56. Chapter 56
Three months ago, Mr. Witt took me and my mother to Mr. Witt, and he asked Mr. Witt to take us in, Mr. Witt was cold on the surface, but in fact he was a very soft-hearted and loving person, he took us in, and then Mr. Witt borrowed the room and did not know what to do, and when it was dawn, I was resurrected, and Mr. Witt took my mother to be buried, and I stayed here to be cared for by Mr. Witt, during which three months Mr. Witt often came to see me in secret, and brought a lot of food and money to Mr. Witt.
"That's all I know, I'm not interested in knowing about you." "As for Artelius, he last came half a month ago, and he is now very busy, so I'm afraid he won't have time to come to you." It will take you a while to regain your ability to walk, so you can ask him again when the time comes. ”
"He's busy?"
"Of course, while you were unconscious, something big happened, the mermaid lord was replaced." Mr. Witt looked at me a little surprised and said, "I didn't go to the shore to watch, but the battle for the position of mermaid lord lasted for three days and three nights, during which there were thunderstorms, lightning and torrential rains every day, and several times it almost caused a tsunami. The battle ended with the defeat of Mystyc, who was succeeded by a new lord, Artelius. Five days later, the new lord had a succession ceremony, I went to see him, and I almost didn't recognize him, his appearance and some of his appearance had changed so much, it was almost like a combination of Mystic and him, but no one in the merfolk race objected, probably because something had happened inside them to make it like this. In short, the scene was quite spectacular, the new lord announced in public the abolition of the sacrifice, and said that the mermaids and humans would never come to attack, and that they would coexist peacefully, and that if there was any violation, they would be severely punished by the god Ai and the god of the sea. ”
I was so surprised that I didn't know what to say, and according to Mr. Witt, he defeated Mystic, who was stronger than him, and fused with Mysticus to become Artelius.
"What about Mystik?"
Actually, I want to ask, so what about release? Is it still a release to Arteles? It's just that even if you ask this question, you can't get an answer.
"Nobody knows where he went, and no one saw him again after the battle, not even anyone who went out to sea to fish. There are suspicions that he is dead. ”
I fell silent, Mystyk had wanted to eat the release to fuse, and if Mystyk was gone, it could only be that he was released...... I don't know how Nassar is doing now, I'm a little worried about him, and from the previous relationship, I can feel that he has affection for Mystic.
Let's hope he doesn't do anything crazy.
"Do you know where my mother is buried?"
"Unfortunately, I don't know, Artelius said, and when you wake up, you will ask him in person."
"I obviously can't leave at the moment," I gestured to my legs, "do you have a way to contact Artelius?" ”
"No, he usually comes to me, and quite irregularly, if he comes next time, please tell him, don't come in the early hours of the morning, the slime on his body will make the floor quite slippery, and I always almost slip when I wake up in the middle of the night."
I held back a smile and nodded, "I will definitely sue him." Since I can't reach him, I'll have to wait here, hoping that he will come as soon as possible, and I'm looking forward to seeing him again. ”
The next night, Shi appeared, with someone I didn't expect.
Ben Leiz.
"I think I said, my house is not a shelter or a hospital, please don't bring anyone to my house, okay?" Mr. Witt protested dissatisfied.
In fact, seeing Ben's appearance, I think I can explain why I brought him here.
Ben's condition was quite bad, he seemed to have been soaking in the sea for many days, his skin was white and wrinkled, and what was even more terrible was that he had multiple wounds on his body, several of which were almost fatal, and if he hadn't been strong-willed, he might have died in the sea long ago.
He was not in the institute with excellent medical conditions, but he appeared here, and I guess he may have had some kind of conflict or trouble with the institute, so Shi had to bring him here (the mermaid habitat has humid air all year round, and it is not suitable for humans to recuperate).
"Moza?" Shi didn't seem to have put Mr. Witt's words in his ears, and carried the unconscious Ben into the room, put it on a stool, and then found a cloth towel to help Ben wipe his face.
I walked over with my cane and patted Mr. Witt on the shoulder: "I'm sorry, this is my friend, this is a special situation now, please take him in for a few days, and when his wound is healed, I will definitely kick him out." ”
Mr. Witt reluctantly prepared hot water for us and left.
I didn't care about reminiscing with Shi, so I put Ben on my bed with Shi, helped him deal with the wound, wiped the medicine, and only after I had finished it was relieved.
Ben's breathing eased and it seemed that there was no danger anymore, so I softly closed the door and carefully went out with Shi's support.
After going to sweep my mother's grave, we walked slowly down the street.
It was already late at night, there were few people moving around on the road, and it was eerily quiet.
I hadn't seen each other in months, but I didn't know what to say when I said goodbye.
As Mr. Witt said, the Buddha in front of him had been reborn, and he had taken on the form of Artelius, with long silver curls reaching the crooks of human knees, and silver fishtails shining like the Milky Way in the moonlight.
He has grown up, and in three months he has grown into an adult mermaid, and he is even half a head taller than me, and the muscles of his upper body are swollen, and the lines are even, full of power. He even learned to dress up, wearing a silver crown on his head, a silver earring pinned to his ear fins, and an arm tame with a symbol of royal power on his right arm, noble and majestic, which is synonymous with him now.
I just noticed that he was saying "Moza" instead of "Moda" when he expressed his doubts, which means that he is truly an adult.
"Shi ......" walked to the alley, I turned my head to look at Shi, and after thinking for a long time, I said, "Should I call you Shi or Artelius?" ”
"Shi," Shiki gently wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me tenderly on the forehead, "It's your name." ”
It's like being hit by Cupid's arrow, my heart is beating so fast, this is probably the taste of love, it's so shameful to be so excited because of my lover's words that I blushed and my heart beat or something.
"Shi, are you serious?" I stroked my face and stared silently into the eyes that had once amazed me.
"Of course, we have entered into a marriage contract under the witness of Ai God, and from now on, you will be my companion."
I suddenly remembered the song I had heard while I was unconscious, and the words at the end of the song that made the marriage contract.
