"I heard that the elf princess led the elite to bypass the front line of defense from the flanks, and burned and killed all over the village. That's why there are so many people who fled."

"A group of beasts. I heard adventurers say that the elf princess is cute and intelligent. I thought we would have a peaceful neighbor. I didn't expect such a vicious woman."

"All the healthy men were killed, only the old people and children who were hiding escaped."

The curse full of resentment made Fia's shoulders tighten.Although the things the soldiers described were neither their own actions, nor did they have the slightest memory, but the body of the elf princess came to him after all.It is conceivable that if the soldiers discover their identity, they will definitely swing their swords at themselves without hesitation.

However, the premise is that the soldiers can find themselves.

Observation during this period has convinced Fia that the soldiers will not check on short children, and there are many refugees who wear cloaks like herself. As long as she successfully blends into the crowd, she will never be noticed by the soldiers. .

Fia couldn't help pulling down her hood, making her body hidden in the bushes smaller, and carefully confirmed that the two soldiers walked away.

Afterwards, the refugee team finally arrived near the bushes where Fia was.

This is opportunity.

Stretching her neck slightly, Fiya tensed her nerves and focused on observing the situation before and after the road. After confirming that all the soldiers had gathered at the city gate and the refugee team had reached the end, she took a deep breath, lowered her head and tightened her pockets. Cap, get up from the bushes.

— But it didn't work out.

Before Fia got up, a hand suddenly covered Fia's mouth from behind.Not only that, but the other party put his other hand around Fia's waist, restrained Fia's hands, and pulled Fia back.

"Wow!"

Subconsciously, Fiya exerted force on her arms, trying to break free from the opponent's restraint.

But the other party's voice quickly made Fia stop.

It was a female voice full of anxiety, yet mixed with ecstasy and pleading.

"Your Highness, please calm down!"

Eh?

Chapter 8 Anastasia

A familiar voice, but definitely not one I've heard before.

This kind of description has a taste of self-contradictory, but this is indeed Fiya's idea, and it is this kind of familiarity from the heart that prevents Fiya from breaking free from the other party in the first place, otherwise, with her own strength, Forcibly breaking free will definitely cause the opponent's fractures and injuries.

Sensing that Fia in her arms gradually quieted down, the woman who rested her knees on Fia's head finally felt relieved, and her voice also became quieter.

"I know Your Highness, you want to take revenge on human beings, but there are too many of them, and it is too irrational to attack now. Our top priority is to return to the country first and report your safety to the king and queen."

An acquaintance of the elf princess.

Fia's brain was running fast.Although the other party only said one sentence, a lot of information can already be deduced.For example, the other party is someone from the elf princess camp, or even a servant of the elf princess.

"Your Highness?"

As if to confirm whether Fia understood what she said, the woman asked Fia as if to confirm.

Fia's answer was of course a slight nod.The servant of the elf princess must not harm herself.The other party still doesn't know her identity, and in the eyes of the other party, she is still that intelligent first elf princess.

"Huh, that's fine."

The owner of the voice breathed a sigh of relief, and then slowly reduced the force that restrained Fia, allowing Fia to squat and turn around.

Four eyes facing each other.

Smart blue eyes that seem to be talking.

This is Fia's first impression.

Wearing the same hooded cloak as himself, compared with the 14-year-old immature appearance of the elf princess, the other party is obviously a few years older, at least at the age of adulthood.The blond hair in line with the elf's inherent image was faintly revealed in the purple hood. Although her face was not as delicate as that of an elf princess, it was not too far away.On the left side of the girl's face near the ear, there is a cyan pattern made of lines, which makes the whole face full of enchanting charm.

The girl's bright blue eyes stared at Fia's eyes. Although she didn't say a word, Fia could read the joy of reunion and the joy of the surviving life from it. liquid, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

Not only that, but an indescribable kindness also emerged in Fiya's heart.The instinct of this body was telling her that she could completely trust the girl in front of her.

Speechless.

After less than a second of silence, the girl could no longer hold back her inner feelings. She wrapped her arms around Fia's neck and suddenly hugged Fiya into her arms. Throw on the ground.

"Dophelia!"

Fearing that Fia would run away, the girl hugged Fia tightly with such strength as if she wanted to become one with Fia, while gently rubbing her cheek against the side of Fia's face, and there was an obvious choking sound in her throat.

"To be alive... so good... so good..."

No, the elf princess is dead.

After being at a loss for a while, Fia answered inwardly.It's just that she couldn't bear to interrupt this reunion that anyone could see, and she didn't tell the truth.

Trembling very badly.

You must be very afraid that the elf princess will disappear.

Although he could feel the warmth of the girl, he had no extra thoughts, only felt sympathy and a little bit of loneliness.The sympathetic girl didn't know the fact of the death of the elf princess, and she was moved by the girl not because she was lonely for herself.

Fiya has never experienced the feeling of family affection, so she feels sad about this feeling.The fact that she has no relatives is clearly engraved in her few remaining memories, so when she sees a girl rejoicing for the reunion, she feels extremely lonely.Although he was reincarnated into a different world, this point has not changed in any way.

