late at night

The third floor of Kai'Sa Lodge.

This is generally a room for the reception of nobles, not only the whole room is spacious and bright, but the four-meter-long silver-inlaid bed in the middle is very luxuriously decorated.

"Squeak... Ga"

This room is good anywhere, but the sound of the door opening is a bit harsh.

Vivien, who was lying groggy on the table, was awakened by the sound of the door opening, and the bumps along the way did make her a little tired.

"Hmm!!"

"Ron, you're back, I've left you dinner."

She jerked her head behind her, and only relaxed when she saw that it was Ron.

Sleepy-eyed, she yawned and pulled out the dinner she had prepared for Ron.

She kept them warm in a cauldron and warmed them up with magic tricks from time to time.

The steaming meal was placed on the wooden table by the mage's hands.

Vivien moved a chair and put a few books on Ron's table, a height meal that was Ron's favorite.

Books are indeed the ladder of progress.

"Well, I'm back."

After replying, Ron landed lightly on the book, slowly enjoying his food.

"Is something going on?"

For the first time, Vivien saw Ron go out in such a hurry, and told her to watch her safety, she thought she was going to fight.

It's almost early in the morning, and she's still wearing a mage robe and carrying the Staff of Ron with her.

"Nothing, I just went to test my guess."

"Uh-huh, it's fine."

Vivien propped her chin in her hands, sleepiness coming back at her, her eyelids sinking involuntarily as if they had been filled with lead.

But her gaze remained at Ron's vague figure and did not look away.

Outside, a little candlelight barely supported the blackness, but the beauty revealed a trace of weakness.

A bright street lamp pulled out a strip of black silk, as if to surround the entire inn, and there were only three floors left in the entire inn, and there was still a trace of blooming light here.

Vivien's supple silver hair rested on her shoulders, and her fair face was beautiful in the moonlight.

"Sleep, I'll have to go tomorrow."

Ron blew out the flickering candlelight and gently laid Vivien into the soft bed.

He himself was looking out the window at the street lamp.

Under coercion and temptation, Monica seems to have destroyed the last support point.

She howled so loudly that she fainted at one point.

There was no way, Ron used Morey's body to deliver some life energy, for fear that she would die suddenly in bed.

Ron muttered as he lost:

"Morey, this is for your good, to accumulate some merit for you, in case you go to the ninth layer of hell, you can suffer less crimes, right?"

Anyway, it's not his own vitality, and Ron really doesn't feel distressed when he uses it.

(The Morey personality that has disappeared: I'll top you XXX)

Ron had been injecting life energy for almost ten years before he stopped, and by this time Morey was already aging like a sixty-year-old man.

You have to give his body a special trim when you go back, so as not to let familiar people notice that something is wrong.

If you return to the royal capital in the form of this old dragon bell.

As you can imagine, anyone who knows Morey will be shocked.

Obviously, he was still a sturdy middle-aged man when he left the royal capital, but when he came back, why did he become an old man who was about to die......

The night is getting darker.

The starry sky was reflected in Ron's indifferent colored pupils.

For the use of threats + rhythm charm against a weak, powerless woman.

Ron didn't feel guilty at all.

He shattered her illusions, but at the same time gave her new hope.

Thanks to Monica's memories.

He had obtained a lot of important information, including the mercenary's final whereabouts.

Monica's Love: Egbert Ken is an agile Silver Mercenary.

He joined a mercenary group called Warriors and took on the role of a scout.

According to Monica's account, one night more than a decade ago, Egbert returned from a temporary departure from a mission and brought with him a verdant leaf.

He said it was picked up in a strange canyon somewhere in the Ibi Great Forest.

The leaf was filled with a strong breath of life, and just picking it up made Egbert feel warm and comfortable.

It reminded him of his lover, Monica.

She was born with a heart condition, and several doctors were incured, and the town's magician said she couldn't do anything.

Egbert thought that the leaves might heal his lover, so he hid it.

He asked the mercenary captain to take his leave, saying that he wanted to go home to see his sick mother, and he would return soon.

The regimental commander agreed to his request, so Egbert rode all the way to the windmill town in only half a month, exhausting the three-headed wildebeest to death.

Eggbert's instincts proved right, and the leaf melted into Monica's skin as soon as it touched it.

The emerald green light enveloped the lover's whole body.

On that day, Monica experienced a sense of relief that she had never felt before, and her whole body felt as if she was soaked in milk, warm.

Although Monica felt a little strange in her chest, it was much better than the previous feeling of colic

Seeing that his lover had managed to get rid of his illness, Egbert cried with joy.

He had spent too many gold coins for his lover's illness, and he was obviously a silver-level powerhouse, but he was too poor to afford a good sword.

His mercenary friends, including his own parents, were all trying to persuade him to leave the god-rejected woman.

"I will not live with treasure, but with her for the rest of my life"

"She's my future wife!"

Since then, no one has spoken to Egbert about the breakup.

But Egbert knew.

It's a miracle that a disease like Monica's one survives to adulthood.

He must desperately earn gold so that he can hire a better healing mage to heal his lover.

But this sudden fall of a leaf changed his fate...

After the two of them warmed up with each other, Egbert told Monica that he was going back to the mercenary group to continue the unfinished mission.

"When I get home, Monica's illness will be cured, and I will definitely ask the best priest in town to marry us."

These were Egbert's last words before leaving.

Then came more than ten years of waiting, even if the news of the annihilation of the entire [Warrior Mercenary Group] came back, it could not stop Monica.

"A bloody love story."

———— from Ron's complaint.

Ron said that he had killed an unknown number of monsters, and his heart was as cold as a dragon's claw.

If you are moved by the story or something, there will be no such thing at all.

"Ibby Forest? Looks like I'm going to have to take some time to go over there. ”

"After all, it's about travel goal three."

"But before leaving, you still have to arrange the back road, there is no kingdom management in that ancient forest, and the demonic beasts grow in it, maybe the legendary demonic beasts and the like will be born."

Ron quietly pondered various options for dealing with accidents when he went out.

If you really met that mercenary in the forest of Ibida, and he hadn't died...

Maybe he will fulfill his promise.

But that possibility is too low, which husband will not come home for more than ten years while alive.

It's just a comfort to Monica.

Yes, Ron can get Monica to take the initiative to speak, and the most important sentence is:

"I'll bring him back."
