The Book of Maiden Contract

"I'm really sorry, Vita, actually I just wanted to make a joke with you, I didn't expect to bring you such a big blow..." Just when the battleship was about to return to the Space-Time Administration, Vita snubbed him After a while, Lin Luo finally couldn't bear the silent atmosphere, and sincerely apologized, "You know, boys are the kind of stupid creatures who don't know how to express their feelings, so when facing the long-lost favorite When I was a girl, although I really wanted to be intimate with her immediately, but in the end, I only did things that made girls angry... So I am very sorry for making you feel bad."

Weta blushed slightly when he heard this, but still snorted angrily, and turned his head stubbornly.

Lin Luo didn't take it seriously, and smiled: "Actually, this time, I really thank you very much. Without you, I really don't know what to do next... Thank you, Vita."

"Uh..." Hearing Lin Luo's extremely sincere words, Vita, who was originally a knife-mouthed bean curd heart, suddenly softened, and no longer put on a cold face, blushing and said embarrassedly, "Also... ...It's not that serious, I'm not such a stingy person, saving you from that place was just an accident..."

"No, no, you misunderstood what I said." Lin Luo shook her head and interrupted her, "I mean: I was in a very bad mood at first, but I just bullied you a little bit, and my mood changed. A sudden five percent jump, and a feeling of joy from the bottom of my heart, so... thank you very much."

Lin Luo looked at her with a sincere expression on his face.

"..." Weita was stunned for two seconds, then clenched his fists violently and roared, "You really can die once! Give me back my emotion!"

After finishing speaking, Weta turned around and walked out. While walking in the aisle of the battleship, he gritted his teeth and said to himself, "Really, make me look like an idiot. It's a reunion after ten years. I'm looking forward to it all, it's so messed up, I'm really not moved at all... eh?!"

Having said this, Vita was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously stopped.

Although Hayate, Naye, and Feite have worked hard and actively in the past ten years, you can see their bravery in battle, and you can hear their laughter in daily life, but because they are guardian knights, they are the guardian knights. The closest person to them, so Weta knows very well that under their cheerful and happy surface, there is always a lingering shadow hidden, which makes the smiles on their faces not as carefree as they were at the beginning No worries, always worrying about something.

And this kind of mood has naturally affected her and the people around her. Others may not know the reason, but the guardian knights know what Naye and the others have been worrying about all the time. Showing the brightest smiles of ten years ago, they guardian knights have been working hard.

Fight hard, work hard to obtain the rights that can provide you with a lot of convenience in various things, so after only ten years, each of them has climbed to a very high position in the Space-Time Administration, but any Everything has a price. When they are trying to get something, unconsciously, some important things are also lost, such as... the intimacy that everyone talks about when they gather together, And a big smile.

It's not that they're no longer close, or that they don't laugh anymore, it's just... something is missing.

What is missing, Vita is still unclear for the time being, she only knows that after the exchange with Lin Luo just now that made her angry and crazy, she feels as if she has returned to ten years ago... although it is a little less I was moved, but my heart felt much more relaxed, as if I no longer had to be bound by anything.

correct! This feeling is... freedom!

Vita finally understands what is the most important thing they have lost unknowingly during these ten years, and that is freedom!

Because they are in high positions, their words and deeds may affect the fate of many people, so they must be cautious in their usual actions, especially as a soldier or a leader, many times they cannot be affected by their own emotions. You can't cry even when you are sad, because the people below are watching, you have to stand up straight, you have to give them confidence, only in this way can you lead the people below to fight.

However, no matter how strong a person is, there is always a weak side. Only when the night is quiet, a person hides in the quilt and weeps silently, and then smiles again at dawn the next day, such a thing...is too cruel!

Although jealousy and hatred are negative emotions, sadness and anger are not. They are positive emotions like happiness and joy. They can't even express sadness and anger freely. Isn't it too heavy?

However, just now, it was the first time in the past ten years that I was so angry and so mad, as if I had broken the things that had been fettered in my heart for a long time...

"Is this his purpose?"

Weita said to herself, but shook her head in a flash. Although she knew that Lin Luo was amazing, he could think and do things that ordinary people dared not do, but it was impossible for him to know what they were doing anyway. What happened in the past ten years, and how could it be possible to think so much, most of it was due to his own bad personality, but... the shackles in his heart were indeed broken.

"Ah, forget it, it's not suitable for me to think so much at all." In the end, Weita smiled and didn't care about it anymore. Anyway, someone else has appeared, and Haifeng and the others should be happy if they know about it. enough.

