Chapter 99, The Temptation of the Devil
readx; Looking at the back of Ken turning away, Ian pouted strangely, turned back to Gergill and asked, "Who is that, are you working under him now?" β
"Well, it's the chef of the team. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Gergill briefly told Ian about the situation of the convoy, but he didn't want to say too much about this matter, and quickly changed the subject, "Speaking of which, cousin, why are you in Sandshield City?" Didn't you say that you went to the Legion? β
"I can't stay in the legion......" Ian told Gergill about being kicked back by the non-commissioned officer, and told his cousin about his experience and experience along the way, this guy was just thrown out by the soldiers in the barracks, and there was a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, all of which were complained about as complaints.
Gergil had no idea of the struggle at the national level, and he didn't know what kind of consciousness the bandits had to be pretending to be an enemy team, he just acted as a quiet listener and let his cousin vent as if they had met once a year.
Ian didn't expect Gergill to say anything or give him any advice, he just wanted to find someone to share his secret.
"It's great that you know so many things, cousin, maybe you'll be a great scout in the future." Gegil smiled indiscriminately.
"Hahaha, I'm not that good, that's what Mr. Erwin told me......" Ian was modest in his words, but the expression on his face still showed that he was very useful.
The two had already made it from the streets to the end, and Gergill realized that it was a little late, and hurriedly said goodbye to Ian, who had to go back to help Ken prepare the food for lunch.
The two exchanged their current addresses, and looking at the back of Gergill leaving in a hurry, Ian touched his head and said to himself, "This kid feels like he's changed a lot, by the way, I forgot to ask him how Mia and Rory's kid are doing." β
Gergill didn't know that his changes had caught Ian's attention, or rather, that he didn't know what had happened to him, and the lack of memory made it difficult for him to recognize who he used to be, but since following the team, he could feel that his life was getting better day by day.
There was plenty of food every day, no more cold and loneliness at night, and most importantly, seeing her every day, and sometimes talking happily.
Of course, if it weren't for this screaming voice in my heart, everything would be perfect.
"It's fun...... Very interesting...... This is a deliberate attempt to provoke war...... Someone is helping us...... Aren't you interested in Ggil. β
Strange screams echoed in Gegil's head, sounding like a monkey talking to a human.
"Osmond, I don't know what you're talking about, I'm not interested in war."
Gergil said in his heart, and ran into the hotel where the convoy was staying.
Francis, the owner of the convoy, could not tolerate the poor food provided by the hotel, so every day Ken and Gergill had to go out to buy materials to prepare their own food, and the owner of the inn did not dare to say a word in front of more than thirty men in armor.
Gergill hurried up to the second floor of the hotel, and when he passed by Ashilea's room, he happened to see Ashilea, Francis, and Captain Blue talking about something.
It was not something that Gergil could hear, he just glanced at Esilia's delicate and beautiful face, and then quickly ran to the last room in the hallway, and began to hand out Ken as he was preparing lunch.
Except for the chance encounter with his cousin Ian, today is a very ordinary day for Gergil, but Osmond, who has been quiet except for "hunting", has been very excited for some reason today, chattering as if he was suddenly possessed by Ian.
"Gergil...... You like that girl a lot, don't you...... What a beautiful and lovely woman...... silently watched her from afar...... Don't be silly. Osmond's words suddenly became fluent, "Do you think this is a love poem of the Praiser?" A male protagonist who substitutes himself for pathos? Stupid and naΓ―ve...... Admit it! I can feel the impulse lurking in you, you want to push her down on the bed, you want to tear her dress, you violate her, you possess her, you are a hypocrite......"
"Say no more!" Gegil screamed angrily, and the knife in his hand slammed into the cutting board, almost slashing his fingers.
"Gergil? What's wrong? Next to him, Ken turned his head to look at Gergil.
Gegil's face was a little pale, he reached out and rubbed his face, took a deep breath and smiled: "It's okay, I'm not in a good mood." β
Ken thought that Gergill had run into something about his cousin, "Aren't you guys talking?" He said silently in his heart, but he didn't ask very interestingly.
