Section 1: Returning to the Hometown
On the straight slate avenue, a long line is marching unhurriedly. /|\Update super fast /|\Kiru rode a tall horse and followed a carriage. In front of and behind the carriage were dozens of heavily armed Class 6 soldiers. And at the head and tail of the team, there are 6 level 8 knights with bright eyes and mighty expressions. They were riding on horses, and their expressions seemed to be indifferent, but they were actually alert to the movements around them, and if something happened, I believe they would soon notice and take action.
The curtain of the carriage was opened, revealing the delicate little face of the goddess. In the car, Tang Lingzheng's face was full of nervousness, with a restless expression.
"You said this Harry is true, how can he go by himself?" said Shannie with a pout, disgruntled at Kiru.
"Hehe, he's like this, and when he suddenly thinks about it, he can't be impatient. Believing that our team was moving too slowly, we flew back first. Kiru chuckled.
"This time, my father asked us to accompany Harry back to his hometown, also because he was afraid that he would cause trouble alone. After all, the city lord of Nantes City has made remarkable achievements in governing the local area over the years, and although there may be some flaws in his character, he is finally a usable person. If Harry's family is fine, we'll just take them to the Imperial Capital. Let's not mention the grievances back then, after all, Harry didn't suffer either. Shanni said helplessly to Kiru.
"Sister Tang Ling, don't worry. With Harry's current strength, even if something happens, it is the Dicas City Lord who has to worry about it. Seeing Tang Ling's nervous face, Xianni couldn't help but smile and comfort.
"I'm not worried about Harry's safety. I'm thinking, what should I say if I see his parents......" Tang Ling has been 'communicating' with people since she was a child, and it is no wonder that she is nervous when she suddenly wants to see her in-laws at this moment.
Harry's parents would have been so happy if they saw him bring back such a beautiful daughter-in-law. They love to hear what you say!" said Xianni, who was much more generous than Tang Ling.
"You're making fun of me again!" Tang Ling said with a shy face. The little red face looks very moving.
"Kiru, I don't know if you noticed. Since Tang Ling's sister returned from the Holy Light Empire, her skin seems to have changed a lot. Is it any wonder that the holy light still has a beauty effect?" Xian Ni grabbed Tang Ling's white 'jade', white and delicate arm, and gently pinched and flicked, 'getting' Tang Ling was itchy.
In the past, although Tang Ling's skin was not bad, it was not so clear.
"Miss Tang Ling now has about level 7 of holy power in her body, and she is nourished by the holy power, so this body will naturally get some benefits. Kiru explained with a smile.
"And what kind of holy words did Harry steal from the Holy Light Empire, isn't it very powerful for Sister Tang Ling to learn it?" asked Shannie with great interest as she stared at her big bright eyes.
"I ...... I don't really like fighting. But I'm going to study hard. At least I won't be in trouble for Harry in the future. Tang Ling said seriously.
"The Holy Light Empire's high-level Holy Words Technique is still very powerful. One of their level 7 white cardinals was able to stand up to us as an level 8 warrior alone. Although it is impossible to win, at least it can support the undefeated. "As the captain of the Knights, you should still have basic information about the enemy.
After a while of talking, Shanni couldn't help but ask, "How long will it be before we get to Feiyang Town?"
"It's probably going to be three more days. We should have arrived two days later than Harry. Kiru thought for a moment and replied.
"I hope nothing ...... big deal," Shannie muttered, raising her eyelids.
......
A figure descended from the sky and landed in the town of Feiyang. It was now approaching evening, and there was hardly anyone to be seen in the streets of the town, and the sun was about to set, except for a residual afterglow on the rooftops, pulling up a long shadow for a row of low wooden houses.
The town of Feiyang does not seem to have changed, it is still so calm and peaceful.
It's been almost six years, and it's been more than five years since I left my hometown. Harry could vaguely remember that it was Instructor Hunter's house, and here was Uncle Iron's blacksmith's shop, and Aunt Car' Luley's bakery......
The tallest building is the Earl's Palace, the most prestigious Earl of Danone in town, and it is also Riley's home.
Harry remembered briefly, and immediately found his way home. Desperately suppressing the 'agitation' in his heart, he slowly walked towards the 'door' of his house step by step.
Soon, a familiar building came into view.
The large 'door' made of mahogany was relatively imposing in Feiyang at that time, but now the traces of a few sharp weapons on it and the peeling paint make this precious 'door' no longer look so magnificent. The surrounding walls were riddled with pitted scars, and there were several huge gaps in the eaves, and many pieces of rubble hung on them, as if they were going to fall.
What happened at home? When he left, could it be that Gebrin still came to embarrass his parents? Didn't Count Danone promise to take good care of his parents? Harry held back his breath and went to see his parents first.
