Starlight entered the house from the sand outside the window, and Qing held the carrier pigeon in both hands, and one feather was extremely white, as pure as the first snow. As if he could read the mind of a pigeon, Qing looked at the noble bird in his hand with a pair of dead fish eyes.

"Dinner & Supper -----------------"

[Goo Goo !!!!Goo ----------】

It's a sky-falling word! The pigeon struggled frantically in Qing's hands! But the prescient Qing will not let it escape so easily, holding its hands is the answer! There is no way for him to escape!

"Hmph, hum, hahahaha~~~ Call it as much as you like! Have fun, struggle! No one will come to your rescue, little pigeon. I've decided what flavor I'm going to use tonight to go with your pure feathers! ”

Well, that's normal. Qing has been nesting in Merlin's tower all this time, and the long boring days are about to drive Qing crazy! As for why Qing didn't choose to go out, it was because the blows to Qing a few days ago were too big! And Lan Ma Luo has been squatting near the tower to peep at Qing, so he has no choice but to retreat.

【Boom!! 】

The same smoke, the same magnitude of the explosion, the same dust scattered. Merlin's abstract expression swept away the smoke and wiped away the strange soot from his face. The corners of my eyes are still twitching!

"If I'm not mistaken, I'll have a bigger share of dinner and supper today. And it's provided by the latest superhuman species, and although the meat of these subhuman species may be a little tough, I also studied cooking in the cannibals of Peru! -------”

The food chain is tower-shaped, but it is also separated, and if it can be avoided, the average creature will choose to retreat. So Qing, who has a brain, chose to stop laughing! In the history of biology, strategic retreat makes sense!

"Please forgive me! Ombudsman! Thy nobility shall shine brighter than the stars of the sky, and thou standing high in the clouds shall ignore the humility of our earth. I'm just one of the insignificant and insignificant poor people------"

Works for sycophants, different formats, but always so effective for Mr. Merlin! The magician, whose face was rendered in strange colors, stroked his beard, did not say more, and lowered his head to continue his research experiments.

【Whew~~~】

Qing breathed a deep sigh of relief, even though Qing knew that this was a joke by Mr. Merlin, but in the face of magicians who were always thinking about some strange questions in their heads, it was always good to let them have as few strange inspirations as possible!

【Goo Goo Goo Goo ---】

The pigeon tilted its head, and its dark eyes were filled with the innocence of animal nature. Faced with this expression, Qing's desire to continue to scare it and have some fun went with the wind. This is so sinful! Qing couldn't help but bow his head in frustration.

Let's see who it is. Sending a letter so late? In this case, you are generally not looking for happiness as much as yourself, or you really have something to find yourself! But how much of a thing will happen in this temporary time of peace?

I don't know---- Qing had this idea and untied the little bit of cloth from the pigeon's leg. It's luxury. There are pigeons to deliver letters, and strips of cloth are also used as items to convey messages. This is an act of extreme wealth!

[Come to my dormitory tonight to find me, and talk to you face-to-face about something. -------- Artoria. 】

It's short, it's concise, and it's clear. A small strip of cloth can only convey some information. Qing let go of the pigeon, and it flew away with relief, without even looking back. This is ruthless, obviously I had a lot of fun just now!

"That--- Mr. Merlin, I personally need to go out for some things. Estimated to be back around 10 o'clock----"

Qing straightened her clothes and tightened the loose buttons. After the overall consolidation was completed, Qing carefully observed it again, and did not take the sword. Qing gently pushed open the window, walking on high ground was safer than walking on the ground. At least not to be seen by that strange fellow at Ranmaroke going to have a private affair with their king!

"Be careful on the road. Ah~ One more point! If you don't come back on time, I'll eat a piece of your supper! -----”

Teacher Merlin still kept his head down, but the words he said could make Qing shocked. Before you know it, the youth is also infected with the vice of luxury! Maybe this is also caused by the long-term inadequacy of the stomach in the past!

