I really only stop

I still like to yell as always, but unfortunately, according to my current sleepiness, even if I arrange two Celicas to chatter non-stop in my ears, I will definitely fall asleep.

But... why is she clasping her hands now, as if praying for me?

That mouth shape... No, I'm too sleepy, it's hard to concentrate...

Can vaguely recognize the words 'weak...brave...rest in peace'?

What is she saying?

Before Lu Xi could react, a pair of warm hands gently cupped his cheeks:

"It's sleepy, right, I know it."

It was a gentle and healing voice like an angel. Compared with this, the Arcane Magic Blade on Earth is simply weaker.

No, if I hear such a voice, I will feel sleepy even more——

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

——The next moment, the sudden light of the Holy Light made Lu Xi wake up in an instant.

----------------

"Oh~ I didn't expect Nana and I to fall into a half-sleepwalking state as soon as we went out to bask in the sun~"

With a hearty smile, Lu Xi scratched his hair:

"However, even in the semi-sleepwalking state, I can still find you with Nana. Hmm! This must not be a coincidence, but the unbreakable [bond] between us!"

"No matter how sensational you are, you can't solve the current predicament, Mr. Lu Xi."

Pretending to be old-fashioned, she patted Lu Xi's shoulder, and Celica sighed deeply:

"The unhappy Yuxia is not as easy to coax as Nana. Besides, you have already been given the holy spell of writing a blessing and reading it as a curse. Everything is over, so accept it with peace of mind."

"What kind of ghost is your design? Uncle Lika?!"

Of course, Lu Xi would not let Zelika look forward to his complaints:

"I just went to ask Mr. Mayor for information. What did you do to Yuxia? I've never seen her like this before!"

At this time, Miss Saintess smiled and told Nana, who was sitting honestly in front of her, about interpersonal communication knowledge such as 'distance can produce beauty~'.Although she looked the same as usual, there was definitely something wrong with her aura!

Like sunshine on the coldest winter day!Although it looks very bright and warm, it actually makes people tremble!

"Huh? I didn't do anything~"

In the matter of pushing the blame, Zelika is definitely at the master level.She opened her eyes wide in surprise, and deliberately snorted:

"Compared to me, the problem with Ruoweixi is bigger, right?"

"This--"

Lucy was dumbfounded.

Indeed, the walking posture of myself and Nana who were almost sticking together just now could easily cause misunderstandings—but that was really a choice I made because I was too sleepy!

As for now...

[Holy Art · Protection of Vitality (Continuous) (Infinite) (Powerful): A powerful holy art that provides infinite vitality to the protected person. Not only will the body never feel tired, but it also greatly resists various negative emotions. strengthen.Let you have unlimited vitality at any time and be yourself. 】

[PS: There is no one of the favorite holy arts of social animals. 】

Glancing at the status description on the adventurer's card, Lu Xi, who felt that his body was full of strength, sighed sadly.

Excluding some particularly motivated elites, for ordinary people like Zelika and me, daily sleep is an essential activity.The meaning of sleep is not only in [resting the body], but also means the relaxation and relief of [the end of the day].

"—But now, we will never sleep again."

Celica still maintains a [deep + sad] voice:

"In the dead of night, when everything is silent, we lie on the bed, looking straight at the ceiling. The moon outside the window moves from one end to the other, but we still don't feel sleepy at all, we can only wait for the sun rise again—”

"—Stop it! I don't want to!"

Already recalling the pain of insomnia gradually following Zorika's narration, Lu Xi hugged his head vigorously:

"Getting some sleep is a must every day! I can't imagine a life without ever being able to sleep!"

"As expected of Weak Weak Xi~ He actually said exactly the same thing as me~"

Patting Lu Xi's shoulder vigorously, Celica's voice suddenly became a little lighter:

"Don't worry! Just now, Yuxiya and I cleverly set the conversation. The main reason why she cast this [curse (blessing)] on us is to consider the nature of this incident that requires continuous rotation of black and white. As for the punishment or something , that's just an excuse to carry it on the wristband - if it doesn't work out as I expected, after we finish off that vicious Balrog, Yuxia will help us remove the holy spell~"

...Is that so?

