「喂小絮，你剛才是不是想跟伊琳諾說什麼？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVvesqhG6Q
在蕾蒂雅和伊琳諾都回到各自房間之後，艾薇亞拉住我說道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ429ZmZ2YpJ
「本來是的……不過感覺她不會相信，就沒說出來。不是什麼大事。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yhYVSsXWH
艾薇亞喔了一聲，似乎沒打算再追問下去。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pYsofm8R3
「那……你覺得她有沒有介懷我剛才多嘴？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX1GiE75tV
「認識妳一段時間之後就習慣了，妳總是在不合適的場合說不合適的話。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZj1GwQCpw
被刺中的艾薇亞臉上一紅。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9GXWCDkku
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jqkujouQF
「那該怎辦？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCP8rypDuC
「我們現在去看看她吧。要是她不開心就陪她一會，沒什麼反應就東拉西扯一些話題讓她分心。」
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAHqmxbx9k
少女點了點頭，我帶著她上樓敲了敲伊琳諾的房門。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3pkALRsvA
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO9bPTsflg
「沒鎖，進來吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuc9UTlAt16
「伊琳諾…………呃，妳在幹什麼？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHLN810eXi
雲石地板上放滿了黑魔法素材和像是機械零件的金屬塊。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjRFfpBPBz
伊琳諾看著一柄被拆開的火鎗若有所思。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qolciQMQ6
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFmsmUljfw
「這是……火繩槍？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5s9UjovbHP
「是轉輪槍。妳和小絮君繳來的新式武器。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KzcOZq6u9
「妳跟蕾蒂雅要來的？」
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoPTuMEw8q
伊琳諾點頭回應我的問題。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW58ttEC8RM
說起來我也想過要一把便於攜帶的火器，不過一直沒開口要。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlXN6tr5KPd
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJClX2YnsVe
「呃，伊琳諾，我記得妳是個魔法使？魔法使們不是不喜歡依賴機械器物的嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwW2HSeJFg7
沒見識過伊琳諾使用槍械的艾薇亞問道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudcC2sEsI5
「……時代不同了。魔法師在人們心中本來代表著崇拜和敬畏，可是現在魔法漸漸常見，人們也從畏懼魔法師變得開始考慮怎樣超越魔法師。我們需要增強自己的能力，才能不被時代淘汰。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsd87Ed7YO
我選擇借助器物的力量。而且，我本身就喜歡機械類的東西。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfJWxrW4qX
……老一輩的魔法師都不這樣想。特別是學院裡有數十年歷史的魔法師家系。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMan5YqfXk
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ32MGLkF81
艾薇亞顯然是有聽沒有懂，她找了處沒被金屬塊佔領的地方坐下。
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYd7ytMYQEs
「妳在維修……不，改良這玩意？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzW1exI31Z
我被她說得有點興趣，於是開始發問。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUol3CwMB9
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MO2ibaI8h
「是的。跟古老的火繩槍不同，這新槍不需要點火，而以撞針發射子彈。因為去除了引燃火藥的麻煩，槍機的設計更為緊湊，以及──你靠近點看看，這轉輪設計有什麼特別？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EGpbLnKqF
伊琳諾指向扳機旁的轉輪。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenASDaFHwD
「……我可看不出來，還是妳說明吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaGS7DE12h
「轉輪裡可以塞進多於一發的彈藥。現在扣下扳機之後，轉輪就會把下一發子彈推到槍管，也就是──現在的火器已經可以連射了。再也沒有開完一槍之後被敵人靠近任人宰割的事情發生……好吧，發生機率會減少一些，但已經很棒了，不是嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gjTRQEuQE
其實我只聽懂了可以連射這句。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAlYNTt9f0
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZiTbHCuKK
「不過畢竟新式器械沒有傳統魔法體系那麼多年的歷史。而且特別是這些槍支是大量生產的，用料並不是非常優秀……於是我在魔學院拿來的魔法金屬就有用處了，可以拿來替換掉槍機免得它在重要時刻生鏽卡住。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW4Lw4PkLa
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTE0buExsMy
「啊，伊琳諾……妳懂用刺刀嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpIKGog0Z3
艾薇亞突然發問。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuopmBuMs4U
她指著槍支前端安放的刺刀。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCl0ZfhZUyc
為了在面對衝鋒時能夠即時反抗，火鎗前端都裝有刺刀，必要時可以當成長矛使用。不過這女孩子就算有刺刀大概也沒有體力近身搏鬥。
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhfZH1DWP8
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61bdTu5WEr
「……不會。乾脆去掉好了，能更輕一點。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9krkX4Q9G
「真可惜。在騎士受訓時我接受過運用長矛的訓練，要是妳想學我可以教妳。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvll5FPsOkH
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQE8G9xJuG
「啊……我突然想到，要是把魔杖塞進刺刀的位置會怎樣？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPX3nHxx1q
看見刺刀只是粗略地架在槍管上，我感覺塞進什麼都不會影響槍械運用。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡll5jGzQdDT
艾薇亞噗的一聲笑了出來，伊琳諾倒是在認真考慮。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMecHs18JM
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAo7UG76FQ8
「……說不定可行呢。把魔杖握柄削掉，只把尖端的寶石套進去，那應該能兼任魔杖的職務……只是不能帶回學校上課就是了，會被罵死。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgoX07zEdYN
好吧，似乎魔杖不一定需要魔杖的外型。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAC0yyd9Gx
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBCnoPJAhT
「被妳這麼一說我也想要一把了……妳以前用的手槍還要不要？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlN4Sf5EhGq
「小絮君想要的話，我再製一把改裝轉輪槍給你好了。明天就能造好。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDlfmnVfDE
「啊，不用麻煩了……這些金屬很貴吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBouNcJSTYE
「魔學院的倉庫堆得放不下。這些魔法金屬其實是學生做的功課，不過除了特別優秀的被買去造武器之外，別的都堆在倉庫沒人要……」
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHfF2bDXci
「那，拜託妳了。艾薇亞要不要一把？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8LZLbdohS
「啊，免了……想到要填裝，維護我就頭痛。我還是喜歡用劍。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQENKXbclfN
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKlkMnzmq8
＊ ＊ ＊546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBW8iTfh8Yl
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxT2fMtSOi
在閒談了一段時間後，天色已經黑了下來。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36Uik1rVDw
在見識到伊琳諾徒手把魔法金屬製成槍機之後，我開始思考惹到魔法師的後果。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9o0sAGqUi
除了沒有魔杖在手之外，她差不多已經調整好整把火鎗。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11UYml7XQu
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLLQhIvwjP
「……騎士團差不多來到了吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQoNa81MTg
忽然，伊琳諾看著時鐘問道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsprBrZOsc3
「……啊，差不多了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2kzHNJvCQ
艾薇亞不甚熱衷地回道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9EwTMOWIF
「……我留在這幫小絮君改裝手槍。我不下去了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMTXsAUygU
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxEzd6MvoN
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AxAphCkH4
「為什麼妳們好像不想看著騎士團的樣子？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGidO0Asmkd
我向她倆發問。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS679qt4LTR
「並不是不想看見啦……只不過，來的肯定是我的哥哥，他……實在是比較有活力。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsdzi6J1cOR
艾薇亞苦笑說道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLh0DVYBQK
……等等，她的哥哥？546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckVTQzyXVQ
