It's so dark, where is this?

Rod groped his way through the darkness, "Eh, I see, I'm dead." ”

"So is this hell?" Rod looked at the boundless darkness around him, and his heart was extremely frightened and lonely.

He began to be afraid, not only of the darkness, but of not responding, of being alone.

"It's so dark, anyone, are there ghosts, demons, Satan, or Enma-sama should make some noise?" Rod shouted in despair, "I don't want to be alone." ”

A flash of purple lightning pierced the darkness.

Bang!

A huge thunderclap sounded like a speeding train in your ears.

In this dark space, lightning began to start, and thunder rumbled.

Rhodes looked at the world where lightning shone brightly, and a building loomed in the distance.

Rumble!

A lightning strike fell in a place near Rhodes, causing Rhodes to jump up like a rabbit.

I've been struck by lightning before, and I don't want to feel it again. Rod hurriedly ran.

This thunder seemed to be deliberately chasing Rhodes, and kept sending heavenly punishments near Rhodes.

wrsndm。 Rhodes thought that sooner or later he would be beaten again, although he didn't know where it was, but it was better to run first. By the way, there seems to be a place over there that should be deliberately hidden, Rod thought to himself.

With that, Rhodes ran towards the building in the distance.

"Whew, it's finally safe. Rod gasped.

Strange to say, since stepping into this place, the thunder seems to have quieted down, but the lightning still keeps lighting up in the distance.

Finally came to the location of the building, and by the light of lightning, Rhodes saw that the building was a bit like an altar, and by looking at it, Rhodes found that there seemed to be something on the top of the altar.

The altar is pyramid-shaped, surrounded by steps that continue upwards and the top resembles a square platform. Rod climbed the stairs and climbed to the top, finally reaching the top.

In the middle there were several strange-shaped stone pillars, in a circular shape around the middle of a tree stump, and in the middle of this stump, something was shining faintly.

Rod approached slowly, skirting the stone pillar to the middle. When I looked closely, the glowing thing in the middle of the stump was actually a book.

The book seemed to have magical power, tempting Rod's hand to approach involuntarily, and just as he was about to touch the book, a thick thunderbolt directly above slashed towards Rhodes with a dazzling light, emitting a dazzling light in this dark space.

Under the severe pain, Rod had not yet lost consciousness, he felt that the blood in his whole body was condensing to the outside of the skin, and under the extreme pain, Rode's eyes seemed to see a piece of light, and then, the whole world in his eyes changed from extremely black to pure white!

"Ahh

The door was pushed open, and a girl walked in, "You're finally awake, you can really sleep." ”

Rod was a little confused at this time, a little confused, looked at his hands and slapped his face a few times. "I'm still alive, where am I, who are you?"

"My name is Solena, and I'm an ordinary person, and I'm your doctor for the time being. Solina flicked the long hair in front of her behind her with one hand, and with a flick of her wrist, the long black hair was tied up, "What are you looking at me for?"

"Hmm!?huh...... Didn't do anything. Rod blushed a little, and said in surprise that it was so beautiful.

Where has Rod seen such a beauty before, ah, no, Rod has never seen a woman before. Comical.

"Am I good-looking?" Solena turned her back to Rhodes and turned her head to look at him out of the corner of her eye.

"Good, good-looking. Rod swallowed, and at this time it seemed that he could only answer.

A subtle smile appeared on the corner of Solena's mouth, as if she was satisfied with Rod's answer.

"Jack will be coming over soon, and it looks like you're in good spirits. Sorina said. At this time, Rod's stomach screamed in embarrassment.

"This, I ..... Forehead...... "Rod was embarrassed. But he did feel like he was fainting from hunger.

"Looks like you're hungry, but I only have what to drink, do you want something to drink?" Solena asked Rhodes as she held her notebook and prepared to record it, not noticing that the two upright balls on her chest shook slightly in front of Rhodes' eyes.

Swallowing his saliva, Rod involuntarily said, "I want to drink, drink milk." Then she looked at Solena somewhere.

"Milk?" Solena paused for a moment as she recorded the pen, and then saw Rod's look like a fool, and suddenly understood something, her face was instantly flushed, and she threw the notebook on Rod's face.

"You don't look very old, but you're quite psychologically perverted!" Solena had a little anger on her face, the pen in her hand was gone, and it instantly turned into a scalpel, looking at him with bad intentions, and even showing a little evil smile.

"No, no, no, you listen to me, I'm ......," Rhodes explained, waving his hands, panicking, for fear that Solena would cut him off.

In the panic, no one noticed a faint flash of light, Solena's hand was numb, and the scalpel fell to the ground with a clang.

The door suddenly opened, and Jack walked in, seeing a smile on the face of the person on the bed: "Rod, you're finally awake." ”

Solena silently picked up the scalpel and showed a bright smile, "Jack, Rod, I'm leaving, you talk." ”

"Thank you, Sister Sorena. Jack said.

"Sister?" Rod was shocked.

Solena didn't explain, turned her head to leave, and when she opened the door, she suddenly turned back to Rhodes and smiled and said, "We should meet again in the future." ”

It's just that this smile seems to be more terrifying than a demon in Rhodes's eyes......

At an ornate table, two boys are eating dinner.

One of them was frantically eating the food in front of him, occasionally picking up the cup on his left hand and taking a sip of sweet wine.

The attendant behind him brought another plate of roast chicken, and the diner didn't need a knife and fork, so he pulled out a chicken leg with his right hand and began to eat it heavily.

"Rod, you eat slowly, it's enough. Jack wiped the sweat from his forehead, he had never seen anyone eat dinner like this.

