary nobles.
But Edward has never used this part of the power either. Even with this identity, it was only used by Ciel when he choked little Daniel.
Edward's performance makes him look very special, and coupled with some of the things he mentioned in the past, it seems that he is indeed a guy with a story.
But it's still the same as the old knight's past. As a friend, if Edward didn't tell him, Wang Yu wouldn't ask deliberately.
After saying goodbye to Edward and Charles, the two guys planned to go for a drink again. Wang Yu didn't like drinking, so he didn't go.
However, as soon as he walked a few steps, he heard the catman lady angrily scolding the injured Edward that he should not drink and should lie down, and Ciel's laughter like a barbell.
When he walked to the door of his house, Wang Yu was about to take out the key to open the door, but his expression turned strange. He threw the key into his pocket and turned on the blood-burning drive without hesitation.
By the time Wang Yu finished this set of actions, a figure had already rolled out of the yard of Wang Yu's house extremely quickly. He stepped on the ground and came to Wang Yu in a few steps. The soles of his feet turned into afterimages and kicked towards Wang Yu's chest.
The open and close attacks can be avoided with simple movements. With the help of the invisible force given by the wizard's power, he lowered his body and avoided the leg sweep that brought a gust of wind.
Standing up suddenly, using all the strength of his upper limbs from his waist, the force of swinging his arms turned into a forward punch. Wang Yu's fist was punched forward with all his strength, and the opponent's fist was also synchronously facing Wang Yu without giving in. Hit it out.
"Bang" The two sets of gauntlets collided together. The same excellent quality kept both sets of gauntlets from deforming, and the huge force made a loud impact.
The bodies of the two people moved backwards on the ground for several meters due to the force. The dust on the ground was also blown up by the airflow generated by the collision of fists. This shows how amazing the power of the collision was.
"Brother Garcia, what are you doing? You scared me." Wang Yu shook his aching fist and looked at Garcia, whom he had not seen for a long time, or who had just met him in the palace, and was speechless.
"Are you really still developing your abilities? It's good to defend against sneak attacks from blind spots. Besides, you don't look like you're startled." Garcia showed a generous smile and put away his fist.
"The level of improvement in your strength is a bit scary. The strength of an intermediate official knight is close to that of a high-level official knight. Your improvement is no longer an exaggeration. It can even be regarded as a miracle."
Garcia shook his head, not hiding the shock beneath his smile.
"Punch me again and try." Wang Yu took a stance and signaled Garcia to try again.
"Okay! Let me see how good you are." Garcia was not polite and punched again.
The fists collided in the air, but this time Wang Yu flew directly out and hit the roadside wall, leaving a dent.
"Huh?!" Garcia was a little confused. Although he had increased his strength, Wang Yu would have been smashed away without any reason given the strength just now.
"Ahem, my power actually comes from the combination of my Knight's Secret Technique, Void Power and Fighting Qi. This thing cannot last long. The current limit of maintaining this level of power is only three minutes, and it only has physical power."
Wang Yu fanned a large amount of flying dust in front of him with his hand, then took his dislocated right hand over and explained the composition of his power to the confused Garcia.
Although Wang Yu can now achieve the physical strength of a mid-level official knight by turning on the blood-burning drive, due to the problem of fighting spirit and load, this state can only be maintained for three minutes. He is not Ultraman, and three minutes is definitely not enough. use.
Wang Yu's own hard power should be at the peak of the apprentice knight, and he still relies on physical strength. His fighting spirit is not strong. Obviously, the gap between him and Garcia is still huge. Even if he uses the burning blood drive, he still won't be what Garcia is now. opponent.
But that's normal. Garcia's strength was developed over time and decades. How could he, Wang Yu, have been training against Garcia for so long?
"I see. Otherwise, your knight talent would be so high that it would be the strongest in the history of the human race."
After listening to Wang Yu's explanation, Garcia also understood why Wang Yu could possess such powerful power. If it was just a short-term burst, although it was still worthy of praise, it was not unacceptable.
"Click." The wooden door of Wang Yu's house opened, and Aviya walked out of the door wearing home clothes and an apron.
"Wang Yu is back? Just in time, dinner is ready. Come and eat, eh?" The girl walked out with a happy face and saw Garcia, who was still punching, and Garcia, who was smashed into the wall and left a big hole. Wang Yu, who had just gotten up, looked startled.
