The cannon of rebirth, your uncle's ashes

"Hey, it's you—" Just as the atmosphere between the two was stalemate, a surprise call came from the side, breaking the frozen atmosphere.

Igor tilted his head at Kane, didn't say anything, but turned around and looked at the boy who was waving at him, the surprise on his face was also self-evident.

"Aruel?!"

The young man with green short hair is still the same as when we first met him, with a hearty and sincere smile in his eyes, a natural concentrator, and every strand of hair seems to be dyed with shining colors.

"I knew it was you. Although I only met once, my memory is always the best! We really met again... Speaking of which, I didn't ask your name the last time I met..."

Looking at Alur who saw his excited expression in front of him, Igor couldn't help but a mocking smile on his face, "Igel, my name is Igel. Seeing that you are completely intact I feel relieved standing here, congratulations on your successful arrival in Domis City, Alur."

"Well..." Mentioning his road-crazy attributes, Alur scratched his head in embarrassment, but he was not ashamed of being poked into a weak point, and ignored the other three elves standing silently at the side, and went on his own. Pulling Igor's arm, he walked across the road.

Seeing that he might not be able to leave for a while, Iger turned his head slightly to signal Kane to talk back when he had something to say.

And Arul, who grabbed Igor, talked about the situation after the day's separation with a familiar expression.

"Actually, it wasn't that smooth, as you know, even if I know the direction, I still don't know where I'm going... Ah, to be honest, I was able to reach Domis City safely thanks to them! Hey, I'm here! I found the person who showed me the way that day!"

"They?" His gaze subconsciously cast in the direction of Alur's hand, but suddenly froze when he touched the approaching person.

"It turned out to be them..."

Looking at Orend, who couldn't stop smiling in surprise after recognizing him, and Miha, who had dark eyes, Igor's expression became more and more rigid.

I actually forgot, at this time, the development of the relationship between Alur and Orend...

Sure enough, the recent days have been too comfortable.

"Igor! Why are you here too!"

No matter how many mud horses whizzed by in Iger's heart at this time, Iger, who had already been noticed by Orend, could only walk forward uncomfortable, and also showed a bright smile to Orend. .

"Orend, Miha~"

Looking at the two intimate people in front of him, Alur blinked in surprise, "You know each other?"

Hearing this, Orend, who still had a doting smile, looked at Igor, who was still obediently in front of him, feeling a little nostalgic.

"Yeah, Igor is the little guy who traveled all the way with me before coming to St. Domis College. We have always known each other very well. I didn't expect that the benefactor that Arul said was actually Igor~ "

After all, Orend stretched out his hand and patted Igor's little head, in exchange for a slightly dissatisfied stare from the other side.

"I didn't expect that the person who showed Alur the way was Igor~ This is a surprising coincidence, after all, Igor's strength is not considered...how did he go to a place like Dongzhishan Where is the fault zone?" Miha on the side looked at Igor with a friendly and gentle smile, but what he said surprised both Igor and Orend suddenly.

Seeing Orend's slightly expressiony gaze in front of him, Igor suddenly felt uneasy.He knows that this fellow who is also a time traveler is not a brainless person, but because of the blessing of the original story, he often doesn't bother to think about it, but if it arouses his suspicion and attention rashly, his own point Poor cover-ups are probably sooner or later...

There must be a reason not to make him suspicious.

Thinking of this, Iger simply decided to tell some things that he wanted to hide originally, after all, it was better than being completely suspected.

And just when Igor was thinking about it, Alur on the side still raised his eyebrows, and looked at Miha with an unfriendly expression: "What do you mean? Miha Ai Siqi, I think you It’s because the people around Orend didn’t care much about you, but Igor is my friend. What do you want to do if you are so eccentric? Others will always have other people’s fate. How did you get here? Anyone is better than you. Has everything changed beyond reason? Are you thinking too highly of yourself?!"

"I... I didn't say that... I was just worried about Igor..." Faced with such a severe accusation, Miha looked at Orend with some grievances, but he touched the other side so that he would not provoke Ah After Ruhr's gaze, he could only lower his head aggrievedly, biting his lower lip without saying a word.

Seeing through the eye contact between the three at a glance, Orend's extra forbearance because of his request to Alur, and Miha's way of swallowing his anger because of Orend's attitude, presumably the recent three There are also some interesting things happening between people.

Turning his gaze to Alul who was aside, Igor couldn't help thinking about it.He took a step back without leaving any traces under his feet, out of Orend's reach, his blue eyes were reflecting the afternoon sun, and some light spots were flickering happily.

