Chapter 8: Restoration (II)
It was dusk the next day when he woke up again, and Alan barely sat up from his bed, and saw Chester holding the hilt of his sword, and was wrapping a huge broadsword in spun cloth.
"Father, whose sword is that?"
The look of surprise on Chester's face flickered, and it seemed that Alan had no memory of what had happened in the mines, and perhaps it was a good thing for him. Chester was still worried just now, how could Alan explain all this to him after he woke up, and now he can finally relax, after all, his mother's wish is for him to live like a normal human, if Alan knows his complicated life experience, and the cruel future he will face, how can he live a normal life?
Chester did not stop the movement of his hand, and his deep voice was clear:
"This is a very valuable sword deposited with me by a friend. My friend also told me that no one should touch me except me. So I swear by the name of the warrior, it's my promise to my friend, I know you've always wanted to have your own sword, but..."
"This won't work, right?"
Alan said knowingly.
"Father, although I don't know why your friend has such a strange rule, since it is an agreement, I promise you that I will never touch this sword, and this is also my promise to you!"
Chester looked at his son comfortingly, and the sword was just wrapped around at this time. Immediately, he placed the wrapped sword in the corner. This place is also a sign of a father's trust in his children.
"I remember going to the mine yesterday to practice, and then I saw the colorful light. How did I get back? ”
Alan touched his head and asked suspiciously,
"The mine collapsed, and when I arrived, you passed out at the entrance of the cave, probably knocked unconscious, so I brought you back."
Chester is not good at lying, but word for word cannot be refuted. Although Alan was still confused, he looked at his father's expression and stopped asking.
"I dreamed of my mother..."
Alan lowered his head.
"I'm Martha, too, and she's a good woman..."
Chester touched Allen's head, his wide and thick palm warmed, soothing Allen's longing heart.