The 'door' is hidden, and generally only the poor will be so indifferent. I think that in the past, my father always locked the big 'door' firmly before going to bed to prevent anyone from visiting in the middle of the night with bad intentions.
The floor of the hall was already covered with a thin layer of dust, which had not been cleaned for several days, and a few pieces of grass and medicine had fallen on the ground. There was a faint smell of 'medicine' in the whole room.
What had happened? Harry felt his hands and feet a little cold, and he didn't dare to take a step forward, so he just stood at the 'door' in a daze. Even his keen 'essence' divine power has forgotten to unfold, or is unwilling to unfold.
It seemed to hear the movement at the 'door', and a voice came from the back room.
"Who? Is it Riley?" was his father's voice, and although he seemed a little tired and hoarse, he still had more confidence. It shows that there is nothing wrong with the father. Harry's heart relaxed slightly, Riley still seemed to come to his house often, otherwise his father would not have guessed that she was here the first time.
Thinking of this, Harry couldn't help but feel a little apologetic. Failed to take care of her parents, but she made Riley suffer. It's just that...... How do you deal with Riley?
Harry took a deep breath and walked briskly to the back room's 'door', gently pushing it open.
The first thing that rushed into the nostrils was a pungent smell of 'medicine'. The mother closed her eyes tightly and lay quietly on the 'bed', her long black hair turned snow-white at the moment, only hanging down her ears. Several wrinkles also appeared on the face.
On the table was a bowl of soup and medicine left, and my father was sitting on the edge of the bed, smiling at the person who entered the door.
Both of them were stunned on the spot...... Although Harry was not an adult when he left home, his basic appearance was almost fixed, and although it had been six years, not much had changed. And his father, except for a few more wrinkles, some white sideburns in his hair, and a hint of tiredness and helplessness in his eyes, could still be recognized by Harry at a glance.
"Hah...... Harry?" Father opened his mouth in disbelief.
"Father......" Harry couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes, looked up and blinked a few times, and replied, "It's me...... Harry is back. ”
"Mother, she ?......," Harry desperately wondered what was going on. In just six years, my mother will not age like this!
"Let's come out and talk, don't disturb your mother. Father hurriedly took Harry's arm and made his way into the hall. "She just fell asleep. ”
Before he could sit down, his father asked with concern, "Why are you back?" Geblin doesn't seem to be ready to give up, and almost every month he sends someone to find out if there is any news of you. He was here in person just last week. ”
"But I think at least he won't come back for a week, and you stay home for a few days to make your mother happy. Then get out of here!" Father spoke to himself, not noticing a fierce look in Harry's eyes.
"Seeing that you're okay, we two elders can rest assured. Don't worry about us, your mother just missed and worried about you so much that she fell ill, and I think she will be much better after meeting you. ”
"Father...... Do not worry. Now that I'm back, of course I won't leave you alone. Harry squeezed his father's hands tightly and said with relief.
"Don't talk stupid. Gebrin, he may have been 'provoked' by your thorn, and now he has cultivated to the strength of a level 8 warrior. I think you'll be doing well out there when you come back this time, but once Geblin knows about it, I'm afraid you'll be doomed. After all, the entire jurisdiction of Nantes is their family's territory. ”
Level 8 Samurai? He was originally quite talented, and he must have worked hard to be strong over the years and be able to advance to level 8...... It's also remarkable.
"Why did our house become like this? Did Geblin do it!" was ninety percent sure, but Harry was still going to ask.
"I don't know......," the father shook his head.
"Since you left, I feared revenge from the Geblin family, so I simply withdrew my business in Nantes. Even if we don't do business, our family has a small amount of savings, and it is no problem to live a stable life. ”
"But fortunately, the Count of Danone supports it, and Riley also takes care of it wholeheartedly. The city lord of Dicas, after all, did not embarrass us. Father sighed softly. "It's that Geblin will send someone or personally come here from time to time to monitor you to see if you have returned. ”
"As for our family...... One night, out of nowhere, a few powerful 'masked' men forcibly burst into our house and robbed us of everything of value. Your mother also fell ill at that time......" Father shook his head, "if it weren't for Riley's help...... We may not be able to survive now. ”
"Originally, such robberies should have been handed over to the city of Nantes for investigation and trial. But because of your relationship with Geblin...... We can only do it. ”
Hmph, needless to say, Geblin must have sent someone to do it! He couldn't find himself, so he took out his anger at his parents.
Well, since you're looking for death...... Then I don't have to be polite! In the past, each had its own grievances, and it was impossible to say who was right and who was wrong. For the sake of His Majesty Nilander, I don't want to embarrass you. But how dare you do this to my parents...... If I don't take revenge, how can I be willing!
