Chapter 13: Ferral
My name is Philar Willikos, the son of an Earl, and I will be the heir to the title of Count of Willikos.
Growing up, both my grandparents and my parents praised me for being smart, and in fact I did, and then I found that I didn't like childish people and childish behavior, and my mother said that I was rebellious early. Because of this, the children are afraid to play with me, and I don't want to play with them if they want to play with me, so it becomes the fact that I have no friends.
My father was a great man, because others said that he was a strong man, a very powerful golden swordsman in the kingdom, so everyone respected him very much. I asked my dad why he wanted to be stronger, and he said it was because he wanted to protect something. I asked what I wanted to protect, and he said it was my mother and me. He also touched my head and said that Feral would also meet people who wanted to protect him in the future. When I heard my father's words, I suddenly wanted to be as strong as my father, because if that person really appeared, I wouldn't be able to protect her if I wasn't strong, not to mention, when I heard my father say that he wanted to protect me and my mother, my heart was very, very happy. I think when I tell someone that I want to protect her, she will feel the same way I do now, so I have to be strong.
Melanza was my first friend, a real friend, and the first person I wanted to protect. I remember the first time we met was in the city where my grandfather lived. At the Pruss branch, I first noticed her as she entered, because I wondered who would put a hat on his head.
When she came in, she looked around, and I could clearly feel that she saw me, even if she didn't look at each other, even if there was a veil in between, but she still felt it.
From the communication between the adults, I learned that her name is Mei Lansha, and I remember reading it in the book, which means black flower. Then, Melanza spoke, her voice was tender, soft, and nice, and she was supposed to be a very lovely person. I suddenly had an idea in my heart, and this is the first time I have such thoughts about a person, I want to be friends with her. However, I didn't know what to do, I was depressed, and my head was thinking about what to do, they were here to sell the magic core, and it would be over soon, and my clever brain, which according to my father had inherited from my mother, had to come up with a solution in the fastest time.
I didn't think of a way, but I saw a surprising scene. God, I've never seen such an interesting person, she actually kissed her crazy with a magic gold card, has she never seen money or something, does she know that everyone here is looking at her. Under the threat of her family, she finally let go of the magic gold card, feeling that she was reluctant, I suddenly laughed, and it was really a very cute person.
However, it seems that I am not the only one who laughs, and I am a little uncomfortable, so if you want to laugh at me alone, what are you making a fuss.
My mother was a little surprised by my reaction, it seemed that I was usually very cold about everything, and it was the first time I laughed at something.
My mother was apologizing to the adults of the Melanza family, and I could tell that she was angry, or rather, depressed.
After this time we separated, I thought we wouldn't see each other again, but I didn't expect that a month later, we would meet again.
Embroidery, Josia family, these two words have been heard too much lately. Everyone said that embroidery was a magical skill, and the moonlight unicorn of the Lord of Will was a miracle. I have seen that moonlight unicorn, I remember that my mother and I were invited to the city lord's mansion here the day after I came here, my grandfather said that he wanted to see the moonlight unicorn again, in my mother and my curiosity, the city lord of Will reluctantly took it out, and then, I thought I was dreaming, because I saw a creature that can only be seen in a dream, a unicorn, a legendary existence, so beautiful. Everyone present was fascinated, including the grandfather who had already seen it. After putting away the painting, the Lord of Will told us that this was a miracle skill.
It turns out that the moonlight unicorn was embroidered by the same embroidery, Josia's house? Seems to have heard it somewhere.
Then one day, my mother pulled me and said that I wanted to go out, and the reason was to go to see the daughter's workshop, and I heard that it was opened by Josia's family, and it was embroidery, and all of them were women. I really wanted to tell my mother that since they were all women, I wouldn't go as a man. But my mother was so excited that she didn't give me a chance to say anything, and carried me into the carriage and went straight to her daughter's house.
After seeing the daughter's workshop, I was stunned, this place is so magical, and so beautiful, when I went inside to visit, I found that the whole house is different, how was it built? That architect built it? I want to take that person home and build a house like this.
It was a good idea, but unfortunately it was thrown away by me after seeing the lady who came out to receive us. This lady I told you is the mother of the little girl named Melanza, and this is where her family runs? Is that also where she is?
Sure enough, it didn't take long for me to see someone, she was being rubbed in the arms of a lady, she felt like she couldn't breathe, her face was so red, from the beginning of her teeth and claws, to the helplessness at the end, just like a cat, so cute. Then I found myself smiling again, and my mother looked at me strangely again, depressed, isn't it that I don't usually laugh much, but now I smile happily, isn't it strange?
After seeing the person standing in front of me, I finally understood why her name was Melanza, and sure enough, it was a black flower, black hair and black eyes, it was really a strange color.
The adults said let's play with each other, and I was happy to be with the women inside. She seemed a little reluctant, though. Complaining in my heart, Young Master Ben is willing to play some childish games with you, you should be grateful to Dade, and you are still reluctant, really.
Although she was reluctant, she listened to her mother and played with me. However, can you go slower, why run straight ahead, lady, is she really a nobleman? It's no different from a monkey. I pumped and stood still not knowing whether to follow or walk slowly. As a result, Melantha helped me make a decision, and she ran back, holding my hand and running with her. Her hands were warm, soft, and small, and her mood suddenly became very good, and I ran away in a daze.
What happened next gave me a new understanding of Melansa, she is not only cute, but also very smart, at least she knows a lot about flowers. Flowers? Are you sure you're not playing with mud, it turns out that you want to treat me as a coolie, how can this young master do such a non-flashy thing. And what's that, don't think I don't know that you mean that my appearance will become as beautiful as a flower, how can you use such a sissy word to describe Young Master Ben. Well, if you can give a reasonable explanation, Master Ben will forgive you.
The language of flowers? It's the first time I've heard of it, and it seems to be a novelty.
You ask me what kind of flowers I like, and the whole garden looks at it, and it's, it's red, palm-like flowers, I don't know what's wrong, and when I see her, I think of Mei Lansha's hand, it's all so small.
It turns out that the name of this flower is anthurium, and the flower language is enthusiastic, enthusiastic, and hot-blooded. Also, why is your expression so weird when you talk about Xiaoqiang, but Young Master Ben likes the word strong, and as for justice, I haven't read knight novels for many years. Well, seeing that you have such a high opinion of Anthurium, Young Master Ben has decided to like it in the future. As for planting flowers, it's okay to do it once in a while, you can't fool me when you say you'll give me the anthurium.
Sure enough, the things I got from my labor were the most precious, and I was so tired of planting flowers, why did Mei Lansha not sweat a drop, holding a red palm in her hand, and ignoring her mother's weird eyes. Melansha, I'm not giggling, I'm just in a good mood, don't look at me like an idiot.
When I got home, my mother told me about what had happened at her daughter's house today, and she said that she admired the people of Josia's family, especially Melanza's mother. As I asked, I finally understood why the words Josia felt familiar. Dana Josiah was a celebrity in Sayya, three years pregnant, gave birth to a child with black hair and black eyes and a demon-eating body, and was finally kicked out of the house by Earl Darren, although it was seven years ago, but until now there are occasional people who talk about it, I have heard of it. That's the kid. I heard that there was an accident, and Melansha's face became ugly. The mother sighed and said that she didn't know what would happen to the child.
I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, how could Earl Darren not like her with such a small and cute appearance. Moreover, without a father, I heard that Ruoxia's family is not wealthy, and she has been treated as a monster since she was a child, so why can Mei Lansha still smile so happily? A voice slowly came out of my heart, I wanted to protect her, I wanted to protect her.
Later, as long as my mother went to the daughter's shop, I would go with her, and I still wanted to play with Melansha, even if I was used as a coolie, it didn't matter, and I was really happy when I was with her. Offday? Can't see Melanza anymore? Then I'll go to her house.
But Mei Lansha is shy, and actually shut me out, nay, for the sake of you being very happy to see Young Master Ben, I will forgive you this time.
Sure enough, it's coolie again, cake? What is that? Delicious?! Well, if you're happy, I'll do it with you. The cake was delicious, sweet and fluffy, just like Melanza.
For the next few months, I was with Melansha, and I followed her wherever she went, and I followed her wherever she ran, and in other words, I was even more sure that Melansha was a monkey, and she couldn't survive a day, completely like a spinning top, constantly spinning and turning. But while sometimes she does things that seem weird, the results are surprisingly good. Mother said that Mei Lansha is a genius who is smarter than me, in the past, if anyone dared to say that he was smarter than me, Master Ben would definitely look at him with his nose, but if it was Mei Lansha, I reluctantly admitted that she was indeed very smart and knew a lot more than me, I wouldn't be able to, and I would, and she didn't seem to have a problem with me.
Why does a small person need to know so much? I asked my mother this question, and she said that because Melantha was a sensible child, she wanted to be strong and protect the Josia family.
When I got this answer, I felt even more that I was very naïve before, and there was a stronger voice in my heart saying, protect her, protect her.
I'm leaving today, I'm still sad, I don't want to be separated from Melanza, and the moment I saw Melanza come to see me off, tears came down. It's a shame, I never cried, my mother said, I didn't cry again except for a few months when I was born. But now I feel so uncomfortable. There are a lot of things I want to say to Melansha, but I don't know what to say when the words come to my lips. In the end, I could only throw out what I wanted to say most in my heart: "Melansha, I will protect you." "When I grow up, when I become strong, I will protect you.
Melantha just touched my head and said wait until I stopped crying my nose, I don't like to cry in the first place, and today is just an exception. It's really going to be separated, Melansha, you must wait for me to become a strong man.
I told my mother that I wanted to protect Melanza, and she said I was just a child. There was a hint in my mother's eyes that I couldn't understand, but I can assure you that Melanza had the same look when she heard me say it. I am a child, but I will grow up and become a strong person who is respected like my father. When the time comes, Melansa, I will protect you.
