The Paladin on the Infinite Tour

Alexia smiled: "Although it is true that I came back temporarily, my desire to see you is real. After all, in my time, it has been almost eight months since I saw you. , it’s impossible not to think about it no matter what. Only in this world, you are the most important person to me and the person who can’t be ignored the most.”

"...Haha~~~ I haven't seen you for a while. I've learned a lot about how to coax girls." Lan Yu Qiancong chuckled lightly, "But I'm not that easy to coax. Let me manage it for you. You have to repay the debt I owe to Xian Kamijima for one month. In the next month, you will—"

"There's no way I can stay here for a month."

Alexia interrupted Lan Yu Qian Cong's words.

"To be precise, because this time I came back unexpectedly, I will only stay here for about three days. There are still places in my hometown that need me, so I can't allocate my energy here for the time being. .”

".......Is it."

Lan Yu Qiancong heard him talk about the matter in Alexia's hometown.

It was a very dangerous world. In order to fight against some frequent natural disasters and the messengers of destruction sent by the gods, Exia and his companions had been fighting hard.

Is it the same now?

"That......."

"But I think this is the last time." Exia continued, "Although it is just my speculation, I think that after I go back, a reliable scientist will probably be able to come up with a suitable [final battle plan]. And if I can do that decisive battle plan, my fight in that world will be over."

Of course, it must be only a temporary end.

Even if the end is crossed and Honkai is defeated, that doesn't mean everything is over. Time will not stop because of this, and the world will not come to an end because of this. After crossing the end, we will have to face a new life, and there will definitely be new [battles].

but--

"And after my time there is over, I'm going to take a good vacation for myself. The temporary arrangement is to get married to everyone first, and then start preparing for the construction of the new Genkami Island."

"Hmm~~~Huh? Hmm hmm? Just wait for me first."

"Did I just hear something that I can't ignore, senior?"

Lan Yuqiang, who was listening to Alexia's words, and Ji Hiiragi Xuena, who had been standing behind her since just now, took advantage of Alexia's breather to question his words with surprised expressions.

"【Everyone】?"

"【marry】?"

Lan Yu Qiancong put down the cake fork and approached Aixia with slightly widened eyes: "Are you getting married? And you're marrying several people?"

"Yes." Alexia nodded, "In the past six months since I returned, I have experienced a lot of things. Although it was not what I had originally thought, it should be said that it was forced by the situation, or maybe I didn't know it. It has become like this before I know it. I now have nearly double digits of fiancées, and when the final battle is over, I will prepare to marry everyone."

Alexia accidentally said something full of flag.

These words made Lan Yu Qiancong and Ji Hiiragi Xuena feel like they were struck by lightning. Their cheeks turned red for a moment, but they soon showed strong surprise.

"Actually, I didn't come back alone this time. Bianca and Miss Aige are both with me. In addition, I also have two new partners who will be introduced to you later."

"And after coming back, I also have another purpose."

Alexia stretched out her hand to Lan Yu Qianon, showing the smile he had shown her so far.

"Qian Cong, do you still remember the relationship between you and me in this world?"

"...I am your princess in name only, right?" Lan Yu Qiancong calmed down, "What's going on?"

“I want to remove the prefix [nominal].”

Alexia held Lan Yu Qian Cong's hand: "Before I left, Qian Cong, you confessed to me. At that time, I couldn't give a response or answer, I just wanted to delay it as much as possible. But now I am different ”

"Qian Cong, can you be my real [Princess]?"

28. Meet everyone for a round

I was proposed to by Exia!

It took Lan Yu Qiancong several seconds to realize the fact that was happening in front of him.

"wait......"

The lips moved.

“Wait wait wait wait wait————————!!!”

The next moment, Lan Yu Qiancong immediately slapped the table with a blushing face! The cake shop was suddenly filled with the sound of banging and banging on the table! Fortunately, Lan Yu Qiancong is now a big celebrity, and everyone knows that she is the princess of the Kaslana Empire, so when she is here, the place is automatically reserved for her.