"Are you annoyed and angry when I say it?" Osmond had no intention of letting Gergil go.
Gegil's mood is both conflicted and painful, Osmond has brought him unimaginable power, but this guy is a devil hiding in his heart, all his thoughts will be spied on by him, wantonly ridiculed and exposed,
He admits that Osmond was right, he liked Miss Eicilia, and who didn't like such a beautiful girl?
But his heart is dirty and shameless, every time he sees Ecilia's delicate body curves, towering breasts, and snow-white skin, there is always an indescribable impulse in his heart, wanting to possess her, wanting to violate her!
"This is the curse, your curse on Mia, Rory's curse on you, the curse on you by the innocent murderers......" Osmond guided him step by step, like a devil, leading Gegill step by step to the slope that slid into the abyss.
"Your identity is different from her, the difference is too great, what are you to her? A cook, no, not even a cook, you are just a stranger to her a little familiar, pleasant conversation? Don't you think it's been a long time since you've been like this? Yes, she's not interested in you anymore, and when the convoy arrives at its destination, you'll never see her again in your life. β
Gegill was breaking open a piece of garlic and crushing it directly with too much force, the spicy smell filling the air and moistening his eyes.
"If you don't want to see something like that happen, maybe you should take action." Osmond's voice became muffled, as if the pious priest of the church was praying.
"What should I do?" Gergil asked as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
"It's very simple, Gegil, tell Ecilia everything your cousin told you, and tell her alone......"
"No...... No way. Gergill remembers Ian telling him not to say these words before leaving, "I can't turn around and break the promise." β
"This is your only chance, only by doing so will you be able to gain Eicilia's attention, you will be able to gain her favor, make her think you are useful, everyone is the same, people who are valuable to you will always be around."
Gergil's eyes were blank and his face glazed over, and he was in a state of confusion from which he could not extricate himself.
The food was delicious at noon today, but everyone seemed a little sullen, as had been the case since that failed nighttime ambush.
Gergil, in particular, had now tasted like wax and was eating every bite, and from time to time his eyes stole at Esilia, who was sitting at the other end of the long dining table.
Fortunately, no one cared about Gergil's mood, and no one noticed his unusual behavior, and everyone ate the food silently and went their own way.
After eating lunch, Ecilia was about to go back to her room to rest, but in the hallway she met Gergil, who seemed to be waiting.
"Miss Ai, Miss Ecilia, I have something very important to talk to you about, ...... alone Two people. Gegil stammered a little, although he had talked to Ecilia many times, but most of the time it was Ecilia who was asking, and Gegil replied one or two times, so now he mustered up the courage to take the initiative to talk to her, and his dark cheeks immediately turned a little red indistinctly.
It was strange that Eicilia had already gotten all the answers to her questions about the living conditions of the commoners through Gegil, and the two had rarely spoken since then. It's not that Esilia looks down on this civilian with her own identity, but that Gegil is very bored, and she can't beat her with a few sticks, and she has to work hard to find a topic every time, so she gradually doesn't pay attention to this dark and thin boy.
I didn't expect him to have something important to talk to him.
"Oh? That...... Come with me to your room. Esilia said with a slight smile, she couldn't guess that Gegil would have something important to look for her. But she was happy to hear what the teenager had to say.
The two entered the room, but it wasn't long before Gergill ran out and called Captain Blue and Francis in.
The four of them gathered in this small room, and Ecilia looked at Blue and Francis with a serious face.
"Sith, and Captain Blue, I have a very important matter that I would like to ask you for help with, and to a large extent, it has to do with this military conflict between North Sunderland and Lorenzo."
The two of them rarely saw Ecilia show such a serious expression, and listening to her words turned out to be related to the military conflict, they couldn't help but sit up straight, and at the same time wondered why this guy Gergill was here.
Francis, in particular, almost showed his displeasure on his face when he found out that Eicilia was in the same room as the commoner.
"Gegil, tell you two what you just told me." Aicilia commanded Gegil.
