This is a young man in his thirties, with long dashing golden hair, very dazzling, deep eyes of ice blue, extremely sharp eyebrows, as if sharpened from gravel, and looks very handsome.

Aslan felt as if he had been captured by a monster that was so strong that he could not escape from the young man's grasp.

"Little fellow, you are not so brave that you dare to beat my driver."

As the young man's cold voice came out, Aslan's body shook involuntarily, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar all at once, and the chill was to the bone.

At this time, Esmeralda saw the young man who suddenly appeared, and was suddenly stunned, and said with some surprise: "Count Loren, why are you?!" ”

"Huh?"

Count Loren was stunned for a moment, raised his head, looked at the beautiful girl not far away, and was also taken aback, and said, "Miss Ace! ”

"I didn't expect to meet you here."

Esmeralda came up smiling and saluted Count Loren politely: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Lord Count! ”

"I'm glad to see you, Miss Ace." Count Loren smiled faintly.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Aslan, who was pinched by the neck like a little chick, was slightly stunned, and asked Esmeralda, "You guys...... Know? ”

"Of course, Count Loren is the biggest customer of our bakery." Esmeralda said seriously.

"Huh? The Count still eats that unpalatable crumb? Aslan was a little confused.

"It was bought for the servants and guards of the Earl's Court, and if it weren't for Count Loren to take care of our business, Mary's Bakery would have closed down long ago." Esmeralda explained.

"Oh, that's ......" Aslan blinked his eyes and suddenly felt a huge force coming from his neck, as if it was about to crush his neck.

"Shhh It hurts so much, my neck is about to break!! He gasped in pain.

Esmeralda's face changed, and she hurriedly pleaded with Count Loren: "Lord Earl, please raise your noble hand and let him go, he is a newcomer to our shop, and some people who don't understand the rules have collided with you, please don't care." ”

"Haha, since I'm an acquaintance of Miss Ace, I don't have to worry about this little guy."

Count Loren smiled freely and said, "But his method of beating people is indeed a bit dark, I just taught him a small lesson, so that he can remember it for a long time." ”

As he spoke, he pinched the back of Aslan's neck and turned in front of him, and said seriously: "Little guy, if you are lucky, you meet me with a better temper, if it is other nobles who collide, you will not be so easy to ......"

Suddenly, Count Loren's words froze, as if he had seen something incredible, staring at Aslan's ordinary face, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

"Aslan!!"

Count Loren was shocked.

"Huh?"

Aslan's eyes widened, staring at the unfamiliar face in front of him with a puzzled face, and said, "Do we know each other?" ”

He probably hadn't seen the Earl in his memory, and Esmeralda didn't seem to mention his name just now, but Count Loren called out his name......

Or that surprised tone and expression, could it be his former acquaintance?

Count Loren stared at Aslan like this, and was silent for more than thirty seconds, and suddenly stretched his eyebrows, as if he had met an old friend who had not seen him for many years, and laughed happily.

"Hahahaha... Aslan, it's really you! I didn't expect to meet you here, I'm so surprised and so happy! He smiled and patted Aslan on the shoulder, and the anger that was originally charged by the latter suddenly disappeared, and his attitude towards Aslan was very friendly and cordial.

Just now, he was about to teach him a lesson, but now he was smiling from ear to ear like seeing his relatives, and Aslan hadn't turned a corner for a while.

The other party's aristocratic status was there, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he could only learn from Esmeralda's appearance just now, solemnly bent down and saluted to the earl in front of him, and asked cautiously: "Dear Count Loren, what the hell is going on, do you know me?" It seems like we're meeting for the first time today......"

Esmeralda, who was standing quietly next to the carriage, was also confused, wondering why Count Loren was so gaffe when he saw Aslan, so happy, as if he had met a friend who had been reunited after a long absence.

"Could it be that Aslan still knows the Earl of the High?"

The girl blinked, looking at Aslan with some surprise, she felt that this guy was getting more and more mysterious.

"Hehe... Of course! When you first came to the Kingdom of Camelot, or did I entertain you, do you think I recognize you? Count Loren laughed.

"Ahh You entertained me? A Count personally entertained me? Aslan scratched his head, gradually understanding that Count Loren must be an acquaintance of his predecessor.

I didn't expect that his predecessor was penniless, and he actually had a relationship with a noble earl!

Aslan was surprised.

"But Aslan, you don't seem to remember me anymore by looking at your expression, what's the matter?"

Count Loren gradually frowned, staring at Aslan's ordinary and familiar face with some doubts, confirming that it was correct with the face that appeared in his mind, and then slowly asked, "What happened to you that day?" Why did it disappear suddenly? I sent a lot of people to look for you, but I didn't find any trace of you. ”

"I... I ......"

Now the acquaintance of the genuine brand asked a series of questions, and Aslan, a half-hanger who had lost his memory, said hesitantly: "That... I don't remember the day exactly, it was as if I had been beaten with a stick, and then I didn't know anything, and when I woke up, I found myself lying in the middle of nowhere, with all my money and valuables taken from me.

And the blow was very heavy, as if it was not a wooden stick but an iron rod, and it hit the back of my head at once, as if... I lost a lot of memories.

Well! That's how it should be! ”

He made up lies in a serious manner, and said seriously from Count Loren: "That's why I don't remember you, honorable earl!" ”

"Is that so......"

Count Loren's deep eyes swelled with a mysterious light, and the corners of his mouth gradually outlined a gentle smile, and he nodded slightly, as if he really believed Aslan's words.

Aslan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the confusion in the past, and secretly called me a genius!

"Aslan, it's okay if you're okay, if something really happens, I'll fail your teacher's commission." Count Loren sighed: "Nick asked me to take care of you, but I didn't expect that I lost you, I really don't know how to explain it to him." ”

"It's great that you're back now!"

"My teacher?!"

Aslan was slightly stunned, and many broken pictures gradually passed through his mind.

Burning churches, broken ancient bells.

A haggard old man was quietly in the vast sea of fire, he held the sacred cross, his cloudy gray eyes looked at Aslan, and said firmly: "Live!" ”
