Chapter 54: Rotten Seeds

readx;? Arcanis opened his eyes, and there was no leakage of cold air from the ceiling. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info bone-chilling wind and dirty and smelly air.... Let's put it this way, if you're lying here, you won't have the slightest chance of thinking about them. Arcarnes found herself lying on a warm and gorgeous bed, the soft embroidered silver bed gently holding her. Golden sunlight fell on the bed through the fluttering silk curtains.

Arcanis thought it was summer.

She sat up, her hands on her forehead, and a faint milky smell on her wrists. The mind was in a state of confusion, as if I had a long, long nightmare.

Hunger, death, and empire split chaos like lightning. She snapped into her senses and glanced over her left shoulder. The soft thin quilt slid slightly, revealing snow-white shoulders and no monster-like left hand.

"Dream?" her beautiful face was filled with a bit of confusion and expectation.

The thin quilt slid down her smooth arms, empty below her elbows. She didn't seem to be convinced, but her white left hand touched, and she was sure that her left hand was long gone. She leaned against the head of the bed, closed her eyes, and after a moment opened them, as fast as if she had only blinked. The confusion and softness in the blue eyes disappeared without a trace, only a cold and firm light.

"Your Excellency the Count of Radovid. She looked at the young earl, who was sitting in a wheelchair in front of the window, flipping through a book, "Tell me, the three questions of life, where am I, where do I come from, and where am I going?"

"Miss Alina, your humor is a touching virtue, especially to me. His bloodless fingers flipped through the yellowed pages, "You have prepared a room in my mansion for my future wife, and I use my authority to bring you from the dungeon, and where you go is up to your decision." ”

"I can't help myself. She said as she slowly clenched her fists, a strange paralysis throughout her body, "I can't even strangle a rabbit now, what do you want?"

"It's great to see my magic healing potion working so well on you. His wheelchair spun around half a circle, facing Arcarnes. Radovid looked at Arcanes, his usually gloomy face smiling, "Since Ebu grass has a paralyzing effect, its only sequelae is paralysis. A small cut can paralyze an elephant for a day, but you always surprise me. ”

"Surprise? Am I getting better too quickly?"

"It amazed me, and in just one day, most of your wounds were healed. "Of course, it's only a small part, and it's only insignificant compared to the other thing." If you stay in a coma for one more day, I'll lose you forever. Our union is a natural and beautiful thing. I shouldn't have doubted that, hours of anxiety were punishment for my doubts, beautiful fawn. ”

"It would be a wonderful relief to be in a coma for one more day. ”

"Your cousin is coming. Radovid closed his book, "He set out for the city of Carmore in the Vader battleship, arriving as soon as tomorrow night." ”

"Him?" Arcanis' pupils dilated in surprise, and his voice trembled slightly. There is a complex emotion in the voice.

"Flogisa, now the Imperial Prosecutor. He said, "He swore to lock you up for the rest of your life." ”

"So you won't be kind enough to let me go. ”

"No, no. Miss Alina, as much as I admire you and firmly believe in your innocence, if the Imperial Prosecutor comes with a document that symbolizes the authority of the Empire, I will have no choice but to hand you over. He said, "Even, I can't defy the Imperial Intelligence Service." If your wounds heal, I can only bear to send you back to the cold dungeon. Forgive me, I'm just a little count. ”

"Yes, little. She smiled sarcastically, "Is it true that if I were a little countess, everything would be different?"

"If you wear it, you're a member of my family. ”

On a silver plate, a delicate ring in the sun shines brightly, awakening a woman's love for something that shines.

"Nope. Arcanis said. She didn't see the slightest expression of disappointment on Radovid's face.

He clapped his hands, and Lorna came in with a plate. On the plate was a silver metal arm, and she looked so haughty that she didn't even look at Arcarnes, put down the plate and turned away.

"Forgive me for taking matters into account, I've burned your twisted and ugly left hand. I hope you will accept this little gift from me. ”

Arcanis didn't even look at it.

"Are the men and women who took me out of the factory from the Book Society?" she asked.

"No, they're being taken advantage of. They have been tracking down your whereabouts, but they have been deceived by the books. "The books will surprise me, they have built a fantasy in the city." ”

"Then misled two dog men and women into taking me in. ”

"Miss Aliana, I hope they're wrong?"

"Wrong?"

"As much as I am your admirer, I will never harbor a murderer who walks the chaos and fear of my city. "I sincerely hope you're not that kind of person." ”

"I'm afraid so. "For the revenge of my friends, for the sake of 100,000 people, I am willing to pay with my blood." ”

"You're too obsessed. He sighed, "If I could, I'd rather burn that night's report than let you see it." Because they will confuse the kind of you inside. Women are all small children at heart, yearning for innocent kindness. They don't deserve your sympathy. They are savage, foolish, filthy, ugly, scars, sickness, filth. ”

Radovid's wheelchair, carrying him to his desk. He opened the drawer and took out a small cloth bag,

"I have been like you before, and I sympathize with them because of their resemblance to ours. It wasn't until my father took me to their settlements to witness their ugliness that I realized that they were morally corrupt, of low mind, of no idea of beauty, and that they were mosquitoes that sucked the blood of the Empire. The most disgusting thing is that you can't destroy them yet, because some naturally noble people are born in them. ”

"Some people who are born with a high affinity for the elements. Changing the pretty name will only make you more hypocritical. ”

"They are like hostage-taking bandits, who want to hold hostages of those who are born noble, so that the empire can only suck the blood of those who are useless. Ladovid sniffed the cloth bag in his hand and showed a disgusted expression, "They are inferior and smelly wheat seeds, but because there are several good seeds mixed in them, we have to endure their stench and patiently sift through them one by one." ”

"Monsters. His tone sent a shudder to Arcarnes.

"You have the stupidity that women have always had, and you can't understand what justice is and what is good. Miss Alina, I'm disappointed, I thought you were a smart woman. ”

Arcanis stared at him, branches swaying slowly outside the window, and I don't know how long it took.

"You have so many forest animals. Arcanis bluntly changed the subject.

"Indeed, those beautiful creatures, they make me believe that there is still something beautiful in the world. "In order to keep these beautiful creatures from being defiled and destroyed, I have kept almost all the animals in my forest for this winter. ”

Arkanis knew he was referring to refugees from outside, and it was no wonder that he didn't find a single animal when he fled.

She closed her eyes, not wanting to look at the young Count any more, lest she vomit. There are such people in the world who have distorted values in their minds and love animals far more than their own kind. Isn't he the ugliest demon in the world who goes to great lengths to starve people to death and send them to slaughterhouses? Ironically, this demon forces people to eat people, but sentences people to death in the name of cannibalism. What's even more terrifying is that the empire also supports him, or the empire has specially cultivated him.

"In the past, the empire regarded them as two-legged sheep. Arcanis's voice grew lower and lower, "I see I'm wrong, they're just grass seeds, not even sheep." ”

She was so tired that she fell asleep.

She dreamed of Arcanis.
