Cabin for two with Maid of Mond

Her Royal Highness looked at the sky and said, "You had a plan before you came to this world...but after you actually arrive, there is still room for change, right?"

"Yes." Toth replied briefly, and he also rested against the tree on the other side of the tree hole.

"If the abyss had contacted you earlier, maybe you would have different ideas?"

Toth wanted to shake his head, but he still ended in noncommittal.

"Maybe, just maybe."

Four volumes and three chapters, if you dare to attack Noelle...

The previous conversation, though far from open and honest, and Todt had not received enough information, had allowed him to confirm an important message.

If you have the chance, maybe you still have to consider...

Get rid of this princess.

Just now is the best time to switch to a clear friendly army on the spot. If the other party actively interrupts the communication, it means that there will still be a complete confrontation in the end.

However, the time will not be now.

Toth sighed inwardly.

——In this way, she and I will be each other's "companions" with ghosts in mind.

——Sigh... It is possible to deal with it, but I don't like this kind of companionship either.

——Although the traveling companions in the previous life have their own personalities, it cannot be said that each of them can safely hand over their backs to each other, but even if I was stabbed in the back, at least it would not be from the hands of my companions.

——Not to mention...I myself consider being the one who stabbed the knife in the back.

With a sigh in his heart, Toth changed the subject.

"Then, let's continue talking?"

"of course."

Her Royal Highness didn't have much emotion left, at least not showing it.

"I just mentioned magic instruments, so you are still alive after being slapped, is it some kind of special magic? But I think it is more like an elemental skill."

Even though the two sides have made clear their final hostile positions and it is impossible to reveal their trump cards to each other, Her Royal Highness still continued to ask about Toth's combat ability indifferently.

Todt doesn't intend to avoid talking entirely, either.

"Yeah, my elemental explosion. That trick is called phantom bombardment, and the name is actually very straightforward."

"Bombardment, phantom...so that's the case..." Her Royal Highness nodded and said, "While launching a strong energy projection attack, a rock elemental fake body was created, and the enemy's judgment was confused from visual and elemental sensing. Hide your real body."

"As expected of the princess of the abyss."

Although the general effect is not difficult to guess, Her Royal Highness's analysis of the principle of the skill is more thorough than Toth expected.While Thoth admired sincerely, he also deepened his vigilance.

Phantom Bombardment is a skill that combines both offense and defense. If the enemy cannot be wiped out with one blow, or if a flaw is caught while attacking, it can also attract attack firepower with a fake body.When it was used in the wolf-running collar, Thoth fired from a long distance, and no one from the enemy or us found the phantom of Thoth. It was finally used in the face of the Dragon Emperor's attack.

The application of elemental energy also includes the method of "making others feel very concerned". Although Toth has only seen the example of Earl Amber Rabbit so far, he believes that there must be other God's Eye holders who have similar effects skills.

In layman's terms, it is the "taunting" effect.

Just like different elements have healing spells, this kind of taunt effect is also a possible usage of each element, it depends on whether you want to try to build it into the skill.

This kind of mocking effect does not mean that you can ignore it if you know it is a fake. Even if you successfully resist it, you will inevitably have to separate your mind.

In addition, Toth further dilutes the presence of the main body by spreading optical grit, and temporarily presents a more realistic injured appearance to the fake body.

As long as the fake body is severely injured, the enemy can of course break free from the influence, and the more realistic trauma effects will not make the enemy keep mistaken targets.But for things like ridicule bait, if you can last half a second longer, it is considered a big profit.

Originally Toth considered using a similar effect on the gun skill [Golden Flower Dance], but later he figured out the gravitational effect of the rock element, and decided to make the two moves of the gun skill cooperate with each other, so it was still only used in the bow skill.

"In addition, my elemental combat skills are defensive skills. Specifically... Noelle's intelligence information is not difficult to obtain, you have mastered it [-]%, right? It is similar to her elemental combat skills, and it is not bad to use it directly as the same move. .”

"Oh? That maid..."

Her Royal Highness raised her eyebrows with interest.

"Even the skills are the same... She is really your little lover?"

"Not really."

This kind of reaction was expected by Todt, and he answered simply and neatly.

This is true, at least for now.

Toth also knew that Noelle couldn't hide his close relationship with him. For others—especially enemies—the answer was the same.

