Chapter 218: Rutgers Doesn't Like to Hold Grudges (4k)

Rogers moved the bench and sat in the shade of a cool tree.

At his feet there was a large bunch of palm fruits, and he plucked one of them, delicately picked the skin with his fingers, revealing the golden flesh, and brought it directly to his mouth.

The sweet and sour taste permeated his mouth, giving his taste buds a taste he had never experienced before, and he had thought that the fruit would be mostly sour, perhaps because he had given it a little spirituality when he created this oasis, which gave it this unique texture and taste.

Looking up at the green foliage overhead, the sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, filling with a faint glow.

A gentle breeze blows in the shade of the trees, bringing the fresh fragrance of the leaves, and the constant singing of birds and the sound of insects and the breeze create an idyllic atmosphere.

"I thought that only believers would come, but I didn't expect so many living beings to live here."

Rogers listened to the melodious tunes around him, turned his head to look at Rufia who walked out, and asked curiously, "Why are you also kicked out?" ”

"Alice woke up, and Alina wanted to talk to her, probably because she still treated me like a child, and didn't want me to listen to it more."

Rufia pouted, and sat down on the small wicker chair that Rogers had conjured up for her, and she held her chin with her hands, and muffled herself with some dissatisfaction.

Rogers glanced sideways over Rufia, looked at her immature appearance, and chuckled, "It's really not that big." ”

"Hmph." Rufia's brows furrowed slightly, her mouth pursed, revealing a lovely gesture of grievance.

But when Rogers rubbed her head, this grievance quickly dissipated and turned into enjoyment, and after squinting and humming for a while, she raised her eyes to look at Rogers beside her, and asked, "Will I also go and tell the priests who have been brought into the oasis about to tell the Jade Record?" ”

"Depending on your interests, these things don't matter now." Rogers withdrew his hand and replied with a smile.

Although he received Alina's [Foreknowledge Bonus] and Rufia's ability to control dreams, after the deed was completed, he turned to let them regain their original power in the form of blessings.

Hearing this, Rufia bowed her head slowly, and then said tentatively and carefully, "Then can I go to my father and mother's dreams to find them?" ”

Rogess's expression suddenly froze, he looked at the longing light in the girl's eyes, his mood slowly became heavy, and then he squeezed out a gentle smile, and replied affirmatively: "Of course, if you want, I can also take you home at any time, now I don't need to worry about anything." ”

It was only then that he suddenly realized that both Alina and Alice had occasionally confided in him some thoughts or troubles, but Rufia had never had them.

The child just followed quietly, and was very obedient no matter what he did, without the slightest complaint.

It wasn't until now that everything was settled and everything was okay that she dared to put forward some of her own small ideas, and she was so cautious.

"You have a lot of things you don't want me to hear, a lot of things you don't want me to understand, and you don't even talk to me about your troubles.

"But I understand that the reason for all of this is that you don't want me to worry about it, and I'm glad that my dreaming power can help you so that you don't seem so useless.

"Otherwise, it will just become a useless burden, and it will make me even more uncomfortable, so you don't need to feel guilty, I have contributed the least, but I have received the same blessing.

"That's why I owe it to me, and I should be grateful to you and Alina."

Rufia seemed to sense Rogess's thoughts, the sun shining on her delicate face, shining with an agar-like sheen, and her slightly curved eyebrows revealed a sweet smile.

The breeze stirred her fluffy blonde hair, forming a soft halo behind her, as if to accentuate her sensible and gentle at the moment.

Rogers raised his hand and rubbed his forehead gently, looking at the dappled light and shadow in the shade of the trees, as if infected by Rufia's smile, and chuckled.

"Although I haven't mastered the lucky bonus, I have been able to meet you along the way with luck that may not be brought by the lucky bonus."

His face was full of emotion, and his tone was also grateful, and he couldn't help but speak out.

"But if I go to see them, I don't know if I will be taught a lesson by them, and I don't know if I will be asked to return to them and stay, what will I do when the time comes......

Rufia cupped her cheeks, and her face turned to a look of distress, as if she didn't know what to do.

"It's okay, don't worry about this, I'll give them a reason they can't refuse."

Rogers peeled off a palm fruit and handed it to Rufia, promising that nothing would be a big deal.

Squeak –

There was a dull grinding sound of the wooden door behind him, and as the door slowly opened, Alina stepped out of it, walked to his side, and looked down at the sermon, "Go in." ”

Rogers nodded slightly at Alina, then got up and walked into the room.

Alice sat upright on the bed, like a bouquet of flowers blown by the spring breeze, exuding a pure and soft atmosphere in the quiet room.

She leaned forward, her clothes loose, her hands touching the sheets, and her gaze at Rogers with indescribable complexity.

"You don't really have to worry too much about the catastrophe of the world, just play it at random, or even make a few symbolic poses."

Rogers explained as he sat down on the edge of the bed.

Although his bestial symbol could not be weak, it would be three hundred and thirty-three years later, when neither he nor Alice would know how high they would grow.

From then on, calamity would no longer be a real calamity to them, but an insignificant term.

"Is this the truth?" Alice asked, with a look of hesitation, after a few moments of silence.

"Of course it's the truth, when did I tell a lie? I'm a man who never lies. Rogers seemed to be quite wronged by this questioning, and he spoke very seriously to prove himself.

"You didn't tell a lie, but you told the truth...... Alice pursed her lips slightly, and kept fiddling with the sheets with her fingers, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

It's just that when she saw Rogess's pensive appearance, she immediately turned around and said, "Of course, I must believe you!" ”

"I won't disappoint you either." Rogers concentrated, staring at Alice in front of him with resolute and focused gaze, and every word seemed extraordinarily calm and resolute.

