Sitting in a chair, Felik looked around, this was the first time he had come to the head maid's room, and the style was completely different from the luxurious hall, it could be said to be simple to the extreme.

The wooden bed was covered with gray sheets, the quilt was folded into tofu blocks, a glass of water was placed on the bedside table, and there was a stool and a table, which was so clean that nothing was visible except for ink and quill, and a piece of paper that I didn't know what had been written.

"I want to show you something." Ella placed the black tea in her hand in front of Felik.

Taking the tea, Felik waited quietly for the other party to take out what he wanted to show him.

Then, Felik frowned as Ella turned around and gently pulled the bow on her chest, pulling the black and white outfit down to her shoulders.

On the part of Ella's shoulder, there was a very small scar that resembled a burn mark, which was the characteristic of Felik's illness that day.

"And then? What do you want me to do? Obviously sick, but hiding it from Gabriel, as a servant, this is unfaithful. Felik took a sip of his tea and watched as he got dressed again.

Ella turned, smiled bitterly, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"It's not as you think, Lord Gabriel knows I'm sick."

Felik paused as he drank tea, and his eyes turned to the other party.

Ella continued, "It's better that Lord Gabriel disagrees with the suppression plan, and there is part of my reason. ”

I see, it's good luck to find the reason so quickly, Felik thought to himself.

"When did you get infected?"

"Before you came, I was in charge of taking care of the patients, probably at that time."

It's a miracle that he hasn't died after so long, and even the spread is slow.

This is ready-made material, studying Ella's body, maybe you can find the conditions to delay death, Gabriel should know this, but why hide the fact that Ella is sick?

"Why did he refuse the suppression plan for you, as the personal servant of the Seven Gods, you must have a little strength, but I don't think that your strength can be measured on the same scale as the people of the whole city." Felik said unceremoniously.

To this, Ella just nodded in acknowledgement.

"How can my lowly life be compared to the people of the whole city, if I can, I am very willing to be one of the victims."

"But Gabriel won't allow you to die, will he?"

Anyone can figure out what the other party has to say next.

"Gabriel, as a lord, should have the least judgment, he will not be unaware of the seriousness of the situation, but for your sake, he deliberately concealed important clues, and even refused to suppress at the expense of the lives of all the lords, if you use these to extrapolate, I can only draw one conclusion."

Speaking of this, Felik paused: "You guys...... Actually, lovers? ”

Ella was stunned, blinked at a loss, and burst out laughing.

"How can you think that, how can I be a lover with Lord Gabriel, I am but a lowly servant."

"Really? It's weird. Felik nodded thoughtfully: "It's also admirable to protect the forces that you have worked so hard to manage." So? What exactly are you asking me to do? ”

"Now...... Now my lord, he refuses to suppress it, all because of me. So...... So could you please give me a reason to die? ”

Hearing this, Felik raised his head to look at the other party, only to see Ella also staring at him, and in the dim magical light, he could see the two bright lights in her eyes, very determined, and with an unimaginable calm.

It was a moment before Felik asked.

"Why...... Don't die yourself? ”

"As a servant, you should obey the commands of your master, and as you have just said, a servant should be faithful to the master he serves, and I have done the same, and I will always be faithful to Lord Gabriel."

"Humph! Is that really the case? Felik let out a sneer: "You like him? ”

Ella didn't answer directly, but was silent for a while, and then spoke a word to Felik.

"Lord Gabriel...... I want to be a good lord, a ...... who can protect my territory. A benevolent and beloved lord, this is the ideal of adults.

He also kept trying, and all the servants saw it, and everyone felt that one day, Lord Gabriel's ideal would be realized, because it was not a pipe dream, and he was just ...... Just the people who just want to protect their territory. ”

"I don't see him at all that he is such a person, that all the people become the cogs of the equipment, that their territory becomes a country of military industry, that everyone can only live like parts, run like machines, is this his ideal? It's ridiculous. ”

"You don't understand!!" Ella's voice rose sharply, interrupting Felik's words.

