Tulip secretly thought something bad in her heart, but she pinched her chin, pretending to ponder for a long time, and said with some confusion:
"It seems that I heard Nuo Xia mention it before, saying that she was her immediate boss over at the West Sea. I don't know the rest. Why did she suddenly mention her?"
"I just learned this name today."
Bellmere, who was usually delicate and domineering, was gone. She was half leaning on Tulip's arms, feeling aggrieved like a wounded kitten:
"After applying for military registration, I saw a female major general in the photo on the table. The female major general was so beautiful. I couldn't help but be fascinated by it. I stood there and stared at it for a long time..."
"Then what?"
Tulip's expression turned slightly strange. Why did this girl react the same way as when she saw the Gion photo for the first time?
That girl... is indeed extremely beautiful. With that white cloak of justice uniform, she looks so heroic. She is perfect for both men and women.
Even she, a mother who firmly prefers Bellemere, couldn't help but feel good about her after seeing the photos before, and she even felt lucky and happy like "such a good girl is also my daughter-in-law."
"Then I couldn't help but ask the major who handled the transfer of military status. She was quite surprised and said that you don't even know Major General Gion. She talked to me for a long time and said that she was also a fan of hers. It was a pity that it was so early.
The famous flower already has an owner..."
Bellemere lowered his head, "I couldn't help but be curious and asked who the other party was. The major's aunt told me that it was, that was..."
"Nosha?"
Tulip was speechless, secretly scolding the female major for talking too much, but there was a look of disbelief on her face.
"Um……"
Bellmeier bit his lip and looked sad, "It is said that the two of them have been together the year before last. Nuo Xia also confessed to her in front of thousands of people at the investiture ceremony. It is said in this department that they are
It’s so beautiful…”
"The major also showed me the group photo taken at that time. Aunt Tulip, the two of them really match each other..."
"This brat!"
Tulip was furious and immediately took the phone bug off the coffee table, "I have grown up with you, my childhood sweetheart, and we are already engaged, yet you are still flirting with women outside!"
"What a bastard!"
The dial flickered, and the sleepy-eyed phone bug shrank his neck in fright.
"Don't worry, Bellemere, I'm calling him to come back and give you an explanation!"
"..."
Bellemeier had no interface. She hugged her knees and curled up in a corner of the sofa. She lowered her head and said nothing. Her eyes were dim and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Tulip, who noticed this scene, put the microphone to her mouth aggressively and sighed in her heart, feeling a little worried.

Buzz!
In the open space of the huge training ground, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind, which could be heard continuously.
They were streaks of sword energy, whizzing out from the waving swords. Each sword energy contained the terrifying sword intent of the wind.
And after slashing out, each sword burst out with a dazzling brilliance like the moonlight rising from the sea on a full moon night.
The training ground, which was still in the dark, was instantly illuminated as bright as day!
boom!
The moment the sword energy swept across, the surrounding barbed wire was instantly crushed into powder, and the surrounding trees also collapsed one after another.
The ground in the training ground was cut with countless criss-crossing deep ravines, some of which were even tens of meters deep, which was shocking to look at.
"The power has improved again."
Nuo Xia floated down from the air, stepped on the ground, and looked at the training ground that turned into a white field, showing a look of relief.
This kind of sword skill has both the power of the wind and the blinding dazzling light in every sword strike.
It was something he gained through enlightenment and exploration recently when he was immersed in the practice of swordsmanship.
Dazzling, high-profile and extremely gorgeous.
At the same time, the destructive power is also quite powerful, and it can bring out the full extent of his swordsmanship. In a sense, it can be called "Tamakiri" and "Eclipse", an advanced version of the combination of these two swordsmanships.
Nuo Xia named it "Double Sword Flower Slash·Moonlight Flare".
Although I have just mastered it now, it still needs a lot of time to practice and consolidate, and I am currently unable to exert the full power of this move.
But it's a satisfying start after all.
Don't completely rely on the system's skill rewards, don't follow the old path that has been taken by predecessors, and create your own unique sword skills.
For Nuo Xia, if he wants to go deeper and further in the way of swordsmanship, this is the only way to go.
He believed that he was waiting to fully understand Elder Suma's kendo notes in the future;
Then combine it with your own understanding of the double-sword style kendo, and through daily hard practice and practice in life-and-death fights with powerful enemies.
Day after day, it goes on like this.
He will definitely be able to understand more sword skills, and even gradually create his own style, allowing his sword skills to truly reach the top level in the world.
"It's already dawn."
Sheathing the sword, Nuo Xia glanced at the white fish belly rising in the east, his eyes flashed slightly, and he decided to end his practice tonight.
"It's almost time. It's time to pick up Shia."
————————
Marineland, port.
The morning light is dim, and the sea breeze of early spring blows on my face, bringing with it a salty and humid warmth.
The passenger ship from the Paja Kingdom anchored outside the pier under the guidance of the broadcast.
As for the internal harbor, except for warships and other casual ships, no other ships can enter. This is a rule of the Navy Headquarters, and even the royal vehicles of the participating countries are no exception.
"Your Highness the Princess, you have arrived at Malinfando."
The guard knocked on the cabin door and waited respectfully outside.
"Well, I understand."
A faint voice came from inside.
After a while, the cabin door opened, and a blue-haired girl in an elegant white dress came to the bow of the deck, accompanied by a group of palace maids.
She had no expression on her face, looking indifferently at the towering fortress building in the distance. Her curvy body, although bathed in the warm morning light, still exuded a cool and noble air that no strangers should enter.
A white dove landed on her shoulder, staring motionlessly into the distance, making this scene look more like it had stepped out of an oil painting.
His Highness’s aura is really getting stronger and stronger...
Behind Xia, the housekeeper stood with her hands tied, looking sideways at this scene, feeling slightly emotional in her heart.
She grew up with Shia since she was a child, and witnessed with her own eyes how this withdrawn girl, who lost her mother at a young age and had a withdrawn temperament, matured step by step.
Especially last year, when the old king was seriously ill, a group of incompetent children were eyeing the throne, scheming with each other, and even doing some dirty things secretly.
At that time, Shia was living deep in the palace, guarding her old and seriously ill father.
It seems that he doesn't care about foreign affairs, but he is well aware of these undercurrents and conspiracies and has already taken precautions.
With her thunderous methods, various conspiracies were quickly put down, and the threat of chaos in the kingdom was eliminated.
He even took action many times himself, using his excellent physical skills to easily kill several assassins who sneaked into the palace late at night.
All the guards were stunned and even wondered if they were going to lose their jobs, but they were completely impressed by Her Highness the Princess.
but.
The housekeeper knows better than anyone else that even though she is much more mature and stable than a few years ago, Shia still has no interest in the throne. From the beginning to the end, the only thing she cares about is that man.
And my only wish is to stay with that man forever.
If not...
This time, he would not wait for the old king to recover his health before traveling all the way back to Malinvando.
suddenly.
The housekeeper noticed that the blue-haired girl's eyelashes trembled, and her originally unwavering gaze suddenly changed with joy, just like a black and white sketch suddenly added color and became energetic.
The white dove that had been standing on her shoulder also lit up, and after squealing excitedly, it suddenly spread its wings and flew out.
"Is that man here..."
Only this possibility could make the iceberg-like Princess so moved. The housekeeper followed the direction in which the white dove flew and looked far into the distance.
As expected.
On the shore of the pier in the southeast direction, at some point, a figure wearing a white cloak of justice appeared, waving towards this side with a smile...
——————
On the boulevard.
Under the looks of surprise or resentment from people passing by along the way, Nuo Xia and Shia held hands and walked slowly along the roadside.
The familiar girl's fragrance fills the nostrils, making people feel like they are on the quiet lakeside deep in the forest in the early morning. Just being so close to it makes people feel inexplicably at ease.
They haven’t seen each other for more than half a year, so naturally the two of them have lots of topics to talk about.
From the time when I was forcibly separated by Big Mom, my experience of revenge on Cake Island, to the thrilling and protracted battle with the Golden Lion some time ago...
