Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

Lin Gui looked at the fox girl.

long time.

After a while, the fox spirit felt uneasy all over, and the tips of her ears twitched slightly twice.

Then, she became more generous, puffed out her chest, and deliberately showed off her slightly thin figure.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen such a beautiful fox spirit before?"

She winked at Lin Gui, a sly smile playing on her lips.

"Little rascal, how about you stay? I can give you special treatment."

The voice just fell.

Those around who noticed the situation began to riot wildly.

"Oh—it's that trick again!"

"How many times has this happened? How many times has our fox lady been chasing after the little mage?"

"Didn't you say you'd never talk to him again? It's only been a few days!"

"The little mage didn't even acknowledge you, yet you went right up to her. Aren't you ashamed?!"

The fox-woman's face flushed red.

She turned around, waving her little fists, and yelled at the group of people who had started the disturbance:

"Shut up! All of you, shut up!"

"I'm trying to retain talented people! What do you know!"

Its fluffy tail bristled with anger, resembling a blue cloud.

No one around them objected.

Because what she said was true.

That little mage was only at the mid-to-high level.

But they accomplished many things that none of them could.

To this day, they still don't understand it.

How did he manage to escape from the clutches of the demonic poison kiss, who was being watched by numerous powerful forces, without any protection?

How did they obtain those secrets known only to the great nobles?

He accomplished many things that even these extraordinary individuals could not.

If possible, they also hope that Lin Gui can truly join them.

pity.

This little guy was picked up by the exploration team from the red desert.

Besides getting along well with the exploration team.

He is usually rather aloof and withdrawn.

According to the scouts, the other party seemed to be planning to go to the City of a Thousand Towers to study magic.

He probably won't come back.

If they could, they wouldn't want him to leave either.

At the very least, the other party can be considered an important contributor to this revolution.

Therefore, the beautiful fox spirit was willing to fall for the sorcerer.

They showed no sign of jealousy whatsoever.

He even kept giving the fox girl meaningful glances.

A series of distorted faces, winking and making exaggerated mouth gestures.

Push harder!

Why are you just standing there showing off your body, which is as thin as a little kid's?!

Stick it on!

The fox girl stared blankly at the distorted expressions on the faces of those guys.

Then, she understood.

A sly smile curled at the corner of his lips.

She turned around and naturally pressed herself against him.

She linked her arm with Lin Gui's.

He leaned in slightly.

Its fluffy tail gently brushed against his leg.

In the past, the other party would always avoid it.

Or they might uncomfortably push themselves away, preventing themselves from getting closer.

However, this time...

Lin Gui did not move.

He just stood there, letting her press against him.

Let her body heat seep through the thin shirt.

The fox spirit was stunned.

She looked up at Lin Gui's profile.

The expression on that pale face remained indifferent.

But in those eyes...

Something seems different now.

The people around who were making a fuss were also stunned.

"Me?"

"The little mage didn't dodge?"

"Did the sun rise in the west?"

"Little fox girl, did you drug him?"

The fox spirit ignored them.

She simply looked at Lin Gui, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

The other person seemed to have become a different person.

Some people around wanted to continue making a fuss, but they were dragged away by others.

"Alright, alright, stop getting in my way!"

"Let's go for a drink!"

"Today's a big day, let's drink until we drop!"

A group of people pushed and shoved, laughing and cursing, as they were swept into the jubilant crowd.

Fox Girl, pulling Lin Gui along, squeezed through the cheering crowd.

Along the way, farm women kept handing out freshly baked bread.

"Little fox girl, try some of your auntie's new cooking!"

"Young man, have a piece of devil jerky!"

The fox spirit smiled and waved her hand, refusing them one by one.

"No, no, you guys eat!"

"We'll come back later!"

She pulled Lin Gui along, walking through those familiar streets.

Pass through those low walls made of ore waste.

We passed through those simple sheds adorned with colorful cloths.

Finally, we arrived at the city walls of this city-state, which had just been renamed Starfire.

The city walls stand tall and imposing.

It was built from quarried bluish-gray rocks, still bearing fresh traces of excavation.

The fox spirit let go, leaned against the wall, and looked down.

Below is the entire Starfire City.

This former mining city is now immersed in revelry.

Countless torches were lit, like a galaxy falling to earth.

Crowds thronged the humble streets.

They danced, sang, and hugged.

Those faces, usually blackened by coal dust, were now glowing red in the firelight.

Those backs that were usually hunched over were now standing straight.

The tavern door was wide open, and the aroma of cheap ale wafted out, mixed with the smell of devil's roast meat.

Children, holding their homemade colorful flags, ran and weaved through the crowd.

The elderly people sat on the doorstep, tears glistening in their cloudy eyes, but smiles on their lips.

In the distance, colorful lights were also hung at the entrance to the mine.

The dark caves that had once swallowed countless of their compatriots were now illuminated.

Further away, there are continuous slag heaps.

The waste that had been piled up for decades gleamed grayish-white under the moonlight.

But now, they are no longer the gloom weighing on my heart.

Rather, it is proof that this city has been lived.

The fox spirit turned her head and looked at Lin Gui.

Even in the moonlight, his face remained pale.

But those eyes were fixed on everything below.

Looking at the cheering crowds, the leaping flames, and the burning city.

The fox spirit asked:

"Is something on your mind?"

She tilted her head, her amber eyes fixed intently on Lin Gui.

The moonlight fell on her face, illuminating every expression on her delicate features.

His brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes showed concern.

Its fluffy tail swayed gently, the tip brushing against the stone bricks of the city wall.

Lin Gui remained silent.

He looked at the lights below the city wall with joy.

The flickering flames, the cheering figures, the illuminated, humble streets.

Then, he lowered his head.

He looked at the fox girl who had somehow ended up sitting on his legs, which were crossed over.

She lay there on her side, her head resting on his knee.

Its fluffy tail curled up beside it, and its ears twitched occasionally.

Like a real fox.

Her name is Sivir.

They are the behind-the-scenes leaders of the Spark Revolution.

She is also the last Star Fox on the continent of Akara.

The Starfox clan also had another name during the Golden Age.

They are known as the guardians of time.

Each Star Fox awakens an ability upon reaching adulthood.

Predicting the future by observing celestial phenomena.

Because of this ability, the Star Fox clan was wiped out.

Only Sivir remained.

She did not tell anyone her true identity.

Normally, she disguises herself as a member of the Blue Fox Clan.

Only some core members of the Spark Organization knew her true identity.

There's also Lin Gui.

Lin Gui looked at Sivir.

long time.

Then he spoke.

The sound was very soft.

"Do you...know that this revolution is destined...to fail?"
