There Has Been No Defeat in Wuheqin So Far

Lian rolled up her robe and wrapped her body again.Looking at Kotori's face with a look of surprise, at the same time, everything that happened before resurfaced in her mind, and the gaze at Kotori also became more and more strange.

"You really... are... an elf..."

Trembling slightly, she said a title that surprised Kotori.

"Do you know 'Elves'?"

"......Know."

Probably because she has basically adapted to Kotori's existence, Ren, who was always in fear, has gradually calmed down now.Just curled up like a little insecure.

This was a bit beyond Kotori's expectation. She didn't expect such an ordinary little girl in trouble to know the existence of elves.

Is it just to judge through the short battle just now?

"You were so scared when you saw me before, is it because of my identity as an elf?"

Kotori asked tentatively.

And Lian nodded unsurprisingly.

From the looks of it, she didn't judge whether she was an elf through pure brute force.It was because the little girl saw her elf identity at first sight that she felt so frightened and ran away in a panic.

"I see..."

It seems that in today's world.The identity of an elf may already be known to everyone, and it can be identified only by its appearance.It seems that not only has such a big change happened in the world, but also... the identity of "elf" seems to have been endowed with other concepts.

"Can you tell my sister...why do you know my identity?"

Although Kotori's questioning method is a little bit difficult, because Lian seems to have not spoken for a long time and because of the extreme lack of water, she still speaks a little articulately, and may not be able to speak clearly what is too long.

But at present, the only source of information that can be obtained is Lian.

While Ren was silent, she kept secretly looking at Kotori's expression.After hearing this question, he hesitated and said:

"Because... 'The Balrog'... has a bad reputation..."

Chapter 374 Five years ago? (fourth more)

'The Balrog'

This is "Kotori Wuhe", one of the heroines in the "Date A Live" dungeon world, as the identification name of an elf, and it is also what those who know the existence of elves call her.

Controlling flames, her makeup looks like ghosts and immortals, but she also has a strong resilience like a phoenix.

The name 'Efreet' comes from this.

But hearing what Ren said, Kotori noticed the most crucial point.And this is enough information to surprise even Kotori.

"You said that 'Balrog' has a bad reputation...does it mean that there are still elves called 'Balrog' in this world?"

"...Yes." Lian replied, but the expression on her face seemed a little puzzled.

Probably because she doesn't know why this well-known thing, but the big sister in front of her who has the same appearance as the 'Broken Demon' doesn't know.

"Aren't you... 'Balrogor'?"

Lian asked in a low voice timidly.There seemed to be a bit of eager pleading in the tone.

It seems that she doesn't want Kotori to admit that she is the 'Blaze'.

Qinli could also basically understand what this little girl was thinking. After all, he had kindly saved her just now, and he probably didn't want to equate that seemingly notorious 'Blaze Demon' with himself.

Now it is as simple and easy to understand as a child.

Thinking of this, Kotori showed a faint considerate smile, not caring about the mud on Lian's body, and touched her little head.

"Don't worry, I'm not the 'Balrog' in your impression. I'm from another place, but it just so happens... I have a similar face and strength to that 'Balrog', right?"

And Lian also blinked her eyes a little flattered, and clenched her hands tightly holding the corners of her robe.He lowered his head slightly, his messy hair covered most of his face again.He responded inaudibly.

"...thanks..."

Kotori couldn't help laughing, stroked Lian's long hair with her fingers, and gently pinched the little guy's face.

"Don't be polite to me. After all, I'm not a philanthropist, and you don't accept my charity for no reason. I need your information, and you need my help. Isn't this a fair thing?"

Taking out the previous bread again, Kotori stuffed it into Ren's arms.

When Lian saw the food, her eyes could not help but shine, but she still forcibly endured it, and asked cautiously:

"Really... let me... eat?"