就是吩咐騎士在我胸口刺上一刀那個人？546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVcUuG6745
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXbblff2FG
「……他是騎士團成員？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSA6SS97Bp
「是團長。雖然蕾蒂雅沒說，可是要說到騎士團的精銳，那來的必定是他。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo33m68dzM
「……那，他叫什麼名字。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS7kYg5CAD
我暗摸小刀的動作沒被艾薇亞發現，她面無表情地問答我的問題。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziIC5tyd5i
「塔維斯．賽林，我的第二個兄長。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILBcCMuDbH
「呃，第二個？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxIVh34WBe
「小絮君不知道嗎？艾薇亞有兩個哥哥啊。雖然都相處得一般……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWSIZKBfzT
「實際上還有一個妹妹……不過和大哥相比，他算是跟我比較說得來的家人。」
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo5idRmE09
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvrtsD5M2K
「他是怎麼樣的人？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa1d2q8wtF
「小絮君，你把艾薇亞的冒失和正義感乘以三再變成男人，就是她的二哥。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVUPVTrDIo
「……也就是三倍的呆笨，不看場合發言，暴力，智商低下和沒常識？……喂別捏我的臉！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSbsUeEopA
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljvk1xN3P6
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyYzxZ9S50
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiS41GNch6b
最後只有我和艾薇亞兩人走到大廳迎接。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqU0rbzwVws
正門站著六名騎士。站在最前面的人有著跟艾薇亞稍微相似的臉。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAW7LfOay4t
如果記憶沒錯，三年前派人滅口的人應該是賽林家長子，而不是這個騎士團團長。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b2qVxxq9a
不過他有可能也知道內情，我在試探他口風的同時必需小心。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihuYQ57Alw
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5KiFXKES9
「晚上好，塔維斯兄長。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m6xypVlhq
「晚上好。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvXv1RF7rp
我跟著艾薇亞打招呼。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxs6xNogbw
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTMsCgHOxj
「艾薇亞晚上好。這位怎麼稱呼？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMr6uCmTaR
「啊，他叫米利恩．賽……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIG7736luX
「咳咳，直接叫小絮就好。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4HiTVp8ow
我暗地伸手一拍艾薇亞。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkHSfW5tbA
她擅自給我取的偽名使用了賽林這姓氏。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPucqGboSY
瞞得過別人，可瞞不過妳的家人好嗎？546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59G2vXuMn3
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlYYnO5cDG
「在下是近衛騎士團團長塔維斯．賽林，很高興認識你。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQWmjIbQUM
先問一下……小絮，你是不是重視禮節那類人？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsw1OrOYKV
「不是。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxBCO5cRQh
我微笑答道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSyzt1BMOJ
「呼，那各種禮儀可以免去了吧？實話告訴你，我最不耐煩貴族見面時一定要做的那套規矩了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKg5OAINbnn
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeVyxZiIlh
「請放心，我不會說出去的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcjmT9w0wwm
我依然微笑著說道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKHCpReUXc
「……哥哥的習慣早就天下皆知了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HtRW8zOxy
「少來說我，艾薇亞妳不也一樣嗎？家裡就我們兩個性格最像，過不慣家裡的貴族生活，選擇以騎士的身份為王國出一分力……546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN02tiMUOn1
說到這個，艾薇亞妳的進度真快啊。受訓至今三年，竟然已經做到我起步頭十年的成就。現在還反過來指揮我了，唉，有個強悍的妹妹，感覺真複雜啊。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXEQ9zHUlB
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir7SIRnzgS
「啊，指揮……？指揮工作不是……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPtTVebXzr
「妳忘了蕾蒂雅不方便在別人面前表露身份？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1mpjIYMKI
我又拍了拍她，提醒她蕾蒂雅的身份。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74RL5Qpcre
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtusPr3wf6o
「好吧，那哥哥你不服氣嗎？反過來被妹妹指揮的感覺。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelTec6aH9r
「哪有。妳知道我最喜歡把指揮之類要動腦筋的工作推給別人。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafkoSScWXP
「……這點你的妹妹也……疼！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8phrEGX7N
屁股被拍了一下。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLFfYX9GIK
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7NY8sPdRX
「哈哈。小絮，我和她都是這樣的脾氣，小時候還常常打架呢。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsDzukZBR4
不過畢竟我是男生，年紀大了，逐漸就不能對女生還手了，她看我不還手也不好意思再打下去。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhy2YKYdOj
「她會不好意思？……喂！我可沒那麼紳士，我可要還手了？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TEUxuhnyu
說話的同時後頸又捱了一掌。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwU5Y4vWtK
「哥哥，我有點私人問題要處理。請帶你的人到二樓就宿。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozMt74bpO1
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWjgHrT7A5
＊ ＊ ＊546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaTSkD7qR7
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWdHZMQbnV
「嘻嘻，我就知道小絮不會還手。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmMYfZ7CFV
「……免得打髒我的手。就當被蚊蟲咬了幾口好了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmcTB6KVDI
「跟你說啊，哥哥就是因為不愛回嘴，我才不打他的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuB7JVY9zhi
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmnG3O94sy
爭執的結果是艾薇亞無傷獲勝，而我臉上吃了一巴掌，腰間三拳，小腿兩腳。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlRo1Dgpjo
跟以往比起來，不論是下手還是頻率都比以往輕。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1661HH8G1
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu8A4fhRKw
現在我和她坐在三樓的咖啡廳。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4krXWkSI2
雖然服務生在行動前已經疏散，但果汁和糕點還是有留下一些。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlZVTo4BBL
靜謐的夜裡，在微光中品嚐糕餅的滋味很奇妙。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZjsRwZTMLz
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJXIWN1tEx
而且，身邊坐著那個笨蛋女。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48PE04Xwl3
女性的髮香連同蛋糕的小麥香氣混進鼻子，感覺……算了，我還是不要去想。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlcJsk9WJK
認真的喜歡上了這個笨女孩這種事，怎麼可能說得出來。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJctOX1l4TK
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxAsNcXMoE
「……我給伊琳諾拿些甜餅。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvXtD7fVdt
「啊，我也去。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJAocISYwb
……沒能甩掉她。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvgvBKPdFE
嗅覺的刺激令心情絮亂。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmmdoM58Ql
伊琳諾好像忙得連門都沒有打開，只叫我們把糕點放在門口。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fKnCqfoEv
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmTBYxJdaA
於是我們又回到了咖啡廳。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyqSmuUMq8Z
……我寧願她揍我一頓，讓我斷掉幻想。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIydOoKCHjh
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchlfO9rHip
