Chapter 212
But I will definitely protect Sylphy from meeting the hero in the brave story line.
Seeing that Sylphy had no stubborn intentions, Jupiter finally felt relieved.
As for Sylphy's slightly silent performance, the three of them soon boarded the car and returned to the Imperial City. Because of an unexpected incident, he returned to normal.
Just when the carriage entered the civilian area of the empire, Jupiter and his party met a newly married couple!
As the groom, a handsome blond boy was happily handing out wedding candies to the passers-by and carriages - this was a custom among civilians in the Britalia Empire when they got married.
Although it is definitely not as grand as the aristocratic wedding, it still has a simple and pure meaning.
It's okay to feel happy -
Jupiter got out of the car and got one for everyone.
I even had a few words with the groom.
"Are you an adventurer? Alas, actually I wanted to be an adventurer before. But I kept failing. After working to save enough money to marry Xiaohua, I felt that I could no longer worry the person I loved, so I inherited Xiaohua. Home store.”
"Want to dine in our restaurant, young noble lord? Today's discount is 20% off!"
There is no need to eat, Sylphy is still waiting for him to go back.
Looking at the newcomers in front of him, Jupiter always felt a little "uneasy" in his heart.
But soon, Sylphy's call brought him back to his senses, and he immediately went back, boarded the car and left.
After taking away the wedding candy from Jupiter's hand, Sylphy and Alicia didn't mind how cheap it was.
Put it in your mouth and taste it.
They were no longer silent. The problem was... the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became very strange.
"well……"
"..."
Sylphy did the same, and Alicia did too. The two women suddenly started sighing strangely.
Then, they looked at each other again.
"Alicia, why are you sighing!?"
"It's just your illusion."
One second it was peaceful, but the next second Sylphy found trouble with Alicia again.
Jupiter couldn't understand it immediately.
I don’t dare to guess!
Just huddle in the corner and eat sweets and that’s it!
So sweet!
After a brief observation, nothing
In the erotic magic trial area, Sylphy was comforted and the "big cat" was tamed.
As the protective gear and armor specially customized for him by the Duke of Blacks were sent to the academy by servants, Jupiter also asked for leave from Teacher Beru.
On the day when the private commission that I took over could begin, I set out for the restricted area outside the city with the little princess Alicia as my assistant.
There are competitors for this commission! Even the final result of "first come, first served" played a decisive factor!
But Jupiter couldn't help but race against time!
So, that day.
Afternoon.
It is also the time when "commissioning starts" among commissions!
Jupiter and Alicia, who had met up early in the morning and arrived, immediately started to enter this "colorless magic restricted area".
It is called a "trial area" here, but it is still a type of "restricted area". Moreover, as the monster spawning area is extremely large, naturally the "colorless magic materials" in it also have too much value.
Therefore, unlike the previous situation where they were the only team when they were "carefully designed" by President Xino to "download the dungeon", when Jupiter and the little princess obtained the pass given by the Imperial Knights outpost, they entered this When inside the area...
There were some other groups of adventurers around.
They were either groups of strong men, or teams composed of men and women that looked like "games" at first glance.
Because he had not met the other "playable heroines" that Jupiter knew in the "Brave Story Line", he was really not sure for a while whether there were "braves" among these adventurers.
Who is a brave man again.
After all, the hero who is the male protagonist in the original game must not have shown his face!
At most, I missed an eagle during the H scene.
Without the "heroine" as a reference, how could he know who she was.
On the contrary: the combination of him and Alicia is even more eye-catching - even today the little princess Alicia is dressed in black and has her long white hair tied into a ponytail. But it still attracted whispers from nearby adventurers.
There is no guarantee that no one will recognize Alicia’s identity.
Even if there was no danger, the commotion alone would be enough to delay the completion of the commission.
"Alicia-san, let's speed up."
Therefore, Jupiter had no intention of looking around to see which of the adventurer teams that came to this restricted area for other, ordinary adventurers, was the "brave" team.
Where are his "competitors"?
The enemy is in the dark and he is in the light, so there is no time to think too much.
The two quickly left the area covered by the Imperial Knights' outpost and entered the restricted area of this colorless magic.
Just like a magic trick, the originally sunny afternoon environment was quickly replaced by gloomy dark clouds and dense white fog surrounding it.
Although it's not to the point of being "blind", it's enough to make Jupiter worried: in this restricted area where monsters with colorless magic attributes may even appear, where he and Alicia are unfamiliar. There will be no "getting lost" situation!
"This was a wasteland left after the forests were mined during the empire's expansion."
Silence will make each other feel more nervous.
