Joy, sadness, helplessness and despair, when these emotions finally found an outlet, Sally really didn't know how to express them, so she could only express them all with her actions.

No matter what Rody said or decided, Sally just wanted to hug him tightly and never let go.

After two hours of searching like looking for a needle in a haystack, the results came out, and Roddy finally let go of his anxious heart.

Sally was sobbing in her arms. At first she tightened her arms, but then she started to hammer his back with her fists -

"You bastard!"

"…Why are you doing this?"

"Why!?"

She never thought that she would throw herself into Roddy's arms again... Smelling his scent, Sally felt joy after being rescued at first, but then she felt an unspeakable resentment -

Why does fate play tricks on people so much?

You are already with that woman, why are you still trying so hard to save me?

Roddy could feel that she was really hitting hard, and he understood in his heart why she was like this, but he didn't know how to explain it, so he could only say awkwardly: "I'm sorry..."

"What's the use of saying it now!"

Sally buried her head into his chest hard, "You are angry because you are angry, I just apologize, but why do you use this method to deal with me... What do you want me to do? You bastard!"

Roddy was also a little confused - what should he do? Sally was saved, but how should he treat her in the future?

Should we draw a clear line and continue to treat him coldly like before? That is already impossible...

But…

An idea that he had never had before came to his mind, but Rody immediately felt that it was not realistic at all. He took a deep breath, tried to suppress the messy thoughts in his mind, and said aloud: "We... need

Return to Holier as soon as possible, the city is facing the threat of the undead plague."

Sally was not a careless girl. After hearing Roddy's words, she wiped away her tears, and then realized that she was still in a state of "disguise" - she reached out to wipe off the plasticity, and as soon as she stretched out her hand, she discovered

Rody picked up a water bag from the side, unscrewed the stopper and poured the water into her palm.

Sally pursed her lips slightly. The tacit understanding between the two of them not to speak made her feel a little sweet, but then there was still a hint of bitterness... She might never be able to dominate him like this again in the future.

Leave Roddy?

Sally had completely dismissed the idea in her mind.

"That guy touched a lot of mud on me, I must be ugly as hell," she lowered her eyes, not wanting Roddy to know what she was thinking, and tried to talk about the things she encountered along the way in the same relaxed tone as when they were traveling together.

: "That Karl is a spiritual shadow priest. He wanted to control me and gave me a bottle of potion, but it seemed that the potion didn't have much effect, so he never fully controlled my body."

She washed her cheeks, threw away her chestnut wig, reached out to tuck the ends of her short hair behind her ears, looked into the distance, and asked casually: "When I was in the town, I saw you walking in front of me.

But, I never dared to call you..."

"I actually saw it...I saw it from far away."

Roddy could understand Sally's complicated mood at that moment, and her choice to give up asking for help made Roddy feel extremely indebted - how many people would give up such an opportunity?

The two of them were looking away while they were talking. The brief close contact just now didn't seem to be able to completely resolve the awkwardness in the relationship. It's just that Rody didn't have time to talk nonsense now. He quickly searched the corpses left on the battlefield to confirm that there were no enemies.

After they were alive, they dragged these pagans from both sides of the road into the dense forest.

There is no need to elaborate on the hatred between "Viper Cross" and Roddy, but there are too many things to be busy with now, and it is also a necessary means to delay the other party from learning about the "operation failure".

Pulling Sally to jump onto the Duck, Roddy had to reach out to hold her waist as the stupid bird shook its body and took off. This action made Sally's back press against Roddy's chest.

The two people who were originally silent suddenly had their hearts beating slightly faster...

The needle-tailed sand cone flew at a low altitude, and the cold wind blowing in front of her made Sally simply close her eyes, and this made her feel the heat from Roddy's palm on her abdomen. Her breathing was slightly rapid, and after a moment of hesitation, she finally relaxed

Biting her lower lip, she held his hand.

"No matter what you choose, I will never let you go again."

She leaned back slightly and said to Roddy on the side of her face.

Roddy, on the other hand, squinted at the ground that was passing quickly in front of him, silent and not knowing how to answer.

The battle that took place in Holier City finally came to an end with the explosion of "mutated magic crystal fragments".

Wembsk completely disappeared in the light of the fire, and most of the ghouls that followed him were killed. The soldiers suffered equally heavy injuries, but because there were enough reserves, a steady stream of soldiers who came up finally finally

With the help of the two great knights and Akasha, the situation was controlled and the front line was pushed back into the square.

With such a victory, the death of the enemy chief was partly due to the fact that...the Duke of Angmar and the enemy disappeared together in the light of fire.

