CH.13 The Girl Who Seeks Her Father (Asking for Votes)
A sweet smile bloomed on Amy's face when she saw the words on the paper, and it was the first time she had smiled since she met Anrui.
The atmosphere around me seemed to have become much more harmonious because of this smile.
After turning back into a human, Amy was no longer immune to the Siren's song, so she took out two cotton balls and stuffed them into her ears.
An Rui struck while the iron was hot, and wrote the paper: "I know that you are looking for something here." ”
"Why do you know so much about me?" Amy also responds by writing.
"I'm a soothsayer." Anrui told a lie through the tip of his pen, and it was the best explanation he could think of.
Sha Fei, who was standing next to her, could see it clearly, her thin eyebrows raised slightly, she had suspected that An Rui was proficient in divination before, and now it has finally been confirmed.
"Are you really a soothsayer?" While Amy was writing, a look of doubt appeared on her small face. There are so many soothsayers in this world that you can meet them everywhere. However, there is a limit to what a soothsayer can do, and it is impossible to reach the point of being omniscient. Divination to figure out the name and purpose of a stranger is a bit incredible. This kind of thing is difficult for even a child like Amy to accept.
"I'm really a soothsayer, and if you don't believe me, I can write what you're looking for." Anrui wrote.
"Write and see, what I'm looking for."
"You're looking for your father's bones." Anrui wrote without hesitation.
Amy took a hard breath, opened her small mouth, and covered it with her hand. Judging by her reaction, Anrui clearly got it right.
Anrui looked at the answer he had written, then looked at Amy opposite, and sighed lightly. It would be a little too cruel for such a little girl to go to such a place to find her father's bones.
Amy was shocked for a few moments before she came back to her senses and quickly wrote on the paper, "You're amazing! Soothsayer! You're right, I'm really looking for my father's bones here, but I haven't been able to find them for a long time, so please help me with my divination and tell me the exact location of the bones! ”
"Amy, I just said that I will definitely help you. But before you do that, let's write about your experience in general. This matter should be known to everyone, otherwise everyone will be confused. Anrui wrote.
Amy hesitated, then nodded, and wrote down on the paper, turning her experience into a textual description:
……
My name is Amy, and I was born in the town of Fuyu, the country of the forest. My father's name was Isaacs, and he was a seafarer who worked as a first mate on a merchant ship of the Clover Chamber of Commerce. Three years ago, when I was 10 years old, my father's ship did not arrive at the port on time for some reason, and he has been missing since.
Some say that my father's Sunverse was shipwrecked, and others say that the ship encountered pirates and that all the people on board were killed.
When I heard the news from my mother, I was so sad that I cried many times.
Later, we finally got more accurate information, someone saw the flag of the Sunverse and some wreckage in the sea near the Astrolabe Islands. The Astrolabe Islands are very close to the route of the Sunverse, and it is a group of veteran seafarers who are very credible when they tell the story.
Now my mother and I finally figured out the reason for the disappearance of the Poetry of the Sun, and the ship must have been attacked by a kraken, so it sank.
The sea is very dangerous, and there are often shipwrecks, and I really don't understand why people have to go to the sea for what they want, alas.
Later, my mother and I lived a life of dependence, and although a long time has passed, my mother has not been able to shake off the shadow of my father's death, and often washes her face with tears.
A year after my father's death, my mother probably fell ill with a serious illness due to excessive sadness, and no matter how much she was treated, she couldn't cure it.
I brought one of the druids in town to my house and asked him to help with my mother's medical care. The medicinal soup made by the druids was sometimes more effective than the doctor's medicine.
Unfortunately, even the druid was unable to save his mother's life, and her mother later died of illness and returned to the arms of Mother Earth.
The druid, seeing me alone, took me in, and taught me about the druid. He found that I had a great talent for communicating with nature and borrowing its strengths.
In order to forget about the death of my parents, I put all my mind on my studies, and I make progress every day.
After two years of study, I have mastered a lot of druid skills, and even learned more advanced transformation techniques.
Two years have not made me forget my parents, but have made me miss them more. I would often go to my mother's grave and talk to her, and once I even slept at my mother's grave and lay there all night. I had a lot of dreams that night that my mother held me in her arms.
Not long ago, I had a strong idea to get my father's bones out of the sea and bring them back to the town of Fuyu, the country of the forest, where I would be buried with my mother. This way I can talk to my parents, and the two of them won't be alone when I'm away.
I know that after such a long time, my father's bones have long since decomposed, and it is difficult to identify. But there is a trait in him that will never go away. He had injured his fingers in the early years, missing a little finger, and only nine fingers remained. This feature was enough to help me identify my father's bones.
