Chapter 443: Departure, Dwarf King City!

"Is that so? It turns out it was your wife who did it. No wonder, no wonder..." Rhodes kept mumbling and repeating with his eyes blank, and he didn't know what he was blaming.

"Yes, I like my wife as much as you do."

I smiled slightly and stretched out my hand towards Rhodes.

"Druid Wu Fan."

After listening to my words, Rod's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, staring at me firmly, as if he wanted to penetrate my soul. After a while, he looked back and his expression softened.

"I believe you." He said.

"Necromancer Rod."

The withered right palm came over and held my hand together.

Like an eagle's talons, thin, wrinkled, cold, but very powerful.

Everyone says that the Necromancer is difficult to talk to, but when the Necromancer agrees with you, he is actually a very easy to talk to.

At this moment, I deeply realized this.

The topics we talk about are naturally inseparable from my wife, down to every detail of life.

Rod’s wife has a very touching name, named Stubborn. Just by hearing her name, you can tell she is a beauty. When I said this, Rod showed a proud smile: Stubborn is the most beautiful in the world.

woman.

The story of the two people is very simple, without any complicated entanglements. From childhood sweethearts to falling in love, everything is so natural. Rhodes is an outstanding mage student in the training camp, and her wife Stibello is gentle and virtuous.

Two girls fell in love and then got married. The process was as simple as the Gesang flowers blooming everywhere on the grassland.

Then, Stibello died, and Rhodes switched to the most unconventional necromancer profession, turning him into a skeleton. It was as simple as that.

He didn't tell me how his wife died. Oscar seemed to be familiar with him, but he didn't mention it in his discussion. Since he didn't tell me, I won't ask. What moved me was Luo

The simple and sincere love between De and Stibello.

"By the way, Mr. Rhodes and Mrs. Stibello seem to particularly like children."

The two times I met him, I saw him playing with his wife and children, so I asked this question, and it was just a casual remark.

"That's right!!"

Rhodes, whose face had gradually become gentler, was suddenly shaken and his momentum changed drastically. He stood up suddenly, answered with a fervent expression, and then slowly stroked the void above his wife's belly... tenderly.

, that dry and cracked right hand made a bulging shape.

"Stibel once said: Rod, my dear, don't be sad. Look, all the children here, all the children on this continent, are our children. We are happy. You must treat them well and protect them.

…”

Muttering to himself, Rhodes suddenly fell to his knees with a thud, holding his head in pain. His dry and rough eyes like a desert became moist, as if something sharp was scratching in his mind, and he shook his head desperately.

Screaming, moaning, and muttering.

"That's right. That's it. Why would I forget? Why would I forget what Stibello said to me? How could I forget? Why? Why? Why..."

"Mr. Rhodes, you..."

I looked at him blankly. The deep sadness emanating from him and the regret vented from his voice seemed to tear my own heart apart.

"grown ups……"

His sleeve was gently pulled, and when he lowered his head, he saw that it was a child, probably one of the children who had just played with Rhodes.

"Sir, Uncle Rhodes sometimes behaves like this suddenly. Just leave him alone for a few days and it will be fine."

Looking at the young and mature child in front of me, and then looking at Rhodes who was kneeling on the ground, holding his head and whining crazily, with tears and snot mixed all over his face, I sighed slightly and touched this

Child's head.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I said something I shouldn't have said and disturbed you..."

Although Rhodes' mournful whine has gradually disappeared behind him, it still clearly echoes in my mind over and over again, as if a sharp knife has scraped my heart again and again, causing pain, suffocation, and discomfort.

Suddenly, there was an awkward sound of footsteps coming from behind. The sound was very low, indicating that the person was very light. I thought it was those children. When I turned around and looked, the first sight that caught my eye made me stunned.

.

A familiar red beautiful scarf.

Coming from behind me was none other than Rod’s skeleton wife, Stibello.

