On the second day after the Bell Hein resolved the final crisis and returned to the port of Lugoin, in the seaside wooden house where "Fox-Headed Fox" lived in the harbor area of Lugoin, a man in a wheelchair
The young man was talking to his maid.
"Kurast has fallen, and Lu Gaoyin is likely to be the next target... Their plan is likely to be launched soon."
The young man wearing a fox-head mask was sitting upright in a wheelchair, looking at the sea view outside the window in front of him and saying this.
There was no expression on his face under the mask, and the blond hair on his forehead that was exposed outside the mask was fluttering in the sea breeze.
"Then what does it matter? The young master guessed a long time ago that those people who took the initiative to help us definitely had bad intentions."
The maid Jenna knelt down next to him and gently pressed her face against one of his hands on his knee.
"Hey... Jenna, are you afraid?"
The young man smiled bitterly. He knew that if that group of people was planning to launch a plan, then he, an ordinary person who was "one of the three leaders of the Protection Front", would definitely be the first target they wanted to eradicate.
Because as long as he is around, their plan will never succeed smoothly.
"I'm not afraid... The young master's ability to let me be with you was already the greatest reward to Jenna. Jenna has nothing more to ask for...
Besides, when we were sent by the master to assist the young master, didn’t we already have this ending in mind?”
Jenna raised her face, her soft and beautiful face full of tenderness.
"...Hahaha! That's right! I, Fox, can be with you in this life, even if it's not for a long time, but my time in this world has been worthwhile!
Let’s go out! That guy should have arrived, let’s perform this last act for the young master!”
Fox was silent for a moment, and then suddenly burst into laughter. The laughter was full of freedom and magnanimity.
"Yes, young master, let me open the door for you."
Jenna stood up, with a bright smile on her face, walked to the door of the room and opened it gently.
Then, she pushed Fox through the corridor and into the room where he often read and sat on the board.
Not long after they entered the room, a guy in a black cloak walked in from outside.
"Sir, you are looking for me."
"Well, please report, how much of our 'goods' have been stored?"
Fox gave a faint hum and then asked.
"Our 'goods' are already in reserve and are just waiting for your order. We can start taking action at any time."
A hoarse voice came from under the black cloak.
"Very good, pass on my order to immediately terminate all action plans, abolish all intended targets, and prepare to destroy those 'goods'!"
Fox nodded, suddenly changed his voice, and spoke in a majestic voice.
"It's...what?! Why?!" Black Cloak nodded habitually, but suddenly realized that the order was wrong, and suddenly raised his head in shock, forgetting even the habit of hiding his voice and face.
It's not his fault, after all, they had been preparing for that "plan" for decades, and they didn't know how much effort they put in and how much they sacrificed for it.
Now, at the very moment when it is about to be completed, Sir, you actually say that you want to abandon the plan?!
This made him feel completely unacceptable.
"Stupid! Haven't you heard the news yet? Kurast has fallen!" Fox's voice was sharp, and he directed a stern reprimand at the black cloak.
"This...but...what does that have to do with us?" Black Cloak was stunned for a moment, and after he came to his senses, he whispered in a slightly aggrieved tone.
"Kuraste and our Lu Gaoyin are only separated by a not-so-wide blue sea! It used to be a heavily fortified fortress port, and even that place fell. Do you think Lu Gaoyin can still sleep peacefully?
?
The position we want is meaningful only if Lu Gaoyin exists. If Lu Gaoyin is destroyed, then what is the use of sitting on that chair?!"
Fox shook his head and scolded loudly again.
"I...I understand...I'll go...uh!"
The black cloak nodded in a panic. Just as he was about to turn around and exit the room to convey Fox's order, his body suddenly trembled and his face instantly turned gray.
On his chest, a huge black bird's claw with a metallic luster slowly stretched out, grasping a still beating heart. Then, before anyone in the room could react, the bird's claw struck fiercely.
With one grasp, the heart was turned into blood foam all over the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a man in a cloak covered with colorful feathers walked out from behind the body in a black cloak that slowly fell to the ground. He ignored the blood on the ground and the fleshy foam on his right hand that had turned back into a human hand.
He clapped his hands and walked to Fox.
The maid Jenna immediately assumed a fighting stance, but did not take out any weapons. Instead, she pulled out two one-handed long swords made entirely of flames from the air beside her hands.
"Hey! Not bad! A mutated version of flame enhancement? You are a mage, and you have mutated this kind of skill... It must be very troublesome, right?"
Caiyu Cloak smiled jokingly, completely ignoring the fighting spirit of Jenna.
"Whether it bothers me or not, you'll know soon!"
The maid, however, was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and rushed forward with two flaming swords in hand.
At the same time, the maid outfit she wore instantly transformed into a set of professional equipment, in which gold and blue were mixed, and the necklace hanging around her neck revealed a dark golden brilliance.
"Drink!" Jenna's fighting appearance didn't look like a mage at all, but more like a slender barbarian.
She kept wielding the flaming sword and attacked Caiyu's cloak. The attack was so fierce that it even slowly raised the temperature around her.
However, her opponent is not an easy character to deal with.
I saw this guy stretching out two hands that turned into black bird claws from his cloak, and easily blocked all the maid's attacks.
The two flaming swords of the maid Jenna, which could cut through steel instantly, could not do anything to this man's flesh claws.
"Iroha Mist! What do you mean!" Fox, who was forced to retreat to the corner of the room by the remnants of the fight between the two, shouted with a gloomy face.
Yes, this guy wearing an Iroha cloak is "Iroha Mist", one of the three leaders of the People's Defense Front.
"Don't act stupid! I know you have seen through our plan! And you have been planning to prevent us from implementing that plan from the beginning!
Am I right?! Mr. Albert Ezekiel?!"
Mist said in a slightly mocking voice while easily coping with Jenna's attack.
Hearing this name, the young man in the wheelchair shrank his pupils. He was silent for a moment, and then suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha! The City of God's Punishment is really powerful! You even found out this identity! Yes, I am the second son of the Ezekiel family, the rumored Albert Ezekiel who has died in infancy
you!"
"Ha! Just admit it! Your Ezekiel family is really playing a big game of chess! You pretended to have died as soon as your second son was born, but in fact he was secretly training him to help your family seize power in the dark.
Was it planned?!"
Mist waved his hand lightly, easily knocking back Jenna's combo attack, and then continued in a condescending tone.
"It's a pity that you can't understand that this world is always dominated by the strong!
Even if ordinary people are smart, in the end they will only serve as a wedding dress for the strong!
Just like you now! Just like your family!"
"..." The young man stared at Mist silently without saying a word, but he kept looking at the maid Jenna out of the corner of his eye.
The other party is stalling for time, but this is exactly what he wants.
"Go away! You little brat! I've wasted enough time on you!
Now! I want to end this!"
Just as Jenna was about to continue charging forward, she was forced back by a sudden and fierce claw machine from her opponent. Before she could stand on the ground, Mist's body wrapped under Caiyu's cloak suddenly swelled.
A giant crow, covered with purple-black feathers, with long feathers of various colors on its head, and a body of three meters high, soon appeared in front of the two of them.
This strange crow has a pair of claws on its feet and another pair of claws on its chest. At the same time, it carries a pair of huge purple-black wings on its back that are wider than the entire room.
Its head is exactly like a crow's head, but it has four pairs of blood-red eyes in a row. Now these eyes are staring at the master and servant with shocked faces in front of them with greedy light.
"Crow...form?!" Jenna murmured.
"..." The young man in the wheelchair also looked a little pale.