Her Royal Highness likes cake buffets and is also a ramen lover - this is something that anyone who pays a little attention to her on Genkami Island will know right away.

"You, you, you, you, why are you saying such things all of a sudden! To really become your princess or something...are you going to marry me!?"

"Yeah, of course."

Alexia smiled.

"I failed to respond to your feelings at first, but now I want to. And we are a couple in name only. In that case, why not just become a real relationship-"

"Wait for me first!"

Lan Yu Qiancong quickly stretched out her hand to interrupt him, paused for a moment and then asked: "Let me ask first, you are Exia, right?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

"Is there something wrong with your brain? Or did something happen that made your brain suddenly clear?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Because you, a bastard, proposed to me... you wouldn't have been able to do it a month ago!"

Lan Yuqiang knows Aixia very well.

After all, they had been together for a year, and Alexia was a very easy-to-understand person, so it didn’t take long for Lan Yu Qiancong to figure out his character - the possibility of him taking the initiative to propose to her was extremely likely to happen. Not even a fraction of it!

The result is now...

"What happened to you?"

"...It's just that I have some understanding." Ixia said, "I lost some things, and then gained some things. After I re-understood what kind of person I was, I changed It has become what it is now. You can understand it this way."

Words of unknown meaning.

But, it's somewhat understandable.

"So, what's the answer?" Alexia returned to the topic, "Are you willing to be my real princess?"

"Willing... No! That's not the problem!"

Lan Yu Qiancong, who subconsciously wanted to answer according to his heart, shook his head in the next second: "I just sounded a little bit louder. When you called back before, you seemed to have said that you have several fiancées, right? Then I...doesn’t it matter if you add me?”

"Why does it matter? They all know about you."

"Eh?"

"When I called before, they were all around me, but you didn't see it. So everyone in my family knows that you are my nominal princess, and I think I will want to [make the lie come true] with you. They all know what I think."

Therefore, Exia told Lan Yu Qian Chong about this matter after knowing all the circumstances.

"Speaking of which, I heard you say [yes] just now, right?"

"Ugh... I said it! How about it?"

As if a broken jar had been broken, Lan Yu Qiancong shouted and sighed heavily: "I didn't expect you to tell me such a thing as soon as you came back... I thought you would care about the empire first. After all, it’s something you built with your own hands.”

"I do want to ask about the situation here, but I think that in terms of priority, proposing to you is more important."

"......snort!"

Lan Yu Qiancong snorted, but judging from the expression on her face, she should be in a much better mood now.

After all, she wasn't that angry herself. It was mostly the remnants of two days of overtime work, similar to [waking up angry]. Now that I have eaten cake and had enough rest time, I have gradually calmed down.

After calming down, all that was left was naturally the joy of Exia's return and the joy of being proposed to him just now.

"However, I didn't expect that Ji Heng was here too."

Alexia looked at Ji Hiiragi Xuena behind Lan Yu Qiancong.

"The last time we met was at the meeting of the Four True Ancestors, right? I remember that you were sent by the Lion King Agency to Jiada to serve as her monitor and bodyguard."

"Yes. I'm glad that senior still remembers me."

"It's impossible not to remember, right? We are temporary lovers after all."

The relationship between herself and Ji Hiiragi Yukina is also a part that Alexia will not forget. After all, it was the first time he got along with a girl as a [lover]. Although Sajo Aige controlled Yukina Himiragi's body most of the time, the two were indeed temporary lovers.

If possible, Exia also wants to be responsible for her - after all, everything lovers have done.

"How come you are on Genkami Island?"

"I am currently serving as the bodyguard of Senior Lan Yu." Ji Hiiragi Xuena explained, "About half a month ago, Senior Lan Yu suffered an attack. After that, in order to better protect Senior Lan Yu, I He was sent to the Kaslana Empire by the Lion King Agency to serve as the senior's personal guard."

Attack?

Hearing this word, Exia suddenly frowned: "An attack on Asakusa? What's going on?"