「小絮。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPPZgT7yTN
「……什麼事啊，笨蛋。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8NGOaJiM6
心跳加速的時候，只好用刻意無禮的語氣拒絕交流。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mrTy8NW1k
「光源不足的時候你的臉好像可愛一些。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrvSH8jcJP
「嗯，就像妳那男性化的臉被黑暗遮蓋時，妳也會稍微順眼一點點的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAuSxvHEvvz
腹部只捱了輕輕的一拳。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpWw7WQKN2
如果是平時，她早就把我整個人抓起摔在地上。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyGyaZE1qn
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2FHPcGn6o
「你就不能說我也可愛嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNlWF3cTS8
「我騙妳沒問題，但妳自欺欺人有用嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZnnxb8KQC
「小絮你才是啊，自欺欺人有用嗎？546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOboJrS2ei
雖然嘴還硬著，但你早就軟下來了吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTv6EMnygn
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtU5kS3H54a
她大概說的是內心軟下來，而不是說什麼別的地方。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopq4ng3eJr
「雖然……那個人在我心裡還是很重要，但我感覺開始有跡象走出陰影了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qYc9cUZo3
在跟你待在一起的時候，感覺很愉快。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqFGMBAK7V
「……跟誰在一起？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2E44qveFaI
雖然明知，還是故問。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2F09c3oyYt
「你又忘了？算了，你反正也不認識。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8tZiQgQed
那個對我不太溫柔的男生啦。雖然他跟你有些相似，但……我覺得分別愈來愈大了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeYddbSJg0
……還真有點啼笑皆非。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LPYGFAmtk
不過也好，談論這種話題時，我不會有額外的生理衝動。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggaadpelV9
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEw0FEL2ZF
「……什麼分別啊。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8ZKcErfT6
「你比他要更溫柔一點。就像剛才打架，我想他至少會還一兩下手。而且，最重要的是……你不會一聲不吭就離開我。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6EyFV5Nwl
「……卡羅琳小姐也是。伊琳諾也是。為什麼要對我說？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF0NH26ScK
「廢話，你是男生啊。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvl9XJ33ui
「……妳哥哥也是男生，也不會離開妳。跟他說去。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLklSyzyOB
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15W9nWbcxQ
艾薇亞臉上掛著微笑，好像在說懶得跟我說下去了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rGUE2Dj5q
她伸手摟住了我，把臉靠在我的肩上。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8opwJQ4uf
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPW4ZYNVIq
「……我快要大叫非禮了啊？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIDK3Iqlg1
「叫啊，我看大家相信是我非禮男生呢，還是你非禮女生。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAhPVybTj1
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjukvGaDl4P
艾薇亞整個人就像小貓似的粘纏在我身上。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kVMeYeOIl
我把身體盡量貼近椅背，但我每退一點，艾薇亞就進一點。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJxWw2DgoF
滲進鼻子裡的不只是髮香，還有體香。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5F2xYkdmr
隔著衣服，仍然感受到她身體的柔軟白嫩。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQloLgac4y
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiYqH4fKCk
「我感覺自己喜歡的就是小絮你這樣的男生。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKS3rpdgfK
「……為什麼？喜歡被逗弄的感覺？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSVQwdFHJl0
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIZXhhcf7F
我自覺已經盡可能地對她不友善了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxcCeD8mwe
……「盡可能」其實也只不過是偶爾說幾句逗她的話。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrtfcqW1yp
如果我真的能狠下心腸，在她抱上來的時候一把推開她就是了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1VJKBkIiPU
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzTbKlpq51
「雖然看上去不可靠，可是小絮是會陪伴我到最後的人。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLva2HzAuyQ
雖然你極力掩飾，但我知道的……你是最珍視我的男生。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTZI8brNPy
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjmoJoPIlr
無言而對，只好伸手撫摸她的頭髮。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0jBFDMMid
「我覺得我這類人是無法討人喜歡的。說不定妳很快就會後悔。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbIp6cp0K5
說實話，我不喜歡自己。不喜歡自己自然也不懂喜歡別人。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gGUlfoPoJ
「你只是不懂而已。你是喜歡我的。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxl24FKIW3
你一直在保護我，也不捨得傷害我。哪怕在戰鬥的時候。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5XBxT8csu
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGsFNfxVL6
……為什麼這種時候她突然變得那麼敏銳。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLDck6gRLp
「……說不定我只是一直比較孤單，為了不想忍受這痛楚，才會對別人好來留住別人。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrWcETt5eY
「那我已經被你留住了。你不會孤單的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTosuwV2eiC
「……妳的心靈很寬廣，妳懂得了解和包容身邊的人。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBc0becBVzE
當初我就是被妳這點吸引住的。所以才會來到妳身邊。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLntovT7Io
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7oztGKALyt
艾薇亞臉上露出神氣的表情。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYM1yzZrbh
她把自己這項特點視為驕傲吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7S7cNf9WA0
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBTb6yuOsa
「坐下來，我想跟妳談談我的事。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAdYIAY0m3
我抱起了艾薇亞，把她扶到她本來的座椅上。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlLb5VohDN
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztOJ9vTyDj
……不自覺地被她引出了心底的話。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNroDAsGtEi
只要小心一點言辭，應該不會有什麼問題吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWW4WiDPI71
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCkKVb58I0
「我討厭自己。我覺得自己會為身邊的人帶來不幸。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPdPMOsDXG
即使我無意傷害別人，對我親切的人依然會因為我遭遇不測。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTk0Rjyla9
姊姊在密林中遭受圍攻的一幕浮現在記憶中。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK5J8Hn9AB
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezWdrmpxGI
「那個曾對我很親切的人，我曾經猜疑過她。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGBi2HCLiY
就因為一個陌生人的離間。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoQ4UplBVr
就因為沒有血緣關係這種緣故，曲解了別人的心意。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmslwasJkj
多疑又自作聰明。我這樣評價自己。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEYJob9evf
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0CffroQj9
艾薇亞表情溫和的在聆聽。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGWio7Axfc
看著她這樣的表情，我覺得真正呆笨的其實是自己。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQDGG2TnEN
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjE6Zq3Mpo
「自此之後我不再信任陌生人，但我當時仍然不清楚自己會帶來惡運。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwXvBDgA0C
我試圖鍛煉自己的力量來防止厄運降臨，可是沒有效果。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxi48y98mx
這次好幾個家庭被我帶進絕路。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SrpkuS1c5
