Volume 1: The End of the Outlaw 9
The next morning, I was woken up by a few hissing noises outside the house. When I opened my eyes, Ellie snuggled up to me with a happy look on her face, hugging my arm.
"Ellie, I seem to have to go."
She hugged me tighter.
"I'm going to get better, I'm feeling better now. Uh, thank you. As soon as the words came out, it seemed inappropriate.
She didn't seem to care. Looking at her face, I suddenly felt a sense of reluctance.
The sound of horses' hooves outside the house was a bit cluttered.
Getting up and opening the door, Tim and his party waited outside the courtyard on horseback. Seeing me open the door, Will whistled at me.
"You're getting better soon." She draped her cloak lightly over my shoulders, handed me a package, and looked me in the eye.
Holding her soft little hand, I didn't want to be separated from her.
"Yes, don't worry. You ...... too. Take care. "At this moment, I really want to hold her face and give her a deep kiss. In the end, I didn't dare to kiss in front of this group of people.
I was a little afraid to ride a horse before, but the moment I stepped on the stirrups, I felt familiar with the road when I got on the horse.
I glanced back at Ellie, who was standing in the doorway, and my heart suddenly tingled. Is this love...... I don't know, but I really don't want to leave her at the moment, maybe Mason really loves her too.
The five of us walked unhurriedly on the path in the woods. The forest was already a little chilly in the early morning, and the crisp air cleared my mind.
"Hey, Mason-sama, congratulations." The guy named Will said to me with a wicked laugh.
"Yes, Mason-sama, did you not beat the spring breeze last night?" Said the guy with the sound of the urn.
I don't really like this voice, I feel panicked, and I still don't know his name.
"The Rock Mason is so shy." Tim said with a smile as he turned his head.
"Nothing, you're thinking too much." I say. "What are you laughing at? Not really, I'm hurt. "That's a bit of a bad rebuttal.
"We know you're injured in the head, and when we found you, we only found that you had a head injury, a back injury, a hand and foot injury, and your sledgehammer was intact." Will said.
"Thank you so much for remembering to help me check out there at that time." I snorted.
I saw Tim look back at me...... I can't tell you what it feels like.
"I don't think I know her at all, and I'm not the kind of seed horse I want to fall in love with a woman whenever I see her!" I quibble.
"Tsk, Lord Mason doesn't recognize anyone when he puts his pants on!" The fat man hummed like a pig.
"Oh, you can't say that, Lord Mason. I see that the two of you are affectionate just now, you and me, I feel that you are both reluctant to let go, not like you said. Looks like you worked hard last night! It's okay, Lord Mason, it's okay to admit it. Will said.
"I also don't feel like you're the kind of guy who doesn't recognize people when you put your pants up." Tim laughed.
"Let's not talk about last night, what did I have to do with her before?" I felt like I could ask that question.
Tim looked back at me again.
"It's okay." Will said. "Hmm...... No, since last night, you've had her. She finally got you, too. It's also a blessing in disguise, and it seems that she cares about you very much in the past two days. ”
"What the hell is this? Do I have any other stories with her? "I want to know more from their mouths.
"It's a good thing that you think about it yourself, maybe you can remember, maybe you can't remember, right?" Tim chimed in.
I hate playing pantomimes.
"I really can't remember. I really had amnesia. Including who I am. What exactly are we doing? What are you going to do? Or what has happened now. Tim, Will, huh...... Your name? He looked back at the loud guy and the emaciated guy next to him.
"Thank you for forgetting me." The skinny guy said, "My name is Filip." ”
I looked at the fat man with the sound of the urn again.
"Carl." He said.
"Maybe you should cure your rhinitis." I said to him. The nasal voice of the guy with a breathless nose is really uncomfortable for me. He rolled his eyes in response.
"Tim, where are we going?" I asked.
"Go to the North Forest District of Donggu, you disappeared from there," he looked at me and said, "We are going to choose some big trees in the forest area these days, and we should hurry up." Part of it was to build the eastern barracks, and part of it was to send it to Stormwind to repair the palace. The progress of the barracks was so slow that the king ordered it to be completed before the snow fell during the Winter Veil. But we have not been paid, and even the tools and materials and funds for our work have been cut off, and the workers are quite dissatisfied. Didn't Mistress Earley tell you about it? ”
I shook my head.
"Mason, your brother has a relationship with the court, and I have mentioned this to you before, and now we really can't support it anymore." Tim said.
"Does this have anything to do with him?"
"I don't know."
"How long have I been here?" I asked him, "What am I doing here?" ”
"Oh my God......" Carl made a pig sound.
"Honestly, Mason, when we found out you weren't there, we thought you were ...... Escaped...... Haha, alas! ”
He has something to say.
"I've really lost my memories now, can you tell me more details?"