"It was a complete accident that I met Alur that day~ I was doing experiments under my mentor recently. Although my mentor is not well-known, it is always good to learn more. It happened that day that my mentor asked my brother to take me to pick a Plants for experiments. The terrain of the Dongzhishan fault zone is steep, and my brother and I have suffered a lot. If it weren’t for the fact that the instructor must use that kind of plant in the experiment, the brother would definitely not want to go there. Who would have thought, it’s hard Afraid to go up, a leisurely-faced Alur appeared from behind unknowingly, which frightened me and my brother. My brother said that even if you are in the inner court, you may not be your opponent. It is really powerful. , Arul~"

Hearing this, Orend nodded clearly, and didn't pay much attention to it. After all, St. Domis College does have many tutors who are not well-known and can't study anything in their entire lives. Considering Eagle's own strength, it is probably a fluke I voted for the eye of a certain little mentor.

Calmly using Miha's doubts about his own strength to transfer the center of the problem to Alur, Igor looked at Alul standing beside him with sincere admiration, as if seeing a child of a hero. He was slightly relieved after noticing Orend's eyes turned to Alur, but his fingers were tightly curled up behind him, and his nails almost sank into the skin.

I'm sorry, Alur, although saying this may expose you to Orend in advance, but...according to the development in the original book, this will happen sooner or later, but for me, it can save my life.I'm sorry, although I know it's useless to say anything, but I owe you this, and I will definitely repay you a hundred times in the future, and I will never let you fall into the tragic ending in the original book.

On the side, Orend actually didn't know much about Alul's strength.On that day, Orend just wanted to go out to practice with Miha and try his best to improve his combat level for the trials. In the end, he didn't want to meet Kule who came out to hunt monsters alone but was hunted down by high-level monsters.After bumping into the monster, the two of Orend, who didn't react at all, were dragged into the water immediately, and the three of them dealt with the monster reluctantly.

And at this time, I don't know where Alur appeared from, and he stabbed the monster's eyes in the blink of an eye, and escaped with the three people who could hardly stand it.

In such a flustered situation, Orend didn't know what kind of strength Aruel was, but after escaping, he felt that Aluul was very powerful, so he invited him to give him some magic and martial arts guidance, but after hearing Igor's Praise, Orend couldn't help but think about it.

"Speaking of which, Alur, you are not a student of St. Domis College, but you are so powerful. You must have a very powerful teacher?"

"Teacher? Ah, you mean the master?... Well, it's okay..." Aruel looked at Orend's admiring gaze, and couldn't help but tilt his head a little embarrassedly, and thought for a while, " I seldom come down the mountain, but people who have visited Master once said that Master is the most powerful person on the entire continent!"

"The most powerful..." Even Orend and Miha didn't seem to have expected such a casual trial to get such a result. Excitedly but compulsively, he asked patiently, "You, your master is Baton Ji'an?!"

Alur, who was shaken so violently, nodded in confusion, "Um...it seems to be...Aurend, why are you so excited?"

"No, it's nothing! It's just that I didn't expect you to have such a great master... Well, seeing your strength, you can understand it all at once. A famous teacher produces a great apprentice!"

"Indeed, it's no wonder that Alur is so powerful!" Igor, who had been pretending to be shocked by the news for the first time, also sighed with emotion. He glanced at Miha, who had an ugly face after knowing Alul's identity, and felt in his heart. Some kind of depression that has been smoldering for a long time seems to be relieved, "I heard that Orende and you went to participate in the selection competition. It would be great if Alur is also a student of St. Domis College, and he can form a team with someone like Alur , can definitely win!"

"This kind of thing can't be forced. Besides, Kule has agreed to consider joining our team a few days ago. He is also a very good magic warrior." Full of regrets, Orend seemed to think of himself Knowing that the game will be won but still removing Iger from the team, he hesitated and said, "Actually, I wanted to call Igel to form a team together. After all, it is a rare opportunity to enter the inner court. but……"

"I understand, and I'm not afraid of Aruel's jokes. I'm known as a piece of shit. Even if I barely play with Orend, I won't drag you down, and I might lose my life." Ah." He lowered his head halfway in frustration, then straightened his head with a forced smile before Orend and Arul comforted himself, and smiled comfortingly, "Well, I'm used to it, who told me I don’t have much talent by nature~ Well, the sky is gone, I went shopping with my brother, I have to meet them earlier~”

"Hey, are those elves who were with you just now? I thought you guys didn't know each other..." Aluer finally realized that he dragged Igor away like no one else, and laughed a few times , "I'm sorry, Eagle, I'm so happy to see you again, so I didn't pay much attention..."

"It's okay, well, Aluer is not a bad person~ Then you go on shopping, I will let them go to other places to see first, you have to go to them quickly!" Igor comforted Aluer, his eyes were clear. Involuntarily looking towards the distance of the street with some urgency.

"I can't find anyone yet? Shall we go find them separately?" Orend thought of the elf he had seen that was obviously different from ordinary people, and he couldn't help thinking of making friends.

"No need, people of the same race will always have mutual feelings, and it won't take too long for me to find it myself. Besides, didn't you guys come out with Aluer, so don't delay your business~"

"Then... Igor, be careful yourself, you must come to the competition on the day of the preliminary round of the selection competition!" Looking to the side, Aluer weighed the importance of the disciple of the most powerful man on the mainland and an unknown elf. Lund still chose to accompany this young man with a deeper background, and Eagle had no choice but to give up.

