Civilization Guardian Front

"You're not thinking of anything bad, are you?"

The elven royals who were keenly aware of the young man's gaze narrowed their eyes.

"You think too much, I don't want to be frozen into an ice sculpture by the city's strongest wizard..." Chios wisely gave a negative answer.

Without waiting for the other party to respond, he immediately turned the topic back to Ais before sunbathing, saying:

"It's been almost nine years since I watched Ace grow up from a child at the age of seven, no wonder you are called "Mom". "

Ding...

The hand of the beautiful elf stirring the teaspoon was so strong that it almost cut the thin porcelain teacup.

"Don't use this address like Loki..."

Riveria was obviously displeased with the word "mother" being added to her.

"It's not that I like to meddle in other people's business. At the beginning, it was Finn who used the reason that "as the leader, he can't take care of certain members from his standpoint", while Grace simply used gender as a shield, and cooperated with Loki to take care of Eisner. The child's responsibility is pushed to me. "

"Well, I can completely understand your helplessness at the moment..." Chios shrugged.

"But honestly, you're thoroughly enjoying it now, aren't you?"

"..."

For the first time, the elf royal family had the urge to punch the opponent's neat appearance.

I had a vague premonition yesterday when I was joking with the pipe, but now that I'm getting familiar with it, I realize that this wandering knight's temperament is really not ordinary bad taste.

Especially like to sprinkle salt on other people's wounds.

What single woman would be happy to be called "mom"?

Could it be that because of age, it is inappropriate to use titles such as sister and teacher...

Riveria silently clenched her hand under the table.

"Wait, before you do it, let me add..."

Based on the vigilance brought by experience, Chios raised his hand in time to stop Riveria's possible violent behavior.

"Excluding the joking elements, the reason why you use this name is probably related to your temperament. How should I put it..."

"If I had known you like I do now from the beginning, knowing that Ms. Riveria Rios Alf is a stern yet gentle adventurer senior, I am afraid I would have no way to refuse to join the Loki Familia invitation.

"What did you go through in the past to be able to say such a compliment without being ashamed..."

Sighing with a voice as clear as a spring, the elf woman turned her face away, looked away from the face of the young man opposite, and cast her eyes on the garden view of the south courtyard.

Her face was still calm as always, but her pair of long, pointed ears, which were dyed rosy, revealed her inner turmoil from the side.

"That's too much, Riveria..."

With his chin resting on his left hand, Chios watched with interest the calm profile of the elf royal family.

The elves who usually give the impression of being arrogant and indifferent are actually extremely thin-skinned.

Just as many daily clothes that others don't care about can make them feel ashamed, the appearance of conservative and xenophobic is just an armor to protect introversion and shyness.

To use the words that Chios is familiar with...

Elves are all tsundere.

Thinking of this, Chios pursed the corners of his mouth slightly, outlining a smile with a hidden evil taste.

"Actually made my confession speech seem to have ulterior motives."

"It's not like, you just have ulterior motives..."

The elf royal family cast a sideways glance at the young man, and said angrily.

She didn't make it clear what kind of "heart" the other party was using, she knew that would make the topic expand in an ambiguous direction.

"The affiliation of the family has been confirmed, so there should be no point in currying favor with me now, right?"

Who knows if Chios' attitude is sincere or a prank...

The former troubled her, the latter embarrassing.

There are already enough hidden dangers in the Loki family, and they all stem from the dangerous man beside him. If even the deputy head is involved in the whirlpool, the situation will be serious.

For Riveria, the best way is to avoid in advance and not fall into the trap.

Use euphemistic sentence patterns to deny other possible results of pleasing her.

After understanding the deep meaning in Riveria's words, Chios' expression did not change, and he did not speak, just staring at the other person's face.

Tap, tap, tap...

The young man tapped the table with his right index finger unhurriedly, each time precisely hitting the second beat of the elf's heart.

No matter how the elf's heart rhythm changes, the heart-wrenching drumbeat never gets lost.

Gradually, she couldn't tell whether it was the pulse of her escape being caught up by the other party, or her heart was actively catering to the other party's rhythm.

"..."

Riveria's breath was a little messed up.

Pretending to be indifferent, he picked up the teacup, however, the tea in the cup should have been calm, but at this moment, there were frequent ripples.

It was caused by the slight trembling of her hands...

It wasn't the tremor caused by the heartbeat, but because of Chios's silent and pressing action, not knowing what method he would take next, which came from the fear of the unknown.

She doesn't worry about clear and specific speech because she can find ways to deal with it.The vague intentions like this one are the most confusing.

Just when Riveria couldn't hold back her anxiety and was about to ask Chios for a reply...

despair!

After an aggravated knock, the young man withdrew his hand as if he had finally given up.

