Life moves forward unchanged, and Boom spends this time consolidating his realm as a wizard, or repeatedly studying the mysterious parchment. Christine seems to be very interested in the "storm bottle", or the goblin
The alchemy formation of the clan. Hastur has replaced Persis. If anyone observes carefully, they will definitely find that there are several butterflies flying around the courtyard every day and never leave.
After breakfast today, Rikka took Perseus out, but the direction the little girl was traveling in was not the market area, but outside the Crystal Castle. Although Perseus felt a little strange, he was not a person to begin with.
I like people who talk, so I follow Rikka and gradually stay away from the crowd.
There are not too many beasts in the Rusty Plains, and Rikka has no intention of messing around with them today. But this will only hurt those unlucky mercenary groups. Wherever the cold light passes, heads fall to the ground one by one.
.However, instead of softening due to the killing, Rikka's expression became colder and gloomier.
At noon, the master and the servant had already penetrated deep into the rusty plains, and the outline of the Crystal Mechanical Castle behind them completely disappeared. Rikka leaned against a huge rock, the stream in front of him roared, and the breeze carried the fragrance of soil and grass into his nostrils.
But at this moment, the little girl didn't eat any more snacks, but silently watched her servant.
Perseus still couldn't understand Rikka's actions today, and after thinking about it, he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong recently. But he kept kneeling on one knee at the moment, for no other reason.
It's just the attitude of a servant, it has nothing to do with right or wrong.
"That big fat bug is becoming more and more useful now. Not only is it powerful, but it is also the only one among us that can play the role of a scout. But you, on the other hand, are becoming more and more disappointing to me. I am so disappointed that I am considering whether you still have the chance to work with me.
I am qualified to walk side by side."
Rikka's voice sounded quietly, but the coldness contained in it made Perseus tremble, as if he had the illusion that his head would separate at any time.
But as Rikka said, the meaning of Perseus' existence is just to protect Rikka, but what Rikka needs the most is this dispensable protection. Compared to "Iron Bastard", Rikka prefers "Mad Dog"
, this is also the meaning of her going out alone with Perseus today.
Although the little girl always looks careless on weekdays, she is not inferior to Boom or Christine at critical moments. And she is originally an ancient beast, even if she has forgotten the past
, but deep down, it is far from what those so-called peak experts can compare to.
In Rikka's eyes, Boom is the only person who can make her risk her own life, followed by Christine. And Hastur is just a useful helper now, but as for Perseus, it has no effect.
Perseus was speechless. He could only try to tighten his nerves, otherwise he would probably be crushed by the pressure of the beasts emanating from Rikka. Perseus wanted to prove the value of his existence, but as Rikka's
As a servant, only if the master takes further steps will he evolve accordingly.
However, a servant cannot ask his master in this way. Perseus only dared to think about this kind of thing in his heart and would never tell Rikka. And the reason why Perseus is still alive today is thanks to Rikka.
Therefore, even if he was killed by Rikka on the spot today, he would have nothing to complain about.
"The gift of liberation! The first dance, the sound of the piano!" Rikka stood up slowly, and his hands transformed into short blades. Then the sound of piercing the air sounded one after another. Although Rikka did not use all his strength, the power was enough to tear a high-level knight into pieces.
Fragments.
Perseus offered no resistance and never took a step back. The black robe was shattered in an instant, and blood could not help but seep out from the gaps in the armor. Perhaps this stubbornness of "not retreating" was his best response, even if it meant
And he will not hesitate to lose his life.
"Second question, if one day I break up with a companion, or even become enemies, what will your choice be?"
"Will you stand by my side, no matter how tragic the outcome is, or will you not help each other, or will you just leave when you can't make a choice?"
Rikka sat back under the giant rock and asked again. Star Eyes looked directly at Perseus, who suddenly knelt down on his knees, not caring that his blood had already dyed the surrounding vegetation red.
"I don't quite understand the meaning of master, but if that day really comes, I will choose to follow in the footsteps of the master. The master is the master."
This was the first sentence Perseus uttered today, but it sounded sonorous and powerful without any hesitation. Because in his eyes, he and Rikka had maintained a master-servant relationship for hundreds of thousands of years, so as long as Rikka spoke
Under the order, even if the opponent is another ancient beast, he will not take a step back.
The sun penetrated the clouds at some point, and the curious ant army began to get closer and closer to the blood. A white herbal pellet drew an arc in the air, and was eventually swallowed by Perseus.
"Do you know why Hastur's black robe is embroidered with gold petals, but you don't?"
"Because Hastur is a relative of Sister Christine, I did this out of respect for Sister Christine, rather than recognizing Hastur's strength."
"In my eyes, neither of you can fight with me, and you don't even have the urge to interest me."
"As my servant, you naturally need to be worthy of your status. Now, the only thing that satisfies me is your loyalty, and the so-called 'loyalty' doesn't interest me at all. I don't need this kind of
You are an accessory who can only talk nonsense. If you are still so useless when you return to the High Court of Cisse in the future, then end it on your own."
The stars in Rikka's eyes slowly faded away, and then he threw a brand new black robe to Perseus. In addition to swallowing the white herbal pellet, Perseus' wound also healed quickly, at least the surface no longer oozed.
Bleeding.
Wow! The large black robe covered the sky and the sun, and the golden petal pattern was particularly dazzling. Perseus looked at Rikka blankly, waiting for the other party to explain to him.
"I'm quite satisfied with your answer today, so from now on, you are at least worthy of this black robe." Rikka said softly, and then took out a bag of snacks in her hand.
Perseus was overjoyed when he heard this, and saw a ball of gray magic power coming out of his body, and then wrapped it inside. A moment later, the brand new armor was repaired, and there was a golden petal pattern in the center of the chest. "Uh... can we not make it so tacky? Even if you like it, you don't have to brand it on your chest?" Rikka rolled her eyes when she saw this, but she didn't stop Perseus' behavior.<
/p>
"I like this pattern, I like it very much." Perseus scratched his bald head and replied angrily.
The setting sun elongated the figure of the master and the servant. More than half an hour later, Rikka went into the kitchen and started preparing dinner. But Perseus, who had always been taciturn, rarely walked around in front of everyone today, showing off his black robe.
The petals have golden patterns on them.
Boom had no objection to this, and Christine couldn't help but smile and nod. As for Hastur, he was still sitting in the yard, monitoring the small yard with the help of the butterflies that flew out of the left-eye insect nest.
