Without wasting time, Fiya waved her arm, and the fireball shot at the three of them in an instant.
The ground erupted violently.
◇
When Fiya appeared on the ground carrying three witches and the bandit leader with the hands of space, it was half an hour later.
Throwing the four of them on the ground like throwing trash, Fia joined Renee who was surrounded by a group of women in the yard.Renee is worthy of being a soldier who can serve as the deputy captain of the Imperial Guard. All the robbers on the ground were beaten to the ground by Renee, and the villagers who were locked in the iron cage were also released. Some of the strong men were still alive. They took the initiative to tie the robbers together with ropes. From their skillful movements, it can be seen that these men are not villagers, but adventurers or soldiers.
"Master Thanatos, all the robbers on the ground have been dealt with."
Kneeling on one knee in front of Fia, Renee said as a servant knight.
"Well, the robbers below have also been dealt with, there are no darkborn inside."
"There are no darkborn... Am I tracking it wrong?"
Renee fell into the hands of the robbers in order to track down the "Ruler" among the Darkspawn, and was discovered by Fia in that village. Now that she went deep into the robber's lair but couldn't find the Darkspawn, she naturally thought that she had found the wrong person .
"It's too early to draw conclusions. Wait until the boss wakes up and ask. Also, although I don't know if he has colluded with the Darkborn, it is certain that he has something to do with the Witch."
"Witch? You mean Friede?"
"I don't know," Fia shrugged, pointing her chin at the three witches on the ground, "They may also be members of another faction. Anyway, I plan to hand them over to Friede to handle them. Compared to this , I care more about Mi Lu here."
Fiya moved aside to let Mi Lu with short hair follow behind her. Renee's pupils shrank involuntarily when she saw those iconic cat eyes.
"Mi Lu? Shouldn't it be in the hotel? Why did it appear here?!"
"I don't know either. She doesn't seem to know me, and she doesn't want to talk to me. I guess it might be Mi Lu's sister."
Fia sighed softly.After solving the witch and the bandit leader, Fiya tried to talk to the short-haired Milu and asked her why she appeared here. As a result, the short-haired Milu just nodded and shook her head to Fiya's question, and could hardly speak. There is a big difference between Milu, so Fei Ya temporarily distinguishes short-haired Milu from long-haired Milu.
In addition, the matter of Mi Lu's immortality also surprised Fiya, but this is not a place to talk after all, so Fiya decided to go back to the hotel first and let the short-haired and long-haired Mi Lu meet.
Subsequent progress is easy.
First of all, the robbers, since most of the robbers were either stunned by Fia's "mental shock" or physically knocked out by Renee, it didn't take much effort to tie the robbers in the yard.
Then there are the survivors. Except for the dozen or so women that Fia rescued, among the survivors are innocent villagers and soldiers from the Barony of Keza who surprised Fia. When Fia asked why the soldiers fell into the hands of robbers, Most of them bowed their heads in shame.
What happened was that Baron Kesa had ordered a patrol team to pull out the stronghold, but because there was an insider in the patrol team and the stronghold was extremely strong, the operation ended in failure, and they were also captured alive by the robbers.Although some of the soldiers committed suicide after being tortured, most of them survived, and although the soldiers didn't say the method of torture, Fia guessed from their faltering words that it seemed that there were some good men among the robbers.
This world is so messed up.
After that, the kidnapped villagers plan to go back to the village and find ways to find the family members who were sold by the robbers, while the soldiers will return to the patrol team to find out the ghosts and execute them. Finally, those kidnapped by the robbers and tortured Except for a very few women who had just been arrested and said they wanted to go home, the rest of the women who committed violence all lowered their heads in a gloomy expression when faced with Fiya's question of "where are you going next?"
Even if they had been raped by robbers, they would only be looked down upon by others and even their family members even if they returned home. In addition, some of these women had been in the hands of robbers for too long, and they were already mentally disturbed. Even if they were rescued, they would just giggle or remain silent In other words, Fiya was a little worried that if she let them go like this, they might commit suicide, so these women had to make good arrangements.
Of course, there are only a few people who are mentally disturbed. Most women, especially the female warrior who attacked Fia at the beginning, after seeing the starry sky outside, they all reacted like normal people—shedding tears in order to regain their new life. And rejoice.It is also worth mentioning that since most of the women wear clothes that cannot cover their bodies, Fia gave them the cloth she took out from the treasure house at the end of the underground to wear on her body.
As for how to deal with robbers and cottages, it is still in accordance with the practice of the Alfred Kingdom. The robbers are wiped out by Fia, and the robbers and the treasures of the robbers become Feiya’s personal belongings, but the treasures can be taken away, and the cottages must be burned. Later, some robbers moved in and continued to do evil. Fei Ya had no objection to this. It was useless for her to want this cottage, and it would be better to burn it down sooner.
