Chapter Twenty-Eight: Kate's Story
"I'm the undercover agent. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" When Kate's voice came, Li Mo turned around, and Kate behind him was still full of smiles.
"Oh? I didn't think you would admit it. Li Mo looked at Kate's smile, as if Kate was just discussing today's dinner, and responded very calmly.
"Aren't you surprised?" this time Kate was surprised.
"Why be surprised? When Jack told me that the undercover agent sent by Kerry is someone who Thor's hammer can't refuse and won't refuse, I began to doubt you!" Li Mo shrugged: "I know that I am not the secret agent, then, the only one who meets this condition is you as a magician." ”
Kate laughed: "Haha, yes, since you were the most suspicious, then it should be me." This is a simple and crude inference, but it is indeed the most effective. ”
"But Jack didn't doubt you, otherwise, he would have told me. ”
"yes, Jack didn't doubt me. Unlike you, my identity as a magician is real. Identity can be faked, but strength cannot. So, no one dared to guess that Kerry had the ability to hire a sorcerer to come undercover in Mjolnir. ”
"But you came, and you didn't hesitate. ”
"Well, then why is that?" Kate did not deny Limer's statement, but began to ask rhetorically.
"There are only two possibilities I can think of. Or, Kerry gave you a condition that you can't refuse. Or, you're sent by another, more powerful force. But the first one doesn't make sense, and if Kerry has a condition that you can't refuse, then he can keep you in Silver Wolf. After all, a magician is already no small trump card. So, I think, there must be a powerful force behind it that even you can't refuse. Li Mo did not hesitate and immediately gave an answer.
"Yes, this power is so powerful that I, a magician, stand like an ant in front of him. So, I can only come. Saying that he was an ant, Kate didn't have half of the displeasure on her face, as if he was talking about another unrelated person.
"Then what do you have to tell me about that force when you come here?"
"Well, why do you think that? Isn't it because I'm afraid that after Jack talked to you, I was afraid that the matter would be exposed and kill people?" said that he would kill people, but Li Mo and Kate didn't make any moves, but instead stood in place with smiles on their faces, like two old friends talking.
"If it had been before yesterday, I would have thought so. However, today I won't. You've found your way, Kate, and would I still think so?"
After Li Mo's words were finished, Kate laughed out loud, and Li Mo still looked at him with a smile.
After a long time, Kate, who finally stopped smiling, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Since Jack just told you his story, then I want to tell my story too, I wonder if you are interested in hearing it?"
"Gladly. Li Mo sat down in front of the chair and made a gesture of please.
Kate waved her hand no, then cleared her throat as his story began: "Unlike Jack, I was born in a big and bustling city, but it's a place that no one in the city wants to talk about. Some people call it a slum, but those aristocratic lords call it a rat's nest. According to them, it was a place where only rats stayed, and the people who lived there were tumors of the city, pests that should be exterminated. ”
"But, having said that, no one wants to exterminate it. The people there are doing the lowest jobs in the city. In addition, there are many scenes that are not suitable for the bustling streets, and they are also placed there. I grew up living there and growing up. ”
"My father used to be a mercenary. However, during a mission, he lost his right arm forever. For a warrior, the loss of an arm is not hesitant to take away his life. So, he took me here with me, who was still in my infancy. He could never pick up the greatsword again, but with the only remaining hand he picked up the broom and earned me food and drink. ”
With Kate's voice, a scene of father and son relying on each other appeared in front of Li Mo, but the protagonist of the story did not have any pain on his face, only nostalgia and memories.
"Although life was very difficult, my father still tried his best to increase my nutrition for me. Because he said that if you want to be a warrior, you have to have a strong body. At this point in the story, Li Mo understood the origin of Kate's melee moves when she fought Heuman.
And Kate's story continues: "Life in the slums is hard, but it's not the hardest. The most unbearable thing is the people who live there. That's a group of people who have no hope and no tomorrow. Their hearts have sunk and they have become numb to their circumstances. Moreover, they do not see the diligence of others. There's a big sauce jar that will slowly assimilate the people inside. ”
"I have seen them grovel before the nobles more than once, and curse behind their backs when the nobles are gone. More than once, I heard them talking about my father behind my back, saying that he was a fool who wanted to buy me meat for a little money. 'It's better to have a bottle of wine and have a good time' are their exact words. At that time, I vowed that I would be promoted to a warrior as soon as possible and leave this place of despair with my father. ”
"But, no matter how much I trained, I was just a warrior apprentice, and I didn't make any progress, and just when I was about to despair, a man who claimed to be from the Blue Fire family came to me and said that I had the talent of a magician, that he wanted to take me away from my father, and that he wanted me to become a real magician. ”
"Oh, what about after that?" When Li Mo heard about the Blue Fire Family, he immediately thought of the Blue Fire flagship store that tricked him into coming to the other world.
This gave me a glimpse of the dawn, and that night, my father bought two pounds of wine for the first time and got drunk. He hugged me and cried, saying that his son was about to become a nobleman. At that time, I knew that being a magician is a noble profession, and that being a warrior can make me live with dignity, and being a magician can make me a nobleman. So, after arriving at the Blue Fire Family, I left the training of warriors behind and devoted myself completely to magical training. ”
"The Blue Fire family was very nice to us, they arranged a small yard for me and my father alone. It's not big, but it's full of warmth. We finally stopped worrying about food every day, and I quickly broke through to becoming a magician, and I made rapid progress. ”
As the story deepened, the father and son finally ushered in a harmonious life, but Li Mo knew that behind all this, there was a big net that was slowly growing, and the conspiracy was about to take shape.
