Personality V: I will save everything

After Nabu's mother came to the manor, although she knew that in order to surprise Nabu, she could not meet Nabu for the time being.

But that day in the restaurant, she couldn't help but go over and look at Nabu.

Your son has grown up. How are you doing these days? Is life tiring? Are you hungry?

She had so many things she wanted to say to Nabu.

But she also knew that it was not the time yet. She only whispered, "My child," as Naib pushed the dining cart away.

But now, in the banquet hall, she knew that she no longer had to endure it, and she could finally recognize her son.

Finally, Nabu, the protagonist of this banquet, finally opened the door of the banquet hall.

"Bang!" Lucas and Juke, who had been standing on both sides of the gate, fired a salute.

And the next second, everyone saw Nabu's outfit clearly.

"Uh……"

Is Nabu here for a dinner party or a fight?

But Nabu didn't pay attention to the looks from the people around him on his strange attire.

He only saw his mother sitting in the center of the banquet hall.

"mom!"

Nabu shouted and threw himself into his mother's arms.

"Nabu, my child, I miss you so much." Nabu's mother also hugged Nabu tightly in her arms. Mother and son had not seen each other for a long time.

"I miss you too, mom." Naib responded to his mother.

Suddenly, Nabu seemed to remember something, grabbed his mother's hand, and wanted to take her away from the banquet hall.

"Wow, wow, calm down, Naib. This is just a little joke." Norton spoke up to stop the farce from happening.

Seeing Norton approaching, Naib immediately protected his mother behind him and looked at Norton warily.

"..." Looking at Naib's appearance, Norton opened his mouth. He didn't know how to explain to Naib. Norton was not very good at speaking.

"Don't be nervous, Naib. I will explain everything to you." Joseph spoke up at the right time. Professional matters should be left to professionals.

……ten minutes later……

Joseph's unparalleled speaking skills, coupled with Naib's mother's own assurance, Naib finally understood the whole story.

Naib's hatred was transferred to Norton.

After receiving Naib's hateful eyes, Norton shrank back unconsciously. Indeed, most of the threats he made to Naib to participate in the game were made up on the spot.

So this indirectly led to Nabu's misunderstanding.

So the current scene is that Naib stares at Norton full of resentment. Norton knows that he is in the wrong and shrinks like a quail.

"Okay, okay, it ends well after all." Alva stepped in to help Norton smooth things over, and handed Naib a glass of wine.

"Don't be angry, be happy, tonight is your dinner." Alva said to Naib.

Naib said, "I won't argue with you today. Do you think I will deal with you in the future?" (referring to Norton)

Finally, with everyone's concerted cooperation, the dinner was finally held normally.

Party? It's still the same, a few elegant gentlemen and beautiful ladies drinking, chatting and joking together.

Occasionally, two people will form a temporary team to dance together in the middle of the banquet.

But what about our protagonist Nabu?

Oh, he's been eating.

That's right, everyone looked in the direction of Nabu and saw that the food on the plate he was holding was already as high as a hill.

And...how should I say...the food Naib picked...how should I say...are very targeted...

Chicken, beef, lamb, pork, eggs, bread.

It seems to be all protein and carbohydrates...

As soon as Nabu officially started the banquet, he went straight to the dining table, where there was a dazzling array of food that he had never seen before.

Especially meat, the table is full of meat, but it is difficult to eat fresh meat on the battlefield.

So Nabu was not polite at all.

Eat, eat, eat, eat, eat with all your might.

Everyone: His appetite is as big as Norton’s.

Finally, Valletta couldn't stand it anymore. She felt that if Nabu continued to eat the way he did, he would definitely choke on the food.

"Here, let's drink something. Don't choke." Valletta brought a glass of milk to Naib.

When he heard the sound, Nabu was finally willing to distract his attention from the food.

But when he saw that what Valletta brought him was a glass of milk, he refused without thinking.

?

Valletta didn't understand. Didn't Nabu choke at all after eating so much food?

Cogan saw Valletta's doubts, so she brought Naib a glass of juice.

Sure enough, after seeing clearly that Kogan had given him a glass of juice, Naib immediately picked up the cup and drank it.

???

Valletta was even more confused. Doesn't Nabu like to drink milk?

Corgan pulled Vallett aside and explained to her.

"Mr. Naib is from Nepal, and people there are usually lactose intolerant. In other words, if they drink milk, they are prone to diarrhea, so he didn't take it just now."

"Oh." Valletta understood, and she decided to go to the ivory tower more often to look for some characteristics of people in different areas, so that more "family members" would come in and she could get to know them better.

There was a brief interlude and the party was still lively, but soon someone noticed that something was wrong.

"Where is the owner of the manor? Doesn't he attend every dinner?" Jack asked the doubts in his heart. He discovered it from the beginning of the dinner.

"I don't know." Joseph answered truthfully. He didn't know where the manor owner had gone.

"My brother is also missing." This is what Andrew said. Usually before the dinner started, he would go to find Karl and come to the dinner with him, but this time he didn't find him.

Just when everyone was confused, the manor owner finally arrived too late.

Behind him was Karl, who almost lost half his life.

Carl: I'm exhausted.

"Nabu, please come with me." The manor owner asked Nabu by name to go to a place with him.

Naib put down the food in his hand and followed the manor owner.

"Where are we going?" Nabu asked curiously as he followed.

"Go to a place where you can untie the knot in your heart." The manor owner replied.

After saying that, the two were speechless again. Nabu still followed the manor owner closely until the manor owner took him to the dark world after death.

"Where is this?!"

"Don't be nervous, Naibu. This is the world after death. Everyone's soul will come here after death." The manor owner explained to Naibu.

