The Branded Female Fencer
City of Pleasure, Part 20 - New Request
"Hey, Alphilis. Is it inconvenient without my name?
"Why?"
"Normally it would be what you call them by name. I've never been named before, so I thought it would be unfair."
"Mm-hmm. But even now. Besides, you don't like being called by name, do you? That's why I don't call you. I don't like it or hate it, I don't call it. If you remember, you'll get through. It's nicer than calling a name, don't you think?
To the words of Alphilis, Polskaya had lost his words. For some reason something hot was creeping up around my chest. Alphilis glanced at Polskaya as he shuddered for a while.
"I wonder what's wrong?
"Oh, no... I was thinking a little bit. No one told me that."
"Really? Well, I'm a stranger."
"Hey, Alphilis. What if - if I could go home in the past, have I ever wanted to be something else?
To Polskaya's abrupt question, Alphilis often thought, but the answer was clear.
"I don't think so."
"Why"
"Because in any way I think distress goes around. Suppose I didn't have anything - well, I'm sure I might have lived my whole life getting married to 16 or 17 or someone else in the village next door appropriately there. If the land had been starved, I might have made a living out of serving the city for a little while. You think that's peaceful. But I don't think there would have been freedom, because life is in danger right now, but I think it's exciting."
"Have you ever thought your life would be in vain?
"Well, I do. But someday we're going to die. Then I'd like to live without remorse. I guess that doesn't change the way I live.
I ask the other way around, but what about you?
"I don't want that. Not even a creature like that."
"Then imagine, you're free if you just imagine. I'm not interested in the impossible, but it's fun to imagine."
"Well... then"
Out of Polskaya's mouth was a word I never thought of.
"I'd like to spend some time in a peaceful place, regardless of the battle. Love flowers or have mercy on the wind. I didn't have any connection to that way of life. I want to experience that way of life once and for all."
"There is, there is a fine hope. I'm sure you can."
"Well, where's that assurance?"
"No, I'll let you. So help me. We need your help to survive. You want me to help you?
To the words of Alphilis, this time it is a polskaya that has become pompous in a different sense. And he was hoisting the edge of his mouth in a disgusting, frightened manner.
"It's a woman. Is it a condition of exchange with love? Surely the price is infinite."
"It's not that big a deal. I just don't want to give up anything."
"Come on, that's good. Why don't I work with you as long as I can? I'll give you plenty of archery. Don't think there's gonna be peace in your dreams from now on, okay?
"Snake, snake. Please be gentle."
Having said that, Alphilis, already ready to go to bed, was promptly invited to sleep. Polskaya stared at the look on his face for a while, but eventually nodded to the pillow of Alphilis, he went to sleep in the same way.
After a while, the cat woke up, but was surprised by the unfamiliar sight, or rushed to leave the scene, but often wandered around, seduced by the sleeping face of Alphilis, who sleeps comfortably, he began to sleep in bed in the same way.
The next day, Alphilis and the others had already set up a journey schedule and set off. This will definitely be a fairly safe journey as the next journey will take you down a street full of people. Tarram is a distance of three days if you use a flying dragon. Since there were not as many people leaving Arnelia, Alphilis decided not to hesitate to use the Fei Dragon.
And this time, based on the decision that negotiations in the city would dominate, we chose to focus on the world-class over the battle. Faces that were the main ones were: from Arnelia, Alphilis, Cowen, Ekla, cook pieces, Lunatica, Tajibo, Nia, Yao, Seite, Elsia, Gail, Muscade, Larna and Victoria. And Marduk, Ultina, sent by Miranda. I intend to leave the voicemail to Aerial, Wintier, Daron, etc. Daron was just too conspicuous, because he didn't know what would happen if he took Aerial and other public ignorance. Besides, there was something I wanted Aerial to think about and prepare for.
Actually, Ekla was also going to leave a message, but Ekla rarely wasted it. He complained that he had left a message and was not helping Alphilis. Alphilis told him that he didn't think it was useful, but listening carefully is the end of just wanting to follow Alphilis. But I never had a problem leaving Ekla a voicemail and the job was certainly polite, so Alphilis thought Ekla might be helpful and allowed me to accompany him.
There are other cook pieces asking to be accompanied by rare dishes, Tajivo and Wictrier coming along because they are rare, Elsia and Gayle offering to carry luggage with layers, Larna saying she can't beat a taram whore, etc., and there was undeniably a slightly more relaxed atmosphere than usual. Layer also said he would be as thorough on the back as usual, and at the same time he said he would keep an eye on Elsia and Gail. Particular attention was drawn to the fact that Ultina on the pilgrimage was bringing Jake.
