I felt numb in my left hand, as heavy as lead. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info I struggled hard, but I couldn't escape.

Eventually, my mind was so dull that I could no longer calm my thoughts, and a feeling of palpitations filled my heart, growing stronger and stronger, until it woke me up.

I sat up in shock, only to find that my left hand was being torn painfully, and when I looked closely, Gray's boy was pressed against my arm and I couldn't move.

I pushed Gray away to wake him up, gasping for breath and sweating all over my forehead.

I saw that the room was spacious and quiet, a bright bedroom, but full of strangeness, and I realized at once that I had returned to Doddrow, and the place I was in was no longer the mansion I knew at 13 Duchy Road.

After I woke him up, Gray accidentally fell to the ground, and when his face reappeared in front of my eyes, he still had a dazed expression.

I looked out through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and the sunlight on my face was unusually warm and warm.

I was wearing a loose hospital gown with a bandage around my forehead. I looked at my tightly wrapped arm and felt a little incredible.

Now I don't feel any pain and discomfort in my back and chest, maybe I haven't felt comfortable for a long time, but at this moment I actually feel very comfortable and cool, very comfortable.

"When?" I asked, getting out of bed and walking in the direction of the floor-to-ceiling window, perhaps I hadn't seen the light for a long time, and I really wanted to be immersed in the sun now, as if doing so would wash away everything that had happened to me.

"You mean how long have you been back from Evenerga? It didn't take much time, just two and a half days later. Gray replied.

I leaned against the golden veil by the window and looked out, full of dilapidated houses, but the army had begun to help the residents rest their houses, and they showed a little bit of new vitality. The repairs in the city were carried out in an orderly manner, and it seemed that the previous demonic invasion did not bring a trace of despair to the people here, and everyone quickly adjusted their mood and struggled to rebuild their homes. I looked down from the upper floors and saw in the alleys in the distance where Ellis and his troops were distributing food and maintaining order in the city. I was suddenly relieved to see that nothing had happened to her.

The sun was shining directly on my face and I felt warm. I looked down at my fingers and felt unreal. After going through so many things these days, my nerves have been in a state of tension, and now that they are relaxed, I feel a little unaccustomed.

I looked back at Gray standing behind me, and though it had only been a few days, it seemed like I hadn't seen him in a long time. His expression was as cynical as usual, and he was still wearing a colorful and gorgeous robe, the kind of greasy feeling that was familiar to hate on weekdays, but today somehow made me feel a little warm, and that feeling was very comfortable.

Xu I stared at him for too long, Gray frowned and said with a look of disgust, "Why are you looking at me like that?" Could it be that Ivanger went to Ivange and suddenly found out that I was your true love? ”

I didn't say anything, just reached out and hugged him. Gray's expression was a little surprised at first, then he smiled indifferently and accepted it, and at the same time, he reached out to put his arm around my back and whispered in my ear, "It's good to come back." ”

As the mansion at 13 Duchy Road was badly damaged by this demonic raid, we temporarily moved to another residence in the city. Through Gray's words, I know that Onilla has also returned to Dordro and is now recuperating in her own home. Thanks to the timely orders and instructions issued by the royal palace, the reconstruction of the city is now proceeding in an orderly manner.

I looked at Gray and moved my lips, "So, what about Rand?" Why didn't I see him? ”

He ...... From the moment he brought you back to Dodro, he immediately entered the palace. In the past few days, he has been in the palace to deal with and direct the affairs of the city. In the future, he is afraid that he will live in the palace and will not return to this mansion. Gray said cautiously, observing my expression, as if afraid of upsetting me.

I didn't speak, but I only felt a little bitter in my heart: yes! After such a catastrophe, all the princes except him had died, and now he was indeed the only one who could bear these responsibilities. When this is over, he should also inherit the entire Duchy of Salandel and become a monarch. Although I had hoped for such a scene before, how could my feelings become complicated again when it actually happened?

This may be because although I don't want to understand, I know in my heart that even if Rand is still a rand, when he becomes a monarch, I will not and cannot face him in the same state of mind as before.

