At the foot of the stairs was a rather interesting figure, so much so that Apophis laughed softly.

Because, the identity of this navy is the highest combat power of the naval headquarters - Aries Longinus!

"Why are you here?" Apophis asked with interest.

"Navy headquarters, it seems that someone has discovered the connection between us." Longinus's face was solemn.

"That's something you should be worried about, what are you doing here for me at this time?"

"It's something wrong on your side, and I suspect that there is naval infiltration on your side."

"So, what are you going to do?"

"Take me to a thorough investigation, I have a way to find out the mole."

"What a confidence! Okay then, keep up with me. Apophis said, stepping down from his throne and heading out of the palace.

Seeing Apophis with his back to him, Longinus' eyes flashed, and he followed.

Speechless all the way.

At the moment when I walked to the end of the palace and was about to step out of the gate.

Longinus moved, and the sword light that appeared out of nowhere slammed into Apophis' undefended back.

However, Apophis was faster than him.

The blades collided, and Longinus was knocked out in an instant.

The fluctuations of the battle did not spread to the outside world, and it seemed to be shielded by the fruit's ability.

After a moment of silence, Longinus stood up, "Is there a problem with the content of the conversation?" The tone, movements, and even habits should be flawless. ”

Apophis shook his head slightly, "Not really. ”

"Is that because I'm too impatient and exposed my breath?"

"Not really."

Longinus asked again, "Why is that?" ”

"Luck, to be exact!"

"Luck?"

"Because, I happen to be here!" A voice suddenly appeared, and a third person stepped out of the apse.

Seeing this scene, the expression on the face of "Longinus" was very exciting, and immediately, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "After so many years of preparation, did you lose to luck in the end?" ”

After saying that, the light on the body of "Longinus" flickered, and the tall body began to shrink, and finally turned into a tall woman.

"You don't look surprised, teacher!"

"Don't mess with your heart because of anything, isn't that what I taught you?" Longinus stepped out of the shadows and slowly sat down on the throne, "Guina! ”

Seeing that Apophis did not stop Longinus's movements, Guina's delicate little face showed a look of horror, and then said with a wry smile again, "I really can't be as safe as you say, teacher, but you are hiding too deeply, teacher." ”

"No matter how rich my imagination is, I would never have imagined that Apophis, the most mysterious magic sword among the Five Emperors, would actually be your subordinate!"

Longinus and Apophis remained silent, seemingly acquiescing to this statement.

"Actually, I noticed it very early on."

As if knowing that there was no hope of escape, Guina recalled, "Teacher, do you remember? Back then, in order to change the trajectory of the last slash, you blocked it with your body, and you were seriously injured. It was also at that time that I noticed that the blood coming out of your chest was very similar to the smell of blood left on the ground when I arrived. ”

"At that time, did you wake up and be domineering? What a talent! Apophis, who was standing on the sidelines, exclaimed.

"Compared to that little green-haired guy, you're too sharp!" Longinus also appreciated.

Guina was noncommittal, and continued, "At that time, I was just a vague guess, so I thought about following the teacher and you to continue to explore the truth, but the more time passed, the more I felt that my inference was wrong. ”

"Why do you say that?" Longinus asked with interest.

"Because you are so good to us, or rather, you are so good to everyone, in the hearts of all of us, you are the best person in the world, and even I am not willing to break this beautiful illusion."

"Even now, I don't want to believe that fact. As long as the teacher says that you are deceived and coerced, no matter what the reason or excuse is......" Guina took out a phone bug and bit her lip to look at Longinus, "As long as you say it, teacher, I am willing to believe it, and I can not send it out if I have recorded the voice before." ”

"Tsk, is it a gramophone bug?" Apophis sighed.

"You've come to this point, and you're still willing to believe me?"

"I can realize that your care and love for us, teacher, is definitely not a fraud, in my heart, the teacher and my father have long been equated." Guina looked at Apophis with hatred, "You must have been the one who made the teacher like this!" ”

"Change? Actually, I've never changed. It's just that...... None of you know me for what I am. A sigh came from the throne.

Guina shook her body with a pale face, looked at the phone bug in her hand, and finally put it on the ground.

"Aren't you going to press it?"

"I'm really just a weak person, and even if it's a beautiful fantasy, I don't want to be broken by my own hands. Leave this task to others! Guina pressed the hilt of her sword with both hands.

"Longing, sure enough, is the emotion that is the farthest away from understanding!"

"Teacher, can you answer my last question?"

"Of course."

"I want to know when I showed my flaws."

"When you noticed, I found out." Longinus smiled.

"What?" Guina looked up suddenly and asked in disbelief, "Teacher, you knew my thoughts from the beginning?" ”

"Even now, it's hard for you to hide your thoughts from my eyes, let alone when you were only 11 years old, although you were already trying your best to hide your inner thoughts at that time, but in my opinion, it was quite cute!"

"It can't be!" Guina shouted, "If that's the case, why are you taking me in?" Why do you want to teach me to practice? ”

"Is that contradictory?" Although it is beyond the scope of the "final question", Longinus does not mind, "I want to kill Koshiro, not you, if I kill you just for fear of revenge, it will be against my justice." ”

"Justice? Is it really appropriate to say justice now? ”

"There is no lack of justice in the sunshine in this world, but justice in the darkness is rarely seen moving forward."

A flash of inspiration flashed through Guina's mind, "Could it be ...... The extremely high discount rate of the Demon Sword Pirates is actually a deliberate cooperation made by you? ”

"That's right."

"What about my father? He's just an ordinary dojo master, why are you killing him? Guina asked.

"About that, if you can survive...... I'll tell you the answer. Longinus rose from his throne and turned and walked towards the apse.

"What do you mean?" Guina tried to chase after her, but was stopped by Apophis.

"The meaning is simple, if you can kill me, you are qualified to know everything!"
