Little Tyrant Doesn’t Want to Meet with a Bad End

In Roja's past memories, it was quite a headache every time sharing the bed with Alyssa. I needed to think of all kinds of ways to prevent the girl from making small movements. When I woke up in the morning, it was good to hug them normally. , At every turn, he will also engage in some messy dramas, which makes Roja quite a big head.

However, this time, the silver-haired girl was different. On the second day of hypnosis for Roja, when the black-haired boy woke up from his sleep, Alyssa was not in Roja's arms, but an ordinary Lying beside the boy, his small chest rose and fell with his breathing, without any abnormality.

When he discovered this, the black-haired boy thought the sun was coming out of the west, but when he recalled what Alyssa did last night, Roja was not so strange.

In fact, Roja found out last night that facing him who was at peace, the silver-haired girl didn't have any other thoughts, just cast a spell on her and then took care of her until she fell asleep.

I have to say that this is very different from the usual girls, less playful, but more gentle as a woman, and it is this kind of gentleness that makes Roja have some special feelings.

It seems that Alyssa has really grown up.

The young man who thought so stared at the sleeping girl, and suddenly felt a kind of heartbeat, and at the same time, his heart was full of gratitude to the girl.

After a long time, Roja finally fell asleep and recovered a lot. Compared with the state of last night, the current Roja can be said to be completely crushed. The ability to think has been restored and improved.

A good night's rest lifted Roja's spirits, but even this young man did not make a noise, but got out of bed softly and walked out of the house silently.

"Master, you are awake."

"Well, don't go in yet, Alyssa is still asleep inside."

"I see, sir."

After a conversation with Anna at the door, Roja did not choose to have breakfast first, but walked out of the mansion after washing up, came to the garden in the backyard, and then waited to look at the distant sky.

Before going to bed last night, Roja exchanged the [Inspiration Chicks] in the system. Since its source seems to be from Shia's temple, Roja is very easy to control, and after a night's reconnaissance patrol, today It's long overdue for it to come back.

Closing his eyes slightly, the black-haired boy in the garden waited silently while running the magic power. After the morning sun completely rose, a tiny figure in the distance crossed the sky and landed towards the Akart mansion.

But what Roja didn't expect was that the returned [Inspiration Chick] did not fall normally, but slipped, and the reason was very simple, because the silver-gray bird had a lot of damage at this time.

"this is......"

Looking at the bird-shaped curse standing on his hand, the black-haired boy could not help frowning deeply, with a puzzled look on his face.

Although [Inspiration Chick] is a moving target for a powerful superhuman, it is quite difficult to catch in nature. Not only does it fly very fast, but it will not land without fatigue. , the most important thing is the breath of Shia.

Last night, Roja was not idle after seeing the silver-gray bird, but supplemented it with a spell. After getting the supplement of the pseudo-priest Roja, there were more [Inspiration Chicks]. A trace of the aura of the gods worshipped, that is, Shia's magic power fluctuations.

In this world named after the original goddess Shia, having Shia's breath on her body is equivalent to hugging the strongest thigh. Under normal circumstances, any creature in nature will subconsciously avoid it, even monsters. [Inspiration Chick] Naturally, it is impossible to receive any attack.

But the fact is that the feathers on the silver-gray bird that flew back were scattered, and there were several sharp scars. Although there were not many, each stroke was heavy and even nearly destroyed it.

Looking at this obvious trace, Roja frowned deeply. In any case, a creature that is disrespectful to Shia will never be a good thing. The appearance of such a thing itself is an ominous omen, but after perceiving [inspiration] After the results of the investigation by the young bird, the black-haired boy narrowed his eyes suspiciously.

[Inspiration Chick] As a bionic creature, it does not have any functions such as video recording, so it is impossible to know what hurt it, but it is certain that the other party seems to be a flying creature, and this should be an uninstructed attack , otherwise the silver-gray bird will not come back at all.

"Cult summoned creatures? Or something else..."

Roja, who was thinking like this, muttered to himself, as a curse, the function of [Inspiration Chick] is actually to expand the user's perception range and make the perception more accurate. However, after checking the records, Roja found that. There doesn't seem to be anything suspicious about the Akater Territory at the moment.

