Soul of Burning Steel

　　 The sky faded, the stars and moon did not go, and while the clouds were rolling, it started to snow again.

The sky, which was torn apart by the star arc, was once again covered with clouds under the agitation of the wind, and the faint snowflakes gradually fell. At first, almost no one noticed it, but in the back, it became like catkins and dandelions. The velvet snow has grown into a plume of snow like goose feathers.

　　 Moldova is closer to the north than Moldavia, and half of the year is covered in snow and ice.

In this snow, the resting knights on the city wall are waiting for the notice from the orderly who arranged for them to live. Wearing armor and taking off their helmets, they placed their weapons beside the horses, breathing quietly, occasionally gently. The conversation came from the crowd.

　　 "Hey, the shadow that suddenly appeared just now should be the adult's maid maid?"

　　 Near the spiral staircase, a young knight with good-looking eyes saw his lord and the blond golden swordsman walking quickly towards the central tower on the side, and the corner of his eye caught a silver shadow.

He immediately turned his head to the companion next to him and wondered: "I wanted to ask before, why did the lord take his maid, obviously he has been on the way, and there is no time to rest... and the young lady is halfway through. People are gone, and I don’t know where they are going. Why are they suddenly appearing now?"

　　 "Don't worry about so many things."

　　 There is a certain old knight who seems to be very experienced, and he shook his head and said, "I don't need to explain to you what the lord does...In other words, the question you asked is meaningless at all, and do you know the profession of Shadow Guardian?"

"what is that?"

　　 "You can understand by listening to the name."

The young knight is full of curiosity, and the old knight is also willing to answer: "Generally speaking, in order to ensure their own safety, whether they are going out or fighting, they usually bring a few guards and elite soldiers, even if our lord is so powerful. , Occasionally there will be critical moments... but ordinary guards can't always be by your side, so the profession of shadow guards just appeared."

He explained patiently: "The shadow guards have an ability called shadow hiding. They can lurch in someone's shadow and follow the targets they need to guard at any time-of course, they can also be used to assassinate, but compared to similar shadows Assassins, their power is more defensive."

"In the rumors, I heard that Mr. Fan, the steward of the old count, is a shadow guard. If this young maid is not surprising, it should be Mr. Fan's descendant or apprentice. When she disappears, she should have sneaked into the adult. Is in the shadow of him."

　　 "Maybe..."

　　 "You guys are really long-winded, what is there to talk about about this kind of thing."

Another knight also joined the topic, and this guy casually said, "It doesn't matter what kind of job she is, what disappears or disappears, anyway, Lord Lord hasn't spoken, we don't need to worry about this matter-the knight should not think about **** the enemy ?"

"Right."

"indeed so."

　　 was silent for a while, and then nodded in agreement. The knights who were talking to suddenly gave up thinking about such meaningless things. They shrugged and said, "It has nothing to do with us anyway, just manage your own battle."

　　Miss Shenji would naturally not know that she has become an inexplicable shadow guard in the eyes of others-God knows how they guessed-but this is not a big deal.

　　 With the sound of rapid footsteps, the three have arrived at the central tower.

Snow fell slowly in the sky. In the cold wind, two flags representing the Scarlet family's hexagram with red background and gold lines were erected at the entrance, and the hunting sound was blown, because all the fighting power was gathered on the city wall. Therefore, there is no knight guard at the gate of the tower, only a few hurried maids come in and out.

And a beautiful maid with short silver hair and sapphire eyes stood expressionlessly at the door. She saw Brandon walking quickly with Joshua and Hotaru from a distance, and she greeted her naturally. Enter, whispering to Brandon: "Sir, Madam is in the bedroom now, not in good condition... You go and have a look first."

　　 "Okay, I'll go right away!"

　　 The blonde swordsman’s eyes were full of worry, but just before he was about to leave, he turned his head back to the soldier and his group with a trace of apology and said, "I'm sorry, I'm now..."

　　 "No need to say more."

　　 Stretched out a hand, Joshua shook his head, stopped the other's explanation, and said briefly: "Go."

　　 With a sigh of relief, Brandon said to the silver-haired and blue-eyed maid: "Miss Night, please take two distinguished guests to the reception room. I'll be there later."

"Yes it is."

　　 Hearing that the calm-looking maid had agreed, the blond swordsman turned around and left immediately and walked toward the depths of the tower, walking in a hurry and anxiously.

　　"..."

　　 is really a good man who loves his wife.

It was too late to continue feeling, the blue-eyed and silver-haired lady maid named Ye was already standing in front of Joshua and Ying, she lowered her head, bowed a little, and then continued to use her previous voice without a trace of emotion. Said: "Please follow me, two of you, the reception room is not far away, you will be there soon...you can wait for the arrival of your wife and husband."

　　 "Thank you very much."

　　 didn't say much, the black-haired warrior followed the maid in the tower. After turning two corridors, a spacious room with luxurious decoration and comfort appeared in front of him.

The beige plush carpet covers the ground, and the warm breath comes from the burning fireplace. There are exquisite portraits hung on the walls on all sides. Next to it are a few comfortable chairs that look very comfortable. Under the chandelier made of crystal and pyroxene, a small potted plant that looks emerald green is placed in the center of the big table in the center, and you can see a little turquoise pattern undulating on the surface of the potted plant, with varying brightness and darkness, impressively It is a kind of magic plant.

　　 "If you have any requirements, you can tell the maids outside."

Standing at the entrance of the reception room, Ye did not go in. Her eyes narrowed slightly, as if her mind was not here. However, the maid still said in a respectful tone: "They will try their best to satisfy the two. The request of a distinguished guest."

"Too polite."

After thinking for a while, Qiao Xiuya was not really polite. He looked down at his half naked body under the attack of the Black Dragon’s Chaos Dragon Breath, and then said directly: "Then please bring me here. A fitted suit."

　　 Ye did not answer, but just nodded slightly, then she turned to the maid beside her and said a few words, then turned around and walked towards the spiral staircase leading to the upper level of the tower.

　　 With the strength of the warrior's ears, it is natural to hear that the steps of this maid, who looked very calm and quiet before, have been a little hurried, or even a little hurried, as if she was very anxious.

　　 "They are very loyal."

Sitting on the seat, Joshua said casually, and then the warrior turned his head to look at Hotaru who hadn't spoken since the beginning. He also smiled and stretched out his hand to touch his head and praised: Great performance today. Many monsters have hard bones that cannot be penetrated by a spear, but they are torn at will like straw paper under your blade... Don't stand stupidly and sit down."

　　Speaking of this, the soldier seemed to remember the scene of the fierce battle, and his heart swelled, and he couldn't help but start to remember it again.

Hearing the host’s compliment, Hotaru was naturally very happy. The silver-haired miraculous girl turned her head to her host. She was expecting to see the other’s smile, but she could only find that the black-haired soldier was looking up at the crystal chandelier. On the ceiling of his reception room, his eyes were blurred, as if he was recalling something that he found very interesting.
