Reborn NPC: I'm really not the protagonist!

This Fina girl obviously has no self-awareness and has no idea of ​​how important she is to the other members of the group... Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to be so leisurely outside for so long before coming back.

But fortunately, I didn't really go on a trip, but brought someone back with me. However, this person...

To be honest, Hill was a little afraid that if the two of them showed up at the same time, it would cause Knimu to have too much emotional ups and downs and cause her to have some mental problems...

"How did you come back to life?"

"Didn't I already say that the orcs wanted to..."

"No, you're dead."

"what?"

"You were originally dead, but you were inspired by God. He resurrected you and told you that you would be the one to change the chaos in the kingdom and bring stability to the people."

"What nonsense are you talking about..."

"And just when you were resurrected, a vision appeared in the sky. The gods gathered in the Free City and gave an oracle for the birth of the king. At the same time, the foxes by the Tianse Lake spoke human language at night..."

"Wait wait wait, what are you talking about?"

On the busy streets of the Liberty City, several figures walking quickly towards the center suddenly stopped. Fina looked at Hill with a puzzled expression, somewhat helpless, and asked with a roll of her eyes in annoyance.

"Nothing..." Hill turned his head away silently, thought for a moment, and looked back: "Anyway, that's how you were resurrected..."

"........."

Fina looked at Hill, whose eyes were a little vague, for a long time. Finally, she asked tentatively: "Then, wait, I will also say the same thing to Knimu...?"

"...?"

Hill was stunned for a moment, then looked surprised, staring at Fina as if he had seen a ghost, his expression seemed to say "Are you serious?"

No, doesn't this guy always like to gossip and give people ideas? Why does it feel like my head is stuck in the door when it comes to me?

Tell this reason to Kneem? To make her angry?

Could it be that Fina had been cheating her before! ?

But after a moment of silence, she twitched her lips kindly and replied, "No, you just said that you rushed here immediately after waking up, and met her sister on the way, so it took some time to rescue her."

"I see...."

Fina frowned slightly, seeming a little conflicted, and then they started walking again. After a while, they arrived in front of the central building of the Free City.

This is an extremely magnificent building. Although it has not yet reached the level of a palace, it is almost there. After several months of development, the vitality of the entire city has caused every building here to change rapidly.

Several people looked up at the building and then walked in.

But as soon as she entered the door, Fina stopped again.

"What's wrong?" Hill raised his eyebrows, looking at Fina who suddenly seemed a little hesitant with some confusion.

"Uh...it's just the feeling..." Fina frowned slightly, and even her own tone sounded a little confused.

Perhaps it was because she was a believer in the guardian god that she had an inexplicable survival instinct, so that she could always sense a hint of danger, and at this moment, she... felt it!

"I... shouldn't die, right?" She looked at Hill silently, with a somewhat awkward expression that made people laugh and cry.

"...You've died once before anyway," Hill paused, then took another step forward in a bad mood: "What are you afraid of?"

“………” Fina was silent for a while.

"that...."

Suddenly, Emily, who had been silent, raised her hand weakly, causing them to stop and look over at the same time.

"Knimu...my sister..." Emily looked at the two people with strange expressions and was a little curious: "Is she very dependent on Lady Fina? Or is her relationship with Lady Fina...unusual?"

"No," Fina immediately shook her head, looked at Emily, and rubbed her nose a little embarrassedly: "It's because of you... After I recognized her as your relative, I always treated her as my own."

"Ah! I...that..." Emily was startled when she heard it. She quickly looked away and her ears turned red instantly.

Seeing that the other party seemed to have no questions and that she seemed to be ready, Fina took a deep breath and looked at Hill: "Let's go in."

As she spoke, she was about to take another step.

"Wait a minute!"

However, at this moment, Hill's voice suddenly sounded again.

Seeing Fina stop again, she thought about it for a long time, and suddenly conjured up a long sword and a shield, and handed them to Fina. At the same time, she also silently placed her hand on the hilt of the sword of annihilation at her waist...

"What's wrong?" Fina frowned immediately and became alert: "Is there an enemy?"

"No, it's just..." Hill shook his head and glanced at Emily beside him. Still feeling that it was not safe enough, he took out the healing potion from his waist and handed it to Fina: "Just take it, for self-defense..."

Well... nothing else. She originally felt it was quite safe, but suddenly she felt it wasn't that safe, so she did it just in case.

Thinking of this, she silently stood a few steps away from Fina to avoid being splashed with blood later...

It's not that she didn't want to remind Fina, but given Knimu's current condition...to be honest, she really wasn't sure what would happen.

Over the past few months, Knimu has been desperately maintaining the Shield of Freedom, never stopping for a moment, as if she would be caught up by something if she stopped. It was a desperate effort without regard for her life.

So if Knimu in this state sees Fina and her sister... and there is something unclear between her sister and Fina...

From a rational point of view, Hill thought it would be best for him to get out of this situation and not get involved, but...

She felt that no one in the world would miss such a good show. It was indeed the most interesting to watch Fina being beaten. Moreover, according to her current fighting power, she should be able to save Fina before she was beaten to pieces...

