Chapter Twenty-Three: The Young Man Goes Out
Julius and Romeona had completely different reactions after the competition. Julius sat directly on the ground, and the wooden sword in his hand was thrown aside, panting and looking very embarrassed. During the sparring, although he tried his best to defend himself, all parts of his body were still hit solidly by Luo Miona with the wooden broadsword. Romeona didn't show mercy to his men, for he could feel the pain of each blow on his muscles, and if it wasn't just wood, he would probably have been bruised—though he was still in pain all over his body, and he felt very uncomfortable.
However, the pain was only for a while, and it did not last long, and both Julius and Romeona quickly adjusted their state. Romeo went back to the store and went upstairs to change, leaving Julius where she was. As for Lulunaka and Pasta, they remained here to watch Julius, and they looked a little uncomfortable at him and walked away.
In the end, it was only Lulunaka and Pasta left. Lulunaka jumped off the mobile workshop, picked up the wooden sword on the ground, and walked over to Pasta, "How do you feel?" Lulunaka asked, "Isn't it very different from before?"
Pasta stroked his beard and looked thoughtful, "If I had met these two children, I would probably have died there—I wouldn't have been able to handle three people as strong as me anyway." ”
Lulunaka smiled and patted Pasta on the chest, "You're too modest, uncle, since they can be different from then, you've changed, right?
Pasta didn't answer again, just shook her head. "They're always going to overtake me, and I'm just going to get older and get caught up and left behind. ”
"You're so sad to say, uncle. Lulunaka said, "Who doesn't grow old?"
Pasta looked at Lulunaka, "For example, you?"
Lulunaka pointed to herself, "I, of course I'm getting old, uncle, but you can't see it." ”
Lulunaka nudged Pasta and let him into the store, "The morning's entertainment is over, uncle, please show me the store quickly, I'm not busy alone." ”
"So far, not many people have come to this small shop. Pasta said.
"But everyone who comes is either rich or rich. Lulunaka's words left Pasta speechless, "I prefer quality to quantity, what do you think?"
Pasta was silent for a few moments before speaking, "In that case, I want your little shop to be profitable first, not to make ends meet, niece." ”
"Don't let vulgar money blind you, uncle. Lulunaka laughed, "What I've gained is not something that can be measured by a few gold coins. ”
Pasta didn't say anything more, went back to the shop, and sat down where he was accustomed. Lulunaka's harvest, he knew what it meant, but there were probably some things he didn't know. But he was not a very curious person, and since surviving in that illusion and becoming different, his emotions have never fluctuated violently, and he has become like he doesn't care about everything anymore.
By the time Lulunaka returned to the store, Julius had already taken care of herself and looked like she was going out. "Where are you going, docks or rat roads?" asked Lulunaka.
Julius probably didn't expect to be caught by Lulunaka, so he could only touch his head, stop and say to Julius, "I want to go to Mr. Barrick's side and see Lei." ”
Lulunaka had no intention of stopping him at all, and waved at him, "Of course, you can go wherever you want, just to see a child, you can go without worry." But don't make trouble for anyone, for I don't know what to do when Mr. Barrick complains to me. ”
Julius nodded, turned and left the store. Julius hadn't touched a weapon since he broke his iron sword underground, but he hadn't gone to dangerous places these days, and lived like this empty-handed.
Not long after Julius left, Romeo came downstairs as well. Seeing that she had changed into a thick outfit, she knew that she was also going to go out. Seeing Lulunaka, she said to Lulunaka, "I'm going out for a while." ”
"Of course, of course. Luluna nodded repeatedly, "Of course the young man has to go out, but don't be as lifeless as the old man." ”
Romeoona frowned, with an expression that she didn't understand why Lulunaka said such things, she wasn't there just now, so naturally she didn't hear the conversation between Lulunaka and Pasta, so she couldn't talk about it. However, Lulunaka's strange behavior has been a lot, and she doesn't continue to think about it. She had a very important thing to do today—or she was in the King's Castle, and that was actually one thing that was very important.
"Won't it be hot if you dress like that, Romiona?" Lulunaka gave her a big look and said to her, "I don't think you need that much warm clothing, do you? ”
Luo Miona touched the clothes on her body, thick enough to be used as armor, "Mr. Apo told me that this will protect you from some sharp weapons, and you can also hide yourself. ”
Lulunaka shook her head and spread her hands with a helpless look, "People who can hurt you don't care about the layers of clothes on your body at all, and people who can't hurt you, even if you're naked, can't hurt you with anything." ”
Speaking of her naked body, Romeona's face turned a little red, "This is inappropriate behavior. ”
Lulunaka sighed, "It's becoming a lot like Apo's old ......" She said this very quietly, and Romeona didn't hear it, "Then I'll just make a request, don't be too nervous, okay? Here, Romeona is already a dead man, and whoever sees you will not associate you with that dead man, no matter how much you look like her...... You're not that Romeo anymore. ”
Romeona hesitated for a moment before nodding, "I see." After that, Romeona also left.
Watching Romeona leave, Lulunaka touched her forehead with helplessness on her face, "Alas, she almost has a sign on her that says, 'I'm afraid of being found out and I'm not dead'." In this case, how can people be reassured? ”
