And the nobles of various families, the Church of Truth, the Empire's spies, the Evangelists, the Dark Fallen, and even the Ota royal family all have reasons to assassinate the witch.
Higrit knew that she had long been standing in the center of the turbulent undercurrent, but her heart that had been tempered for thousands of years could not make the slightest waves.
All enemies will eventually be crushed by violence.
The gauze shawl of the evening dress fluttered up suddenly, flicking along the witch's fingertips, reflecting a bit of the dream of the moon shadow.
The starlight in the black eyes accelerated the flow and rotation, awakening the silence of the boundless sea of consciousness.
A ray of black and white breath rises, it is the most quintessential will from a distant civilization, and the baptism of endless years has come to this world.
The light long veil was dyed by the breath, and it was wrapped around the arrow in the dark light along the direction of the storm, and the arrow body deviated from the forward direction after a slight shake.
The shattered dust shone with a faint pearl, and the witch seemed to be bathed in the holy dew, showing a bit of "fairy" artistic conception on her body.
The most soft in the world, gallop the most firm in the world.
This is the "Tai Chi" of Tao.
It's just that the suppression of the laws of this world followed one after another, and the sea of consciousness in the soul began to tremble continuously amidst fierce confrontation.Intense pain also spread rapidly in the witch's body.
But on that pretty face, there was no trace of any loss of color, and there was only the elegance of looking down on the world in the twinkling eyes.
boom--
The stray arrows remained undiminished, and disappeared after penetrating through several trees in succession. The broken trunks collapsed after a while.
The aroused smoke and dust dispersed instantly, clouding the field of vision here, which is naturally another secret trick of the enemy.
"Mr. Pervert, if you don't want to die, get out of here immediately, let's talk about the deal next time."
The witch glanced at the man in black beside him, who looked really embarrassed at the moment.
After the robe on the left was shredded, the academy uniform hidden inside was exposed, and the blood oozing from the waist had already soaked it into dark red.
The mask on his face was still firmly on, but one could imagine the painful expression on the other side's face at the moment.
"No, Miss Hermann."
However, the other party's answer was unexpectedly firm.
"Fleeing without fighting is unacceptable to me, please allow me to fight together."
The boy's calm voice was filled with gritted teeth, and his straight figure seemed to be completely unaffected by the arrow wound, still standing in the smoke and dust.
Higrit could see that the other party was not acting deliberately in front of her, but was truly conscious of facing life and death.
"Not bad, young man, so there are still men like you in the academy."
The Witch completely made her evaluation from the attitude of an elder. For those students in the academy who have not seen much blood, such a decisive response and fearless demeanor in the face of danger are absolutely excellent performances.
"Don't be brave, I'm still waiting for your two thousand gold coins."
Naturally, Higrit didn't need the protection of a little boy, but she vaguely guessed the real identity of the other party, so she had a little more tentative thoughts.
Whoosh whoosh—
The assassins were very cautious, and still did not choose to approach the battle. Sharp arrows began to shoot at the witch from multiple directions.
However, the arrows used this time are not the same type of magic crossbow arrows used just now, but ordinary mass-produced arrows.
The speed and power are all greatly reduced, and naturally there is no threat at all in Higrit's eyes.
But for a student whose magic power is below level [-], it is quite difficult to defend against such an attack.
The enemy's arrows obviously also included the man in black as the object of elimination.After dodging several attacks with agile steps, the boy was finally cornered by the arrows.
The young man, who lost his balance in the air and was completely unable to move, still did not panic in the face of all these murderous threats.
The ring on the index finger suddenly flickered quickly, and countless golden light spots burst out from the palm, and finally condensed into the shape of a long sword.
This is a weapon engraved with the sixth-level magical rune "space folding", a difficult work that only master-level inscription masters can complete.
when--
Strange magic runes flowed on the long sword, which collided with the oncoming arrows and sparked brilliantly, but the powerful blow also knocked the young man to the ground.
whoosh-
Another arrow mercilessly targeted the fallen boy, but the silver long sword emitted dazzling light spots.
The boy turned around in a strange posture and struck out a powerful blow. The golden arc of light exploded in the collision, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
"really……"
While Higrit dodged the back arrows around her lightly, she was also carefully observing the boy's swordsmanship with her mind.
The habit of exerting force in every muscle, the angle of the figure in every swing of the sword gradually overlapped with the figure of the old acquaintance in his mind.
"She taught you to look good."
Higrit has basically confirmed the identity of the other party, but he just can't figure out why this guy came to him alone to buy the sheet music at night.
There must be deep secrets hidden in it.
"Compared to ordinary people, it is very good."
According to Sigrit's estimation, there are at least five professional killers above level [-] holding magic crossbows around.
And the boy who can survive the enemy's long-range siege for such a long time can be said to be an absolute genius at this age.
"It's a pity that if I come to evaluate, I can only give you a failing grade."
Witches have always been strict.
This is even more so for His Royal Highness.
Chapter 24
The continuous forceful collisions with the crossbow arrows soon made Rhine's arms numb, and his figure also sluggish a bit.
But the enemy did not give him the slightest chance to breathe, and the more and more dense arrows vowed to nail him here first.
There must be a way!
There were already a few more scratches on the limbs, and now the young man could only avoid fatal injuries at the cost of minor injuries. As a result, his body became heavier and heavier, and he was about to reach his limit.
