Chapter 490 This woman is not simple!
When people calm down, they like to think about this and that. When the three of them stopped from shopping and queued up, a feeling of guilt arose.
"Hey...is this really okay?" Lucy suddenly sighed.
"What's wrong?"
"Natsu and the others are replenishing supplies, but we should be gathering intelligence, but we are enjoying the food here. I feel guilty just thinking about it..."
Hearing Lucy's words, Wendy also said weakly: "I feel uneasy too. After all, the actions of the president and his men are so dangerous..."
"If you keep thinking like that, you won't even be able to taste the delicious star rays!!"
The two were stunned: "Huh?! Erza isn't worried at all?"
"It's not that I'm not worried, but worrying is useless!"
Erza shook her head, her long red hair swaying, charmingly, "You should know that with the intelligence and strength of the president and Kira, we don't need to worry about them at all!"
"We came here just in case. As long as there is no movement from the Albares Empire, it means everything is safe. Then we don't need to take too many actions, otherwise it will have a counterproductive effect."
"According to their speed, they should have just arrived at the capital. No matter what happens, we should be able to receive news by the time we reach the Albares Empire. We can't get any useful information here now."
Lucy and Wendy suddenly realized: "So that's how it is!!"
"Okay, now let's get back in line!"
Seeing that she had convinced the two, Erza turned her attention back to queuing. Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, she saw two figures blocking her way.
"You guys... were just talking about someone planning to take some action against the Albares Empire, right?"
A cold voice, a cold face.
Standing in front of Erza and the other two were two equally beautiful girls.
The woman on the left looked to be about the same age as Lucy. She had short emerald green hair with bangs, two blue-purple cross-shaped hairpins on her head, and a collar with a yellow chain around her neck.
She was wearing a brown coat that reached her ankles and was embroidered with hexagonal patterns. There were blue-purple feathers on the collar and hem, and she was wearing a pair of dark brown sandals.
The revealing outfit showed off the woman's sexy figure, attracting many passers-by to turn their heads.
If the woman on the left is a lychee with plump, sweet and juicy flesh, then the woman on the right is an apple with a faint fragrance.
She has short blond hair, brown eyes, a golden arm guard on her right arm, and a maroon coat tied around her waist, which reveals her slender and refined upper body. Her figure is equally amazing. She is wearing flat sandals on her feet, and looks like an agile female leopard.
These two look like extraordinary people!
This was Erza's first thought.
The Empire chapter of the original work takes place seven years from now. Without this seven-year gap, the strength of these 'Shields' is not much stronger than Erza's current strength. They are about the level of the 'Holy Ten' close to the 'King'. Although they can attract Erza's attention and tension, it is not enough to shock or frighten her.
But soon, Erza's eyes were attracted by a certain part of the two people's bodies, and she looked down unconsciously.
Don't get me wrong, she is not a man with lustful intentions, so what attracted her was not the smooth and tender bodies of the two people, but the tattoos engraved on their bodies.
On the outside of the green-haired woman's fair and voluptuous right thigh, and on the blonde woman's left calf, there were blue and red patterns tattooed respectively. Fortunately, Erza had done her homework before and knew that this was the emblem of the Albareth Empire.
Are they from the Albares Empire? !
Erza's eyes suddenly widened, her pupils shrank, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead unconsciously, but she still forced a smile on her face: "This is getting troublesome..."
Lucy and Wendy were equally nervous, and because they were weaker, they were actually more panicked than Erza.
"What's going on with this magic power?!"
Even though they had fought dragons before, they were still terrified by the two women in front of them who were emitting terrifying magical powers, and their bodies trembled unconsciously.
Erza carefully looked at the two people in front of her, and suddenly remembered the information Kira had mentioned before. She immediately started to speculate: "Could they be the 'Twelve Holy Shields' that Kira mentioned?"
She only knew the name and magic of the Twelve Shields now, and didn't know their specific appearance. But if the two people in front of her who possessed such magical powers were not members of the Twelve Shields, then the strength of the Albares Empire was simply beyond imagination!
"Who are you?"
Erza did not answer, but asked a question in return, thinking to herself: The conversation with Lucy and Wendy just now is not enough to make them regard the three of us as enemies. If we are careful, we should be able to get away with it.
Brandish glanced at Erza expressionlessly, neither asking questions nor answering. She just turned around and continued to queue silently, seemingly not caring about what the person in front of her had just said.
She has always hated trouble, and even more so, she hated discussing things she didn't like with others.
Although he knew that the three people in front of him were suspicious, Brandish did not believe that they, or the president they mentioned, could cause any trouble in the Albares Empire, especially in the capital, because Inbel, Auguste, and Agil were all there, and no one could cause trouble under the noses of the three "Twelve Shields".
Brandish has enough confidence in Auguste's strength!
Brandish didn't intend to pay attention to Erza and the other two, but Timaria beside her became interested.
"We are wizards from the Albares Empire. What is the noise you just mentioned?"
Dimalia had a pure and harmless smile on her face. She looked like an innocent girl, and anyone who saw her would unconsciously let down their guard.
She deliberately told half of her identity and concealed the other half in order to bring the two sides closer together and find out the intentions of Erza and the other two in the subsequent conversation.
Her intuition told her that these three people were not simple!
Such thoughts faintly aroused the manic and irrepressible sexual desire in her chest: it was as if she could tear their clothes to pieces in public...
If Lucy could hear her inner voice, she would definitely slap her in shame and anger, because the three of them didn't have many clothes on to begin with, and if they were torn further it would be a scene that children couldn't watch.
"It's trade! We are from the Hope Chamber of Commerce, and our president is going to the Albares Empire to do business soon."
Erza lied without blinking, "Compared to this, you claim to be wizards of the Albares Empire. Are you talking about the legendary 'Twelve Holy Shields'?"
Dimalia blinked her bright eyes and said, "How is it possible?! Those are all powerful figures, and the two of us are just soldiers under one of them."
The Albares Empire is composed of countless magic guilds. All soldiers are wizards, and all wizards are soldiers, so Timaria used this statement.
"I see!"
Erza and Dimalia smiled at each other. If someone didn't know them, they might think that these two heroic beauties would become good friends because of this chance encounter in the dessert shop.
But in reality...
Erza's mind: Soldier? How can an ordinary soldier have magic power comparable to that of the Holy Ten? Do I look so gullible?
Timaria thought: Chamber of Commerce? Which Chamber of Commerce can afford to hire a wizard of this level? Do you think I'm an idiot who doesn't know the world?
Erza: This woman...
Dimalia: This guy...
Erza/Demaria: Definitely not easy!!
At this moment, the two women called "knights" seemed to have met their destined opponents. They unconsciously felt a sense of mutual respect and an impulse of "this person is my opponent".
