Allen and his little bones [Western Fantasy]

What is the image of an ideal father in the minds of ordinary children?

He can be gentle and friendly, he can also be reticent and silent, he can also be a little optimistic and humorous, and he can laugh and play with children like a big friend who is only very reliable at critical moments.

And no matter what they look like, they should all have broad shoulders and hands with broad joints.

They can easily pick up the little puppies who are not as long as their own legs, use their strong arms as stools for the little ones, and let the little ones ride on top of their heads during assemblies, artificially increasing the height of the children.

They are tall and reliable like mountains.

——These are the views that Eli summed up from his limited life experience before entering Alberta College.

After entering Alberta College, he pinned his expectation of the role of "father" on the mentor.

Eleven or twelve years old is not too young in a world where people become adults at the age of 16, but they are not too old either.

The instructor is strict and old-fashioned, and his warmth is like tiny green moss growing on a thick/hard old tree. You have to get close and search carefully to see the vibrant green hidden in the gaps in the branches.

After being picked up by the mentor as a good seedling for sword practice, and receiving key training and care, Eli basically didn't think much about his father's appearance.

He felt that his father should be like a mentor.

Although the other party is not the same as the three fathers he had imagined, and the education methods and performance requirements are much stricter, the common characteristic of "tall and reliable" is a perfect match, exactly.

Regarding the expectations of "father", Eli puts on the mentor for seven or eight years.

It started from the beginning of his ignorant enrollment, and ended with the other party's painful confession in front of the priest, and his determination to send him to die with his own hands.

...At this moment, in Lawrence's narration, another image of "father" is slowly being established.

The man who only made him look at the top of his head in the dream had defended him and his mother desperately, and that was the one who should really be called "Father" by him.

"...!"

The hand suddenly warmed up, and there was more body temperature that didn't belong to him. Eli came back to his senses and realized that his hand had been unconsciously clenched by his side.

The one covering it was naturally Alan's, and the temperature of the opponent's palm was obviously higher than his, so warm that it was almost scalding.

Eli held it back silently, and after a while, he realized that it wasn't that the black-haired young man's palm was too hot, but that he was a little too cold.

That kind of coldness is not the coldness felt by the body because the outside temperature is too low, its root is in the body, like a block of ice suddenly formed inside the body out of thin air, filling the chest cavity, and began to emit cold air from the inside to the outside, cooling the blood in circles and body temperature.

"Don't let your emotions control you."

Noticing Eli's abnormality, Lawrence temporarily stopped talking, his voice seemed to have some kind of calming power, allowing Eli's surging emotions to instantly connect with his tone.

He raised his hands to the blond young man opposite, whose appearance had begun to change, and made a very soothing movement of pressing down.

Eli involuntarily took a deep breath following his downward pressure, and the surging feeling transmitted to the brain after he realized it really gradually subsided.

"...Thank you." Even though he still didn't understand what happened to him just now, Eli thanked his senior in a low voice after the indescribable surge weakened.

Another warm hand stretched out from the side, and Eli glanced sideways in the direction where the hand was stretched out, and saw Alan's eyes falling on him.

The black-haired young man frowned slightly, his eyes worried and concerned, and the fingertips of the other party gently brushed his forehead with melting heat, and then slid down.

Eli realized something was wrong after being touched by Allen twice.

His night vision ability seems to have suddenly increased several levels. Even if the light here is dim, he can clearly see his own reflection in Alan's eyes——

Starting from the skin on the left forehead that was rubbed by the other party, a strange scar slanted down vertically along the cheek, and the end disappeared behind the ear.

The "scar" seemed to be shining with shattered light when it went deep, as if what was growing inside was not flesh and blood, but something filled with viscous venom, which made people feel horrified when they saw it.

"When your emotions start to fluctuate violently, the dark elements lurking in your body start to agitate." Alan spoke softly, his tone so gentle that it didn't match his daily cold face at all.

He didn't seem to be able to see how scary the gaps in people's faces are at all. Even though Eli, who reacted carefully, tilted his head carefully, showing that he didn't want him to see it, and dodged back, his hand was He even chased after him, holding the man's chin to "catch" the fleeing head back, and let his fingertips continue to touch around the "scar", tracing carefully.

"It's okay." Allen whispered, "I'm not afraid, and I don't think it's too ugly, so take it easy, okay?"