Whether it is in the city of Akate or in the mountains and rivers, the situation of the magic power is quite normal, and there is nothing wrong. The only thing that is different from usual is the air. The magic power response is stronger than before, but now it is easy to snow. At the time of the day, Shia's weather changes tend to gather magic power, so I'm not sure if there is something tricky about Roja.

"That being said, today is indeed a bit gloomy."

Looking up at the slightly gloomy sky in the distance, the black-haired boy frowned slowly, feeling a little bad in his heart for a while.

In the air, this can be said to be one of the combat areas that Roja is currently the least good at. After all, according to the attributes of the ancient gods, Gulandal does not have the ability to fly. Petra, as the goddess of the earth, will lose it after leaving the ground. The inexhaustible leyline magic power greatly reduces the strength.

The only exception is the King of Witches. As a witch, Artasia often floats in the air and is also the main force of Roja's air combat, but it takes time to get rid of trouble and reconnect with Roja.

After thinking for a while, Roja, who was still seriously lacking in information, returned to the study, while Rodney, Cynthia and others had been waiting here for a long time.

"Lord Roja, we have completed the task you gave us for the time being."

Seeing the black-haired boy, Cynthia bowed respectfully and reported this, and Roja was not surprised by this result.

In the most familiar city of Akate, the three masters of source level 3 cooperated with the pagan legion and the sheriffs, and it took two days to find out suspicious people. .

Under the investigation of the dragnet in the city, a lot of fugitives and outlaws were caught, and there were several hidden cultists of some small sects, but the big gains were not at all.

Hearing the report of Cynthia and others, Roja fell into silence for a while, but he was not surprised by the black-haired boy. After all, Akart City was right under Roja's eyelids. What troubles here could easily arouse him? Be vigilant, if Roja is a cult, he will not come to scare the snake.

"...You have done a good job, but you must continue to be vigilant, check the people who come and go, and there must be no problems in the city."

After thinking for a long time, the black-haired boy encouraged the Grit and Strength Sect who worked for two days and two nights in a row, and then asked Cynthia and others to go to rest for a while to recover their bodies after two consecutive days of work, and after everyone left. After the room, Roja carefully considered the current situation.

On the whole, Roja still knows too little information. Although the [Inspiration Chick] is suspected to have found the enemy, but the enemy's location has not been found, and nothing has been found in the city. It has been three days since Roja received the witch's warning, But he couldn't even analyze the type of enemy.

Without the specific intelligence of the enemy, naturally there is no effective targeting configuration, but it is not that it can't be done.

The black-haired boy who thought so looked at the city outside the window and silently made a plan for the next step.

-------------------------------------------------- --------

What is essential for a city in the early stages of construction?

The answer to this question has changed from ancient times to the present. In ancient times, it was the blessing of wood branches, warm and dry land, and Shia. In today's human society, it is the approval of the sovereign state, sufficient funds and manpower, and guards. ability.

The most direct manifestation of escort ability is naturally the army. In fact, most of the first cities built after the westward migration of mankind were built by the army, and their role was originally a fortress against monsters. In addition to the army, major cities must be Less is the city enchantment.

Security is the premise of stability, which is an eternal truth, and the urban enchantment is one of the items born for this purpose. At the beginning of the third era, it can be said to be an artifact to protect human beings through the most difficult time. As a city with a history of nearly a thousand years, Carter City is naturally indispensable for this fortress curse.

"Brother, is this the most valuable thing in our Akart family?"

"Well, at least as a single item, there is nothing more valuable than the Fortress Charm."

In the morning, the black-haired boy and the silver-haired girl stood on the city wall, looking at the center of the soldiers passing by below. Also a little nervous.

The barrier of Akate City, not to mention the new citizens who have come here in recent years, even Roja himself has never really seen it. In fact, as a barrier that can only be activated when the city is attacked at the most critical moment, it is activated. There are only a handful of times in history, and the reason is very simple, one is not used, and the other is the price.

The biggest difference between the holy country of St. Mestre and other countries where the Akat territory is located is that it is covered with a layer of religion, and the primordial goddess, as the mother of all living beings, has a wide range of believers. In this case, the Holy See is attacked. The country under its control is likely to provoke public anger, and as a result, few countries are willing to use force against the Patriarchate.