The wolf king once warned that Noelle had fallen into the eyes of the evil spirits of foreign law.And Toth also realized just now that Her Royal Highness Princess of the Abyss has been staring at him for a long time, and has undoubtedly checked Noelle's net worth.

"Hmph..." Her Royal Highness tilted her neck back slightly, looked sideways, and evoked a not-so-friendly smile. "If you want to protect your own woman, half-baked denials may not be useful?"

"I only denied your definition of the relationship between me and her, but I didn't say that she is not important to me, and I didn't expect to deceive you on this point."

"Really?" Her Royal Highness still smiled. "After such a conversation, are you not worried about what Abyss will think of her in the future?"

Thoth looked at Her Royal Highness with a blank expression.

When the topic shifted to Noelle, this blond girl who had never seen her smile since the first time she saw her had a smile on her face all the time.

Of course, even the dumbest person wouldn't interpret that as a good-natured smile.

Thoth's response was...and a smile in return.

"I can only suggest to you, don't take her as my weakness."

"Are you going to say next—or we'll have to pay the price?"

Her Royal Highness smiled even brighter.

Also more and more dangerous.

"With your strength, let me, let Abyss, not dare to attack her?"

But Toth shook his head.There is no threat or anger on the expression, but more helplessness, as if facing a poor student whose comprehension cannot keep up.

"You're completely wrong. What I want to say is that no matter how important someone or something is, they must first be 'weak' to meet the definition of weakness, right?"

Her Royal Highness is still smiling, but the corners of her lips are slightly frozen.

"Isn't she weak? Of course she's a lot stronger than ordinary people. And, even if you didn't mention it, I can guess that she might have obtained some extra reinforcement from you... However, as a truly strong person With her vision, she is nothing, you must understand what I mean, it's useless to pretend to be stupid."

Toth smiled lightly and said, "I understand what you're talking about is will to fight, determination, that kind of thing.

"But I'm not playing dumb, I do think she's strong enough and will be stronger.

"Anyway, I'll leave it at that. If I do anything to her, I might not need me to stand up for her, and you will be beaten to death. There is no reason in the world that a weakness is harder to crack than a non-weakness. Then she Naturally not my weakness, believe it or not."

On the other side, Her Royal Highness the Princess has put away her smile.

He didn't give a particularly glaring look, but seriously wanted to see the authenticity of Toth's expression.

"Ah, by the way." Toth added: "You just mentioned, I should say a line like 'If you dare to attack her, I will make you pay the price', in fact, I still plan to say it, But you have done it yourself first, so I just want to mention it here."

"Hmph." Her Royal Highness turned her head away, seeming to have lost interest in tit-for-tat, and said sullenly, "It's really not a man."

"It has nothing to do with gender, it has to do with ambition."

Toth didn't think it was disobedient, but smiled happily.

"Because I know that Noelle must be more willing to be a knight protecting a princess than a princess protected by a knight. Is that clear enough? Your Highness the Princess."

Four volumes and four chapters kill me now

The "knight" of the Mond Zephyr Knights is slightly different from the concept of knights known to Thoth in his previous life or previous lives.

The so-called knights here, although there are also aristocratic families like Qin from the Gurnhild family, but they are still mainly the collective name of the general army of Mond, which is similar in nature to the Qianyan Army of the neighboring country Liyue.

Although, impressions like fairy tales or legendary princess and knight stories also exist...

But the knight that Noelle aspires to protect has always been the people and companions of Mond, not the style of the princess and the knight.

However, this does not prevent Toth from making use of the topic to play a role in this [Her Royal Highness] who wanted to provoke Toth with Noelle just now.

But did Todt really fully believe that Noelle could handle any danger?

Not so.

What he said about Noelle's confidence was not hypocrisy, but there was still a certain degree of bluff.

This is not contradictory.

Fights, intrigues, tricks, things that have anything to do with these words, there is never a guarantee.

Especially for a dark force like the Abyssal Order who can't figure out the details, if they seriously want to attack someone, even if Thoth is the target, he can't guarantee that he won't be recruited.

No matter what he said, Thoth would not really let the enemy attack Noelle at ease.

But now that he has realized that Noelle has long been targeted, it may not be wise to avoid talking about Noelle.Why not use this opportunity to find out what the Abyssal Cult thinks of Noelle.

Of course, there are unknown risks in taking the initiative to probe the other party's tone.

