Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 21: cost

"What will happen to the memory of ten years?" Hahn asked. In the view of this soldier, the memory of ten years seems to be better than the life of ten years.

"I have said before that the reason why we are now is because we have experienced what we have experienced in the past. In other words, those memories of the past make our towers of life different. But, if Part of it is taken out, especially for such a large part of the whole decade, what do you think of this tower? "The cheese asked.

"... It will ... change to be different from before?" "Monkey" thought for a long time and said uncertainly.

"Is this not certain, it is missing a part, of course it is not the same as before." "Wild boar" said.

"No, I do n’t mean that. I mean, if that tower loses a large part of it, such as its exterior walls, then, in the eyes of others, it looks like ... like ... "

Jake worked hard to organize the language, but this question was too esoteric, and it was difficult to express it accurately and clearly with his knowledge. In fact, not only Jack, Elsa, Mona and even those who have personal experience, including the mayor of Bender and the residents of Sweet Water Town, are also not very clear about the changes that have happened to them. But they instinctively know that this cost is far more serious than a simple ten-year life.

Although everyone including Mayor Bender thought that the cheese could give them an answer, the mage also said ambiguously about it, and it seemed that he himself did not know exactly what it meant. But after this discussion, the cheese finally clarified the misunderstanding with the residents of Tianshui Town, and the Hongmen Banquet set by Mayor Bender became a real welcome banquet. It's just that the mayor's knowledge of the plague comes from the devil, so the clues he can provide for the five are really limited.

………………

"In order to ensure that they are not infected, they actively reduced their communication with other areas of the Earl's Earlier. They had just moved into this camp half a year ago. It seems that unless the devil is found, they will not know about the plague. How much more than us. "The female soldier said. After the banquet, the five cheesemen summarized the information they had obtained this time in the room arranged by the mayor.

"Although the people in Sweetwater escaped the plague, they fell into the trap of the devil, and they didn't know whether they were lucky or unfortunate." Elsa sighed.

"Is there really no way I can help them?" Mona asked, looking at the mage. Although the mayor has asked the cheese many times on this issue before, the cheese all claims to be powerless. But the female warrior felt that the mage should know something.

"It's useless, the devil's deal can't break the contract, because the contract itself needs to pay far more than what they want to return." The cheese shook his head and sighed helplessly.

"What if we kill that devil?" The question of "wild boar" is always so simple and straightforward, but what he said is not unreasonable. If the devil who executes the transaction dies, then the transaction will not be established.

"Not to mention that if the devil doesn't want to show up, we can't find him at all, even if he stands in front of you, I'm afraid you can't kill him. Believe me, even the best weapon in all kingdoms will not cut the devil's body. Said the cheese, the expression on his face impatient.

"Okay, today we have gone through a lot, and now we must seize the time to rest, but not every day have the opportunity to sleep in the room." Mona said that the Master's tone was a bit wrong, and said quickly. Today, I first experienced a fierce battle, and tried my best to clarify my position. The group was indeed very tired. So they greeted each other and agreed on the time to get up tomorrow morning, and each went back to the divided room to rest.

The sun can't be seen in the cave, and the outside time can only be judged by the light passing through the cracks in the tree roots at the top of the cave, but the cheese knows that it should be night now. The rooms in the camp are not rich, so the mayor can only arrange three rooms for five people to rest. As a matter of course, there is a "monkey" and "wild boar", a Mona and Elsa, and the cheese as a mage got a separate room. After returning to the room, the cheese did not rest, although he was also exhausted by the overwhelming situation in the past few days, but the mage was not as vulnerable as others thought. Moreover, the appearance of the devil made him more confused about the future of this mission, and the direction of things seemed to gradually develop in a direction that the mage could not see. Irritability lingered in the cheese. He thought of An Lina. If the school sister is here, she can definitely give her a lot of good suggestions. So, do you want to ask her for help? Although this task should theoretically be completed by the cheese alone, the teacher did not prohibit him from getting some advice and tips from others.

