Arad's Sword

Chapter 27 On the Rooftop at Dusk

Fina's terrifying saturation bombing completely tore through the last iron wall of the Red Flame Legion and turned the streets behind Midi and the others into ruins, completely blocking the threat of pursuers.

"This is..." From being surrounded to breaking out, then falling into despair again, and now hope again, after several ups and downs, Sigmund was speechless.

Lilian even stared blankly at the sky illuminated by the brilliance of the magic bullet, as if she had forgotten that she was still on the battlefield.

"This is 'Cross Air Strike', which is a super powerful version of the magic bullet, a magic that belongs to Fina alone." Midi replied with a smile.

The appearance of Fina's fire coverage here is neither a miracle nor a coincidence, but also the result of Midi's careful calculation.However, in this calculation, there is no prior agreement before the war.After all, this is a raid, and the situation is ever-changing, and it is impossible to predict all responses.

The reason Midi was able to predict that Fina was in the north was because he was too familiar with this girl who occupied the most important position in his heart no matter in the past or present.

He knew that Fina would never leave alone once the agreed gathering time had passed but the members hadn't arrived yet.

He knew that even in the face of an army of 1 people, Fina would never give up on her companions.

He also knew that with Fina's current military judgment, she would definitely choose the north as the breakthrough point.

But what he didn't expect was that Fina not only made judgments and actions, but also chose to trust herself.The red-haired girl did not lead the fifty soldiers to break through directly, but waited and endured until Midi finally launched an offensive from the inside out and gave a signal, and then she burst out with powerful fire support .

If it wasn't because he was one of the parties involved, who would believe that this seamless tactical coordination that picked the best time only relied on the tacit understanding between two people?

Midi couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth and smiled, the smile was full of the joy of being understood and trusted.

Compared with the billowing gunpowder smoke, the blood everywhere, the burning broken walls and the dark sky, this sunny smile seemed so out of place, however, it still made people feel natural and taken for granted.

Perhaps, the result of this surprise attack has already been decided from the moment Fina chose to trust Midi.

"Let's go." Midi said briefly, "Fina is waiting for us."

Accompanied by these words, the raiding team soon disappeared into the night, leaving only a burning Yorkshire as a gift to the Seth family and General Red Fox.

When the sun rose at dawn the next day, the news of the victory in the first battle swept through the territory of the Asrex family like a whirlwind. There were only 120 people in the area, and the real attack was only seventy elites who infiltrated. Such a great result is nothing short of a miracle!

Although the specific battle situation is still sealed as a secret, this does not prevent people of various identities from housekeepers to servants, from farmers to businessmen, to get together in the tavern while drinking comfortably and chatting about Asley. The strong attack of the Kekes family.

As for Midi? Asrex, the name of this dandy and libertine who was not on the road at all and was always taboo, has become synonymous with the strong in an instant.

Although many people doubted whether the lord intended to pave the way for his son, however, the reverence revealed in the eyes of the knights and the gossip from the mouths of many veterans completely dispelled such suspicions.

Lead the assault yourself!

Play with the Red Flame Legion in the palm of your hand!

Although I don't know what was hit in that raid, but in short, it was a victory, and it was a big victory!

Although the image of a playboy has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people like an old tree with roots, but with such a clear record, it has finally been uprooted.The name "Little Master Midi" is the most common thing on the mouths of the citizens now.

However, for the parties involved, such a victory is nothing.

Even in the previous life, this was nothing more than a daily scene.

If you want to talk about the real gains, it is probably another level up in the battle, and Midi is now level 23.

And the greatest gratification is undoubtedly Fina's trust in herself and her tacit cooperation in the end.

Thinking of Midi, who had bright red hair and looked at the sunset from the roof of the castle, she involuntarily showed a nostalgic smile again.

"Ahem..." A pretentious cough sounded suddenly, pulling Midi back from his trance to reality.

Midi looked back, and at some point the red-haired girl had arrived beside her, pretending to be serious and looking at herself, but her blue eyes were full of warm smiles, which made Midi feel dazed for a moment.

Fina seldom expresses her happy emotions so directly. The Queen of Magic Bullets looks sassy and confident, but in fact she often blushes with embarrassment, and often turns embarrassed into anger and resorts to violence. Midi is very familiar with this.

But now, Fina actually smiled so frankly?

Midi was confused for a moment, but the next moment, he immediately knew the reason - Lilian and Sigmund were standing behind the red-haired girl.

The blond gunner still showed an elegant and gentle smile as always, and greeted Midi easily, but Lilian didn't come up with a few words of sarcasm as usual, but turned her head awkwardly, avoiding her eyes Midi's gaze.

"They wanted to thank you, so I brought it here." Fina said simply.

Midi immediately understood what Fina meant.

After the trial, although they have become partners, Midi has not yet established a real bond and trust with these two people.

