Mount and Blade

Invisible threads were wrapped around Edward's body, like a puppet in a shadow play being manipulated by unknown threads. The negative emotions hidden deep in his heart were screaming happily.

"Jiejie, dragon...curse...fall."

Green blinked again, and those twisted lines disappeared, as if they were just visual and auditory hallucinations. It's just that the current situation left him no time to think too much.

Seeing that Edward showed no sign of letting go, Green raised his right hand and slashed at the back of Edward's neck.

Edward let go of his hand in pain, and immediately looked at Green with a pair of bloodshot and crazy eyes, obviously still in a furious state.

Furda immediately fell to the ground like a doll. She sat paralyzed on the ground, covering her neck and kept retching and coughing. This must have been the closest she came to death in her life. There were already bruises on her neck. Edward had almost died just now. He broke her neck.

"You're crazy! Do you know what you were doing just now!" Looking at Edward who still didn't react, Green angrily shouted without fear.

Edward's eyes, which were still furious just now, regained some clarity. His usually sharp eyes looked at Green blankly and blankly, "I..."

Green didn't care so much and quickly checked on Furda's condition. Furda's condition didn't recover for a long time, as if she was about to faint at any time. "Madam, are you okay?"

Furda coughed and was speechless. She just shook her head feebly.

The room fell into deathly silence, and Edward stood there, not knowing what to do.

He... almost strangled Furda to death.

"Ah..." Edward looked at his hands and trembled unconsciously. There were blood marks on them from Furda's fierce struggle. His face was full of disbelief and regret, "Mother... .I..."

He was like a child who knew that he had almost made a huge mistake. His anger had been overwhelmed by the surge of regret and intense sadness... What was he doing? He almost lost his mother.

...Even that kind of mother is all he has right now.

"...Why is this happening!" Edward knelt down on the ground. Frightened and sad, he could only hug himself tightly with his long arms and cry helplessly.

That posture was very familiar to Green, and it was something only a person with an extreme lack of security would have.

Green didn't know what to do, and looked at Edward with a more distressed look. In any case, this is a conflict between mother and son, no matter what happens...

Well, Green has been without a mother since he was born...

Although he didn't understand, he couldn't do that to his mother no matter what.

When he thought of his mother, Green began to feel sad in his heart. No matter what, it would be better than nothing, right?

Sure enough, here...

Green thinks he is the clown.

Furda regained some strength and looked at Edward with eyes full of complex emotions, including fear, helplessness, and distress.

"...Edward." Furda said with tears in her eyes and her voice was hoarse.

Edward's trembling and crying body froze, and the eyes he looked at Fulda were full of complex feelings, disgust...love...guilt...resentment...reluctance.

He just wanted to escape from here, he didn't want to see this mother who made him feel broken again.

Edward just wanted to stand up and run away from here. He staggered up and ran to the door, but he seemed to hear Furda's weak voice: "I'm sorry..."

Edward's figure froze outside the door, and all the grievances he had accumulated over the years suddenly came out like a flood. Tears poured out unsatisfactorily. He staggered out of the house, crying like a child.

Yes, he has been waiting for this apology for too long...

...

Just when he was about to have sex with his ex-princess, Gulenberudo rushed out of the room and walked around outside wearing only a loincloth.

He felt a little dizzy and seemed to have forgotten something, but... that was not important. The important thing was that he just wanted to see Benedicut now.

"Come to me when you are lost. I can divine the future for you as the witch of the Fire Palace."

Benedicut's words suddenly echoed in Gulenberudo's mind. The person he needs now is not Furda. He suddenly has an impulse. At this time, he just wants to see Benedicut...

...Then I want to ask her for help in divination, hoping that the elf will give me some guidance.

Gulenberudo searched for Benedicut, but accidentally met Hickel on the city wall.

"Gulun Berudo, you should know about the attack on Benedicut, right?" Hickel's eyes brightened a little when he looked at Gulen Berudo.

Gulenberudo's golden pupils shrank suddenly, "Who committed the murder? Where is Benedicut now?"

Gulenberudo's big hand pressed on Hickel's shoulder. The pain from the old injury made Hickel suddenly break into a cold sweat.

"Are you injured?" Gulenberudo took his hand back, "I'm sorry, where is Benedicut?"

"The opponents are five extremely professional assassins. Fortunately, Hanks is also in the hotel, otherwise I might not be able to handle it alone."

"What!?" Gulenberudo's face tightened, and then he remembered that Green was still in the closet.

"I have sent guards to protect her, don't worry." Hickel hadn't finished speaking yet.

Gulumberudo said impatiently: "I want to go there." and ran wildly.

"Wait a minute, Gulenberudo!" Hickel stopped him, his blue and sad eyes seemed to have a lot to say.

"What are you doing?" Gulumberudo, who passed by Hickel, turned back impetuously. Just like his straightforward nature, the impatience in his eyes was undisguised.

"...No, it's nothing. Benedicut was frightened by those killers. Go quickly." Hickel captured the impatience in Gulenberudo's eyes and his desire to see Benedicut immediately. Extremely eager.

Gulumberudo paused for a moment, and when he saw Hickel's lonely expression, a trace of guilt flashed in his heart, but he turned around and left quickly. Sickle looked at his retreating back and murmured to himself: "Actually, I just want to tell you that Benedicut is not the only one who admires you..."

When Gulenberudo rushed to the hotel, he saw Benedicut, who was safe and sound, sitting on the edge of the bed. He breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward to ask about the situation softly. Benedicut looked up and saw it was him, and smiled slightly, "I knew you would come."

At this time, Hickel was alone on the city wall. The evening wind whistled and blew her hair, and her heart was filled with complicated emotions. On the one hand, he was relieved that Benedicut was safe, but on the other hand, he was secretly sad about Gulenberudo's attitude towards him.

An owl flew overhead and made a series of cooing sounds, which seemed to wake up her sinking heart. Sikel took a deep breath and thought that maybe he should let go of some tangled emotions. Maybe, silently guarding each other is the most important thing.

Sikel stood alone on the city wall and cried, and it took a long time to slowly calm down.

Edward did not catch up with Gulenberudo, and he had just calmed down some of his emotions. He must look very embarrassed now, right? Such an obvious thing... it must have happened before, so why should he ask Gulenberudo to humiliate himself again?

Edward smiled mockingly to himself. Did he really regard him as a brother? How could a brother get together with his own mother! !

Damn you! ! Gulenberudo!

"Fuck!!" Edward's fist hit the wall hard, as if only smashing his hands until they were black and bleeding could alleviate the anger in his heart.

Anyway, after venting like this, the tears finally stopped.

Edward stumbled to the street near the hotel. He was out of breath because of venting his emotions. He no longer wanted to go to Gulumberudo. He really wanted to find a tavern somewhere to have a good drink.

When I glanced at him, I saw Hickel standing alone on the city wall.

Edward looked at Hickel on the city wall, with mixed emotions in his heart. Is she really willing to marry the eldest son of the Olsen family? He hesitated for a moment, but finally calmed down and walked towards the city wall.
