Chapter 43

-

Mo Shi lay on the bed, and as his senses recovered further, it was not just the sound of the rain, he also smelled the damp smell in the air, heard the sound of the rain crashing on the roof, and then, there was a commotion outside.

Duna woke up.

The girl, who was born as an "elder sister" and was worried and afraid to take care of him, raised her head to look at the bed and met Mo Shi the moment she was woken up.

Mo Shi tried to put on a relaxed expression and smiled at her.

"Lord Moshi...... God," the girl's jaws opened and closed for a moment, and finally blinked her moist eyes, and her ears were relaxed and half-drooped, "You're fine, my lord." You're really going to freak the hell out of me. How are you always, always...... Alas, sir, you don't know how scared I was yesterday. ”

The girl cared about his body and didn't mention the chaos he had caused yesterday, and Mo Shi was grateful for it.

The throat of the "outer ......" was extremely painful, and the mucous membranes were torn apart when it was opened and closed, as if it had been cut by a knife, and the girl quickly picked up the water bowl placed at the head of the bed for him.

The water smelled of dirt and snow and ice.

Mo Shi breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he was slowly recovering.

"What's going on out there?" he asked, dumbfounded. Motioned for Duna to go out and have a look.

Duna opened the door and looked out, then walked out.

After a while, she ran back, her fur wet from the rain.

"Lord Moshi, they said there might be a flood, and there was a bad sound coming from upstream. Heavy rain began in the second half of the night yesterday...... Master Dino said that if you wake up, get ready to go. ”

-

The flood was a kind of luck for Moshi.

Melting water in the mountains, heavy rainfall, and the low and flat terrain of the Silver Plains are all reasons for a quick evacuation. No one has the leisure to think about Mo Shi anymore. Mo Shi remained silent and low-key, never took the initiative to speak, never walked around without permission, and was determined to play the role of a good retainer under the wings of the fire sparrow.

Under the harsh light of nature, the firesparrow and the autumn crow no longer care about playing intrigue tricks. The two sides did not even have a farewell ceremony, and hurriedly left the Silver Plain, one facing west, the other facing east, and walking in both directions.

The envoys of the kingdom also went south and returned to the royal capital.

This is the end of this war, and it is officially over.

For Moshi, of course, this is not the end, or even the end of a certain stage. He knew how strange and suspicious his identity was.

The conditions in his favor are not for nothing:

One, his appearance is in line with the image of the aristocratic Heyal of the snowwalkers, which can almost be said to be a life saver and a necessity for survival without anyone questioning his race.

Second, Mo Shi was fortunate to be included in the Firebird family. As far as he knew, the Snowwalker had a strong sense of family, and for the great nobles, all retainers were included as some kind of property that involved their own glory. In other words, to some extent, we share honor and disgrace. For this reason, the firesparrow will do its best to give him proper protection.

Third, Moshi has a unique spell that is different from the magic system here. But this can be both lucky and unlucky.

Fourth, Moshi's native language is very different from the snowwalker language, and there are almost no similarly overlapping word combinations – which is important. It is for this reason that, despite the human vocals made by the bluebird before, it is impossible for the snowwalker to understand, or even necessarily think that it is a language. This greatly reduces the suspicion of others about him.

Five, perhaps...... Moshi needs to gamble on Dino Firesparrow's friendship and affection for him, as well as the Duke of Firesparrow's attitude towards magic and strangers.

So, what about itself?

He thought again.

Am I worthy of care and favor?

-

After coming to this land, he experienced frostbite, inflammation, and the loss of control of the magical nerve bundles, coupled with the current bad weather conditions and the bumpy road for days, which almost made Mo Shi's life worse than death.

If it weren't for Du Na's careful care and Blue Bird's magic skills, Mo Shizhen didn't think he would have been able to reach Wet Feather City alive.

But the problems that need to be solved will not wait for Mo Shi's body to heal, and he must be strong to protect himself. He's too weak to have a one-step off the pool right now.

As Mo Shi expected, on the second night after the group returned to Chisha Castle, the Duke invited him to his study: "I think we need to talk briefly about you. ”

The duke's attitude was polite, but Mo Shi did not feel relaxed because of this.

Diffonor Firebird sat beside his father, carelessly tending to his weapon.

There was a small fire in the fireplace, and outside the house it was the cold rain of "summer".

"Yes, Your Highness. Mo Shi said respectfully, bowing his head deeply, "I need to apologize to you and ask for your forgiveness. Because I have lost my memory, I have not really understood the spells I have mastered for a long time, and I have disgraced the Duke in front of the autumn crow. ”

His evasive rhetoric played a little role.

"I accept your apologies, Mr. Moshi. The Duke sighed softly, both genuinely and like a show, "I should have rewarded you for your contributions, but this is not the right moment. ”

Mo Shi nodded.

His gaze lowered to the carpet in the center, the full fur of a giant brown beast, and Moshi stepped on its neck, swallowing its feet.

"Admittedly, your magic is not stable enough to fit your status as a mage, and I need to reconsider your position. But, you're clearly a remarkable, um......" the Duke paused.

"Inventor?" Diffindor stopped wiping his long knife and lifted his face.

"Ah, yes. Inventor. Yes, inventors. ”

The term inventor is clearly not commonly used in this day and age.

"My pleasure. Mo Shi lowered his head.

"But," the Duke continued, with a serious and unquestioning expression, "given that you are deficient in magic. And you, with a different appearance from the usual Hyanar, and do not remember your own family - I think you should be allowed to go to the court, and then His Royal Highness the King will give you the best provenance. ”

"Father!" Diffandor stood up, taller and less tough than his father, "I don't think it would be a good decision to rush Mr. Morstone out of the realm. ”

"Diffonor, we've already discussed this. The Duke lowered his eyebrows slightly.

Ah, the Father and the Son, what an eternal theme.

Mo Shi thought to himself.

After all, he doesn't have much say here. He could only wait for the decision they gave him.

"The king's envoy was there at the time!" said the duke's voice, which became low and loud, mixed with the murmur of the dog's throat when he was angry, "can't he see? ”

The Duke pointed to Moshi.

This made Mo Shi flinch slightly. He could now almost understand and speak the language of the snowwalker without relying on the bluebird, but he had to admit that the guttural roar sounded muddy and terrifying.

"But, ......father," the young heir lowered his ears, but he tried to continue expressing his opinion, "father, I think that would be too timid and timid. If the firesparrow can't even protect its own retainers, why should we go to war with the autumn crows before?"

The Duke snorted.

Diffonor kept his mouth shut.

But the Duke did not have a seizure, he just sat back in the fur-covered seat.

"Naturally, Diffonor," he said, looking back at Moshi, "and surely I will not be able to drive Mr. Moshi out in such a terrible rainstorm." The city is not close to here, and there are many large rivers to pass on the way, so it is not suitable for a summer trip. ”

Mo Shi breathed a long sigh of relief.

He knew what he was supposed to do now.

He slowly knelt down on the hide, and warmly thanked the Duke of Firebird and his son for their generosity in taking in him and caring for him.

"Regarding the possible flooding caused by the river......" he said.

Mo Shi looked up.

Diffonor's expression brightened up with the fire.

Mo Shi looked at him, then at the Duke.

"I know how to ...... Build dikes. "Also, make horse harness." ”
