Chapter 220: Sacrifice
Slightly gray-haired Proudi. Pera looked at Roman with a serious expression and didn't ask why, just nodded silently.
He was a native of Byam, whom Roman's father had helped when he was an adventurer, and later with the retirement of Roman's father, Prodi followed as an assistant and housekeeper, and watched Roman grow up as a child.
Until Roman's father died, Roman, who had no intention of running it, only left this small manor, and he chose to stay, rejected Roman's proposal to let him retire with peace of mind, and became the steward of this small manor and stayed here.
Roman walked around the manor for a short time, and then set off for the Baiam cemetery with the old Pera, who had prepared the carriage.
As the carriage slowly advanced, Roman saw a cemetery with a flat and soothing terrain and a backdrop of woods.
This is the official place specially prepared for outsiders such as the Rune and Fenerport who have settled and ventured here.
Roman got out of the carriage, held a box, and walked slowly, behind him was the old butler Pera, whose hair was a little gray, but his steps were still firm.
Coming to the familiar place in his memory, Roman stopped in front of two tombstones standing side by side.
Here are his parents buried. The location was relatively remote, and his mother liked to be quiet when she was alive.
Roman looked at old Pera behind him.
He took out a bottle of unlabeled red wine from the wooden box, handed it to Roman, and then stepped back, leaving it to Roman.
Roman uncorked the bottle and stared at the tombstone in front of him.
"Although I haven't met you, the 'Black Snake' you gave me saved me several times in danger, so it stands to reason that I should come and see you."
Roman thought quietly in his heart and did not speak.
"Rune doesn't seem to have a habit of spilling wine at the grave, and I don't know if Fursack has one."
"I've already avenged you, I brought the head of the 'living corpse' Jason here, and I cut it off with my own hands."
"Rest assured, he died full of pain."
"Along the way, I kept freezing this head, for fear that it would rot and feel like a pervert."
"You can sleep in the kingdom of the goddess, and I will be roman. Calpo's identity lives well. ”
"Your teachings, the influence of memories, and my own personality have made me go and do something meaningful, you can rest assured."
"Thanks to those integrated memories, I have a lot less sense of detachment, and I can live well in this world."
Roman raised his head and took a large sip of wine directly into the bottle, then spilled the rest of the wine in front of the tomb.
"May the Goddess bless."
He whispered, tapping a crimson moon on his chest.
Then, in a silent daze, black and orange flames suddenly burst out from the still unsightly head in the storage box, burning quietly.
As the head turned to ashes in the flames, Roman slowly left the cemetery, leaving only puffs of green smoke floating in the air, as if to tell something.
On the way back to the center of Byam, Roman looked out the window of the carriage.
The manor makes up for it, there are many plants, people come and go along the way, the streets crisscross and crisscross, and in the distance you can see merchant ships and passenger ships moored in the harbor, towering chimneys emitting black smoke, and huge sail masts, just like an oil painting, full of vigorous vitality and vitality.
For the next few days, Roman returned to his familiar state of comfort, and without thinking about anything, he was in the middle of the manor, served by servants, and had all kinds of good food and wine.
If it weren't for the great danger lurking in this world, Roman would even think that such a comfortable life would be good.
On the outskirts of a big city, buy a manor, be a manor, or perhaps buy some land in the countryside......
In the thoughts of Roman's salted fish, time flies by.
After a few days, Roman, feeling guilty, came out of his comfortable life and traveled to the city of Baiam, where he found some bars and searched for news from the five seas.
After that, I plan to go to Olavi Island and look for Sothos. Jan, tell him that he has succeeded in taking revenge.
As soon as he entered Byam's bar, Roman felt that he was completely different from himself in the manor.
The hustle and bustle inside, the loud shouts, all kinds of swear words, and the swaying drunkards pulled Roman to the sea in one fell swoop, allowing him to regain his identity as an adventurer.
It's still good in the bar, all of them are talented, and they speak well.
Roman looked at the sailor who was bragging loudly with a wine glass on one side, and then at the two strong men in the corner who were already scuffling......
That's right.
Roman, who was inexplicably happy, came to the bar, expertly ordered a beer, and sat down.
For Roman, there may be some adventure in his bones, and he is very comfortable with this kind of sea bar environment.
Especially after his own strength can ensure his own safety, this kind of occasion makes him even more interesting.
Here you can hear all kinds of information, from the five seas, from all over the islands, and even from various land powers, their overseas colonies, and all regions.
Collect true and false news, the military of various countries, various churches, major pirate generals and pirate kings.
There are also many adventurers who recruit members here, share their adventures, and release some news intentionally or unintentionally when they are drunk.
For example, after sitting for a while, Roman had already heard two messages that interested him.
One was said "accidentally" by a mediocre-looking young man after he was drunk.
In the east of the Moby Dick Sea, in the eastern part of the Gargas Islands, sailing into the depths of the Sunia Sea, the crew of a whaling ship salvaged a wreck, which was not completely salvaged due to tools, but the superficial harvest alone made them tens of thousands of gold pounds.
After hearing about it, many adventurers said that they would organize crews to go there to salvage the sunken ships in order to get rich. Roman's interest in the news was not so much because of the shipwreck, but because of the young man.
He's a little too mediocre.
The adventurers who have been adrift on the sea for a long time have more or less their own characteristics, and the young man is like a "public face", which makes people unable to remember what they look like.
And he also has a little habit of shaking his legs......
It was because of this Roman that he noticed him, and then he heard the news of the "treasure shipwreck" from his mouth.
Roman was actually very skeptical of the veracity of this news, because the sea was far from the safe waterway, and there was no reason for a merchant ship full of valuables to be there......
While Roman was thinking about it, he heard another piece of news that interested him.
