People are at the junction, but they become the incarnation of the sun

"is it?"

It seems that I remember correctly, this little guy is right.

But...

He looked at the half of his body that had been naked for who knows how long, and found that he didn't seem to need a tailor.

"Forget it, there's no need to thank you or anything. Saving you was just a small accident. I'm leaving."

So he pulled up Torette's reins and prepared to leave, heading to the Ailei Church.

It's been a long time since I saw the arrogant and elegant Lani, and I still miss her.

However, before he took a few steps, that Buck stood in front of him again.

"What do you want to do? I already told you that helping you was just an accident. Do you want to still rely on me?"

After saying that, he put down the sword on his shoulder and pointed at the thin demi-human in front of him.

He had no intention of doing anything to this little cutie. After all, this cutie was one of the few good people in the border area.

Just a little scare.

"No, no, don't kill me, don't kill me, I want you to help me..."

Seeing the great sword raised high again, Burke, who finally mustered up his courage, curled up into a ball and trembled again.

"..."

Is this guy a puppy?How come you pee when you are scared?

I just don’t know if this is the one that xxn likes.

But it's also quite interesting. Even though he was so scared, he still had the courage to block his way. For the sake of this courage, it's not impossible to help him...

Alas, I am a very kind person.

I praised myself a little shamelessly in my heart, and then asked the creature named Burke: "Tell me, how do you want me to help you?"

"...I, I want to ask you to help me go back to the cave on the coast and get those important things back, so that I can repay your kindness for helping me break the magic..."

"The cave on the coast...is that over there?"

Reinhardt pointed in the direction of the forest.

"Y-yes, that's right!"

Like a chicken eating rice, Burke kept nodding.

"Well, this is just on the way. I want to go to Airei Church. You can follow me first. After the things at Airei Church are settled, I will help you get back what belongs to you."

"Thank you, Lord Faded One. Your great kindness will definitely be remembered by Burke!"

It looked as if it was extremely grateful, almost kneeling on the ground and giving him a few kowtows.

I didn't feel much about it when I played the game, but now it seems that this Burke is really a strange guy.

"Forget it, forget it, there's no need for this. My name is Reinhardt. Just call me Reinhardt. Don't call me Faded One. I hate that title." Reinhardt said matter-of-factly,

But in fact, the main reason is that the title of faded person is too easy to cause trouble.

"Yes, Lord Rhine, Burke has remembered it!"

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

Near dawn, he finally arrived at Airei Church riding his beloved Torette.

After a long time, the Ailei Church has lost its former integrity and splendor. Overgrown with weeds, only the dilapidated ruins entangled with thorns and vines remain.

The priests and believers who praised the golden tree in the past have long disappeared, and even the statue of Malika they believed in has disappeared.

Perhaps those martyrs standing outside the Drifting Cemetery were them.

However, after walking into the ruins of the dilapidated church, there was no sign of Lani, only the wandering businessman Gallie sitting in the corner and warming himself by the fire.

Dress like Santa Claus.

And their wandering merchants should be the only merchants left in the border area now, right?

Except for them, they were either robbed by bandits, attacked by wild beasts, lost their minds due to dementia, or died during the war. In short, the profession of merchants has become a rarity in the border areas.

Or something useless.

Even they, wandering traders, cannot avoid being robbed by other forces.

For example, some faded people will always be targeted.

By the way, they, like the Faded Ones, are beings who have lost their blessings. Even because of Malika's behavior of burying the caravan in the past, they hate the golden tree and the golden law.

But having to use runes as the trading currency is really awkward.

"...Faded One, you must be waiting for someone, right?"

Just as he and Burke were sitting in the blessing place, preparing to wait for Lani's arrival, Caleb suddenly made a sound in the corner.

"Ah, yes, I am waiting for the arrival of a witch."

"...That's right. A witch came here before. Let me tell you that you don't have to wait for her any longer. She doesn't want to see you."

"Huh? What's the situation?"

What Gale said made him a little confused.

Don't want to see yourself?

why?

She obviously told Blaze before that she would wait for her at the Ailei Church, so she just disappeared without a trace?

"I don't know the details either. That's what the gentleman explained."

Gale stared at the fire quietly, telling all this in a smooth voice.

He is just a wandering businessman. He is only responsible for passing the news and does not care about so many things.

"...However, this package needs to be given to you. This is what the witch asked me to hand over to you."

Kalie rummaged through the package on his horse's back, took out a leather bag and threw it over, but he just happened to catch it.

"The adult said you can use the things here."

Opening the leather bag, there were two familiar things inside - the soul-calling bell and the ashes of the three wolves.

But besides this, there is a golden vase with a relief of a golden tree, and in it is a whole bottle of dew drops of grace.

Even if you are seriously injured or life-threatening, just one sip can heal you completely.

"Finally, that adult has one more thing for you -"

"No need to be confused, no need to have doubts. Use your sharp blade to open up your own future. My proudest knight, Reinhardt, there is no need to come to Calia to look for me. Go to the Magic Academy, Se Lian is waiting for you."

"When everything is done, I will naturally go find you."

“The glory of Kaliya is with you, and may the full moon always protect you.”

If I had doubts before, I can say that I believe it 100% now.

This is what Lani would say.

And even though it was Caleb who relayed it, it was as if Lani said these words right in front of him.

But why?

That stupid doll princess, what string in her head is wrong? !

At the beginning, he promised that he would wait for him to return, so why did he do this again now?

Thinking of this, Reinhard was a little angry. He wished he could go to Stonewell City to kill Greg now, and then go to Lienia and Kalia to find that idiot princess and ask for answers.

But after seeing the cowering Burke beside him, he suppressed this idea for the time being.

Since Lani has left such words, there is no need to rush now.

What's more, he is a person who keeps his promises. He will solve the matter in Burke no matter what, and then go to Lani.

"...Master Rhine, what's wrong with you?"

Burke noticed something was wrong with the expression on Reinhard's face and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay. Go to sleep first. We will go to the coastal cave early tomorrow morning to help you get your things back."

After saying that, Reinhard lay back slightly, leaned against the stone wall and slowly closed his eyes.

But Burke kept looking at Reinhardt and couldn't help but think:

"...I must have caused a lot of trouble to Mr. Rhine..."

145. I always feel like I lost 4 million ([-]K)

The next morning, the junction welcomed dawn again.

The dazzling light made Reinhard wake up from his sleep.

"Ah~ I slept so well~"

He sat up straight against the wall and stretched heavily.

Although he only slept for a few hours, he already felt very satisfied and full of energy.

But in fact, there is nothing wrong with him not sleeping, he just instinctively wants to fish a little bit.

Why are there so many things to do these days? I haven't been idle much since I woke up. I'm almost on the way to the set.

He is obviously not a model worker, so why bother working so hard?

But besides that, there is another question, where is the demi-human named Burke?

He had seen no trace of Burke since he woke up, neither inside nor outside the church.

"No need to look for it. If you are looking for that demi-human, he has already left." Gale, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly reminded him.

"That little guy is quite courageous. He said he was afraid of delaying you, so he left at dawn and returned to the coastal cave alone. Obviously the demi-humans there are very dangerous, ugh..."

Caleb sat there sighing alone.

It was as if he had foreseen Burke's end.

Not only Caleb, but him too.
