Chapter 165: Desert Nation (End)
"Why is this wheelchair so heavy......"
As a result, Frankie carried Elle up, and she wasn't heavy anyway, although the stairs were the steps, but it was okay to say. But Knar was not so lucky, the servants and guards around her had their own tasks and would not help her.
So, she had to move the wheelchair up little by little, and since Frankie was still holding Erlie, she couldn't free her hand, and she couldn't help it.
So it took three people about ten minutes to climb the stairs of less than twenty meters.
"It's a wooden wheelchair, so it's going to be heavy..."
Placing Ellie in her wheelchair, Frankie turned her head to look at a panting Conar, who was now leaning against the wall and looking at each other with a grim expression.
"I feel like you did it on purpose, Fran ......"
"Didn't you say you had a lot of strength... So today this heavy responsibility is handed over to you. β
"Cut..."
"You two."
It just so happened that Hull had come up from the back of the stairs, and he was still on crutches, but his spirit and expression were much more relaxed now. Maybe it's because he has better medical conditions to keep him alive when he returns to his home country.
However, for the maids, this person's status was not ordinary, and they immediately stood up respectfully, and then bent down, bowed their heads, and waited for each other's hair.
"Don't get in the way of the staircase entrance."
However, the other party did not plan to pursue this point, after all, Erlie was looking at him, which made him unable to let goβor not himself.
Out of fear of the demon, Hull kept his composure
"Yes, Lord Hull."
The two of them said together, and immediately pushed Erlie away and stepped into another position.
The space that came up was very spacious, but it was larger than the royal court, and the exquisitely decorated reception room had a place for three people to find a place to stay. From the staircase, there is a garden that extends out of the house.
In other words, this reception room is a lavishly decorated wine hall on one side and a natural and tranquil sky garden on the other.
But now, except for the patrols, there are not many people active, and Komak has no plans to have a banquet recently, so the desertion here is normal.
Hull walked through the garden to the other end, where there were rooms and stairs that led to no one.
"It's weird... It stands to reason that Lord Hull should be able to teach us a thorough ......"
As soon as the other party disappeared in front of his eyes, Konar immediately talked to Franny, who was in a cold sweat. However, looking at her slightly trembling hands, she also knew that it was not easy for him to deal with just now.
ββ¦β¦ I'm sorry, Nal..."
"Huh? What are you sorry for, Fran..."
Frankie bowed and apologized to Konar, but Knar didn't want to accept it, because she wasn't to blame.
ββ¦ It's okay... Thankfully, Lord Hull is in a good mood today... Or maybe the two of us are lucky..."
And the real reason, Erlie, looked at the room over there, as if she could see something. Or rather, she just saw what she thought.
"There aren't many people..."
She suddenly discovered that using the bandages and gaps in her left eye, she was able to do some reconnaissance without exposing herself.
For example, Erlie's gap stood at the end of the room, looking at the sides around her, this time at the corner of two corridors, and after opening the two gaps, there were two corridors that were perfectly aligned: the intricate arches supported the ceiling of the room, the full-height potted plants were arranged at the same distance according to strict regulations, and the carpet was untidy, as if it had once been one.
There are few patrols here, but not far from the lookout, there are quite a few archers and sentries guarding the area.
It's just that they can't see clearly.
When he was about to go inside, Komak walked out, but Hel was nowhere to be seen, and he must have gone further inside.
Through the bandages, Elle couldn't see anything, but she always felt that his mental state was not very good, as if he hadn't slept all night, and he was a little tired.
"So...... Where is the so-called ancient writing? β
At the moment, she hadn't found what Komak wanted to decipher, and there wasn't much left for her of Sandora's relics, especially culture.
What he could master, that is, the ancient characters that Brigadier General Tarun had given him, and the books he collected were mostly fairy tales and some simple stories.
In this case, if there were any mysteries or profound contents, Ellie would not be able to recognize them with certainty.
She looked at the two maids with a look of incomprehension, waiting for Komak to come into the hall.
For a man with handy legs, that was not much distance, and it wasn't long before Komak stepped out of the corner and appeared in the sight of the three of them.
"Uncle!!"
Before the maid could say anything, Ellie put her hands in the shape of trumpets and shouted at Komak over there.
ββ¦β¦ I guess I heard you right, Flang..."
ββ¦β¦ No. But let's leave that alone. β
Collecting their expressions, they quickly pushed Erlie over to the other side. At the same time, the two of them tried to maintain a humble servant posture and tried not to make eye contact with their own king.
Although the king himself has a good personality, he is also a king, and it is impossible for a servant to have an equal mentality, coupled with the king's particularly conspicuous eyeballs now, and the bloodshot caused by tiredness, this king seems to have come out of the cemetery.
It's really weird not to scare people.
"How did you sleep yesterday? Ellie? β
Seeing the other party's flat and happy expression, the uneasiness in Komak's heart was suppressed a little. Thanks to the illusion of resembling his own daughter, he was a little relieved about the future meeting.
"Excellent! More comfortable than the previous bed! β
"Really? That's good, I thought you weren't used to the gas ...... here."
Just as he was about to say something, he noticed the two servants behind him, and gave another order.
"You two go down first, and then tidy up the room and wait for Elle to get back."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The two men saluted respectfully and left, leaving only Erri and Cormac.
ββ¦ Well, Ellie.
You must know these words..."
After taking the two servants away, Komak took out a rubbed piece of paper from his bosom, on which were written ancient characters.
Knowing what he was going to do, Erlie took the paper and read it aloud.
"'History is at peace.'" , it seems to say so. β
Hearing this answer, Komak nodded roughly, this is one of the few ancient written materials in the possession of the World Government, and it is classified as top secret.
The content of this sentence is only a dry translation, and it does not have any careful explanation.
The purpose of this paper was to test it, and at least Cormack thought that Ellie's credibility as an interpreter was still very high.
