Chapter 199: Half-Father and Half-Father I
readx;
Avi sat on the balcony of his room, looking out at the sea to the east. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info The boundless sea has only been visited by the legendary captain Hecot and his lieutenant Tre, perhaps they have touched the end of the ocean, and they have also brought back the secret treasures of the sea.
The big-nosed fan tiptoed to Avi's side, and then suddenly pushed Avi's shoulder, so frightened that Avi immediately jumped up from the chair, "What? Do you want to be a sailor?" A person like Uncle 'Sailor', who is ostensibly a sailor, is actually a pirate, but in fact he is no different from a mercenary. As soon as Fan said this, Avi began to worry about Miss Delia's old subordinates again, and wondered if they had really been betrayed by Felisti as Fan guessed by Big Nose. But Avi recalled the look in Felisti's eyes, and the words of the other party when they met her alone, it didn't seem to be lying.
Avi tried his best to control his brain, trying not to think much about the two-color blade mercenary group - now that he was a knight squire of the East Oguna Empire and Sky City, he was no longer a mercenary.
Avi suddenly remembered that the ship about the legendary captain Hecot was also called "Sky", and wondered if the other party had also been here before, and enjoyed the incomparable scenery here. He stood up and continued to look at the boundless ocean to the east. The altitude here is very high, and the room they were living in by Corals was facing east, with a view of the world east of Sky City.
Beneath the kilometer mountain range was a vast uninhabited coast, and it was difficult for Avi and Fan to see what was there. But this white coast stretches for tens of kilometers, and the sky blue sea is sewn together, and there is no obvious division. The oncoming sea breeze blew both Avi and Fan's hair, and it had been a long time since they had enjoyed such a quiet and relaxing time. Almost a year had passed since Avi had escaped from his hometown, and when he entered the room, he heard the butler say to Coral that he must send her brother Saresa hostage to Mallot by the middle of July.
"Hey, didn't you really want to ask Saresa for some money back?" Bignose Van asked beside Avi, "It may seem far-fetched, but we're part of the Einsatzgruppen who assassinated the Holy Maiden." He didn't care if he killed Golia, but he did care if he was paid.
"That will have to wait until Saresa returns, she has already canonized me as a knight squire of Sky City when I escorted Coral back..."
"No wonder, I said why that deaf and dumb maid has a smile on her face, and often sneaks a look at you, it turns out that she is also being protected..."Fan looked back at the door of the room, and found that the door was tightly closed before continuing, "You were originally just a lowly little horseman in Golden Hoof City, and the other party was a maid who was rescued by the lord. If the two of you are together, it will be a very good match, and that girl seems to be very loved by Saresa, and she should be regarded as the second owner here, you really have found a treasure!" He also quietly told Avi that the girl who didn't look good at Avi looked at Avi with love in her eyes, it was the eyes of her lover, just like the blonde ponytail girl who paid to save Avi in the first place.
Avi didn't care about the slightly offensive words of the big-nosed Fanna, of course he knew that he only had Miranda in his heart, and if he wanted to marry a wife, he would also choose Miranda. But he also sensed that Coral was interesting to him during the trip, and he didn't know if the other party just regarded him as an older brother or really liked him. When he was a child in the Golden Hoof City, Avi often followed the young knight squires to learn the appearance of adults, and accosted young girls of their same age, Avi knew the love between men and women, and he also knew that the monogamous Oguna Empire would never allow a person to be half-hearted. But the relationship between himself and Coral is just good friends, and it is not as unbearable as Fan said.
By the time it was time for dinner, Coral had changed into a light-colored dress, and she had tied a bow in her hair, and she looked as beautiful as a noble-born young lady.
It was the first time that Avi and Fan had seen Coral with their simple armor off, and the other party was obviously dressed up carefully, "Let's go to dinner together." She invited.
The two followed Coral out of the guest room to where Saresa, Lord of the Castle, dined. A long, unmanned table was filled with a variety of food, and the real servant was lighting the candles in the dining place, while the butler-like uncle beckoned his servants to pour wine for the three men.
The housekeeper didn't sit down together, and Coral sat next to the owner's seat, and it seemed that Coral was the second master here, as Big Nose Fan said.
"If Sister Saresa comes back, she will definitely set up a banquet to entertain you, anyway, Avi and Fan are both survivors of the Special Operations Team, and this credit is enough to get a good reward. Coral gestured as she raised her glass and motioned for Avi and Fan to drink together. Avi's action of seeing the other party's meal was very beautiful, apparently due to the etiquette knowledge of the aristocratic education. And the big-nosed fan was already hungry, and he noticed the meaning of the coral sign language, and gobbled it up to himself.
The housekeeper who was standing on the side couldn't help coughing twice, probably he had never seen such a rude guy eating in this place. It's just that Sango, who is the temporary owner, didn't say anything, but asked his subordinates to bring an extra piece of food to Fan, so that the other party could eat enough.
After a few glasses of sweet wine, a faint flush began to appear on the coral's face. She looked at Avi from time to time, and gestured to Avi to see if the other party was used to some seafood that was unique to the place. After listening to Fan's analysis in the afternoon, Avi began to pay attention to Coral's attitude and expression towards him during the meal. However, Avi really found that Coral looked at him very differently, just like the girls who were accosted in the Golden Hoof City before and agreed to be the knight's squire female companion.
"Hmm... What was the generous reward you just mentioned?"
"For example, it is a position of honor, gold and silver, or something, or work. Coral explained to Avi with a smile.
"Oh, this fan is so much needed. ”
"Then Brother Avi, what do you want?" Sango put down his knife and fork and stared at Avi, who immediately picked up a piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, avoiding the embarrassment of looking at each other.
He held the bread in his mouth, and his two hands were in sign language, "I don't have anything I want, it's okay to be similar to Fan's, after all, I don't actually have any credit..."
Coral smiled and said, since Sister Saresa canonized Avi as a knight's squire, then it is natural that Avi can stay in Sky City and live as a part of Sky City and protect here. But she may have to leave again in a few days to escort Saresa's half-brother to the kingdom of Sarins to the west. If Avi was willing, she hoped that Avi would also be able to follow her and escort the little nobleman as a guard by the nobleman's side.
Avi didn't expect the other party to say that, he had just come here, why did he want to run west?
Seeing Avi's embarrassed appearance, Coral hurriedly explained that this matter was not necessary, and all decisions were up to Avi herself. And in addition to protecting the little nobleman, Saresa's half-brother might spend two more years at Mallot's school, after all, he was only twelve years old, which was the age of going to school, so if Avi was willing to go with Sango, then they would both become the little noble's scholars, and they would have to stay there for two years.
Fan, who was about to eat enough, began to raise his head to look at Sango's sign language, he probably understood some meaning, but Sango just looked at Avi talking, and Fan immediately continued to eat and drink with his head down.
"I... I need time to think about it..."Avi thought of his mother and Miranda.
At this moment, a boy came out of the side hall, "Who are you!, dare you dine here!" A boy dressed in rich clothes walked out surrounded by a group of servants, and Avi immediately guessed that the other party was Saresa's half-brother.
The butler immediately walked over and explained to the other party Sango's identity and status in the castle, and he also told the twelve-year-old noble imp that the side hall had prepared a delicious meal, and the other party could eat there.
"I don't want to! I'm royalty! I'm Sir Stitch! How can I be in the side hall!"