In addition, considering that the follow-up life of the villagers who suffered is very difficult-you don’t need to think about it, their village must have been burned by robbers, and their family members and neighbors were sold as slaves. Now that they are displaced, starting from scratch is almost as difficult as going to heaven, Feiya planned to distribute the money from selling the robbers to the villagers so that they could build new homes or find the sold wives and daughters.Although an average of two or three gold coins per person is not too much, but at least it can give them some hope of survival.
The messy treasures in the treasury are already Fia's property in name, but Fia doesn't want to simply accept them. These are the things that robbers plundered from innocent people. , using them directly will disturb Fia's conscience. Fia intends to communicate with Baron Keza first, and ask Baron Keza to find the former owners of these treasures. If there is no evidence to claim them, Fia will use these treasures Do something meaningful.
For example, use the money to build an institution for orphans, or set up an organization that helps victims of robbers return to normal life.This world is too harsh on the weak. Fia has only been in the World Tree Continent for less than a month, and she has seen too many poor people who have suffered misery. She hopes that the world can be more gentle.
In the end, the robbers will be escorted to the city by soldiers, and the villagers will return to the city with the soldiers.As for those women who had suffered misfortune, apart from those who wanted to return to normal life, Fiya asked them to stay in the cottage first and be guarded by female warriors to prevent anyone from committing suicide.
As for their future, Fia wanted to find Friede from the Witch Hall to see if she could take these women in and let them take care of cleaning and washing clothes on a daily basis.Most of the women here are village girls, and some are the daughters of nobles and merchants. It is not a problem to do some cleaning and the like.
If Friede can't take him in, he will communicate with Baron Keza, use the robber's money to establish an organization that protects orphans or helps the victims of robbers, and then hires these women as helpers. They don't know Elvish, and they can't bring back the elves. In China, with the backing of Thanatos' name, Baron Kesa should provide them with a certain degree of protection.
When the women heard about Fei Ya's arrangement, the originally lifeless courtyard quickly came alive. They asked Fei Ya for some needles and threads, hoping to make clothes by themselves so that they could meet people in the future. In addition, some noble women longed for simple Cosmetics, while female warriors want swords and armor for protection.After Fia said that they could go to the treasure house to get it by themselves, the crowd cheered softly.
Although the female warrior volunteered on the way and suggested sending someone to protect the treasury to avoid malicious intentions, but considering that the women here would not leave the village, Fei Ya simply nodded and did not make any specific arrangements.
In this way, on the way back to the Elven Kingdom, I had to fly back occasionally to have a look—if only there was teleportation magic, Fia couldn't help but sigh.
After handling everything properly, Fia took Milu with short hair, the three witches and Renee on the way back to the hotel.The physical fitness of the three witches is very good, so Fia can hang them with a rope to fly, while Milu and Fiya hold them around their waists. Compared with the long-haired Milu's stubborn character, the short-haired Milu is quite She is less and more well-behaved, and she is very cooperative when facing Fiya's hug. She just raises her head frequently along the way, observing Fiya's face curiously.
It was already ten o'clock at night, and there were only a few people in the hotel lobby. Fiya, who had removed her mask, led Milu with short hair into the hotel gate.
Seeing that Fei Ya came back with another "Mi Lu", the guard at the gate widened his eyes and showed an incredulous expression, but Fei Ya didn't care, she went straight to the room with the dirty short hair Mi Lu.
Chapter 22 Night talk
"Welcome back—huh?"
Liti, who opened the door with a euphoric tone, froze instantly when she saw Mi Lu beside Fia.
It must have been startled by the short-haired Milu's eyes, Fiya thought so, and introduced as she walked in the door.
"This is Mi Lu's elder sister or younger sister. I found her in the robber's stronghold and brought her back."
As for the three witches, Fiya asked the front desk to prepare the lowest-level room on the way here, and ordered Renee to lock the three witches in the room.In order to prevent them from escaping, Renee fed the three of them the sleeping pills that they had given to the robbers before, but within two or three days, they couldn't wake up on their own.
It is worth mentioning that when Fiya said "prepare the lowest-level room", the front desk staff showed "I understand" and quickly arranged the room for Fiya. It was obviously the lowest-level room, but the price was lower than There were three extra silver coins in the normal room, which surprised Fia. After careful questioning, Fia found out that it was a single-person dungeon provided by the hotel for guests.
The amenities are over the top.
"Where's Anastasia?"
Fei Ya looked around the room, there were only Liti and Mi Lu in the room, there was a chess board on the bed, and the two of them should have been playing chess just now - Fei Ya believed that Li Ti taught Mi Lu how to play chess, in this world, playing chess It is almost an exclusive activity for nobles, and commoners have no time and energy to play chess leisurely.
"Sister Anna said that she would meet Baron Keza, so she left a quarter of an hour ago. She probably wanted to inform Baron Keza in advance. If Baron Keza can join us in the end, let him choose to stand by my sister."
"Separate."
While Liti was explaining with her index finger on her chin, the short-haired Milu on the other side had slipped into the room from Fia's side.Seeing the short-haired Mi Lu, the long-haired Mi Lu opened her eyes slightly and looked surprised, then put her hands on the short-haired Mi Lu's shoulders, and said very seriously.
"I don't need you anymore. She is a good person and will let you out again when she has a chance."
"Ah."
The words fell, and the long-haired Mi Lu and the short-haired Mi Lu were stuck together between the foreheads. The short-haired Mi Lu's body was quickly covered with a faint red glow, and then the white hair and body gradually became transparent, first the forehead and arms, then the shoulders and lower limbs , the short-haired Milu seemed to blend into the body of the long-haired Milu, and the two became one in just a few breaths. Only the simple clothes that the short-haired Milu dropped on the ground could prove that there should be four people in the room.
"Uh……"
Not knowing how to react, Liti looked at Fia for help, but Fia also didn't know what happened. At first she thought that the short-haired Milu was the long-haired Milu's sister, but now it seems that this is not the case.If it wasn't for the calmness of the short-haired Mi Lu, Fei Ya would have rushed to pull the two of them apart just now.
"Mi Lu, are you..."
"That's a clone." After merging with the short-haired Mi Lu, the bloody light in Mi Lu's eyes became much more beautiful. She walked slowly to Fia and looked up at Fia, "I can't leave the city, I can only let her go out instead of me, and you saved me again, thank you."
Ordinary people will only feel uncomfortable and have a numb scalp when stared at by these bloody cat eyes, but Fei Ya can read the sincerity from the slightly flickering smart eyes. Against the backdrop of too fair skin, Mi Lu's deep red eyes Her eyes seem to have the magic power to suck people in, and there is a faint madness in her eyes. Compared with "human beings", Mi Lu gives people the impression that she is more of a monster, or a monster girl.
Since there is a word "beast" in the star crystal beast, it should indeed be very different from humans, but I haven't discovered it yet.
Unknowingly, she had been staring at Mi Lu's bottomless eyes for a long time, and Fei Ya quickly looked away. She first let the yawning Liti go back to the room to sleep, and then called Mi Lu to sit at the table say.
"Okay, there are only the two of us here. If Mi Lu believes me, tell all your secrets. As far as the current situation is concerned, there are too many things that people don't understand about Mi Lu. Of course I am not I have to know, it’s fine if Mi Lu doesn’t want to say it, the reason I’m asking is just to—”
"I believe you."
Before Fei Ya finished speaking, Mi Lu agreed immediately, as if she hadn't seen enough of Fei Ya at all, her deep red eyes kept staring at Fei Ya's cheek.
Embarrassing.
Although Mi Lu is only a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old, after Liti's dressing up, her petite body and exquisite facial features have begun to take shape as a beauty, especially the grayish white hair hanging down the chair behind her. Underneath, Mi Lu appeared to be even smaller, and a pitiful feeling came over her face.As long as it takes time, Mi Lu will definitely become a crazy beautiful girl.
Therefore, being stared directly at by Mi Lu made Fiya feel embarrassed.
As if reading Fiya's inner thoughts, Mi Lu showed a smile on her lack of emotional ups and downs, but this smile quickly turned into a blushing like embarrassment, and she withdrew her gaze from Fiya.
"Fia...should I be addressing you as the master now? That...when I was in the restaurant just now...thank you."
"At the restaurant?"
"Let me beat Dick."
Mi Lu's reminder reminded Fiya, who smiled wryly.
"It was Fried who caught Dick, not me."
Mi Lu stubbornly raised her head.
"But without the master, that woman named Friede would definitely not help me."
Although this is indeed the case, isn't the title "Master" a bit too strange?Fiya couldn't help but be thankful that she was reincarnated into the body of an elf princess instead of an elf prince, otherwise she would be alone in a room with a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl at night, and the other party only wore cool clothes and called her master, Outsiders will definitely misunderstand that they are playing a vile master-servant game.
Fiya pressed her right hand to her lips and coughed twice.
"Hmph, Mi Lu can just call me Fei Ya, there is no need to have one master at a time."
"Excuse me?" Mi Lu tilted her head in doubt, "But slaves always call their adopters like this, no matter noble or rich. Ah, I'm not the master's slave yet, that's why..."
"That's not what I meant," Fiya waved her hands again and again, "I just don't like the word 'Master' that seems to regard itself as an object. Mi Lu can use a more suitable title."
"Then," Mi Lu thought for a while, "—Mom?"