"Eat with peace of mind, you will have the strength to help me when you are full. Seeing how weak you are now, you can't speak clearly, and I will be very troubled." Kotori helped to tear open the bread bag, whispered softly:

"Eat."

"...Um."

After getting Kotori's guarantee, Lian no longer had any scruples, and hurriedly grabbed the bread and stuffed it into her mouth, devouring it desperately.

The child was indeed quite hungry.

"Don't eat too fast, or it will easily cause stomach damage." Qinli warned carefully.

But when Lian heard Qin Li's words, she immediately stopped the speed of eating Hesai, forcibly restrained her hunger, and began to chew slowly.

It's become quite nice now.

Kotori stuck her chin, looked at Ren's appearance of eating, and muttered in her heart.

It's really a far cry from the frenzied look of desperate work before.

"cough.."

It seemed that the mouth was too dry and he accidentally choked on it.Lian let out a weak coughing sound.Kotori quickly took out the mineral water from before and handed it out.

After drinking a few sips of water, Lian swallowed the last piece of bread and let out a long breath.Glancing at the half-drinked water in her hand, Lian hesitated for a moment, then handed it back again.

"yours..."

"I'm not stingy enough to grab water with you." Kotori waved her hand, signaling that she doesn't need to care about such a trivial matter.After a moment of silence between the two, Kotori said again:

"Since you are barely fed and clothed now, and I am here to protect you, can you sit down with me and have a good conversation?"

"Well..." Lian nodded obediently, there was no fear in her slightly raised eyes.

At least, Kotori's kindness to her has been well conveyed.

Kotori deliberated for a while on what to ask, and said softly:

"Let's start with the simplest, Lian, how old are you now?"

"twelve..."

Barely reached the age of a junior high school student, but her current figure is no different from that of an immature child, and her nutrition is really poor.Qin Li sighed secretly.

"So, Lian, why did you appear here alone? There shouldn't be anyone else here, right? Do you have any companions?"

"Because... I didn't want to stay in that kind of place... so I ran out alone..."

It seems that he is full of food and drink, and has been carefully treated by Kotori.Lian's speech gradually became smoother.It's just that what she said made Kotori's eyes twitch.

"Alone, escaped?"

"...Well." Lian lowered her head.

"Your parents, siblings, whatever..."

"Lian has no parents, no relatives and friends." Before Qinli finished speaking, Lian said these words directly.A pair of small hands had clenched into fists, still trembling faintly.

Kotori silently saw all this in her eyes, and did not choose to go deeper on this topic, but changed to another topic.

"So, Lian, can you tell me what happened in this world in the past few years?"

"matter..."

She was amazed at Kotori's ignorance. She seemed to feel that Kotori's ignorance was a little too much, but she also didn't choose to expose it.Because in her heart, she still has a certain sense of gratitude to her savior.

"I'm not very clear about the specifics, but... it should have changed from five years ago..."

five years ago...

This year is quite ordinary, but to Qinli's ears, it seems a bit extraordinary.

Because the key year for the 'Date A Live' story to go smoothly is the so-called 'five years ago'.

'Five years ago', Wuhe Kotori gained the power of the elves, became the 'Balrog', and caused a fire in the city.

'Five years ago', the hero got the ability to repair himself from Kotori Wuhe.

And the plot about another heroine seems to be in a series of big fires five years ago.It can be said that at that point in time, it was a very important plot connection point in the world of 'Date A Live'.

"Five years ago, for unknown reasons...strange 'beasts' started popping up all over the world. Those monsters...were horrible, killed everyone they saw, and ate everything they could eat."

Lian seemed to feel fear, holding her body trembling slightly.

"It rained blood from the sky, and the streets were full of blood and corpses... I didn't know anything at that time, I just knew to run away...Many, many people died, everyone was crying..."

Kotori frowned, looking at Ren who seemed a little restless.He reached out and touched her head.

"Wait a minute, calm down a little bit first."

After Lian finally settled down again, Kotori said slowly:
