"I didn't expect things to go well...... Maybe I have a talent for deceiving people? Seeing that the vice-captain was finally convinced, and then retreated with the captain, Heliga was a little surprised - he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and the vice-captain was so easily convinced.

However, they don't deviate too much from the plan anyway - it's just a matter of how much value is used. If used well, they may be able to play a more disruptive role in the execution of their own plans, but the decisive killer weapon is still in their own hands.

Of course, feints are also a more important part - the later the truth of the matter is obtained over there, the better prepared Heliga's own time will be. Although Helriga felt that with the man of Lufas, he would have much less time to spare.

"I didn't expect that...... Fate made people, and yesterday I actually ran into the real mastermind behind the scenes. Heliga laughed self-deprecatingly—the few words these hunters had revealed, but they were very valuable information to herself. That's why he was so happy that he let them all go back - provided they didn't come out against him again, of course.

He cast his gaze on the bushes not far away, where Heliga had burned the bodies of those he had killed with the heat. As long as the release of magic is carefully controlled, it will not cause much movement—but when Helliga picks up the fireball in his hand, he still notices the gaze of someone from the shadows.

Now that the hunters have left, are they going to meet these two mysterious uninvited guests? Heiliga thought as she clapped her hands gently, "Okay...... They're gone, it's time for you to play, right? ”

"Haha...... What, I've found out a long time ago. A somewhat languid male voice let out a brief laugh, "We have no intention of interfering......

"......Indeed," said the voice of a vigorous woman with whom Heliga was well acquainted—but the owner of the voice was now full of doubts, "but since you have said so, I shall ask by the way...... Was it necessary to do that just now? ”

"What do you mean?" Heliga asked deliberately.

"Those hunters - you could have killed so many of them. In terms of your skills, I don't believe you can't do this. And, if you have to, just get rid of the people who actually attacked your territory......"

"Miss Dubarry—I didn't mean to reveal your scars, but I remember you saying that you met the Fullmetal Maiden when you were saved by her desperate after your hometown was destroyed by mercenaries in the war, right?" Heliga saw the glimmer of pain in Duparry's eyes, but he thought about it and didn't break it in the end, "So I'm surprised...... Under these circumstances, would you still have a humanitarian mind about these invaders? ”

"I ......," Dubarry's tone fell into hesitation, "but ......"

"In this case, do you still insist on abiding by what you call "chivalry"?" Dubarry didn't speak, but Helriga understood, "Okay...... If it was Count Liana Sandrot back then, maybe she would have handled it this way. But now this is my domain, and whether it is according to the traditions of the Empire, or the new Imperial Constitution that exists in Balfraim Palace, what I have just done is in accordance with the rules. ”

"I ......" Dubarry choked on Haliga—she remembered what her adored and longing master had once said: "Death" was inevitable on the battlefield—though she said it with a sad look on her face.

"So...... Although I know you probably didn't come for the same purpose. Ignoring Du Barry's hesitation and hesitation, Helriga turned to a young man who had kept his mouth shut and said nothing from the beginning, "But for this reason, let me ask you—what are you doing here?" ”

"Hmph...... It's just out of boredom to walk around. The man still looked lazy, "As for why this guy is following...... Yawning, probably the so-called blind worry. She came out on her own. ”

"You guy......" Du Barry looked at the man on the side with some annoyance, "It's obviously numbered, but you do things so naturally-"

"Among the executors, there are very few people who are not casual people......" Another male voice appeared here—different from the strange and languid voice of the person in front of him, the voice behind him was familiar and warm, "not only him, Ling them, but even me, to some extent. ”

"Ah......" Hearing this voice, Du Barry couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and the man who had a lazy expression just now showed a meaningful smile after a short period of surprise.

"It's you...... I was still telling her before, after the Liber incident, I don't know where you ran away - now that I think about it, I guess I have been on his side all along? ”

"Well...... Sort of. Levi's figure slowly emerged from the shadows, his expression was very soft, but his body movements showed no signs of relaxation, "I spent some time in Crossbell before, but I haven't heard from you yet. Didn't you act with the association before? ”

"I'm not interested in that little trick of 'white noodles'...... Only you idiot would be willing to help him. Well, but I heard that he died in the end, and it was you who did it. ”

"......" Levi didn't speak, taking it as a tacit.

"Well...... I don't really care if you're following the association or not. "Steel" must think the same way. For some reason, Makbang's eyes gradually changed from the joy of seeing the hunter just now, and gradually returned to the boring feeling before, "But...... It's better that you're done with the current situation. Originally, I was going to talk to you a little bit......"

"Mark Bang, you-"

"It's all said, it's the original, the original." Makbang casually interrupted Du Barry's dissatisfaction, "At least you guy, your expression is better now than before - when you recover, remember to fight me again." ”

After saying that, the man known as Mak Bang disappeared in a burst of red-black flames.