Somewhat stunned, he glanced at the lady saint who was preaching something to Nana, and Lu Xi nodded suddenly.

Always focus on the most important things, but on the premise that it will not affect the business, I will also take the opportunity to express my little emotions.

In this way, even the angry lady saint is cute~

----------------

"So, let's summarize the information."

After Miss Saint's lecture to the obedient and soft girl was over, before she turned her attention to herself, Lu Xi acted preemptively and started the business-to-business mode:

"Nai Nai and I have read all the written materials that are almost time-matched. Except for a brief history published by the Empire, we did not find any useful clues."

"Actually... the situation on our side is similar."

Sighing slightly, Yuxia said:

"There are so many things that happened in more than a hundred years, even if I focused on the mayor, it would be difficult for him to say anything."

It can be seen from some subtle performances that Mr. Mayor is completely ignorant of Heleyer in the cemetery.When Yuxia asked insincerely, "Has there ever been a demon in this small town?", the mayor gave a quite positive answer, "At least in the data, no".

"... It's not good to ask someone, it's still not good to go through the book."

Hearing that the investigations on both sides had encountered obstacles that could not proceed, Celica, the most impatient, sighed deeply, and pulled Lalushi's sleeve instead:

"Why don't we go home? According to the mission rules of the guild, even if the commission fails, you only have to pay liquidated damages equal to twice the reward. Anyway, this is a public welfare mission, and the compensation will not be much."

What Celica said was also a solution, in fact, a hint of retreat also appeared in Lu Xi's heart.

He originally came here to launder his fame.But looking at the current situation, Heleyer has been staying in the cemetery for some reason and can't come out. Apart from disturbing the people at night, he will not cause harm to the townspeople—according to the world's weird evaluation standards, in such a situation Now, even if the white and red names are laundered, it is estimated that the countdown will only be delayed by a week or two.

Although the countdown on the account is abundant and not as urgent as before, it's just a waste of time to have a head-on confrontation with Heleye, who has an immortal body, and it's better to pack up and go home as Celica said.

But, having said that--

"Since we saw the demons, then naturally the only option is [destroy], right?"

She took Celica's little hand affectionately, and the smile on Miss Saintess's face was bright and bright, but it made the former's [True Beast の Intuition] frantically warn:

"Protecting ordinary people from harm by monsters or demons is the responsibility of adventurers. It has nothing to do with the difficulty, let alone the reward. When we encounter people who ask us for help, how can we not stop and help them kindly?" Woolen cloth?"

Celica (shuddering):

"Then, what does Yushia mean?"

"The rest of today's time is free to move around. Let's take a look at the situation of that demon in the evening~"

While talking, Miss Saintess nodded happily between her eyebrows:

"My [Apocalypse] skill tells me that there might be a turning point tonight~"

Obviously we didn't do anything, but we can turn things around?

Looking at Lu Xi who also thought of this point, Celica finally nodded obediently:

"...Just, just listen to Yuxia..."

PS: Two chapters, come and go

Chapter 428 Dangerous bickering

"Yusia's obsession with the demons is really not simple..."

Leaning against the shade of a big tree together with Celica, looking up at the blue sky, Lu Xi suddenly expressed such emotion:

"Also, even though the environment is so comfortable, I don't want to sleep at all now, it's so uncomfortable."

"Me too..."

Moaning weakly, Celica followed Lu Xi's example and looked up at the sky:

"The effect of Yuxia's [Blessing of Vitality] is really good. It's obviously very quiet here, the temperature and sunlight are just right, and the grass where I'm sitting is also very soft and comfortable, and there's also a breeze that blows from time to time—— Obviously it's the right place for taking a nap! It's so uncomfortable to be unable to fall asleep even if you close your eyes and be silent for 5 minutes!"

