Chapter 125: Trust
Sigma's exclamation was naturally exchanged for the side glances of the three girls, and the girl named Ellie was surprised for a moment, and said with some sincerity: "Excuse me, is there anything wrong with my name?" ”
“…… Nothing, I read a story about a stepfather and his daughter when I was a kid about a deep love affair between a stepfather, one of whom was named Ellie. Sigma recalled the anime called "Ghost Father" that he had watched in his previous life, especially several classic plot scenes, and couldn't help but nod his head again and again, sighing, "It's a good story, a good story......
When Ellie heard this, the expression on her face darkened: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, although I have the same name as the happy heroine in the story, I don't have her happy experience......"
In fact, whether that Ellie is happy or not is really debatable, especially the personal line of the game version...... Sigma opened her mouth, but gave up on the idea of explaining it - just kidding, if it was explained, Gilly might have liked the story, and Athena and Ellie's three views would have been shocked......
Thinking of this, Sigma couldn't help but burst into tears in his heart, you see, other people's travelers, no matter what type of world they cross to, the knowledge of the previous life usually comes in handy, advanced financial knowledge and marketing concepts, scientific knowledge used to make glass soap, gunpowder, cannons, condoms, martial arts knowledge, martial arts knowledge that is very violent when you hear it, and the most unfortunate is also pretending to be a belly full of poems, songs, novels, and dramas to pretend-force prestige to be a writer, in short, there is always a corresponding profession, there is always a suitable world, and then look at Uncle Sigma himself, The greatest use of his knowledge reserves from his previous life is that it only gives him quite professional spitting skills and the ability to tell yellow jokes in various postures, oh, and like now, pinch the stalks that no one can understand among the natives......
It's really lonely like snow, Sigma who can neither figure out nor be a copyist is simply a shame for all the traversers, but there is no way, who made him just an ordinary person in his previous life, the most pretending thing he can do is to put forward some modern ideas to the world of Nolan who has embarked on another path of civilization with the vision and insight of modern people in the era of information explosion, and then the heroes of Nolan will expand this little inspiration into imaginary achievements and results, of course, he can only mention the idea, really let him personally command, most of them will mess up- However, the think tanks of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, which is responsible for executing Sigma's inspiration, don't know the roots of the president's fiancé, they only think that Sigma actually understands these things in addition to his extremely high spell talent, listening to their sincere praise, and then looking at the efficiency and achievements of this group of smart people, Sigma is very proud on the surface, but quite hurt in private.
When the traverser was feeling sorry for herself, Ellie told her father in the comfort and encouragement of the yellow paladin - she originally had a happy family, but due to some changes, her mother died, and her father completely degraded under a series of blows, becoming a rotten person who drank and gambled all day long, and the last right thing her father did so far was to send Ellie to the church in her hometown for foster care, and after sending her daughter away, began a decadent career of drunkenness, forgetting death, gambling, drinking, and obediently waiting for death.
When Ellie grew up, she still lived in the small church in her hometown, she took care of two flower beds, sold the carefully tended flowers to the aristocratic housekeepers who came down to buy them, in addition to helping in the village food store, and worked hard when the church was busy. Every once in a while, she would bring some ingredients and money to her father's house in town to clean the room and take care of his drunken father, though the money she brought would turn into casino chips and bad liquor.
This kind of life lasted for a long time, and I don't know if it was because she took good care of her or her father's life was too hard, relying on the occasional idle job as an idle worker for others and the money won in the casino, this rotten gambler has survived all the way to the present. But maybe the horse stumbled, maybe the man really didn't want to live, but the accident was born - he owed a huge amount of money in the casino, was forced by the debt collectors to block the door of the house, and when Ellie came to visit her father on time, she saw the scene of his father being beaten by the thugs.
Ellie is a good girl who is delicate and clean, and the thinking of "if you don't have money, you will use Xi'er to pay off the debt" is popular wherever it is placed, and the thugs who forced the debt naturally hit the idea on Ellie. Fortunately, this rotten gambler finally has the appearance of a father, holding a knife to protect his daughter, and every time Ellie comes to the slums of the town, she is escorted by the stick boys in the village who love her, and the strength of the two sides is not much different, and finally there is no fight - but the debt is repaid, after all, it is justified.
Although her father said in a bad attitude that you don't have to worry about this matter and let Ellie get out of here, the kind-hearted girl struggled all night, even if she took out all her savings, she was far from being able to repay the arrears of up to ten gold coins, but she couldn't watch her father being beaten to death or sold into slavery, so it was natural that she extended a hand to the Holy See for help.
The old priest of the village church also watched Ellie's father grow up, and the good girl pleaded hard, and finally made up his mind. The good cleric applied to the church in the town for special operation funds to pay off Ellie's father's debts, and in exchange, Ellie's father had to promise to stay away from gambling and move back to the village to become a volunteer for the church and the village at a relatively low salary. Originally, the story would have ended perfectly here, showing the love of the Holy See and the people, as well as the spirit of charity and mutual assistance upheld by the clergy, but unfortunately, this is not the case.
After being honest for about half a year, and initially gaining the trust of the villagers and the priest, Ari's father was cute again, and after not knowing who was prodding, he rolled up the funds used in the village to buy earth and stone fences, and went to gamble again.
After learning a little about the situation, Ellie went back to the village, where she said that she had to stay in the village, and if her father couldn't find him, she would give an explanation to the villagers and priests. Looking at the girl's strong but weak back, Sigma said lightly: "Athena, we are going to hand over this task to you, not only to catch her father, but also to deal with this matter, tell me, what are you going to do?" ”
Angel is as soft as he is when he sticks to Sigma, but when he mentions others, his attitude is different, and the angel snorted coldly: "That kind of person is not only willing to fall, but also treacherous, betraying his daughter's love and the trust of others, and deserves to be punished as he deserves, and he will be slashed ......with a sword after being caught."
Before she could finish speaking, Sigma slashed at her with a knife: "Unqualified!" ”
The necromancer didn't look at Athena, who looked aggrieved, and said softly, "Pay attention to the details." When Ellie saw us, although she was a little reserved, she didn't have much fear, why is an ordinary peasant girl not afraid of us who have power? Because she thinks that we are mercenaries and she is not afraid of mercenaries. ”
Athena was thoughtful.
The second detail, from what Ellie did and how she just looked, shows that she still loves her father dearly, and in this case, the problem arises. She thought we could arrest her father and knew that we would hand him over to the church, but there was only sadness and loss in her eyes, but there was no concern in her eyes - it was a trust in the church, trusting that the clergy would not harm her father even if they wanted to punish him......"
The necromancer patted Athena on the head: "Think about it with your heart, figure out where this trust comes from, figure out how you should respond to this trust as a mercenary and a user of the Holy Light, and then give your answer." ”
"Now, let's go and arrest this Ellie daddy first......"