"Perhaps, it really doesn't make sense..."

Hearing Chios' emotional words, Riveria, who was sitting opposite the young man, secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

But soon, she found that her left chest was a little dull.

Hirai's previously calm heart lake was disturbed, and the aftermath of the turbulence turned into a faint melancholy, lingering in his heart, and it took a period of time for precipitation to slowly return to normal.

Maybe this is the purpose of the young man's actions just now...

Plant an anchor.

Realizing that she still lost a bit in this offensive and defensive battle, Riveria was both helpless and funny, but couldn't get angry.

Why make this kind of thing like a game of wits, as if it's unpleasant not to provoke others...

"You are really terrible..." The elf woman shook her head and sighed.

"I think it's necessary to reconsider whether I can entrust Aisi's affairs to you."

It is absolutely stupid to talk about other women when you are alone with them, especially in relation to relationships.

Knowing this well, Chios shrugged his shoulders and replied:

"I actually see her as a younger sister."

Puff!

Facing Chios' obvious lie, Riveria couldn't help but laugh.

"Okay, let's take it that way for now."

"In that case, I hope you, as her brother, will do me a favor..."

...

Loki Familia stronghold, Twilight Mansion...

"Speaking of which, where did Lady Riveria go?"

In the circular atrium, the orange-haired goblin suddenly asked a question.

The misunderstanding of the relationship between Aisi and Tifa has been resolved, and Refia, who understands that she is self-defeating, has also recovered from the state of shock.

But what followed was unparalleled shame.

Facing her crazy apology, although Miss Tifa said tolerantly that it's okay, Miss Ace tilted her head directly to express her confusion, Refia still noticed that the eyes of the two people looking at her had obviously changed. .

After all, normal people would not use this kind of vision to speculate on the relationship between two women...

Ahhh!What is in my rotten mind? ?

Refia cried out inwardly.

(I always feel that the eyes that Miss Ai Si looks at me now seem to be looking at some kind of dirty thing, woo woo woo...)

The reason for bringing up the matter of the deputy head of the family is not for other reasons, but simply to hope that the atmosphere can be changed.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Aisi, who was not far away holding a wooden sword and practicing empty swing, and Tifa, who was sitting on a stone chair quietly reading a book, seemed to have a premonition of something bad happening, and they had a tacit understanding. Qi Qi stopped what he was doing and looked over.

Obviously, this question successfully aroused their interest.

"Early, after waking up in the morning, I didn't see Master Riveria. Lady Riveria taught me today's magic class in advance yesterday evening, saying that she was not free the next day..."

Under the watchful eyes of Aisi and Tifa, Refia suddenly became a little embarrassed, her right hand involuntarily clasped her left wrist, and her head drooped lower in shame.

"Yes...is it because Master Riveria has something very important today, that's why you haven't... come back?"

Tifa frowned gracefully.

Indeed, after solving the incident of Mizudou's rampage yesterday, Riveria, who returned to the stronghold, seemed to be very busy, rushing to complete more work.

The problem is, almost no one knows what she's doing it for.

If it was for family affairs, the deputy head should have notified all the staff during dinner time, or at least asked someone to pass it on.

According to this line of thinking, it is very likely that Riveria's reason for going out today is a private matter...

But why, I feel heart palpitations now?

She carefully matched this abnormality with a similar situation in her memory, and after a while...

(Could it be!?)

The dark-haired girl's eyes widened suddenly.

Chapter 550 Six? The scene of the palace fight

"Tifa, what's wrong?"

Aiz could not help feeling puzzled when she noticed that the black-haired girl had a different expression.

"Though it's just my guess..." Putting a bookmark on the reading page, Tifa closed the "Lasteo Fren's Strange Records of the Continent" borrowed from the library.

Her slightly frowned eyebrows slowly relaxed with a sigh.

"I'm wondering if the deputy head is in Chios' manor."

"No way!?"

Refia opened her mouth in surprise.

"Lord Riveria, how, how could she..."

She grew up in Olalie's school district since she was born. Although she is not as "pure natural" elves like Alicia, she respects the elf royal family to an undeniable degree, but regardless of her ethnicity, family status, and magic ability , Riveria has enough elements to make her respectful and longing.

Such a noble and perfect Lady Riveria would actually have a close relationship with a human male?

impossible!

Thinking of this, she suddenly became nervous.

"Could it be threatened by some reason, and it cannot be disclosed to others, otherwise it will hurt..."

"Chios wouldn't do that kind of thing."

Jian Ji's assertion put an end to the goblin's fantasies.

"Calm down, I'm not saying that the vice-captain has any special relationship with Chios." Tifa smiled wryly and pressed her hands, signaling Refia not to panic.