When the battleship stopped at the port of the Time and Space Administration, Lin Luo and Weita walked out of the battleship at the same time, and said to her: "By the way, have you reported my affairs to Naye and the others?"

"No."

"That's good, just don't tell them." Lin Luo nodded.

"Why?" Vita asked suspiciously.

"Of course it's a surprise for them."

surprise? I think it's a prank, right? Looking at Lin Luo's leaving back, Weta said secretly.

...

When he was on the battleship before, although Lin Luo didn't ask Vita for information about Naye and the others, but when others were paying attention, he sneaked into the information database of the Space-Time Management Bureau through the computer on the battleship. , and then he discovered an astonishing fact: the status of Naye and the others in the Space-Time Management Bureau is very different from that in the original book.

According to Lin Luo's understanding of the Space-Time Administration, its highest institution is the United Staff Council, which has the power to decide all events, followed by the Armed Forces of the Bureau, which is the most well-equipped and powerful armed force of the Space-Time Administration. Institutions, followed by the police forces in major regions and some important institutions such as the Education Department, Technology Department, Search Department, and Secret Service Department of the Bureau.

Basically, the above three levels of departments are the most important components of the Space-Time Administration. Generally, when dealing with important events, a staff meeting must be held first, and then after the opinions are unified, the order will be issued to the armed forces of this bureau, and then the bureau will The armed department further issued detailed orders based on various information about the incident, such as asking the technology department to conduct research, or the search department to explore first... In short, the process is more complicated.

Originally, if Lin Luo’s intrusion hadn’t happened ten years ago, at this moment, Naye and the others were all civil servants belonging to the third-level agency. They are just the commanders of the class, and have not reached the real upper core of the Space-Time Management Bureau... Of course, considering their age, they have reached such a level when they are less than twenty years old, which is already very remarkable.

Only this time, they were even more terrifying.

First, the two guardian knights, Vita and Signum, were absorbed by the armed forces of this bureau because of their strong combat power and rich combat experience, and they were ranked as first-class empty ranks... This rank is roughly equivalent to the colonel of the Celestial Dynasty. Further words are generals, and in terms of power, they are higher than commanders in third-level institutions.

Then Fei Te is the first-class air general of the armed forces of this bureau, and also the magister of this bureau and the executive officer of this bureau... Anyway, she has quite a lot of official ranks, and some of them even Lin Luo can't figure out what they are, but the one with the highest gold content It is still the rank of first-class air general, and it is the core of the core to be eligible to participate in the unified staff meeting.

The next thing that is even more perverted is Haifeng, because of the rare traits she possesses, she ranks as the Marshal of the Armed Forces of this Bureau, the highest-ranking position of the Armed Forces of this Bureau, and is second only to the Parliament in the Space-Time Administration. more eligible to participate. More importantly, her marshal will hardly be abolished, because she will be demoted only when all members of the United Staff Council reject her. She said that as long as Feite voted for her, her status would be unshakable.

The last one is Naye... probably because Naye doesn't like politics, and the reason why she can't fly freely in the air once she is in the top ranks. Among all the people, her military rank and rank are the smallest, Just a first-class flight lieutenant and the instructor of the combat skills teaching unit, not to mention comparing with Feite Gale, even the guardian knights are much higher than her.

But a small official rank does not mean that Naye's rights are small. On the contrary, she has the greatest rights among all people, because she has a special authority that no one has-free action!

With this freedom of action, it is like the imperial envoy who held the Shangfang sword bestowed by the emperor in ancient times. No matter where you go, you can represent the will of the emperor. Gotta kneel.

In the Space-Time Administration, Naye's free actions made her the only person in the history of the Space-Time Administration who could confront the high-level people head-on. As for the level of this confrontation?

Let's put it this way, for example, the combat troops in this bureau are performing an important task and need to launch an attack on a certain place, and this order was issued by the United Staff Council. In theory, no one can stop it, but... this situation Under this condition, Naiye can fight against it, even if it is prevented by force, unless there is definite evidence that she has rebellious intentions, no one can convict her, even the United Council of Staff.

Of course, such a confrontation still needs a certain reason, if it is unreasonable, of course it will not work.

This kind of free authority is almost equivalent to Naiye's own space-time administration in a certain way. In theory, no organization can tolerate the existence of such a person, and it is impossible to give someone such authority. As for What is the reason... everyone understands.

So even Lin Luo felt very strange after seeing that Naye had this authority. Although Haifeng and Feite are high-ranking and powerful, their ability to contact them is understandable, but Naye's authority is too great. It's unreasonable, it's just... It's like he gave all his power in the Ming Realm to an outsider, how is that possible!

