Chapter 101: The Man Forsaken by Time (Part II)

"You are right, the Order and the Society share the same goal in helping those in need, and that is why we often cooperate with each other in friendship. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The opening is a "political-specific discourse" without the slightest flaw, trying to keep the expression on his face unchanged, and showing a smile is a little more difficult for Moore to speak, and the soldier who has a pretty good memory still remembers Vina's evaluation of his laughter "terrifying".

It's really so scary, don't laugh anymore.

To be honest, although he felt that it was a torment at the time, if he hadn't had the experience of communicating with several lords during his trip to the peninsula, Moore knew very well that he would probably have nothing to say in the face of Theodor's sudden "temptation" at this time.

Now, after a few words, Moore is almost certain that the other party is not really hateful or conflicted about the association, but just a favorite temptation of the big guys.

"Well, that's right, that's the premise of our cooperation. Just as the warrior speculated, Theodor did not move for the time being after the sudden release of his momentum, but his next words made Moore's heart sink again, and his thoughts, which had finally calmed down, fluctuated again.

"However, some of the association's recent actions really make us feel unapproves......"

Is that what he's really trying to say? ...... Thinking wrong?

The deliberately elongated playful tone caused Moore to break out in a cold sweat again, and the other party threw out a blow that made the warrior once again unable to understand the other party's true thoughts. This time, he didn't know how to speak, but he could only choose to remain silent.

With a breezy smile on his face, Theodor did not continue the conversation.

......

......

......

"May I ask questions?"

Breaking through his tense nerves, Moore, who was almost "self-defeating" and in a state of battle, was thinking about Troy's bland words. Just now, he also felt the hallucinations in front of him, but he didn't seem to have any uncomfortable feelings.

"The communication between you is really 'profound'. ”

Shaking his head slightly, he spat out words that made the two priests behind Theodor look slightly different, and the boy never hid his true thoughts.

Troy has never had any particular feelings about stress. The point to be made here is that whether it is "illusion", "magic", "momentum", or "aura", such techniques as Theodor and Kyle of the Peninsula are very difficult to manipulate, and this is reflected in the fact that it is difficult to cast only one target, and it is very easy to affect everyone within a certain range.

It can be said that there are pros and cons.

"Oh, sorry forgot, it was just a whim, and I casually had a 'friendly exchange' with Moore. Waving his hand to the warrior who was still standing and seemed to be poised to attack, he sat down leisurely, and lowered his gaze to the same height as Troy, though difficult because of the height difference, and Theodor always looked calm, as if nothing had happened just now, "Excuse me." ”

Although, his words can only be "perfunctory" for an "ignorant teenager" like Troy.

He definitely wanted to do something about it, Moore was sure. If Troy, who is "strong" enough to completely ignore the surrounding atmosphere, breaks the deadlock, then even if the other party does not do something substantial, he may make some "irrational" actions because he can't bear it.

――It seems that I am really not suitable to be a "captain", and it is more appropriate to be an ordinary "warrior".

This is his truest thought at the moment.

"Well, what do you mean by 'a man abandoned by time'?" Noticing the small movement of Moore's clenched fists and loosening, Troy rarely frowned, but still gave priority to the question that had been bothering him for a long time, "Why did Theodor simply hand over the letter as soon as he mentioned that he was a man abandoned by time?"

Shifting his gaze from his companion to his new friend, the teenager's description sounded less like talking to anyone and more like talking to himself.

"I can't understand a lot of your behavior, because I haven't heard of many words that seem common sense to you, and this will ...... Does it make you wonder, 'unbelievable'?"

The next action was even more unbelievable, the boy actually stood up and bowed to the two of them in the same way as others.

"If so, please let me say 'I'm sorry.'" ”

As soon as these words came out, the two priests who had changed slightly in front of them showed surprised looks.

"Hmm......"

"Huh?"

――He would apologize for such a thing?

There is no doubt that Troy is changing. Was it just because of Vina's previous conversations with him, or was there some other reason?, but either way, the change in the boy surprised and delighted Mohr, who was a companion.

He seems to want to be "like everyone else".

"Huh, boy, how could you say something like that, haha, should you say you're too honest or what?hahahaha...... I obviously like your uprightness, ha. ”

Compared with the surprise of the other three people in the room, Theodore's response was more "unique", and in the midst of Lang Ran's laughter, his not tall body suddenly stood up, stepped out, and a white shadow appeared behind the young man.

"Wow, why are you ......"

Sensing that the person in front of him disappeared instantly, and at the same time the magic burst out, Troy, who suddenly turned around and turned his head on the chair, heard a "click" and accidentally twisted his neck.

"Huh. The boy's "stupidity" made Theodore chuckle again, and put his arm on the back of the chair, but his leisurely gaze was withdrawn from Moore, who looked even more surprised, "Young man, how old do you think I am this year?"

"It hurts...... Hmm, you look like my brother is the same age, you must be only thirteen or fourteen ...... 'years old'. Frankly stated the fact that he was "in pain" and guessed the age of Theodore, but after thinking about it, he couldn't judge a person by his appearance alone, and Troy, who rubbed his aching neck, immediately made a little addition.

"However, you give me the feeling of being 'big', like an 'adult' like my father. ”

"It feels great? hahaha, I'm really 'liking' your difference. Troy's description made Theodore smile even more innocent, but the words of the mid-ranking cadre of the Order made the breath in the room suddenly become heavy again.

"I was thirteen years old, thirty years ago...... Well, it was thirty-one years ago, ha, I always had no idea about the passage of time. ”

"Thirty-one years ago you were thirteen, so you should be forty-four now?"

As if he didn't feel the sudden change of cold aura around him, Troy followed the example of Theodor and put his hands on the back of the chair, and at the same time, his clear eyes met the other party's "murderous" eyes in an instant.

"Well, that's right, that's why Moore recognizes my status as a 'bishop'. ”

Another momentum coercion was in vain, and Xiodor, who knew that it was not an accident just now, had a sharp light in his eyes, waved his hand slightly, and he no longer looked at the young man, he slowly walked back into the distance, but he was not in a hurry to sit down.

He was waiting for the teenager's response.

"I see, then I understand. ”

That's all Troy's response was. According to common sense, the question of why Theodor was still thirteen or fourteen years old did not arise in the young man's heart.
