"Hey, why is it so long, I should have enough time to see your mother." Festeria said impatiently as she stood in the doorway, and there stood a smiling Kalia beside her.

"Miss Festeria, you wait a minute, I'll pack up my departure salute first, and it will be all right soon." Harry said, rummaging through the clothes in the closet.

"This young lady, you are so beautiful and moving, like a dazzling flawless pearl in the deep sea." Ivan leaned against the door and said seriously to Kalia beside Festeria in a very handsome posture.

"Thank you for the compliment, I am honored, sir." Kalia pulled her skirt and saluted.

"Haha, it's okay, Miss, you're really beautiful and moving, I'm not lying." Ivan smiled shyly.

"I said, did you dare to talk to me and my maid in front of me." Festeria clenched her fists and said, and then she punched Ivan directly in the stomach, and Ivan collapsed to the ground holding his stomach, screaming like a pig.

"Okay, don't clean up, these changes of clothes, Kalia will be ready, you can rest assured." Festeria said to Harry.

"Hmm." Harry replied with a smirk.

"Well, Miss Festeria, I want to trouble you with one more thing." Harry walked up to her and said.

"What's the matter, you're really in trouble, hurry up." Festeria said.

……………………………………………… Dividing line ......................................................

The morning was still so cool, the sun wasn't as hot as noon, and the cicadas were not yet chirping.

"That's the way it is." Harry said.

"So that's the case, you want to see your friends, and you want to go to the imperial capital for a check-up, but it's really painful, and that woman is really violent." Ivan grinned and covered his stomach and said, Ivan has not recovered from Festria's punch just now, and Ivan still feels that his stomach is still hurting.

"Are you speaking ill of Mistress Festeria, sir?" Kalia smiled and said to Ivan.

"No, no, no, I'm talking about someone else, not Lord Festeria." Ivan explained in a panic.

Harry, Ivan, and Kalia were walking down an alley, but Festeria didn't come along, saying that she was too sleepy to sleep in the carriage, so she didn't go, just let Kalia go with her.

Harry's goal is to confirm whether Fera has come back, Harry has not forgotten Fera, although she was bought, but Harry still feels that Fera will definitely be able to escape, this blind belief is based on Fera's incomparably powerful combat power, anyone who sees it will be like this.

The iconic tree stood in the middle of the broken brick building, and the children in tattered clothes were still playing happily as always, and when they saw Harry and the others all hiding, they peeked at Harry.

Harry tried to stop one of the people he knew, but the man fled quickly, hiding in the broken bricks and rubble, secretly watching Harry and them, and the spacious space became empty.

Why did everyone run away? I'm not one of those bad guys, why are you avoiding me, everyone has played happily together.

But Harry didn't believe in evil, he didn't believe that they would forget him, they had been playing together for so long, how could they say that they didn't know each other, and wanted to go forward and question them, but Ivan grabbed Harry's shoulder and shook his head.

"Why?" Harry asked.

"Don't go, they're not the partners you know anymore, everyone has an invisible barrier with you, you're not the Harry they know anymore, look into their eyes, what do you find?" Ivan said, pointing to them hiding behind the walls.

Fear, disgust, envy, and other complex emotions were fully presented to Harry through their eyes.

Still disbelieving, Harry walked over, and with a hint of luck, walked up to one of the children hiding behind a big tree and asked, "I'm Harry, don't you know me?" I'm Harry, the Strategist. ”

"Get out of here, you scumbag, we don't want to see you! Get out! The little boy with a snot picked up a rock from the ground and threw it in front of Harry.

Harry didn't dodge, but let the stone hit him near his eye, and there was a trail of blood around Harry's eye, and he froze in place, as if he didn't even react to the pain in his body.

"Why, why are you telling me to get out, I obviously didn't do anything." Harry asked eagerly, ignoring the wound.

"See for yourself! What are these, why are you the only one who came back alive, and everyone didn't come back, you must have betrayed everyone, otherwise Boss Feiya and they wouldn't have been arrested, you are really a wolf-hearted thing, everyone is blind. The snotty boy pointed to a few dirt bags under the tree, on which were bouquets of flowers, and the names of Fea, Jason, and Ivan were inscribed on the humble tombstones made of cross wood.

"I didn't, I didn't, I didn't betray them, I just couldn't save them, but I tried." Harry clenched his fists and said, remembering his powerlessness at that time, that he really hadn't betrayed them.

"Okay, you're still quibbling, aren't you, it's okay, we have witnesses." The little boy with the snot was pulled out of the children by a little boy about Harry's age.

"Tell him where you saw something at that time?"

"I, I see, Harry has a good relationship with those bad guys, Harry can wear good clothes, eat better food than us, talk to those bad guys a lot, and be happy every day." The little boy said timidly.

"No, it's not like that, I'm just ......," Harry tried to explain, but the little boy with the snot cut him off.

"Don't say it, we're lowly paupers, we don't deserve to talk to a big man like you, let's get out, it's disgusting." The little boy with snot said sarcastically.

"Get out, get out, get out...", the children all gathered around and threw rocks at Harry.

"That's enough, you little kids, whoever is throwing around, I'll hit whomever I want." Ivan raised his fist in front of Harry and said viciously.

"It's not like that, I'm just—" Harry muttered with a dejected expression.

"This is human nature, it is easy to be deceived by people's words, as long as one person believes, there will be a second person who believes, there is no end, and children at this age are the most easily deceived." Kalia spoke then.

Humanity? Harry looked at himself for a moment, and suddenly realized, yes, the clothes I was wearing were out of place with the surroundings, and everyone subconsciously regarded me as an enemy, I always thought that as long as I saved everyone, I was still small, and in the absence of any explanation, everyone would misunderstand, let alone children of this age, although I saved everyone, but they didn't know, they only remembered my friendly conversations with those people and wearing beautiful clothes and eating delicious food, There must have been some children among these people who saw Ivan and them killing each other, and yes, the root of all the problems converged on me, a comfortable fellow.

Why so many times, everyone has not been caught by human traffickers, but this time; Why is it that Harry is dressed in tattered clothes and eats unpalatable food, while Harry is dressed in nice clothes, eats delicious food, and has a company that laughs and laughs together; Why was he constantly beaten up by the bad guys, but Harry was able to talk and joke with them; Why......

Yes, everyone is misled by what they see, and if I explain, they will believe me.

However, looking at everyone's angry expressions and the stones thrown in their hands, they refused to listen to my explanation at all, and fell into a complete rage.

"Let's go." Harry said this as if he had tried his best, and Harry felt tired, his former friends had all turned into enemies, and no one believed in him.

Harry and the others left the place and headed for Fera's quarters.

Harry was silent and seemed to be depressed all the way, and Kalia simply bandaged the part of Harry's eye that had been hit by the stone, but not in the eye, but near the eye socket.

From the scene he had just seen, Harry was now sure that Fia had not returned, but the idea that maybe she had come back and what would be left behind unconsciously appeared in his heart, and Harry came to the place where Fia lived with such a final thought.

The ruins of the dilapidated buildings, the obvious small tent appeared in front of Harry, the tent was still the same, maintaining Harry's transformed appearance, but there was no one inside.

Just when Harry felt that he was about to be disappointed again, he found a stone on the table and pressed a note, Harry took the stone away, picked it up and looked at it.

"Harry, when you see this note, I'm gone, that proves that you have escaped, as an opponent who has defeated me, you will definitely not be unable to escape, otherwise it will be too inferior, but ah, I still want to say sorry to you, okay, I don't have that much time, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me, live well, be your so-called great magician, your good friend Feia."

Looking at the scribbled handwriting on the note that was crooked like chicken feet, Harry knew that Fia had worked hard to write the words well, although the words were still so ugly, but that heart was still passed on to Harry's heart, thank you, my friend Fia.

"It's still the same, Fia, if you can practice the words a little better, I won't look so hard, but thank you......" Harry said with tears in his eyes as he took the note, choking up, looking very sad, but it didn't seem to be just about crying, it also contained some indescribable meaning.

"Harry—" Ivan looked at the weeping Harry, and then stopped.

Kalia glanced at Ivan and motioned for him to go out, leaving Harry alone in a separate space for him to be quiet.

Ivan nodded and followed Kalia out, leaving Harry alone in the tent crying.

The cry inside was getting louder and louder, as if it was heartbreaking, Harry knew that his mother was dead, Ivan he deliberately made up this lie to deceive himself, Harry had known since the time he observed the room, the little yellow flower that his mother loved the most had died on the windowsill, his mother's favorite was this flower, and he always loved it, and every time his mother looked at this flower, she would have a happy smile on her face, this flower was the most cherished by her mother, and it was impossible to let this flower die like this, unless something happened to her.

At first, Harry just thought that something was wrong with his mother, and he didn't dare to think about it at all, so it could be said to be an escape, but the careful Harry still found a problem, when he rummaged through the closet, his mother's clothes were not touched, and the clothes that he changed were also intact, and what Harry escaped in his heart was hit one by one by the ruthless facts, think about it carefully, why did Ivan make up this white lie, was it to hide something, and what was the purpose of imitating his mother's handwriting on the letter? One blow to break it, after all, it was for me, Ivan was afraid that I wouldn't be able to bear the truth, so he did this, but unfortunately he still showed his feet.

Harry cried loudly here, both the remorse for the death of his mother, and the heartache of being abandoned by his friends, Ivan, Jason, the powerlessness and guilt of their deaths were all released at this moment, and with tears, the heart-rending heartache reminded Harry of his past life, and that deep sense of powerlessness and guilt struck again.

For the first time, Harry wondered what he had learned magic for, so that his mother could heal the sick, so that he had worked hard to learn and protect everyone, but now, his mother is dead, abandoned by his former friends, everything has become meaningless, it is because of my own incompetence that my mother has not been treated, if I had the strength, Ivan and they would not have died, and my mother would have been saved.

But what about me, until now I am still so weak, I still can't defeat anyone, the same is the case in the previous life, I keep saying that I can save others, but I still watch my relatives and important friends die in front of me as always, I'm just a guy who can only talk big, everyone is killed by me, I am too weak, it will contribute to the occurrence of these tragedies, if I can become stronger, become undefeatable, everyone will not die.

"Damn!! What is the use of this power! Even others can't be defeated! Talk about what to protect others! No kidding!! Harry screamed with tears in his eyes, and pulled the dead branch out of his pocket and broke it off, breaking it in half and slamming it to the ground.

"I, I'm just a piece of waste, no one can save me," Harry muttered as he fell to his knees with his head covered and tears streaming down his face.

"Harry, are you alright?" Ivan heard Harry's roar and ran in uneasy, seeing Harry's decadent appearance.

Ivan picked up Harry, who was kneeling on the ground, and wiped away his tears for him, Harry was also at this time, and his decadent eyes also had a hint of light, yes, don't I have friends in front of me who can be protected, I am not alone, everyone also cares about me, how can I keep being decadent, this time I will definitely use my life to protect everyone, and I will never let such a thing happen again, I want to have more powerful power and make up for everyone with the sins I have committed.

Harry held Ivan's hand wiping his tears and felt the incomparably clear warmth in his hand, I will definitely protect everyone, absolutely! Harry's heart was filled with the thought.

"Okay, stop crying, let's go back." Ivan withdrew his hand and said to Harry.

Harry snorted and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his arm, really, he had said that he wanted to cheer up, but he was crying without being angry, it was a shame.

Harry smiled, picked up the broken dead branch on the ground and took it back into his pocket, and the note in his hand was neatly folded and put back into his pocket, at this time Ivan at the door of the tent also stretched out his hand, Harry was stunned for a moment, and also put his hand up, Ivan took Harry's little hand and walked out, showing a smile, Harry too, the two looked at each other, like brothers, the older brother held the younger brother's little hand, and Kalia who followed them also showed a pleased smile.

…………………………………………… Dividing line .........................................................

"Freya, did you bring me the dessert I wanted?" A bewitching black curly-haired woman in a black robe elegantly held a goblet containing a crimson liquid, she sat in a soft fur chair, one hand supported her beautiful pointed chin, and the other hand held the wine glass, her slender fingers grasped the wine glass, Bai Xian's wrist shook slowly, and the crimson liquid in the wine glass also shook, the woman's purple-red seductive pupils stared at the liquid in the wine glass, through the crimson liquid, the eyes seemed to be dyed red, becoming more bewitching and moving, It's hard to take your eyes off it.

"My master, your dessert is here, please use it slowly." A maid dressed in a black and white striped butterfly outfit walked out of the shadows behind her, speaking in an emotionless tone, the maid had long dark green hair, although it was tied up and placed behind her, her incomparably delicate face was still exciting, and her bumpy figure was tied in front of her collar.

She held a whole triangular shape, dotted with a small red cherry, a delicious chocolate cake, respectfully placed in front of the bewitching woman, and then stood quietly behind the woman, but the dark green eyes were blank, like a broken doll, lifeless.

"Oops, hey, this kid is getting more and more interesting, and it seems to be out of my original plan, but, no problem, my original intention will not change." The seductive woman sitting on the soft fur chair said as she looked at the crystal ball in front of her through her wine glass.

The surface of the crystal ball shows scenes of some characters talking, and the surface is faintly fluorescent, like a television set.