我極其含糊地帶過了三年前的事件。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngCSm8L1RO
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgbQQhX1LE
「小絮。人是不會帶來惡運的。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm0HwjTgnQ
你想想，你所經歷的不幸是因你而起的嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa18U2gXjVQ
……這得問妳哥哥。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBnXQ8tcLv
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NoHswQ4e5
「不是我。是由某些我從未見面的人發起的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpCbTgzqX7
「那就是了。你只不過是當時在場，而又未能阻止而已。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrDBkR3UQ4
就像我和伊琳諾──你沒為我們帶來惡運對吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGdDWD1qqc
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyij9eoZRe6
伊琳諾是沒有，可是妳已經被我連累一次了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fJG0kwmaR
不過這不能說出口。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHCeoX6pEj
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7ixM6dHxG
「……是沒有。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVTyMo3hnX
「那就把惡運這種論調拋到一邊。我，不，我們擁有力量保護身邊的人。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvg6bdjD196
小絮。你自己就不只救過我一次了，你還沒有自信嗎？546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbED0iEXow
就算還沒有自信也不要緊。我會幫助你的，無論任何厄運降臨，我都相信我們能合力打破。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLa3zCBIXMz
「……我個人是比較希望不會有厄運再次降臨。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX3EnPYznV
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wikixgrrX
艾薇亞剛才橡皮糖似的黏人，現在卻在握拳站立，一副很有信心的樣子。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2rbYGGx4Z
……兩種都很適合她。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD25UBDwmTg
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXlI3762X6
「我當然也希望啦，但即使不幸發生，我也不會害怕。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1OV2dGbNv
……嘻嘻，我知道到時小絮會保護我的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckzplV6z32
「……在能力範圍以內，也許會。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Oa59TXB3D
「你的嘴巴總是跟內心意見不一。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVmRzXc1YP
但你也總該承認，你是喜歡我吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHoEynG6VZ
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFDyPkkznV
我也像她一樣站起身子，然後伸出雙手，微微使力捏住她兩邊臉頰。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmkAOGSea9
「假如再漂亮一點我會考慮。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvCH7AWW4D
「變態！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sLw11nHsX
她一腳踏上了我的腳面，然後一巴掌掃倒了我。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY2Ah33dxS

「小絮君，昨晚睡不夠嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZD64lbVKx
「不知道是不是作了關於艾薇亞的夢，害我一整晚心神不寧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41INLu3lrO
「作夢會有巴掌痕跡嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSecrNSVbJ
「為了確認是夢還是現實，我摑了自己一耳光。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZgriZFaNd
「……那還真用力啊。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQXup3Xcpa
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdX8jHBrhbr
清晨，與穿著睡衣在走廊散步的伊琳諾聊天。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoU1i10iT67
艾薇亞既然和我待到同樣時間才睡，她肯定還沒醒。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xPgq4mXwH
我從伊琳諾手裡接過她改造的短鎗。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkplZHWlUu8
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLliFpiF8P
「昨晚並沒有多少時間，所以我只更新了輪機。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61LurAiUrk
不過已經可以保證一千發以內不會炸膛或者卡彈了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhM8XYkBScj
「謝謝。妳有好好睡嗎？別為了幫我弄得自己失眠。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFxhfvEhg8
「你看我能夠自然醒來還起得比你早就知道了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY7XTesROO
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOsfMg7fqa
為了不驚醒飯店內的人，我跟伊琳諾跑到室外試練射擊。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRMbVSuLWF
在指導了握法和瞄準之後，她把一些子彈塞到我手裡。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgOYFriGCt
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ifrT354Ie
「該真正試一槍了。放鬆手腕，不要跟槍支拚力氣……546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIfIX7SQbz
不要弄亂呼吸，開槍前手不要抖。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPdeLN6aJJ
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlU85iUEymh
數次射擊之後，我總算是能擊中目標物了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsTzodsjog
第一次開槍的反震差點令我下意識地用腕力壓低槍支，幸好伊琳諾不停叫我放鬆。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmATkfCCi0
手槍的轟鳴聲頗為響亮。不過，比起伊琳諾日前用的那把已經好多了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw84V4mKah
而且威力和實用性都不低。可以成為劍與魔法以外的第三種工具。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIwnG2jVml
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEZO8OW5Bi
「小絮君，該去叫醒艾薇亞了吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTL8igu9hfn
「嗯，我試試對她的枕頭來一槍。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbzHzuYBbX
「即使這樣她也未必會醒的。還是我來吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd6npXHtyX
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZW3up0QTg
即使明知艾薇亞在睡，伊琳諾還是很有禮貌地輕輕叩門。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoilGhFPzMk
房內是睡姿不佳的艾薇亞，抱著羽毛枕很舒服的樣子。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UuoUGwSpz
不妙，有點可愛啊。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkiF94RSm0
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrYHys3FvE
「起床啦。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOrhOknrvr
毫無回應。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5G6kjbdJl
伊琳諾像是早知道沒有效果一樣聳了聳肩。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nWpuCaerL
「小絮君，學著點。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sKFZvGgAs
伊琳諾用髮絲在她腳底輕輕搔弄。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig9or0Cyod
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQPLYPew4F
「嗚哇！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhhDPwMulS
艾薇亞雙腳快捷無比地縮進被窩，上身反射性地坐直。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4m5e5l7uxc
「起床啦。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGj1YEc2Db
伊琳諾仍然毫無表情地說道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBJNon3U0l
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmIoQztRVn
「啊……距離集合還有多少時間？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiRSNHpOQK
「一小時。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8kDDD8pEa
「喔。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bY1gwU02b
然後艾薇亞又一臉滿足地倒在床上。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgc3aUCjE1
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef0FVp0yDF
……這傢伙沒救了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxqOJQsbji
我們只好先一步到達大廳，看見正在喝紅茶的蕾蒂雅。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6FPWUqnap
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds2N474U5C
「早安。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6QkUhQ4RB
「早安，伊琳諾。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmOSQOCoVO
明明我也有說早安，但她只回應伊琳諾一個人。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDcbGSOdya
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsG888iEMI
「……妳就不用整理下自己的裝備嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMXPzoXexw
「我沒裝備。優秀的暗殺者不用裝備就能幹活。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy9d3Aibwr
「……那妳那柄鐮刀和鋼翼呢？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBS9MbqLtP9
「它們不是裝備。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxb4xmZQiMc
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkivdYDj3R
我有點懷疑她是不是睜眼說瞎話，但的確每次都不知道她從哪兒拿出東西，戰後又是不知道她藏到哪兒去了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmyElKwkkg
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrHvoZ4iVQ
「比起我，你先顧好自己吧。你還在用那柄小刀嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsw09HRxP1
「……是的，怎麼了？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoILa8abSz
「我警告過你了。你要繼續用是你自己的事。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgXgYU7NMv
「……小刀被下過咒這件事？這咒應該根本不是針對我下的，唯一能對這把刀下咒的人根本沒必要對我使用咒術。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtWTIZZ0yh
「你愛這樣想是你的事。希望你不要又要昏倒進醫院。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIktaLJmjWu
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy4vdcn5zY
蕾蒂雅的這脾氣我知之甚稔，也就沒有回嘴。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zYFoqQrRT
清點一下現在的裝備。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNX6MCsIZs
背上一柄長劍，腰間掛著左輪短槍，以及藏在腕底的小刀。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrOPriCzqM
槍和小刀都是簡便且不顯眼的武裝，但背上那把長劍對暗殺者而言特別礙眼。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8ONUtHdLU
好想能用魔劍。本來打算再試試召喚的，但蕾蒂雅在旁邊就算了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwq7jQYrlCp
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaVAGY0KYK
「今天傭兵團隨時都可能會來。為了不打草驚蛇，伏擊隊伍都佈置在飯店裡面，直到確認大門閉鎖時才各自組成防線。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHntGEKUfuR
等所有人進入飯店內部之後，小絮在大門待命準備閉門。當他們進入地下室範圍，或有人警覺到陷入包圍時馬上閉鎖。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGA2yOOsg6
萬一他們在進入飯店前就察覺到異常，那就改為追擊戰。與沿路監視的騎士團配合，務求逮捕全員。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7ZpyQo24V
……請把作戰內容跟沒睡醒的成員再說一遍。解散。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy2j38TqY1
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SGT8pYHyy
把作戰內容跟艾薇亞說明只花了三分鐘，但把她從床上弄下來花了至少半小時。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBv7q81o1w
前二十五分鐘是髮絲搔腳和賴床不起的死循環。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4asI1tGZf2
最後五分鐘是我失去耐性，用拇指用力在她腳底按壓，和因此遭受的處刑時間。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFswcOBZEn
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzPUFxQaGA
「好過分啊，腳底還在酸痛……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI32ksP9Pi0
「我差點被妳打得頭骨都要碎了也沒抱怨。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWjYzASjJb
「你自找的！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XUdTH8Gdx
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBZXOMiust
我懷疑這女孩會不會有一天直接把我打死。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCAb81LL2p
伊琳諾的說法是，不用懷疑，那一天必定會到來。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7olfBDfG7
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYX44dNiYK
「……傭兵團已經出發了。奧契多本人，兩個專業傭兵，和五個芬納家的親信。按照預想的路線前來。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzX0f6fiZsw
蕾蒂雅面前放著施了魔法的地圖。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8Q3bQY1N9
佈滿了黑點的路線正一個個變紅，這大概是在崗哨視察的騎士團用作通知蕾蒂雅的手段。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CdQ2XQlxs
萬一他們想逃回來，也有這些崗哨的人中途截擊。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxyyE0K3Ig
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwiKxbejK7
我隱伏在大門旁的裝飾物後面，只要推開裝飾，距離大門只有一步之遙。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98wWHyX1dI
伊琳諾站在二樓的扶手旁邊調整槍支。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC3vrMvwrE
艾薇亞兄妹和騎士們則都待在地下室設伏。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2jqtQk6NF
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWLRF2p6w6m
大門慢慢地被打開。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRysWI4FAOJ
我屏息靜氣，伊琳諾也躲了起來。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiVNnYxnRT
第一個走進來的是奧契多。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCiCLlCRJx
上次在黑暗中看不清他的樣貌，現在看來，感覺像是不修篇幅的青年。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xauMlVblm
因為鬍子刮得比較隨便的關係，也許實際上比看起來要年輕一點。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX72jNSAfx
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuJlbpfa1k
「魔學院的人都走了嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOoZhsqmXi
「應該都走了吧，外面的使魔都撤掉了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJV3JIsk4a
「為什麼他們突然全跑了？我們的地下室被發現了嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSR1K7Jgha
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABBRFhMGFM
外面的人三三兩兩地步進飯店。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuF2ToDMsvn
合共八人都進來了，暫時還沒被發現。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5IJq6uzvT
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyouUgmYNY
兩個傭兵呼喚著幾個人名，大概是被我和伊琳諾做掉的人吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKhtp0QBjO
「沒人回應啊……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N7z4SLFiv
「地下室隔音很優秀的，大概只是聽不見吧。奧契多老大，進去看看情況吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKpml9S1XG
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8OBME1rcp
奧契多不自然地四處張望。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡap5GEjg7gF
「啊……沒事，你們先去。我看看周圍。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8qKOOl2CN
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuJGjOeDLg
其他七人雖然有點疑惑，但還是走近了地下室。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlwyywoJw0
只有奧契多四處遊移，但就是不靠近地下室一步。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsVOJMRHiZ
不能再等了，現在就得鎖門。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepPltshVoy
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINieE6k8Nh
我一把推倒了面前的架子，快步搶到門前。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlmvUVMDcS
「我就知道……！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls38OjoVhH
奧契多箭步向大門衝去。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnQhH3S3Dg
我雙手使力猛拉大門。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcjU0C8Od3
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHsZqN1EkB
「讓路！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpy0RIrodz
「嘖！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJvBLW0ycr
背後風聲響起，奧契多已經奔到身後舉起拳刃。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYz1udxa19
要是繼續關門的話必需雙手齊使，加上背對敵人──546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzrDwpMmac
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXA0z38Ne5
在他一刀劈下之前，我頭也不回地用背向後一撞，右手肘錘撞向對方。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr92blZBQJk
不過這僅僅讓他沒劈下拳刃，他另一隻手一把推開了我，衝出了大門。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1pgc5gRYa
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsA5CWl5ZO
「不妙……！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTra1v1Pl3S
我也趕緊衝出大門，但只看到他遠去的背影。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2t4oeQ0vhK
我用力緊緊拉上大門，在鎖上門鎖之後回頭一看，奧契多早已連影子也不見了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1PXQWvEZw