For example——"I just talked casually at first, but the more I talk about it, the more interested I become, so I might as well deal with her" and other developments are also possible.

Including deliberately not mentioning it, no rhetoric plan can be guaranteed to be foolproof.

But it can still be speculated to a certain extent.

When Noelle was mentioned earlier, Her Royal Highness first emphasized what she thought was the intimate relationship between Toth and Noelle, and then made the topic more offensive.Toth judged that it actually had an emotional component, which was related to the conversation that the two of them had just confirmed that they could not really cooperate.

At the same time, Toth also believes that Her Royal Highness does not completely follow emotions.However, the organizational policy belongs to the organizational policy, which does not prevent her from stabbing Thoth verbally.

Perhaps, she was actually a flying and unrestrained character, but there was also some heavy burden that pushed this blond girl in white out of the city.

On the whole, Toth judged that it would be relatively beneficial to increase Noelle's difficulty in Her Royal Highness's heart as much as possible.

After all, it is impossible to completely remove Noelle, so we have to try our best to guide the decision-making and judgment of Abyss, even if it is a few percentages, it is a preparation for a possible complete reversal in the future.

Toth was thoughtful.

——My considerations...

——Actually, Her Royal Highness can think of it in all likelihood, but that doesn't matter.

——If you really want to think about it, you will enter the infinite matryoshka where you are on which floor and I am on which floor, which has no real meaning.

——The most effective method is to kill the weeds first... But this is my weakness.Don't mention how I should judge the timing of falling out with her. Even if I succeed in killing her first, I don't know the details of the abyss, so it is difficult to predict the possible revenge.

——It’s not even certain that losing her alone can change the overall trend of the Abyssal Order.

——So if we can not turn against each other and maintain a certain balance, of course it is the best.But it is hard to expect such an ideal development.

——You still have to be cautious...

On the other side, after the atmosphere stagnated for a short time, Her Royal Highness continued the original topic as if nothing happened.

"...The skills you just mentioned are completely different from the skills you used in battle when you first entered Dadaupa Valley. It seems that your application of elemental skills is more varied than ordinary people."

"I just have a little bit of martial arts experience, and I can't get on the stage." Toth briefly took it, and said: "Since you have already observed it, I don't need to emphasize it anymore? When I picked up a long-handled weapon, I used restraint and weight The medium-to-short-range combat style is dominated by strikes."

"What about your magic instrument? I mean, can it still work? Also, what caused you to fall before? I see that after your false body was smashed, the body that jumped out was not damaged by the red strip. The dragon attacked, but fell down by itself when the space was chaotic and changing."

"The energy boost of the rock element used to save you is not available for the time being. There are other magics, such as the one I used to burn the elemental firefly, which can be used. I also have magic of other attributes, but I have to say first, all of them The power is limited. To deal with enemies above ordinary Qiuqiu people, at most it can be restrained a little."

Although Thoth had reservations about the princess' continuous inquiries, he quickly answered them.

Even though the current environment is more problematic, Her Royal Highness started talking about Toth's combat ability.Aside from the fact that Her Royal Highness may indeed be interested, the main reason is to roughly confirm how much combat power each other has left.

Confirm from the perspective of a temporary companion.

Thoth also had this consensus, so he responded cooperatively.

It's another matter to digress twice in the middle.

"As for the reason why I fell down, it was actually because of the increase of elemental energy. Well, it's okay to tell you, my magic props are still very immature, and the increase of elemental energy is an unfinished usage. I took a risk with that trick." So if you sincerely express your gratitude, I can still accept it with equanimity."

Her Royal Highness was unmoved, and only cast a sideways glance. "As I said just now, that only shows your reason. To save me is to save yourself. Don't put gold on your face."

Toth shrugged, and he said nothing.

【Yanyanyanyan】Combination magic actually originated from the battle of Benlangling. In order to use 【Yellow Dragon】, he forcibly replaced the accumulated environmental energy with his own elements.

Inspired by the experience at the time, Toth intends to develop a stable and reliable application version, but there is still a long way to go before completion, and forced use will still lead to energy overdraft and weakness.

However, the synergy magic still worked, so Thoth was in a coma for a short time.

At that time, Her Highness the Princess was liberated from the black hole, and the evil spirit of foreign law screamed and retreated. The Dragon Emperor stretched out his big claws from the chaotic space and patted it, only smashing Thoth's false body...