Most of the time, Noxia was talking, and Shia listened quietly with a slight smile.
The morning light fell on her shoulders, dyeing the girl's already delicate and silky blue hair until it was translucent, as if plated with a soft golden edge.
She was like a deer who had been lost in the forest all night and finally returned to the familiar lakeside cabin when the sky was dim. She squinted her eyes slightly and snuggled up, with an expression of enjoyment on her face.
"You've grown a lot too, Shia."
Nuo Xia also heard about the series of turbulent royal turmoil in the Paja Kingdom from Shia's mouth, and couldn't help but smile and rub the girl's head:
"It's a pity that I wasn't with you during that time. It was really hard on you, but speaking of it, why, do you really not want to return to your country to inherit the throne?"
"I don't want it."
Her Royal Highness the Princess, who is as unapproachable as an iceberg in the eyes of outsiders, at this moment looks like a kitten that has just turned one month old. "Now that my father is in good health, the overall situation of the country will be left to him. I just want to stay."
I will accompany you at the headquarters, just like I did when I was in the G2 branch."
g2 branch...
Nuo Xia was in a daze for a moment. Almost two years had passed in those trainee days, and his impression was not very deep. However, for Shia, only those three months were hers alone.
I'm afraid that was the happiest and most precious time in her life so far, right?
pity.
Now, nothing can go back...
"It doesn't matter."
Siya seemed to feel his emotional fluctuations, gently squeezed his palm, and said with a gentle smile, "I am very satisfied as it is now..."
Nuo Xia didn't respond. He smiled and squeezed her little hand. Looking at the girl nestled in his arms, he felt a little guilty.
It's a bit subtle to say that his previous thoughts were all on how to reconcile the conflict between Bellemere and Little Rabbit, and he never considered Shia's side.
On the one hand, it’s because Shia has been the only insider among the three women from beginning to end;
On the other hand, he is also a bit "arrogant and proud".
——Knowing that Shia loves him far more than she loves herself, no matter how violent the outbreak in the Shura field is, she will not have any unnecessary demands. She is so humble that just being able to stay by her side is enough...
Brubru~
Suddenly, there was a slight tremor in his arms. Nuo Xia frowned slightly and took out the phone. Before he could speak, Tulip's scolding came from the other end.
He was confused at first, but soon he understood what happened at home in a few words.
"What are you doing outside? Come back quickly and explain the matter clearly!"
These were the last words my mother said before hanging up the phone, angrily, as if she was complaining about Bellemere, but Nuo Xia heard a hint of reminder in it.
——The matter has been exposed in advance! Brat, you should be mentally prepared and rehearse the speech you prepared before on the road!
I have a headache...
Nuo Xia put away the phone, rubbed her temples, and smiled bitterly.
In fact, he had already expected it. After all, too many people in the department knew about his relationship with Taotu.
To be honest, it has been almost half a month now, and Bellemere finally found out accidentally from external channels, which was already a surprise to him.
"Bellemere...have you come to the headquarters yet?"
Sia had been listening to the phone quietly, and now she had a rough guess. She tilted her head slightly and asked softly.
"Yes, I came here with my parents." Nuo Xia shrugged, "Anyway, I have to go home first, why don't you go to the elite camp? You haven't seen Teacher Zefa for a long time, right?
You can go over and visit him. I will go there in the afternoon..."
"don't want."
The blue-haired girl shook her head slightly and squeezed his hand tightly, "I want to go with you."
"It's time, aren't you going to cause trouble?" Nuo Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Don't worry, I will let you really meet them in the future, but today is not the time..."
"I just want to see what your childhood sweetheart is like..."
Shia pursed her lips, a little unhappy, but quickly rolled her eyes, as if she had an idea, and showed a sly smile, "Ah, I have it..."
Just as the two of them turned around the street, they came to the middle of a remote and uninhabited forest. Sia's figure suddenly changed, taller and longer, and under Nuo Xia's dumbfounded gaze, it turned into another familiar appearance.
.
A tall man wearing a navy uniform holding a cigar.
"Looking like this now, if I go home with you, I won't cause any trouble, right?"