Sigmund and Lilian only agreed with Midi's strength and his position.But at a critical juncture, they will definitely choose to fight with their own hands instead of relying on Midi.

The delicate red-haired girl obviously also saw this tiny gap in her eyes.However, it is a long process after all, from running-in to trust, from trust to trust, until becoming a comrade-in-arms that can be entrusted with life, even if it is Fei Na, there is still no way to force it, so she just pays attention, but does not To pull seedlings to encourage growth.

But this time, the two came to ask for thanks, which is undoubtedly a gesture, a deeper recognition, rather than simply expressing gratitude for the life-saving grace in the raid.

Therefore, Fina expressed her joy unabashedly, she was happy for the bond established by the two parties.

It is precisely because she will be happy from the bottom of her heart for such a thing that she has the ability to create the legendary "Falcon Group", right?A born leader indeed.

Midi couldn't help feeling so emotional, and then met Sigmund's eyes.

"It's really thanks to you this time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to survive the battlefield. Thank you, Midi Asrex. I hope we can fight together in the future." Sigmund's words were simple and clear, Then he stretched out his hand and shook Midi firmly.

Lilian still didn't speak, but her little freckled face was flustered and at a loss.Obviously, she is not a entangled person, since she is here, she won't make gestures anymore, but she has been venomous for a long time, and now she stands in front of Midi, but finds that she has not even thought about what to say.

Midi smiled, and stretched out her hand: "Thank you and Sigmund for this raid."

"Thank me?" Lilian didn't react for a while.

"Actually, if you abandon the warriors of the Asrex family, the target will be much smaller, and the chance of escape will be much higher, won't it?" Midi continued, "But you didn't do that, but Fight with the warriors, so, as chief heir to the Asrex family, allow me to express my gratitude for that."

This is not a compliment, but the truth.From Midi's perspective as the commander of the Falcon Regiment for so many years, the purpose of each action of the two during the raid was clear.

But Lilian obviously didn't expect the other party to be so clear about this, she was stunned for a moment, then raised her head, looked at Midi seriously and said: "Fina taught me to face difficulties together with my subordinates, I I think it's right, so I don't need to thank you. I actually don't think I have anything to thank you for coming here now, but, Midi Asrex, I am willing to fight side by side with you."

"That's enough." Midi nodded equally earnestly, and the hands of the black-haired boy and the freckled girl finally held together at this moment.

There is no extra politeness, and there is no need for it. After walking through the gate of hell together on the battlefield, the other party will understand many things without saying it.Soon, the rooftop returned to silence.

Sigmund and Lilian leave, but Fina stays.

However, there was no dialogue between the red-haired girl and the black-haired boy.

The two just watched the red sunset in the distance in silence, letting time pass quietly.The air settled down, but it was neither cold nor heavy. On the contrary, it carried a nostalgic smell, just like the familiar yet unfamiliar ambiguity when an old book was opened.

Midi likes this feeling very much, being with the red-haired girl, without saying anything, sharing the lovely sunset and lazy dusk together.

But in fact, Fina was not calm at all.

Just like when I saw Midi resisting the 35th-level sword soul in the previous trial, the red-haired girl had a lot of questions and wanted to ask the bottom of the casserole, but she was unwilling to take the initiative to ask, but Midi seemed very calm , which made her even more irritable.

Moreover, the number of times she found herself fidgeting and impatient in front of this dark-haired guy seemed to be increasing.

Who told this person to have so many secrets!

"Let me tell you." Finally, Fina couldn't help but spoke again, and said in a casual tone again, "How did you know that I was laying an ambush in the north?"

"Since you didn't choose to charge, then you were laying an ambush." ​​Midi replied in a natural tone.

"I'm just asking how you knew I was going to the north." The red-haired girl continued to ask.

After a while, Midi's voice broke the silence: "Because I know that you will definitely support me in the most suitable position. Just as you believe that I will definitely lead them out."

"You bastard..." The red-haired girl couldn't help but sullen.

This is a matter of course, because the answer given by Midi is too vague and ambiguous, it can be said to be deceiving.But the girl's anger didn't stop there. The reason why she was angry was not only because of this ambiguous answer, but also because she felt happy when she heard the answer for the first time.

For a moment, Fina had the urge to give him a magic bullet to make the world peaceful, but in the end, she still couldn't help laughing.

"What's the matter?" Midi really went in without knowing it this time.

"It's nothing." The red-haired girl replied loudly in a hearty tone, as if she hadn't seen it.

This guy definitely has something to hide from himself.After this battle, Fina was almost sure.Whether it's the understanding of herself, the cooperation with herself, or the kind of gaze that makes people not disgusted, Feina can't help but want to guess-whether she has crossed paths with him before?

But now, since this guy doesn't want to say anything, it's better to let him go for the time being. After all, it's a reward for fighting so hard.

Anyway, it's a long time coming.
