"The residents of the Sky Tribe have a higher retention rate. Except for the orphans, widows and disabled people who are really unfit to live on such a border, they all have stayed."

"That's it, come with me to see it later." After thinking about it, I nodded.

After all, with the Madea Tribe...well, okay, okay, after all, after getting along with each other for that period of time, I have a pretty good relationship with many residents of the Sky Tribe. Among them, I especially miss the adventurous and cute one named Buco.

Little loli.

"Yes!" Amrudina responded solemnly.

After taking a look at the magic sand table, I asked Amrudina about the war situation in more detail. Until noon, the three of them had a simple lunch together. After a short rest, they started to visit Lalula Town.

Inspection trip.

As the commander-in-chief of the border battlefield and the commander of Lalula Town, Amrudina is highly regarded here. She has only been walking for ten minutes, and many residents have greeted her.

This is quite embarrassing for Amrudina. It would be too rude not to respond. To respond, it is inevitable to stop. The most important thing is that His Highness is by her side. How can everyone turn a blind eye?

His Highness is obviously so gentle and considerate, so majestic and powerful, so kind and brave. He has sacrificed so much to save everyone. He is the best, kindest and greatest man I have ever seen. As expected, everyone only pays attention to appearance.

?

"Amrudina, it seems that you are loved by everyone. Looking at the hot eyes of those male elves, you must have been shown a lot of love."

Seeing Amrudina's dilemma, I can generally understand her current mood. As a subordinate, she is welcomed and loved by everyone, but her superior is left aside. With her character, she must be secretly worried.

Well, so I made a little joke.

"Where, where, where...where is it? Your Highness, please don't get me wrong, absolutely not!"

The effect was achieved. Amrudina immediately forgot her embarrassment, but for some reason, her aura became terrifying. She clenched her fists, as if she wanted to convince me. She took a step closer and said with a serious and solemn expression as if she wanted to cry.

With an incomparable expression, he strongly denied it.

"Is...is that so? What a pity. Amrudina is obviously so good, but is it because she is usually too serious that the people who admire you dare not speak out her true feelings?"

I was startled by Amrudina's strong reaction, and was overwhelmed by her momentum. I subconsciously took a step back and smiled bitterly.

"Does His Highness the Prince really believe it?" Amrudina was unmoved and still nervously confirmed the topic just now.

"I believe you won't lie to me, right?"

"That... that, of course." Amrudina breathed a sigh of relief and was a little happy. She seemed to have digested my second sentence and was slightly shy.

"Compared with His Highness the Prince, my subordinates are far from mature enough. How could there be... any admirers? Isn't His Highness the Prince a better...better object of admiration than my subordinates?"

"Really? Is it possible?"

I touched my nose in embarrassment, but Amrudina defeated an entire army. When did she become so eloquent? How could it be possible for an inconspicuous mortal like me?

"Of course! Absolutely! Absolutely possible!" Amrudina clenched her fists again, as if she was afraid that I wouldn't believe it, and looked at me, revealing a strong and firm will, so strong and firm that even I had a moment of emotion.

feel good about oneself.

Could it be... I'm actually quite popular, a playboy-type heartthrob?

This setting didn't exist from the beginning, really.

When I woke up, I chuckled to myself, and at the same time I also understood that Amrudina was not a clever counterattack just now, she was just saying what she thought was right in her heart.

This ridiculously wrong idea stems from her respect and admiration for me. Although I am very happy, I also feel that Alexander, what would happen if one day she discovers that I am just an ordinary person who cannot be more ordinary.

Disappointment?

After all, I am not a person like Artoria who has all-around excellent talents and can respond to everyone's expectations.

Sighing, I smiled and ordered, "Don't take care of me and Caroline, respond to everyone's love properly, and don't let them down."

"Yes...yes." At this time, Amrudina was wailing in her heart. What had happened to her just now? She had done something very rude in front of His Highness and spoke to His Highness in such a strong tone.

I am really... really useless. Why do I keep making mistakes in front of His Highness, whom I respect and admire the most, who least want to let him see my mistakes, and who most hope to show my excellence in his eyes?

?If this continues, His Highness's impression of him will definitely become worse and worse.

Thinking of this, Amrudina became even more depressed. She just felt that there was no point in even living. But no, how could she give up so easily? She must, must perform well, let His Highness see her excellent side, and let His Highness recognize her.

myself, and...

If I could... get a little praise, a little reward from His Highness, a little favor from His Highness, such as a pat on the head or something...

Ahhhhhh————!!! Amrudina, what are you thinking, you big fool, big fool!!

