"Humph!" Perlis stopped hammering, put her hands on her hips, closed her eyes and turned her head away angrily. "We're even this time! This won't happen again!" "Okay... As you command... my little white flower." Edward looked at his angry daughter in his arms, smiled and sighed. She was too proud. She could have cried like any other little girl, but she insisted on giving him, her father, a way out. I am such an incompetent father. Perlis opened one eye and stole a glance at Edward. Seeing that his expression was a little complicated, she turned her head away with relief and smiled brightly and heartlessly: "Hey... kiss!" After saying that, Pearlis left a small kiss mark on Edward's clean-shaven cheek, then smiled foolishly with a slightly blushing face. A sea of white flowers rolled over Edward's side like a wave, covering his body, and in his arms was the most beautiful and purest flower among the thousands of flowers. Perlis's smile melted him, and in an instant, Edward felt that if he could stay with his daughter forever, everything in the world would not be so important.
This is the only thing that can intoxicate Edward von Valantia, who is known as the "Red Shadow", his daughter's smile. "Haha, you little idiot." Edward kissed Pearlis's tender little cheek and smiled with relief. He held Pearlis tightly in his arms and secretly vowed to protect this pure little white flower forever. No one can defile her or take her away. Edward tapped Pearlis's forehead gently and carried her to the kitchen: "Okay, I have to eat something first. I can accompany you for a week this time and take you to the sea of flowers~" "Okay, okay, I want to pick flowers..." "I've already picked so many, you can't pick any more, or they won't survive..." ...END... 3) Through the mist “Wow~” With a yawn as she woke up, Perlis opened the curtains, and the morning light poured into the room, illuminating her face that was not yet fully awake. Looking around, Lodun was not so deserted during the day. Carriages began to pass through the streets, and there were more pedestrians on the street corners in the early morning. However, due to the aftermath of Charon's rebellion, most residents preferred to stay at home. The city remains on alert. “Hmm~ah…” Perlis stretched and rubbed her eyes, her blood-red pupils adjusting to the light outside. She felt that her sleep last night was a little uneasy, and her chest was always stuffy. Was it because she was in a foreign country? Or was it because she felt a little unresolved after reading her father's handwriting? However, this is not so important. Perlis had already made an appointment with Pace to meet at the Saint-Jial Hotel the next day, and then went to Wanren Mountain together. Thinking of confronting Ivar face to face and questioning him about his father, a fire ignited in Perlis' heart again, but it was accompanied by some worries. What Perlis can be sure of is that Ivar is a liar, who has concealed so many truths from Perlis and has been playing another person. But does Perlis really understand Edward? In Perlis's impression, Edward has always been a simple, cute, big boy who can play with her. He holds her in his hands and only knows how to kiss and lift her up every day. Sometimes he is even so stupid that Perlis can't help but knocking his head repeatedly. But in Edward's diary, he is an evil spirit wandering on the front line, a "red ghost", who uses the sharp blade in his hand to continuously eliminate the enemies of the Federation. He is cold, ruthless, and powerful. He disdains to show the slightest mercy to the lives under his feet and tramples on them mercilessly.
The father she saw in his diary was almost two different people from the one she remembered. Perlis picked up the butterfly knife on the bedside and looked at it carefully: This knife is very beautiful, with various wonderful patterns engraved on the silver blade. As long as Perlis rotates it, the red factor energy will attach to the blade, and then the knife will become a murderous weapon. Edward used this knife to kill countless enemies of the Federation. Perlis sighed. How could a little girl who was only eight or nine years old back then be able to see even a glimpse of the truth in this cruel world? After Edward's death, Perlis took over his sharp blade and was trained by the Federation to become a powerful agent. For many years, she had always believed that the peace spoken of by the Federation was Edward's ideal. She just ruthlessly eliminated the enemies of the Federation and believed that she was doing what her father expected. The silly little flower, after being watered by the gardener, blossomed into the color that others expected. But now, she is no longer the little flower in the box garden. Even though recent events have ruthlessly shattered everything she has believed in for many years, Perlis is definitely not the kind of person who clings to the past. No matter how dark the road ahead is, she will move forward. “Ding~ding~ding~ding~ding~ding~ding~ding~ding~” Seven bells rang outside the window, and the pointer on the dial of the clock tower that was faintly visible in the morning mist had pointed to 7 o'clock. The morning scene of Lorton had completely unfolded. It's time to go. Pearlis walked to the mirror and casually fixed her hair to make herself look at least not so sloppy. Then she walked to the clothes rack and prepared to take off her pajamas. Suddenly, she heard a faint sound coming from outside the door: “Crunch..Crunch..Crunch…” It's giant armor. Perlis took action instantly. She gave up changing clothes and quickly put the factor bracelet on her left hand. With a light shake, the factor shield gradually formed on her body surface and covered her. Under normal circumstances, the factor shield is invisible to the naked eye. Only when attacked will the existence of the factor shield be exposed, which gives Perlis a huge advantage in the first move. Perlis threw all her clothes and luggage into a bag and threw it next to the French window. Then, she wrapped a pillow with the quilt on the bed to create the illusion that someone was sleeping on the bed. After doing all this, Perlis hid to the side of the door, put her ear against the wall, and calmly listened to the sounds outside - "Calling Angel, investigators D-02, 03, and 04 are in place, requesting permission." "Roger that, permission to kill granted, fire at will." Huh...? Why did they give permission to kill...? Perlis curled her lips helplessly. If they could just shoot at a girl as cute as her, how cold-blooded and heartless would they have to be... Well, now is not the time to be narcissistic... this is Thebeth, not some amusement park. The butterfly knife was spinning on the fingertips of Perlis, and the red factor energy was constantly gathering from the air onto the blade. Perlis leaned against the wall, quietly waiting... ...... D-02 tightly grasped the large-caliber revolver in his hand. The Iron Guard's [Angels] had given them the right to fire at will, so he didn't have to be afraid of anything. As long as he took advantage of [Babel's Blade]'s unpreparedness, the large-caliber bullet could kill her in an instant. No matter whether it is the Blade of Babel or the Knife of Babel, if you are shot, you will die. "D-02, break the door." The two companions beside him hid on both sides of the door, their bodies covered in giant armor, on guard. "receive." D-02 walked to the door, raised one foot, and pointed it at the door.
