Chapter 52: Izongzongase Nanase
"Thank you for the hospitality."
The girl stroked her belly, looking satisfied.
"...You have the nerve to say that you ate 70% of our food in one go."
As Caesar said, although this girl looked thin, she ate about 70% of the food she had for Lu, Roland and Caesar in one go, but Lu and the others were just half full.
"Since you're full, can you introduce yourself to us?"
"Yes, you're right. My name is Izumiso Nanase, and I am one of the players of the Eternal Sunrise Empire."
Izumi Sose Nanase introduced herself with them, and the girl didn't feel like she couldn't speak the truth, so Lu and the others decided to try to communicate with her first.
"We are members of the Norsefell team. My name is Lu Norsefell, and I am the captain of the Norsefell team. These two are my brothers, Caesar Clauser and Roland Randall."
"I'm Caesar Clauser."
"I'm Roland."
Both parties introduced themselves, but after hearing Lu's introduction, Izumi Sose Nanase's expression changed instantly. Her eyes suddenly became full of aggressiveness. She tightened the knife in her hand and waved it to Lu. Because the knife was too sudden, Lu couldn't react at once, and his hair was cut off.
"So you are the one who is Lu! I have been looking for you for so long, and finally found you! I want to kill you!"
"Wait a minute, what kind of deep hatred do you and I have?"
Lu asked the other party while avoiding the opponent's attack, but now Nanase is full of anger at him and doesn't know what the situation is.
"It's absolutely impossible to be wrong, Lu! It's you a bastard! It's because of your existence... If you... If you didn't leave the Rising Sun Empire, Qin Yin wouldn't have been crying all these years!"
Hearing this, Lu suddenly understood something. He continued to avoid the opponent's attack and said to Roland and Caesar: "Don't take action, I have something to ask her."
Caesar and Roland nodded. After confirming that they would not take action, Lu suddenly stopped dodging. Seeing that he suddenly stopped moving, Nanase also stopped moving and asked, "Why did you stop?"
"I know I'm sorry for Qinyin, but I have to do that."
"Although I don't know what it is for, you left Miss Qinyin... How did Miss Qinyin spend these five years? Miss Qinyin, who was crying every day... All this is to blame you! Reveal!"
"I also know that all this is my fault. Miss Nanase, I don't expect to get your forgiveness, but... can I ask, what is your relationship with Kotoo?"
"She is the one I swear to be loyal to. I have been responsible for protecting Miss Qinyin's safety since I was 5 years old. At the beginning... When you were in the Rising Sun Empire, I temporarily left the Rising Sun Empire because of my practice. But... When I returned to the Rising Sun Empire, I was always alone and dazed when I saw Miss Qinyin... And when I understood the reason why she was always so lonely, I swear that if I met you one day, I would definitely kill you! As a pity for Miss Qinyin's pain!"
"I know, if you want to do it, you can do it."
"Okay, very good. Since you said that, I will fulfill your wish!"
Nanase held the knife tightly in her hand and stabbed it straight towards Lu's heart. But even so, Lu still didn't move at all. Roland and Caesar were on the side, both of which were not moving at all.
The straight stab was approaching Lu's chest, but... the straight stab was only pressed against Lu's chest, leaving a small wound on his chest.
"...Why didn't you dodge? Why didn't your two righteous brothers help you?"
"It's very simple, because although there is indeed anger in your attack, there is no malice or murderous aura, so I know you won't kill him."
“……………………”
Nanase was silent for a moment, and retracted the knife that was pressed against her chest and the scabbard around her waist.
"Hmph, I confirmed it in my own way. If I do this, I can confirm it. It is not unreasonable for Miss Qinyin to be so obsessed with you. I just now have paid off your debts to Miss Qinyin."
"Thank you, Miss Nanase."
"There is a rule in our Rising Sun Empire. If you are friends, you should call each other equally, and you don't need to add a title of gentleman or lady."
"So that's the case, thank you Nanase."
"Well, by the way, three, now that the personal grudges have been resolved, can we form a temporary alliance?"
"alliance?"
Seeing that they seemed to have resolved their personal grudges, Roland and Caesar walked to Lu and Nanase and began to discuss the proposal of "Alliance". The one who discussed with her was Lu as the captain.
"Yes, I want to form a temporary alliance with you."
"But why choose to form an alliance with us? There are so many teams that are stronger than us."
"That's right, but I'm also considering Miss Qinyin's safety. Miss Qinyin is very afraid of strangers, especially men. The only thing she believes is to reveal you, and your strength is indeed unquestionable. The two people around you are naturally very strong, so this is the most suitable judgment I think."
Although Lu wanted to agree to this proposal, and she cared about Kotoo's safety,... he was still very worried about Elsia's current situation, so he also said to Nanase very guiltyly: "Nanase, I am really sorry. Although I want to agree to this proposal, I am also very worried about the other partners in our team. Especially just now, the life reaction of one of our teammates suddenly disappeared, so..."
"So you want to reject this proposal, right?"
Lu could only nod helplessly.
"So... can I ask you a question?"
“What’s the problem?”
"...What kind of feelings do you have for Miss Qinyin..."