"Would you like to meet your former comrades? They are always thinking of you here."

Hearing the owner of the manor do this, Naib's deepest guilt that he had buried in his heart immediately burst out. Once, because of one of his mistakes, more than a dozen comrades died on the battlefield.

This was something Naib could never forgive himself for.

"No, don't, I'm sorry, it's all my fault..."

I heard the owner of the manor say that he could see his comrades who were killed by him again.

Naib originally wanted to refuse.

But he took a deep breath and made up his mind to meet them. Even if he was cut into pieces by them, Nabu would not complain.

"I want to meet them..."

Hearing what Naib said, Karl, who had been staying nearby, attracted the dozen souls over.

To be honest, when Carl saw the souls of these dozen Nepali warriors, Carl really felt like his eyes were black.

Almost all of these people died in a big explosion, and some of them were even broken into pieces. God knows how long it took Karl to put them back together completely.

When he saw a dozen of his former comrades standing in front of him in the form of translucent souls, the first thing Nabu did was to kneel down towards them.

Naib knelt on the ground, closed his eyes tightly, and waited for the hatred of his comrades to tear him apart.

"Nabu, long time no see. How have you been these past years?"

"Is the war over?"

"Did we win?"

"Have you met my parents? How are they doing now?"

Naib never expected that those comrades who were killed because of his fault would react like this when they first saw him.

"Okay, Nabu, stop kneeling on the ground." A soldier wanted to reach out and pull Nabu up from the ground, but his arm went through Nabu's body.

"...It's okay, Nabu, we didn't blame you." The soldier paused, then comforted Nabu.

Hearing that his former comrades never blamed him, Nabu finally dared to open his eyes and look directly at them.

"Okay, Nabu, don't just sit there and cry like a girl. We are Nepali warriors, and no difficulty can defeat us."

"That's right, Naib. Being able to sacrifice on the battlefield is the greatest honor for us Nepalese soldiers."

"Get up quickly, Nabu, we still have many things to ask you."

Under the urging of his former comrades, Naib finally slowly stood up from the ground and began to discuss with them the recent major events in Nepal.

After learning what happened after the war, the dead soldiers in Nepal also discovered that Naib had been taking care of their parents.

I couldn't help but feel a little moved.

"Oh, oh, but let me tell you, Nabu, it's been such a long time, do you have a girl you like now?"

"That is to say, Nabu, you should be getting married soon, right? Which family is the girl from? Is she pretty? When do you plan to get married?"

"That is to say, Nabu, I have to tell you that if you like a girl, you have to chase her quickly. Just like me, I have been chasing the beautiful little girl from the next town."

"That's enough, Pierre, our ears are almost getting calloused after listening to you. We all know that the girl from the neighboring town doesn't like you at all."

"You're looking for a fight, right?"

"Come on, who's afraid of whom?"

The ghosts of the dead soldiers in Nepal talked in a variety of ways, just like when they used to play tricks on each other in the frontline combat camps.

Looking at this scene, which was the warmest and most nostalgic scene in Nabu's heart, Nabu finally burst into laughter.

"Oh, that's right! Nabu, smile more, you always have a cold face, no girl will like you."

"Hmm..." Nabu replied.

"Don't stick to the past. We have never blamed you. Live a good life. Don't always go out to make troubles. Go home and see your mother more often."

"OK…"

"As we just said, how old are you? You haven't settled down with a good girl yet. Don't come back. We have all been reincarnated and you are still a bachelor."

"Go away...I won't do this. Just wait, I will definitely find you a beautiful sister-in-law." Nabu responded to the undead, but the tears in his eyes kept falling.

"Don't cry, silly boy. It's almost time for us, so we agreed that you must find us a beautiful sister-in-law. Then don't forget to bring her to our tomb to show us."

"I will...just wait..." the mercenary said choked, because he also noticed that it was time to say goodbye to his former comrades.

"Let's go, it's time for you to hit the road." Karl said at the right time.

"Goodbye, Nabu."

"Live a good life and go home early."

"We will still be brothers in the next life."

The undead followed Karl and turned back to make their final instructions to Naib, who of course wrote them down one by one.

The undead lined up, and one by one, Karl chose the family they would be reincarnated into in their next life.

Naib watched silently from the side and said goodbye to them one by one.

It wasn't until the last undead was reincarnated that Nabu finally spoke.

"What kind of family did they go to?" This was the only thing Naib wanted to ask.

"There is no war, no poverty, no hunger, but it is not rich and powerful, ordinary people, living an ordinary life." Karl said slowly.

"Is this so? This is good."

For those who have experienced war, it is already a dream to live a life without war, poverty, and hunger.

Just when everything was settled and the three of them were on their way back to the manor, Naib suddenly asked a question.

"Why are there wars in the world?"

"Because there are people." the manor owner replied.

Where there are people there are fights, and where there are fights there are wars.

"Is that so?" After saying that, Nabu stopped talking, as if he was thinking about something.

The manor owner and Karl had no intention of disturbing him, and continued to walk forward on their own.

"Can I consider this place as 'home'?" Naib suddenly asked.

He has had enough of the outside world, which is filled with constant fighting, war and smoke. Perhaps hiding in this "paradise" with his mother is a good choice.

"Of course, you are welcome"

"Thank you."

…………

The three of them walked quietly until they walked back to the door of the dinner hall.

"Smile, Nabu, this is for you."

laugh? Nabu didn't know what kind of expression he should show.

"Smile, Naib, and think about your mother. Your new 'family' is waiting for you inside."

Look at the light coming from the crack in the door.

Nabu smiled, from the bottom of his heart.