"Yeah! I'll definitely go! Arul, see you next time~"

"Yeah, I'll go and play with you when I have time!"

The light wheel hanging in the sky gradually slanted westward, and the dim sunlight made the person's back slender. Igor, who turned around and left, lowered his head slightly and could see the shadows belonging to the three of Orend Aruel that were still projected on the ground. figure.

The sound of the wheel of fortune turning seems to be ringing in the ear, clearly hitting the nerves of the brain.

And that was also the sound of Eagle's countdown to life.

The blood in the veins was obviously still flowing so freshly, and the heart was still beating so vigorously, but this healthy body would collapse on the wilderness land one day soon.

Already, I can't wait anymore, and there are many things, and there is no way to wait any longer.

Passing through countless crowds, the smile on Eagle's face became deeper and deeper, until he rediscovered the three of Kane, raised one eyebrow and walked forward.

"Hey, Kane."

"Dian... Yige, are you back?" Caring slightly for the strangers standing around in the shop, Kane hesitated for a while, but Kane still didn't quote any honorifics, but nodded to Yige slightly apologetically.

"Let me tell you, Kane, have you ever thought about something?" Igor was very satisfied with Kane's delicate thoughts and formal details, but at this time, he didn't have so much time to continue his vague teasing up.

"Have you ever thought about what your position is?"

"I...ge..." Kane didn't seem to expect Iger's sudden words like this, but he stopped abruptly when he noticed Iger's eyes when he wanted to jokingly ask back.

Green, always full of endless vitality, is the favorite color of elves.At this time, Eagle's green eyes seemed to suppress countless vitality, but also seemed to contain endless vitality. In such a completely contradictory transition of two emotions, some kind of too dazzling light shone.

Swallows hope, but breeds hope.Crazy before the storm, but looking forward to a new world after the rain.

Such a look...

Kane had to admit that he was bewitched.

A certain thought that had been buried deep in his heart for a long time seemed to break out of the ground in an instant.

but,

After all, it still can't.

The shackles on his body from the day he was born always remind him of the responsibilities inherited from his elders on his shoulders.

Seeing Kane's lips parted but unable to speak, Igor just raised his arm slightly and patted Kane's shoulder.

"Kane, you are just yourself, you are not anyone's doll."

There was an inexplicable power that made his heart warm, and it just rushed into his body from the place where he was patted, stirring the stagnant water in his body that had already accepted his fate, as if it was about to set off a huge wave and overturn the already described state of mind.

I... am I a doll...

If it is... then I don't want to...

But... am I really...

...Could it be that what I'm doing now is, isn't what I should be doing...

What's wrong with me like this...

"You seem very reluctant?" Eagle was a little dissatisfied with Kane's silent hesitation, "Are you questioning my ability?"

"No, of course I never questioned you! It's just... I have my responsibilities after all..." In one sentence, Kane said it with difficulty, and seemed to have exhausted all his energy.

"Responsibility?... That kind of thing, I never remember that I have ordered you anything." Igor pursed the corners of his lips impatiently when he heard the words, and looked at Kane's stubborn expression, but seemed to have an interesting expression. Shrugging his eyebrows, he immediately hid the impatience on his face, approached the other person's face a little viciously, and stared fixedly into Kane's eyes.

The lips touched lightly, and the voice was so subtle that it was almost inaudible.

At the end of the sentence, Kane suddenly widened his eyes.

"——!!!"

Until Iger turned around and disappeared at the door of the shop, Kane still maintained such a shocked expression and froze in place. This strangeness made the two puzzled elves standing far away dare not move casually. After a long time It was only then that he decided to try to wake up Kane.

"Master Kane, Lord Kane... Are you all right, Lord Kane?"

"Ah? Ah... It's Buno... I, I'm fine...Is Igor gone?" Barely reacting, Kane turned his head subconsciously when he saw the little elf looking at him worriedly. Wiped the heavy sweat off his forehead.

"It's been a while, Teacher, you have been..." Another older elf also looked at Kane worriedly, hesitated and said, "If I offend you, please forgive me, but, Lord Kane, What did that adult do to you..."

"Tia!" The stern look swept towards the two elves, seeing that they lowered their heads obediently, and still did not say what they wanted to reprimand, "Don't meddle in these matters."

"Yes."

"……Yes."

Instead of paying attention to the two elves who had already sworn allegiance to him, Kane turned his head to the direction where Igor left, with a complicated look on his face, and the sound that had just floated into his ears lightly, but was so heavy that he almost Almost unbearable words.

"Kane, do you understand what betrayal to the king is?"

Betrayal of the king...

Even if I understand, the multiple-choice questions you just throw in front of me like this really make me feel embarrassed.

What should I do to satisfy you?

Mine, Your Highness.
