Players' NPC boss

Blaze looked at the reflection in the Lake of Moon Tears and slowly raised his hands to cover his face.

Although Audrey said nothing and looked smiling, Blazer didn't have any lucky thoughts. Audrey would definitely be able to see Amaterasu.

If this continues, he won't be regarded as a pervert with evil intentions...

To put it another way, if there was a person carrying someone who looked exactly like him, he would also think that person was a bit perverted. Anyway, if he knew about this, he would subconsciously distance himself and become horrified.

Blaze opened his mouth and held it in for a long time to come up with a universal solution.

"It's a long story..."

"We haven't seen each other for only 22 days, 6 hours and 14 minutes. How long can what happened inside be?" Audrey kept leaning forward and looked directly at Blaze in the reflection in the Lake of Moon Tears as she spoke.

Blaze could feel that Audrey's gaze remained on Amaterasu's face.

"...To be precise, it happened in about a day."

"In other words, there are 21 more cases like this?" Audrey raised her beautiful eyebrows and moved her gaze from Amaterasu's face to Blazer's face.

At this moment, Blazer felt that Audrey's eyes were like a bright razor, flying between Audrey's fingers, shaving the hair on his face. Audrey's technique was extremely graceful, as if she had measured his face inch by inch with her fingers. She didn't hurt the skin at all, but the hair was shaved clean, making her face feel cool.

Chicken was watching from the side, smiling mischievously. When he saw Blaze looking over, he immediately raised his wings and volunteered to pick up the materials dropped by the Moon-eating Pike.

Usually this guy is not so diligent.

"It's not that bad."

Blaze scratched his head, scratched his neck, and finally changed the subject quite abruptly and explained Amaterasu's matter clearly. After all, he didn't do anything shameful, he just looked a little shameful on the surface.

Blazer actually didn't know much about Amaterasu. He didn't even know why Amaterasu didn't like his face.

"Because she looked like she was going to die, so you went up?" Audrey stretched out her hand, gently pinched Blaze's nose and shook it.

"You...that's why you get caught up in strange things."

That [strange thing] is the noble sun goddess, and she looks exactly like you. Blaze muttered something in his mind, but didn't dare to say it out loud.

Seeing Blaze's silence, Audrey sighed helplessly. She knew that Blaze was relatively passive, so she didn't know how to explain this situation, which was like being forcibly possessed by a female ghost.

She used to think this was a nice place, but when someone got there first, she was very upset.

"Really..." After Audrey pinched Blaze's nose a little harder, she took a few steps back and waved to Blaze.

"Don't look like that, I'm not angry."

Blaze breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his nose and followed Audrey into the shade of the trees next to Moon Tears Lake.

"Have you seen Marika too?" Audrey said suddenly.

"I've seen it before. She said it would be embarrassing for me to leave her alone."

"I was robbed of my line." Audrey clicked her tongue. This was supposed to be a vulgar syllable, but with the ability of the [Singer], this syllable was also unusually light and pleasant.

"Let's talk about recent events. You haven't appeared in front of me for a long time, my chief knight."

Audrey's pace quickened a bit, and she hid behind a big tree as if she was angry with Blaze. Blaze could only catch the tip of a strand of silver hair. Even if he took a few more steps forward, he could only catch nothing, and Audrey's laughter came from behind.

This is like a game of chasing each other, and neither of them is in a hurry to decide the outcome, but is leisurely enjoying the process of the game.

"So I'm not here to do my best...well, I really don't have that consciousness. Is there no big trouble in Arcadia?"

"What big trouble could there be? We have strangers here. They are rushing to deliver even a letter, let alone dangerous monsters."

"Don't be polite at this time and lie to me that there is no problem at all."

Blaze ran behind the tree, but Audrey wasn't there, only a pair of sandals. The lush branches above her head swayed, and the naughty silver hair was extremely conspicuous among the leaves.

The queen of Arcadia, the former future countess, just took off her shoes and climbed up the tree, turning the chase into a hide-and-seek.

"What about you? Did you lie to me or hide anything from me?"

"..."

"Ah, it seems there is."

Audrey's head popped up from the leaves with a pop. She hung upside down on the branch, one hand pressing her long skirt, and the other hand pinched Blaze's nose again like punishment.

"I was silent for less than two seconds." Blaze's voice was a little distorted because his nose was pinched, and he also felt really guilty.

If it is [liar], he can pat his chest and say that he did not lie. But Audrey happened to add [Concealment] at the end.

He had kept the story of Herbie's death a secret, so he paused briefly, trying to find the perfect answer. Unfortunately, Audrey was very sharp, and he was caught after a slight pause.

"It's true that he's hiding something, but you can ask Herbie about the specifics."

Blazer threw the question to Herbie without hesitation. Anyway, Herbie was good at coaxing Audrey, so he was not confident enough to talk too much.

"It seems that you are indeed hiding a lot of things."

Audrey disappeared in the leaves with a rustling sound, and Blazer had to climb up along the tree trunk. After Blazer climbed up, he found that Audrey was sitting on a thick branch, and the empty seat next to him was obviously for him to sit.

Blazer sat down honestly, and looked at the silent moonlight shoulder to shoulder with Audrey. After a long time, Audrey slowly spoke.

"Am I too weak, so you chose to hide it from me."

"The strength is enough, mainly because I think your psychology may be fragile in some places. After all, you used to show a forced calm expression from time to time. What if you are calm on the surface, but end up doing something very impulsive?"

Blazer honestly said his thoughts, and Audrey almost fell directly from the branch.

"At this time, you have to, I, ahhhh——"

Audrey covered her face with both hands in distress. In fact, she still enjoyed it. She was the only one who could stand Blazer's overly direct way of speaking.
