Summoning the Holy Sword

It is nothing new for Rhodes to be accompanied by a different surname around him, but beside Christie, Rhodes feels an unprecedented peace and tranquility.

The girl's petite and soft body nestled in Rod's arms. Through the thin pajamas, Rod could even feel the fragile glass-like body, and the girl in front of her was like a living doll made of crystal. And pity. Christie's little hand rested on Rhodes' chest and raised his head. A pair of clear eyes stared at Rhodes in this way, full of attachment.

Rhodes didn't have any thoughts on the petite body in his arms. This is not because Christie lacks charm. In fact, although the girl has not grown up, the slowly developing body also shows green but attractive. The charm of a person, not to mention the beautiful and lovely face, coupled with the kind of tenderness unique to Christie, makes people reluctant to give up. But before lust, a feeling that had never been to Rhodes had the upper hand.

I want to protect her, protect her, accompany her, and expect her to grow up healthily and happily ... Rhodes himself is a little surprised by his mentality, he has never felt this way around any woman. Even Malin and Canary are the same. He will protect them from harm and stand by their side to support them. But in the face of Christie, the feeling seemed more complicated.

It's as if she is her own sister.

After that, Christie insisted on "supervising" Rhode's schedule. There was no way for this little surname Rhode. In order to avoid letting Christie sleep too late to affect his health, Rhode had to let go. Work in your own hands, rest with Christie.

She is much better than before.

Feeling the warm body in his arms, Rod couldn't help feeling secretly in his heart. When I first met Christie, she was almost skinny, and she could easily feel the hard bones anywhere in the body. But now, this petite body is much softer and smoother than before, which shows that Christie's body is slowly getting better, which is a good signal for Rhodes. However, whenever he thought of the magical power contained in Christie's body, Rhode was still a little worried. After all, he didn't know what kind of impact that power would have on the girl.

"... Rod .........?"

Christie's voice drifted into Rod's ears. The girl's speech was always this way, soft and a little long. It seemed that she had to spend a lot of effort to say a word. This was not because of Christie's physical health. But because after a long period of imprisonment in Gao Ya, the girl has become a little strange to the way of speaking. For ordinary people, speaking is a common thing, but for Christie, she wants to find a new one. The way to speak is not easy. Because of this, now Christie's speech is not always coherent, and he often pauses and hesitates between several words. At the beginning, Rhode was still a little worried, but now he is gradually familiar with Christie's speech. style.

"What's the matter? Christie?"

While looking at Christie's eyes, Rhode reached out and gently stroked the girl's hair, asking. Feeling Rhodes touched, Christie narrowed her eyes in peace, but soon she looked up again.

"......... you should rest ... Rhodes ......... it's late ...... go to bed early ..."

"Rest assured, Christy, I won't lie."

Hearing Christie's speech as if he was coaxing a child, Rhode laughed bitterly. Indeed, in the previous two days, he pretended to be a child in front of Christie. After Christie went to rest, Rhode immediately got up and started to continue. Carry out intelligence combing work, because he knows that Christie is very weak and cannot monitor himself "overnight", but he did not expect that Christie was not stupid at all. He actually came up with such a method to take care of him "closely", which also made Rod really There is no fighting back.

Thinking of this, Rhodes patted Christie's back lightly, and found that he had less concern for Christie, and Rhodes himself knew this. As the president of a guild, it was impossible Christie was by his side every day, and Christie herself had no power to help Rhodes and others, which also led to Christie being away from everyone in many cases.

But Christie did not give up her efforts. She was always trying to find what she could do. This is why this time Christie took the initiative to take care of Rhodes. She expected herself to be a useful person, not a person who would only live with others. Rice bug under protection.

Christie is not a flower in the greenhouse, because of her cruel birth, it can even be said that girls understand better than anyone in this world that there is no pie in the sky. She is working very hard to do everything she can, such as Help Rabis design statues or run errands for others. But these were still too trivial for her. Moreover, Rhodes can feel that Christie himself is not very satisfied with this.

He wasn't worried that Christie would be defeated by defeat, but he was worried that the girl would go to some extreme. After all, her physical health would not allow Christie to do anything desperately, but ... "" Christie? You How is life in the fortress? "

Thinking of this, Rhode could not help lowering his head and asking softly in the girl's ear. When hearing Rhode's inquiry, Christie nodded slightly.

"......... Very good ... Rhodes, everyone treats me ... Very well ... and Sister Bubble ... she is also willing to be friends with me ..."

"Being able to make friends is a good thing."

Hearing this, Rhode can't help but feel relieved, telling Bubble and Christie to get along is a request that Rhode made to Little Bubblegum. After all, among the people living in this fortress, only the bubbles are now about the same age as Christie, and Rhodes knows that bubbles should not be poisonous. In fact, she is also a knife-tofu heart. For adults' instinct resistance and resistance, but for Christie who is the same age as himself, the bubble is obviously not so poisonous. Not to mention that Bubble and Canary are full of curiosity about this girl who looks almost exactly the same as Rhodes. From the tone of Christie when he raised the bubble, it can be seen that she really likes the little guy. This is in Rhodes looked like the biggest victory.

