Civilization Guardian Front

"Yes, so I have to have a little fun with it."

"What fun?"

"Being above others, stepping down the elites who specialize in various fields one by one, so that ordinary people can only look up to them, and they can't be jealous. They look at me as if they are looking at God... how about it, it's very interesting ?"

"It's okay, but I probably understand the origin of your wicked personality..."

Tifa sighed.

really...

Realizing again how distorted the soul of the executor partner beside her is, on the one hand she feels helpless, on the other hand, she can't help but feel distressed for Chios' extremely unhealthy growth experience.

He is not accompanied by his parents or siblings, and he always wears a mask known as acting when dealing with others.

Trust has become a luxury that is hard to come by...

The only pride and self-identity that can be pursued is the aloofness of being a strong person.

"I...uh!"

The girl was about to speak when a piece of shellfish was suddenly stuffed into her mouth.

"Don't think too much..." Chios withdrew his hand and threw away the mussels that were left with empty shells.

"I'm willing to admit that my personality is a bit distorted, but my life is far from miserable, right?"

Picking up the fork and starting to roll the black cuttlefish noodles, he continued calmly:

"Just like I won't sympathize with your past experience, and you don't need to worry about my old things. Instead of licking each other's wounds, you might as well look to the future... For example, how many children should we have? Is one a year too much?"

"What!? Cough cough cough!"

Tifa coughed violently.

"Why get excited, or are you saying that you don't want to bear children for me?"

"Ma'am, it was so sudden! And...and..."

"stop."

Without giving Tifa any room to regain his mind, Chios looked directly into the girl's flustered eyes and asked:

"Would you like it or not, is it difficult to give an answer?"

"But... that's not how it was said..."

"Um?"

"..."

Facing Chios's nasal snort, Tifa bit her lower lip after half a minute of silence, and nodded slightly, suppressing her embarrassment.

Chapter 680 Nine? Worried about your daughter's future

"Huh? Going to sea!?"

Hestia put her hands on her hips and glared at the port master at Merlin's Wharf.

"Should...should be..."

The middle-aged man with a shaggy beard nervously flipped through the records of ships entering and leaving.

It's not that he is timid, but that there are too many famous characters standing in his not-so-spacious office.

Nine Demon Princesses, Sword Princesses, Garden of Purity...

There is also the main god of the Hestia family who was just promoted to B-level a month ago and is in full swing.

Living in a port town not far from Olalie, he is no stranger to the city known for its adventures.

I have heard about the great exploits of adventurers, heard stories about the gods, absurd or serious, and occasionally imagined the exciting career of being an adventurer while drinking three rounds.

But he really didn't expect that his life trajectory would intersect with these big men.

Until 3 minutes ago, this group of anxious-faced big men broke into the port office, pushed open the door of the harbor master's office, and aggressively asked the whereabouts of the ships that were still docked at berth 13 until last night.

The sudden shock and fear were simply indescribable.

at the moment...

After a flurry of fuss, the port master finally turned to the correct page.

"The boat left at two o'clock in the middle of the night, I'm sure."

It was obviously a very simple sentence, but after he finished speaking, he felt exhausted.

The sense of oppression released by the women in front of me is really terrifying.

It seemed that once they couldn't give them the answers they needed, they would slash at people's foreheads with a sword in the next second.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another question came from his ear:

"anything else..."

Riveria stepped forward, frowning as she looked at the extremely crude records in the record book.

"What's the matter with these blank columns? Your port administration will never be slack in handling things until the destination of the voyage, and you don't even know the number of people on board and the date of return?"

As soon as these words came out, the blond girl who was as delicate as a puppet next to the elf royal family had a slight look in her eyes, and put her right hand on the hilt of her sword.

"Uh...Calm down, don't do anything!" Noticing Jian Ji's small movements, the Harbor Master backed away in fright.

"There is, of course, a reason for this, I really didn't deliberately conceal it!"

"real?"

Ace tilted her head.

In the posture of being ready to draw her sword at any time, the girl's behavior that should make people feel cute makes people feel inexplicably disturbed.

"I swear..."

gurgling...

The middle-aged man rolled his throat and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

After a while, Jian Ji finally let go of the hand holding the weapon.

The Harbor Master was relieved.

The brain, which had been almost stagnant before, started to function again.

Except for the male deity who was leaning against the door frame and bowed his head wondering what he was thinking, all the uninvited guests present were women, and their expressions were more or less anxious.

Among them, Goddess Hestia, three Loki family members, and a dogman seemed particularly anxious.

I used to hang out with him too late in the tavern, and when I was asked which woman to hang out with when I got home, the expression on my wife's face was actually like...

