Chapter 383 It’s a pity that you are a girl
After the brief conversation, the expedition team was divided into two groups.
Since there were no casualties in the expedition team, most people chose to help Natsuki Subaru defeat the Witch Cult. Only a few older warriors chose to follow Crusch back to the royal capital.
In the dragon caravan returning to the royal city, there was a large head cut off from a white whale, which served as proof of victory over the white whale.
Of course, it's not just a proof. After parading in the capital with the head, it will definitely increase your prestige.
Crusch's goal is to be elected king, so prestige is essential, even though she is already the most prestigious of the five candidates.
As for the giant blue sword, since nothing could be seen in the thick fog, almost no one knew who wielded it.
Only a few people know the true origin of the giant sword, but even if they don't know the source, it does not prevent the warriors from thanking the mysterious person.
Therefore, the warriors who stayed behind were discussing the blue giant sword that seemed like a miracle with great interest, and the atmosphere was very enthusiastic.
“Hey, Master Crusch has already left, why are you still watching here?”
Under the tree, Xia Yu looked at the gradually shrinking dragon convoy from afar, while Felix, who was standing next to him, looked at them with suspicion.
Seeing Xia Yu's abnormal appearance, Felix had a bold guess. Could it be...
“Are you secretly in love with Master Crusch? Forget it. Master Crusch is a hopelessly insensitive woman. She is absolutely incapable of sensing other people’s feelings for her.”
At the beginning, there was a unlucky guy who had a crush on Crusch for several years, but Crusch never realized it until the unlucky guy died in Crusch's arms and expressed his feelings before his death, which made the slow-witted Crusch react.
In order to prevent Xia Yu from repeating the mistakes of a certain unlucky prince, Felix felt that he had an obligation to remind Xia Yu, and it was not just for fun.
What bad thoughts can a kitten have? A kitten has a lot of bad thoughts.
"Hehe, guess?"
Hearing the sarcasm in Felix's words, Xia Yu came back to his senses and laughed, revealing a meaningful smile.
"!"
“Meow meow meow? You don’t really want to pursue Lord Crusch, do you?” Felix’s cat ears stood up in shock, his face full of shock.
In response, Xia Yu did not answer, waved his hand and left.
He did admire Crusch as a person, but he couldn't say that he liked him. After all, Crusch's personality was not suitable for being a girlfriend.
Being brothers is okay, but it’s better to be sworn brothers.
But speaking of sworn brothers, Xia Yu somehow thought of a sentence.
It’s a pity that you are a girl, otherwise I would definitely become your brother!
Tsk tsk, that rough guy Lu Zhishen doesn't understand at all what a true brotherhood is. A true brother is someone who will be your woman when you need her!
That's what a good brother is!
After Kurush left, the remaining warriors rested while waiting for the other half of the Iron Fang Mercenaries.
In fact, the Iron Fang Mercenaries did not go all out in this White Whale crusade. They even kept half of their men to block the streets to prevent ordinary people from being dragged into the White Whale crusade.
Of course, this is just a euphemism. After all, given the scale of the battle, it is impossible for an ordinary person to want to die on the battlefield.
The more likely possibility is that they are worried that the expedition team will fail and all members will be wiped out, so they leave half of the members to wait and see, which is a typical approach of dividing all the eggs in one basket.
Although this can avoid risks, it also increases the risks. Maybe you will fail because you didn't give your best.
But no matter what, things have passed, and another team of members has arrived, ready to help defeat the Witch Cult.
The leader of the other half of the Iron Fang members was a young brown-haired orc wearing a monocle, but this leader walked on the right. In the middle of the team, and also the most conspicuous, was a purple-haired figure riding a blue earth dragon.
The purple-haired figure was wearing a knight's uniform. Natsuki Subaru, who was originally chatting happily, suddenly changed his expression after seeing who was coming.
The purple-haired figure is Yurius, the "best knight" who has a conflict with Natsuki Subaru.
Of course, the main cause of the conflict lies with Natsuki Subaru himself, but people are definitely unwilling to admit that they are wrong.
What's more, he was beaten so badly by Yurius and lost face in front of Emilia, so it was difficult for Natsuki Subaru to put aside his pride and give a good face to Yurius.
"Subaru, you look very ugly." Suddenly, Xia Yu put his arms around Natsuki Subaru's neck and said close to him.
"Don't scare me like this, Senior..."
Natsuki Subaru, who had been staring at Julius, was startled by Xia Yu's sudden movement. When he realized it was Xia Yu, he breathed a sigh of relief and complained.
"Hehe, that guy does look a little too serious. He deserves a beating, doesn't he?" Xia Yu ignored the complaints in Natsuki Subaru's tone and raised his head towards Yurius.
Hearing this, Natsuki Subaru nodded in agreement.
Sure enough, it wasn’t that he was petty, but rather that Yurius really had a face that deserved a beating.
But even if the other party deserved a beating, there was nothing he could do, because the other party was a regular knight of the kingdom, and he was just an ordinary high school student with a grip strength of 70kg.
As if seeing what Natsuki Subaru was thinking, Xia Yu suddenly chuckled, leaned close to Natsuki Subaru's ear, and bewitched him, "Natsuki Subaru, do you want to become stronger?"
"I can make you stronger, so strong that the purple-haired guy can't beat you and can only be pinned to the ground by you."
"Um?!"
Natsuki Subaru suddenly came back to his senses, looked at Xia Yu in disbelief, with strong desire in his eyes.
When it comes to becoming stronger, no one is more determined than him.
Most of the time during those flashbacks was because he was not strong enough. First, he died by having his chest and abdomen torn apart by the Gut Hunter, and then he died by being cursed.
If he had the power, he could avoid all of these and solve all of them, and he could also better protect his Emilia Tan!
but……
As if he was thinking of something, Natsuki Subaru's eyes dimmed.
He has the determination to become stronger and the perseverance. After all, it is quite rare to find a high school student who can build muscles by staying at home.
But perseverance and determination alone are not enough. He has no talent for becoming stronger, and even the magic he learns is of the rare Yin attribute, which can only bring debuffs.
He has no strength of his own, so even if he puts a lot of debuffs on the enemy, he won't be able to defeat them.
"I'm sorry, senior, I don't have that talent." Natsuki Subaru shook his head. This was not an excuse, but was based on a deep understanding of himself.
Xia Yu had expected Natsuki Subaru to be like this. After all, under the influence of fate, or the author's will, Natsuki Subaru was still a weakling until the latest chapter.
But...
This is not the original work, and the author's will can no longer affect Natsuki Subaru now.
"Hey, Xiaocai, don't worry..."
Xia Yu laughed and whispered mysteriously, "V me 50, and I will make you a strong man, the kind that doesn't even need training!"
Natsuki Subaru: “???”
