Chapter 14: The Little Maw

In the early morning, the sun rises like the sun, and last night's battle destroyed a third of the town's buildings, and those destroyed buildings are even more dilapidated in the sunlight.

The townsfolk scrambled through the rubble to see if there were any buried survivors, and weepers mourned the relatives who had lost their lives the previous night.

George's life has not been affected, the tavern has not been affected by last night's fighting, and the only difference for George this morning may be that there is a pink-haired girl in the room. He woke up from his little bed as usual, looked at the two sleeping girls on the big bed, and then went to wash up.

George, who went downstairs, saw that there was only one waiter dozing off at the bar in the bar, and at this time of the day, the iron-like Rab must be meticulously cleaning.

George walked over and asked the waiter to find out that Rab had gone to the town to help after waking up in the middle of the night.

"He's really a warm-hearted guy, so let's wait for him to come back."

He was going to separate from the sermons, and there was no point in staying any longer. This planet is full of strangeness and novelty to him, since he is here, let's take a look around, anyway, he can't go back to the original world, and now his time is his own, he can do whatever he wants.

The next target, George, plans to take Millie to Raven City, the capital of the Fogin Empire.

Starting from here, George estimated that it would take two or three months to stop and go, and he planned to go overland to enjoy the scenery and humanity along the way. Now that he is free of the constraints of the system, he has a lot of time to squander.

George casually ate something in the tavern, then found a chaise longue and lay down, he took out the lossless music player, put on his headphones, and pressed the brim of his hat to his face.

music!

……

I don't know how long he lay down, George felt someone pat him twice, he took off his hat, took off his headphones, and opened his eyes to see that it was Millie and her pink-haired friend.

"Millie, you little lazy worm just woke up, have you eaten with your good friend?" George asked.

George is still very happy that Millie can make friends, which proves that Millie's heart has been opened, so that she can become a normal girl, and she is not afraid that Millie will only stick to him all day long.

Millie smiled and replied, "Just eaten," and she took Mona's hand and continued, "This is the Mona I told you about before." ”

"Hello, Mona." George waved his hand in greeting.

"Thank you, thanks to Mr. George for coming last night, otherwise Millie and I would ......" Mona was interrupted by George before she could finish speaking.

"You're welcome, who made you Millie's friend." George waved his hand to show that he didn't care, and then continued: "Millie, you can go upstairs and pack your things when you have time, let's leave today, it's no point to stay here." ”

"Ah~ I'll leave today." Millie reluctantly glanced at Mona, the two of them had been playing together a lot during this time, Millie had finally made her first friend, but now she was leaving here.

"Well, let's leave today, I bought the carriage in the backyard, we don't have to walk anymore this time."

"Oh, then I'll go up and pack my things." Millie took Mona's hand and walked upstairs with a somewhat sullen look, during which Mona looked back at George a few times with an unnatural expression.

It was close to noon, George and Millie had packed their things, and while they were eating lunch at the bar table, Mona said that she had gone back to her house to check on the situation, and her family seemed to live in the destroyed area.

And Rab, who had been busy helping out in the town, also returned to the tavern covered in dust.

Rab saw George eating, so he walked over to George and sat down and said with a smile: "Thanks to you yesterday, otherwise the whole town might have been destroyed, you are so powerful, I am not sure to defeat that kind of monster." ”

"That's nothing, I'm just trying to save Millie and her friends, by the way, what happened to the mayor of the town with a man-eating lizard at home?"

"It's been locked up by John's gang, and a lot of bones have been found in the backyard of his house, but they are all animals, and now everyone in the town says that the mayor's son ate their children, but the mayor denies it, and now the whole town is shouting for the mayor to be executed."

Taking a sip of the water on George's table, Rab continued: "John and I both believe that Mayor Mare is not lying, but it is useless, it was the Mayor of Mare and his son who risked their lives to save the town three years ago, and it is estimated that his son's demonization is also related to that battle. Alas...... John had gotten a clue from the mayor about his daughter's disappearance, and was sure to be on his way to find her. ”

A waiter walked up to Rab, who was sighing, and handed him an envelope.

Rab glanced at the signature of the envelope, and suddenly looked excited, he opened the envelope with shaking hands, but as he looked at the open letter, George saw disappointment and sadness in his eyes, and it was hard to believe that a person as simple as Rab would also have sentimental times.

After Raab finished reading the letter, George said, "I'm going to leave the town and go somewhere else, and I won't be able to drink and play cards with you guy in the future." ”

George didn't ask Rab what was on the letter, why he was sad after reading it, he thought that everyone has his secrets, and if others don't tell them, you don't need to break the casserole and ask the end.

Rab rubbed his eyes and said, "Then I'll go to the back kitchen and bring barrels of ale and some bacon to your carriage as a temporary gift." ”

"I'll give you a gift too." George faked his way through the parcel of his space before taking out an unopened box of playing cards and handing it to Rab.

Rab took the playing card, looked at it, hesitated, and said, "You can't summon something like yesterday." ”

"No, it's just a 'normal' playing card, I'll go pack up and get out of the carriage, I'll see you later. With that, George got up and left.

Rab took out the envelope and looked at it, then at George's departing back, and said quietly, "Perhaps, it's time for me to leave." ”

……

"Millie, have you packed up?" George pushed the door in, he thought it was just Millie, but he didn't expect Mona to be here.

"It's all done." Millie looked at Mona as if encouragingly.

Mona hesitated and opened her mouth: "Mr. George, you ...... Can I go with you and Millie! After saying that, she looked at George with a look of hope.

"Did your family agree? I'm not a children's shelter. George was puzzled by Mona's sudden remark.

"Family......" Mona muttered.

Mona lowered her head, and suddenly she fell to her knees, tears flowed out and dripped on the ground, she raised her tearful face and looked into George's eyes and said, "I...... I'm already homeless, please let Mona follow you, Mona wants to learn from you, as long as you can follow the adult, the adult can let Mona do anything! ”

George picked up Mona and said, "Study? George didn't know what she wanted to learn, this was the first time he had met someone who wanted to learn from him, and he hesitated for a moment before saying, "You can think about it, the places I'm going to are very dangerous." ”

"Mona is not afraid."

"Can I tell you to do anything? Hey, hey, hey! George deliberately smirked and looked at Mona, who was raining in the pear blossoms.

Mona nodded firmly and said, "Yes, as long as you can follow the adult." ”

"Don't regret it, I'm not going to pay you."

"No regrets."

"Alright, you'll be my groom when we're leaving."

Mona was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears and smiled: "Thank you, sir!" ”

"Don't call me sir, it sounds weird, just call me George." After speaking, George stretched out a hand and said, "Come, officially acquainted, my name is George Charoff, what about you?" My beautiful little groom. ”

"Mona Cyrus." Mona wiped the tears from her face, squeezed a smile out of her face, and then reached out and shook George's big hand slightly.

"I'm coming too."

Millie also placed her little hand on the hand held by the two.