Kaluge and I looked at each other, and I didn't know why this knight, who was usually serious, upright, strict, unsmiling, and rigid in character, would be depressed and blushing all of a sudden.

Forget it, this may be someone else's secret. Peeping it rashly is not good, not good.

After finally wandering around the town of Lalula, I finally came to Madea...well, it's the territory of the Sky Tribe.

It was originally a beautiful park that the people of Lalula Town were proud of and attracted many bards to visit. Because of my reckless behavior at that time, a large pit had to be dug to accommodate the entire being carried.

The city in the sky rises.

Now, the high platform displayed in front of me still retains the strong visual impact caused by the forced landing. It is difficult for me to imagine how fast I was at that time to make such a bold decision.

In this way, the Sky City forcibly resided in the town of Lalula, and in the battle with the black dragon Elias, the town of Lalula was completely destroyed, except for the two sides that were cut off.

Except for the small pieces, it was miraculously preserved completely.

Because of this, both the residents of Lalula Town and the villagers of Madeya Settlement hope to preserve this miracle, so they came up with the name Sky Tribe, which is like a shameful play for them.

Now, a few months later, this platform with a height difference of five or six meters has undergone some new changes. The exposed mud and stone walls are decorated with greenery. Several stairs connect the ground and the sky tribe.

, no longer have to use ropes to go up and down like before.

Amrudina and I climbed a flight of stairs and entered the territory of the Sky Tribe.

For a moment, Amrudina's eyes flickered with heat again, and the smile on my face that reminded me of revisiting my old place became stiff and petrified.

Very conspicuously, a tall sculpture was erected in the center of this high platform.

A suspended statue about ten meters high.

Why bother to levitate the statue?

Because it is in an inverted state, just like a hanging man in an unscientific electromagnetic gun.

What scares me the most is that this strange statue looks very much like the Demon Moon Wolf Witch!

Illusion, this must be my illusion.

I took a deep breath, pressed my forehead hard, and opened my eyes again.

The suspended statue hanging upside down still appeared vividly in his eyes.

"..."

Only now do I understand what real hanging on the floor is, what real shameful play, Sky Tribe, etc. are, compared with the scene in front of me, they are nothing.

He turned back indifferently and looked at Amrudina. Her eyes were full of adoration, but there seemed to be a little bit of pride.

The most sensible thing tells me that she is suspicious.

"Amrudina, this is..."

"This is a statue made by the unanimous consent of the villagers of the Sky Tribe for your merciful and heroic efforts to save the tribe at all costs." Amrudina immediately replied.

"I know this, it's just a matter of erecting a statue..." He covered his forehead hard to hide the hot tears rolling out of his eyes.

The old man Somako, the village chief of the Madeya tribe, had indeed suggested to me that he should erect a statue for me, but I cleverly brought the topic away. Unexpectedly, he actually advocated doing so without permission, and let me

I was surprised.

That's it. If you just build an ordinary statue for me, then forget it. After all, I can tolerate the one in front of the paper factory.

But, why, why...

"Why... is the statue suspended upside down?" I asked word by word, holding back the veins on my forehead.

Amrudina, who didn't feel the anger in my heart at all, was still intoxicated in the memories, and replied without thinking: "The head of Somako Village asked everyone's opinions when he was building the statue.

, the subordinate who had experienced that miracle and participated in the battle with His Highness, as his main solicitation target, was asked about the greatest moment that His Highness had witnessed in that battle. The subordinate thought for a long time and felt that

At that time, His Highness was in the most shocking and greatest scene that I have ever seen in my life. After everyone discussed and discussed it, among several plans, we finally chose this one."

"That's it, that's it..." He murmured, and a line of hot tears finally couldn't help but roll down from his eyes.

I thought that a few years later, when people visiting the Sky Tribe climbed here and saw the statue, their first words would probably be: "Look, that funny statue, who is the Hanged Man? What did he do?

"Wrong, I want to be hung upside down? I also need to build a statue to warn future generations." This question makes me want to throw myself into the twin seabed and go play chess with Elijah's father, the Mermaid King.

Well, I now have three statues, and I can compete with the three barbarian foodies on the top of Mount Arreat.

My soul smiled palely, comforting myself in this way. Amrudina and Kaluge seemed to appreciate the creativity and shape of this statue, and they kept discussing around the statue.

Could it be that the generation gap between myself and the elves’ aesthetics is really that big?

"Your Highness, His Royal Highness the Prince!"

This situation is different from that in Lalula Town where almost no one recognizes me. The Sky Tribe is the original Madeya settlement. Lena and I have stayed here for a long time, and we saved the tribe.
