"She was very weak, feed her some food. ”

The priest had been casting the spell for half an hour, and by the time he stopped, he was already sweating profusely.

Viscount Benn hurriedly stepped forward to help the priest sit down on the chair next to him to rest, and asked the servant to bring him water and a towel to wipe his sweat. Alan thanked the priest before coming to the girl to observe her injuries. Although the black color near the girl's wound did not completely dissipate, the color was much lighter, and only obvious traces of poisoning could be seen near the arrow wound.

"My mana is limited, and I can't get rid of the toxins from the wound immediately, but it's fine, and I can wake up tomorrow, and when the time comes, I can continue to apply herbs, and the injury will heal quickly. ”

The pastor rested for a few more moments before he stood up and took his leave. The Viscounts and Alan graciously sent him out of the door, and finally before leaving, the priest added. To Allen's relief, the pastor was only responsible for the treatment during the whole process, and he didn't even ask the cause of the injury, otherwise Alan was really worried that he would be asked about some flaws.

"During the Sigg civil strife, thanks to these papal priests, they brought good news to the people affected by the war. ”

The Viscountess said as she watched the carriage carrying the priest drift away. Alan didn't answer, but he retorted in his heart: You didn't see it when the people of the Holy See killed innocent civilians, otherwise you wouldn't have said that.

When the three returned, the viscountess and the maid fed the maid some batter, and although the maiden did not wake up, she could already swallow instinctively.

"You're hungry too, let's eat something first!"

Viscount Benn looked at Alan's emaciated appearance, and let him to the table, and let the servant bring some food for Alan.

Alan hadn't eaten for more than two days, and for the first time he felt so hungry that he almost drank a bowl of cereal in one gulp and ate two loaves of bread with meat sauce before his hunger subsided slightly.

"Tonight, you're staying in this room, and your sister lives next door. ”

The Viscountess arranged the maiden's quarters first, and when Alan was full, the Viscount took him to the guest room.

"Your Excellency, I don't know how to express my gratitude for all that you have done for our brother and sister. ”

Before the Viscount left, Alan gave him a serious thank-you.

"No need to be so polite, according to my wife, everyone is a child of the God of Light, and God of Light has always taught that people should help and support each other. If there is anything needed in the evening, just go to the first floor, where there is a servant on duty and he will help you. Of course you can also come to me directly, I live upstairs. ”

"Do you have any wine? I want to drink a little. ”

Alan was really a bit of a request.

"I've got a good mule. ”

"I love rum. ”

"The rum is home-brewed and tastes average. ”

"It doesn't matter. ”

"Okay, I'll ask the servant to bring it to you. ”

After Viscount Benn left, the servant quickly brought a jug of wine, and Alan took the wine and went into the room, took off his robe, which had been scratched by the thorns, and changed into a new dress that the servant had prepared for him, and then came to the maiden's room.

In the light of the candles hanging on the wall, the girl's pale face became a little bloody, and her breathing became heavy, just as the priest had said before leaving, and her poisonous wounds were no longer serious.

"They really look like they sleep on!"

Alan leaned against the wall, drinking wine and looking at the sleeping girl on the bed, he clearly knew that it was not his lover in front of him, but he didn't want to leave at this moment.

"I wonder what happened to Steven, whether they are still waiting for them at the post station, or if they have already made their way north to Triumph City as planned. ”

Alan stared at the girl for a moment, and then shifted his mind to Steven and the others. However, he is not particularly worried about a few people, they have not revealed their identities behind the scenes, and even if they are exposed, with their current strength, if the Holy See does not send a regular army to encircle and suppress them, it will be difficult to pose a real threat to them. When he had sent the maiden home according to the old man's deathbed wish, he could go after them, go to Triumph City to fulfill the agreement with the dragon and return Graces's body to his family, and then go back to his home in the hills of Togo to meet his father, and perhaps all this would be over.

Alan sat on the floor, drinking and making plans for the next step, and soon the drunkenness set in, and he fell asleep with his back against the wall. I slept for a long time, and in my dream I seemed to return to Yuewan Village, and saw the dead villagers of Yuewan Village, who warmly welcomed his return and thanked him for avenging himself, and under the peach forest he saw his wife who had been longing for him for several years, and they hugged each other and cried, and sat together under the peach tree and said their parting thoughts.

When he woke up the next day, Eren was still nostalgic for the feeling in his dreams, which was so real that he could still smell the scent of his wife. Although he has woken up, he still closes his eyes and is unwilling to open them, as if he will leave himself as soon as he opens the beauty of his dream, and he has to face this cruel and realistic world again.

After a while, Alan reluctantly opened his eyes, and he was still in the bedroom last night, he vaguely remembered that he had fallen asleep on the floor against the wall last night, but now he was lying on the carpet, and he was covered with a thin quilt. He sat up and curled his palms, the flask no longer in his hand.

"Are you awake?"

A woman's voice came from behind her, and Alan turned her head to see the girl sitting at the dresser by the window, quietly combing her long hair while looking at herself.

"Oh yes. ”

Alan was a little uncomfortable by the girl's eyes that were as transparent as spring water, and quickly stood up,

"Here is breakfast from Viscount Benn, and I see that you are sleeping soundly, and I have not woken you up, so I let the servant put it here. ”

The girl pointed to the table with her comb on the side.

"Oh, thanks. ”

Alan saw bread, milk, and some soy products on the table, and his own half-jug of wine was placed there. She walked over to the table, picked up two slices of bread and stuffed them into her mouth, and drank some more milk.

"How's the wound on your shoulder?"

The girl was wearing a nightgown, and Alan couldn't see her wounds, but her face was much better than before, and she should be recovering well.

"The toxin has been basically eliminated, and there is no major problem, but it can't be moved yet, but it will heal soon. ”

The girl pointed to her hanging arm and said.

"Yesterday's..."

"You don't need to say, I already know that Nande is dead, and you rescued me and brought me here for medical treatment. ”

Speaking of the death of the old man in Nande, the girl stopped combing her hair, and a look of amazement appeared on her fair face, which was not the sadness of losing the old man, but only a regret that her friend was far away.
