The sourness in his stomach made Sha Dou feel very uncomfortable. He forced himself to hold back the nausea and raised his head again. But he found that Einstein opposite was looking at him coldly.
Is this your plan...?
I didn't expect...I always regarded you as my best friend!
I always thought...we will never change...we can always be brothers...
But you... have changed...
Einstein, you have become a little bit unaware of you. You have become so strange and so disgusting!
Shadou's eyes were also cold towards Einstein's indifference. He tried his best to recover, sat down, and ate the food on his plate without saying a word. But the food tasted like feces, emitting a sour and rotten smell.
This supper ended like this. Sha Dou pushed open the plate without even saying hello and turned back to his room. He no longer wanted to see the person he called "friend". When he clinged to the powerful for power, this person was no longer his friend, and never!
Back in the room, Shadou walked to the desk and took out Kaka's application form. He just glanced at it and mercilessly tore the application form to pieces. No matter what happens in the future, it is in his hands, in his Shadou Gangdaluf's hands, and he must not let a person who relies on relationships become a knight! This is his loyalty to the late emperor and his responsibility as the leader of the First Knights!
Night comes again...
The gray sky is as dull as ever.
The originally out of reach of clouds is now so low that it can cover the upper half of the white castle. It seems that even God's mood has become very bad.
Sha Dou leaned against the window and rubbed his sword with oil - God's punishment.
This sword was given to him by the late emperor and was a symbol of the leader of the First Knights. This sword accompanied him through life and death countless times, and also saved Einstein countless times...
Saved him...number of times...
Wiping the sword, Shadou's originally excited mood slowly calmed down...
The originally full of dissatisfaction and disgust disappeared invisibly under the clear luster of the sword body.
A faint smile appeared again on the corner of his cold mouth, recalling his experience of making trouble with Einstein when he was a child.
His age is two months older than him.
When I was a child, I often played the role of an older brother. I took care of Einstein, who often caused trouble. Sometimes I would scold him a few words and then take him with me to apologize to the beaten child.
Compared to his childhood, Einstein's life experience is even more miserable. When he first came to the orphanage, his body seemed weaker and thinner...
People have the idea of climbing up, don’t they?
Didn’t you make such a vow when I was lying shoulder to shoulder with Shadou, and another person, three of you lie shoulder to shoulder on the roof of the orphanage to look at the stars?
He wants to be a big shot... he wants to use his own power to sweep away the injustice of this world.
To this end, he hopes that he can climb higher and become a big man who makes bad people frightened when they hear his name, and help other weak civilians.
Thinking of this, Sha Dou, who was wiping the sword... laughed.
At this moment, he suddenly felt that his anger had no meaning. Looking back on his oath that day, he suddenly realized that he was not the biggest obstacle to becoming a big shot?
Whether as a friend or as a brother, he has the responsibility and obligation to help Einstein realize this dream. He has snatched his things for too long, so he should give up the position of the Knight Commander to him.
The sword, upright.
Sha Dou's face, which contrasted with the sword, was filled with a perfect smile like a brother.
He inserted his sword into the sword sac and breathed a long sigh. Next, he would start planning the delivery and tell Einstein that he did not hate him and hoped that he could become an excellent leader and a pillar of the country of death.
"If it were you, you would agree, right?"
The sand dou took out the pendant and opened it. The red-haired girl in the palace dress still showed a gentle smile and watched all this silently...
——
"Sir, have you slept?"
Hearing the knock on the door, Shadou put away the hanging decoration and turned to the door.
"Who, what's the matter."
"Your servant, sir. Since you didn't eat much at dinner, would you like to ask what snacks you need to prepare?"
“………I don’t need it.”
"Yes, sir. But in order to prevent someone from saying that our bucks are not well-careed, I hope you can give some instructions so that our bucks can fulfill their landlords."
Sha Dou doesn't like being served by others, so he doesn't bother with the servants during the stay. But now that he figured it out, he feels a little hungry, so he opened the door and asked the male servant outside to push the dining cart in.