She stopped in front of me like a puppet, raised her wide red robe sleeves, and revealed a pair of thick bone claws. On the bone claws, she grasped an ordinary gold chain with an old color, which looked similar to the one on the street.

There is no difference between the common people's jewelry sold at the stalls, the prices are cheap, and the ordinary ones can't be more ordinary.

"For me...?"

I pointed at myself, with a long and lingering tone of doubt.

She bent her neck.

I took the gold chain over with some disbelief, and then watched her turn around stiffly and leave with mechanical steps.

The skeleton is controlled by the master and has no soul. Could it be that Rhodes has recovered and then ordered her to give me this gold chain as a return gift for the scarf?

I stared blankly at Stibello's back until he disappeared deep into the alley, and then I raised the gold chain in my hand and put it in front of my eyes.

It's really just an ordinary gold chain, but holding it in my hand, the warm breath coming from it is like wearing clothes woven by Willas on my body, making me feel like I'm seeing a stranger I've never seen before.

The woman, gentle and beautiful, was standing in front of me, smiling gratefully at me, and the red scarf around her neck floated gently with her movements.

The pendant hanging from the gold chain is a small teardrop-shaped blue crystal. It is still a cheap imitation. It has a few small characters engraved on it. It is crooked. It looks like the owner was clumsy after buying it.

The carvings are the same.

I put the pendant in front of my eyes and read out the words engraved on it word for word.

I will...always protect you...

Holding the gold chain tightly in my hand, I stared blankly at the depths of the already deserted alley, in the direction where Stibello disappeared.

The breeze blew by, making my face feel cold.

Huh?

I wiped my face subconsciously, and my hands suddenly became wet. I continued to wipe, but more and more, until it dripped from my cheeks.

Suddenly, I frantically took out the clothes that Veras had knitted for me, put them on one by one, and wrapped my body in her tenderness.

I will cherish the present! I will live a happier life!

must!!

After this kid Tualatin fell into the river, I thought he had returned to the embrace of the mother river. Unexpectedly, he showed up in the bar in full swing the next day, still gulping down ale without repentance, and I never thought about it.

He got the news there.

He must prepare. Three days later, he will officially set off for the Dwarf King's City.

After receiving this notice, Linya and I high-fived each other, and Feini also jumped and cheered along with us.

"By the way, why are you cheering?"

I suddenly turned around. I picked up Fini, who was jumping around like a restless kitten, by her back collar. Why was this guy happier than us? Even the bell was jingling.

It made a cheerful sound, which made people feel inexplicably unhappy.

"Because I can go back, meow."

This transvestite was so happy that she didn't even realize that I had lifted her up in the air. She was still shaking her head in joy, with a smile on her face like a flower.

"That's right." I looked at her strangely.

"Do you really want to go back alone?"

"What's wrong, meow? Cousin, you promised me that after completing the guide mission, you would let me take the teleportation array back. You can't go back on your word, meow~~"

Hearing what I said, Feini suddenly showed a panic expression, as if I had already regretted it.

"Of course I mean what I say. I just want to remind you that there is a 0.01% chance of being involved in space turbulence during teleportation, so you should be careful."

Of course, the above sentence is absolutely nonsense.

Feini's face suddenly turned pale.

"Don't worry, there is only a 0.01% chance. Even a unlucky guy like you has no chance of encountering it." I comforted Fini with "kindness" and patted her shoulder, and raised her "Everything is fine"

thumbs up.

If there really is a 0.01% chance of being involved in space turbulence, then with Feini's Tragedy Emperor halo, this chance needs to be multiplied by about 10,000. We call it 10,000 times the Tragedy Emperor for short. And then divide it by this, 1000

- Within 10,000 times is the emperor, 100-1,000 times is the king, 10-100 times is the master, 1-10 times is the scholar, less than 1 times is the lucky apprentice...

Ahem——!!

"Meow meow, I don't want to go back alone!!"

Obviously, Feini still had a thorough understanding of her tragic emperor aura, so she immediately shook her head in distress.

"Cousin, take me back, meow~"