As the city lord, Angmar did not stand behind the shield, but relied on his old and frail body to die with the enemy. When the soldiers understood what the Duke had done, their combat effectiveness almost exploded instantly.

"For Efta!"

The infantry who originally held shields to resist no longer maintained their nearly collapsed formation. They pulled out their swords one by one and charged into the enemy formation roaring like crazy...

The golden holy light continued to shine. Akasha forcibly drank the second bottle of potion she carried with her. She picked up a short sword and killed the seriously injured crawling ghoul beside her. Then she chanted a prayer and killed the injured ghoul who fell to the ground.

The soldier treated her. When she turned to look into the distance, she saw the ghost knight wearing a "holy shield" carrying five translucent shadows, quickly harvesting the undead in front of him like a scythe.

The victory was determined, Akasha breathed a sigh of relief, and then leaned against the wall while panting.

The last group of resurrected ghouls were forced to the center of the square, and the horn of a full-scale counterattack sounded. Akasha raised her hand and continued to release the "Circle of Purification". However, after taking a few steps, she staggered due to overdraft of mana and almost sat down.

On the ground.

She wiped the sweat from her forehead, reached out to touch the potion bottle, and found that the "intermediate mana potion" had been completely drunk...

The lack of magic power gave Akasha an unspeakable sense of crisis, but at this moment, the shadows across the square rekindled her hope - when she raised her head, she saw, as expected, the hovering

Needle-tailed sand cone, and soon, the duck with wings spread out landed in an open space dozens of meters away.

Akasha stepped forward happily, but as soon as the smile appeared on her face... her figure suddenly stopped in place.

When Roddy jumped off the pintail sand cone, Sally behind him never let go of her hand holding him.

Looking at the scene not far away, Akasha pursed her lips, breathed several times in a row, turned around silently, and retreated into the shadow of the building in a daze.

However, Roddy did not notice the little priest behind him because of the tragic scene in the square. He raised his short bow and joined the battle, and together with Sally assisted the army in mopping up the remaining enemies - and when everything was finally over, the system finally

A notification that the task was completed sounded.

Roddy then glanced around, and then ran towards Akasha in the corner. He looked at the pale little priest, and after confirming that she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "My mana is overdrawn and I need a good rest.

Go get someone to help you back, and try not to move anymore."

"Um."

Akasha looked at him seriously, blinked, and then raised her hand - seeing this, Rody quickly pulled her to stand up. He was about to say something else, but heard Akasha ask softly: "Can you

Can’t…hold me?”

Rody felt strange about this request, thinking that she was a little scared because of the battle, so he gently held Akasha in his arms: "It's okay now... You did a good job, the plague did not spread, this city or even the entire territory

They are all saved."

However, Akasha did not respond. She just raised her gaze and looked at Sally, who was looking over from a distance, for a few seconds.

The expressions of both women were wonderful, but Rody was the only one who didn't know about it.

Even though she had made a decision in her heart, Sally still felt sour when she saw Akasha and Roddy getting tired of each other. She pursed her lips and looked away. After casting two "Purification Rings" in succession, she looked at

Titus stepped forward and asked: "Knight Titus, where is father?"

The soldiers who were clearing the battlefield around him slowed down, and Titus even stopped - his eyes hesitated for a moment, then slowly took off his helmet and knelt down on one knee.

"This is…"

Sally's pupils suddenly locked, her breathing quickened, and she whispered: "It can't be...it shouldn't be like this..."

She looked around blankly, and when she spoke again she was already crying: "Father is in the mansion, right? I'll go back soon... He's waiting for me to go back..."

Sally turned around and wanted to leave, but Titus raised his arm slightly and slowly raised the duke's sword in front of Sally.

"My Lord Duke... he fought until the last moment."

The long sword broke in the explosion, and only half of it was left. The hilt melted and deformed due to the high temperature. Sally looked at the long sword that had always been placed in her father's bedroom, and tears instantly blurred her vision.

Even though she had already made similar preparations in her heart, when faced with the cruel facts, Sally still couldn't accept it.

Tears fell to the ground. Sally wanted to cry loudly, and her body even trembled slightly because she had to hold back the huge grief. However, when she reached out to hold the hilt of the broken sword, she took a deep breath.

He forcibly suppressed these emotions in his heart.

Even though the hilt of the sword melted, the words "Luciferon" engraved on it remained unchanged. As the last member of this family, Sally knew clearly: what she took over was not just a weapon, but something that fell on her shoulders.
