Jiewen's mouth twitched, a few drops of sweat rolled down her face, and she spoke cautiously:

"What, what's wrong? Qili..."

Qili's behavior just now can be regarded as an aggressive behavior. On this occasion, she couldn't help but feel a little scared.

Qili turned around and said calmly: "It's okay. If you don't believe me, you can ask her."

Only Shi Liuli behind her noticed that Qili's earlobes were already so red that she couldn't help but want to take a bite.

But because of the shadow, no one noticed it.

Suddenly, she felt Qili's elbow nudge her without leaving any trace, and then she reacted and said quickly:

"Yes, yes! It's okay, ah - well, we know each other, yes, that's right, we know each other..."

Qili's eyes twitched, but she nodded calmly. Just as she was about to follow Shi Liuli's lame words to cover it up, she saw Jiewen scream——

"Ah!!! It's you!"

???

what happened again?

Shi Liuli looked at Jiewen in confusion, and then found that the other person looked more and more familiar, and gradually overlapped with a certain figure in his memory...

oh!It turned out to be the orc I saw on the street today~

Jiewen didn't pay too much attention to Shi Liuli because of several high-level mages such as Lebeni and Yali, so she didn't find out until now that he was the person who ruined her things on the street today.

And Shi Liuli is because——

Well, because she forgot that such a thing existed...

"...You guys know each other too?"

Jiewen quickly denied it: "No, no, no, I don't know him. I saw it wrong."

But the Duke couldn't let the Duke know that she had been out today, otherwise unnecessary suspicion might arise against them.

But that’s not what Shiruri thought——

"Ahaha... what happened this morning - huh!? Uh-huh! Why are you so tired (why are you here too)!?"

As expected, Shi Liuli's mouth was covered again.

It's just that Jiewen was the one to do it.

Jiewen covered Shi Liuli's mouth with one hand, and held the back of her head toward her with the other. She stopped when the two were almost touching each other, her pupils shrank into a vertical line, and she said viciously:

"I don't care who you are, but shut your mouth now, otherwise - I'll do it to you!"

"Woo!?"

Shi Liuli was like a frightened kitten, whimpering and trembling.

Help!I just want to apologize. Why do I have to encounter the same thing twice?

Also, could you please stop being so close? Your posture is very strange!Doesn't this become like kissing? ?

Although she had all kinds of complaints in her heart, Jiewen's eyes seemed to cut her alive. Under the pressure, Shi Liuli had to nod to show that she understood.

Seeing this, Jiewen finally let go of her hand and said the words she had prepared in a hurry:

"Sorry everyone, I just took a closer look and found that she looks like a friend of mine, so I got a little confused hahaha..."

So fake!

business?

"..."

Everyone present was not a fool, so naturally they would not expose others in front of their faces, so they just exposed it like this.

But these two episodes also made Shi Liuli the focus of everyone's attention. Rayafari stared at Shi Liuli closely, trying to see something from her.

If it was not what she expected, Shi Liuli should be the person Jiewen said not long ago, who ignored the Thousand Barrier Cloak and saw Jiewen's true body.

But Layafali looked left and right, but she didn't see anything. She couldn't even feel a bit of spiritual energy on the other party, as if Shi Liuli was just an ordinary person who had never practiced cultivation.

And... the other party seems to know Qili's origin.

Qili's origin is a mystery in their team. The other party only said that she came from the Elf Forest, and said nothing else.

Shaking her head, Layafali forced herself not to think too much.

After all, no matter what happened to Shi Liuli, does it have anything to do with them?

Regardless of what Layafali thought, after Shi Liuli was noticed, Duke Brinis narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly said:

"Speaking of which, is this kid the one who injured Klee not long ago?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly froze. Everyone froze, as if time had been suspended.

Is it finally here...?

Beiming Youyu thought in his mind, his eyes slightly drooped, and he adjusted his breathing, as if he was ready for the moment when he and the Duke broke out, and could strike preemptively.

This is the territory of Duke Brinis, so it is always wise to be cautious.

There was a meaningful smile on Yali's lips, as if she was not worried that the situation would get out of control and develop to the worst possible outcome.

LeBeni stood up and said seriously:

"Duke, I think you should——"

"President Le, please don't be nervous, I just want to confirm."

Duke Brinis interrupted Le Beni's speech, making Le Beni's face look slightly ugly.

Sensing the change in the atmosphere, Weir suddenly panicked on Layafali's side and said in a panic:

"Um, could it be that you made a mistake? You did something like that and you came here... It's impossible no matter how you think about it, right?"

Jiewen secretly cursed stupid girl, this matter has nothing to do with them, why are you interrupting!

