Heroes Who Can't Fit into the Team and New Encounters

Turning her head to look at the piles of terrifyingly tall documents in the room, Chloe couldn't help sighing.

The tribute from Huanlan King's Capital is still so annoying, just collecting and counting documents is enough for me.Let's keep working hard... Tonight doesn't need to stay overnight to be considered a success.

Chloe turned away from the window.

At this time, a black shadow appeared from the window, and the evening sun shone on the black shadow, covering Chloe with a slanted shadow.

startled.

Turn around right away.

"who!"

There was no preparation at all, and Chloe never thought that this kind of thing would happen.

If someone stormed this mansion, they must have led troops in from the main entrance, and the guards would send out a signal in advance to let the people inside know.

Appearing from the window, it was so unexpected——

A teenager is carrying a backpack with a sword at his waist.The window frame forms a canvas, and the setting sun and burning clouds become the background.

The boy's whole body was wrapped in the shadow cast by the dusk, and the setting sun cast a beautiful golden light around the edge of the boy's body.

Under the backlight, the boy showed a bright smile.

"Long time no see, Chloe."

"Kel...?"

"Hi."

"Isn't this Kerr! Long time no see!"

Chloe was stunned for a moment, then quickly opened the window, allowing Kerr to step on the window sill and get in.

"Ahaha, how are you doing recently? Are you busy? Oh...pretend I didn't ask."

Halfway through the conversation, Kerr saw the pile of documents on Chloe's desk and obediently shut up.

"Hehehe...do you still need to ask? As always...you sit first, and I'll make you tea."

"Hey, you're welcome, just sit down, I'll do it myself."

Kerr went to the depths of the office first, where there were several dry and upside-down cups on the table, as well as tea caddy that had been opened but not covered.

The light came in from the window just now, it was backlight, Kerr didn't notice the dark circles under Chloe's eyelids.But now he's inside and notices.

"Then thank you."

Chloe collapsed into the big chair behind the big desk, stretched out tiredly, and could hear some crisp sounds from the spine.

You can know how stiff Chloe's body is.

Not long after, the aroma of black tea permeated the room, Kerr found a sugar cube, stirred it into the black tea and melted it.

He took a cup by himself, and put a cup on Chloe's desk.

"Thank you, Kerr. Huh? What happened to your hand?"

Chloe noticed that Kerr's hands were a little unsteady, and there were black blood scabs on the jaws of his hands.

"Ah, well—how should I put it..."

Kerr thought of the Chloe sword in his scabbard, and there was still an indelible gap on the sword, so he could only answer falteringly.

"There's nothing to hide. I've seen wounds like yours on woodcutters. Some people who cut trees will have this when they use too much force. This part of the hand will crack. You just sit here and wait. "

Chloe drank the tea made by Kerr in one gulp, then quickly found a medical kit and sat beside Kerr.Her movements are powerful but delicate, and she seems to be very used to doing this kind of thing.In medical bandaging, gentleness is not necessarily the best answer, only rational and proper handling can ensure the complete recovery of the wounded.

"Hiss—it hurts, it hurts, Chloe, please lighten—"

"That's not okay, your blood scabs are all together, if it's healed in a mess, how can you hold a sword?"

Chloe gently held Kerr's hand with one hand, and with the other hand, he carefully pushed aside the blood scabs, and then carefully aligned and aligned the wounds.Kerr could feel how rough Chloe's small hands were, and they were the hands a grown girl from a commoner family should have.She's a female summoner, and a grown woman who's been through a lot.

After tidying up the wound, wash it with clean water, then tie it with a small white bandage and fix it, and finally wrap it with a larger cotton cloth for medicine.

The whole approach is gentle and careful, but there are also more severe ones.Although Kerr was often seriously injured when he first became a hero, he still couldn't get used to pain.

To be precise, this is not a battlefield, and there is no need to endure it.As a brave man, Kerr must endure all sorrows and pains, and not let the wavering in his heart spread to his face, otherwise his companions and soldiers would be flustered.

In the end, Chloe pulled her hands hard, causing Kerr to hurt, and then a beautiful knot was tied on Kerr's hand.

"Okay, that's about it."

"Thank you, Chloe."

"I find it strange that a swordsman of your level should not know how to treat this kind of wound...Ah, is it possible that you are the young master who always has a healer at home? You came to wander in the chaotic land because you were expelled from the house Is it?"

"Ahaha... let's just treat it like this..."

The last rays of the setting sun walked through the room, and for a few seconds, the faces of the two of them were reflected red by the setting sun.

At that moment, Chloe's golden eyes shone colorfully under the red light of dusk.

It was only for a moment that Kerr's heart seemed to be clogged and he became uncomfortable. But at that moment, when he looked at Chloe's face, he felt that something was wrong with his emotions.

As if... attracted... I have to say, the gray hair of the demons is very suitable for the sunset... The hair illuminated by the sunset is really beautiful, like those gold and silver threads adorning noble costumes ,shiny.

