I really only stop

"We bought the location of the ruins at a certain auction. Because the information contained on it is relatively obscure, the starting price is very cheap, and we have found a big leak~"

This is not entirely a lie.The location information engraved on the badge of imperial power can only be unlocked by Sky City, which also belongs to the floating kingdom. Even if other people who don't know how to buy it, it's just a nice decoration.

Of course, Xia Li would never tell the pure Nana beside him if he made preparations long before the start of the auction, such as 'if someone who is not open-eyed pays a high price to buy it, just cover up and grab it'.

"However, I never thought that Xia Li is actually a swordsman."

Compared with the location of the ruins, Celica is obviously more concerned about the shiny long sword in Xia Li's hand:

"This sword is so handsome, does it have a name?"

Why does the sword have a name?

Despite complaining in his heart, Xia Li still kept a sunny smile on his face:

"This is just our [made-to-order] sword, and we haven't had time to name it yet."

"Oh, that's right. As a senior of the swordsman profession, I want to tell you something very important—that is [it is very important to give your beloved sword a powerful name]."

Swaying her sword-shaped staff ostentatiously, Celica raised her cloak imposingly:

"The name of this sword is【Magic Sword·End Yan】, it is a powerful magic weapon that has gone through countless calamities, and finally condensed its own "soul". Very handsome?"

"hiss--"

Obviously, he has no experience in dealing with a guy like Zarika. Facing her sudden impromptu performance, Xia Li's flawless acting skills unexpectedly showed a momentary flaw:

"Yes, yes! What a valuable experience! Mmm! Let's remember, Celica-senpai!"

"Ahahaha~ I hate it~ What did you say [Senior]~"

Although she shook her hand modestly on the surface, Celica, who was honored as "Senior", showed an honest expression on her face like a cat being masturbated:

"I've decided! You are very intelligent, you can be specially approved as my disciple~"

No no no Miss Celica, what you are holding is not a sword but a staff?

With Xia Li being so well-informed, he naturally couldn't fail to see the truth about the toy in Celica's hand.

Although we are pretending to be swordsmen, you can't just insist on being our swordsman!

... In order to play the role of [the fledgling rookie swordsman] well, let me bear it!

Having gambled on the glory of his [Officer·Fake], Xia Li restrained his desire to complain, and showed a joyful expression very professionally:

"Yes! Master! We will work hard!"

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

As the first echelon that opened the way ahead, Lu Xi and Yuxiya, who walked side by side, had no intention of participating in the lively small theater behind.

Continue to use 【Holy Word·Red Sea】to clear the obstacles, but Yuxia suddenly called out:

"Luci."

Lucy was taken aback:

"what happened?"

"Is [Xia Li] really trustworthy?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity of whispering, Yuxia approached Lu Xi quietly, and said in a low voice:

"Although he claims to be a swordsman, there are no marks left by frequent use of the sword on his hands, and even the posture of carrying the sword is very jerky-this makes me feel bad."

As expected of Miss Saintess, she could see something wrong with Xia Li so easily.

Although he is like a bright mirror in his heart, Lu Xi is obviously not stupid enough to confess Xia Li's status as a cadre to the paranoid Yushiya who is obsessed with "correctness" like this:

"Don't worry, she is someone you can trust. After Osiris' confirmation, the existence of the ruins is also real. As for the fact that there is no trace of using a sword on her hand—"

Stretching out his hand in front of Yuxia, Lu Xi smiled slightly:

"Look, don't I, who is also a swordsman, have no calluses?"

"Lu Xi is Lu Xi, how can your situation be the same as his."

With a reproach on her lips, Miss Saintess really held Lu Xi's hand in front of her eyes, and looked at it seriously:

"I've been wondering since before, although sometimes I would call out some weird sword moves, but is Lu Xi really a [swordsman]? What if Celica opened the maze that day? For other weapons, will Lu Xi's [weapon he is good at] become something else?"

"Ah ha ha."

Lu Xi, who was speechless, could only respond to Yuxia's question with a dry smile.

Yuxia really knows me too well. She said that if Celica offered a light weapon other than a sword that day, even if it was just a dagger, I guess it would go downhill. Donkey used it.

After all, Time Stop hacking doesn't care about the type of weapon.

But, speaking of careers...

"In Yuxiya's opinion, if I'm not a swordsman, what would be more suitable for me to change my profession?"

"Eh?"

Seeing Yuxia's cute look stunned by her own question, Lu Xi smiled slightly:

"Until now, the occupation column on my adventurer card is still unbiased [adventurer]. According to your suggestion, I may advance to the corresponding occupation."

"Why, why did you suddenly entrust such an important decision to me!!"

Faced with this sudden and important decision, even the gentle lady like a saint can't help feeling a little flustered:

"For adventurers, choosing a career to develop in the future is a very, very important thing. Lucy is too childish!"

"No, no, this is the proof that I trust you completely."

Usually, she is always suddenly teased by Yuxia, but today Lu Xi decided to counterattack a little bit:

"As the Holy Empress who guides the people to the right direction, you will definitely help me make the right decision."