There are almost no external wars, which is one of the foundations of the power of the teaching nation for thousands of years, and this environment determines that most of the enchantments in various cities are useless, and even gradually fall into disuse over a long period of time. Of course, Akate is an exception. .

As one of the great aristocrats of the Church that attaches great importance to military strength, the barrier of the Akart family has been continuously upgraded and transformed for hundreds of years. It can be said that it is the strongest other than the [Angel Feather] of the Holy See headquarters, and it is said that it can even resist Of course, a group spell with a scale of tens of thousands of people, as a powerful protective facility, its price is also extremely high.

The huge maintenance cost of the curse that is usually included in the military fee is also ignored. Each time it is opened, it also requires a lot of overhead. At least 100,000 gold coins to open it once, and there is no ceiling. To be honest, with the economic strength that Akate led in the past, this thing Opening a territory is basically on the verge of bankruptcy.

The rich rely on technology, the poor rely on mutation, and it is obvious that the Akart family was very poor in the past, so poor that they had a limited number of foreign wars.

Life on the battlefield does not necessarily mean death, but if the barrier is opened, it will really die of poverty.

Of course, times have changed, and unlike history, today's Akate Territory has initially prospered. In Roja, an outstanding talent who has inherited the family tradition, the first person in the economic construction of the territory for thousands of years is the first Akate leader.

Under the leadership of the shopkeeper, the family has already made a lot of surplus, which can be called the richest moment in a thousand years.

But if you want to say that you are reluctant, then there is no doubt about the answer. For the opening of the barrier, Roja, who has been careful all his life, is not reluctant at all. If it weren't for the current situation, the black-haired boy would rather be every day. If you live in the city at night, you won't let people mess with this thing.

"Lord Roja, the preliminary debugging is over, is it going to start now?"

"..."

After nearly an hour of adjustment, the well-prepared magician stepped forward and leaned slightly towards the boy, asking for Roja's opinion, but staring at the huge mechanical curse below, Roja, who heard the words, fell into Silence, and after a long while, he frowned and asked.

"The cost of starting this thing is..."

"Because it's been a long time since the last startup, I'm afraid it will cost more, about 150,000 gold coins..."

"Brother!"

The moment he heard the maintenance staff's offer, the black-haired boy's eyes widened and his body shook violently, causing Alyssa to exclaim, while Anna by her side hurriedly stepped forward to support the boy.

150,000 gold coins? 150,000 gold coins to open a machine?

Under the concerned gaze of the silver-haired girl, the black-haired boy took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down a little. I have to say, even if he was mentally prepared, this price made Roja's flesh hurt. Damn, especially when the money is still going to waste.

Looking at the gloomy sky above, and looking at Alyssa and the others who were watching him worriedly, the black-haired teenager had a tangled face for a long time, and finally chose to be safe. After taking a deep breath, Roja gritted his teeth again. Opening:

"...Start it, but keep it to a minimum."

"Yes, my lord."

The sorcerers who received the order left immediately and began to prepare to activate the fortress curse, while Roja turned his back and looked into the distance, as if he did not want to see the scene that made hundreds of thousands of gold coins disappear, but in his heart, Roja But he became more determined.

Compared to the safety of loved ones around me, money is nothing but an external thing, and to some extent, the fortress spell is also necessary.

[Inspirational chick] The scar on his body this morning drew Roja's attention to the sky. Since then, the black-haired boy has been thinking about how to defend against the enemy from the sky. I have to say, for Shia's military In terms of deployment, there are still relatively few attack methods in the sky, and the optimal solution to deal with it is the Fortress Barrier.

After thinking about the rationality of his thinking several times, the black-haired boy calmed down a lot, turned around and stared at the fortress curse on the eve of its opening, Roja sighed lightly, praying that he could rely on this. Ancestral Legacy through these toughest days.

"In about three days, Artasia's passage will be restored, as will the reinforcements from the Church and Rose..."

Feeling the origin of the [Crown] in his body muttering to himself, the black-haired boy's face became more determined, silently waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from all walks of life.