Just when the mage was going to call Alina, his door rang.

"Hey, you did n’t eat much at the banquet before. I mean, you ate a lot less than when you were on the top of the Dragon's Back. So I found some ingredients from the kitchen ... you know, just do it Some snacks. "Opening the door, Elsa carried a large wooden tray with a few sausages and cheese bread still steaming hot oil. The lady boss stood at the door and said a little crampedly.

I don't know why. When I saw Elsa's face, the cheese felt that there was a lot less irritability inside him. Smelling the smell of sausage, there was a slight noise in his stomach.

"Come in, I'm hungry." The mage let Elsa into the house, and he didn't notice a smile on his face.

The house arranged by the mayor is not large, except for a bed, there is only a small table and two wooden chairs. The proprietress put the food on the table and sat down, taking the opportunity to seem to have dinner with cheese.

"Your hand is inconvenient, I will cut it for you." Elsa said after the mage also sat down. Indeed, the left shoulder of the cheese is still bandaged, and it seems a little difficult for him to use one hand to handle the whole sausage.

"You don't have to worry about me, I was really a little irritated just now, and it's all right now." The mage looked at the proprietress who was cutting sausages and said.

Hearing the words of the cheese, Elsa ’s movements were slightly stiff, but it was said that breaking the heart did not need to be shy for this sturdy boss lady, and she had already admitted that she liked him before.

"You are very serious at the banquet and just now. Hahn told me just now that I was afraid of accidentally offending you."

"I'm just, a little irritated. To be honest, I didn't expect to encounter the devil this time." The cheese turned his head to the door and said.

"In fact, after two days of action, everyone is somewhat uncomfortable. After all, they were soldiers before, and they have little experience for things other than combat." The boss said.

"I know, I didn't blame them, I just disappointed myself." The mage sighed and said.

"I'm worried about you, especially after I learned how terrible the devil is today." Elsa looked up and looked at the cheese. For ordinary people, the world of magic is both mysterious and dangerous. Previously, Elsa only saw the magical side, but what she experienced today made the lady boss fear the other side of magic. After all, the origin of the word magic is demon mana. Although this is a misunderstanding of spells, compared with ordinary people, the mage is more likely to deal with those things in the shadows.

"If you want to achieve anything in this world, you have to pay a price for any goal. The residents of Tianshui Town have paid a price to avoid the plague, and the soldiers have to pay for a strong body and superb skills. The same is true in the magical world. Nothing can be obtained at no cost. I can do what others ca n’t, and I have to pay a price that others do n’t have to pay. UU reading www.uukanshu.com This is a normal thing. ”The cheese suddenly said .

"Some mages want to get results and are afraid of paying the price. They are either speculative or tricky, or change the debtor from themselves to others. But I do not agree with this idea. I think that since I have enjoyed the results, I should pay the price calmly, I will not escape. "The mage turned to look at Elsa's eyes and continued.

"Few Masters are hospices in the end, and even those immortal, they have paid a high price, but we do n’t know. It ’s fair, so you do n’t have to worry about me. It ’s my life to become a Master. Pursuit, I am willing to pay for this pursuit. But you do n’t have to worry about me. You have not been exposed to these things. The debts on me should not be repaid by you. "

"Maybe worrying about you is the price I pay. Since you can give it with confidence, why can't I?" Elsa said without giving in. Then he left the room without giving the cheese any chance, leaving only a plate of freshly cut sausage.

Looked at the door that had been forcibly closed, and then looked at the sausage on the plate. He didn't know why he wanted to say these things to the boss, but just said so. And Elsa ’s reaction made the mage somewhat at a loss. The cheese had few opportunities to communicate with people before, and there were fewer people with deep feelings, so he did n’t know how to deal with the boss ’s relationship.

While the mage was still distressed for Elsa, a pair of eyes had set his eyes on him.

"How interesting this world is, let me meet your apprentice here. So, let me see how fun the disciples you teach can bring me. Really, it is worth looking forward to." A voice from Words.
