Chapter 174 (2/2)

Loren lowered her head slowly, and Leia continued: ”there are those war dancers who have followed your expedition. They are constantly looking for you, and even nearly overturned the whole morning star forest. Many guys also vowed to avenge you - I'm afraid there may be a civil war in the eastern forest before the Knights of Shenlin Castle invade, and it's because of you!”

”I... I didn't expect this.” the black haired wizard raised his hands reluctantly and his voice was much lower: ”in fact, I thought at first that I wouldn't have much willingness...”

”There won't be many guys willing to do stupid things for you, will there?”

”... yes, that's it,” he admitted.

”Although I don't know why you become like this, Loren, you are not alone.” the fairy looked at him lonely: ”you have trustworthy friends and people who can rely on each other. Not everything must be carried by yourself. That's too heavy for you!”

Liya's voice was as quiet as ever, even with a tremor. There seemed to be some pleading in her expression. She expected the black haired wizard to promise her, believe her, and even let Loren have an illusion that she would not refuse herself no matter what she asked now.

It's really... Beyond the temptation of imagination. Unfortunately, I have to refuse.

”Why?!”

”Because that LUT infinite would never agree to let me take a strong dancer who could even threaten him to go to eboden.” Loren shook his head: ”of course, this is just my guess. More importantly, I can't trust him.”

”Although he said he would keep his promise, his credibility is infinitely close to zero - I can't protect everyone. Eboden will be very dangerous. Even I'm not sure if I can protect myself, so I can only go alone.”

”Then don't go at all. Why do you have to promise that bastard?!”

”Because his power is more powerful than expected, it is more terrible than the count of shenlinbao and even the whole principality of lottel. It is not just their apparent strength, but that they can chase and kill anyone at any time and anywhere. They have no chance to escape!”

With a helpless sigh, Lauren seemed to be talking to himself: ”I can't believe that such a person will keep his promise. As long as he has the opportunity, he will still threaten me with my friends - I don't even know who I should trust!”

”You can trust me, Loren.” Leia whispered softly, her eyes were soft, completely without her usual ability and disdain. She just stared at the black haired wizard quietly: ”I can follow you to the eternal night forest without frowning - it's the same with that eboden!”

”No, I need you to do another thing for me this time.” Loren shook his head. ”If I'm alone, even if I can't complete the task, I'm confident to escape. The real important thing is that this guy can't hold me any more.”

”So at least before you see me with your own eyes, please don't believe any news about me, and don't try to contact me. Protect Ayn Rand and yourself, and form an alliance with shenlinbao and the Principality of lottel. This guy is very cunning, but fortunately his influence hasn't penetrated into the ancient wood forest.”

In other words, there should be no Elven dogleg to work for him - of course, it is more likely that it is too remote for the night watchman to send forces to infiltrate here.

After struggling for a moment, the Female Elf sighed gently and stared at Lauren with a bit of self abandonment in her voice: ”you still can't trust me, can you?”

”Indeed... But that was once.” Lauren's face showed a bright smile: ”if I can't even trust the life-saving benefactor who saved my life and brought me back from the eternal night forest, who can I trust?”

”For my mentor, I can work for LUT infinite, for you... I can let him die!”
