A leaf floated in the air. It moved unnaturally and slowly rolled up. Then, for some unknown reason, the leaf suddenly shrank like a discarded paper ball.
Reina sighed and slowly lay on the ground.
"Are you from the Taru people?" Nolan suddenly asked.
"No, I've never even heard of this race. May I ask if we are similar to the Taru people?" Demon King asked.
"No, it's just a feeling."
"It's probably because you saw Ye training, and you're master and disciple, right? I heard that the Taru people have a tradition of masters taking their disciples out to train," Almis suddenly said.
"Hey, are we Taru people, master?"
Reina, who was halfway into the tent, suddenly sat up.
Slap!
Demon King hit her head with a karate chop.
"Think about it with your brain and you'll know it's not. We just happened to be doing the same thing."
"Oh ~"
Reina lay back down with her head in her hands.
Nolan looked at the two quietly and then said, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen anyone train with Ye in a long time."
She didn't expect that the people of this world would also discover this training method. It was really surprising.
"That's probably because this training method is too ancient."
After hearing Almis's words, Demon King's heart was greatly impacted.
Ancient …
"Apprenticeship education is not popular now. After all, it's too inefficient."
Inefficient …
Demon King was greatly impacted.
"If master knows, he'll tear you apart again, Almis." Nolan, who noticed Demon King's expression, immediately said.
"Tsk ~" Almis seemed to restrain himself after hearing the word "master".
At this time, there was a rhythmic breathing sound. The two turned their heads and found that Reina was already asleep, and sleeping very soundly.
Demon King sighed and stood up to carry her into the tent. When he came out, Nolan was silently looking at him.
He didn't do anything. The tent behind him suddenly zipped up. Mikeji, who was curled up at the side, opened one of his eyes slightly and then slowly closed it.
The red charcoal flickered in the flames, making crackling sounds from time to time. They didn't know if it was an illusion, but the insects around them seemed to have quieted down a lot.
The two silently looked at the bonfire and didn't say a word.
At this time, Demon King turned his head and looked at Nolan. He suddenly heard a click and saw a small black hole in front of him. It was an exquisite weapon, straight and hollow, about thirty to forty centimeters long. There was a metal hook shaped metal handle.. Nolan's index finger was resting on the metal...
"Is this the weapon that you used to save Reina? Can you let me see it? "
Demon King said without changing his expression.
Nolan's expression was extremely calm. She silently looked at Demon King, while Almis on the side didn't say a word.
"Yes, please."
He didn't know how she did it, but the gun quickly turned around and pointed the handle at Demon King.
Demon King took it with interest and played with it up and down. He put his finger on the trigger and pointed the muzzle at his eyes. He also opened his eyes wide to see what was inside the barrel.
But in the end, he didn't pull the trigger. Instead, he returned the gun to Nolan, just like how Nolan handed the gun to him.
"What an exquisite weapon. What is it called? What function does it have? "
Demon King asked.
Nolan didn't rush to answer. She took out a piece of white cloth and put it on the ground.
"This weapon is called a magic gun. It's a weapon invented by the Dragon Boat Empire. It can use an explosion to launch loaded bullets, and it can also use the user's magic to launch magic bullets."
As she spoke, she skillfully disassembled the magic gun, neatly placed the parts on the white cloth, and then wiped each part and applied some oil.
Nolan was very patient and very careful. Demon King also looked at her with great interest.
"Can I ask a question?"
She suddenly broke the silence.
"Go ahead."
"Your Excellency shouldn't be a human."
Suddenly, the surroundings fell into a dead silence. Demon King's face was a bit ugly. Under the illumination of the fire, it was a bit sallow.
Why does she know?
"I can only say that I'm not a shapeshifter." Demon King replied.
Nolan faintly smiled. Her expression was as calm as the calm water.
"So, this is not a coincidence. You are not travelers, but people who came to find me? But I don't remember doing anything that's worth capturing. "
"No, we are just ordinary travelers."
"Hmph ~ After this guy heard my warning, he insisted on coming to take a look. Nolan often messes around like this …" Almis on the side made a sound of displeasure.
"I'm sorry, Almis."
Nolan said in a light tone.
Looking at the two strange people, Demon King couldn't help but smile, and the little doubts just disappeared.