"It's the first time I've seen you so solemn." Alice couldn't help but cover her mouth and smile softly when she saw Rogers like this.

"If solemnity can be useful......" Rogers shrugged his shoulders slightly, and was about to say something more, when at that moment, Alice leaned forward again, her arms tightly wrapped around him.

Tears silently slipped from the corners of the girl's eyes, her hands pressed against Rogers' back, but her smile was full of happiness and satisfaction.

Rogers reached out for a hug as well, silently responding to her hug.

At this moment, it seemed that only the communication between the two worlds was left between them, and everything seemed so real and within reach.

It wasn't long before Rogers noticed the figure standing at the window, his white eyelashes trembling slightly, his shadow covering his amber eyes, as if he was trying to suppress some violent emotion.

Rogers thought that there was no problem with this world for him, but the reality of the moment told him that there still seemed to be.

After a long time, Alice reluctantly let go of her embrace, and wiped her fingers from the tears under her eyes: "I seem to have had a long, long dream, and I haven't fully woken up yet, you go and go about your own business first, I may have to slow down." ”

Rogers bowed slightly, then got up and stretched his muscles, and walked slowly outside, glancing at Alina's cold expression, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"I don't care about special circumstances, or do you think I'm the kind of person with a small belly?" Alina glanced at Rogus and spoke in a flat tone.

"Of course not, my Alina must be the most generous." Rogers sneered, not touching his head too much, and then pulled a piece of paper from his sleeve pocket and looked at it.

Alina looked curiously, only to see a person's name outlined on it.

"Fredeke III, Liravina, Susimita, Dagbert, Marcello, Malacombe, Peña......"

Except for Emperor Frederick III and the succubus Liravina, as well as the great magicians of the Three Sages school or close to the Three Sages, such as Susimita, Dagbert, and Marcello, as well as Malacombe, a journalist who had interviewed Rogers and had been in the depths of disarray, she could not remember where she had seen many other names.

"This Peña wrote "Rogeth Breed's Destruction of World Culture", and this Sberola, who wrote "The Road to the Rise of the Demon King", and this ...... named Garrod"

Rogers saw Alia's doubts and began to tell them seriously about the slanderous sins they had committed.

The more Alina listened, the more speechless she became, if the royal family and the Three Sages School were indeed worth remembering, but the succubus that had been suppressed by Rogers, and those reporters from the Imperial Capital Daily, made her a little incomprehensible.

Especially Malacombe, the other party was choked by Rogers when they first met, and then he just left a cruel word before leaving, but he didn't expect this to be remembered by him at this moment.

"You are a god now, an existence that stands at the top of the world and has great power......

Alina was silent for a long time, but finally spoke up to give a reminder.

"I understand, so those reporters can leave it to Derick to be beaten up, and Liravina's words will be investigated a little, and I will only go to Fredek III and the Grand Magicians myself.

"As you said, I have ascended to God now, how can God hold grudges, before I start to enjoy the happiness of God's life, now take care of all these trivial matters.

"I'll leave for a while now, and I should be able to come back in the evening, and if it's too late, I won't have to wait for dinner."

Rogers responded kindly that as long as these grudges were resolved, then there was no need to remember them again.

As the words fell, he said goodbye to Alina and Rufia, and his figure dissipated like a bubble in an instant.

"This guy ......" Alina raised her hand and rubbed the corners of her forehead, and whispered in a complicated tone.

……

The scorching heat of summer gripped most of the imperial capital inexorably, making people feel as if they were in a furnace, and the air was filled with a scorching smell, as if the coke was unleashing unbearable heat.

The sun overhead scorched the earth mercilessly, and in the face of this steamer-like heatwave, people revealed all kinds of tiredness and weariness, as if every movement required great effort.

In the midst of this forced lazy atmosphere, a piece of news that had to cheer people up quickly swept through the vast empire.

Frederick III abdicated and officially passed the throne to the first prince, Pertus.

There are many rumors among the people, some say that the old emperor was betrayed by the ancestors and lost the recognition of the ancestors, and some say that the first prince's ability was too dazzling and he took over the power early, and the old emperor was forced to pass on the throne.

But most of the nobles in high positions knew that it all came from a nightmare, a nightmare that would strike Fredek III every night.

Because of this nightmare, Fredek III was at first depressed and unable to concentrate on political affairs, but slowly, his whole body gradually became full of nervousness.

He often lashed out at his attendants over trivial matters, spiking gibberish several times in the Imperial Diet, or screaming in horror at a minister.

In the end, he even made a move to dissolve the parliament, tried to forcibly centralize power, and arbitrarily promulgated the curfew policy of the imperial capital.

A series of actions exhausted many nobles, even the great nobles of the imperial faction could not see Fredek III continue to mess around, so they collectively planned the agenda of forcing the abdication.

Perhaps Fredek III still had some sense, and the advice of the first prince played a role, so that the succession to the throne did not set off too violent turmoil.

Now Fredek III locked himself in the depths of the court alone, and only the first prince could see him a few times on a daily basis.

In addition to Fredek III, the wizarding world has also noticed that the spirits of several great magicians have appeared in various ways.

Some of them were full of anxiety and uneasiness, and began to frantically build up the defensive circle of their own wizard towers; Some daily thinking seems to be very chaotic, and they can't even explain the basic logic well; Some seem to have ended their lives directly because of some inexplicable events.

Linking the faction to which these great magicians belonged, as well as what happened to Fredek III, the world can't help but think of the name of the person full of legends and taboos.