"but…………………"

"Ok?"

"But ... I still wish ... and Rhodes ..."

Christie's words did not finish. Her body was not suitable for staying up late. At this moment, the girl murmured to answer Rod's inquiries, but could no longer resist the temptation of the demon, and closed it slowly. With his eyes closed, Rhodes could feel the girl in her arms falling asleep.

"……………………"

Rod gently stroked the girl's long hair. Christie's words didn't finish, but he knew exactly what the girl wanted to say in the end.

It was a very simple wish ... but Rhode knew that he couldn't achieve her wish, at least for now. What about the future? Is it possible to realize her wish in the future?

Thinking of this, Rhode closed his eyes involuntarily, and soon fell into a deep dream ... …………………………………………

It was all dark.

Rhode looked at the darkness with a little confusion, his consciousness was a bit fuzzy, the whole world seemed to be shrouded by a layer of fog that could not be understood, and it was cold and dark everywhere ... And in the next moment, Rhodes' eyes The black mist disappeared like the curtain of the stage, and replaced by a brand new landscape.

"this is……………"

Rhodes opened his eyes in surprise and looked at everything in front of him-the dark, gloomy sky spread endlessly, the earth dried up, there was no trace of life, and the dead trees seemed to be under the support of the dark sky The twisted gallows were unpleasant one by one. Looking at the scene in front of him, Rod frowned involuntarily. He didn't know where it was or why he appeared here, but it seemed as if something was calling him.

Rhode looked up, only to find in front of his eyes that he did not know when a huge, tall circular tower appeared, and the steps circled from his feet to the top platform. The icy wind mixed with an obscure roar passed by his ears, as if inviting himself.

Rhode went up the steps.

It seems that the towering towering into the sky doesn't seem to be so tall after the fact that it has been boarded. It can even be said that the concept of time is completely obscured here, and Rhodes doesn't remember how long he walked. It seemed like hours, all in all, when he returned to God, he had reached the top of the tower.

Later, Rhodes saw a petite figure that surprised him.

Luxurious, elegant, full of high society atmosphere, small body wrapped in black dresses inlaid with hollow lace, a soft, dark and shiny long hair moving in the wind, and a bright red ribbon laid a slender white neck A small bow, and that face is no stranger to Rhodes—that's his face.

Or, that's Christie's face.

"Christie?"

Rhodes had his eyes widened in amazement. He took a step forward and looked at the girl in front of him. No matter from which point of view, the girl in front of her is Christie who had fallen asleep with herself before. But soon, Rhodes noticed the difference between the two.

Unlike the weak, pitiful Christie. The girl in front of her had an unprecedented sense of coercion. She just stood there as if she were the master of this cold world. She was firm and absolute, and no one could threaten and change the status of the girl. Countless shadows dangled under the girl's feet, as if a courtier who eagerly welcomed his master, and seemed to be a prisoner who could not escape the control of the tyrant.

"who are you?"

At this moment, Rod couldn't help but be shocked. He felt that things didn't seem right. At this moment, Rod had vaguely realized that he should be in a dream, but this dream seemed so real, more Don't say that Christie appeared in it, and Rod was immediately alert at this moment-in his experience, this was mostly not a good thing.

"..............."

Upon hearing Rhode's inquiry, the girl smiled, and she opened her mouth as if to say something. But Rhodes didn't hear it at all, and the howling wind passed by his ears, seeming to block all the noise.

"I can't hear what you're talking about, who are you?"

Facing Rhode's re-inquiry, "Christie" shook her head, then she walked to Rhode in an elegant and dexterous step, then stretched out her hands, raised her skirt, and gave Rhode a perfect lady etiquette Then, the girl looked up and stared at him—and it was not until this time that Rhodes discovered that the biggest difference in the "Christie" in front of her was her eyes.

It was no longer a pair of purple and blue eyes, but a pair of beautiful purple pupils, even trembling. The dark purple eyes seemed to emit a faint glow as if burning, with an unprecedented, mysterious and seductive charm. Then, the girl smiled slightly, then raised her hands solemnly and cherishedly, held Rod's right hand, then raised her head and opened her mouth again.

"……………………"

But Rhodes still couldn't hear her voice, he could hear the sound of his clothes sliding, he could hear the howling wind, and even the dry branches trembled in the wind, but only the voice of the girl in front of him, he I didn't hear it at all. He could only see the girl's uncanny lips, but it was too difficult for Rhodes to see what she was talking about from the shape of her mouth. However, the girl didn't seem to care if Rhodes could hear her, she just finished everything she wanted to say, then held up Rhodes' right hand, lowered her head, and kissed Rhodes on his back. A moment.

"———— !!!!"

A burning tingle suddenly struck Rhodes, and Rhodes felt only a flower in front of his eyes, as if a bright red dazzling light flashed in front of himself, and then his world began to completely collapse and shatter ... ... again swallowed by darkness.