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWNeazMDLJ
「不是回城的路……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyea7KzwBI
他並沒有原路退回，而是向著山林荒野之類的偏僻地方跑。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9weJfX9PDy
那麼崗哨的騎士根本抓不住他。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZ9vY3NMAx
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaEpbAEmmf
「乘還沒跑遠……！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQksH6zJQM0
雖然危險，但我還是決定孤身追縱。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMb4kdRPdWF
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0aJcYJrKp
飯店本身處於城中偏僻的地方，回到市中心的路只有一條。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZM7MWEHhQ
既然他不選擇這條路，那就只能躲在郊外。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsx9RotAY7
正常來說這是個不錯的選擇，但，546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡko2UCAXXVP
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquLZLBCz6M
「碧眼，偵搜──」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw94KBHVLjm
要逃過魔眼使的追縱，最好的方式反而是在人堆裡藏。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qM1s0VZ06
轉成碧綠色的魔眼捕捉住了人類的氣息。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJpTj3EQb1
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlYcFV6u1V
生物的存在會無意中干擾世界的魔力運轉。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbCsarxmFq
只要還活著，人類就仍處於魔力的循環系統。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHFyGEwTcZ
因此，呼吸進食等等活動廣義均可被稱作魔法。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGyzzLqieA
只是常人眼中的魔法往往反而是那些召風喚火，破壞平衡地從大氣中提取魔力的舉動，才被稱為魔法。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgSAU1USk0
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KyneG8N9C
轉化魔力以干預現世的魔法原本被稱作外源魔法，而以自身魔力運行的則是內源魔法。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Xg9ImbcDh
不過因為內源魔法實在平凡淺顯，世人都漸漸把外源魔法直接稱為魔法，甚至包括伊琳諾之類的正統魔法師。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L4kuG46uf
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptT4k0P9ly
但我小時候學到的不同。我的家族主要是精於內源魔法，外源基本只是略通一二。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22DKnbeiXg
我的魔眼和魔劍屬於內源，而黑燄紫霧則是外源。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuLbJV2BHn
蒼藍的魔眼能夠穿透障礙察知人類本身，而碧綠的魔眼則是看穿大氣。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4f6Iq6k91c
即使沒有靈敏的嗅覺，我仍能從周遭大氣的循環發現人類的活動足跡。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhTLEQVtZV
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA8R4q5sDH
追縱到了樹林。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5Du0JgPYI
他跑得並不遠，似乎是確信我們之中沒人能追到這些。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cAao0EEE8
我解除了魔眼，以肉眼從遠處觀察奧契多的身影。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIVndsUC1y2
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaIOaMHaU6
……他在偽造足印。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoA5oJVpJw
大概是想把被足印引來的追兵在樹林中引開吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1jaL3cSYJ
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaN6VsWLDAW
但很遺憾的是，樹林是我的主場。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYp1E2WpoV
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfwxcm3ctw
「造得好逼真啊，不過下次如果能不在追兵面前偽造腳印就更完美了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVil7vUptE4
我單手抓住樹幹穩住半身，下身穩穩坐在樹枝上。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJZ9ZHLfEP
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch5pzneXus
「不用等到下次，你閉上眼睛數一百聲再來抓我，我保證你絕對發現不了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNldvE5pwc
「因為我沒數到十你就幹掉了我對吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg7x2JHCew
「還要數到十？小子你真有自信。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcDdKUlkUb
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZk3s6yEXap
他似乎不怎麼慌張的樣子。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsPoxc50NA
「雖然你追上來了，但你的同伴似乎沒跟上啊。我用不用找棵顯眼點的樹把你掛上去，讓你的同伴找到這兒時能順利替你收屍？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0X8iKUSZu
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoe58O4Ah9t
「我不依賴同伴。不像你要賣掉同伴才能獨自逃生。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmakvpOnDv9
你明明感覺到有埋伏，為什麼不早點大聲示警，讓同伴也能一起跑啊？546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRgCQb1R4m
是不是怕沒同伴在裡面拖延時間，伏兵就會馬上出來追你？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKKwn9WMHr
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgfnnAs6la
「我不明白你為何認為他們是我的同伴。我是傭兵，而他們還沒付今個月的報酬。按道理，我還該向你們討回賞錢。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa37XMnTy2q
還有，只要他們還在裡面，你就要先鎖門才能追我。就算你現在追到了，你的同伴也已經不可能來救你了。要怪就怪你自己為何不跑慢點，偏要追上我。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxVIgzPhyM
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKGUsROQkD
「你認為我能追上來但不能對付你？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X2Y86n2tt
「下來試試看吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYA3vFgltJ
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlW91t7Mv5b
我抽出長劍，從樹頂連著劍風一躍落地。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsCqTaj6US
奧契多沒有硬接跳躍揮擊，他側身躲開，然後從拳套上彈出尖刃。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0mLCpDuhW
我低頭躲過瞄準額頭的三記刺突。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ924YtbF8DK
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9rRxdh7lJ
「小鬼，失算了吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZSru7DPJ1
我翻轉長劍想要刺穿他的手臂，但劍尖被某種硬物擋住了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqDnsdj6K6
「花樣挺多。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrHDjo9BMp
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxMLWv5YUw
看不清楚他袖下藏著什麼東西。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3tC3ZQ0Wv
大概是護套護腕之類的東西吧，他用的拳刃因為不方便迴護自身，因此他預先穿上了防護裝備。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4eQuRYtJj
但他雙臂轉動靈活，不像是戴上了重裝護甲的樣子。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOGCXZ3FOC
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqEcgw9CNxF
摸不清楚對手底細，我退後兩步，左手罩住一把大氣魔力捏成球狀。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGw6fMceNBc
對準奔近而來的敵人，成形的黑燄脫手飛出。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklPbhhFE02
敵人一閃身就躲過了，而且用拳刃架住我繞向側面的偷襲。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphJaISN8JP
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGglmXZEsfk
我連刺數劍，敵人除了用刃身擋架之外，有時還故意以前臂擋劍。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBfqzmAw5v
但刺向上臂的攻擊他一律躲避。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiT1LUaJCC
由此看來他的護手應該只防前臂。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxuTR4ig8q
想到此處，我向後一躍然後向天拋出長劍，雙手齊施連發黑燄。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZ4EJMD88K
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fZVatZaQh
每一發炎彈都被對方躲過，但密集的火雨也讓敵人無法近身。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1hn7fgAdd
「小子，你就愛這樣浪費魔力嗎？你就算拖延時間，也沒人會來幫你！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLglhAxxrf
我不作回答，右手抄起從空中掉落的長劍。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT43boyZrHA
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw5sRqK5Sf
眼見火網消弱，奧契多正面一刀刺來。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHaHSdczl4