Thinking of this, my mood suddenly darkened again, because I knew that although I successfully got Rand back this time, the conflict between us was not resolved. The things I deceived him about before, even if none of us mentioned it again, but that thorn has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the two of us, and it can never be erased. I have a more sensitive personality due to the environment I grew up in, and although he is gentle and kind on the surface, he has actually a more sensitive personality when he grew up carefully in the royal family, so it is impossible for us to get along as if nothing had happened.

Gray saw that I knew what I was thinking, he coughed to distract me, and then handed me two pieces of paper: "By the way, the materials you submitted at the recruitment point in the Holy Court last time have already arrived, and they said that talents like you are needed, and you can go to the designated place to report on time in half a month." ”

I took the paper he handed me, and suddenly I felt a little comforting in my heart: since you can't face it, don't face it. At this point, no one should harm Rand, and it's time for him to get out of the way. Leaving at the right time was the most appropriate choice for me and for Rand. In the city of Dodro, there has never been a shortage of gossip and notoriety in me. The former Rand could ignore these rumors and stay with me. But that's no longer the case. The future monarch of the principality must not have a person like me who is of unknown origin and full of abnormalities. Rand needs to think about all things, care about all things, balance all kinds of relationships, my presence will only give others the opportunity to attack and interrogate him, and become an obstacle without the slightest help.

I looked closely at the information that Gray handed over, and suddenly realized that something was wrong. I pulled out the piece of paper below and asked, "You signed up too?" When was this? ”

Gray sat on the edge of the bed and smiled, "Why did you forget?" Didn't I fill out one of the registration forms when you filled out the registration form that day? But at that time, you thought you were too focused on things to notice what I was doing......"

I was a little puzzled: "Why do you want to join in the fun?" You have made a great contribution to this matter, and if you choose to stay in Dordero, I believe that Rand will definitely entrust you with important responsibilities......"

Gray waved his hand, his expression rather casual. He interrupted me, dusted off his legs, and said, "I'm used to idleness, and I'm not interested in such things. In my life, I just want to experience all kinds of life at ease. It's not impossible to experience the life of an explorer with you this time, maybe it's very interesting? Besides, although Rand has been taking care of my life these days, after all, you are my friend, and I don't have such a deep friendship with him. If you stay alone in this city, you won't be suffocated? ”

Somehow, listening to his words, I felt a little warm in my heart. Obviously, I didn't like the person in front of me very much before, and I didn't like his squishy heart and mouth. But when he said this, he felt a little moved. This is probably the tacit understanding reached after overcoming difficulties and obstacles together!

The sunlight outside is even more intense, and it seems to be a little hot in this winter. After I was sure that I had no problems with my muscles and bones and could move normally, I changed into a regular suit and asked Gray to accompany me to the street for a good walk. I'm going to take advantage of this last half month to keep this city in my heart for seven years, because I know that I may never set foot here again.

The streets were crowded with people because of the rebuilding work everywhere, and people did not seem to be depressed by the disaster of the previous days, but were trying to rebuild their homes. This is a group of optimistic people who are working hard for themselves and their country. But when the resting people saw me passing by, their expressions suddenly became gloomy, and the busy people also looked sideways.

They stopped what they were doing and looked at me with a bad face, and although they didn't say anything, the vigilance and fear in their eyes showed their hostility to me very bluntly. It's just that I'm used to this kind of thing these days.

I knew I didn't have a good reputation in the city, and the last assassination of Aubrey had leaked some of the news. Whether it was stabbing Rand or killing Aubrey, what I did in the city and born poor was enough to make others hate. Not to mention that now in the eyes of others, I am a villain who is about to ascend to the throne by virtue of my relationship with Rand.

I turned away from the gaze of the crowd, and since I wasn't welcome, I'd better leave on my own.

As a result, Gray and I had just turned around and walked to the corner of the street, when we were confronted by Light Xiu. It's better to say that he has been waiting for me all along.