So, it was just to ease the tense atmosphere between them. Alicia, who already knew the royal family of the Britalia Empire very well, spoke softly.
"It's just that when the empire wanted to restore this place to a forest, it found that it had been eroded too much by colorless magic and became an area where monsters spawned."
Rocks, wasteland, tree stumps and tree trunks can be seen everywhere - these trees that were originally cut down can be replanted. It's just that because monsters have already appeared nearby, it is no longer suitable for civilians who are just ordinary people to work here.
The intermittent trampled marks on the ground tell that this place is not so dangerous that no one dares to come, but the white mist filled with colorless magic seems to be getting denser with the footsteps of the two.
It was like going from ordinary haze to heavy fog.
"At that time, the empire wanted to reduce the scope of the area where monsters were generated, but soon discovered that only monsters with colorless magic properties appeared here."
"After explaining this to Lucalia College, the college treated this place as a special "restricted area", which is how the current trial place came about. "
Jupiter nodded: It has to be you, Your Highness, the little princess.
Sylphy didn't have the heart to learn these things that could only be learned in history classes.
But he was concentrating on finding the way and didn't pay attention.
To: Alicia on the side was talking...
The voice and the body are gradually getting closer.
"Just think of this place as a target for training magic power. Our commission is to go deep into the area where the "fourth-level colorless magic power" stipulated by the academy can enter, complete the hunting mission, and obtain the magic ore that meets the conditions. . "
Alicia kept talking uncharacteristically, how could she still look as cold as before?
In fact: he knew everything Alicia reminded him.
In the setting of the original game, this is how the trial area with colorless magic came about.
But he was embarrassed to interrupt Alicia’s proactive reminder, right?
That's what I originally thought, but the next moment...
Alicia even made an action that surprised him!
At some point, Alicia, who was about half a step behind him, was already shoulder to shoulder with him.
One hand even... stretched out towards him!
It startled him!
"Uh!? Alicia?"
How could Jupiter not be afraid? ? He, a little bastard, casually touched the little hand of the C-position heroine, but the "protagonist" refused to chop him into pieces! ?
However, when their eyes met, they realized that it was Alicia who took the initiative!
He really didn’t touch it!
Compared to his nervous reaction, Alicia was even more embarrassed!
I could still talk freely just now, but now even my voice has become much stiffer!
The tone of his explanation... was just like quibbling!
"This, this place is all filled with mist formed by colorless magic power. It becomes denser towards the center of the area."
"To prevent getting lost, I...it would be better for us to hold hands."
It really is!
It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong with it. It seems like Jupiter was just more "sensitive" just now.
However, that's what he thought, but Alicia in front of him looked embarrassed.
He lowered his head, no longer daring to look at him.
The gaze under her eyes was slightly raised, as if she was expecting and waiting for his response.
"hiss……"
Jupiter suddenly became uneasy: If there is a legitimate reason, holding hands is just like shaking hands. Isn't it reasonable?
But Alicia's reaction, which looked like "shy" from any angle, actually made him a little embarrassed.
But I still can't refuse - this is the request made by the little princess Alicia!
I can only brainstorm crazily in my mind, thinking: What is Alicia's attitude towards him?
While biting the bullet, he took the initiative to reach out.
He squeezed Alicia's hand that was about to stretch out.
Small, soft, that’s natural!
That is: the moment you touch... you tremble slightly and subconsciously want to pull away!
However, Jupiter had no time to react to these subtle reactions! I don’t even have the heart to react!
I grabbed it instantly.
Next to her, Alicia was trembling all over as if she had been electrocuted! But he soon took a few deep breaths and calmed down.
Only the sound of each other's breathing was left, faintly visible in this abandoned forest farm, wasteland, and the diffuse mist.
The other groups of adventurers we just met were not without encounters one after another at the beginning. But the commissions of those teams are obviously different from theirs.
At this moment, Jupiter and Alicia were really the only two people around.
There seemed to be rustling noises caused by monsters somewhere far away. It's just that Alicia's magic level is so powerful that she didn't suddenly break into their sight!
I don't know if it was because of this, but Alicia beside him seemed a little absent-minded from the beginning.
"Looking at the original journey, it would take at least one day and one night to confirm the route first and then enter the specified area."
"It's just that there are competitors for this commission, and we have to race against time. Alicia, I don't plan to rest. I want to reach the place where I can complete the hunting mission directly."
Along the way, Jupiter did not encounter the appearance of a similar "hero".
So he thought: hurry up, race against time, and complete his own commission before the hero can complete the commission!
This is the most useful way to successfully upgrade!
In the original game, the hero will encounter various opportunities in this trial area of colorless magic, which has nothing to do with him!
