readx;? Alan left the Ogu Villa, outside the city gates, said goodbye to Holland's guards, and rode alone to Captain Shelly's house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Shelly's family, like the other mercenaries, lived in the most densely populated southern city of the ancient city, only two streets away from Curry's house, although Alan had not been there, but the specific location was known, so when he went to that street, he asked Shelly's name, and immediately someone told him that he was an old house in the second house on the street.

Alan led the horse to the wooden fence gate, and he already heard the sound of Shelly talking to a teenager in the courtyard from a distance.

"Brother Shelly, I'm Alan, and I'm here to see you. ”

Alan shouted through the wooden fence.

"Alan!?"

Alan shouted twice, and Shelly's surprised voice immediately came from the courtyard, followed by a sound of footsteps, and Ellen had already seen Shelly running through the wooden fence.

"It's great that you're back safe and sound, Alan. ”

Shelly excitedly opened the door and pulled Alan to look at it, as if to see if Eren had been abused in the Elven Forest.

"I'm fine, big brother, did you all go all the way?"

Alan asked when he saw the unconcealable haggard behind Shelly's smile.

"Let's go into the house and say, old woman, there's a guest in the house. Feige, come and meet your Uncle Ellen. ”

Shelly turned his head and shouted, and soon a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy ran out of the corner, looking seven or eight points similar to Shelly, but it was much more delicate, and his body bones were much worse than Shelly, and he looked very thin. The young man was carrying a wooden sword in his hand, sweating profusely, as if he had just practiced swordsmanship in the corner.

"Alan, this is my son Feige, who is fifteen years old. Come here, Feige, this is the Uncle Allen I often refer to you. ”

Shelly pulls Feige over and introduces him to Allen.

"Hello Uncle Ellen, my dad often mentions you to me, saying that you are the greatest magician in the world, a great hero. ”

Feige leaned against Shelly's side, looked at Alan with wide eyes and curiosity, and said timidly, looking like a girl.

"Hello! I'm a magician, but not as good as your dad said. If you want to talk about big heroes, your father's battle against cyclops at the foot of the Congo Mountains is the behavior of big heroes, and I think Feige can also become a great swordsman in the future, a big hero who fights for righteousness. ”

Alan said with a smile.

"Compared to you, what is my little thing?"

Hearing Allen praise himself, Shelly suddenly felt light, and even his old face was emitting a red light, how glorious it was for an intermediate swordsman to fight a cyclops, but his mouth was still modest.

"He can't be a great swordsman, this kid has a body like his mother, his physique is weak, and he doesn't even have one percent of Harvey's talent for practicing swordsmanship, if he can study hard and achieve the same strength as me, I will be thankful." ”

At the mention of his son, Shelly's smug expression immediately disappeared, and he became very depressed, shaking his head and sighing, it was obvious that his son Feiqi's talent for sword training had disappointed him.

"You know in one day that you forced your son to practice swords, he is not that material, and it is useless for you to force him. ”

As soon as the door opened, a petite middle-aged woman stepped out of the room, and just in time to hear Shelly criticizing her son, she immediately opened her mouth to argue.

"If you don't practice swords, can't you be a mercenary, let him go into the mountains to mine?"

Shelly said angrily.

"I heard them say that as long as they are willing to pay, they can now buy a civilian status and find a job in a forge factory, anyway, our current money is enough for him to use for a lifetime. ”

"Relying on your parents all your life, isn't that a waste?"

"What's wrong with relying on your parents? Those nobles and rich people, which one of them doesn't rely on the inheritance left by their ancestors, are they all waste?"

The middle-aged woman was obviously Shelly's wife, and the two of them quarreled over the child.

"Big brother, this is my sister-in-law, right?"

Alan didn't want to see the two of them continue to argue, so he took the initiative to interject and ask.

"Oh, by the way, old woman, let me introduce you, this is the magician Alan that I often mention to you, hurry up and meet you. Alan this is my wife, Gina!"

Shelly hurriedly introduced his wife Gina to Allen.

"It turned out to be Alan, Shelly often mentions you to me, please come in!"

When Gina heard that it was Allen, she was very happy and enthusiastic, and after the two of them met the ceremony, they hurriedly let Allen into the house, poured wine for Allen, and served some dried fruits and snacks.

Although Shelly's house looks quite broken on the outside, the interior decoration is not bad, especially the furniture and supplies, many of which have just been configured, which are much better than the Curry and Bloom houses he has been to before.

"Alan, it's all thanks to you, this mission has made a fortune, enough for us for several lifetimes, and all these utensils in the house have just been purchased. ”

Shelly saw that Alan was looking at his house, and quickly explained that he had been a mercenary all his life, doing the most ordinary tasks, taking the lowest commission, raising his wife and children, and he didn't save any money at all, but this trip with Allen went out, ransacked the Cyclops' lair, and obtained a large number of gold coins and jewels, this unexpected harvest is counted, each of their mission participants can get nearly 10,000 gold coins, with this wealth, even in the ancient city of Aogu, they are considered rich, and their family's life will be bitter because of this, and they will no longer have to live the hard days before。

"Yes, Alan, we still have nothing without you. ”

Gina pulled her son Feige aside and said gratefully.

"No, no, you at least have each other, you have children, and I think that's more important to you than money. ”

Alan shook his head and said gloomily, the words of the Shellies reminded him of Isa, and he also brought her money and wealth, but compared to what he lost, these were worthless, if Isha was to choose, she would definitely prefer to live a life of sewing and mending in her own hut with her two children, standing at the gate of the courtyard at sunset every day and looking at the end of the road, looking forward to her husband Sterling's return from afar.

"Alan, you're right, we old husbands and wives should be satisfied with our current situation, not have extravagant hopes, at least I'm not like the other brothers. If a few of them could hear what you just said, I believe they would not end up like this. ”

Shelly listened to Allen's words, sighed, and his expression became sad.

"Brother Shelly, what do you mean by this, is something happening to a few of them?"

When Alan heard Shelly's words, he suddenly had a sense of foreboding.
