Two days later, the glorious legion led by Alvin finally made a difficult journey out of the deep mountain and arrived at the border of Kalsas.

Of course, it was the former border.

Now this place has long become a war zone where the Empire and Karthas compete for each other, and they are not sure which side this area belongs to, so they have to temporarily rest in this valley with tall and dense vegetation.

On the way here, after the battle with the Empire's Blue Dragon Knights, they encountered a lot of troubles, such as endless barbarians, evil monsters, and various wild beasts in the forest.

So, after forcibly fighting and fighting in succession, at this moment, the glorious legion, which was originally known as more than a thousand, was left with less than six hundred people.

At this point, they had already lost more than half of their losses and were exhausted. What's more, the purpose of their trip, the holy sword, was still not seen in the shadow.

“…”

Standing under the dense shade of trees, feeling the shade among the trees, Shirley looked around and looked at the team she was leading out of, and for a moment, she couldn't help but feel sad, not knowing what to say.

When she came out, she swore to her father that she would be able to complete that task beautifully and obtain the crucial holy sword to go back to fight against the emperor Barnhardt and the terrifying evil demon sword.

Can result...

This time, they got nothing except for losing their troops and generals!

The more she thought about it, the more she became, the more she became sadder, and the more she thought about it, she couldn't help but subconsciously stare at the back of the legendary great magician Jessica.

Then, her originally sunny and carefree eyes gradually became obscure.

That person, Shirley knew, the other party claimed to be the legendary magic, but what was the result?

He went to seize the dark wand, but the wand could not be taken out, and then he snatched the holy sword, but the holy sword was snatched away by the enemy first. From beginning to end, the other party basically did not play any role. Even during the battle, the other party's strength was far inferior to Haine. She didn't know whether the legendary magician who couldn't even open her own seal was really real!

or……

Is the other party really helping them with their hearts?

Thinking that the other party was clearly the teacher of Egbelt, the leader of the Imperial Black Dragon Magician Group, every time she asked the Empire to complete conspiracies one by one, she couldn't help but think about it, and gradually, her eyes when she looked at the other party became a little different.

"Hello!"

"Sherry?"

“??”

"Sherry, what are you thinking?"

At this time, Alvin gently patted Shirley on the shoulder behind her back, and finally made her come back to her senses.

"ah!"

"It's Alvin..."

Shirley almost kicked the ball behind without subconsciously.

However, when she saw that the person coming was Alvin, she slowly relaxed and stopped tensing the string under her heart.

"Give!"

"Are you tired?"

"Let's drink some water first!"

Alvin shook his head, then stretched out the water bag in his hand and handed it to the other party.

"Thanks……"

“!!”

"Ahem!!"

Sherry was not polite, so she took it directly and raised her head and took several big sips, and stopped until she was choked.

"ha!"

"I called you several times just now, but you didn't respond. What are you thinking?"

"Can you tell me?"

Alvin first looked around the soldiers sitting in the valley and looked at the members of the "Glorious Legion" who were in a very embarrassed body, lying or sitting all over the ground. He remembered the bold words and promises they had said when they set out from Kalsas, and a hint of gloom flashed across his face.

To be honest, facing this skinny reality, at this moment, Alvin had the heart to find a gap on the ground and drill into it.

“It’s nothing…”

"I was just thinking..."

"How should I explain to my father after I return to Karthas?"

After a pause, Shirley sighed again.

"When I came out there, there were more than a thousand people?"

"They are all elite veterans of Kalsas, and now..."

"There are only a few hundred left..."

"Even the holy sword is lost, you will definitely be scolded when you go back!"

After handing back the bag back, Shirley simply sat on the grass aside and stared at her feet blankly, without telling Elvin that she was actually suspicious of the identity of the great magician Jessica just now.

In fact, if she hadn't had some good feelings for Alvin around her, and Alvin had been rushing to the forefront of the empire, and even killed a lot of Imperial soldiers and made great contributions to Kalsas, she would probably have even Alvin had doubted it just now.

"And, the Empire has obtained the Magic Sword and now it has obtained the Holy Gladiator Gulisa. What should we do next with Kalsas?"

“Woo…”

"I'm a real fool!"

"A useless idiot!"

"Fool!"

As he spoke, Shirley began to sob and whimper.

She thought that she was obviously the princess of the Kingdom of Kalsas and a member of the royal family, but she had not fulfilled her obligations and responsibilities. She used to be arrogant and often sneaked out of the royal city to travel. She didn't learn her skills well, and even gave her teacher Keith a headache. But now, when the country was in trouble, she was shocked to find that her existence was so small and her ability was so weak. If she could be stronger, how could she fall to what she is now?

“…”

He opened his mouth and said a thousand words in Alvin, but in the face of cruel facts, he didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry!"

"It's not all your fault, I have a responsibility..."

"I will explain to the lord."

"Besides, their sacrifices are worth it. I believe that even without the Holy Sword, we will have other ways to resist the Empire!"

"Everything will get better slowly."

"I promise!"

In the end, Alvin could only say these empty words that he was afraid he was not willing to believe.

But thinking about it, the only holy sword that can fight against the magic sword and the empire is gone. When Karthas faces the emperor Barnhardt, who holds the magic sword, and Leon, the commander of the Azure Dragon Knights Order, who holds the holy sword, what should they use to resist?

To be honest, in Alvin's opinion, even if the commander of the Qinglong Knights did not have a holy sword, he could almost beat them alone, and he would not have a second sword to cut?

And how scary will be when the other party has the holy sword? He dare not imagine how much it will be.

“…”

Shirley did not respond to Alvin, but buried her head deeply between her arms and legs. She didn't want to look up at the tired soldiers around her, and the sadness and despair expressions on their faces like her.

She knew, Karthas, this time I was afraid I was really going to be over...

Even if that useless legendary magician Jessica really contacted the surrounding countries and let them unite to fight against the Empire with Kalsas, it would be useless, because there was no time in time. Judging from the current speed of the empire's attack, I am afraid that the city of Kalsas would have fallen without waiting for the other party to win over and unite the surrounding countries!

In fact, the last time, Kalsas City almost fell.

If the Imperial Army had not been advanced too fast at that time, the logistics could not keep up, and the raid from behind by Alvin and others was stormed and slammed, now I am afraid she would have become a poor princess who has lost her country.

"Sherry..."

Looking at the other party's helpless appearance, although Alvin wanted to reach out and hold the other party into his arms and comfort him, seeing the wounded who was concentrating and hard at using divine magic to heal the wounded, looking at the back of the slender but strong nun, in the end, his hand that he stretched out had to take it back embarrassedly.

"well……"

Then, all kinds of words turned into a short sigh.

“Hmm?”

Is there a situation?!

Just as Alvin was about to visit and greet the wounded soldiers around, he suddenly looked up and found that two of the Kalsas soldiers who were originally arranged to stand guard on the hillside were running down quickly towards them with a panic look on their faces?

“!!”

"The enemy is catching up?!"

At this time, Shirley suddenly jumped up, and then, she didn't bother to wipe the tears at the corner of her eyes, and directly widened her eyes, ran to the front first and gritted her teeth and asked.

"No, not the enemy!"

"Anyway!"

"Princess!"
