Reborn NPC: I'm really not the protagonist!

"........."

In the main building, in the dead silence, Fina looked at Knimu who suddenly stopped and breathed a sigh of relief.

At a time like this, saying something completely irrelevant really works!

Knimu must be confused now, so we should take advantage of this moment...by the way, why is this ice so tight?

“Really…?”

Just as she was trying to pull her legs out, Knimu's faint voice floated over.

Fina was startled, and when she looked up, she met a pair of uneasy eyes...

"........."

The two pairs of eyes looked at each other for a long time. Fina was stunned and a little confused.

This guy...why did he suddenly become so uneasy? Could it be...

That's it!

She was stunned and immediately thought of something.

I guess I don’t know how to respond!

If you think about it carefully, if Hill suddenly said that he liked her, she would be so embarrassed that she wouldn't know what to do!

I guess Knimu is in the same situation now. She doesn't know how to ease the embarrassment between the two of them. After all, her best friend suddenly said that she likes her. It's really...

Thinking of this, Fina smiled awkwardly and took the initiative to speak: "When I say I like you, of course I mean..."

"Dong dong!"

The words had barely been spoken when the survival instinct began to sound the alarm again.

"What is it?" When he looked up again, Knimu was already very close to him, blinking her eyes, as if she knew nothing.

"........."

Fina was silent.

You know, her so-called survival instinct is not metaphysics, but her real strength, the power she is born with.

It was this power that allowed her to grow rapidly when she decided to become a mercenary.

But now....her survival instinct still makes her extremely uneasy...

"Of course..." So, she chose to trust her instinct without hesitation and looked at Knimu expressionlessly: "Of course I really like him..."

"How much do you like her?" Knimu still blinked, staring at Fina eagerly, and asked seriously: "Compared to your sister?"

"........."

Fina was sweating profusely, with beads of sweat oozing out of her forehead like raindrops: "This... should be different..."

"Hmm..." Just as the words fell, Knimu's muffled groan was heard, followed by the sudden rise of ice crystals.

Fina shuddered all over and quickly laughed: "Haha, just kidding, of course I like you more."

"...Then say it again." Knimu was silent, suddenly pouted and spoke softly.

"What?" Fina was stunned.

However, what responded to her was an even more bone-chilling coldness.

She immediately adjusted her attitude and said, "I..."

As soon as I blurted out "I", everything seemed to stop, the ice stopped spreading, and even the air became quiet.

"............" Knimu stared at Fina quietly without saying a word.

And Fina... was also stunned.

What's going on....Why do I suddenly feel....a little difficult to talk about...

So what happened?

Everything happened so fast that she had no time to think.

But right now, it doesn't seem like the time to think.

Sweat beads fell down, looking at Knimu's expectant eyes, biting her lips tightly due to nervousness, and she swallowed subconsciously.

Why does it feel... a little heavy...

"I..." Fina took a deep breath. For some reason, she suddenly felt an indescribable emotion, which made her voice heavier: "I... like you."

"thump!!"

Suddenly, the ice and snow dissipated, and the person in front of her suddenly threw herself into her arms, causing Fina to stagger.

"I like the captain too, I like him very much..." Knimu's voice was muffled, but it made Fina's eyes widen in disbelief.

It wasn't because of what Knimu said, "like".

In fact, Knimu had often said that he liked her and had described how much he liked her more than once. She found it funny when she thought of this guy using his hands and feet to make a big letter and saying that he "liked the captain so much."

However, this time, the other party used a tone that he had never used before, a tone of fear and finally relief, and acted coquettishly in her arms.

So Fina was stunned.

As expected...

She understood again.

It seems that my death was too much of a blow to this girl.

I didn't expect Knimu to be so dependent on me. Maybe it was because the shock in such a short period of time was too great, so this guy couldn't tell whether she was still the same person, so he wanted to know whether I still liked the former members...

I have to find a way to compensate for it...

"Let's go watch Hill and the others compete?" Thinking of this, Fina rubbed Knimu's head and smiled gently.

"Hmm..." Knimu nodded, but still buried her head in her arms and refused to lift it up.

Fina had no choice but to hold Knimu and walk towards the Free Arena...

Soon, the two arrived at the arena.

As one of the most central buildings in the entire Liberty City, this place is bustling with people as usual.

Hill and Qiongnu had finished their competition by this time.

Neither of them showed any real skills, they just slashed at each other with wooden swords, using the most basic moves.

Hill would naturally not kill Qiongnu. If she really wanted to, she would never let him die in the Free City. If he died in the city, wouldn't it be related to her, right?

For Qiongnu, this competition was thrilling.

Without using his real abilities, Hill naturally couldn't be his opponent; the level gap was obvious.

So on the one hand he needs to practice with Hill as much as possible and not let Hill feel that he is letting her down. He needs to appear to be trying his best. On the other hand he cannot win, so he has to find a way to teach this guy the basic moves!

These basic moves do not refer to combat skills, but are more basic, such as slashing, stabbing, etc., which Hill has never learned.

Without using those fancy skills, Hill's attack was just like that of any ordinary person, just like swinging a wooden stick meaninglessly over and over again.

And Qiongnu wanted to find a way to let the other party understand these skills on their own.

It's not that he wants to teach, it's mainly because he has finally understood that if he treats this guy better, he might get the favor of the Father God...

Fortunately, Hill's comprehension is not bad. It is better to say that he just has not systematically learned how to fight. Since he already has fighting skills, learning these basic moves is as easy as asking a doctor to understand why 1+1 equals 2.

Therefore, both of them can be said to have gained a lot from this competition.

The two were resting at this time, talking about the duties and beliefs of the church of the God of War and Fire, while Emily listened quietly on the side.

Until Fina and Knimu approached...

"Are you done sparring?"

"........"

Sometimes, Hill really admired Fina. She could pretend nothing happened even though there was someone hanging on her body. She went up to ask...

"Hmm..." She raised her eyebrows and looked at Fina and Knimu, a little surprised.

This guy...is not dead...

"What a pity..." However, facing Hill's surprised and inquiring eyes, Fina still ignored it and just sighed.

"What's wrong?" Hill asked curiously.

"No..." Fina shook her head and scratched her nose, "It's just... I haven't fought for a long time, I want to move around..."

"Snapped!"

"Ah, if Lady Fina wants to find a sparring partner..."

As soon as she finished speaking, suddenly, there was a sound of clapping, followed by words with a hint of joy.

Hill and Fina paused at the same time, then turned their heads away at the same time.

They saw that Emily had come to the two of them without them knowing when. Her eyes were curved into crescents, her hands were clasped together, and she was looking at them with a smile on her face.

She squinted her eyes and smiled, her peripheral vision seemed to fall on Fina, and then she spoke faintly:

"Actually, I do know a little bit about fighting skills~"

“Yes, is that so…”

But for some reason, such a gentle voice made Fina shiver inexplicably.
