God's family

"Speaking of which, why are you going to the Wing Clan this time?" Gal sat sideways on the back of the riding beast for transportation, lazily leaning on the high neck of the riding beast, fiddling with his hands lyre in.The intermittent beautiful melody lingers in the ears, making people feel relaxed, and even the fatigue of the journey dissipates.

Behind him, the elf Theodore sat elegantly and leisurely, and seemed to be enjoying the surrounding scenery in a very good mood. From time to time, he hummed the songs of the old elf language with the sound of Gal's piano, and the riding beast under him was even more in harmony with the surrounding scenery. He is so telepathic that he doesn't even need to control the rein, and his steps are fast and steady.

Beside the two, Roger and Lacente sat on another riding beast and walked side by side. Although this riding beast was also docile and well-behaved, compared with the relaxed and happy companion, it was obviously more restless and frightened. , as if he was afraid that if he was not careful, he would cause any dissatisfaction with the black-haired man who was holding the white-haired boy in his arms on his back.

Fei was the only one sitting on the back of the third beast. As a paladin, his ability to control the mount was obviously very good. Although he was not as popular with animals as Theodore, he was not as deterrent as Lacente. But it can still make the riding beast, which is more irritable than other walking beasts, obedient.

"...Can I not say it?" Roger rubbed his cheeks in a tangled struggle, really wondering if the two former victims would turn against each other if they found out that they were going to endanger the Yi Clan.

"I'm not trying to get some secret out of you, you don't have to be so nervous." Gal chuckled, stopped what he was doing, sat up slightly, and his expression turned serious, "Do you want to go What to do, maybe it will mean we need to approach the Wings differently."

"Speaking of which, I also looked up some information about the Wing Clan before I set off, but I found that they seem to be a little mysterious, and not much news has been spread." Roger looked at Gall expectantly, "Do you know anything about them? ?”

"Probably know a little bit." Gal nodded, "The winged race is a proud race, even more proud than——" the elf race, Gal glanced at Theodore behind him, and wisely swallowed the latter analogy Stomach.

Theodore raised his eyebrows, with an attitude of "you're still sensible".

Gargan smiled: "They think they belong to the race of the sky, and they are also the closest to the gods."

"Hmph, ignorant arrogance." Theodore snorted softly and commented.Obviously, the phrase "existence closest to the gods" is a bit too hateful, and Theodore, who has always believed that elves are the noblest and purest race, immediately fell to the bottom of his impression of the winged race.

"They are relatively isolated and don't like contact with other races on land and in the sea. Although the area of ​​their activities is in the high mountains in the north, the larger cities are located in the sky, and they are veritable cities in the sky." Gal's expression looked Looking forward, "I don't know how they built the city in the air. Maybe it's a large wind magic circle, or maybe it's the power of the winged gods."

City in the sky—this word really touched Roger's excitement, and he couldn't help thinking of a green island floating in the sea of ​​clouds, and the island was lined with beautiful buildings. ... I hope his mission goal this time is not the power source of the sky city floating in the air, Roger prayed, otherwise it would be Alexander who destroyed such a city.

"By the way, it's probably because the wings of most winged people are pure white. They especially admire white, and think that white is the most noble and pure color." Gal looked at the white hair on Roger's head, very pleased, " You will be very welcome."

Roger was slightly embarrassed, and scratched his hair wordlessly.

"Compared to white, they hate black very much and even hate black, thinking that it is the color of demons, dirty, filthy, and evil." When he turned his eyes to Lacente, Gal showed sympathy tactfully, "I suggest that in Before entering the domain of the Wing Clan, we should find a small spell or potion that can change the color of the hair and pupils, at least to cover all the black, otherwise it may be difficult to move forward."

"I really don't know the so-called race." Theodore continued to express his opinion, with a sense of superiority that he didn't bother to hide in his tone.

... enough of you racists!Roger subtly looked away and rubbed the space between his brows.He sincerely hoped that before meeting the Wing Clan, Theodore could restrain his arrogant attitude of "the elves are the real beauty, and the Wing Clan is really weak!"

"Cough, anyway, that's about all I want to say at the moment." Gall recalled Roger's thoughts, and there was no hint of persecution in his warm dark blue eyes, "I wanted to ask you what you were doing in the Wing Clan earlier. , It is also because of the above habits of the Yi people. If it is a friendly visit and it is an official way, it is probably no problem to enter their city, but if it is just a private action, it is difficult even to enter the northern mountain area, especially Needless to say, sneaking into the city that sits in the sky."