Compared to Rod, there was only a small steak on the delicate little plate in front of Jack, along with a few vegetables and a glass of milk. He cut off a small piece of steak and forked it in his mouth, tasted it carefully, picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, and began to say: "Rod, I apologize to you for this incident, I didn't expect such a thing to happen." ”

Rod said heartlessly: "It's okay, you also told me on the way that this is just a test, fortunately I didn't betray you, but this test is indeed too real and too scary." I almost didn't get to taste this delicious dinner. ”

When Rod said this, he burst into tears in his heart: Who have I offended, why should I test me, did I agree? Woo woo, for the sake of food, forgive you. After all, there's nothing I can do.

"Eh, another veal, it's delicious. Rod instructed the attendant, and said in his heart: Jack said, this meal is his, and he will not eat it for nothing.

"Uh~" After a full hiccups, Rod was satisfied and leaned back in his chair. Eat and drink enough, so comfortable. "Thank you for inviting me to dinner, Jack. I think it's time for me to go back, I guess I'll live a lot without taking care of the garden for a few days. Oh, your personal chef is so good, I didn't expect you to eat so well. ”

With that, Rhodes was ready to get up and leave.

"Well, actually, Father will be coming to see you soon......" Jack said slowly, looking at Rod.

Before he finished speaking, Hilbert pushed the door in, saw the results on the table, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Young men, it seems that you have a good appetite tonight." ”

The attendants walked in one after another, brought Hilbert a chair, and quickly cleaned up the table, and after only a few minutes, the attendants left with a mess of the table, leaving three men and a clean environment.

"Rod, are you alright?" Hilbert asked.

Rod was a little overwhelmed and didn't know why he was asking, and returned: "Ahh The food was great and nice. I would even like to ...... again."

"Ahem, well, I mean you're okay. Hilbert asked.

"Ah, that, it's okay, I feel like I'm recovering well, even better than before. Hahahahaha. Rod smiled awkwardly and replied.

"First of all, I want to apologize to you, because of Jack's matter, I have to be cautious. "Second, I'll make it up to you." ”

"Don't say that, I'm fine. I can understand, um? compensate? that what. Rod seemed to hear something unbelievable to him, ten thousand roses bloomed in his heart, and a smile instantly appeared on his face, "I, how could I want to make amends, haha, that compensation or something, haha, compensation, I really don't want to make amends." No, absolutely not. ”

Jack:......

Hilbert:......

Jack and Hilbert are full of black lines, what kind of monster is this man???

"Ahem, okay Rod. Hilbert looked at the smirking Rod and waved his hand, "The compensation is due, you just have to accept it." First of all, I will cancel your subordinate. In addition, you can associate with Jack in the future, so I will arrange a decent position for you, such as training you as a butler or secretary for future Jack. If you have anything else you want, you can also add. ”

？

Cancellation of subordinate?

Rod was taken aback, and not only canceled but also assigned me a better position? There is fraud, there is absolutely fraud! Can I, Rhode, meet such a pie-in-the-sky good thing? If I can meet it, the sows will go up the tree!

"Why don't you thank Father?" Jack pushed Rode, who was stunned.

Seeing Hilbert's serious expression not like a joke at all, Rod realized that pie really fell from the sky. He looked out the window, at the side of the pig farmhouse, and under the lamp in the yard, a sow jumped up a tree......

Rod:......

"Hmm!?, thank you very much, sir. Rodt replied incoherently, and suddenly thought of something, "That master, I, can I not be the young master's housekeeper or secretary?" In fact, I am very eager for the master's collection of books, or let me be the keeper of the master's library, it may be very suitable for my status. ”

"Well, in fact, you are my personal confidant for Jack, and you will be considered your own member of the Edwin family in the future, and your personal cronies can't spend their time on useless work. Hilbert touched his chin with his left hand, "Well, it's okay, suddenly you will be promoted to Jack's butler or secretary, there will inevitably be gossip, I didn't expect you to like my collection, then, from today onwards, you will be the deputy director of the library." ”

Hilbert pulled out a coin-shaped object from his bosom with the emblem of the Edwin family, the eagle standing on the sword.

"I'll go and say hello to the librarian, and the deputy librarian is an idle position, and the work is usually handled by the librarian Chris, so you have enough time to read the books you are interested in, and this position will not gossip with Jack. Hilbert shoved the coin to Rhodes, "Put on this family crest, and you will be a member of my Edwin family from now on." ”

That's it?

That's it?

That's it?

It doesn't seem to be as miserable as he imagined, and Rhodes was a little excited in his heart, as if everything was starting to develop in a good direction.

"Great, Rod. Jack looked at Rhodes and smiled.

"Thank you, master, I will do my best for the Edwin family, and after death, I will go up the knife mountain, go down to the sea of fire, and break my bones, and I will not hesitate%¥......&&*#¥" Rod couldn't stop thanking, his face was full of irrepressible excitement.

"Then let's go first. Father. Jack Clat beeped Rode, "Let's go and register, you won't be a subordinate tomorrow." ”

Looking at the backs of the two children leaving, a smile appeared on the corner of Hilbert's mouth, and he took a sip of red wine. Wallace walked out of the shadows next to him, "Sir, this is a very different fellow. ”

"yes, it's different, do you want to play chess?" asked Hilbert.

"No, sir, it's too late today, you need to rest. Wallace said.

"Ah, that's right. Hilbert got up and straightened his neckline.

"Do you like to read? It seems that there is real potential for the development of magic. Hilbert walked down the hallway, a smile on his face.

"What a good chess piece. ”