I am just an outsider, not starting a new life from a baby.

It wasn't until she felt that it was enough that Fia gently twisted her shoulders and pushed the girl away.

"This is not a place to talk, is there a better place to go?"

"Yes... yes." The girl gradually came back to her senses, she quickly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and regained her seriousness, "Please follow me, Your Highness."

She used the honorifics on her lips, but the girl took Fei Ya's hand, facing the road, stepping back step by step with a vigilant expression, away from the city gate.

Different from the delicate and slender palm of the elf princess, the girl's hand conveys a strong and powerful touch. Just holding it makes people feel safe-this is the hand of a person who often holds a sword.Even if she couldn't feel the hard calluses, Fiya could still make such a conclusion.

Being led by the girl to leave the bushes beside the road, the two of them walked quickly through the overgrown suburbs in silence, as if considering that the elf princess's physical strength might not be able to keep up with her, the girl sometimes deliberately slowed down.

Avoiding the surveillance of the soldiers on the city wall, the girl led Fia to the lower reaches of the river that passed through the city, and finally stopped at an inconspicuous place by the river. The ground suddenly disappeared, replaced by an underground passage slanting downward.

It is the magic of the earth system.Fiya secretly took this scene into her eyes, and knew without guessing that this tunnel must lead to the city.

Enter the tunnel.

Speechless all the way.

If it were someone else who led her into a dark place, she would definitely say nothing. Fia quietly observed the girl who was a full head taller than her walking briskly in front of her, but the girl in front of her It is the confidant of the elf princess—on the way, Fiya has already remembered where her sense of familiarity comes from. It is the revolving memory left by the elf princess to her.

When the elf princess was pierced by a human's purple spear, the girl in front of her was among the panicked people around.Probably after the death of the elf princess, he got separated from the team escorting the elf princess's body.

only.

After the identity was guessed, Fiya became embarrassed instead.

How should I respond to this girl who is loyal to the elf princess in front of me?

If she were a real elf princess, she would definitely be moved by the reunion of life and death at this time, and would accept the loyalty of the girl in front of her frankly.However, I am not an elf princess. Even if I pretend to be an elf princess, I will soon reveal my living habits and tone of voice because of the lack of memory of an elf princess. I don't know what kind of person an elf princess is.

Rather than being exposed after a poor disguise, it is better to tell the girl in front of him the truth from the beginning.That is, the elf princess was dead, and I came into the body of the elf princess only because of an accident.Of course, since the body is in his hands, he will not return the body. The body is not something that can be traded. If you return it to the other party, you will die.

Even if it would definitely make the girl in front of her sad, even distraught, there was no way to do it.I can only comfort this girl who helped me enter the city as much as possible——Fiya is the type who can't help but feel sympathy when she sees tears.

Thinking of this, Fiya couldn't help but look at the girl holding her hand.

This is really embarrassing.

It's a pity that I have never held a girl's hand in such a big age.I feel like I've always been alone.Just like the one sitting in the corner of the class, who is always out of the group and can only watch others discuss where to go on weekends.

Although the slender and soft touch was different from what I had imagined, it was still a girl's hand that was holding her.Especially this tight enveloping feeling that she was afraid of getting lost made Fiya's always calm mind feel at a loss.The experience she had never had before made it difficult for her to concentrate. She seemed to be able to smell the fragrance of the girl's body through her hands, so that she couldn't tell whether she was embarrassed by the opposite sex or yearning for the love between relatives. Attachment made her unable to let go of the girl's hand.

The thing called bond is as fascinating as a drug.

This is the so-called, people always pursue what they don't have.

Fia pursed her lips tightly.

For a moment, I couldn't help but feel that it would be great if I was a real elf princess.In other words, how happy it is to pretend to be an elf princess and integrate into their world.

This is not a lust for the flesh of the opposite sex, but a desire for deeper feelings.

Unfortunately, this time did not last long.

After a while, Fia felt that she and the girl started to walk uphill, the noise gradually came from her ears, and finally some light came from the dark and cramped passage.Finally, the girl stopped, and after confirming that there were no other sounds outside, she quietly let go of Fia's hand, turned to lift the wooden board, and led Fia out of the passage.

"Your Highness, we are safe. This is the temporary stronghold that I and others found. The businessman who manages this place says that you are the benefactor who saved his life, and he is willing to assist us."

"Ah..."

The disappearing warmth from her palm quickly calmed down Fiya's difficulty in concentrating. She swallowed her saliva, gave an ambiguous reply with a slight nod, and then turned her head to observe the stronghold.

It's more of a bedroom than a stronghold.

Just like an inn built entirely of wood in the Middle Ages, in a room less than ten square meters apart from the bed, there is only one table, and there is an extremely unsightly thick wooden stake in the middle of the house to support the roof.The windows are opened at a height that can only be touched by standing on tiptoe, and the house is only illuminated by candle lamps hanging on the walls, no matter how you look at it, it is extremely simple.

