Chapter 29 The Ship
As if I had done the most ordinary thing, I killed Baisos. And Feng, who was beside me, now looked at me with fear in his eyes for the first time.
It's not that I can't understand it. After all, as Feng's master, I am gentle and strict at the same time, but now I... seem to have become another completely different existence in an instant. Maybe... it will make her think that now
I am the real me now, and this kind of me makes Feng feel scared.
"Feng, I know that whatever I say is useless. When you return to Yueyou Academy, you no longer need to recognize me as your master."
However, Feng's next response was beyond my expectation.
"What are you talking about? Senior Leon? How could I deny such a good master like you?"
I originally thought that Feng must be full of fear when talking to me, and even hesitated to speak because of fear and even retreated, but the result was not what I thought.
"Senior Leon, you may think that I will be afraid of you because of what you did just now, but... it's not like that. I know that Senior Leon killed that person because of me."
"……What did you say?"
"Senior Leon probably didn't want me to kill that person, so he acted as a villain and killed that person himself, right? How could I be afraid of such a gentle Senior Leon?"
"Feng, but even if you say that, I still killed someone."
"I know. In order to survive, it is indeed possible to kill. But Senior Leon, in fact, even if you didn't kill him before me just now, I might choose to kill him at the last moment."
I didn't expect Feng to say this. It seems that I underestimated her too much.
However, I soon noticed a slight change in Feng's expression. It seemed that she had just said that she could kill Baisos, but in the end she only said it to comfort me. In her heart, she was afraid that it would be impossible for her to kill Baisos.
murderous.
"Feng, you don't have to lie to me. I know it's impossible for people like you to kill people. There's no need to comfort me. I accept your wishes."
"No, Senior Leon, I can do it as long as I say it can be done."
At this time, Feng suddenly gave me a very strange feeling. This feeling is difficult to describe, but it made me feel that if Feng was really cruel, he could indeed do such things as kill people.
"Senior Leon! In short...please believe me, I will never be afraid of Senior Leon because of this."
"Feng...thank you."
There was no fear in Feng's eyes now, which also made me feel a little more comfortable. At this time, we sorted out our thoughts a little and stepped onto the raft together.
I took out the pole that Baithos originally put on the raft, and then started rowing the raft.
The water of this river is pure black. The water is not turbulent and flows very slowly. Finally, when the shore is completely invisible, there is endless river water in all directions. This is not like a river at all, but like a river.
Like the sea. This little raft is as small as dust on this black river.
"Let's take a little rest."
I don’t know how much time has passed, but we are still on this raft. Now we have even lost our bearings, let alone found the exit.
"Senior Leon, shouldn't we stay here forever?"
"Haha...who knows?"
I smiled bitterly. Although I have tried my best not to think about this possibility, but... it is really possible, as Feng said, if we can't find the exit, we might really have to stay in this ghost place.
Already.
"Um?"
But at this moment, I discovered a vague shadow appeared far ahead of me. The moment I saw the shadow, I thought I was lucky enough to have found the exit, but... then I...
I found that if this shadow is the shadow of the exit door, then it seems to be too big.
Thinking of this, the ominous premonition suddenly rose again.
"Senior Leon? What's wrong?"
Feng noticed something strange about me and asked me immediately.
"Feng, look ahead, do you see a blurry shadow?"
"Ahead? Let me take a look."
Feng stared forward with wide eyes, and then immediately agreed: "Yes, there really is a shadow!"
"I don't know what that shadow is, but I have a hunch that it's not a good thing. Feng, we have to be careful."
"Yes."
After my reminder, Feng tightened his grip on the Japanese sword. At the same time, because he slid forward for a while, the face of the shadow became slightly clearer.
"That's... a boat?"
When I saw the outline of the thing clearly, I felt that the pole in my hand seemed to have become heavier, and... Judging from the feel, it seemed that someone was trying to grab the pole from me under the water.
"Be careful, Maple! There are enemies in the river!"
After saying this, I pulled the pole hard and finally succeeded in snatching the pole back, but at the same time, we were getting closer and closer to the shadow.
As the distance got closer, we finally saw the true face of the shadow clearly. What appeared on the water in front was a huge battleship! There was even a turret on the bow of the battleship. This ship was much smaller than our broken ship.
I don't know if the raft is dozens of times bigger.
On the deck of the ship, there were several soldiers wearing nacui uniforms. Now, the ship was less than a few meters away from us. At this moment, I actually smiled.
"Feng, get ready to grab the boat."
"OK!"
"In that case, 1, 2, 3, come on!"
The two of us jumped up from the raft at the same time, and immediately jumped onto this huge battleship, and these nacui soldiers didn't seem to expect that we would pull this trick.
Although the opponents have guns in their hands, it may not have much impact on us, because we can feel that not many of these people have magic power, so to us, these people are not even qualified to threaten us.
, we... completely have the advantage.