"I'm not there yet. Don't worry, I'll be here at the appointed time! ”

Qing said and jumped out of the window, this has become a habit of Qing, compared to the troublesome and laborious stairs, it is much more convenient to use the straight way to go out by the window! Qing has enough strength to do so.

It's about eight o'clock in the evening, which is the exact time calculated according to the hourglass of Mr. Merlin's time, and when Qing doesn't have this kind of support, he can only guess the time by the direction of the starry sky and the moon, plus long-term experience.

Merlin's tower is in the castle, and Artoria's dormitory is in another tall fortress building to the east! Sturdy and heavy is what everyone can conclude at first sight!

[Click! 】

Qing's fingers grasp the gaps between the stones in the wall, and firmly clasp them to make Qing walk on the ground. Qing Zai took some effort to bypass the place where the guards patrolled, open the window and rush in!

Artoria had sent letters, not summoned herself to the past. In other words, she didn't use the identity of a king to find herself, so Qing would not use the identity of a knight to see her! This is a meeting that has no hierarchy. So it became necessary to be sneaky.

It is a huge empty tower that once housed a large number of royal families, but now it is depressed and decaying. The only people who live here are Artoria and Morgan, and although this place is extremely eerie, according to their strength, even the goblins are scared away!

The tower is very high, and the upper floor is the king's chamber and the princess's chamber. Guards don't usually come to this level, but they do patrol all floors below. Qing walked to the gate of Artoria's dormitory, although he didn't come in very seriously, but since he was here, he didn't need to be sneaky!

[Knock knock! -----】

"Come in."

Concise and clear, Artoria is not born to speak much, and if she doesn't have much emotion, Artoria generally doesn't say much. It's a matter of character.

Qing gently pushed the door and went, Artoria was already sitting at the table waiting for her. Qing smiled apologetically and moved a chair to the opposite side of her, so that it would be convenient for the conversation.

"Qing, I'm sorry for the recent rumors---- as the king, I can't control these things. ------”

Artoria was wearing pajamas, and compared to her blue robe and armor, she looked even more petite now. After all, inheriting the magic power of the sword in the stone and the dragon factor, even if she is only sixteen years old, she has a quite mature side!

"No need for that, Leigh. It's my choice, they're my friends, and helping them is what a knight should do! I would do the same thing even if I was given another chance to choose, and I never regretted it! ”

Qing's answer was categorical, and he looked at Artoria who was looking at him in amazement without the slightest wavering. Faced with Artoria's surprised expression, Qing could only be helpless. Qing has the idea of observing people's souls and expressions to observe people, but in the face of Artoria, Qing just knows nothing! Not only out of longing but other thoughts, Qing will not allow this purity to be destroyed!

"You're still so confident, there's no difference between good and bad in your eyes. But I'm not just looking for you to apologize, I need your strength-----"

Artoria filled the cup with water and handed it to Ao. Then she pulled out another roll of what looked like a roster and placed it next to the cup.

"The roster of the war dead this time? ----”

Qing picked up the water glass and opened what looked like a parchment book. Because Qing saw the name on it. Really! After opening it, Aoi is full of names! Densely packed with nearly a hundred!

"Not really. A list of orphans sent from all over the country. This is the child I asked Kai to select, and after recruiting them, they are willing to come here to learn and train to become knights. “

"Kids? ------You're saying, let me teach them? ------“

The young man put down the roster and looked at Artoria. It is the tradition of every country to recruit and gather from the young age, to teach knightly etiquette every day and to train suitable, and these children will become the elite troops of the country and the pillars of the kingdom in the future! But Artoria seems to have forgotten something.

"Leigh, you know. I've had a bad reputation lately, and if I were to teach these children, they would be ostracized by the people here. Just like me, everywhere I go, everyone looks at me like they're looking at jackals. If I hadn't been stronger than them, they would have faced each other! How many of these children, do you think, live to the moment they reach adulthood? If I teach them, I'm harming them! ---------“

"Of course, my sister and I have already calculated these necessary items! You can rest assured of that! ----------“
