Chapter 236: A Strange Fate
Walter is lying on the bed, the wounds on her body have been carefully treated, she is sleeping deeply, just like the sleeping beauty in the fairy tale, but the sleeping beauty is often a princess, and the motive for waking up the princess is often because of pity for the jade, and Walter is asleep, there is no desire to wake up at all, not that her appearance is not beautiful enough, on the contrary, Walter's appearance is not only beautiful, but also has more perseverance that those princesses do not have, or persistence?
The soft morning sun outside the small window shone in and hit her face, her thick and long eyelashes shimmered with the dust in the air, and her fair and beautiful face made her look like a sleeping angel.
And the reason why people can't bear to wake up is the frowning eyebrows.
It seems that because she is burdened with too many responsibilities and missions, it makes people feel that sleeping is a better destination for her, and she has been asleep, at least she no longer has to worry about the persecution of responsibilities and missions.
"What a pitiful girl." Ruth looked at the sleeping Walter and sighed.
Ruth stretched out her hand, and her index finger lightly pressed on Walter's eyebrows, as if she wanted to smooth out the shallow wrinkles, obviously she looked so feminine, but she had a temperament that did not belong to a woman.
"Huh!" Walter made a little noise.
"Oh, are you awake?"
Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and it seemed that it took a lot of effort to open her eyes.
"Filipino...... Lick? ”
"Not the person you want to meet, I'm sorry, I'm Ruth." Ruth said softly.
The blurred vision was finally clear, Walter rolled his eyes, slowly looked at the surrounding arrangement, and the room was very warm, and the girl in front of her, who was younger than her, seemed to be taking care of her.
"Thank you, did you save me?"
"Yes, you can call me Aunt Ruth, don't look at me like this, I'm fifty years old." Ruth explained her age in advance so that nothing embarrassing would happen.
Walter was still very surprised when she heard that the sick girl in front of her, who was only eighteen or nineteen years old, was actually fifty years old, but after a short period of surprise, she immediately accepted this reality, after all, it should not be easy to save her from the hands of the Holy See magicians.
But...... Why should the other person save himself?
"Aunt Ruth, why did you save me?" Walter slowly got up with the help of the other party, leaning on the bed, although his body was very weak, he could feel that he had regained his vitality, and now he was rapidly improving: "You should know, I am the one." In order to prevent the other party from knowing, she did not say the word heresy.
"Heresy?"
"Uh...... Right. ”
It seems that the other party knows.
"Heresy is fine, doesn't it?" Ruth replied nonchalantly.
If the person she met at that time was prejudiced against heresy, or if she was not strong enough to save her, then she would probably die in Fort Quito.
Thinking that he could survive, Walter was very lucky.
"You're such a unique person."
Hearing this, Ruth let out a few chuckles, as if she was in a good mood.
"If I am disgusted with heresy, am I not disgusted with myself? I now have three forbidden techniques for transformation, and according to the regulations of the Holy See, I should be a heretic among heretics, and if I add all the things I have done before, it can be regarded as a great evil. ”
There are actually three forbidden techniques, I have long heard that someone uses forbidden techniques on the human body, and it is almost difficult for the recipient to survive, this is just one forbidden technique, it is unimaginable that three forbidden techniques can be integrated into one.
"Aunt Ruth, who did this to you?" Walter asked solemnly.
"Don't get me wrong, it's me." Ruth replied with a smile, even a little smug.
"Yourself?! Ahh Walter grinned in pain as he tugged at the wound in surprise.
"Is your appearance also because of forbidden arts?"
"Well, my ageless appearance is also due to it, but don't envy it, although it's really good that I won't be old, but my body is very weak, and I won't live long."
When she said this, Ruth seemed very calm, obviously talking about her life and death, but she said as if she didn't care about her own business at all.
"Oh yes, forget about business, your body is interesting, can you let me study it? Don't worry, it's just an observation, and you won't do anything excessive. ”
"Please use this body, for me this body is not something to be cherished, and I have survived until now because of the help of others."
"Is it Felik?"
"Huh?" Walter looked surprised: "Do you know Felik?" ”
"No, it's just that you called his name when you woke up just now, I heard the name, he should be a man, right?" Ruth squinted her eyes and secretly watched Walter's reaction, like a cunning fox.
Walter remembered Felik's lazy appearance in his mind, and couldn't help but laugh: "Yes, it's a very interesting guy." ”
"You...... Like him? ”
"Yes." Walter replied without thinking, and immediately realized what he had said, and explained with a panicked face: "No, no, no, just gratitude, gratitude and appreciation." ”
"Really? Then tell me about him, it's really boring to be in seclusion for too long and no one to talk to. ”
"That fellow, there's nothing to say, lazy and mean, sometimes nasty, in any case he can't find any good at all, but he is very reliable when it matters most, the kind of reliability that can make people's lives dependent, and he has a couple of very interesting companions, Afra is a little girl of only eight or nine years old, but she can already help in battle; Belina is an elven mage, who may seem a little sluggish, but when it comes to battle, she is always amazed at her intelligence; And Odelia, that scarecrow, the swordsman's swordsman's swordsmanship is really unbelievable......"
It was a good sound, but when she heard the name Odelia, the smile on her face instantly stiffened, and then retracted.
"Wait a minute, did you mention Odelia?"
"Well, he's a scarecrow with strong swordsmanship, and for some reason likes to use a rusty sword." Walter noticed that Ruth's expression was a little strange, and quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, Odelia is not a strange creature, although she is a scarecrow, she seems to have been a human before, and she is still a peerless beauty." ”
Okay, it's not wrong, it's her daughter.
The swordsmanship is superb, the name is the same, and the rusty sword is used, if you really want to talk about the difference, the only difference is the body, if it is really Odelia, what happened to her?
However, listening to what Walter said, Odelia also seems to have found a very reliable partner, which can be more or less reassuring.
"Aunt Ruth, your face is not very good, what's wrong?"
"No, I was just thinking that your encounter with us was really a strange fate."
