Otaku Prayer

"It's only a dangerous species now, and I don't bother to farm monsters anymore. It's too troublesome, so I will leave monsters to the prayers in the future. I won't do this kind of hard work."

"...As expected of my lazy apprentice, this reason makes me speechless," Scatha laughed, and the scarlet spear in his hand played a few shots, just stood there indifferently, Scathach suddenly had the aura of a master. Although he was indeed a master, Mu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but look sideways.

"boom--!"

The body turned into an afterimage, and when the red light flashed across, there was only a bang, and the dangerous species in front of him turned into a corpse and fell to the ground. In less than a second, Scarha Then she put away her spear and walked back. This chic and handsome spike made the corners of her mouth curl up involuntarily.

"Okay master, no matter how handsome you are, I won't learn your skills." Seeing this scene, Mu Xiaoxiao giggled, turned around and walked away.

"...What an unpleasant apprentice," Skaha couldn't help chuckling, and followed, the backs of the two gradually drifted away, leaving only one who was easily killed instantly. The corpses of the dangerous species fell silently on the ground.

Along the way, Mu Xiaoxiao and the two encountered many dangerous species, but they were just scum in front of Scarha. Soon, they caught up with the little emperor. I don't know if the timing was too coincidental. At this time, the little emperor could hardly hold on any longer, and was still being chased by a dangerous species.

"boom--!"

The little emperor who was panting and fell to the ground raised his head, and what he saw was the dangerous corpse that fell in response. After a slight pause, he saw a person wearing a black robe with his face hidden under a hood. And another woman holding a scarlet spear.

"You...you..."

"It's really dangerous. If we hadn't arrived in time, your life might be gone," Mu Xiaoxiao put on a black robe for camouflage before appearing again, and laughed. Anyone of those petitioners could die. Only the two daughters of Bellubert, Hamazura Shishang and the little emperor could not die.

"It was you who saved me? Thank you very much. In return, when I return to the imperial capital..."

"There is no need to pay back, His Majesty the Emperor, after all, you are now a member of the prayer space, helping you, but I just don't want to see a strong man fall like this in the future."

"You, how do you know about the praying space? Wait..." The little emperor stared at the words, "Didn't I remind you before that the information about the praying space cannot be shared with others in any way, otherwise it will be obliterated , now what... are you also a petitioner?!"

"No, I'm not a petitioner," Mu Xiaoxiao chuckled in a low voice, "Who am I? To describe it accurately, I am the one who invited you to the prayer space."

"You..." The little emperor's pupils shrank, showing hostility in an instant, and stared at Mu Xiaoxiao, "You are the guy who brought us to the prayer space? Damn it! You brought us to that dangerous place." place, you..."

"Hey, I said it's an invitation, but it's just an invitation. I can't force you to come in. It's just an invitation. It's up to you to accept it or not. Since you have come to the prayer space, it means that you have accepted it voluntarily." Yes, you can't blame me."

"..."

"Besides, why should you be dissatisfied?" Mu Xiaoxiao said slowly, "In the prayer space, you can get something that others will not get for a lifetime, or even forever, whether it is power or life, and I gave you Shouldn't you thank me for such an opportunity?"

"I don't know about power, I just know that place is very dangerous! At least now, I am in danger of being wiped out!" The little emperor said coldly.

"Opportunities are always accompanied by risks. You have to pay as much as you want to get. There is never a free pie in the sky. What are you talking about, Your Majesty the Emperor? Don't forget your identity. These tasks It may be very rare for others, but for you, it is not difficult at all, is it?"

The mysterious black-robed man in front of him is right. For the emperor himself, whether it is Teigu or killing dangerous species, the main task and branch tasks seem to be easily completed. The little emperor also nodded, "Then... ...What is the purpose of your coming here? And what is the purpose of inviting me into that prayer space?"

"Because you are a talented person, it's as simple as that to invite you," Mu Xiaoxiao said with a faint smile, "Also, have I forgotten the purpose of coming here so quickly? I just said that we saved you all the time." life."

"This... that, thank you..." Although I thanked you once, the little emperor still thanked me again. I have to say that the little emperor has a very good personality, but he was deceived by the minister. That's why the empire became like this.

But Mu Xiaoxiao won't waste her saliva talking about the big truths with him, and then let him see the minister's true face. It's too troublesome. Don't forget that the little emperor is his own petitioner now, and there is a more convenient way.

"Your Majesty, what do you think of the current empire?"

"Empire?" The little emperor was stunned for a moment, "The current empire is smooth and prosperous. Although there are some rebels who betrayed the empire and foreign nationalities are making troubles everywhere, they are just small troubles and cannot shake the empire at all. Powerful, these are what the minister told me."

"Then, is His Majesty willing to let His Majesty give up this prosperous empire?"

"What do you mean by that?" The little emperor frowned. If others heard this, they would definitely kill him. Isn't this saying in disguise that you gave up the emperor's position to others?

"Has your Majesty forgotten? Now you are a petitioner and cannot stay in this world for too long. When the mission is over and you have to leave this world, what will you do then?"

"This......"

