20. Good dreams tonight
Abel's face was furious:
"I've given you the house, what else do you want?"
Hervin retorted:
"No, no, no, Mr. Abel, you gave me back the house that belonged to me, and it is funny enough that you can say such a thing, is this the apprentice of the pure white knight?"
The fat man on one side froze, and he was already thinking about where to choose his grave.
And Lisa next to him is very happy, if Herwin buys the house, then she can get the bonus, after all, she doesn't sleep with guests, and it can only depend on luck if she wants to earn her sister's tuition, she doesn't want to lose this opportunity.
Abel, who waited for the excuse, finally couldn't help it, and threatened with an angry laugh:
"You've insulted my teacher, you need to go to jail with your little thing for a while. ”
Hewen shook his head:
"The current knight apprentices don't even obey the rules of knighthood? ”
Abel was taken aback:
"You know the knightly rules?"
But Abel still thought that the other party was a member of the Knights, but after thinking about it, any of the people in the Knights now would take the knightly regulations seriously, and he should have only heard about the regulations from somewhere.
Hervin feigned anger:
"Originally, I was going to make a big deal with the White Knight, but now it seems that the Primordial Fire can consider repairing the church. ”
Hearing this, Abel was really a little panicked, it was not a bad thing for him to get the funds from the Primal Flame, but the important thing was that if George knew that he had let a sum of money flow from the Order to the Primordial Flame, his status in the teacher's heart would be greatly reduced.
In an instant, Abel even wanted to kill all the people present, but reason told him that this would not solve the problem, so he had to take a few deep breaths, show a smile, and look at Hara:
"I'm sorry, little sister, my big brother was a little rude just now, I'm very sorry. ”
Hara looked at Herwin and asked for his opinion.
Herwin nodded, pretending to be satisfied:
"In that case, maybe consider having the Knights negotiate some business with the Primordial Flame. ”
Herwin didn't plan to just talk to the Knights, since he wanted to make money, he naturally wanted to make everyone's money.
"Anyway, I haven't asked for your name yet. ”
"My name is Wright, and this is my niece Alice. Herwin pointed at Hara.
Abel smiled like a spring breeze again and said:
"Nice to meet you. ”
After Abel left and there was no one around, Hola looked at Herwin:
"Is Alice my new name?"
"It's just a pair of kana, I'm going to do something here, and you've called me Wright in front of others during this time. ”
Wright is a fake identity that he can abandon when he gets the heart of the Frost Giant.
Hola seems to have some difficulty accepting the change of title:
"Okay, He...... Wright. ”
Herwin took little "Alice" into the villa, and he told Hara to go inside first, and he went to the courtyard alone.
He took a small ash branch from his bosom, stuck it in the clearing, and sat down in front of it.
"Trasil, why do I keep getting in trouble even if I don't do anything. ”
The branches swayed gently.
"Everyone keeps climbing up, what is it for? Is it for peace of mind? But in fact, the probability of dying on the way to becoming stronger is much greater than ordinary life.
"Is it for enjoyment? Wine, beds, power, these things used to be so readily available to me, but I didn't bother to look at them. ”
The branch shook again.
"It's true that the feeling of sitting in the clouds is fascinating, but it's not our time anymore, to put it nicely, I'm an incognito mysterious weirdo, to put it mildly, I'm just an old guy who has been eliminated by the times.
"But then again, even if I was just an ordinary witcher and killed some ordinary monsters with no intelligence, they still found me, dug out my heart, and buried it somewhere.
"I don't even know those guys, if it weren't for the fact that I was the first target, the world would have been ravaged by monsters. ”
Herwin sighed softly, the dim sunlight scattered on him, and the ash branches gently leaned against him, comforting the witcher with his actions.
The girl pushed open the door and watched as several green branches grew from a small tree, gently holding the witcher who was falling asleep.
The girl didn't know what kind of past Herwin had, and she didn't know why he would lend a helping hand to her, but the girl knew that it was he who saved herself from that place where she didn't see the light of day.
It's not the woman who broke the cage, it's not the liar she met on the road, it's not the countless guys who turn a blind eye to her, it's Hervin.
Herwin didn't cling to her past, as long as she showed an expression that she didn't want to mention, Herwin never asked her again, and Hara knew that Herwin was waiting for her to say it herself.
But she had already decided, and she would never open her mouth unless Herwin asked again.
If Herwin also left her, she would have nothing.
The girl crept back into the house, clutching a quilt larger than her, and slowly walked over to Hewen and gently covered him.
The girl went back into the house, dragged a small quilt out again, threw herself beside Hewen, and crept into it herself, smiling contentedly.