"Ahh This guy. Du Barry jumped to her feet in anger, "Why do I always come to be the nanny!! ”

"That person is "No.1"?" Hyliga looked at Levi in surprise, who was thinking about it, "Looks very different from the person you described." ”

"Well...... Probably like you, I can see the difference between me and before. It's always been like that, but this guy is actually very sharp. Levi smiled bitterly - Mark Bang is one of the few in his association, and he thinks that his strength is completely incomparable to his existence, and in the previous several encounters, he was supervised by Arian Hurd, and Levi dared to let go of his hands and feet to fight this monster head-on, "But...... That's not good. It turned out to be this guy here. ”

"Nothing bad...... It seems that he still understands. Heliga smiled, "As long as the association is in charge here, there is no problem-"

"This is also something I want to remind you about...... you know that the "Executor" is not controlled by the Apostles, and this guy has adjusted the priority of all actions to the "refreshing battle" itself. So, this guy's actions are very predictable, but it is also difficult to correct them if something unexpected happens. ”

"I see what you mean...... But I really don't see what he can do. Heliga nodded, "But you're right...... It is also necessary to prepare a little way to deal with it. ”

"You two...... What exactly is being said? And, and why are you here—"

"That's a long story...... "Levi doesn't have any ill feelings towards Du Barry, it's better to say that he actually treats Du Barry and the other three girls of the Iron Machine Team as his sister in his heart, "Since we separated from Cross Bell, we haven't seen each other for nearly half a year, right?" ”

"Well...... Oh, yes. I'm the only one who came to the empire this time. Du Barry deliberately turned her head away, not wanting Levi to see her eyes that were actually full of joy and anticipation, "So, you're going to act with this guy this time?" ”

"Let's just do it." Levi nodded indifferently, "I won't say it for the time being...... the "dead line" is also very unexpectedly active on the side of the Empire, which is very surprising to me - not to mention the Bloblanc guy. By the way, being with this guy Makbang and supervising him to complete the above tasks - thank you. ”

"Alas...... Only you know this best. Du Barry laughed to herself, "Anyway...... It's a pleasure to meet you, Levy. ”

"Me too." Levi smiled faintly, and after untying the knot, Levi seemed to have more active emotional expressions than the previous coldness - although it still looked a little stiff, this still made Du Barry's heart shake slightly, and finally finally broke free from this passive "charm".

"Alas...... In a word. I'm going to challenge you if you have the chance – if only I could increase my win rate to 2%. Du Barry said stubbornly.

"yes...... There's no Mistress Arian Heard to train me this time, and there's no Mark Bang guy asking me to play games with him all night. Levi thought for a moment and showed a faint smile, "Let me take a good look at your progress during this time." ”

"Hmph...... "How could Du Barry not know that this was Levi hinting to her, last time she was able to win completely because she took advantage of Levi's serious lack of physical fitness, this time she has no chance of winning at all, but it is not easy to say anything because of the loss, "Then so be it...... Bye. ”

After saying that, Du Barry also nodded in the direction of Helica. She seemed to want to say something to Helliga, but after a few seconds, she seemed to feel safer not to say anything - a pale yellow light that was completely different from the red light of Makbang just now flashed, and Dubarly's body disappeared into place.

"Alas...... It seems that they are all gone. Isn't what I just said a little excessive? "Heliga couldn't feel anyone around but Levi," said Dubarry. ”

"Her background...... I don't know much either. It is only known that Anis seems to be a guerrilla, and Dubarry's words only know that she is a survivor of the war. As for Ennaia...... I don't really seem to know much. Levi shook his head, "Still, I'm going to have reservations about whether you've gone too far." All three of them are very kind children in nature, but they ...... The kind of situation you just mentioned. If I had this level of power during the Hamel period, I would have ...... them all."

"Alas...... Don't talk about these sad things. Let's be serious. The mention of Hamel would make Levy's mood low—so Hyliga had to change the subject abruptly, "Since you're here, I guess there's nothing going on at the Viscount's Palace?" ”

"Hmm...... When I arrived, I caught a few hunters alive, and their follow-up forces seemed to want to find them, but they were in a stalemate with us around the Viscount's Palace. I have to say that your father is really calm...... But then they suddenly left because of something. Now that I think about it, maybe you threatened their captain? ”

"yes. I couldn't answer Du Barry directly because she wouldn't believe it...... I killed twenty of them, and they finally came to their senses a little and were willing to lay down their weapons and have a good talk. Probably because they're not familiar with this kind of role reversal, right? It was usually these hunters who played the role of powerful predators, bullying the unarmed civilians. ”

"Probably." Lévy pursed his lips noncommittally, "As a result, what useful information did you get over there?" ”

"It's been a lot - I now have not only the evidence that could have killed that guy in Amancia completely, but also how to bring him to ruin." Heliga smiled mysteriously, "I'll just have to make sure what they say is true - but I don't think they would lie to me given the amount of pressure I put on them." ”

"What's going on?" Levi was curious.

"This incident was orchestrated by Count Ammancia - but the problem is that he tried to blame the Duke for this, and took advantage of Count Gotti's trust in him." "If I hadn't forced him to tell the truth, I would have found the wrong target for revenge, and it would have been embarrassing to confront him." ”
