Chapter 87: Gentle Hate (Part II)

At this moment, a laugh came: "Hehe, uncle, you are too stupid, how can you not see such a simple action?"

Toba's voice sounded: "How do I know that picking up the teacup means that I want to go away! Just say that we are going to sleep and let us go away, don't you even bother to open your mouth? Even if you are a noble lord, you can't be lazy like that!"

A green shadow flashed, and Sibi appeared in the room, pointing outside and smiling so hard that he couldn't stand up: "Uncle, if you don't leave, that old man dressed in gold has brought a teacup more than a dozen times, and he is so anxious that he is about to curse! Don't you see the constipated expression on his face?

Toba bowed his head and stooped through the doorway, sat on the ground, and complained, "If you hadn't reminded me at last, how long would I have been staring at each other with the noble lord! The chair was too small, like a toy. ”

"Is it because your ass is big? Sitting on half your ass crushed the glittering golden chair of the house. I'm afraid that if I break your chair, I'll have to pay someone else. Sibi jumped on the roommate's arrow, picked up a comfortable position and sat down, his legs dangling: "Hey, brother, Brother Ellie, what are you two talking about?"

Elliott was stunned for a moment, obviously not able to lie, and stammered: "Miss Sibi, we, we are talking about the current situation in Bazeral, as well as the combat effectiveness of the Earth and Earth Dragons. ”

Sibby turned his head and stared at Jonah with big green eyes, "I don't believe it." Dude, you say. ”

The astrologer's apprentice looked away from the other in panic: "That's it, boring topic." Oops, it's so late, sleep sleep. Toba, what time will you leave tomorrow?"

"Set off at dawn, sir. If you must go, let me carry you on your back, your body is still too weak. My back is comfortable, and Sibi can testify to me. Tobal replied heavily.

Sibiro jumped up to Jonah, pinched Jonah's cheek with two fingers, and approached his face, the tip of his nose almost touching the tip of the other's nose, "Hello, brother, have you ever cried?" ”

Jonah blushed and reached out to push Sibby's claws away, "Don't talk nonsense! Who's crying? I'm just ...... It's just a little homesick. ”

When he heard this, Sibi quieted down, sighed, sat side by side with Jonah on the bed, looked at the fire, and said, "No wonder." It's been less than a month since you've been out of the house. Or is it home?"

The astrologer's apprentice hesitated, "Actually, I don't have much of an impression of home, and I followed Mr. Koshawar into the tower at a very young age. However, I do miss the Tower of Astrology and Mr. Koshavet, and I wonder how he is now. ”

Sibi stared at him with sparkling eyes: "Don't worry, brother." Tomorrow after this battle is over, Sister Long Ji and Brother Eli will go to the south, and it is quite boring for us to stay here, so why don't we follow you back to St. Borun and look for the teacher's traces?"

Toba touched the back of his head, "If the adults are willing, then of course it will be fine." But I don't know if Jekong is willing to do it, and I'm afraid that my father will be sad when he leaves. ”

"Cut-" Sibi shushed disdainfully, "Mother-in-law, yeson will definitely agree, do you believe it or not?" Jekong, we will accompany Brother Jonah to find his teacher, we will go wherever he goes, will you participate?"

The southerner standing in the corner was as silent as ever, and the Buddha's tooth jumped in the scabbard and made a click, which was an affirmative answer.

"Look!" Sibby waved his little fist, "Uncle, what else do you have to say?"

Toba grinned: "Actually, the astrologer has long said that he will canonize me as his servant knight, Ellie said, it's just a ceremony......"

Jonah interjected with a headache: "Toba, you don't have to be that ......"

“...... Swear allegiance to your lord!" Toba bowed respectfully.