Looking at Ella's slightly trembling hands, Felik closed his mouth in amusement.

"Everyone has a side that is not understood...... Isn't it? Ella stared at Felik as if she were forcing Felik to apologize to Gabriel.

Sighing, Felik said lightly: "It's me who is too subjective." ”

"No...... It's human nature. Ella replied.

Polite, gentle, considerate, loyal, knowing proportions, thinking and thinking are all the lords of service, Gabriel is really a good retainer, Felik couldn't help but sigh, the only regret is that she has feelings for that person that she shouldn't have.

It is not a sin to have such thoughts, but if you dare not break the shackles of the world, it becomes torture.

The people of this era are really not open enough, Felik thought to himself.

"I shouldn't be a stumbling block to my master, I say so...... Do you understand? ”

Felik was silent.

Ella's brows furrowed, and she repeated, "You...... Do you understand? ”

"Whew——, I understand." He eventually relented.

"Will you help me, then?"

Felik replied with only one word.

Then Ella laughed.

Felik fully understood this woman's thoughts, she had no fear of death, she was afraid that after her own death, Gabriel would live in self-blame and pain, even if she denied it, but in fact, this woman had already understood the other party's intentions in her heart.

This pair of foolish lovers is a real headache.

His choice will not change, this catastrophe, there is no gentle solution, only brutal repression.

Want me to go to your territory with Belina?

Dream on.

After dinner, when everyone gathered again to discuss the plague, Felik rejected Maisie's proposal in front of everyone.

"I'm sorry Miss Maisie, but after careful consideration, I decided not to go."

"Why?!" Maisie showed a surprised expression: "I know it's dangerous, but ...... It might be possible to find a cure for the strange disease, and only Belina could do it. ”

Seeing Maisie's reaction, for a moment, Felik felt that something was wrong, and a strong sense of disobedience hovered in his heart, but for a while he couldn't say what was wrong.

Just as he was about to ponder it, Gabriel stepped in.

"I also think it's worth trying."

What a needle, you want to save Ella, even if it's a frying pan, you want us to jump, Felik is heartbroken.

However, Felik was also ready to refuse: "It is very dangerous to go there, after all, the number of patients there is far from comparable to here, if you want to develop an antidote based on the patient's physical condition, I think it is safer to bring the patient over, Belina can't have an accident, otherwise there is no point." ”

"The key to solving the plague may also lie in the source of the disease, such as the historical Lich Girl, the root cause of the corpse poison she caused is her magic equipment, this time it may also be man-made, finding the cause of the disease will be of great help to solve the problem." Maisie also gave an example to prove that she was right.

Before you know it, you're caught up in a debate.

Wenger was neutral, while Gabriel and Maisie seemed to be united, trying to get Felik to agree.

"No! Absolutely not!! Since the emperor has said that it can be suppressed, then the most direct way should be taken, and it is useless to embrace the kindness of a woman! I'm not going to put my members and myself in danger, you guys are going to die for this! ”

Felik waved his hands, tore his face, and ended the topic bluntly.

At this time, Belina, who had not spoken, suddenly pulled Felik and dragged him around the corner.

"Belina, what are you going to do?"

"Commander, let me go!" Belina spoke.

This Belina, when did she become so compassionate and compassionate, didn't she even want her life in order to save people?

Felik took a deep breath, stared at the other party seriously, and then stretched out his hand, grabbed the other party's ear, and said in a resolute tone: "No! ”

"Ah~~" Belina blushed, she gasped softly, and stared at Felik with a pair of misty watery eyes: "Tuan...... Captain, we're all heretics now, what if ...... If we can solve this incident, then we are heroes, and in any case, your prestige will definitely increase greatly, and this is a perfect opportunity to break free from the papal clamp. ”

It turned out to be for me.

