Chapter 10: Joining the Army

"So, what are your plans?"

I asked Andrew Dao.

Andrew pondered for a long time on the side, and said slowly: "I plan to rejoin the army!" ”

"Rejoin the army."

I looked at him in amazement, although I didn't say that I thought he couldn't join the army, the original owner of my body, a kid named Luga, was originally in a legion with him, but is it really okay to go back like this, not to mention who can take us both in, first to say who we can go to, and besides, the most important thing is who we should go to?

Andrew seemed to see my suspicions, only to see him smile and say, "I still have doubts about your identity, thinking that you are a goth spy hidden within the Legion. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Hearing the word gothic spy again, I realized from the beginning that it wasn't a compliment. I almost killed him for this, but now that I can sit down calmly, I'm going to ask him what the hell is going on!

I saw Andrew let out a long sigh and said, "If it weren't for the fact that there were too many barbarians in that legion, there would be no spies within us at all!" ”

"What do you mean, you're saying that because of the Goths' spies, you failed?"

"Forget it." Andrew shook his head, and continued: "You must have suffered some curse that caused your strange behavior now, but don't worry, according to the confirmation of Dr. Bella and her wife, I now believe that you are a real Roman, and even more so a comrade-in-arms in the same legion as me, so, as the only soldier left in the Legion of Gemina, I will join you, my friend, and when you and I have recovered from my wounds, I will take the banner of the Legion of Gemina and lead you to His Excellency Aetius, the marshal of the Legion of the Gallic provinces." , I think he will agree with us both in the heroic performance of the Gemina Legion! ”

Aetius, isn't this the last Roman general of Western Rome? So I was at the end of the Western Roman Empire, and since I was going to join Aetius, then I was in the age of the conquest, which was between 430 and 455 AD.

"Holy!"

I held my forehead and whispered, "Why can't I be reborn in a better era, at least when I can avoid war, can't I live in peace?" "In order to escape such a life, I would like to die again, in this era of war and chaos, everyone pins their heads to the waistband of their trousers, and God knows when they will die unconsciously. Anyway, I don't want to stay in this era, but what is the way to escape? Is it to kill yourself now? What should I do if I can't wake up after playing like this? I was struggling inside, and I didn't hear what Andrew said next, until Andrew got up and said goodbye to me.

Until Andrew walked out of the door, this slightly popular room returned to calm, leaving me alone, it must have been the wound in front of me that caused me to lose too much blood, and soon the sleepiness filled my whole body, closed my eyes, and recalled Xiaoya's appearance in my head again, of course, and my parents, I really don't know how much time it will take to meet again, or never see each other again, so I can see each other in my sleep, no need to speak, just take a look! Thinking about it, a tear crossed my waist unconsciously, but soon I fell into a deep sleep, and it was a pity that I didn't dream, of course, the dream of meeting was so disappointed.

After Dr. Bella's careful care, the wound in my abdomen healed quickly and visually, and I was able to walk on the ground without help in just a week, Bella's wife only learned her name "Plasvia" after this time of getting along, and when Prasvia mentioned that she wanted the girl to take care of me, I smiled and refused, although the reason I explained to her was that I was sad because I was afraid that she would see my embarrassment, in fact, the real reason was that I was afraid that this girl was really "Dulcinea", If I want such a "girl" to take care of me, I'm afraid I may really not be able to stand up, because my legs are weak from fear!

Unconsciously, half a month of time spent in the daily repetition of the dressing, here I have to say that the food I eat every day, although the life of Dr. Bella's family is poor, but the food is acceptable except for no meat, after all, it is the predecessor of a food country (Italy), let me really experience the Western food from a thousand years ago, cabbage soup and toast, because it is a fishing village, I am fortunate to be able to eat grilled fish, although there is no seasoning, the taste is not very good, there is better than nothing! Oh, I forgot to mention that in their eyes, fish is a vegetarian dish, not a meat dish, and it may not be as good as meat.

The wound in the abdomen is almost healed, and there is no pain, and the itching during the growth of nerve endings has become the biggest trouble at the moment!

Oh, and I forgot to mention that Andrew doesn't need to be called lame anymore, because the wound on his leg has healed, and he is no longer so limping when he walks. I wasn't so happy because it was a sign that the day of returning to the army was getting closer! He stared at the Legion flag every day, even when he slept, for fear that someone would steal it from him and cut off his way back to the Legion.

Early this morning, I was awakened by a slight shaking, and when I opened my eyes, I found that it was Andrew, and through the window shining in the light of the morning sun, which was not very bright, I saw that Andrew was actually fully armed, holding a helmet in his left hand and a regimental flag in his right hand, and said to me in a deep voice: "Luga, it's time to go on your way!" ”

I got up in a daze, and when I saw him dressed like this, I knew what he meant without asking, and got out of bed, and opened the large box at the head of the bed, which contained my chain mail and helmet, as well as the shield and iron sword that I wore on my body when I was drifting. I took out the chain mail and propped it up, and looked carefully for the broken part of the abdomen, but I couldn't find it when I turned it over.

"No need to look for it."

Andrew said behind me, "When you were unconscious, Plasvia took this set of chain mail to the village blacksmith to repair and clean it, and you can't see any signs of damage now!" ”

"It's fixed."

I looked at this intact, no, it should be a brand new chain mail and muttered, and now my heart softened, and I didn't want to leave, I really couldn't imagine that in such a short two weeks, I could form such a deep relationship with Mr. and Mrs. Bella, and the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Bella reminded me of my original home, but I couldn't go back.

There are relatives, not expeditions.

I wavered, even if it was to say goodbye to them when I left, but this little request was firmly rejected by Andrew, his reason is very simple, we are soldiers of the empire, there should not be such a weakness, because many people have lost their families when they joined the army, and the army has become their home, so they have never walked their relatives or even lovers until they die.

This reason convinced me, and with his help I put on the chain mail, which was enough to weigh fifteen kilograms, and it was hard to imagine an old woman as old as Prasvia carrying such a heavy ring to the blacksmith and back from there.

"Don't take any chances, Aurius. Luga. Andrew patted me on the shoulder, "You have to know that you don't belong here!" ”