我左手朝正面敵人放出一顆火球，但被對方用前臂打散。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqPLm2dTHN
我一躍跳上小樹，但他一刺不中，乾脆直接一刀劈斷我身處的樹幹。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb39SGRiVCU
他獵鷹般的眼睛瞧著快要摔落的我，準備在我失去平衡時把我一刀兩斷。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiFqxIHlGo
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxfTnIlYDR
「這，這煙是…？！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjAW5AgUuL
但，黯紫的煙霧蓋住了他的視線。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡircej0aiAg
我發出火雨本來就不打算擊中對方。這兒是樹林，無論我射向哪兒，都會打中易燃物。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcbFtOCQrP
雖然魔力形成的火燄消退頗快，但仍足夠點燃煙霧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiPXdsO5xN
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIDU2QmKY7
紫霧罩住了附近一帶，而我則早已跳到另一棵樹上，睜開蒼藍的魔眼盯緊霧中的敵人。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gHistAQeC
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLfDqGcy4h
他沒有失去理智地亂揮刀，而是在數刀不果後背靠樹幹，以防我的偷襲。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Iy3LULQDl
同時拳刃橫胸護住要害，準備在我現身一刻就即時反擊。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGDl4ofd2O
這在面對近戰時是很不錯的應對方式，然後我緩緩地掏出了手槍。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWLVLY7VFD
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcsv9dY1bH
蕾蒂雅說要活口，那就別打頭好了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrLmMIDXMT
槍口火光響起，呼嘯飛出的子彈擊中了拳刃，把刀身打成兩截，尚有餘力的子彈還貫穿了他身後的樹幹。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Fw0TibYFq
我隨著子彈飛身躍下，槍響很好地蓋過了我的聲音。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrsSIAVgnG
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6L6eetngtw
長劍直指右上臂。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVmCzs4pOv
不料仍是噹的一聲，劍尖依舊沒刺進去。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHV9bB5oke
同時失去刀刃的拳套上突然冒出了鋼刺，反手刺向我的手腕。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ESjEKJ31p
在我縮手避開的一刻，奧契多一把奪過我的長劍，繼而踢飛我的手槍。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2RQhTZbfj
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjm8n2Mdc4
在極近距離，奧契多長劍一撩插向我的胸膛。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0ulX8BdAk
兩把武器都已失去的我就算仍能使用魔法，在這瞬間也凝聚不了魔力。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ox6lsY8Ag
在這臉貼臉的距離要躲更是無從說起。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK6WdcGaKk
我精心計畫的突襲已經把自己逼進死地。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZhqTQ49aZ
──他是這麼認為的。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCb3lqH8bk
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dGA6qefiS
「有沒有人告訴你，我最信賴的武器不是劍也不是槍？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7zp8FhiiI
他的長劍距離我的胸口尚有一點點距離，但他持劍的手已經停下。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANuk1aTOVy
因為我的小刀已經貼上了他的脖子，只要稍一用力，在他能刺出長劍之前就會被殺。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvEjq3ln2a
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTylLiQubq
「你早猜到了我的護手是活動式的？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZHxDXTULr
「不。不過我還不會因為你不用上臂擋劍，就以為那邊沒防護。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1qSPCdRyG
至於剛才是我主動拋劍給你的。這距離用長劍還不如用短刀，你想要就拿去。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ43SMH0gUwS
「……好吧，投降，投降。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dMQY20aUA
他乾脆地拋下了鎗劍。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpA6WhorNT
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv2BC1Ongi9
我邊監視著奧契多，邊用腳挑起長劍，反手握住劍柄。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthEWQT83Ns
他舉高雙手站定不動，似乎完全不打算反抗的樣子。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8xgGPfwKf
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWA41Q3ZPc
「……跟我回去飯店。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QPpKdZ4up
「讓我確認一下。你們沒打算要我的命吧？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbuoiVHwKY
「只要你聽話的話。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0VOpNJ65z
我雙眼盯緊他的手腳，雙手掏出繩索鎖住他的雙手。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjKrq6k01x
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOM7wCdAZPT
「……我袖子裡還有把短刀，打算在你想殺人時彈出來拚命的。你不嫌棄就拿去吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKFs2xjyzj
「……你袖子裡塞那麼多東西不嫌重嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CfrBdqvAn
「想要命就不能嫌重。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUL84DYnbe
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFDGKSrQ2H
我翻出他藏著的短刀，不過沒有收起而是直接塞進他腰包。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXLaf24qTs
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5b1mJf9QJB
「說實話，你要是敢拚命，說不定能跟我拚個同歸於盡。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY79012sJi9
「拚掉你的命能得多少錢？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneIjbR4ZOb
……對了，我忘記了他是個傭兵。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWykVWPtT9
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNphlfDms6b
「我的命一文不值。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJRCWNDL8M
「那還是給你帶回去的好。小子，我不殺我而是活捉我，也就是我有利用價值吧？說不定跟你回去還能多賺一筆呢。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7tBo9de2Sd
「……你還打算在帝國手裡撈錢嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXVdGS6OCb
「廢話。不是說了芬納家還沒付我的酬勞嗎？不肯付，我就賣了他們換錢。我可是很心安理得的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMzXDIS1E7
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ss5uxUf8C
……傭兵真是不得了的職業啊。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkgeC9oGEF
「順帶一提，小子，跟你的雇主說，只要錢夠了我就會辦事。只收現金，除此之外別無它法。嚴刑拷問也好，威脅軟求也好，別想我溜出什麼有用的東西。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvVLMlCxYI
「……我沒有雇主。你還是自己親口說吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFC7ua8doM
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwbKquCKYW
他臉上表情變了一變。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjXfZFRwsn
「沒有雇主？你不是傭兵，也不是王國僱員？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ159oxS8ndY
「都不是。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kLFWHulgC
「跟芬納家有仇怨嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhsB5LsGeJ
「說不上有。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02xD7LoJlw
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaKrZLyx3L
奧契多像是看到鬼似的瞪大眼睛。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgYD2CJ15t
「那你為何跟我拚命？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJ5nK3L1Cg
「……說不上來。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQu6RGr8od
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5mBwVUt2w
老實說，我幫助王國一方是因為艾薇亞。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VJRj7IOLt
但艾薇亞一沒有要求我幫忙，二就算我不冒險追擊，也沒人會怪我。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhUolvWOc2
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIQT8CdtkKu
「難怪我打不過你，你這瘋子。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Nf0l9u5JU
「你比較瘋，為了錢什麼都能幹。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBxsSexZ0Q
「我好歹是為了錢，你呢？什麼都不在乎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufe7pKuFue
「……還是有東西在乎的。你就當是為了在女人面前有面子好了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmk2kMWk8F
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3mrGj66OS