"It's been three months since you arrived at the barracks site, and we've been working on the barracks site, and we only received news from the palace in the last week that wood is needed to repair the palace, and you took us to the northern forest area to pick wood. The palace needed huge timber in all four hugs, and alas, we searched for two days, but we could not find such a large tree. We're very short of manpower right now. The lumberjacks in Donggu Town have all mobilized to look for timber these days. ”
"Why such a big tree? Four hugs? "Actually, I don't know what a four-hug is, but it seems to be a big tree.
"Build a garden for the little prince's birthday."
"Repair the garden? The little prince? "I seem to feel a little bit of royal luxury." Who is the king? Repair a garden for your birthday? ”
"Varian." His words made me prick up my ears.
"Varian, well, it's Varian Ureon?" I exclaimed. "The king is Varian Ureon?"
"No, it's Ryan. Repair a garden for Varian. ”
"The king is not dead?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Varian, Varian...... What time is it? Haven't the orcs invaded yet? ”
"Huh? What? "Tim didn't seem to understand what I was saying." You mean the trolls, right? We call them trolls, although they do look like monsters. Twelve years ago, however, they were defeated by the king and the archmage. The old king was killed in battle. Now it's His Majesty King Lane. Tim said.
I seem to know a little bit about who the archmage he is talking about. I can tell the difference between trolls and orcs.
"How old is Varian?"
"Four." Tim said.
"Have you seen those trolls?" I asked Tim.
"No, my home was originally in the west. The trolls did not attack the western regions. Tim said.
"I've seen it." Fili interjected suddenly. "I've seen trolls, and more than a decade ago, my home was originally in Raven Mountain in the South Elwyn Forest. When the trolls invaded, we fled to Stormwind for refuge, but even Stormwind was besieged, and King Baratheon was killed in the siege. It was very tragic to listen to them, and many people died. Trolls are tall, and their berserkers can kill soldiers who can easily kill us. ”
"South Alwyn Forest? Raven Mountain? Where is that? ”
"This is the North Alwyn Forest, and there is a very wide river in the middle of the forest, and across the river is the South Alwyn Forest. Raven Mountain is a ...... in the northwestern part of South Alwyn Forest Uh, a hill. My house is right there. ”
"What's your hometown like now? Is it dim? ”
"Dimm? More than ten years have passed since the war, and I have never returned. However, it is said that it has already been rebuilt. Brightwood is now more bustling than it used to be. Filip was in his forties, and his old face was full of the ravages of time.
"Brightwood?" I don't remember this place.
"Well, it was just a small town, and it is said that it is very prosperous now, and it is the only place to go to the Guardian Tower."
"Didn't it before?"
"It used to be, but now the dignitaries of the Stormwind Kingdom like to go to that tower to meet or do something. That's not something that ordinary people like me can know. That town was the last big place to stay there. ”
The Guardian's High Tamo is not Karazan? Isn't that the place that leads to Karazan called Nighttown? Nightshade used to be called Brightwood? That means that the South Elwyn Forest isn't a gloomy twilight now. And the orcs did not invade either.
Probably already know what time it is. But it doesn't matter what year it is, it has to be that question......
"Who is Gragg?" I asked.
Everyone was silent.
Tim ...... Will? They didn't seem to want to say anything, and Fili tilted his head to the side. Cal? I turned my head to him.
I don't know if my gaze is lethal. Tim ...... You should know this better than I do. "This fat guy is a good kicker, what a nasty guy.
Mason ...... That's what I learned about later. Several of us were in the northeast wooded area that day. And then you disappear. Except for that dead dog...... We've been looking for you for a day. But by the time he arrived in town, Grag had already been beheaded and sent to patrol the town's streets...... It is said that it is now inserted on the construction site, and it will be the next day when you are found...... You were covered in wounds. ”
"Why was he beheaded?"
I don't know the specifics, but Earley just said that he didn't meet the deadline...... Uhh or something. ”
"What does he do?"
"Foreman for the construction of the eastern barracks...... But now it's you. ”
"What did he do?"
"I don't know ......"
"What about me? I did it...... I'm there...... Uh, what the hell happened to the construction site? ”
"The project is overdue, and this is the second time."
"Is this the reason why he was beheaded? So what to do? Do we have any documents? Didn't the monk tell you to pick up the papers last night? ”
"Earley didn't sign it, he said that the case was not closed, and he couldn't do this kind of thing. But he farted and said he would report it. I'm going to say Earley, the bastard, will get this out of the way! Tim gritted his teeth.
"Do I have a conflict with Earley?"
"I don't know...... This is your private matter. The man sent by the royal city announced the sentence, presumably by Earley, and then took his head to the town, but happened to meet Fili, who came to report the crime. He is currently the supreme governor of Donggu Town. ”
"Why do you want to take your head to town?"
"I don't know ......"
"How's my relationship with him?"
"Like brothers...... Well, we're all brothers. ”
Tim's eyes didn't seem to be sad, was it a pity? Or...... This look ...... I can't read it.
Maybe I should take a trip to Stormwind!