The Kaslana Empire is now the fourth Empire of Night in the world, and it is also the territory of the world's most powerful vampire. Launching an attack on the princess of the Fourth True Ancestor here... it can almost be said that it is an attack on the entire world. The Empire and the Fourth True Ancestor declared war.

"It's not a big deal, it's just an overseas terrorist organization that has been dealt with by Na Yue-chan." Lan Yu Qiancong waved his hand, "According to the subsequent interrogation, the other party was an admirer and imitator of the Black Death Emperor faction, because The real Black Death Emperor faction was eliminated by you last year, so these imitators want to launch revenge... It can only be said that they are a group of idiots. How can any idiot think of launching a revenge against the strongest vampire in the world? Revenge?"

"What about you, are you injured?"

"Definitely not." Lan Yu Qiancong shook his hands and feet, "There were some scratches at the time, but they were healed quickly afterwards. And the attack was not a surprise to me, after all, I am sitting in this position now , there must be a lot of people who have ulterior motives for me. But now that I have Ji Hiiragi by my side, I am very safe."

"Yes. I will definitely do my best to protect Senior Lan Yu!"

Ji Hiiragi Xuena, who has become an official sword shaman and is now given the right to use the [Snow Cloud Wolf], firmly guarantees it.

Alexia smiled slightly: "Really, that would be great - speaking of Qian Cong, are you full?"

"Huh? Are you leaving?"

"No, I want to take you to meet someone. In addition, I also want to go back to my home and school. It's a rare time to come back. I want to meet Furujo, Nagisa, and Teacher Nazuki. Motoki just met him, forget it. "

"In addition, if possible, there are Kosaka and La Folia. I feel like I can go and see them, Hagase Natsuon."

This is a rhythm that prepares everyone to meet for a round.

Lan Yu Qiancong nodded at the table: "In that case, leave it to me. Let's have a rare gathering tonight."

29. So don’t block the door

Night falls.

Kaslana Empire, in an apartment building in the southern area of ​​​​Old Genkami Island.

Room 705.

During the year he lived on Genkami Island, this place has always been Exia's residence. Even though he has been away for more than a month and the place has become vacant, it has still not been resold.

After all, it is the property of His Majesty the True Ancestor. Who would dare to buy it or rent it without foresight?

And after what Lan Yu Qiancong said, now in this apartment——

"Brother Xia~~~!"

Alexia's adopted sister in this world, Akatsukisa, who regards her next-door neighbor as a brother who is closer than a real brother, rushed out of the kitchen almost the moment he stepped into this place, following a car Like a train moving at full speed, it crashed into Alexia's arms!

Putting her arms around her nominal little sister, Exia smiled and said, "Don't rush out in such a hurry, Nagisa, be careful of falling."

"Anyway, brother Xia, you will definitely catch me!"

Raising his head, Akatsuki Nagisa couldn't suppress the smile on his face: "It's been a month, Brother Xia! Welcome back!"

"Well, I'm back, Nagisa." Alexia touched her little head, "Where is the ancient city? Where did that idiot go?"

"Who is the idiot!"

In the kitchen of Alexia's house, Xiao Gucheng walked out of the kitchen wearing an apron and holding a spoon in his hand. He looked at his best friend angrily: "You called me a fool as soon as I came back, so you can't change your tone to something nicer." Do you want to call me something?"

"Then basketball idiot?"

"I'm not an idiot!"

"Okay, okay, how long are you going to stand at the door?"

Behind Alexia, Lan Yu Qiancong pushed the back of Alexia who was blocking the door: "Please don't block the door, there are people outside. And in the ancient city, you are really the only idiot here. This is fact."

"That's right, Gucheng-kun is not as good as Xia Ge."

"Why are you like this too!"

Being directly attacked by his best friend and sister since middle school, Xiao Gucheng suddenly looked like he was greatly shocked.

But this is indeed a fact. When it comes to learning, Akatsuki is an idiot who can't even compare to his own sister. If the two are the same age, then he can't even raise any dignity as an older brother in front of Nagisa - although now Basically no more. Akatsuki Nagisa is closer to Alexia, the sworn brother, than to him, his biological brother.