I knew that Mr. Lu Dao would not agree with my idea, so I sneaked out without him and ventured to this astrolabe archipelago. I had already learned the spell of turning into a Kraken before I came, and when I got here, I turned into a Kraken and dived to the bottom of the sea. The other Krakens treated me like one of their kind, and didn't bother me, and the Kraken's singing was ineffective against me after the transformation.
I began to wander the Astrolabe Islands in the form of a Kraken, and finally found the Sunverse in the mountain of shipwrecks. I was so happy that I immediately got into the boat and searched everywhere for my father's bones, but I couldn't find them. The bones were all ten fingers, and none of them were nine.
The ship we met before was the Poetry of the Sun, and the name of the ship was engraved on the ship, I don't know if you saw it.
I was not reconciled, and expanded the scope of search, no longer limited to the Poetry of the Sun, as long as I saw the ship, I would go in to look for it. Some of the ships were overrun by the Kraken, and they didn't let me in casually, so I had to sneak in, which caused me a lot of trouble.
It took more than two months to search, but I still couldn't find my father's bones.
So I beg you, soothsayer, to help me find out where my father's bones are!
……
After Amy finished writing this long text, she put it in front of Anrui, her reddish eyes revealing a poignant pleading look.
In fact, An Rui knows all these things, but after reading the words written by Amy, he was still very touched.
The girl in front of her was so pitiful that she had lost her parents at a young age and ventured here just to find her father's bones and bring them back to her hometown to be buried with her mother.
Sam Wow, next to "Wow......" burst out crying, and the water splashed down like a broken pearl, crying more sadly than Amy herself. This fat guy is too sensual.
Of the people present, only Sha Fei was unmoved, lazily looking at the paper full of words.
Anrui folded the paper written by Amy a few times, put it in his pocket, and then wrote on the paper: "Amy, I will do you this favor, I will definitely help you find your father, and I want to tell you the good news, your father is not actually dead, he is still alive in this world!" ”
Amy froze, and her whole body froze in place as if petrified. An Rui's words were too impactful for her.
Not only Amy, but even Sophie and Sam, who were standing next to her, were dumbfounded, obviously not expecting such a turn of events. They even became suspicious of this, suspecting that Anrui was lying and coaxing the little girl.
"What I have just said is true, your father is indeed alive, and I swear to the gods of heaven and all the heroic spirits in the temple that if I lie to you, I will be sent to hell and a servant of the devil." An Rui's expression was solemn and he swore to write. He knew in his heart that he was not lying, and that Amy's father was still alive.
"What you said is true?" Amy lifted her pen with a trembling hand and wrote a twisted line on the paper.
"It's true, it's true. You have seen my skills as a soothsayer, and I can help you find your father. Anrui wrote.
"Where is he now?"
"I can't say for now."
"Then how can you help me find him?"
"I have my own way, but it's going to be a long journey, so be prepared. I can't help you find your father all at once, but I can only arrange for you to meet him at the right time. ”
"What happened back then, if he hadn't died, why didn't he go home to me and my mother?" Amy asked inquiringly.
"It's not as simple as you think, there are twists and turns in the middle that you can't imagine, the Poetry of the Sun didn't sink because of the Kraken's attack, but because of other reasons." Anrui shook his head and wrote on the paper.
"Can you tell me more about that?"
"Not for the time being, even if you tell you these hidden truths now, you can't accept them, knowing that these things are not good for you. When you meet your father, I will tell you the truth, and the truth will be in front of you, and you will not be able to believe it. ”
Of course, Amy couldn't just give up like this, and she asked for a long time. But An Rui is very persistent in this regard and insists on refusing to reveal the hidden truth. Amy had no choice but to give up for the time being and asked other questions.
Anrui replied one by one, saying everything he could, and then wrote on a piece of paper: "Amy, will you take my word for it, get on my boat, and let me carry you to your father?" For the record, I will not take you to your father immediately, and I will not find your father before the time comes. Only when the time comes will I be able to help you find your father. Until then, you must stay on my ship and wait for that time to come. ”
Now, Amy still has a choice, after learning the news that her father is still alive, her heart is about to bloom, whether it is true or not, it is impossible to let go of this glimmer of hope.
The little girl nodded heavily.
At this moment, the chime sounded, indicating that Anrui had an extra temporary crew member. As he remembers, Amy is a level 11 druid with good strength and is proficient in a variety of transformation skills.
Amy was able to reach this level at a young age, which shows that her talent is quite high, and she is not much better than Sam, a wizarding genius.
