To be continued

When Siegel was very young, he didn't have the words father and mother in his cognition, and he didn't even have relatives.

He only knew that his life was cheap, not even worth a single gold coin, because one gold coin was enough to buy four or five servants like him.

He lives like this numbly, doing heavy work every day, like a machine that has been programmed, and he can't get sick, because he once saw a person with a cold being framed by Mrs. Hill Burned alive in the fire, just because he was afraid that his cold would infect others...

That time, human flesh was mixed with straw, and the charcoal gave off a scorched smell. Looking at the twisted and struggling person in the fire—maybe he shouldn’t be called him anymore, because his whole body has been burned beyond recognition.

Siegel stood among the crowd like this, and the fire was reflected in his pupils. This was the first time he faced death directly. Maybe he should be afraid, but there was no expression on his face.

The person who was burned into coke by the fire may be his future self.

Siegel thought this way, but after that, he was still doing heavy work every day numbly, and he didn't even have the thought of running away.Because he knew that escaping would only be worse. After the escaped servant was caught by the master of the manor, his eyes, nose, and hands and feet would be cut off.

If you want to ask him why he knows, oh, because in order to let the servants know the terrible fate of escape, several servants in the sheepfold who had their limbs cut off and their eyes, ears, mouths and noses gouged out were kept in captivity. Or when the servants are not working, they will be pulled over like a demonstration to see what happens to those people.

The turning point of Siegel’s life was after that rainy night in the forest. The wife of the manor suddenly asked for the Schug Jacquard blooming in the nearby forest to decorate the bedroom, so the housekeeper sent many servants to the forest to find it.

Sugar jacquard has a light blue glow at night and is most fragrant when picked at sunrise, dewy.After Siegel got the information from the housekeeper's order, he went into the forest and started searching.

There are dangers lurking in the forest at night, and their group was very unlucky. They encountered a wild beast as soon as they came, and it was raining in the forest, so they quickly dispersed while running.

At that time, it was undoubtedly the most desperate moment for Siegel. The beast kept chasing him, and unfortunately he fell, and just when he thought he was about to be eaten by the beast, he had already bit his leg The beast on the ground suddenly whimpered a few times and ran away.

When he looked up, a dusty egg was placed in front of him, and beside it, a Shuge jacquard was emitting light blue light.

Afterwards, he dragged his injured body back to the manor, and he was the only one who brought back Shug Jacquard.

The lady of the manor was very happy, and said that she could reward him with something, and even ask a doctor to treat him. Under the envious eyes of everyone, Siegel held some warm eggs in his arms, and at that moment, he didn't know what was going on in his mind , unexpectedly made an unexpected request that I had never thought of.

"Ma'am, can I keep this egg? I don't need treatment." He heard himself say.

Madam gave him a strange look, but she quickly agreed to the request with a smile. Afterwards, he dragged a pair of broken legs and returned to the room under the eyes of everyone whether he had hurt his head.

Perhaps in order to show her kindness, although the wife of the manor agreed to his request, she still invited a doctor to treat him and allowed him to rest for half a month.

Xiao Xia was hatched after another year and three months after he recovered from his injuries.

The reason why I remember it so clearly is because Siegel has developed the habit of holding the egg and talking every night since he got the egg.Even though he never received a response, from the moment he had something to confide in, Siegel felt that his heart, which had been numb for a long time, came alive.

He is no longer holding on to the idea of ​​living aimlessly every day. In the conversations at night after night, he even unknowingly talked about the future, and talked about the time period that he could not imagine.

Before that, he had always thought that his future would be to be burned to death in a straw heap due to illness, or to be sold to other places by his master or locked up alive because of his lack of strength to work. Starve in a room.

"When you hatch in the future, we will definitely become a pair of amazing Eudemons partners, and then I will buy a manor as big as the master, um, but I will not buy servants, I will also buy a lot of food for relief Those poor people, I heard that those who were poor because of the war are much worse than me..."

Every night, Siegel chattered like this, as if never tired. Even if it was just his one-man show, he sang very happily, because he knew that the egg in his arms was his audience.

Unbelievably, although Siegel hugged the egg into the quilt every night and confide, he never guessed that it was really not a dead egg. When the egg shell broke and revealed a pair of tender horns, he It seems that the future that I have imagined countless times has become within reach.

The phantom beast hatched from the eggshell seemed extremely fragile. When his rough hands touched the phantom beast's skin and felt his weak heartbeat, Siegel felt that his heart had never been so happy.

However, the talk time every night was cancelled. Even though Siegel knew that the phantom beast was still a young animal, and might not even understand his own words, he was still afraid that the phantom beast would disturb his sleep because of his nagging. thus bore yourself.

Taking care of a phantom beast is undoubtedly troublesome for him now, but he feels that this period of time is undoubtedly the best time in his memory.Because when he entered his room tiredly every night, what awaited him was no longer a dark and deserted room, but instead his phantom beast was lying on the bed waiting for him, and sometimes it would crawl on its own initiative Body to the door to meet.

It's just that the good times didn't last long, Xiao Xia was captured by someone, such a smart phantom beast was captured by a chicken leg.

When Siegel heard the news, he really couldn't laugh or cry, but at the same time he felt a little sad. The noble humanoid phantom beast should have received the best care from birth, but he couldn't even provide the most basic food , Does this mean that I should let go, should give up on him?