Well, he was just thinking about how to explain it to Reina tomorrow. Now it seems that he doesn't have to worry about it.
"See, others are laughing at you." Almis whispered.
Nolan didn't think much of it. She assembled her pistol and said to herself, "It's done."
"I'm curious how Almis found me. Can you tell me?"
Demon King asked.
"This question can only be answered by him."
Almis was silent. When it didn't speak, it was like an ordinary magic car.
"I'm a life form that attaches itself to objects. The earliest humans called us Immortals of the Stone, which is to say, stones that can talk. No one knows how we were born, including ourselves. The meaning of our existence seems to be to observe the world. We're either asleep or observing the world. It's been like this for millions of years."
Demon King was a little surprised. It was the first time he knew of such a magical existence.
"Hearing this, you should be able to imagine how different we are from other life forms. As for why I can detect your identity, I can only say that the world we observe is different, that's all."
Almis's words sounded a little difficult to understand.
"I see, I completely understand." Demon King touched his chin and said to himself.
"Ah! You can understand? "Nolan looked at Demon King in surprise.
"No, what I understand is that I will never know how he found me. It's just like how we know that bats can use sound to locate their position, but we can't understand how they use sound to locate their position." Demon King said.
Nolan nodded in agreement.
"Speaking of which, why did you travel together, and for what purpose?"
Demon King was very interested in the two. He had seen all kinds of people, but people like Nolan were still rare.
This was the most interesting thing about humans. Even if they looked the same, they could show a completely different personality from other animals. This was one of the reasons why Demon King preferred humans. You could never guess what kind of person you would meet next.
"Me? Many people have asked me this question, but my answer is different every time. That's probably because I don't know why I embarked on this journey."
Nuo Lan smiled as she looked at the fire. Her calm eyes had a trace of fire in them.
"I've already forgotten my motive for traveling. If I really have to say, I can only say that I don't want to stop traveling. When I think of the many unknown, happy, difficult, and even sad things waiting for me ahead, I want to continue moving forward."
"Even if it's sad things?"
"Yes, even so, I don't want to stop. Even if it's necessary to kill, I want to continue."
Demon King was silent for a few seconds, then she asked, "Can you understand?"
"No, I can't understand at all."
"I think so."
"Then what about Almis?" Demon King looked at the magic carriage.
"Me? I was originally a stone statue that was worshipped, but one day, I wanted to see this vast world. When I woke up, I attached myself to the magic carriage and happened to meet Nolan, so we traveled together. "
"It's just like fate." Demon King couldn't help but sigh.
"Fate ~ To be honest, I don't really believe in this cunning thing. Calling a coincidence that happened fate is really irrefutable, and it's also very annoying. This is clearly the result of my own choice, so why is the credit given to it?" Almis complained.
Demon King and Nolan couldn't help but chuckle.
"Then what about you? Why did you embark on this journey?"
Nolan asked.
"Me?"
Demon King stretched and said, "Because this guy kept saying that he wanted to defeat the Demon King, so I accompanied him on this journey."
After his voice disappeared, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. This atmosphere was maintained for a few seconds.
"That's too much, we clearly told the truth."
Almis said angrily.
Nolan remained silent, as if the two of them had seen through the Demon King's evasiveness.
"Alright, to be honest, I don't know myself. Probably to find some fun and kill some time, or to find the meaning of the journey, or to find my heart."
Demon King said again.
However, the other party remained silent. Demon King's expression was a bit ugly, but the other party didn't continue to ask.
"Then it's probably confusion."
Nolan's words made Demon King's ears immediately turn red.
"Yeah."
He sighed and said.
For some reason, he felt a bit sad.
How could Demon King be sad, he had to find a way to change his mood.
"Right, can you tell me how Almis warned you? I want to know how he described me before we met."
"Ah! It's not good to say that. "Almis's tone was a bit flustered.
Nolan said with a smile, "He said that there was an ancient life form nearby that could plunge the world into darkness, and told me to quickly run away before I was discovered."
Hearing this, Demon King couldn't help but laugh.
"Hey! I'm angry. "
"I'm sorry, Almis."
"Hmph ~ Your attitude isn't sincere, I won't accept your apology, I'm angry, good night!"
The two of them couldn't help but laugh even louder.
At this time, Reina was still sleeping in the tent, and Mikeji helplessly covered his ears.