"That's it!" Sibi jumped up happily and took Jonah's left hand, "Brother, please take care of me in the future, I will inevitably have something to trouble you." ”

Jonah felt warm and flattered, and he opened his mouth several times and said, "Thank you...... Thank you. I haven't figured out what to do yet, I think I should continue to follow the prophecy of the betrayer Segres, and Mr. Koshavoy should be fine, and I'll hear from him as soon as I reconnect with the Astrologer Society. He was suddenly stunned, "Speaking of which, I haven't paid careful attention to what the next prophecy is, and I don't know if I can find some clues." ”

"Take a look. "Wherever you go, we'll follow you, and there's nowhere to go anyway, there's nothing fun to do." ”

Jonah reached into his pocket and removed a few pages of the unnamed book from his pocket and found the third prophecy:

"On 29 October, when the flames fell and the river was polluted, Ayala said to her partner: 'I will wait elsewhere'. ”

The next fourth prophecy is even more puzzling:

"In the place of eternal radiance, Ayala and Gamariel met for the first time, and they embraced each other and spoke the words of the saints. ”

"No date, no place. Now, I don't have a clue at all. Jonah read it a few times and spread his hands.

Elliot twisted his chin, "Gamariel." This is the name that appears in the second prophecy. ”

"Yes. Jonah admitted.

"On the 6th of October, Gamaliel descended from heaven with all the chosen pagans. Ayala couldn't see him, Ayala couldn't hear him, but he lived in the palace of bones and didn't panic. 'Do not go near the mirror,' Gamaliel advised. ”

"At that time, for some reason, you refused to explain the content of this prophecy, Lord Jonah. The Rose Knight said.

Jonah felt a palpitation. Yes, the demon that came and went without a trace, although it has not appeared again in the past few days, this secret cannot be told to anyone. He struggled to speak, "I'm sorry, Eli...... I...... There are still reasons that cannot be explained. ”

"Of course. "Everyone has secrets that they have to keep. In short, the fourth prophecy is a kind of re-enactment of the second, and whatever happened then will happen again in a different form at some point in the future. ”

Jonah was stunned, and a chill welled up in his heart.

The second prophecy is the moment when the demon appears in the world to control his body, so does "Ayala and Gamariel's first encounter" mean that the demon will appear in his real form and confront him face to face?

The astrologer's apprentice pondered with mixed thoughts. Sibi yawned, stretched wide, and said, "Boring, I don't understand." Sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow, if you don't sleep enough, it's a big disadvantage for beauty, uncle, you should occasionally take care of the skin on your face. ”

Toba rubbed his face with his big hands and said, "I think I have good skin?"

"Hmph, yes, like a wire brush. Sibi said, jumped onto his bed, and suddenly asked, "By the way, which of you has seen Sister Long Ji? ”

"Let's go find her. Roommate, do you want to arrange tomorrow's tactics before going to bed?" the rose knight patted the unicorn on the neck, and the beast paced two steps on the ground.

Toba was confused: "What tactical arrangement?"

Elliott patiently explained: "There is not enough understanding of the task to be carried out tomorrow. Can you explain to us tomorrow's route, battle locations, terrain, formations, attack sequences, entry and exit strategies?"

The Bazelar peasant waved his hand: "Don't mention those, I haven't thought about the most important issues." Why don't you arrange it tomorrow?"

"Okay. Let's rest first, and we'll be back later. Elliott bowed slightly, and the unicorn leaped out of the room and disappeared into the night.

Room A51 fell silent, save for the slight crackling of the brazier.

Jonah tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep. The unknown tomorrow made him feel anxious, and the story told by the Rose Knight just now made him have mixed feelings, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

It didn't take long for Toba to snore.

"Brother, can't you sleep?" asked Sibbi suddenly.

“...... Well. It may be that I slept too long in the previous period. Jonah laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Did Brother Eli tell you about me?" asked Sibby.

Jonah was unprepared for the question, coughing a few times and not answering.

"It's okay, I'm not afraid. The little grasshopper said calmly, "You are all my closest people, so I will confess my past." ”

"Tsibi you......" Jonah began.