但那不是艾薇亞。她本來就不介意這種事。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCvOoEdfoh
奧契多聽到了之後像是完全釋疑了，伸手拍拍我的肩膀，說著I know that feel。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5owmksbzFX
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiMljXOMHIa
＊ ＊ ＊546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6zPSb0Ne5
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJITDVKyrYj
蕾蒂雅跟奧契多在房裡談了好一會才出來。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4GAPGt576
他出來的時候已經解了繩結，一臉輕鬆的樣子。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBuc72jdX2
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniyUztSjpX
「她要你幹什麼了？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjUZLT4PA8
我忍不住好奇問道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gZmRPgYti
「原來只是要回去演戲，把芬納家的人引到這兒來讓你們一網打盡。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31Ve30QhiZ
我還以為是什麼刀山火海的苦工呢，原來只不過是出賣僱主。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TmYFm6DcL
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8rNwZuqBf
「……那，報酬呢？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11lHcDISP4
「我就隨便提了原價兩倍的酬傭，那女孩一口就答應了。王國什麼的果然財大氣粗啊。話說小子，我打算回到芬納家那邊之後，先向他們要本月酬金。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRneuyYDGo4
他很自然地跟我攀談起來。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwIL3O2ygv
只要不跟他牽涉什麼財帛糾葛，當當朋友大概也沒問題吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbT8nf76cjr
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPpgUXBpU6
「好詐啊。出賣別人前還要再敲一筆……別人不給怎麼辦？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwVUZekusC
「那我出賣他們就更心安理得。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUsuprnuIu
「那他們給了呢？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxAK1rWn1v
「你放心，那我也不會良心不安的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hsb2PTBr0
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfOZcfxjgr
他陽光的笑容讓我出了一身冷汗。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wVUaYVsWl
「……那不妨礙你賺錢了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfyWfdhrSs
「喂小子，日後要不要也當傭兵啊？我脫離芬納家之後就很缺跟班了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcnTxfIiX5
「當你的同伴不知道哪天就會被賣，所以免了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrthLb7jwAN
「哈，你還是那麼看得起自己。只不過是提鞋沖水的跟班，還想攀上老子的同伴？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvutwrhWo2d
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml2CKN6Wz6
他爽朗地笑著離開。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8Oeyln25d
撤回前言，還是不要跟他做朋友比較好。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9wR7OKhw8
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Q9KwOvxmv
「小絮君，你說服他幫忙了嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzId1Qcc899
回過頭來，眼前是伊琳諾的綠髮。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIgNh5kVEL
因為她比較矮小的關係我得低頭看她。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMblO3l4fSX
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTafmpiy9T5
「是啊。只要提醒下利益關係，這人就知道該跟誰合作了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYTYGYBUaP
「你口才原來也不錯嘛。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCmGiRBQgJ
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZN1uNTXZw
「嗯哼……說謊，你剛打過架。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsApYNdskA
艾薇亞忽然也冒出來了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2IxwwFHO8
她作勢在我身上嗅著。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppWgdfJj3V
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvY6VMkC9kW
「你的手槍開過火。衣服的焦痕是你的黑焰造成的。雖然沒有傷痕，但身上也有一兩處擦傷的地方。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvO9JqG2pr
這女孩別的不太懂，戰鬥方面倒是很敏感。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUrLGhKhAIh
「……幹嘛要說謊啊，小絮君。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuypLgpPHcn
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwD9CVVUWiz
大概是不想別人擔心吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT92va0R7Ui
不過有人會擔心嗎？我還是不要想好了。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5aI69hV33
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkviCNGrK5
「我沒說謊啊。說服人不一定要靠口才，武器也能代替說話的。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir1GYDtDJV
我笑著辯解。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDyfECffpw
不過似乎不被兩人所接受，兩名女性都皺著眉看我。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVWI1hALtf
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jdx4qI1Q9
「艾薇亞還有一星期就要參與授勳典禮了。你受傷來不了怎麼辦啊？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HHM4gXWCp
「不用擔心，就算我死了她也會把我的屍體拖來的。她難得有機會在我面前神氣一次。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELMh9Ax0dr
「……小絮，我在猜你在想什麼，我能說出來嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lrIlf3jpT
艾薇亞面帶擔心地問道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObsb5S7qOe
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78c0iyB1ns
「不用猜了，我來告訴妳。當時情勢只有我一人才能追上。要是抓不住他，作戰就算失敗了啊。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVO80u4S5dl
「小絮，作戰失敗了對你有影響嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh25UgITfTP
「……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs6T5tI8Gv
她應該想問跟奧契多一樣的問題。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVuxbwPFeG
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKNHOu2rJi
「我會被蕾蒂雅罵……應該吧。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1V606gadi
「小絮君，我也大概猜到了……典禮在即，你想為艾薇亞多添一份功勞？不……還是因為艾薇亞討厭芬納家各種各樣的行為，所以才……？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FseUBUB0u
「我不是這樣想……伊琳諾不開心，其中一個起因是芬納家釋放魔物，所以你想為她出氣？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZHPh5fdVx
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2Aqg85kAh
兩人都猜測我是為了另一人出頭。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOLrsrn2BE
在我看來，兩者都佔一部分吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Nye4RM1jb
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQtkzVOFNC
「我不能看他不爽所以才追他嗎？」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqxtpHWpZ5
「你真的看他不爽就不會跟他閒聊了。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENbvFvbjie
伊琳諾迅捷地揭破了我。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljQfPjGk0E
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln9AiKybXd
「好吧，妳們都猜對了一些……」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzrOYA9hgTx
「不准再這樣！」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62RfaGVbAa
沒等我說完，艾薇亞就對我喝道。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPPoqaYiw2
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vWXKNLCXH
「沒錯。為了一些錦上添花的事冒險不值得。」546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GPjBkmP7b
伊琳諾也在幫嘴。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU7CC8wdt9
546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeDaZrTJCA
大概我是認為，自己的命比這點錦上添花的事更不值錢吧。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7wvDcoN3w
因為別人的一句話，甚至都不用請求，我就去為此拚命。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0huXOLMaUb
甚至都沒去打算討別人的歡心。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW7629VjVq
說不定真如那個傭兵所說，我是瘋子。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARrwfUB00D
明明我覺得自己大部分時候還是比較正常的。546Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDyAwoI898
