Chapter 180: Wren's Forgiveness
"Wren is here, if you have anything to say, you can talk to him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Wren stood in front of Freya, the expression on his face a little struggling.
Freya handed the conch to Wren.
Wren cautiously took it.
"Maier?"
The moment he heard the voice, Maier almost felt the urge to cry, and there was a lot of things he wanted to say, but when the words came to his lips, in the end, only one sentence remained: "I'm sorry." ā
Confirming that it was Meier's voice, Wren was pleasantly surprised at first, because for the past ten years, Meier was his best friend, and there was no one.
So after learning the news of Myer's death, Wren was also the saddest one.
But there's been so much going on in this time.
Especially the death of Kaka.
However, even without Kaka's death, Wren would feel bad, he regarded Maier as his best friend, but Maier hid something from him.
Although this concealment is well-intentioned, out of reason, Wren can accept it, but out of emotion, Wren cannot accept it.
There was silence for a long time, and finally, Wren said again: "Mayer, can I scold you?"
"Scold, I know I've gone too far, so no matter how ugly you scold, I'm willing to bear it. Meier stood on the balcony and looked at the sky.
But in the end, Wren didn't scold.
"Maier, when did you start being a magician?"
Melt, after a pause, said, "Before I went to Byzantium for the first time, on the way I was hunted down, if I hadn't become a magician, maybe I would have died that time. ā
"But I regret it now, I think I might as well have died then, because then I wouldn't have met you, and you wouldn't be sad about the news of my fake death, and you and Kaka wouldn't have gone to war, and Kaka wouldn't have died. ā
Wren was silent for a moment and said, "Meier, I am indeed angry because you lied to us, we treat you as our best friend, but you cheated on us. ā
"It makes me feel bad, I don't think you're treating me as a friend. ā
"Maybe you have your considerations, you are well-intentioned, but, true friends, shouldn't they be the kind of people who trust each other and can always stand behind them?"
Maier could only repeat again: "I'm sorry. ā
"But. Wren suddenly changed his words and said, "After I put myself in your shoes and put myself in your position, I found that I couldn't do better." ā
"If I were a magician, if I were a heretic whom everyone in Byzantium shouted at, I would not have the means, the courage to reveal my true identity. ā
"Because I'm afraid, not of the church, of the temple, of the pastor, but of a former friend who knows who I really am. ā
"And I confess, Mel, I didn't believe it at first when I learned of your identity as a magician, and the second time I stayed away from you, for heresy is too evil in the temple preaching. ā
"It wasn't until I thought back to all the times when we used to work in the Pisa library that I gradually banished this thought from my mind. ā
"I realized that magicians are not all evil, they are flesh and blood, and they can be friends. ā
"So, Mel, I forgive you. ā
"You don't have to feel too guilty, you've done your best, we're still friends, if you really feel guilty, then invite me to dinner later, when we have a chance to meet." ā
Maier was suddenly very moved, and asked himself, after such a thing, it would be difficult for Maier to accept the other party, maybe he would still be friends, but not the kind of friends who were good enough.
There will always be some mustard in the heart.
But Maier could tell that Wren had truly forgiven himself and treated himself as he had done when he was in the Pisa Library.
This immediately made Mel's mood feel a little better.
But there was another stone on Meier's heart, and that was Kaka's death.
At the mention of Kaka, Wren also fell silent.
After a long time, Wren said: "Kaka's death, I regret it, none of us thought that the enemy would ambush in that place and use such a powerful force. ā
"By the time the rest of us found out, we went to the rescue, but it was too late, Kaka was hit by an arrow in the neck, and there was no priest nearby, so it was impossible to save him. ā
"But it's all the soldiers of Orleans, the Assassin, Mel, it's not your fault. ā
Maier looked up at the sky and said, "After all, it is because of me that you will go to the battlefield." ā
"Nope. Wren said: "Even without you, we would have gone to war, because the contradictions between Byzantium and Orleans have become completely irreconcilable, and a great war is doomed." ā
"No one is immune to this great battle, and it's only natural for me and Kaka to go to war, even my cousin, who has never trained as a knight, has gone to war. ā
"So, Mel, it's not your fault. ā
"If you want to blame, you can only blame this war. ā
......
......
After ending the call with Myer, Wren put down the conch, saluted Freya, and left.
As he passed Kaka's house, Wren paused for a moment, but then left.
Wren still vividly remembered the scene before Kaka died, grabbing the hem of his clothes, blood gushing from his mouth, and babbling a long way.
Maybe if you don't say so much, Kaka will be able to hold on a little longer.
Kaka's voice continued to recur in Wren's mind.
"Wren, I'm going to die, I can feel it, I know you like Ellie, I know you didn't want to see me before, but we're good friends now, and I treat you like my best friend. ā
"Now, I'm dying, so, friend, can I get rid of you?"
"Can you take care of Ellie for me?"
Wren glanced at Ellie's possible direction from a distance, then withdrew his gaze.
After all, there is no fate between the two, and until now, Wren will not force it, even if Kaka is no longer there, Wren will not let Ellie marry him.
Because Wren could feel that Ellie didn't have that kind of liking between men and women for herself.
Therefore, Wren can only take care of Ellie as a friend.
Later, Wren will have his own wife, his own family, and his own children, but Ellie will always be Wren's friend, and Wren will inevitably stand up when Ellie is in trouble.
This is the promise that Wren made to Kaka in his heart. (To be continued.) )
