Gate of the Cross

Chapter 26 Fallen Leaves by the Road

I don't know what Nanali said to Elhua, so she controlled his excited words and deeds, so the two sides remained silent until Manis came back to the seal with a whole team of soldiers.

"Warriors, the soldier asked me to tell you that I would like to thank you for your contribution to the Kingdom of France. Now we will arrange your rest and future rewards. Because the soldiers' regiment also suffered heavy losses this time, I hope you can forgive the poor hospitality.

He turned to Xinjie and Gene, "Mr. Xinjie, Mr. Gene, please come here. Someone wants to see you."

"We?" Gene pointed to himself and Xinjie, "Do you think someone wants to see me and him?"

"Yes, an adult wants to see you." Manis had a smile on his face, but he refused to say more.

Gene thought for a long time and didn't know who would look for them at this time, so he looked at Xinjie, meaning to make him decide.

"Just the two of us?" Xinjie asked.

Manis's attitude is very respectful, "Yes."

"Then let's go."

"Wait!" Nanali hurried over when she saw that Xinjie and Gene were about to leave with Manis.

"You... are leaving now?" She asked in a hesitant tone.

"Yes, someone wants to see us...what's the matter?" Xinjie stopped and asked back.

"Well, it's okay... By the way, after all, we fought together. When we saw you leave, we came to say hello. Goodbye." After saying this, he didn't look back and left. He walked to the side of the snowy dragon soul and no longer looked at them.

Gene looked at her back, "It's inexplicable."

Xinjie nodded, "I agree."

When Manis saw that the two had nothing to do, he took them away.

"Why didn't you tell them?" Seeing the two leave, the snow dragon soul sighed and asked Nanali beside him, "Maybe there will be no chance to meet in the future."

"What's the use of telling them to sympathize with me?" Nanali shook her head, "It's okay if we don't see each other. After all, we originally met by chance... But you, Sister Dragon Soul, I'm really sorry for this time. I made you go there for nothing and got nothing."

The snow dragon soul pinched Nanali's little hand and said with a smile, "Are we still polite? Originally, I was invited by you to do this investigation, but it's not for anything in return.

"Thank you, Sister Dragon Soul." Nanali smiled happily, closed her eyes and leaned her head against the chest of the snow dragon soul, with a look of enjoyment. The snow dragon soul stretched out its hand and gently stroked her head. In the eyes of others, they are really a pair of good friends. I am one of them. Many people think so.

Ignoring the envious and jealous eyes of others towards her and Nanali, Xueyu Dragon Soul looked at the direction of Xinjie and Gene's departure and said in a voice that only he could hear: "Isn't there really a chance to meet..."

"Sister Dragon Soul, what are you talking about?"

"Nothing, I mean, let's prepare it too."

Xinjie and Gene followed Manis to the second floor of Lisheya Fort. On the way, Gene couldn't help asking, "Marnis, who wants to see us? Why is it so mysterious?"

Manis didn't look back, but said, "It's not that I want to hide it. This is the request of the adult. He said that you will know when you meet."

"Hey, so he still knows me. I really want to see who it is." Gene was interested by Manis's words and said energetically.

Finally, Manis took them to the front and back of a room on the second floor and left, saying that he had other things to do and let them go in by themselves.

"What the hell is going on? It's mysterious." Gene said and pushed the door open.

"Gien Grey Mane, you did a good job this time!" A familiar voice came and made Gene open his mouth, "Tuan...tuan chief, why are you?"

Xinjie followed Gene and saw that the speaker was tall, wearing standard silver knight armor, and the dialogue between him and Gene, which made it easy for Xinjie to guess his identity - Janette, the head of the Knights of the Kingdom of France, who was also the mentor of all the knights.

In addition, there was another person in the room. He stood next to Arnet, with his back to Xinjie and Gene. After hearing Gene's voice, he turned around and said to Xinjie with a smile, "I haven't seen you for a long time."

This person is Disol.

"Is he the new hero? Gene Gray Mane, you're really right. It's really a facial paralysis, hahaha..."

After hearing Disol's name, Arnett looked up and down at Xinjie and laughed without hesitation.

"Why are the regiment commander and the chief swordsman here?" Gene's forehead is sweaty. He did say such a thing, but you can't just say that! Is there anyone who talks about others face to face?

"Of course it's because of you two." Hearing Gene's words, Arnett smiled and said that he looked in a good mood, "This has not happened in the kingdom for a long time. 'The archers' Guild returned, and it was the great swordsmen and noble knights who saved the corps of the Kingdom of France', but the king praised you face to face. Thinking about the expression on La Merino's face now, it must be wonderful.

"You did a good job this time, Xinjie, you told me in detail about this incident. I also want to know what is the sacred thing that can cause heavy losses to the whole delegation of the Kingdom of France."

Disore is not like Arnet, but he also has a smile on his face and seems to be in a good mood, but he is obviously more interested in the context of the whole thing.

"This is the thing..." Xinjie said.

Time is like the fine sand in your hand, always flowing through your fingers inadvertently. It has been a month since Xinjie and Gene returned from the underground maze expedition.

A month ago, the Kingdom of France issued a notice that for some reason, a mysterious maze appeared under the mourning hall. The soldiers of the Kingdom of France, with the help of several adventurers from the alien world, launched an investigation and finally succeeded in finding out the truth. It turned out that it was caused by the demon clan. Therefore, the members of the regiment fought bravely with the adventurers and finally succeeded in defeating the shadow of the demon who controlled the maze and gave the people a peaceful and stable life.

The notice also nominated special nominations for the Archers' Guild, the Swordsman' Union, the Knights of France, the Great Church of the Kingdom of France, and the soldiers who have always done their duty in the Kingdom of France. Xinjie and Gene, as the only representatives of swordsmen and knights, their names also appeared in this notice, which greatly increased their popularity and were greeted from time to time when they entered and exited the Adventurer Hotel.

Even Amon, who specializes in the title, also awarded them the title of "fallen leaves by the roadside". I heard that this title is also related to professional promotion, but the two are still far from the requirements of professional promotion, and they don't care too much about Amon's words. As for the title of "fallen leaves by the roadside", it is just a symbol.

Amon is a little fat man wandering around Dongmen Hospital every day, and his presence is like Akalin.

It was not until a long time later that Amon and his twin brother Eminem had a strong sense of existence. When they were known as the most hated people in France, Xinjie remembered this matter again.
