Chapter 15: Divergence
With a crisp scream, the room fell silent with honey, and Seawall drooled slightly. I was very sure that I didn't go to the wrong room, and my first reaction at this moment was whether I went to the wrong room.
The moonlight provided by the crescent moon was not enough to see the person on the bed, and just as Seawall was about to open his mouth to confirm, the window suddenly burst open with a bang. Sawdust shattered and scattered in the air like snowflakes, and even in the dim moonlight, a white figure could be seen breaking through the window at an unbelievable speed.
However, to Seatith's displeasure, although he saw the figure that broke in, his body did not have time to react. The other party was in front of him in an instant, followed by a sharp pain in his neck and a dizzy feeling of being deprived of consciousness.
Before passing out, I only vaguely heard the ethereal "Don't." ”
———————————————
"Grandpa, what kind of people are my parents?" Somewhere on the prairie where I don't know you, apart from herds of cattle and sheep, there is only an old but well-kept wooden house.
"Isn't what you inherited from them, your father must be a handsome and powerful knight, and your mother must be a wise and handsome magician." A silver-haired old man who looked at a hundred and sixty or seventy years old sat beside the boy and praised his parents. Although he is old, his straight backbone gives people the illusion of looking at the prime of life.
With a height of 1.8 meters, even now he has a very good physique, and under his shirt are bulging muscles with explosive strength, I can't imagine how high-intensity exercise such an old man needs every day. to be able to keep this figure.
"But I've never seen them." Faced with the question that the boy had mentioned more than once, the old man was as silent as ever, and finally sighed softly. "Well, how about I send you to the academy? Then I'll help you find your mom and dad. ”
"Really?" The boy looked up at the kind old man with a happy face.
"Of course, when did grandpa lie to you."
The wind blew across the grassland, and the sheep ate the grass slowly. The boy was smiling happily at the fence because of something happy. The old man on the side looked at the boy's flawless smile and grinned.
There is still residual pain in the neck after the blow. When I tried to open my eyes, I saw the yellow-brown roof of the inn.
"Wake up, wake up! The master woke up. With a heavy head, before he could figure out what was going on, Aya and the innkeeper on the side of the bed chattered a lot, and were finally driven out by the seawalls.
The seawall that had been cleared down by himself stared at the ceiling silently. If it weren't for the splendor of the planks on the window and the tingling pain coming from the neck, it would have been as if last night's events hadn't happened.
"That guy is not strong." The white figure kept flashing in his mind, although his body didn't react at that time, but his consciousness opened the enchantment magic, but that person acted as if he hadn't hit anything, and a simple hand knife made him lose the ability to resist.
Cold sweat ran down his forehead, and finally he took a deep breath helplessly and called Aya in.
"There was a woman in my room last night, do you know what's going on?" Tentatively, Seawall asked, with the last suspicion of luck.
"I know, when I came back alone last night, the man ran out of the alley wrapped in a gray cloak, as if he was hiding from something. It also bumped into me. ”
Aya recounted last night's experience with exaggerated body movements. Seatith sighed helplessly.
Judging from Aya's final explanation, it was a woman who met something last night, and when she came out of the alley, she happened to bump into Aya, and Aya pulled the other party to the hotel as soon as she was excited. Originally, I was going to let the other party live in Aya's room, but it turned out that the woman had to live alone. Aya was going to explain it to herself when she came back. But he didn't come back for a long time, and Aya fell asleep without holding on. In the end, I was woken up by the fight on my side.
No, it's not so much a fight, it's a one-sided fight on his side, after all, he didn't even defend at that time.
"Damn, when is the underground organization of human trafficking going to hire such a powerful thug." Seatith rubbed her shoulders and wailed. I was really killed by this apprentice, and I was yin for no reason.
"Master, are we going to save her?"
"No, the other party could have killed me last night, but no, I don't want to make things bigger, or what they're doing now, so they can't attract too much attention." Seatith was helped up by Aya. After moving his arm and feeling that it was not in the way, he began to pack his luggage.
"And if others don't say it, just the guy who came to rescue you last night and captured the guy back, I will never win, and if I catch it, I will only get myself in."
Aya immediately became anxious when she heard Seatith's explanation, "But"
"Finally!" When he walked to the square table and heard that Aya still had something to say, Seawall turned around sharply and stretched out a finger to Aya.
"I still have important things to do, we don't have time to waste here, now, go back and pack your bags. We're leaving. After Haitius finished speaking, he stopped looking at Aya and carefully sorted out his clothes.
"No, what about that girl last night? I could feel that at that moment she was as helpless as I was, and I swore to her that you would definitely protect her. Aya yelled as she looked at Seawall, who was packing her belongings.
"My ability is also limited, I have a very important person missing now, I have to go back to find him, I still have to ensure your safety, I don't have the extra energy to care about other things." Seatith explained to Aya as she packed her luggage.
"Then you don't have to worry about my affairs, you go to Cleington, I'll save her!" With a hysterical roar, he slammed open the door and ran out.
"Phew......" Seatith stopped what he was doing, watched Aya run down the stairs, and sighed helplessly. After glancing at the communication spar that had not been replied to, he continued to pack his luggage.
"Huh~Huh~Huh~" trotted all the way to the place where she met the woman yesterday, Aya gasped and kept looking around, but she couldn't see anything except the crowd accident. In the end, I ran straight into the alley.
But what she didn't know was that while she was looking around, someone noticed her, and walked with her into the dark alley.