But what Weier said is correct. How can anyone beat someone else's son and still have the shamelessness to come to someone else's house for dinner?

Shi Liuli scratched his head and said with some embarrassment:

"Well, actually I was the one who hit him..." He immediately turned to the Duke, "I'm not playing tricks with you. It was your son who tried to kill himself first. You should have guessed that, if you are right If you have any opinions, feel free to do so!"

"But I don't think you have that ability.", she added.

puff!

Hearing these words, LeBeni almost spit out the tea she had just taken into her mouth, coughed several times, and choked.

This Takuma is too arrogant! ?

Duke Brinis's face twitched, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and he forced a smile——

"You're joking. I probably know the whole story. I don't have any responsibility, little friend. It's my failure to teach my son well. It's better to say that I have to thank you for showing mercy."

As he spoke, he also pretended to beat his chest, making Shi Liuli almost believe the other party's lies.

"..."

"Yes, that's it..." Shi Liuli responded with a haha.

Even though he said this, Shi Liuli still complained bitterly in his heart.

How can a father who has his own son be beaten take the initiative to give in in front of the beater?

Maybe now people are stabbing her to death in their hearts!

It was just because he was worried about the existence of the magister Bei Ming Youyu that he could not take action until now.

What Shi Liuli didn't know was that when the other party learned Yali's identity, he had already put aside all thoughts of revenge.

Although he didn't think Shi Liuli would get to know Yali, but as members of the Mage Association, would Yali and Lebeni still watch their own people being bullied?

#亚丽: No, I think it’s too early to tell who is bullying whom...#

Besides, the reason why he invited Shi Liuli and others this time was not for revenge - at least not now, but for another important matter.

"Okay, the dishes are about to get cold while we wait, so you should take your seats. If you have anything else, we can talk about it after dinner, okay?"

The Duke said with a smile, as if he had completely forgotten what happened just now, which made Shi Liuli secretly say that the other party was really cunning.

If the other party doesn't pursue the case now, it's just a bargaining chip for the future layout.

As for what the layout is...

It will probably be revealed soon.

Everyone took their seats one by one. Shi Liuli didn't worry about the other party being poisoned or anything. He didn't care at all that this was someone else's house and just started eating and drinking, which shocked everyone at the table.

At this time, even Yali couldn't keep her face any longer.

What a shame...

Soon, after everyone had had enough wine and food, Duke Brinis picked up the cloth on the table, wiped his mouth, and said:

"Are you satisfied with these dishes?"

Yali smiled lightly and said: "Yes, very delicious."

After receiving Yali's praise, Duke Brinis couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

"Thank you for your compliment, then it's time to talk about business."

business?

There were doubtful looks on the faces of Layafali and the others. Yali seemed to have expected this, but was not surprised at all.

Layafali stood up consciously and was about to leave.

After all, strictly speaking, Duke Brinis's guests this time are Shi Liuli and the others, not himself and others. It would be rude to stay any longer.

But Duke Brinis was the first to say:

"Master Brave, if there is nothing else, I hope you will also listen. What we are going to say has something to do with you and a few companions around you."

Hearing this, Layafali raised her eyebrows and sat down again without saying anything.

Let's listen to what the other person has to say.

"First of all, I believe you all know that monsters have been raging recently. Many of the empire's pillars have died tragically at the hands of monsters, and some areas have even fallen into chaos. I deeply regret and indignate about this, and vow to fight the monsters to the death! "

Duke Brinis said indignantly, as if he meant it.

Jiewen sneered in her heart - return a pillar of strength?I'm afraid he's not the black sheep!

Of course, she was just thinking about it in her mind and was not stupid enough to say it out loud.

Although Shi Liuli and the others didn't know very well, they were not stupid enough to believe the Duke's nonsense.

"But unfortunately, the monster is so powerful that I found that I have no ability to fight it, or even the ability to resist! And at this moment, the brave men came to help me - here, I want to solemnly thank you all!"

After saying that, Duke Brinis bowed his head to Rayafali and others to show his gratitude.

Naturally, Layafari would not just accept it, and waved her hand:

"The Duke does not need to be so polite. I am just fulfilling my duty as a brave man."

--Is it really?

Suddenly, such a voice appeared in her heart, which stunned Layafali.

It's coming, it's finally coming

--Is it really?

Ahh...

Layafari felt beads of sweat running down her face and dripping to the ground, just like her own consciousness, gradually moving away from her brain.

——Am I really... fulfilling my duty as a hero?

——Non, isn’t it just for your own selfish desires...?

——He even doesn’t hesitate to stand on the opposite side of the people for this! ?

--this is me?This is...a brave man?
