"You're lucky. If it was a little bit more, you would have to go to the cemetery to meet her."
Fangzheng examined the purple-haired girl carefully after bandaging her wound. Then, he turned around and said to the pigtailed girl sitting on the chair behind him.
"Thank … Thank you …"
Facing this mysterious figure in a white robe, Mine didn't know what to say. After all, this night was simply too exciting for them. Just now, Hill almost died … Thinking until here, Mine couldn't help but tremble.
"Is the wound still painful?"
Fangzheng looked up at Mine and asked. He had just checked their injuries. The purple-haired girl, Hill, had a penetrating wound. Fortunately, it didn't hurt her arteries and heart. It would be fine as long as it was bandaged up. On the contrary, Mine's condition was more serious. Her right arm had a comminuted fracture. Her left hand also had bone fractures and some internal injuries.
If it was under normal circumstances, this kind of injury could be healed by Fangzheng's holy light. But now, Fangzheng was using a spirit stone, so he could only use the skills on this spirit stone. Fortunately, this spirit stone also had the ability to make medicine, so Fangzheng was also at the side at this moment. Soon, he saw two bottles of strange red potions inexplicably appearing in his hand.
"Come, drink this."
Fangzheng threw one of the bottles to Mine and opened the other bottle at the same time. This kind of potion was a "health recovery" in the game. Of course, there was definitely no health bar in reality. But Fangzheng had already tested it. As long as it was about healing wounds, this potion could completely heal them.
After all, now both of them were basically at a critical level. They would be almost healed after drinking this potion.
"What is this?"
Mine used her relatively usable left hand to take the potion that Fangzheng threw over and looked at it suspiciously. As an assassin, they had always been careful. After all, they were wanted criminals on the list. Once they ate something that they shouldn't eat, then their ending wouldn't be good.
"Healing potion. Drink it, then sleep. You will be fine the next day."
"…"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Mine still had some doubts. She looked at the blood bottle in her hand and then looked at Fangzheng. She was hesitant. She didn't know if she should listen to him.
"It's fine if you don't want to drink it, but this medicine is only effective when you're injured. After a while, the effect will weaken."
Fangzheng shrugged. Then, he picked up another bottle of potion and poured it into the purple-haired girl's mouth.
"Cough, cough cough!!"
As the potion was poured into the purple-haired young lady's mouth, she immediately began coughing. But after a few moments, her pained expression gradually calmed down and she fell into a deep slumber.
Seeing this, Mine was silent for a moment. Finally, she opened the bottle cap and drank the potion.
With the potion in her stomach, Mine soon felt a warm power emerging from her body, spreading quickly to her limbs. Very soon, the pain that was still faintly felt much better. His body that was exhausted from the battle today also relaxed a lot at this moment.
"You … Who exactly are you? Are you the Grim Reaper? "
"Grim Reaper? Haha, that's just a nickname that those idiots gave us. In fact, we're just assassins. "
"Assassin … Assassin?"
Got to say, this answer surprised Mine. Regarding the true identity of these 'Grim Reapers', the internal members of the Night Raid had discussed many times, but there was no accurate answer. But Mine would never have thought that they were actually a group of assassins.
"You're assassins? Then who commissioned you …? "
"Miss, we're different from the assassins that you think."
Fangzheng shook his head.
"We're assassins. We have our own beliefs and creeds. We fight to protect the people's free will. This is the reason why we're here, do you understand? "
"I … I don't really understand …"
Mine didn't understand Fangzheng's answer, but she quickly changed the topic.
"But since your target is also the Empire, would you like to join forces with us and the Revolutionary Army?"
That's right, this was the true purpose of the Night Raid to find Fangzheng's group. Since the other party was also targeting the Empire, perhaps both sides could cooperate. This was also the instruction from the higher-ups of the Revolutionary Army. And now, since the other party appeared before her and saved her life, Mine thought that they could cooperate.
"Haha …"
However, after hearing Mine's words, Fangzheng only chuckled.
"I'm sorry, we don't intend to cooperate with you."
"Why?"
Hearing this answer, Mine was surprised, and Fangzheng stared at her.