So she kindly prepared some self-defense items for Fina, and also kindly concealed Knimu's mental state at the time...

"........."

Fina looked at the sword, shield and potion in her hands, raised her eyes silently, took a deep breath, and the three of them walked up the stairs one after another...

"No! I've already said it! We only intend to maintain a military alliance with your empire. The Shield of Freedom and the Free Territory will be independent!"

"Mr. Knimu, how can such a good thing happen? You have accepted the protection of the Empire and used the alliance with the Empire to deter foreign enemies, but you do not intend to accept the Empire's deployment. Aren't you thinking too well?"

"We have already promised to send troops to assist the Empire when it needs it. This is what we originally agreed upon!"

"Those Chosen Ones? The Empire has them too! We didn't know that the Chosen Ones could participate in military operations..."

"That's your business. The Empire's Chosen Ones have not yet reached a certain size, and what the Shield of Liberty has promised you is not a small amount."

"In that case... then we can only consider terminating our alliance with your forces and independently make the next plan for the ownership of the Free Territory..."

"you!"

The three of them were going upstairs. They were only halfway up when the sound of an intense conversation in the room came through the wooden door and into their ears in a dull voice.

Fina was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hill in surprise: "This voice sounds quite like Knimu's."

"...It's Knimu..." Hill turned his head away silently and answered indifferently.

She understood Fina's surprise. After all, who would have thought that the spoiled guy would have a chance to talk about serious matters...

"Really?" Fina seemed very surprised.

That guy finally grew up...

She quickly walked past Hill, took a few steps forward, and pushed the door open.

"squeak--"

"........."

The next moment, it seemed that the whole building fell into silence.

Knimu inside seemed to be arguing with a man, her expression was somewhat anxious and angry, while the man had no expression on his face.

The two of them turned their heads together, and then their pupils suddenly contracted, their brains suddenly shut down, and the words condensed in their throats...

Hill and Emily followed closely behind and came to the door silently.

"........."

"I...."

Knimu stared at the person who came. After an unknown amount of time, she uttered a word with trembling lips, and then suddenly stood up: "I don't care!"

After saying that, she suddenly ran out the door, pushed away Fina who opened her arms to hug her, and went downstairs "thump thump thump", and seemed to wipe her eyes with her arm...

"........."

"this...."

There was another silence, and the man was completely confused.

He had never encountered such a thing in a diplomatic dialogue, where someone suddenly barged in, and then the person he was negotiating with suddenly quit.

But....this seems to prove something indirectly.

For example....it seems that the Shield of Liberty is still short of manpower, and there is not even a guard at the door. Although the country is very optimistic about the prospects of this force, but...it seems that he can make more money from these people for the sake of the empire...

Thinking of this, he sat down quietly in his chair again, closed his eyes and waited for the new person to contact him.

Seeing this, Fina thought about it and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Hill.

"Are you from our Freedom Shield?" Hill asked silently, with the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

This attitude of cleaning up other people's messes without any discrimination has not changed at all.

"Go away." She pushed Fina unhappily, glanced at the two of them, and then slowly closed the door.

“Squeak—bang!”

"........."

Fina was frustrated and stood there at a loss. Finally, she looked at Emily awkwardly: "Uh... Anyway, let's find you a place to live first."

It seems that no one recognizes her as the leader anymore. A group of former members left her alone and went about their own business. To be honest, I feel a little embarrassed.

"Hehe~" Emily was stunned for a moment, then suddenly she covered her lips and chuckled. Her laughter became louder and louder, making Fina a little dazed.

"I think..." She finally stopped laughing after an unknown amount of time, but her eyes were still curved as she looked at Fina: "Lady Fina should have more important things to do now~"

"what?"

"Apply to join the Freedom Shield~"

"........."

In the meeting room...

The empire's envoy closed his eyes for a long time. When he opened them again, he found that the girl who had been standing at the door had sat down opposite him. At this moment, she was concentrating and leisurely fiddling with the decorations on the table, and seemed to have not noticed that he had looked at him.

Is this the new "opponent"...?

He couldn't help but curl his lips, a smile forming in his heart.

Are there only women in the Freedom Shield? Each one younger than the other?

Looks like another meaningless negotiation...

But as a diplomat, he must win victory for his country on his own battlefield, so...even if his opponent is just a little girl, he will never show mercy.

Let's start from the opening...

Diplomatic momentum is very important. An initiative that catches the other party off guard may even directly affect the final outcome.

Thinking of this, he immediately raised his hand and wanted to cough to attract the other person's attention.

"Mr. Special Envoy from the Empire, coffee will be delivered soon. You can sleep for a while..."

However, at this moment, the person sitting opposite him suddenly spoke, without even raising his eyes, still concentrating on fiddling with the things on the table.

"Or we can just start," the other party's voice was so light that the man had to hold his breath to hear it clearly: "Next, I will talk to you about the relationship between the Free Territory and the Empire. You can call me..."

"Snapped!"

The decoration she was fiddling with was suddenly pressed on the table. The girl slowly raised her head and said, "Hill."

"Also....you....can start breathing."