Roger nodded, indicating that he had understood, and then smiled helplessly: "Actually, even I myself don't know where the exact destination should be. I... want to pick up something. I just know that the thing is in the Wing Clan, but there is no accurate information on where it is in the Wing Clan." After a pause, Roger glanced at the thoughtful Gall and Theodore, and said cruelly, "I There is an item on my body that can sense that thing, but it can only be used when it is close. However, according to the past situation, the destination is probably the temple of the Wing Clan—I think you probably guessed it What is it?"

Gall and Theodore looked at each other, and they both saw clearly from each other's eyes.

"You...will use the proper method, right?" Theodore asked after hesitating for a moment.

"I don't know. I don't want to deceive you, so I can't guarantee it." Roger lowered his head, rubbed his head as if comforted by Lacente, and continued nervously but firmly, "I can only assure you, from the bottom of my heart. Deep down I don’t want to do this, if there are other ways, I won’t use improper means.”

Roger's answer made the atmosphere in the team stiff and depressed. After a long time, Gal asked softly, "Why did you accept such a task?"

"Because the situation does not allow me to refuse, and..." Roger looked at Lacent who was silent but hugging his shoulders in a protective gesture, and pursed his lips, "And I also have selfish intentions, I Need to get that."

Roger never thought of taking the metal fragment back to Bishop Lawrence, he only knew that Nexant needed it, desperately, so he went to get it for Nexant.It’s just that there is no third person who knows what Layson is special about human beings, so Roger has no way to reveal it, and can only blame it on his own needs—of course, from the perspective of the gods who want to obtain metal fragments to please the "human gods", he One's own needs are also logical.

"You are my friend, and the Winged Clan and the Elven Clan have no friendship, but my pride does not allow me to assist you in doing such a thing." Theodore's emerald green eyes flashed a hint of embarrassment and cunning, "So if I get to that point, I can only help each other. Anyway, I just went to visit the Wing Clan."

"I agree." Gal hooked the corners of his mouth, "As a powerless bard, fighting, killing and other things are not suitable for me at all. I will not leak the secret, but please forgive me for not being able to help you." Up more."

"This is enough, thank you." Roger replied sincerely, a big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He was right.

Since they are acting together, his purpose will be exposed sooner or later.Rather than being noticed by others, it is better to take the initiative to confess and strive for frankness and leniency.Theodore is sincere about friendship, while Gal looks gentle but has a kind of indifference that has nothing to do with himself. Roger never expects the two people to help him, as long as they don't stop him in turn, he will enough.

"What about him? Is he reliable?" After reconciling the conflicts between them, Theodore immediately turned his attention to Fei who had been silently trailing behind everyone.

"He was sent by Bishop Lawrence to assist me in completing the mission." Roger made a pun - before the mission was completed, Fei was trustworthy, but because he belonged to Bishop Lawrence, after completing the mission, he needed to be careful Take precautions and even wait for an opportunity to eradicate them.

Theodore and Gal immediately understood.

"In short, no matter where that thing is, go find something that can change the color of your hair and eyes before going to the Wing Clan!" Roger suggested in a good mood. People work lightheartedly, "Gal has any suggestions?"

"You really think of me as an encyclopedia?" Gal laughed, his slender fingers twisted his long light blue hair a few times, revealing a bit of mischievous flaunting, "However, I do have a suggestion! "

"What is it?" Roger's eyes lit up.

"Go to the dwarves." Gall said decisively, "The canyon area where the dwarves are located is not far from the wing tribe, and most of the dwarves' eyes, hair, and beards are dark or even black. Conflict, they must have a knack for masking the original color."

"Dwarves..." Roger's eyes darkened, feeling a little helpless, "Dwarves are also a race that is not easy to get along with..."

In fact, dwarves are not exclusive, they are extraordinary forge smiths, able to trade with people of almost all races.But at the same time, they are also very emotional, and they have a clear distinction between likes and dislikes. If you close their eyes, you will almost respond to any request, but if you make them feel dissatisfied, you will definitely not be able to go around.

This kind of personality that causes headaches for all races is especially obvious for dwarves living in dwarf settlements. As for dwarves who have been trading with other races outside for a long time, most of them restrain their emotions.It's a pity that the target of Roger and the others this time is the dwarves in the dwarf settlement, which is quite a matter of luck.

"We need a surefire way to make dwarves like us..." Roger rested his chin, narrowed his red eyes slightly, for some reason, Theodore and Gal shivered involuntarily, and both looked away .

Some people, in fact, should not be offended...
