This result, in her opinion, was not surprising.

After all, from that perspective, Lin Yue is so strong that she is not in the same dimension as Alice.

Therefore, it is really a fantasy for the other party to defeat Lin Yue.

Lin Yue smiled and glanced at Xi Yeqian, then turned her attention to Alexia.

Alexia felt guilty and panicked when she saw Lin Yue looking at her.

After all, she was the one who shouted most happily before.

And now his sister has lost, which is a complete slap in the face.

This is undoubtedly a very embarrassing thing.

Just when she thought Lin Yue was going to mock her, Lin Yue showed a gentle smile.

He gently raised his hand, placed it on Alexia's beautiful long silver-white hair, and gently rubbed it softly.

"Sometimes, there is no need to pursue what others call perfect swordsmanship."

"My own sword is good."

After Lin Yue said this, she took Xi Yeqian away.

Alexia was stunned when she heard Lin Yue's words.

She was very surprised that Lin Yue did not laugh at her. Instead, she continued to treat her gently.

As for the difficult to understand words that followed, she was a little confused.

But she still kept this sentence firmly in her heart.

Although she may not understand it now, maybe she will understand it one day in the future?

Looking at the backs of Lin Yue and Xi Yeqian as they left, Alexia thought secretly in her heart:

This man seems quite handsome!

After feeling a little impressed by Lin Yue's appearance, she turned her attention to her sister.

At this moment, Alice had a decadent expression on her face, her eyes were somewhat empty, and her body was trembling slightly as she looked at her hands.

Faced with the sudden failure, she found it difficult to accept it for a while.

I even began to doubt myself.

"What does he mean by that?"

"My pride has been shattered. It's gone! Everything is gone."

Alice knelt on the ground, raised her head and looked at the sky with a sad face.

At this moment, she felt like she was dreaming, but her remaining rationality told her that all this was real.

"Sister Alice. Are you okay?"

Alexia came to Alice and helped her up.

Alice's thoughts were brought back to reality when she heard her sister's voice.

She forced a smile and whispered to her sister:

"It's okay, I might just be a little tired today."

"Just go back and take a rest."

After saying this, Alice pulled her sister's hand away and walked into the palace alone.

Alexia looked at her sister's back and seemed particularly lonely at this moment.

She felt a little sad about this.

But there is no way, after all, losing is losing, no matter what excuses you make, this is an unchanging fact.

On Lin Yue's side, Xi Yeqian asked Lin Yue curiously:

"Lin Yuejun, what you said to Alice just now, were you giving her some advice?"

"Although I didn't quite understand what he said, it seemed to me that he was actually giving her instructions."

Akane Nishino, who was very observant, expressed her speculation.

"Oh? You figured that out!"

"Not bad, Akane."

Lin Yue smiled slightly and looked at Nishino Akane with eyes full of approval.

Receiving Lin Yue's praise, Nishino Qian showed a smug smile on her face.

"In fact, it was just a side wake-up call for her."

"She was too persistent in her heart, and this persistence became a shackle for her."

"If this shackle is not removed in time, she will explode at some point, and the consequences will affect her whole life."

Lin Yue had a calm expression on her face, and spoke lightly about Alice's flaws.

In fact, what Lin Yue said was what Alice actually experienced in the original work.

She has always been proud of her own strength and regards herself as the backbone of the country.

So for this country, she is very persistent in protecting it.

The people of this country have high hopes for you.

It is precisely because of these things that Alice, although she usually looks like a mighty Valkyrie, is the strongest magic swordsman.

But in fact, she had already been crushed by these things and was close to a state of insanity.

And this obsession, in the original story, was crushed by the powerful male protagonist Shadow, who broke her last heartstrings.

At the War God Festival, he challenged Shadow together with the War Goddess Beatrix, but was greatly shocked after being easily defeated by the opponent in a one-on-two fight.

From then on, she fell into a state of madness.

When seeing the shadow, the whole person will scream at the top of his lungs and want to fight with the other party like crazy to prove himself and save his face.

Unable to accept one's own failure calmly.

What Lin Yue said was that she hoped she could see herself clearly and accept her failure.

That's why he decided to have a competition with Alice, just to let her face failure sooner, so that this girl wouldn't become crazy after a long time.

Moreover, Lin Yue's sparring behavior is not only beneficial to Alice.

It is also good for her sister Alexia.