Even if all the high-level executives of the Space-Time Management Bureau had eaten their brains, they would not have made such a decision.

But after Lin Luo made further investigations on Naye, he finally understood, because just three years ago, Naye saved the entire Space-Time Administration by himself. It's not that kind of potential danger, but when the Space-Time Administration is facing life and death, in order to give her more space to play, her actions in the Space-Time Administration must be unimpeded. Her authority.

Originally, it was only used as an expedient, but after that, Naye successfully saved the entire Space-Time Administration and became everyone's hero... At this time, even if you want to take it back, you can't take it back.

After all, she was the one who saved the entire Space-Time Management Bureau. Without Naye, everyone would have died. Apart from the authority of free movement, what other rewards could be worthy of this feat? Moreover, in a series of investigations in the later period, not only the grassroots people of the Space-Time Administration, but even some upper-level people supported Naye's holding of free movement, so later, free movement became a symbol of Naye, and it was also her unique irreplaceable authority.

However, Naye, who has free authority, is she really free?

Although the rank of each of them is several times higher than before, the six mobile classes originally proposed by Hayate have not disappeared, but exist in another form. It was in the evening at this moment, and if she guessed correctly, Lin Luo estimated that Naye was teaching her students at the training ground of the sixth motor vehicle class.

But... After Lin Luo walked for a while, he finally found out that he had made a major mistake, that is... Where is the sixth maneuver?

Although it is not the first time for him to come to the headquarters of the Space-Time Administration, after ten years of absence, and after the incident three years ago, the Space-Time Administration has also undergone reconstruction. He also forgot to investigate the map on the battleship before. So much so that he didn't even know where the Sixth Mobile Division was located in the Space-Time Administration.

"Hey, girl over there, do you know where the sixth class is?" Feeling embarrassed, Lin Luo found a girl passing by, and immediately ran up to ask.

The girl looked down at the document and said a word without raising her head when she heard the question.

"Oh, thanks." After getting the exact location, Lin Luo immediately ran towards the sixth class of maneuver.

In the same place, the girl was still walking while reading the document, but after a while, she suddenly raised her head with a blank expression on her face, "Hey, did someone talk to me just now?"

Although Lin Luo holds the pass given by Weta, but because he wants to give a surprise, or it can also be said to be a "prank", he doesn't want to expose his existence soon, so along the way, the pass itself can fight against the laws of the world With his existence, he turned his breath into a state of nothingness, so that no one would notice him.

Simply put, at this moment, he has turned into Akalin.

The sense of presence that no one can detect, and the speed like the wind, made Lin Luo unimpeded along the way, and soon came to the training field of the sixth maneuver class, just as he expected... a few young magicians The soldiers were training hard on the playground, and not far from them, an orange-haired girl in a white uniform, blue skirt, and white silk on her legs was standing there, watching the young man During the training of the mages, they operated while pressing the light screen in front of them.

She is none other than Takamachi Nanoha.

Unlike the Wannian loli Vita, Naye has changed a lot in ten years, not only from a little loli to Yujie, but also looks more mature and reliable. An orange single ponytail hung down her side, her tight uniform highlighted her excellent figure, and she was full of femininity.

Lin Luo just stood in the corner and watched quietly, and didn't go forward to disturb him. Although he had seen too many beauties, he would no longer have the idea of ​​being amazed, but he silently looked at the girl he liked like this. , as if it was done several centuries ago, it also made him feel quite comfortable.

I don't know how long it took, the training on the opposite side finally ended, and the students said goodbye to Naye one after another, and Naye also turned around and walked towards him after tidying up. It's just because of the special effects of Akalin, Naye didn't notice the existence of Lin Luo even though he passed by.

Lin Luo followed behind her like a stalker, and a sudden sigh made him notice that there was a trace of fatigue and worry on Naye's face, and she was faintly absent-minded.

This girl who is known as a hero in the hearts of countless people, this girl who will always be like an invincible god of war in the eyes of outsiders, also has an unknown weakness. When those people were protected by her, did they ever think that sometimes, she also needs to be protected?

Looking at her expression at the moment, Lin Luo couldn't help thinking so.

When turning the corner, Naye walked up the stairs, perhaps because of exhaustion, or perhaps because of thoughts, Naye stepped on the ground and immediately fell down.

"Ah!" Naye exclaimed softly, instinctively wanted to use magic to fly up, but before she could make a move, she felt a pair of hands supporting herself, and gently hugging her in her arms.

The strong and gentle embrace made Naye dazed for a while, and when she turned her head to look, she found an extremely familiar face in front of her.

"I'm back... Nanoha."