You should give it up, Xiaoxia can get better material conditions in the hands of Mrs. Hill, and there will be more talented people to sign a contract with him. The predicament of not being full.

Siegel tried to convince himself with this reason, but his body still unconsciously searched the manor one by one like a madman. When he finally found his phantom beast, he uncontrollably hugged Xiaoxia tightly in his arms. into his arms.

This is his.

No matter how bad the conditions he can provide, he will not let go.

Even if Xiao Xia can only live a life of mediocrity with him, he will not let go.

The subsequent situation was out of his control. When Siegel came back to his senses, he had already killed most of the servants in the manor and began to evade the pursuers.But it doesn't matter, Xiao Xia is still in his arms anyway.

Then after she fell into the dark cave, Xiaoxia ran away again, in order to find food that could satisfy her hunger in the cave.

Food again.

Siegel secretly wrote down in his heart that later he met a boy named Xia Tian in the cave, whose appearance was almost exactly the same as the Xiao Xia he escaped.

He wanted that boy to be Xiaoxia but he didn't want to, because his Eudemons always seemed to escape from his side again and again, and Siegel didn't want the boy to be like this.

Siegel opened his mouth again and again, trying to say or do something to restrain the young man, bound by his side, but in the end he found himself like a cowardly wretch, because he was afraid of self-defeating, what I dare not say anything, dare not do anything.

He huddled in the shell he shaped, just to continue his poor fantasy.

But the bond between him and the young man was so weak that the young man left in the end to attend the festival of the elves.

I didn't invite him, and I didn't tell him in advance. In the eyes of the young man, I was not as interesting as an elf festival.

The young man never came back after that, but Siegel had a guess in his heart with his gradually rising strength and cultivation.After consulting a large number of documents recorded in the library and getting personal confirmation from the headmaster, this guess gradually turned into reality.

That boy was his phantom beast, and the principal deduced from the pattern of the signed contract that Xiaoxia's participation in the elf festival was most likely for the fruit of life, because it was in his promotion list.

It's food again.

Although this time it was for upgrading, not for filling the stomach.

Siegel looked at the list made by the principal, and it was not difficult to deduce the route Xiaoxia took, but when he was about to set off to intercept people halfway, the principal, his teacher, personally stopped him.

"Instead of intercepting your phantom beast in the middle and blocking his path to advancement, it is better to work hard in retreat and practice, and become his help when he needs it in the future."

Facts have proved that his phantom beast itself is very capable. When he got the life fruit of the elves and advanced to the sixth level, he did not encounter any danger. The phantom beast contract on Siegel's arm did not show Any Eudemons encounter a dangerous situation.

And when he received the invitation letter from the siren, his teacher looked at him with relief.

"Perhaps, you and your Eudemons can go farther than anyone else. Here I wish you the god position in advance."

The teacher said so and approached the dark room. When he came out, he was already holding a red box in his hand. Siegel knew that it was the dragon meat of a real dragon.This is the last gift the teacher is going to give him in order to allow himself and the Eudemons to advance successfully.

...

At the wedding ceremony, Siegel finally saw his phantom beast again, but at that moment, his phantom beast seemed so strange.Even though the distance between him and the phantom beast was so close, it seemed that it was unnecessary to even look at him when offering the gift, and he didn't even turn his head.

I hate it, I made a contract with my cowardly and incompetent self.

He must feel that he is a burden on his way to upgrade, otherwise he wouldn't go on the road to find upgrade materials alone, without bringing himself.

When the siren took off the veil of summer and watched his phantom beast kiss the cheek of the person next to him time and time again, telling how he liked it, Siegel also felt that his heart had been ripped open by the knife, ruthlessly Poked again and again.

I'm very happy, after all, the siren is different from the incompetent self. You only need to lift your finger to collect all the materials for upgrading.What's more, he still has the god position, but he has never chosen to inherit it. If he follows him, he will be able to go to the god realm in a short time.

And following my own words, maybe I can only stay at the ninth level for the rest of my life, and I can't touch the threshold of the god level... Hehe...

But this is his.

Siegel raised his head and looked at the scene in front of him, his heart was suddenly filled with jealousy and anger.Thinking about it at the time, maybe it was just to punish his disobedient phantom beast. As if in revenge, he transformed a sharp blade from his palm, and stabbed it fiercely into his heart.

I know it hurts.

Siegel walked towards his phantom beast step by step. He deliberately shared all the pain with the phantom beast on the other side of his contract, and watched with satisfaction for the first time a look called pain appeared on the boy's face.

But after a short time, he regretted it.

Because at this moment, he was so like those manor owners who used to hate, in order to prevent disobedient servants from escaping, they chopped off their hands and feet.

"Xiao Xia." Siegel tried to smile softly, trying to relieve the pain and fear on the young man's face, and then gradually drew the pain onto himself, "Come with me and go home together, okay?"

He will definitely buy an extremely beautiful manor, plant many fruit seeds near the manor, and after the autumn harvest, he will cook many things he likes to eat for his little summer.

The author has something to say:

There is also a little tail left, and I think it is more appropriate to put it in the main text.

_(:зゝ∠)_

It’s best to end the episode here, otherwise I’m afraid that Siegel will beat someone...
