Chapter 16: The Reward for a Few Strokes

Far from being as lonely as the literati described, the night became more noisy. At least that's the kind of truth in Mo Chen's heart.

Flora didn't answer his words, just stared at him with "deep" eyes like the "sea", and when Mo Chen was about to sit down weakly on the ground, Flora laughed nervously.

"Can't you come and take a look if you're fine?" Flora stretched her body, making her plump delicate body appear more abruptly in front of Mo Chen.

"But you can, but can you no longer come over when I'm sleeping?" Mo Chen was unmoved by the beautiful scenery in front of him, he was very self-aware. Because even if you transform into a beast, you still can't realize your inner impulse, so it's better to be honest.

"Alright, don't be so restrained. You rubbed my chest so happily just now, where is that energy now? Come and sit and talk. Flora pointed to where Mo Chen had been sleeping just now and motioned for him to sit down.

"Can you not tell you what I did to you when I was sleeping? Mo Chen shyly looked at his face that did not have red pigment floating at all, looked at the proud chest opposite, and said embarrassedly.

Under Flora's gaze, he reluctantly climbed up.

"Tell me, what do you want to ask? As long as it's not very private, I'll tell you. ”

"Privacy? What privacy can you have?"

"For example, I'm trying to help Edda's Song solve the problem of food waste. Mo Chen touched his bare chin and said very shyly. "I don't tell him in general. ”

"Judging by your usual performance in the cafeteria, you have worked very hard...... It's really hard for you to do this kind of thing. ”

"I think so too, but unfortunately no one can understand it except you......"

The conversation never shifted to what Flora wanted, and this person was really too good to talk about it. "Well, can you tell us about your hometown, and your loved ones?"

Mo Chen was puzzled, this woman came here in the middle of the night, it turned out to be a homely thing?"That's right, right! When can you ask, do you have to come in the middle of the night? Don't you want others to have any dirty thoughts?" Looking at the beautiful scenery close at hand, Mo Chen's heart was beating violently at this moment, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he couldn't hide his face that was quickly dyed red by stimulation.

"Don't worry, no one cares about the hostess of the third watch checking the pet room in the middle of the night. Flola said that the word "pet" was, and her tone was particularly accentuated.

“......”

Under Flora's extremely unfriendly gaze, Mochen began to tell her story.

It is probably the extraordinarily quiet of the campus at night, and the silence can pluck the weakest heartstrings in people's hearts. Living in a desert town on the edge of the empire, a hard but joyful childhood was accompanied by his grandfather's earnest teaching and rigorous training. At that time, the most long-awaited thing every day was the evening, because I could play with my friends at night. Riding on the cool night breeze, chasing and frolicking in the streets. Occasionally gather around the bards passing by the town and listen to the beautiful poems they sing.

The town was on the edge of the Weeping Desert, with poor water and scarce materials, and even then they didn't want to leave. Because poverty does not erase the tenacity that remains in their souls, especially the imprint left by their ancestors in their hearts.

At that time, I was thinking about it almost every day, on the other side of the Wailing Desert was the Dawn Mountains, and what was the other side of the Dawn Mountains, and what was the outside of the town like? I was looking forward to the day when I would be able to leave here and travel to the outside world.

"Now that you're away from your hometown, aren't your relatives worried?" asked Flora softly as she looked at the older boy in front of her, feeling a sense of pity in her heart.

"Grandpa doesn't have to worry about me anymore because my only relative has left a few years ago. Weeping over the desert's once-in-a-century black storm left him forever under the yellow sand. ”

"If it's convenient, can you tell me about your grandfather?" Flora asked seemingly casually, the look in her eyes flashing with an unknown brilliance. But Mo Chen, who was already in deep thought, didn't find out.

"Grandpa, he is a very powerful person, and he is also a very strict person. When I was young, I couldn't sleep at night, and my grandfather would tell me about his youth, saying that he had been to many places and seen a lot of people and strange things. At that time, listening to stories every night was the only pleasure I had before I went to bed.

In particular, he weeps in the desert with his friends in search of a strange material called Black Steel...... I was thinking, what is black steel? My grandfather told me that there was a place in the desert called Noval, where many of these things were buried, as well as the darkness of the previous era. And he told me not to talk about it. ”

Flora was stunned, "Then why did you tell me about this?"

Scratching his black hair, Mo Chen said very calmly: "You rescued me from slavery, what does it matter to tell you these things? ”

"So you mean, you've told someone before, is it Natalia O. de la Locle?"

"How could it be her! That was twelve years ago. Of course, there was a bard who asked me about it, and I told him about it, but then I was punished by my grandfather. I seem to remember her name as 'Deanna O'Sehilar'. ”

The name Deanna O. Sehilal! gave Flora an inexplicable shudder in her heart. This peer of her parents' contemporaries has the strength and wisdom above any crown prince. If it weren't for the fact that the Lord of the Sky had been crowned so far, their generation would not have had a chance to join the battle for imperial power, and even now she still overwhelmed the other crown princes. Although many people haven't seen her in years, if anyone wants to sit in Ram's place, she will definitely appear!

But who would have thought that twelve years ago, this woman who was known as the most beautiful and powerful woman in the imperial capital, would actually go to Mo Chen's hometown?! And to follow the clues of Novar and Black Steel! What did she want to do?

"Do you know who she is?" asked Flora, who was calm on the surface, but there was a huge wave in her heart.

"Isn't she just a bard? Mo Chen tilted his head and pondered for a while, looked at Flora with an indifferent expression in front of him, and asked curiously.

"Nothing, I'm just asking. I'm curious that you would casually tell someone else the news. ”

"Wasn't I young at that time? How could I know so much?"

"You're not too young now, but why are you telling me again?!"

Mo Chen looked away embarrassedly, "You wear so little, don't you just want to know these things from me?" and I don't know where Norval is now, and what the black steel is used for, so it doesn't matter if you tell you." Just pay me a few times on your chest. ”