"Uh, this isn't very good."
How did he make the leap from master to mother in one step?
Although according to the age of an elf princess, it is more than enough to be Milu's grandmother, but she is only a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old in appearance, and the name "mother" is too much-but it is undeniable that my heart just now Shaken for a moment.
Being rejected by Fiya, Mi Lu's expectant expression gradually disappeared.
"...I still like to be called Master."
"Is 'sister' bad?"
"That purple-haired girl already called Master that."
I don't know if it's Fiya's delusion, but Fiya always feels that Mi Lu has an expression that seems to be angry.
I can't be dissatisfied with Liti taking the title of "sister", otherwise this possessiveness is too strong. I and Mi Lu have only known each other for a few hours. Generally speaking, possessiveness will only show up in familiar people Body is right.
"Then it's up to Mi Lu. Who is Mi Lu's master? I plan to wait until dawn to find Mi Lu's current master and release the slave contract on Mi Lu, then Mi Lu will be free."
Fei Ya thought that Mi Lu would be embarrassed to name her master, but Mi Lu answered the question with a question. She pursed her lips, showing a look of hesitation.
"That... why did the master help me? First, he wanted to help me offend Dick, and now he wants to release my slave contract... I am a cursed person, not only will I not die, but also these eyes that will bring misfortune , usually those people see me dodging before it's too late, but the master takes me to the hotel and wants to release the slave contract for me, is this good for the master?"
Although Mi Lu had met people who were not so afraid of her eyes and gave her enough to eat before, those people often just suddenly showed kindness, and they would leave after supporting Mi Lu, and most of them had other reasons. The villain in the picture is very different from Fia.Mi Lu thinks that she has nothing to give Fiya, and when she can't bring benefits to her, Fiya's actions are surprising, especially Mi Lu can feel that Fiya has no intention of hurting her, which makes her Mi Lu was even more at a loss, she had never seen someone like Fei Ya.
"Benefits?" Fiya blinked incomprehensibly, "Can't you help Mi Lu if there are no benefits? Seeing a group of strong men bullying a little girl, if they can beat them, normal people will choose to help, right?"
"But I am a cursed calamity—"
"If the curse and calamity Mi Lu mentioned means that as long as you meet Mi Lu, you will encounter misfortune, then let's stop here. I said it twice before, and this is the third time. I don't want to repeat it the fourth time. Listen well, I don’t think misfortune will happen to me, if there is such a thing as fate, then it’s better to compete, I believe that Mi Lu’s eyes are a little special, not as scary as people say.”
Fiya is not a character who shrinks back when encountering difficulties. On the contrary, the more difficult something is to overcome, the easier it is to arouse her competitive spirit, and she can feel that Milu does not have the curse like Claire. It was just because of the horrible eyes that someone splashed dirty water on it.
"Believe me……"
Stared blankly, Mi Lu murmured in a low voice, and an extremely complicated expression appeared on that strange and exquisite face, both as if she was incredulous that she was recognized by others, and as if she was angry at the teasing of fate.
After a while, Mi Lu came back to her senses, she stretched out her hand towards Fei Ya, but the outstretched hand stopped in mid-air.
"Master, can you extend your hand?"
"Yes, yes, what is Mi Lu going to do?"
While speaking, Fiya put her hand back in front of Mi Lu, and Mi Lu carefully stretched out her index finger as if she was touching a fragile object. Instead of swipe, she gently pressed the back of Fiya's hand with her fingertips. , due to the extremely light movements, Fiya could hardly feel Mi Lu touching her.
It's like some kind of ancient ritual.
"it is true……"
When Fei Ya was curious about what Mi Lu was doing, Mi Lu, who gently pressed the back of Fei Ya's hand, withdrew her hand, her eyes swayed slightly, and her eye sockets became red. She swallowed hard, as if she was suppressing sobs, but Tears were already silently streaming down the corners of his eyes.
Is this crying?
Fia stood up quickly.
"What, what's wrong?"
He didn't remember that he bullied Mi Lu, if Anastasia came in, he would definitely be looked at suspiciously.
Mi Lu immediately wiped the corners of her eyes and lowered her head so that Fei Ya would not see her making a fool of herself.
"It's nothing... just too happy... I... it's the first time I've been treated like this. Before those people saw me being bullied, they would just laugh at me... Master was the first person who was willing to help me... When the master helped me in the afternoon, I thought I was dreaming..."
Are you the first?
People in this world are too ruthless.
Fiya tried to hug Mi Lu like Anastasia comforted her, but Mi Lu quickly recovered from her gaffe. Although her eyes were still red, she no longer looked like she was crying.
Mi Lu's psychological age is much more mature than her appearance, and Fei Ya couldn't help but think that what happened when she was young would greatly change a person's character.