"So, that's why I said... oops!!!!!!"

Biting her lips in annoyance, Yuxia, who was caught in unprecedented entanglements and troubles, couldn't help punching the wicked Lu Xi:

"—In that case, Lu Xi might as well become a clergyman just like me!"

"Priest?"

Lu Xi said that he did not expect Yuxia to give such an answer:

"why?"

"Of course it's because of Lu Xi's full [Holy Light Affinity]."

Rolling her eyes coquettishly, Yuxia said seriously:

"With such a talent, as long as Lu Xi enters the Sanctuary for further study for two years, he will definitely become a powerful clergyman surpassing Uncle Sutton. At that time, I can naturally arrange duties for you in the Sanctuary. This kind of benefit will also be very generous.”

Immediately after His Majesty Tesla inherited the throne, he arranged for his old brothers the official positions of the empire. Now it seems that Miss Saintess, who does not let her fat and water flow to outsiders, really deserves to be his own precious daughter.

"(Super soft voice) And, as long as Lu Xi becomes a clergyman, your future and our destiny will be more closely linked, hehehe..."

——Wait, what did Yuxia just say? !

Although Lu Xi couldn't hear what Miss Saintess said, the subtle change in her eyes at that moment was definitely not aimless!

[Beast Intuition] in the skill list started to tremble again!

Intuitively aware that something was wrong, Lu Xi, who was absolutely not reckless when it was time to be cowardly, resolutely gave up this dangerous topic:

"Because I just experienced a teleportation and now I have traveled so many ways, the ruins should not be far from us, so pay attention to the surrounding situation."

"Hmm~"

I don't know how long the future was in my head at that moment, and the saintly lady who was in a good mood responded happily.

PS: I confess, I want to eat the soft rice of Miss Saint (→)

Chapter 517 Isn't there even a single normal person? !

[Dear Commander, you have arrived near your destination, and this navigation is over. 】

"Thank you, Ko-bah, Nova."

Lu Xi, who was almost speechless, coughed dryly, and looked around:

"It's different from what I imagined."

"That's right, I thought I could see a very impressive building!"

Celica, who has exactly the same temperament as Lu Xi in some respects, nodded immediately:

"After traveling for so long, I only saw an empty lot in the end. To be honest, I am very disappointed."

As Celica said, when a group of people arrived at their destination following the guidance of Osiris, the destination was not a building like the palace tower, and even a strangely shaped totem pole could not be found.At the location marked as [end point], there is only a piece of flat and bare land.

There are no traces of powerful relics at all!This kind of ordinary place is just an ordinary place at first glance!

"No, you can't say that."

Shaking her head slightly, Yuxia explained to Lucy and Celica:

"It is unnatural to have such an open space in a land with almost no human habitation like the Monster Forest. You see, the dividing line between this open space and the surrounding forest is quite flat. If it weren't for someone going deep into the Monster Forest every day for pruning, Then there must be some other force maintaining the phenomenon in this clearing."

...Is this the current Holy Empress?

Carrying out the image of a rookie swordsman, Xia Li, who stood obediently behind Lu Xi, heard this analysis, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

I heard that this Holy Empress is the childhood sweetheart of Eldest Sister Claire. She is not only talented, but also skilled in both magic and martial arts. She is also a saint of the Holy See and a princess of the Empire, with a prominent family background.

I thought it would be enviable enough for a person to be so strong, but I didn't expect her to be so outstanding in wisdom.

It's scary, plus that little guy over there who can see through our gender at a glance, even if Lu Xiqing is eliminated, there are still two people in this four-person team that we should fear.

To be able to gather so many freaks, Lu Xiqing's luck in making friends is really terribly crooked.

Thinking of this, Xia Li, whose mouth twitched slightly, subconsciously looked in the direction of the soft girl:

Ms. Nana who is soft and soft is better~ In such a team full of monsters, Miss Nana who is simple, clear and easy to talk is simply an angel——

[Zla. 】

The sound of the zipper being unzipped clearly entered Xia Li's ears. She was counting the good things about the soft girl, and she subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.

【Blink blink】.

——Afterwards, he happened to meet one of the eyes in Nana's tool bag.

----------

……

……

……

? ! ? ! ? ! ? !

It took a full three seconds for the brain to shut down before successfully restarting successfully. Xia Li's ears were filled with his own intense heartbeat.

eye eye eye eye? !

Why is there an eye in Miss Nana's kit? !

Muppet?Toys?

Hahaha that's right, isn't it normal for a cute child like Ms. Nana to carry a doll that can't sleep without holding it~

ahahahahaha——

——No, you can’t lie to yourself.

Lowering his head heavily, Xia Li's forced smile instantly turned into fear from the bottom of his heart.

It can't be a doll or anything like that!We swear, that eye absolutely blinked just now!

It it it is alive! !

Why is there a living creature in Miss Nana's tool bag?Won't you suffocate if you zip all the time?What exactly is that living creature?

The intuition we developed after wandering around the rivers and lakes for a long time is strongly warning us that maybe Ms. Nana is the most dangerous one in this team! !