His vision seemed to automatically become a little blurred, his mind was warmed up as if hot water had been poured into it, and some indescribable emotions were brewing around his confidant.

All in all, it's a little uncomfortable.

However, Kerr's chest malfunctioned only for a few seconds, the sun completely set, and the office in the mansion fell into darkness.

Kerr returned to normal in an instant.He couldn't see Chloe's face clearly under the cover of night gauze.After all, this is a novel that more or less follows the laws of physics. Human eyes do not shine, they only reflect light.

Autumn nights will come earlier, and the temperature is low, which will make people feel a little cold.

Before the lights were turned on, the only connection between the two was the warmth of Chloe's hands wrapping Kerr's injured hands.

No.70 Chapter Four, Conversation with Stories and the Past

Chloe had to admit, it was a surprise.

The moment she saw Kerr appearing at the window, the excited and beating blood kept rushing to Chloe's head.If it wasn't for the fiery red light at dusk, Kerr would definitely have noticed that Chloe's face was burning hot.

Blush can be concealed, but dark circles will bulge and puff up under the eyes, which will make your face less beautiful.

Chloe regretted staying up all night to work last night.

However, this kind of thinking and this state only lasted for a moment, and the so-called surprise was only a short period of time when he was "surprised".

Subtle probably refers to this feeling.When an unexpected situation occurs without an appointment, does the heartbeat come from "joy" or "surprise"?

This kind of thing may not even be known to the parties themselves.

Did not expect to meet again so soon.Didn't I introduce him to build weapons in Otto City?Coming back so soon?

When Kerr came in, drank the black tea he made, and then helped him bandage his hands, Chloe's brain basically kept thinking.

Rather, Chloe couldn't stop her rapid thinking, and the rush of blood in her brain made her unable to calm down.

When I gave him the sword, I thought it would take several years to meet him again, and it was possible that I would never see him again in this life.In this war-torn era, a farewell is often a farewell.

Kerr said that he wanted to forge weapons. He must be living the life of a mercenary or an adventurer in the future. That is not a safe way of life. Such people usually die on the way to seek money.

Keep fighting, keep fighting, and then spend the money you earn on weapons, equipment, women in whorehouses, and if you get hurt, you have to find a doctor or healer to heal, and then you can't save money until you can't hold a sword.

That's what a so-called warrior is.

Chloe even firmly believed that after Kerr finished forging the weapon, he would probably follow the same path.A man who fights for a living keeps fighting, rushing from one battlefield to the next, and I will work honestly in this town until I grow old.

Maybe old age and death have nothing to do with each other.

After getting acquainted and separated from the soldiers, it is basically a miracle to see them again.Because of the long distance, the pressure of livelihood and other issues, no one in this world will waste a lot of time just to meet people.

In this world, how difficult it is for two people who have no relationship to meet again.If the two are not in the same country, it is likely that they will never see each other again in their lifetime.

Otto City is ten days and a half months away from here. If the traveling speed is slow, it will even take a month. Why did Kerr come back here?

Could it be that you want to come to work with me?That's great, I really lack talents who can understand text.But if this is the case, beef noodles must be there, right?

Although he looks honest, he actually sold beef noodles as soon as he left the town?

Chloe's mind was thinking wildly. On the one hand, she was happy for the reunion, and on the other hand, she was surprised by Kerr's sudden appearance.

The sun had completely set, and the mayor's mansion was completely plunged into darkness.Before the light was turned on, the two of them put their hands together, and a little warmth flowed into their hearts along their hands.

"..."

"..."

The darkness of night and the cool breeze of autumn night.

Can't see the other person's face.

The slightly chaotic emotions on both sides calmed down, along with the dark environment and low temperature.

Chloe got up and lit the lamp, then went to the kitchen to heat up soup and prepare bread, the quantity was for two people.There was nothing worth helping, and because of his hand injury, Kerr couldn't help flexibly, so he stayed on the sofa in the office and waited.

Bread and hot soup is today's dinner.

Kerr sat on the sofa and Chloe sat on the chair behind the desk.

"Chloe, this thing...you have to carry on, although it's a bit heavy."

He took out a rectangular object from his backpack, which was wrapped in rough leather, and Kerr gently lifted it to his shoulder, and when he was about to throw it over——

"I'm a summoner. If you don't want me to die here, please put your hands lightly on the table."

Chloe expressed herself without stopping to breathe or exhale.Kerr didn't hear what she said clearly, but only understood that he was going to put the book on the table.

"Yes……"

Scared by Chloe's expressionless expression, Kerr put the thing on the desk with both hands tremblingly.

"Thank you."

Chloe winked.

"Uh...how should I react?"

"...Okay, I admit that I did something that didn't fit my image..."

Chloe pulled the leather away. It was a heavy book.Both in terms of thickness and weight.Although the book's cover is made of brass, Lily has carefully frosted the brass to look regal without being glaring.This is a kind of nobility in simple craftsmanship, not the kind of complicated and flashy luxury.

"Very good, I am very satisfied, as expected of Lily, it was not in vain that I gave her a good meal last time."