Alexia has admired her sister since she was a child, so she has been practicing sword skills hard in order to catch up with her sister.

Unfortunately, compared to her sister who was given the title of perfect swordsmanship in the original work, her title of ordinary swordsmanship was also a little difficult for her to accept.

At one point, he even felt tired of his own sword.

What Lin Yue said to her before she left was actually a reminder for Alexia not to blindly chase after other people's shadows.

Don't try to imitate others deliberately, and don't deny yourself because of other people's opinions.

Lin Yue only hopes that the two of them can understand her good intentions.

Don’t let the two sisters go through the same crazy thing as in the original work again.

After the competition, Lin Yue gave the task of contacting other countries and sending out notices for their surrender to the King of the Kingdom of Midgar.

He brought Akane Nishino to another area of ​​this world.

This area does not belong to any kingdom. It is an unmanaged area called Lawless City.

In this lawless city, although there is no one to manage it, there is an overlord of the region.

This group of overlords is composed of a group of vampires.

They worshipped the true ancestor of vampires as their leader and occupied a high tower here as their base camp.

Vampires live here and often treat humans here as food.

They sucked each other's flesh and blood to satisfy their hunger.

And those humans who have been sucked by the spirits will be transformed into zombies that will only attack others.

This also caused this lawless city to become extremely chaotic, with zombie attacks occurring from time to time.

But even so, there are many adventurers and warriors coming here.

Because they all want to defeat the True Ancestor of the vampire base camp and gain the honorary divination.

Chapter 159: Slave Trade, Chaotic City

In the evening.

Lin Yue and Nishino Akane were walking on the streets of this lawless city.

The girl kept looking back and forth at the surrounding scenery.

Because compared to the orderly streets of Midgar's capital, this place seems extremely chaotic.

Gangsters and the like can be seen everywhere, with their defiant eyes constantly scanning the passers-by.

It looked like a hungry wolf selecting suitable prey.

Apart from that, there are rarely any elderly people or children on the streets here.

Most of them are strong young men and adult men. At a glance, they are dressed like mercenaries or adventurers.

Just like the name of this city, anyone who can come to this city and walk out safely is definitely not an unarmed person.

Because the fate of that kind of person who steps into this place is either to be sucked of blood and flesh by vampires and become a zombie.

Or they were abducted by local thugs or street bullies and sold to slave traders.

"Come on! Take a look!"

"Fresh-baked slave!"

"There are male and female slaves, strong and thin, slaves that can meet all kinds of needs, everything is available!"

Lin Yue and Nishino Qian had only walked less than 50 meters on the street when they saw about three slave shops.

Akane Nishino looked at the slaves who were imprisoned in cold iron cages, wearing only a thin piece of clothing and being corroded by the cold, so they could only curl up and shiver in the corner, and she felt a trace of sympathy in her heart.

Everyone in the chat group also started discussing while watching the live broadcast.

Holy Emperor: "If you think about it carefully, these slaves in the other world are really pitiful."

Dongfang Huaizhu: "I agree. These people are so pitiful. Not only are they treated like commodities, but the merchants even let them wear only thin clothes."

Lei Movie: "I don't want this to happen to my wife."

Marika: "Don't forget where this city is. It's normal for this kind of situation to occur. Even in my city, Storm City, there is slave trade. So this should be a feature of a civilization like this."

Athena: "It may not exist in modern civilization, but slavery was a very normal thing even in my time."

Artemis: "I have observed that slaves also exist in human society."

Busujima Saeko: "In the past, the existence of slaves was normal. But this place is so chaotic. Although those vampires are the managers here, they don't seem to care about anything."

Everyone in the chat group was discussing, while Nishino Akane's eyes kept looking back and forth at the various slave traders' shops.

"I always feel a little uncomfortable watching this scene."

Nishino Akane frowned and spoke in a slightly sad tone.

"It's normal. From your perspective as a person who has received modern civilized education, this is indeed normal."

Lin Yue smiled lightly and said calmly.

"That's right. Anyway, I can't be as calm as Lin Yuejun and watch such a thing happen in front of me without any ripples."

Akane Nishino sighed and cast a sympathetic look towards the slaves locked in the cages.

"Ha, this just goes to show, Qian, that you have a compassionate heart."

"I don't hate girls like this."

Lin Yue smiled gently and spoke to Nishino Akane in a comforting manner.