"Same feeling."

When it comes to activities like fishing, Lucy and Celica's ideas are always unexpectedly the same.Even with just one look, they can understand each other's thoughts tacitly.Therefore, a certain pink hair who didn't want to disclose said 'how long have you two been married'.

"—But, I'm by your side? Why do you still say this is [a place suitable for taking a nap]?"

Seeing that it was impossible to get any sleepiness if he continued to be in a daze, Lu Xi suddenly turned his head and looked at Celica who was very close to him with a slight smile:

"Ah! I understand. You feel very at ease by my side, so you subconsciously want to sleep, right? If you think so, tell the truth, you tsundere Rika~"

Anyway, I have nothing to do while waiting for the night to fall. When I feel bored, I will take the initiative to dance with Zorika, and the subsequent conversation will definitely become very interesting.

"Who, who is Tsundere Rika!!!"

As Lu Xi expected, after hearing what he said, Celica immediately patted him with her little hand:

"I just wanted to say that there is a blue sky, big trees, and grass here. It was originally a perfect napping place with a perfect score of 99, but because of the presence of a weak and weak animal, it will now become a [-] percent score!"

"Although you say so, but think about it from another angle, isn't your meaning still [taking a nap next to Lord Lucy is worth a super high score of 99 points]~"

Turning her body completely to Celica, Lu Xi covered her mouth on purpose:

"Puff puff ~ Tsundere Rika ~"

"Damn! Why does Ruoweixi always interpret my words as being beneficial to her!"

Puffing her mouth out angrily, Celica rolled her eyes and decided to strike back:

"So what about Ruoweixi? To actually get the right to take a nap next to me, you must be so happy that you are about to fly, right?"

Ah, this guy actually wants to use my method to retaliate against me, didn't he think that I would have corresponding countermeasures?

With a chuckle in his heart, Lu Xi suddenly smiled heartily, and threw an abrupt straight ball calmly:

"Of course, Sir Celica is so cute, and it is definitely my luck in my life to be able to get in touch with you at such a close distance - if I can go one step further and get your knee pillow, I should have no regrets in my life. "

"Eh, ehhhhhhhhhh?!?!"

Her whole body trembled as if she had been electrocuted, and Celica, who never expected that Lu Xi would suddenly throw a straight ball, rolled her eyes in small circles because of shyness and surprise:

"You, you, you, what did you suddenly say! I, others, I, I didn't... oh!!! I hate it!!!"

Look, superficial Zorika, all your reactions are within my expectations.

Twitching the corner of his mouth coldly, Lu Xi nodded as expected.

Don't look at this little Lika who is always careless, once she encounters some critical things, she will become more frank than anyone else.When the back-and-forth rants get the upper hand, as long as you throw a straight ball along the way, this girl will definitely give up obediently.

In this way, I still win today's bickering——

"—Okay, okay, okay!! Come on, come on!"

"Eh?"

Just when Lu Xi was about to end this daily bickering with his face-jumping as usual, the girl next to him spoke with the momentum of breaking the boat and made him freeze in place for an instant:

"What, what come?"

"Didn't you say that you want my knee pillow! Then come!"

Although the blush on her face spread to the base of her neck, Celica still sat upright, and patted her thighs vigorously with her two little hands:

"I'm never afraid of any challenge! Since this is a sincere plea from the small and feeble Xi, so what if I respond as an absolute superior!"

"!!!"

His eyes couldn't help looking at the girl's black knee socks. This time, he changed to Lu Xi's side in a panic.

She she she she actually agreed?Why?It shouldn't be!

According to her usual temperament, at this time [Zarika waved at me with a powder fist that was not painful at all] is a normal development, right?Why did you really agree! ?

"Oh? Aren't you coming?"