"What do you need? Sir. Here are cheeses from the north, freshly baked sweets, and various pastries carefully prepared by our chief dim sum chef. Of course, this is a black tea that relies on the desert climate to blow Saudi Arabia. I hope you like it."
Seeing the male servant introducing him there, Sha Dou closed his eyes and sighed softly. Finally, he swept over the snacks, aimed at a pumpkin pie, and took out a piece, ate it while thinking.
"Sir, you have such a good vision. This pumpkin pie is our chef's specialty. I hope you can forget all your unhappiness in the delicious food and spend every day happily."
The male servant smiled, always maintaining a perfect smile.
While eating the pumpkin pie, Sha Dou smiled. He looked at the pie in his hand and slowly said, "The skills are indeed good. It would be better if I could add a little more rose petals... But please thank the chef for letting me taste such delicious food."
The male servant smiled and said, "I am really grateful for your praise. It is our greatest honor to satisfy you. But it must be inferior to the skills of a Miss Hegette in your country. Even the priests praised this lady's pumpkin pie."
The male servant just said something unintentionally, but this simple sentence made Sha Dou suddenly throw away the pumpkin pie, grab his collar, and pull him up.
"You... knew the name from there."
Sha Dou's eyes were cold, and the look of the male servant was obviously not right.
The male servant obviously did not expect Sha Dou's reaction to be so fierce. He said in fear: "Yes...yes...! Actually... it was when the villain gave snacks to the priest, the priest said...!"
Sha Dou is even more unbelievable. Who is Charlton? Why did he mention this name inexplicably? Therefore, he raised the male servant higher, pressed him hard against the wall, and said in a gloomy voice-
"You lie. If you lie, I will kill you."
"No! The villain definitely didn't lie! When the villain went to deliver snacks, the priest seemed to be looking at some documents! Just as the villain put the dining cart and was about to come out, the priest suddenly smiled at the documents and said, "Hergat...? Oh, is it the girl who is very good at making pumpkin pie? I didn't expect that it was only now to find out.' The villain... The villain thought that the priest liked pumpkin pie very much, so... so we asked our chef to make some..."
I'm afraid that the male servant would never have thought about what kind of uproar the words he said now had in Sha Dou's heart.
Hudger...Hdgerger?
What happened to her...had you found out?!
Suddenly, Sha Dou threw the male servant to the ground, and immediately rushed out of the room like a wind and walked towards Charlton's office. He secretly held the pendant in his arms and came to the office door. Without waiting for the inside to agree, he immediately pushed open the door.
Behind the desk, Charlton was sitting holding documents. But in the fireplace beside him, the flames were burning. Looking at the beating flames, Shadou's heart suddenly became tangled!
Burned? What is the thing that is going to burn?! What exactly is written and what secrets are related to? It is necessary to deal with the behavior of "burning"?!
The loud bang shocked Charlton inside. He stood up immediately, but before he could speak, Shadou had already rushed to him, snatched the documents in his hand, and checked them quickly and carefully. But soon he found that there was no information he wanted. He immediately threw down the documents, turned to Charlton and said coldly: "What's going on with my sister's... incident."
Charlton was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing and said, "What, this is the case? Isn't it the same as before?"
Before he finished speaking, Shadou's giant sword suddenly crossed Charlton's neck. Charlton was shocked by Shadou's actions again, but this time he was different from usual. He immediately calmed down and said, "Shadou. Gundalouf, do you want to commit the following crime?!"
Sha Dou was also anxious, but he would never forget that he was a soldier in the country of Death. No matter how anxious he was now, he finally understood where he was now, and had to withdraw his sword and whisper in a low voice.
"Sir, please... tell me..."
Charlton tidied up his collar and sneered, "It seems you have finally figured it out. That's it, what's the benefit of going against us? In fact, you are not bad. As long as you speak well, we are still able to communicate well~~~~"
Sha Dou lowered his head and responded silently.
"But... the characters involved in this matter are too important. After all, for so many years, you can't let me speak out in such a place. So, you go back first. When I arrive in Venice, I will find an opportunity to talk to you. Now, you can go back first."
