After saying goodbye to Ai Mi in the morning, the two of them continued on their journey. After a few days of observation, Reina felt that her master seemed to be rushing somewhere, so their pace was much faster.
Although it was good that she didn't have to carry a heavy bag, she still wanted to be able to travel slowly like before.
"Master, where are we going?"
Reina followed behind her master. The two of them walked on foot, only stopping for a moment in front of beautiful scenery.
"The Kalaf Mountains."
The Demon King only said a place.
Reina didn't know why her master wanted to go there, but she felt it was strange. They didn't have a fixed destination before, but now they had a goal.
"Master, why are we going there?"
She couldn't help but ask.
The Demon King didn't answer at first, but under Reina's coaxing and pestering, he finally opened his mouth.
"Your family might be there."
The light of the fire shone on Reina's face. Her mouth was half open, and there were rice grains on the corner of her mouth. She looked at the Demon King in shock.
She was silent for a moment, as if she had something on her mind. She put down the bowl full of rice and wiped her mouth.
"Don't you want to find your family? Maybe they've been looking for you. "
The Demon King asked.
Reina nodded, but the Demon King knew that this wasn't a confirmation, but a protest.
Maybe she was afraid, afraid that the family she had never met before wouldn't accept her, or afraid of receiving a sad answer.
But even so, the Demon King would still help her find her family, because he couldn't keep her by his side.
"Give up being a hero."
The Demon King suddenly said. Reina suddenly raised her head. She didn't understand why her master suddenly said that, but these words caused a magnitude 12 earthquake in her little heart.
"W-why?"
She held back her tears, her heart full of self-blame. Did she disappoint her master? Did she cause trouble for him? Was she too stupid? Was she too annoying?
"Master, I'll work harder! I! "
"That's not your problem."
That was his problem.
Reina was the only disciple that he couldn't be cruel to. She was the only disciple that was brought along by the Demon King's main body, and also the only female disciple.
She was gifted. Although she was not enlightened at times, she had intuition that ordinary people did not have. The biggest obstacle preventing her from becoming a hero was probably the Demon King himself.
Reina lowered her head. She was very depressed. The last time she was so sad was when her mother passed away.
"Master, you don't want me anymore?"
She asked in a mosquito-like voice. She had probably used up all of her strength to say such a sentence.
"How could that be? I have been your master all my life. How could I abandon you?" the Demon King said.
"Then why? You want to send me away … "
Sure enough, she had noticed it.
She held her arms in front of her eyes as bean-sized tears fell uncontrollably.
The Demon King's eyes dimmed. He had never felt so powerless before. He put his hand on Reina's head.
"Why would I send you away? I just … want to see your family. If I see your father, I have to thank him properly for sending such a good disciple to my side."
The Demon King's words made Reina burst into laughter.
"Really?"
"Yes …"
At this time, Mr. Ball sighed silently and slowly closed his eyes.
…
The journey continued. The two of them passed by several small cities. The Demon King bought some beautiful clothes for Reina. She seemed to like the pair of black magic boots very much and refused to change them.
They bought a lot of food and made preparations for a long journey. Soon, they arrived at the foot of the Kevlar Mountains. The foot of the mountain was already deserted. There was only one small town within a hundred miles.
There was a winding river here. The river water was melted from the snow on the mountain, so this town had a unique name. It was called Snow Tear City. This was a lonely city, standing between a grassland and yellow soil.
At dusk, two unusual visitors came to this city. One of them was a man dressed in black with not a speck of dust. The other was a girl with blonde hair who looked like a noble's daughter. Beside them was a small machine that could talk.
The first feeling that Snow Tear City gave the two of them was desolation. There was not a single blade of grass in the city. There were residents herding sheep everywhere. There were more sheep than people here.
The road was full of black sheep dung. The stench was everywhere in this city. Its appearance did not match its name.
Both sides of the road were mostly houses made of mud bricks. There were not many wooden buildings. The pedestrians on the road looked like they had not bathed for many years. When they got close, they could smell the stench.
When the two of them entered the city, they attracted the attention of the passersby who had nothing to do. They paid more attention to Reina's body. Clean clothes probably meant wealth here. A few people quietly followed behind the two of them. Perhaps they were looking for an opportunity to steal the bag on the man's waist.
"Master, this place is very uncomfortable."
Reina could not help but say.
"Yes."
The Demon King did not deny it.
"I can sense hostility." Mr. Ball turned around to take a look, and the people behind him smiled at him unscrupulously, as if they were gauging his price.
At this moment, a few unfamiliar men blocked the two of them.
"Travelers?"
The leader was very tall. His arms were thick and the scar on his face looked a little scary.
The Demon King glanced at him and knew what they were planning.
"Looking for someone."
He said lightly. He wanted to pass by them, but suddenly a hand blocked his way. "Who are you looking for? I know everyone here. Tell me a name and I promise to help you find it. "
"I'm looking for someone from the High Mountain Tribe."
The Demon King suddenly looked at the other party and said.
Hearing this, the other party was stunned for a moment. Then, he and the people beside him laughed.
"Master, what are they laughing about?"
Reina frowned and asked.
"Master? Hahaha!! "
They laughed even more wildly. Just as the Demon King was about to lose his patience, the other party rolled up his sleeves. Above his arms were tattooed, like some kind of magic.
"I'm from the High Mountain Tribe! Why are you looking for me? " As he spoke, he took out a saber. His arm emitted light, and the saber flew up and flew around his arms.
Just as the other party was about to grab the knife, an unexpected hand grabbed the knife first.
"Ah!"
The strong man was stunned. The people around him immediately pulled out their weapons.
"I heard that the people of the High Mountain Tribe can tear steel with their bare hands. I wonder if it's true?" After the Demon King finished speaking, he stabbed the tip of the knife at his left hand. He used force with both hands and crushed the knife.
Seeing this, the others were so scared that they quickly took a few steps back and ran away.
At this moment, a limping young man not far away stared at them with wide eyes.
