Chapter 21: The Flame Saints (3)

When I woke up, I didn't see the candlesticks and chains that I had seen for many days. I was in a trance, but my eyes were suddenly covered by a palm.

"Kolo."

I heard Bena choking up and calling my name.

The hands that cover the eyes are warm, and there is some reassuring weight.

He called me, but there was no more. After a long silence, I took Bena's hand away from my eyes, then slowly sat up and said, "Did you save me, Bena." ”

His eyes were a little red, but there were no tears, his face was resolute, and his bright eyes looked so loyal and reliable.

I looked at his long-lost face, and suddenly ...... I miss it so much.

yes, he should have saved me.

- Just when I thought I was going to die in that dungeon.

I looked left and right, and the place where I was now was Bena's residence in the mercenary group.

It turns out that you have returned to Todai 6.

Bednar sat on the edge of my bed with some restraint and a strange posture, and he stared at me for a long time and said, "You've lost a lot of weight." ”

I smiled bitterly twice, reached out and touched my chin, and the feeling of the prickly prickly on my hand told me that I probably looked very sloppy now.

"Do you want to take a wash?" Bednar asked me.

I was a little embarrassed, and quickly lifted the quilt: "I'll do it myself." ”

"You're still ......," Bernard snapped, and the wheat-colored skin on his cheeks seemed to turn red. I followed his gaze and looked down, but I was ...... The lower body is naked.

"Ahem." Bena coughed twice, "I'll go get you some water, let's clean it up briefly." ”

After saying that, he got up and hurried out. When I saw him get up, a look of pain flashed across his face.

Seeing him like this, I couldn't react for a while.

But in the next second, there were suddenly many fragrant afterimages in my mind.

- I actually put Bena ...... crushed him on gravel and dirt...... Give ...... on the spot I gave it to that......

He seemed to refuse...... I seem to be very obedient, I can't remember clearly, my brain was confused at that time, and I don't know where the strength came from, anyway...... It's just that he overwhelmed him regardless of it, and he made a lot of c△ao△ ruthlessly...... He also said some obscene words......

Oh, my God......

My mind was buzzing, and Bena, who was a friend I trusted, relied on, and even respected, was now ...... But in an extremely embarrassing situation, there is an extra layer of such a relationship......

A joke in the forest of Xida 6, unexpectedly, finally became a fact......

I actually did this to a man...... What should I do, and what kind of face should I use to face him......

I buried my face in my hands.

☆★☆

After a while, I heard the sound of the door being opened.

I bounced up from the bed, hurriedly pulled my clothes from the side and put them on, and looked at him with some embarrassment.

Seeing me like this, Bennar seemed to remember something, and a look of unease flashed across his face. But...... He was much more calm than me, and quietly brought the basin full of water and put it on the table.

"Let's wash."

I pursed my lips, walked over slowly, washed my face with the water in the basin, and then dried it.

With a razor blade in his hand, Bednar patted me gently on the shoulder when he saw that I had finished washing my face, as if trying to help me shave my messy beard.

Looking at his serious face, I didn't know if it was a brain twitch or something, but I reached out and grabbed Bena's hand, allowing the blade to cut a small cut in my chin, and I just watched him speechless......

Am I supposed to act like I didn't have anything to do?

That's too unresponsible.

I felt as if I should have said something, but...... What to say?

Say something like "I'll be responsible" to a man as strong as Bednar...... It doesn't seem to be quite right.

'I've killed Chelsea.' As if he didn't see my tangle, Bena just gently took his hand out of my hand and continued to shave me.

"......" I listened to his simple explanation, as if telling me that the weather was good today, but there was a sudden uproar in my heart: "...... Didn't you say that Chelsea are the nobility of the Western University 6? ”

"Don't worry, I will do this with all certainty." 'He's been in charge of the Chelsea family's land acquisitions and occasionally does something like this for the mercenary group,' said Bena. ”

"Get started...... I didn't care, but then, by chance, it dawned on me that he would use guò to commit murders or plagues and things like that, so as to devalue the land so that it could be bought at a low price. ”

"I had disagreements and frictions with him, and as for what happened later...... You know it all. "Bednar leaned close to my face and helped me shave my beard, his movements neat and his expression extremely serious.

“……”

After a long time, Bednar spoke to me again: "I'm sorry to hurt you." ”

He rubbed my unkempt with his hand, and his face was a little guilty: "It's all because of me that you will encounter such a thing." ”

…… It doesn't seem entirely to be affected by him, I think...... It's more because I'm not capable of it myself, and ...... Not alert enough.

Seeing that I didn't speak, he suddenly reached out and scratched his head: "That...... You won't remember...... That's the thing. ”

“……”

“…… It's okay. Bena pretended to smile lightly and patted his chest: "At that time...... You're delirious, it's just an accident. ”

I pursed my lips, as if I was relieved, and as if my heart was still hanging, it was uncomfortable.

I looked up, but I saw that Bernard had turned his face to clean up the things on the table, and his eyes were looking straight at the basin...... There's a hint of amazement in there.

I stood up and hugged Bednar from behind.

His body trembled, but he didn't struggle.

It was a long time before I heard him call my name in a hoarse voice.

"Bena...... "I don't know what to say, but...... I just feel that since the thing has been born, no matter what circumstances it was born, I should ...... Be accountable.

“…… It hurts a little. ”

I was slightly stunned for a moment when I heard Bennar say this, then I let go of my grip on him and gently took off his coat.

His shoulders and arms were covered in abrasions and cuts, and in some places he was red and swollen.

I reached out and touched it gently, "...... Was it the wound he suffered 'at that time'? ”

"......" Bednar did not speak.

That's it.

The crazy appearance of that day flashed in my mind again......

It's ......

If Chelsea hadn't died, I'd probably have tied him to the cross and cut him with a hundred cuts.