"It seems that you don't understand what I mean, Miss. We're assassins. We fight to protect the people's free will. Therefore, when the people are oppressed, we will appear. Just like now, we're here to eliminate the higher-ups of the Empire who oppresses the people. But this doesn't mean that our target is the Empire. Any forces that try to suppress and force the people to surrender are our targets. "
With that said, Fangzheng narrowed his eyes.
"Even the Revolutionary Army is the same. If the Revolutionary Army does similar things, we will kill them mercilessly. So I'm sorry, we can't cooperate. "
"How can the Revolutionary Army do this kind of thing?"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Mine stood up and retorted loudly.
"Can you say no? After the Revolutionary Army controls the Empire? "
"This …"
Mine opened her mouth. She wanted to say no, but … she couldn't be sure about this. But then, Fangzheng's next words suddenly exploded her.
"And, personally, I don't want to cooperate with you because you're too unprofessional."
"Unprofessional?!"
Hearing this, Mine was so angry that she almost jumped up!
"We're the Imperial Capital's Night Raid that's feared by everyone! How are we unprofessional? "
"Isn't it just using the Teigu to bully people?"
Fangzheng glanced at Mine silently.
"No plan, no idea, completely relying on the power of the Teigu. Isn't this what you do? It may be quite effective to deal with those ordinary people, but in the face of a strong person of the same level, it will immediately expose the weakness of no organization and no discipline. "
"Woo …"
"Take today's battle as an example. Obviously, there is a forest next to you, but you have to swagger around on the street. Are you not retreating, but shopping? Also, when facing the enemy, you don't know the strength of the enemy and you rush forward. With your strength, you can obviously get rid of the enemy, but you have to fight … "
Speaking until here, Fangzheng shook his head. This Night Raid was simply a group of stragglers in his opinion. Another thing that made Fangzheng speechless was their dressing. This group of people seemed to be like Batman. They didn't change their clothes when they went out to fight. They dressed exactly the same as on the wanted poster. It was hard for people not to recognize them.
Just like the purple-haired girl, if she changed her clothes and hairstyle, it was easy to avoid people's attention.
As a result, she had to wear a cheongsam. Did she want to "look different" from the wanted poster?
Also, when you found that the opposite side was also a Teigu user, you didn't run away immediately but rushed forward directly. Who gave you the courage?
That was the result.
If it weren't for Fangzheng's timely help, perhaps the purple-haired girl would be fed to the dogs.
"You … you …"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Mine clenched her fists and wanted to refute, but she was completely speechless. Especially when she recalled the scene when the internal affairs officer was rescued on the execution ground, the other party didn't show up from the beginning to the end. The whole process was fast and neat. In contrast, every action of the Night Raid ended with a cat-and-mouse escape battle. In such a comparison, it seemed that her side was indeed not as clean as these assassins.
In addition, the previous battle was really embarrassing. At this moment, Mine had nothing to say.
"Well, you guys have a good rest. I will take you away tomorrow."
Fangzheng said casually, then turned and left the room, leaving Mine sulking.
Not long after Fangzheng walked out of the room, a figure appeared beside him.
"Teacher, I'm sorry. My identity was discovered."
"What happened?"
Fangzheng looked at Iyas and whispered. The latter half knelt on the ground.
"I followed your instructions to deal with the guard soldier hiding in the forest, but I didn't expect that the soldier was actually … Tatsumi …"
"Is he the companion that you and Shao mentioned?"
Fangzheng recalled for a moment and quickly remembered that the two of them mentioned that they had a companion named Tatsumi, but they were separated because of a monster attack on the road. Now it seemed that the one named Tatsumi had joined the guards …
"It doesn't matter. It won't be a problem even if I was discovered."
Fangzheng didn't care about his identity being exposed. The 'assassins' in this world had the same special skills as in the game. In the game, as long as an assassin blended into the crowd, he would immediately enter a safe state and wouldn't be discovered. It was the same in this world. As long as an assassin blended into the crowd, even if he didn't dress like a human, he would still be ignored by the guards.
Of course, please dress like a human during the cutscene animation.
"But …"
"You don't have to say anymore. You know what to do."
Fangzheng raised his hand and interrupted Iyas' explanation.
"It's fine if he doesn't hinder us. But if he becomes our enemy, then there will only be one ending for him … Remember this, Iyas."
"… Yes, Teacher."
After hearing Fangzheng's answer, Iyas pondered for a moment. Then, he lowered his head and replied softly.
"I understand."