"Don't feel sympathy for me, I'm fine now. Sibi said, "Brother, do you want to know why my relationship with my uncle is so good? There are some things that Eli doesn't know. ”

Jonah nodded, then reacted to the fact that they couldn't see each other's movements in the dark, and opened his mouth to say, "Yes, but if you don't want to say it, don't say it." ”

"Rest assured. You're just as grinding and chirping as your uncle. Sibi said, "Very simple things can be said in three or two sentences." More than a year ago, in the winter, Zawi's cavalry broke up my mercenary group, and I and a few of my companions were chased south from the royal city by the Assassins sent by the tyrants, and one by one my companions died at the hands of the Assassins.

The river swept me downstream, and if it weren't for my uncle's appearance, I would have bled to death, or drowned, or died of hypothermia, and I don't know what fatal reason I would have died first. My uncle was on a mission on the shore of Cherry Ferry, and when he saw me in the river, he immediately jumped into the river to save me. ”

Jonah was stunned and said, "Down to the river? That's a Kolombo taboo!"

"That's right," said the grasshopper, "the Colombo river patrollers immediately opened fire on him, and the battle was very fierce."

When my uncle finally returned to the room with me, who had almost frozen to ice, he had seven throwing guns stuck in his body, each of which had penetrated deep into his muscles and injured his internal organs. He single-handedly wiped out the entire detachment of river rangers, and entered the protective area of Cherry Ferry before the arrival of the Colombo army, and Daddy took over the rest.

That night, my uncle took me in his arms and sat in the middle of the room, greeting the waves of attackers. Once the combat effectiveness of the A-class tenants dropped, the enemies swarmed like flies that smelled of rot, and the uncle didn't dare to pull out those spear heads, nor did he dare to let go of me, and waved his fist with one hand, and lasted all night.

It wasn't until sunrise that my body temperature gradually rose, and I slowly woke up, and when I woke up, I saw his big face blocking the sunlight, and asked me if I was okay and wanted to eat something. It's as easy to say as if those seven guns were stuck in someone else's body.

He saved my life, but he almost lost his own. Mr. Hachime later said that those seven wounds were seven fatal injuries for a normal person, and even a person with a super strong physique like Uncle had been hovering on the line of life and death for ten hours.

Later, when I asked my uncle why he had jumped into the river to save me, the fool said that I looked like his daughter, who had died shortly after birth, and that when he saw me, it was like seeing his daughter. I'm older than him!

Later, when he was recuperating in his room, I sat in the middle of the room and drew my bow and arrows to protect him for three days and nights. Later, I didn't know why, so I called him uncle, and he called me Little Grasshopper. The two of us are a great fit, and to me, he's like a generous, kind, nagging dad I've never had.

Then one day, we went on a mission around Cherry Ferry and saw W among the powerless. I recognized him at a glance, my father, the damned northern elf Vorstar, he was exactly the same as he was back then, not the slightest change. I immediately shot an arrow with all my might, and as soon as he saw it, he recognized me, and froze there, not dodging.

That arrow was the most vicious attack in the archery of the Northern Elves, the arrows cut off the veins and tendons of his left arm, cutting off his life, and from that day on, Mr. W could no longer draw his longbow and release the arrows, but could only continue to fight with his sword, - for a Northern Elf, a bit ironic, isn't it?

My father didn't fight back, and I tried so many times that I couldn't kill the man who hurt my grandfather, my mother, and me. After returning to the room, I cried and told my uncle about my past experience, but I didn't expect that his experience was actually related to my bloodline. Sutherland, that damn Sutherland.

Uncle didn't blame me, 'After all, you don't have that last name,' he said.

I asked my uncle what I would do if one day I had a curse on my body and it would take a woman from a mushroom farm to save my life. The uncle said in his usual odious and gentle tone, 'I'll talk about it on that day.' I know he's too kind to hate what he's supposed to hate.

That's it, that's it. Any questions?"

Jonah was silent for a long time, "...... Not only uncle, but what do you hate for Mr. W?"

"I hate him. But if one day, I am about to die, the person I want to see most before I die is still him. The little grasshopper sighed. "It's okay for me. -- So be it. So be it. ”