"It surprised you, Your Highness, Anastasia Ushiel is willing to take full responsibility for the failure of this battle."

Without any explanation, the girl unbuttoned the cloak, revealing the pointed ears and long golden hair under the hood, and knelt down in front of Fia on one knee.

As Fiya guessed at the beginning, this girl named Anastasia is about 18 years old, and she looks somewhat similar to the elf princess, but her temperament is completely different from that of the elf princess.The elf princess has a noble and elegant temperament, while the girl in front of her gives people a firm, reliable and mature feeling.The straight sword at the waist already indicates the girl's occupation, she is a swordsman.

It is undeniable that if the girl puts on a dress and matches the dark blue lines on the left face, she must have a certain charm.

As if feeling ashamed, the girl blushed and asked through gritted teeth.

"You... are you okay?"

Sure enough, there will be this moment.

As long as I am still an elf princess, I will always have to face it.

The body stiffened for a moment, and Fiya couldn't help sighing inwardly. She hesitated for a while, and said calmly.

"Anastasia, it's a good name. But I'm no longer an elf princess."

Chapter 9 Recognition and Interpretation

"Not an elf princess?" Anastasia's voice rose sharply, her body kneeling on one knee swayed, she raised her head suddenly, her blue eyes filled with fear, "What do you mean? "

"It's literally."

Fiya spread her hands, and although what she was going to say next was cruel, there was nothing she could do.

If possible, I really want to agree like a real elf princess, and experience the family and friendship that I have never had before, but I don't have the memory of an elf princess.Appearance can be concealed through disguise, but living habits, favorite colors, tastes, small unconscious movements and even attitudes towards people will reveal yourself.

Rather than pretending to be an elf princess and then revealing the situation within a day, it is better to explain the situation from the beginning, so that maybe you can still gain a good impression and let the two parties sit down and have a good talk.As for the possibility that the other party regards him as an enemy, he has absolute force, so he doesn't need to worry about his safety.

How sad.

Fia felt irritated in her heart.The current self can easily destroy a city and release the world's most powerful ninth-level magic at will. Even if Anastasia hears the truth and is not good for him, he doesn't need to worry about Anastasia causing trouble.

"The elf princess you knew is dead. The people standing here are just empty shells of elf princesses."

"Ha, haha, Your Highness, what are you talking about, aren't you still you?"

Anastasia couldn't help laughing dryly, but that reliable face betrayed her, and her heart was shaking.

Her eyes shifted from Anastasia to the floor, and Anastasia's behavior made Fia feel bad.Now I am like a doctor who has excellent medical skills but can't cure Anastasia. He can only stand on a high place and look down on Anastasia who is pleading.Feeling unbearable, Fiya reorganized her words.

"Well—when the elf princess was injured on the battlefield, you were also there, right? I mean the moment when the elf princess was pierced through the body by the purple spear."

"Yes, this subordinate was by your side at that time. It is the captain of the imperial guards who didn't react immediately and blocked the sneak attack of the "unsinkable moon" for you... It is a shame for this subordinate. This subordinate will not do it for you Negligent sophistry. If I had realized earlier that it was the "Unsinkable Moon", an artifact used by the Holy Nation to protect the Pope, the outcome of the battle would not have been as embarrassing as it is today."

Having said that, Anastasia bowed her head deeply again.

"That's not what I meant." Fia shook her head. "What I mean is, Anastasia, do you think normal people can survive with their entire chest pierced?"

"As long as there is healing magic—!"

"That's right," Fia turned her palms towards Anastasia, who was full of eagerness, and motioned for her to listen to herself first, "Healing magic can heal that kind of injury, and high-level healing magic can even regenerate severed limbs. But once people Confirmed death, no matter how advanced the healing magic is, it can't make her regain her sanity. Less than half a minute after being hit by human magic, the elf princess is already dead. You should understand, right? Otherwise, people won't use it Carriage transporting the body of the elf princess."

grunt.

Anastasia's throat visibly rolled.This showed that Anastasia knew that everything Fia had said was true.

However, Anastasia still had a glimmer of hope. She changed from kneeling on one knee to kneeling on both knees, rubbing her knees against the floor, and moved closer to Fia little by little.

"But, but you are in front of me now, a living person! Dophelia, you are not dead, no," at the end of the words, already full of trembling, Anastasia grabbed the corner of Fia's cloak with both hands, covering her face. crying, "This is not a dream..."

Immediately afterwards, Anastasia seemed to have suddenly remembered something, and suddenly raised her head. Her bright blue eyes were full of begging and hope, making Fia think of a terminally ill patient who was desperate for life.

"It must be because I didn't protect you well, so you blame me, right? It must be like this? Dophelia, I can't live without you! You can spit on me, scold me, take it out on me, ah, I am willing Take all your anger, but I can't live without you. I've sworn to you, I'll fight for you with every breath in my body, and you can always believe... trust me..."