Felik snorted coldly, let go of the other party's ears, turned around and said coldly: "This is an irrelevant problem, it can be solved sooner or later, now you just need to protect yourself, and we will leave here and go back to Kas Bay in a few days." ”

"Commander......"

"It's not negotiable, I've already decided."

After saying that, Felik turned and walked to his room, walking past Ella, and he stopped for a moment.

Back in the room, Felik took the paper out of the drawer, drew a quill, and began to write on the paper.

He's making a plan to make a way for Ella to die without Gabriel blackening.

Ella doesn't want to drag Gabriel down, but if she kills herself, it will inevitably make Gabriel fall into self-blame and unwillingness, and Ella's death will definitely cause Gabriel a knot, which is inevitable, all he can do is to create a knot and let Gabriel untie it himself.

It was the best he could come up with.

"Create an accident and have someone kill Ella, and then have Gabriel kill the murderer."

Felik had a general idea, his expression gloomy and his eyes flashing with a cold light.

As the minutes ticked by, he kept writing something on the paper, and then crossed it out, revising and perfecting the conspiracy, until finally, when the quills drew the last rest, he let out a sigh of relief and put down the pen.

The plan fully meets the needs and can be implemented flawlessly, even facilitating repression.

Felik stared at the paper, frowned, and looked at it for a long, long time......

The next day.

Knock knock!

The knock on the door came to mind.

Belina got up from the bed, expertly removed the clothes from the hanger and put them on her body, and hurried to open the door.

It's been like this for three days, and sometimes you have to rush to the scene immediately if something happens, so Belina sleeps very lightly, but fortunately, she is an elf, and her physical fitness is not better than ordinary people, and her ability to resist fatigue is superior.

When I opened the door, I saw Felik.

By this time Felik had already dressed for the long journey, and stood at the door, waiting for her impatiently.

Belina understood at a glance that the head of the regiment was dressed like this, and he was going back to Kas Bay.

"Why are you still stunned? Hurry up and get ready, let's go to Maisie's territory, that ...... What's that place called? Oh yes, Kuschux. ”

When Belina heard this, her chaotic brain instantly sobered up, and she grabbed Felik's sleeve and was very excited: "Commander, you have decided?!" ”

Felik chuckled and said, "What nonsense? The carriages are waiting outside, come out. ”

Walking out of the castle with Belina, the people outside have been waiting for a long time, and Ella is among them.

When Felik stepped into the carriage, he looked back and saw Ella also looking this way, with some confusion and doubt in his eyes.

Then he got into the carriage, and Belina followed.

"Commander, why did you suddenly decide to go? Do you think it's still important to build prestige? ”

Felik shook his head: "No, I just hate tragedy. ”

Belina was puzzled, "What do you mean?" ”

"A sad story is acceptable, but it would be sad if there was a deeper tragedy behind the story. Of course, the main reason is that I don't like to be a bad guy, or the kind of bad guy who doesn't show his face. ”

Felik's words made Belina wonder, but there should be no need to understand.

The carriage galloped, and there was the sound of the blacksmith in the shop around him, but it soon died down, for the carriage had left the country of the military industry and was speeding on the open meadow, towards Kusiux.

In the carriage, there was silence for a long time, because of boredom Belina dozed off her head.

As a gentleman, Belina and other beauties were sleeping, and should have quietly sent a reliable shoulder or a warm chest, but Felik hooked the other party's calf with his foot, which frightened Belina to wake up directly, her hair was thrown around, and she looked around in confusion.

"Horse ...... The carriage overturned? ”

"Idiot, the carriage didn't overturn." Felik looked at Belina with a little disgust: "Let me ask you, although you say that you want to help me erase the name of heresy, but you want to go to Kusiux, you actually want to save those mages, right?" ”

Belina lowered her head and didn't answer immediately, and after thinking for a long time, she replied: "Saving the patient is just by the way." ”

That's a stupid reason, Felik thought, but that's not bad.