Huh?

Maybe you can't do it yourself and discover something extraordinary?

So, the person they're looking for won't be...

God!

The Harbor Master's pupils shrank sharply.

(Be sure to play dumb, otherwise even if they don't do it, the hero will kill me with his own hands when he comes back...)

Not daring to think about it any further, the Harbor Master made up his mind to bring this secret to his grave, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand back and forth, and told what he knew:

"That ship was contracted by a mysterious guest at a high price with God Njord almost a month ago. Because the other party strictly required confidentiality, and no one could afford the huge liquidated damages, the sailor who signed the contract said They are very tight, and I dare not drink too much when I go to the tavern, because I am afraid of making mistakes..."

"That's all I know. If you want more information, you may have to ask God Njord."

"Okay." Of course Hestia would not be fooled by the name of God.

"Njord where is he now?"

"This... I don't know either. Speaking of it, it seems that I haven't seen God Njord since yesterday..."

"Hmph, that child must have revealed something, which made him hide in advance."

Clenching her fists, Hestia gritted her teeth and said.

She didn't want to experience the meticulousness of Chios' plan in this kind of matter.

Earlier, at the suggestion of Riveria, a member of the Hestia Familia, asked the residents near the Piriano Manor and the Twilight Pavilion, and the answers were all consistent and no abnormality.

On the other side, Riveria, who was in charge of visiting the urban gendarme, also returned without result after talking with Shakti.

According to Hermes' speculation, Chios should have used some magic tool or special spell similar to Hades' helmet to hide his figure.Tifa relies on the delicate control of wind attribute magic to achieve the effect of shielding the sound when moving.

Everyone then searched for the real estate under the name of Chios.

Since most of the mansions and shops are currently being used by tenants, they are really idle, and there are no self-use properties rented out. There are only [-] buildings in Olarie, and only eight buildings in the suburbs outside the city. The investigation work is very difficult. almost done.

The result, of course, was nothing.

If it wasn't for Hermes' careful observation and discovery of the small creases left on the grass leaves beside the road leading to the port town, which had not been fully restored, they might not even know which direction Chios is going.

After finally chasing to the port town, the clue disappeared in the vast sea...

Why?

In the past month, Chios has basically maintained a two-point and one-line life of "exploring the dungeon during the day and returning to the manor in the evening", and the rare rest days are also occupied by girls' invitations.

Busy to such an extent, he actually managed to arrange various matters of elopement without telling others, and planned the escape route perfectly, even a few hours before the action last night, he could still do it so intensely...

From beginning to end, no clues were exposed.

Obviously, you have been careful and careful, paying attention to all possible signs of derailment.

(Why on earth is he so proficient!?)

Hestia cried out in despair.

...

On the coast around Merian, in the sea cave...

After finishing the simple but delicious main meal, he packed up the tableware and returned to the camp. Tifa took out the mille-feuille cake made in advance from the heraldry space and served it to the table.

"I thought you had some kind of intention in asking that kind of question. I didn't expect you to seriously tell me the benefits of having a daughter..."

"Disappointed?"

"Mostly concerned about your daughter's future."

"Hahaha..."

Seeing the helplessness on Tifa's face, and the faint hint of treating the non-existent "daughter" as a rival in love, Chios couldn't help but find it funny.

"Don't worry, although it sounds like I'm going to get pregnant soon, I'm not ready to be a father yet."

"You just don't want to be responsible?"

"...Tch, do you know how to chat?"

Now, it was Tifa who couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Forget it, we are still young, don't talk about the next generation..." Chios rubbed his eyebrows.

"I have a gift I want to give you as a commemoration of our official start of dating."

Chapter 690? I'm Coming For Real

Hearing that Chios said that there was a gift for herself, Tifa's eyes flashed with curiosity.

Unlike many people who have to wait until the birthday or Valentine's Day before hastily allocating fragmentary time to prepare surprises for girls, Chios has done a lot of things like gift giving.

Unless the time is so tight that it is difficult to schedule, if you pass by a shop with a slightly distinctive display in the window, Chios will usually go in to see if you can find interesting products.

There are no restrictions on the price, as long as the quality is not too bad, from hundreds to tens of millions of fares are acceptable.

There is no loss in picking a few more small gifts for spares, it is better than rushing around when needed...

Tifa was well aware of Chios' habits.

Since the two became partners, she not only received gifts from Chios many times, but also witnessed him buying a lot of "inventory" in one go while shopping.

Therefore, what she cared about was not the gift-giving itself, but what the young man planned to give this time.