Seeing the little emperor frowning, Mu Xiaoxiao smiled lightly. It was up to him to decide whether to leave this world after the mission was over, and he could stay if he let the little emperor stay. Asking this question was just to bring out another topic. "Your Majesty, what do you think is the most important thing to maintain a powerful empire?"

"The most important thing to maintain a strong empire? Should it be power?"

"That's right, it's power. As long as you have strong power, you can make the empire stand upright. Everything else is false, but strength is real." Mu Xiaoxiao nodded with satisfaction, "Your Majesty should understand, right? As long as you have strong power, even if the thousand-year empire is destroyed, you can rebuild it."

"No, it should be said that as long as Bi Xia has strong power, the empire will not be destroyed!"

"You always say that the empire is destroyed. Now that the empire is so strong, and there are Esdes and the ministers, how could it be..."

"Your Majesty, you are so naive. It is the safest thing to keep your strength in your own hands forever. What if one day, Esdes betrayed His Majesty, and the minister also betrayed His Majesty?"

"This is impossible! How could Minister Ernest betray..."

"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Your majesty cannot be [-]% sure about anything. Even if you are [-]% sure that the ministers will not betray, what if they are killed? What if the ministers are killed? What if an assassin comes to assassinate your majesty?" What to do? For this, wouldn’t it be more perfect to add an extra layer of insurance?”

"What insurance?"

"Strength insurance, not relying on the strength of others, but relying on one's own strength, holding the strength in one's own hands, even if there is such a day, His Majesty will not be afraid at all, right?" Mu Xiaoxiao said, with the corner of his mouth raised , "And the praying space can give His Majesty such an insurance!"

"...Is that so, power?" The little emperor, who was dismissive of power at first, suddenly changed his eyes, and became eager for power, "You are right, it seems that I Sure enough, you should also gain strength."

The moment the little emperor decided to pursue power, he also felt a sense of trust in Mu Xiaoxiao.

528 Reunion with Estes

That's right, the purpose of Mu Xiaoxiao's words is to make the little emperor feel stronger. Even if someone who doesn't pursue him gives him great power, it's useless. Mu Xiaoxiao naturally doesn't want to cultivate such a thug, so First, find a way to make the little emperor have the idea of ​​pursuing power.

Seeing that the little emperor in front of him has changed his mind, Mu Xiaoxiao showed a perfect smile, "However, there is one more thing to remind His Majesty, since you have become a petitioner, in the prayer space, trust This word is the last thing to think about, because there is no trust here, only the weak and the strong."

"Otherwise, if you have such a naive idea, you will definitely be sold and pay back the money."

Looking at Mu Xiaoxiao who has been fooling the little emperor from the very beginning, Skaha wanted to laugh, but he held back and watched all this quietly.

"I've taken note of your advice..." The little emperor was not that naive, and nodded seriously, "That... I don't know Your Excellency's name yet."

"You can just call me Passerby A," Mu Xiaoxiao smiled, obviously not wanting to reveal her name, and motioned to Skaha beside her, "This is Passerby B."

"..."

"..."

Seeing that Mu Xiaoxiao didn't want to reveal her real name, the little emperor had no choice but to say, "Then passer-by A, what are you going to do next?"

"Send you back to the palace."

"Thank you...why do you help me like this?"

"There is no reason, I think that's all," Mu Xiaoxiao shrugged, "or you are a potential stock, and your future achievements are not low, so I helped you." Hamazura Shiage and the little emperor are both potential stocks , and Hamazura Shiage had Bei Rubert and the others watching over there, and Mu Xiaoxiao was also very relieved.

"Help me like this, and in return, after returning to the imperial capital, I will also make you a high-ranking official, how about it?"

"That's unnecessary. I still have my own things to do. After sending you to the imperial capital, I..."

"Da da da--"

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly heard a loud sound of hoofbeats. Just as Mu Xiaoxiao turned her head, she saw a familiar figure riding a horse charging towards her, her pupils shrank.

"Esdeath?!"

——————————————————————————————————————

Estes led her troops out of the city to look for the little emperor. Whether they could find it or not, at least they had to find some clues. After the troops dispersed to look for the emperor, she didn't know if it was a coincidence, but she found the little emperor's whereabouts very quickly. However, beside the emperor, there were actually two strangers.

One of them was a man in black robe who seemed to be of unknown origin.

Of course it's not surprising, in Estes' understanding, His Majesty must have been taken away by someone, and seeing such a scene now, everyone would think that the man in black robe was the guy who took His Majesty away, Ace Des was no exception, and instantly locked his eyes on the man in black.

It's just that for some reason, the guy who couldn't see his face clearly and was covered in a black robe gave her a vaguely familiar feeling.

"His Majesty!"

"General Estes? Have you come to see me?" The little emperor's eyes lit up, "Just in time..."

Before he finished speaking, Esdesi's figure moved and rushed towards Mu Xiaoxiao suddenly. He swung the saber in his hand to take him down, but Mu Xiaoxiao hadn't reacted yet. .