"Oh!" With the sound of mechanical joints, D-02 kicked the door into a pile of rotten wood chips and rushed in. He locked his eyes on the bulging quilt on the bed and pulled the trigger without hesitation: "Boom--boom--" Two large-caliber bullets hit the bed, and cotton wool and fabric flew everywhere. But when D-02 looked closely, he saw that there was no one lying on the bed: nobody? D-02 hesitated for a second, and the next second, a red light slashed across his arm - "Click——" The butterfly knife cut through the steel, leaving a long mark on the armor. With a burst of sharp pain, the revolver in D-02's hand fell out of his hand. The next second, a white figure flashed by, caught the revolver in the air, and fired two shots at him: "Boom--boom--" D-02 stumbles backwards and falls to the ground. "02!!" The two companions watched as D-02 fell to the ground, with two large holes on the chest of the giant armor. "Ignore him and kill the Blade of Babel!" D-03 yelled, then stepped over 02's body and rushed into the room. At this time, the white shadow was already standing in front of the French window of the hotel, holding a backpack in his hand, and his blood-red eyes looked at them silently: "Fire!!!" D-03 yelled and pointed the gun at the girl, firing three shots, but was blocked by three flashes of red light on the girl's body. Is it a factor shield? Could it be that she already... In front of the French window, Perlis raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at D-03. A flash of fear flashed through his heart. Oops... D-03 stared blankly at the black muzzle of the gun. Under the gaze of those red eyes, his body seemed to be frozen. However, Perlis did not shoot. She sighed imperceptibly and then pointed the gun at the French window: "Oh!" A shot from a large-caliber bullet broke the French window, and the cold wind mixed with the morning light blew in, lifting up Pearlis's long white hair, which fluttered in the air like fireworks. [Pure White Fireworks], that's what they called her. "Don't just stand there! Shoot!" D-04 fired three shots in a row, but they were all blocked by the factor shield on Perlis's body. "Goodbye."
Pearlis waved her hands, then opened her arms and jumped out of the hotel window. ...... 3) Wings of Mist (Part 2) "Brother..is it too late?" In the square in front of the trident-shaped hotel, more than a dozen Thebit investigators were stationed with guns. Most of them were wearing giant armor and holding their guns tightly. The crowd in the square had been dispersed, and several streets nearby were empty, leaving only a group of investigators who were determined to win. Pace hid at the corner of the street, watching this unprecedented scene. This was probably the first time since the end of the Unification War that so many giant armors appeared on the streets of Loton at the same time. The residents of Loton basically watched from a distance, and most people chose to close the windows to avoid getting into trouble. "Hey, brother, say something," Vans patted Pace's shoulder, very anxiously, "Should we still go look for her? "This is full of investigators, Venia's people..." Pace's eyes flashed with anger, and the face of that stinky young master appeared in front of him, "This bastard...we are going to..." "We can't defeat them! With so many giant armors..." Pace looked at his brother and raised his eyebrows strangely: "You were yelling about 'using her to take back the manor' last night, why are you so cowardly today?" "What do you mean by cowardly? Are you okay? With so many giant armors, would a normal person want to die?" For a moment, Pace hesitated. Vans was right. With so many giant armors, it was impossible for him to defeat them. Or rather, there was no chance at all. For a moment, Pace's instinct drove him to run away. However, a white shadow appeared in front of him: "Ok, I trust you." What's wrong with me...? After being a liar, am I going to be a treacherous coward now? No wonder he couldn't even run a tavern. If this continued, the Monarch family would probably really fall into his hands. You must go. Thinking of this, Pace suddenly stood up and looked down at Vance. "Then just be a normal person," Pace looked towards the Saint-Jial Hotel, his eyes becoming firmer, "I have to rescue her." Pace knew that if he abandoned Perlis like this, he would be no different from the Iron Lord who abandoned the Monarch family. What's more, Pace seemed to have seen this scene before. That dead body by the fireplace. Pace shook his head and drove the shadow from his mind. "Hey... why are you pretending to be such a hero now..." Vans grabbed Pace's hand and begged, "That little white-haired boy might be dead now... are you going to be buried with him?" Pace ignored Vans and moved his limbs, with exoskeleton armor covering his limbs. Unlike the bulky and defense-focused MK21 "Fortress" of the Debita Inquisitor, Pace's MK23 "Fighter" focused more on improving speed and strength, so there was basically no steel plate for defense on his exoskeleton. "Hey.. bro!!" Vans shouted desperately behind Pace, but Pace ignored him. He walked out of the alley silently and looked up at the Saint-Hilaire Hotel. Now what he had to do was to enter the hotel from a certain angle and help Perlis escape. Since the soldiers in the square hadn't made much movement, it meant that Perlis should still be alive...
Just as Pace was staring at the building of the Saint-Hilaire Hotel and thinking, a loud noise was heard: "Oh!" On the tall building, a window shattered with the sound of gunfire, and countless glass fragments fell on the square. Pace and the investigators on the square all raised their heads and looked at the broken French window. In front of the French window, a girl was standing there, her long pure white hair fluttering in the wind. It was Pearlis! She was fine, and Pace felt relieved. However, the next second, Perlis leaped and fell from the tall building, scaring Pace so much that he held his head and screamed:
