Chapter 179: Charles
The breeze drifted in along the open window, bringing up the neatly placed books on the table and constantly opening and closing, and in the corner of the desk, a few pots of silver grass with good growth stretched their bodies under the soothing of the breeze, facing the window, energetically welcoming the first rays of the morning sunshine.
These little grasses were originally all placed in the study, but once Alan thought that there were too many small grasses in the study, so he asked the servant to move a few pots in the bedroom, I don't know if it was the effect of purifying oxygen and purifying the air, and after waking up, Alan happened to see a few pots of moonlight grass on the table in front of the window, and then felt that the air in the bedroom was so clear.
"I'm here, am I back?"
Lying motionless on the bed, Alan rolled his eyes and muttered to himself as he looked at the bright yellow ceiling above with ancient patterns and simple frescoed mosaics.
It was a familiar scene, and every time he woke up from his sleep, he would see the seemingly ornate but not at all elaborate roof of the castle bedroom, which he had not liked before, but now he looked at it so pleasing to the eye.
"Actually, it's pretty too..."
I don't know what I endured, Alan found that his whole body seemed to be aching, but this did not affect his normal movements.
Getting up from the bed with a little effort, and then putting on a neatly arranged cloak on the bedside table, Alan walked barefoot on the soft red carpet.
With a melancholy look, he walked to the window, stroked the silver grass on the table, and then looked up.
A vast sea comes into view.
Standing in the tall castle, at a glance, the seagulls fly in the sky, making a pleasant call, the blue sea is blue, the sea and the sky are the same color, the dark blue coastline seems to be close at hand, the sun is shining, shining on the scattered fishing boats on the sea, that is the bay fishermen are going out to fish.
The soothing autumn breeze drifted in through the open window and blew on the collar of Allen's chest, which flipped open and beat against his chest a little cooler.
He looked down because of this, and he was just casually skimming it, but he found that his chest, which was usually white, was now glowing with dark golden spots!
This dark gold color is not very pure, like sesame seeds mixed with flour, the white is golden and not very conspicuous.
But apparently the color didn't appear for nothing, and since waking up, Alan has been wondering why he suddenly appeared in his bedroom.
He can clearly recall the memories after changing into a bird, not to mention the side effects of the obvious loss of IQ, he remembers that he was in a coma in the end, under normal circumstances, he would fall down and fall to pieces, why is it intact now?
"Did someone save me?"
Frowning, Alan looked at his skin again, and the dark golden spots all over his place made him look dazed.
But he didn't think about it for long, Alan gave up thinking about this matter, there are a lot of things he can't understand recently, and he has gradually become accustomed to ignoring them, but these things obviously can't be just settled.
"How did I get back? Someone in the castle should know, just ask them later. ”
"This dark gold looks weird, I guess I should see a doctor?
"What is that underworld? And the blue lake, is it a real lake or something else? Maybe I should look up the history of this castle, maybe I'll find something. ”
"Did Kyle and the people in the Chamber of Secrets fall, and what happened?"
"Kyle...."
Alan, who looked in a trance, looked out the window at the sea, muttering in his mouth, but suddenly heard a sound of footsteps in his ears, so he looked back, the footsteps gradually approached, and the last maid pushed the door in.
The maid was struggling to open the door with a basin of water down, and she didn't notice Alan's gaze, but when she arrived at the bed, she suddenly found that there was no one on the bed, which made her subconsciously scream.
"The little one is still so confused. ”
The cry was crisp and pleasant, and Alan in front of the window showed a smile because of this, and she was playing with her heart, and she was about to use a spell to trick her, but the maid was obviously not confused to the point of being blind, and found Alan in a blink of an eye, so she shouted in surprise: "Young master, you are awake!"
"No, I'm not awake, I'm still asleep!"
Alan wrapped in a cloak and said seriously, causing the maid Nina to blink blankly.
"But, young master, you're obviously awake, otherwise who will talk to me?"
"yes, I've woken up..."
Alan seemed to be puzzled, and then under the maid's increasingly confused expression, he suddenly straightened his face and said, "Then why do you have to ask more questions Nina?"
It seemed that he was accusing the maid harshly and unreasonably, but the little maid, who was very familiar with the master's personality, made a grimace and stuck out her tongue, obviously not taking Allen's embarrassment seriously, and before Allen responded, she ran away: "Young Master, you wait, I'll call Master Charles, and he said that if you wake up, you will notify him as soon as possible." ”
"By the way, are you hungry? I'll bring you food when I'm done calling Master Charles!" the maid's voice faded away, and Alan shook his head.
"Reckless. ”
The little maid's temperament has always been like this, so Alan doesn't care about it, but she thinks that if she is a maid in another family, she is so reckless, and it is estimated that she will be punished every once in a while.
But on second thought, it seems that the maid was not like this at first....
"So I'm used to it?"
"Shouldn't I be harsh?"
While pondering this question, he put on the clothes on the bedside table over and over again, and when Alan fastened the last button, a hurried footstep appeared outside the door.
"The poor soundproofing of this room is also good at some times. ”
As he thought about it, a tall blonde man pushed the door open.
Tall, handsome, with clear water chestnut facial features full of surprise at this time, short blond hair is a little messy, the tall man looks like he is in a hurry, there are still traces of cheese in his mouth, and he even subconsciously holds half a piece of bread in his hand, obviously eating breakfast before.
"Big brother!"
Alan smiled, opened his arms, and gave the visitor a big hug.
"You're finally awake!"
The person who came laughed and hugged Alan hard, then let go, looked at Allen's whole body with a happy expression, and said with a grin: "Originally, I thought that if you didn't wake up, you would invite Mr. Assatom here to see you, but now I don't need to." ”
Assatom is a well-known scholar in the south of the stars, and he is also a very powerful doctor, and his status as a scholar brings him great fame, but it is obviously not as popular as his medical skills, and the lords of the south like to see him the most, and they don't think much of his academic knowledge.
"Mr. Assatom is a busy man, and if you want to invite him, you may not be able to invite him. ”
Alan responded with a smile, and before Charles could respond, he asked, "How long have I been unconscious?"
"Three days. ”
Charles replied, "Not counting that night, you have been in a coma for three days, and it is now the fourth morning."
"So long?"
Alan felt a little incredible. It's unlikely that you'll be in a coma for so long just by being knocked unconscious, right?
Thinking of the golden spots on his body again, Alan frowned because of this.
What happened?
Without thinking about it, Charles' presence made Alan stop thinking about it for a while.
"I was shocked when my father told me that you had an accident, and then I didn't prepare anything for a long time and hurried here, otherwise I can show you my craftsmanship, and I have made great progress!"
"Originally, I saw that the mage was too grinding, and I wanted to blow up that place, but after careful investigation, I found that the place was not suitable for forced demolition at all, otherwise your castle would have to collapse, and it is estimated that we would all have to be buried alive, so in the end, I endured it until now, fortunately nothing happened to you... This castle can no longer be inhabited, and I feel that the abyss below is dangerous, and if there is a slight change, this place is in danger of collapsing. ”
"The bay doesn't seem like a big place, there are a lot of things, you kid can really toss, all kinds of strange things, I haven't gotten used to it for days. ”
The two came to the table in front of the window and sat down, and after talking for a while, Charles suddenly remembered something and patted his forehead: "By the way, you wait, I'll go get something!"
"What?"
Eren opened his mouth to ask, but Charles just waved his hand and hurried away. Then, not long after, he quickly reversed again, holding a quaint diary in his hand.
"Oh, it's written for you, everything I've done during this time has been recorded, and there are some legal loopholes and additional suggestions found, you've been missing for a long time, and you don't know a lot of things, so it's definitely a lot more convenient to have this. ”
"Thank you, big brother, you are always so careful!"
Grinning at Charles, Alan was not polite, took the diary and opened it.
"Merchants unite to disperse earnings and reduce the share of commercial taxes?"
"Gangsters and some mercenaries to control the port?"
"A group of people acting together to trick the city hall into receiving a bounty?"
“......”
"These cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, they all popped up again without looking at them for a while. ”
Alan was speechless about some of the things recorded above, but he was not surprised, it is human nature to chase profits, and at the same time, finding shortcuts is also something that everyone enjoys, some people have successfully found shortcuts, and some people have been beaten back on the road to finding shortcuts, obviously, these people in the diary have tasted the lesson.
These things are not attractive to him now, and his hands gradually turn down, and some other things gradually come into view.
The management diary recorded in the language of the stars made him wonder, and finally, he raised his head.
"So strict? When did you get on par with old Tyron?"
Apparently, the diary records Charles' general actions during this time, which is why Alan asked.
"I'm not the lord here, so why be kind?" Charles said disapprehantly, and then he laughed embarrassedly again.
"And I think it would be good for you if I did that, and the people in the Gulf would be more welcoming to you with my comparison. ”
“......”