Back into the woods!
Compared with the open road, it is undoubtedly the best choice at this time to start a guerrilla attack with the enemy through the terrain in the woods.
At the critical juncture, Rhine tried his best to maintain his inner calm, but it was still more or less powerless for a student of this age to make a quick decision in such a high-intensity actual combat.
whoosh-
Just when Rhine was about to call Higrit to sneak into the woods together, another short arrow came straight to his head.
The boy tried hard to move, but his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move an inch. Suddenly, the arrow came to his face.
boom--
At the very moment, a silver light flashed in front of his eyes at a high speed, and hit the arrow head-on, causing the deadly arrow to deviate slightly and pass by his mask.
After the silver light bounced off, it was thrown high again, hitting the boy's head straight, which made him feel more painful than the wound on his body.
"I said don't be brave, didn't that woman teach you to run away if you can't beat it?"
After several twists and turns, the silver light finally fell into the young man's hands, but it was just an ordinary silver coin, which had been completely distorted at this moment.
After escaping from the gaze of death, Rhine heaved a sigh of relief.Although he still has the last card to save his life, the situation just now is undoubtedly vicious.
Was it saved by her?
Hearing the witch's mocking reprimand, the boy didn't have much rebellious resistance in his heart.He knew that the criticism was correct, and being grateful for the life-saving grace was the demeanor of a qualified knight.
"Thank you for your help, Miss Hermann."
It's just that the faint unwillingness and annoyance are still like stubborn weeds, growing uncontrollably in the weakest part of the young man's heart.
What a horrible performance.
It wasn't because of his sensitive self-esteem after being rescued by a girl of the same age, but because Rhine couldn't tolerate his own weakness.
The burden in his heart weighed down on that immature torso all the time, but it couldn't stop the young man from straightening his spine again.
He is not qualified to feel sad.
"If it's just to show your chivalry, you can leave now. This is not the battle you should join."
The cold ridicule nonchalantly blew away the chaos in Rhine's heart. Looking at the long hair blowing in the wind under the night sky, it was the composure and freedom that a young man only had in his dreams.
Thinking carefully about how the witch used the silver coin to deflect the arrow just now, I finally understood how terrifying this woman was.
The complicated steps of catching the line of sight, calculating the trajectory, and ejecting the silver coin were completed in an instant.Such a superb technique is difficult even for ordinary high-level practitioners.
Even knocking himself on the head in the end may be part of the witch's plan.
Sure enough...it was the same as what the teacher described.
The boy couldn't help recalling that during those years of penance, the teacher once talked to him about the witch.
"She's... an incredible person."
This is the evaluation of the witch by the battle-tested Grand Duke Rose.
The boy knew that although the teacher seemed casual, he rarely praised others.And this kind of sincere admiration was the first time he had seen it from the other party.
"What? Is she very talented?"
What flickered in Jadeite's eyes was not jealousy, but some kind of unwillingness to admit defeat.
"You'll understand when you see her."
Thinking of the corner of the Grand Duke's slightly raised mouth, the young man didn't really understand the artistic conception of the words until now.
"I can still fight! Please tell me what to do, Miss Hermann!"
He couldn't back down, but he also didn't want to be a drag on others. Obeying the arrangement of the strong was the best choice Rhine could think of at the moment.
"Then keep your eyes open."
The boy's unexpected answer finally earned Higrit a light smile.
There is no more harshness to criticize, a kind of detached tolerance from top to bottom is revealed in the star pupils.
Compared with Rhine's embarrassment, the Witch's dodging like a stroll in the garden was as calm as dancing a beautiful dance.
She flipped her bare hand lightly, and the six silver coins were suddenly caught between her fingers.
The trajectory of the arrow, the fluctuation of magic power, the vector of wind force...
All the data was running rapidly in the witch's mind, and the sea of consciousness shook violently like a volcano about to erupt.
"I found you, the mouse that hides and hides."
The powerful computing power instantly deduced the hidden positions of all the enemies at the moment, the light spots in the star pupils became more and more dense, and the indescribable mysterious breath rose from the witch.
"what is this!"
Rhine, who was watching from a close distance, naturally felt the most deeply. Although his knowledge of magic is still superficial, at this moment he can clearly perceive that this is a terrifying power that is completely different from the source of magic.
bang bang-
The violent heartbeat seemed to resonate with the mysterious rhythm, as if a hot flame was ignited in the chest, and the heat that emanated immediately began to surge through the whole body.
boom--
In an instant, the youth's emerald eyes were completely dyed golden, like a round of sun rising from them.The fiery sun directly illuminated the depths of the soul, allowing the power that had been dormant for a long time to begin to revive.
He finally understood that it was not the musical score that had just awakened the natural "sun" in the music hall, but the existence of this woman itself.
"Is this what the teacher... wants to tell me?"
Looking at that magnificent figure, the young man was completely lost.
The power handed down by the family blood had a strange reaction with outsiders, and the pupils soaked in the sun crossed the river of fate for thousands of years in a trance, and vaguely saw the blurred figure at the end.
At that moment, a great sense of sadness instantly filled the boy's chest, which actually made his dry lacrimal glands loosen again, and tears came out of his eyes.
"Why... who are you?"
boom--
The toe touches the ground and the skirt spins.
At this moment, all the witch's attention is focused on the enemy, and the accumulated fairy power has reached its peak.