He didn't come back for more than half a year, he didn't expect to meet his long-lost acquaintance, Estes, here by such a coincidence!Fortunately, I was wearing a black robe, which hid my whole body in the robe. Estes didn't discover his identity, but Mu Xiaoxiao, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, hadn't reacted yet. Si rushed towards himself.

It came to him in the blink of an eye, so that he didn't even have time to take out the props.

"boom--!"

A figure stood in front of him in an instant, it was Skaha, and Skaha's scarlet spear blocked Esdeth's attack, and also blocked her attack route, and the spear that pierced through the death flight easily blocked the general knife, With a faint smile on his face, Estes noticed the woman and his eyes froze slightly.

"Who are you?!" Estes took a few steps back, and just as he asked, he laughed, "I'm so stupid, you should also be one of the sinners who kidnapped His Majesty, right? It seems that your strength seems to be very strong. Strong, exactly..."

"Wait, General Estes, this is a misunderstanding. These two people are not the ones who kidnapped me," the little emperor said hastily, "You misunderstood them, they just want to send me to the imperial capital."

No, I did kidnap you, Mu Xiaoxiao complained inwardly.

"Misunderstanding? Since this is a misunderstanding, why did His Majesty appear in such a place? Who brought His Majesty here?" Estes raised his eyebrows and asked.

"This..." The matter of the prayer space could not be said, which made the little emperor choke for a while, not knowing how to explain it. Seeing his longing for Ai Ai, Esdes raised his hand again. saber.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will save you," Esdes glanced at Mu Xiaoxiao in the black robe, and then put it on Skaha's body, "Even if it was really a misunderstanding, when you encounter such a A strong man, I can't help but want to fight..."

"Master, thank you just now," Mu Xiaoxiao took a step back, "Maybe I need your help now..."

"No way, who made you so lazy as an apprentice? Since you don't want to learn my skills, you can only let me protect you," Skaha smiled slightly, looking at Esther standing opposite him Si, holding a long gun, turned into an afterimage and rushed over.

"boom--"

"Bang bang bang-!"

"Hiss..." I just used the saber to compete with this strange woman in melee combat skills, but after meeting, Esdesh's pupils shrank, and he felt a rush of The heavy pressure, the strength of this strange woman in front of her... actually made her unable to breathe?

"It's so strong..." Estes experienced this feeling for the first time, a trace of sweat oozed from her forehead. After fighting for so many years, it was the first time someone put such a lot of pressure on her. Especially the relaxed look of the woman in front of her, who hasn't used her full strength yet?

While resisting Scathach's spear reluctantly, Esdes showed a strong fighting intent on her face, but no matter how high the fighting intent was, there was no way for her to fight against Scathach, so she persisted for a while After that, he finally used Teigu, and with a wave of his hand, countless layers of ice emerged from under his feet, spreading towards Skaha.

"Kakaka-"

A new round of battle has begun. Facing the endlessly spreading ice, Scathach looked at it calmly, as if he didn't care much. The spreading ice was shattered by her with a single shot, and rushed towards Estes.

"Boom boom boom!"

"That's... so powerful," the little emperor was stunned, "He was able to fight General Esdess evenly..."

There is no winner there, obviously suppressing Esdesi, okay?And Scarha didn't use all his strength, if his real name was liberated... Mu Xiaoxiao shook his head, watching the scene of the battle over there, his expression suddenly paused, I don't know if it was an illusion, and Scarha Estes, who was fighting, seemed to be suddenly distracted?

At this time, Estes was indeed distracted. Generally, when encountering such a strong enemy, even when he was suppressed by a terrifying and powerful enemy after using the Essence of Demons, he would definitely fight excitedly for [-] rounds. How? Possible distractions?However, she is always absent-minded now.

When fighting, his eyes can't help but sweep towards the black-robed man, as if there is something that attracts him, or something that he pursues, which makes Esdesh, who was already suppressed, even more Embarrassed.

Who the hell is that person?I don't know if it's curiosity or some other reason, Esdeth suddenly had an idea, wanting to see the true face of the man in black robe, this idea can't be restrained as soon as it appears, it keeps rising like a magic barrier, Scathach seemed to see Esdeth's thoughts.

The figure kept blocking her, blocking all the way she wanted to get close to Mu Xiaoxiao. Estes wanted to get close to the man in black, but he couldn't do it. The woman in front of her was not only powerful, but also an eyesore. Sides gritted his teeth secretly, full of depression in his heart.

Esdes, who was more and more entangled in thinking, was considering whether to use his own trick, when suddenly Skaha showed a slight flaw, which made Esdes's eyes light up, good opportunity!With a turn of his body, he rushed towards Mu Xiaoxiao with a long sword turned into ice in his hand. The speed of this transformation made him dumbfounded.

"Damn! Master?" Mu Xiaoxiao had absolute trust in Scarha, but he never expected that Scarha would let Estes rush over!

What does this woman seem to have to do with Xiaoxiao?It feels quite interesting, Scatha thought, so she deliberately exposed a flaw to let her succeed. Of course, this is the case where she can be sure that Esdeth will not hurt Xiao Xiao for the time being.