"Ah, uh, this..." Garcia was a little embarrassed for a moment. This sudden test of Wang Yu's progress during this period did make him a little embarrassed. Of course, it was Wang Yu who was disgraced, but the most embarrassing thing now is He did.
"Let's go." Wang Yu patted the dust on his body and stood up. He didn't care much.
"good"
…
Wang Yu was extremely satisfied as he was eating a portion of braised beef with potatoes from the boss in front of him. He picked up a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth. It was slightly sticky, mellow but not overly salty. Aviya's craftsmanship is indeed impeccable, and she has been doing it all the time. Progress, the methods of making delicious food that I scanned out from my memory are also very useful.
Garcia sat opposite Wang Yu and watched the girl hand Wang Yu a towel to wipe the dust on his body. Although the food in front of him was delicious, he always felt an indescribable feeling of embarrassment.
Then I remembered that Wang Yu seemed to have just returned from the palace after receiving a reward, and he had tidied up well before going there. Although he didn't dress up specially, he was definitely very clean. Then he punched Wang Yu against the wall, making him Wang Yu’s body is covered in dust…
"Oh, Aviya, this is for you." Wang Yu wiped the dust off his body, and then handed the girl the extra copy of the notes he got from the Minister of Finance.
"Hey, this is it?" Aviya took the copy of the note and looked at it with surprise.
"It should be the notes left by the wizard Roland. There shouldn't be many discrepancies between the notes kept by the royal family. It's not like those inexplicably fabricated stories about Roland. It should be of some help to you."
"Ah, thank you!" He took the book from Wang Yu's hand with some surprise. Roland, the legendary wizard's notes, are definitely very precious things for a book lover, and their research value is also very high.
"As long as you like it, haha." Wang Yu took a big mouthful of food in front of him.
"Also, Brother Garcia, what you said before has been conveyed to Ms. Lilia for you. She said that you are really a child." Wang Yu said with a smile that Garcia had asked him to bring a message to Lilia before leaving. Ya told Garcia the results.
"Ah, yes, it's also her style, but according to her age, it doesn't seem to be a problem to call me a child." He smiled wryly and waved his hand. Garcia's embarrassment was diverted a lot by Wang Yu's topic, and the three of them We started chatting while eating.
Most of them were conversations between friends, and later they also touched on the current situation of Aleister and the war situation on the front line.
Wang Yu learned from Garcia that Severant's infiltration and destruction of Aleister was ongoing, and Aleister's internal destruction of Severtan was also ongoing. The two parties were fighting openly and covertly. It's been going on.
On the other hand, the war on the frontline battlefield gradually entered winter and the intensity began to decrease. The two countries relatively close to the north would pay a price for forcibly fighting the war in the cold winter, which would not be compensated by victory in the war.
This also means that some soldiers fighting on the front line can return to the Royal City of Arestle, and most of the Night Blade members who are on missions will also choose to return to their headquarters in the Royal City during this war window.
These people who have been recalculated into the Royal City's combat effectiveness will undoubtedly bring great security to the Royal City. A brief period of peace and tranquility will surely come, and Wang Yu, the "cop" of the special operations team, will also have some time to rest.
"Oh, it's snowing."
"real."
"Huh, haha, it's winter again, I'm a little happy, yeah!"
"Indeed, it has been getting colder and colder in the past two days. If it weren't for the invasion of demons, we would have prepared some stoves and other things in the past two days."
There were shouts from passers-by outside the window.
Glancing out of the window, some snowflakes began to fall slowly, landing on the clothes of pedestrians.
The sky in the distance has turned completely white, which is the signal of the arrival of snowflakes all over the sky. The sun is just before setting, and the sky is still bright and not dazzling, shining on the royal city at three or four o'clock.
Snowflakes cover the royal city that has just experienced a great change and killed many residents. The city is being rebuilt. The scenery is beautiful, but also a bit sad. How many people died in this incident, and how many are alive? The man was as melancholy as Edward.
Turning her head and taking a look inside the bright room, Garcia, the great knight, was rushing to eat the beef and potatoes that had gone cold due to chatting. Aviya was holding the bowl and looking at the snowflakes that were getting bigger outside the window like Wang Yu. , noticed that Wang Yu looked over and smiled.
"Well...even though this world is a little messy, sometimes it really feels good."