It was difficult for Eli to meet Alan's eyes at this time. The action of "catching" him back was like holding and holding him. The half of his cheek that was held briefly seemed to be under a paralyzing spell. After regaining consciousness, the whole person will inevitably lose control of his expression, and he is very afraid that his expression will be too ugly.

And even though Eli didn't answer for a while and turned his eyes away in embarrassment, Alan seemed to understand what he was thinking.

"It's okay." Allen repeated again, and the hand he was holding Eli was also tightened, and the fingertips pressed Eli's knuckles that were actually somewhat "excessively visible".

The blond-haired youth hadn't noticed that he also had a "gap" on his hand.

Back then, after the successful conversion experiment, Jiulisa deployed the dark elements in her body entirely by heart. With a flash of thought, she could complete the replacement of elements in her body, switching from human to undead.

Even with the temporary emergency training by the undead elders as mentors, Eli's control over the dark elements is far from reaching the level of his mother's. Elemental balance in the body.

If Lawrence hadn't stopped Eli just now, and used his power as the master of the place to help the visitors calm down the disorder of the dark elements, as long as Eli stayed in the emotional state just a little longer, he would perform for everyone present. "Great Change of Undead".

Right now, Eli's emotions are barely contained, but Lawrence can only help him stabilize the state in a general direction. As for these "undead" body parts, he needs to control his own power to slowly restore them.

"I don't want you to see me like this." Eli turned his head slightly under Allen's hand.

Because the range is not large, it looks more like he rubbed into Allen's palm.

"But I've seen it," said Allen.

He saw that the "scar" next to his finger had begun to heal, and he flicked Eli's forehead with his fingers: "I dare to see what you look like."

Eli's eyes were still on the sidelines, and he couldn't understand whether there was any deep meaning in this sentence for a while, but Hall and Lawrence coincidentally glanced at the black-haired young man who didn't change his face.

Lawrence's expression was unpredictable, and he couldn't see much emotion like Allen.

Hall's mouth opened and closed, and the brows almost raised his hairline. From the corner of his eye, he saw that the people around him didn't intend to express their opinions, so he had to hold back his intention of speaking with difficulty, and kept winking at Eli. I hope the blond-haired young man can take a look this way and understand the hints in his eyes.

...However, unfortunately, until the last "undead" part of Eli's body was successfully restored, he did not successfully receive the information from his predecessors.

Because Lawrence, who has already become the lord of Endland in disguise, is standing beside him. Not to mention every plant and tree here, even the direction the wind blows is under the control of Lawrence, and Hall dare not move him and Eli. The special connection between them, using the sword of Hor to convey the message.

When Lawrence asked, "Can I continue talking?", Eli turned his gaze back to the two seniors opposite.

He nodded slightly, and apologized again for the time he wasted, still holding each other with Alan with one hand: "Trouble you."

Originally, continuing to hold hands like this in front of the senior, with Eli's face, he should feel a little embarrassed, his cheeks would turn red and his body would become stiff because of the senior's gaze on the two hands.

But Allen's posture was too calm, he took Eli for granted, this openness unknowingly affected Eli, he hesitated for a short while, and then accepted that the two continued to exchange hands grasp the facts.

Although with some beast-like intuition, Eli felt that Hall looked at him in the wrong way, but on weekdays, as long as Hall saw him staying with Alan, at least seven times out of ten times, Hall would look in the wrong way. .

Lawrence coughed lightly.

This is a signal that the other party is about to continue the topic just now.

Eli's attention was quickly moved away from Hall... But Allen quietly turned his gaze over. He and Hall's eyes met, and Hall touched his nose, feeling guilty for some reason.

But why is he so guilty?After recalling it, Hall thought in a very complicated mood.

He felt that what the black-haired young man was thinking now, he still could only touch one side, and it was getting harder and harder to really see through.

From the moment Lawrence mentioned that he had met Eli's father, to the time when Eli almost became undead due to excessive emotional ups and downs, in the initial narration, Lawrence first recalled the appearance of Eli's father, and then talked about The situation when the other party arrived at the end of the land.Just now I mentioned that the young man who came here in the dusty world asked him for help, but Eli interrupted the narration, and had to stop temporarily to wait for him to calm down.

"When your father came here, he mainly asked me for three things." Lawrence, who resumed the topic, said, "First, he asked me to keep an item on his behalf; As long as it allows people to increase their strength for a short period of time, the third is to ask me if it is possible for the mixed-race undead to survive in a human form."