-------------------------------------------------- -----

In the Akate region of the Holy Nation of St. Mestre, Roja is using the only information to fully prepare for the battle to fight the restlessness in his heart, and in the far east, in the Saint-François fortress of the Kingdom of Knights, a man dressed in heavy armor The knight looked out the window, wondering about the discomfort he felt inexplicably recently.

It has been nearly half a year since she came to this barren land in the Eastern Border. At the beginning, Wilhelmina was often a little nervous because she was at the border, and she could not sleep well at night, but after several bloody battles and long-term killings Afterwards, the gray-blue-haired girl had basically gotten used to the life on the front line.

To put it bluntly, this is a world where the strong eat the weak, but it is more cruel than other places. The weak on the battlefield will lose their lives, while the strong will gain glory and praise. From a racial point of view, it is The strong get the right to live.

As a human knight, Wilhelmina naturally vowed to defend her compatriots and her own race to the death, so she worked extra hard in normal battles, but even so, it was a bit strange to have such discomfort.

[Is it because of overwork? Or is it too stressful? 】

In the simply decorated room in the castle, after listening to Wilhelmina's narration, the pink-haired girl raised the small book in her hand and asked, Cherry's small mouth tightly closed with a worried look on her face. Such concerns are also legitimate.

Wilhelmina Cumbernet, this name has spread very widely in today's human combined army, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it like thunder.

In the first large-scale battle against aliens last fall, the girl who was the royal family of knights took the lead, plugged the gaps in the front line due to the problems of cooperation between the armies of various countries, and successfully led the army of the kingdom of knights to launch a counter-offensive. , smashed the enemy's flank and turned the whole battle situation, and the human coalition also won a great victory.

Since that war, Wilhelmina has become famous in one fell swoop, and the attention of soldiers from various countries on the front line has risen sharply, and she has become one of the three most famous female commanders in the East. Lilian, the princess of the Austin Empire, and Noelle, the princess of the Holy State of St. Mestre.

It has to be said that even people who don’t care about these are prone to psychological pressure over time, not to mention a girl who has been unwilling to admit defeat since she was a child. It is precisely because of this that Teresa feels that Wilhelmina

The discomfort is because of these, but in the face of the concern of the elder sister who is related by blood, Miss Knight shook her head after being silent for a while.

"No, there are so few wars in winter. It shouldn't be the cause of fatigue. There is no pressure or anything."

【Really? 】

"Well, there's no need to lie about this kind of thing."

【yes? Wasn't it because they cared about them who were close to him? 】

"!"

Seeing the pink-haired mute girl writing such words in the notebook, the gray-blue haired lady knight widened her eyes, then turned her eyes away and fell into silence. Seeing this, Teresa put away the small notebook and said nothing. sighed.

It has been a year since the end of the Challenger Cup. During this year, Wilhelmina's changes have been unparalleled in the past ten years. It involves all aspects of personality, appearance, strength, etc. However, when these changes are mentioned, it is I have to mention one person, that is Roja.

In that world-renowned competition, the black-haired teenager broke the shackles that had imprisoned Wilhelmina for ten years, and took this as an opportunity to turn enemies into friends. It seemed that they had become partners. However, she knew that Wilhelmina, who had experienced all this, was not at peace in her heart.

The Dawn Club, although it is a newly established organization, is the crystallization of Wilhelmina's long-term efforts and hard work. However, in the face of Roja's request to merge, the girl completely agreed without any reservations, and even voluntarily gave up leadership. .

Although the newly formed Rose Dawn can be said to be fully internationalized, its power coverage has been greatly increased, and its strength has been several times stronger, but no matter what, it is too abnormal to hand over everything to the other party without reservation. Has always been rigorous to the old-fashioned character completely inconsistent.

Such a change in all aspects is not a problem for outsiders who don’t know Wilhelmina. In the eyes of Teresa, who is her sister, it is very conspicuous, and her mind is almost obvious, but Wilhelmina herself has always been in this regard. unwilling to admit.

"I'm... just his friend and partner. It's not that kind of relationship. I don't need to care about their affairs."

After being silent for a long time, the lady knight said these words in a low voice, and then got up and wanted to leave. Seeing this, Teresa sighed again, but this time the girl did not choose to let Wilhelmina go and thought for a moment. Afterwards, Teresa raised the book again.

[Wait, does the feeling in your heart have something to do with him? 】
