Weapons possessing abilities are not rare in this era, but they are limited to magic weapons. Like Allen’s slaughter once, now it’s destroyed. Activate the Rubik's Cube sequence through the input source force, so that the weapon has a certain nature of ability. The Devil's Praise is definitely not a magic weapon. During the few days in Sundar Town, Allen had checked the dagger in idle time.
It is not like a magic weapon. It has detachable components and naturally there will be no Rubik's Cube sequence. More importantly, this dagger is integrated. Alan couldn't find a gap between the blade, the handle and even the demon gem at the end, which made the boy unable to imagine how it was cast.
Going back to the ability aspect, Alan and the killer were desperate at the time, and their spirit was basically focused on combat. Therefore, many details were ignored before. Until the killer caught the demon's praise, Alan could clearly feel that the killer's blood source power was absorbed by the dagger, and a trace of pure life source power was absorbed by some unknown method. Guide it into your body.
That is the power that is infinitely close to the origin of life without any attributes. It was full of vitality, and as soon as it entered Alan's body, it eased his injury. That feeling was like Ellen's direct use of a dagger to extract the vitality of the other party, full of evil smell.
The dagger is like a mystery, so the man who praised the devil to his mother is a huge mystery.
Who is he? Is the devil's praise his own, or where did he get it? A series of questions almost squeezed Little Allen's head, and a feeling of exhaustion hit him. He yawned and finally fell asleep.
Alan slept deeply, the night fell quietly outside the window, and the boy still didn't feel anything. The ward was shining with soft lights, and the devil’s praise was quietly resting on the table. The picture in the room seemed to be frozen at one point. Time no longer passed, and the picture remained unchanged. Until the demon gem at the end of the dagger suddenly flashed a light red light, at the same time, the door quietly opened.
Horn came in, his footsteps falling silent. Putting the felt hat and crutches aside, he sat down in front of Alan's bed and looked at the side of the sleeping boy on the bed. The profile of that profile made Horne seem to see his daughter Lanni, so his chest hurt slightly for no reason.
The patriarch of Bethkod just sat so quietly without waking Alan.
Allen woke up suddenly, and when he turned over and sat up, Hoth had already left. On the bedside table was a glass cup filled with warm water, and a faint heat of smoke was rising. Looking at this cup, Alan seemed to understand something.
During the hospital stay, Alan had many guests. Adele and Regis are basically regulars, the former always reminds Alan how timely her bombardment was and how tragic the killer was. In the end, he would look at Allen with flashing eyes, and then point to a certain product on some fashion electronic publications to express how much he liked. So today, Alan’s electronic bill has some gadgets that Adele likes; as for Regis, he is very concerned about Alan’s body, but every time he greets, he will inevitably add "true "I want to fight you again" and so on, so Allen inevitably guessed the real meaning behind his greetings and concerns.
There are other people in the family who have come to visit Alan, and Kodoff has come a lot. And every time he came, Allen noticed that the female companion he was carrying was different, and Kodov also cared about Allen's body. The slight difference from Regis is that he always says: "Brother, get better soon. You look like you, it's not easy to meet girls."
The captain of the guard, Barney, also came once, and it was a solemn meeting. That day Allen took two nameplates from Barney, which were the names of Arnold and Diman. During the attack that day, Arnold died on the spot. Diman was shot in the chest, and although he died on the spot, he could not make it to the hospital, so he died on the way.
Barney told him that the family had just paid a pension to the families of the two deceased. But for him, returning these two nameplates to his family is what really makes him sad.
After Barney left, Allen didn't say a word all afternoon.
Back to Fort Ugal, it was already a month after the attack.
"Master, I'll put your things here for you." The butler Heising asked several male servants to put Ellen's clothes and Wu's suitcase neatly in the living room, and said: "Master asked me to tell you this week. Take a good rest. Next week, you will get a report from Dawn's Blade, and the master has already handled the relevant formalities for enrollment for you."
"I see, thank you, Mr. Heising." Allen nodded.
"Then it's okay, I'll leave first."
"Please wait a moment." Allen called to him. "Can you call Barney for me?"
Haising looked at him, nodded and said, "After 10 minutes, you can see him in the training area."
When Allen came to the family training area, before seeing Barney, he bumped into Regis. Regis saw him yelling for joy, and ran over and dragged his hand and said, "Go, Allen. Let's fight a fight and see if you have been lying down in the hospital for a month. Rust."
"Another day." Allen stopped him and said, "I'm here to find Barney."
Upon seeing this, Regis had to let go and say, "Then I will practice by myself."
After taking two steps, he turned around and said: "Alan, they are family warriors. From the moment every warrior joins the family, he has been prepared to sacrifice for the family. Accordingly, the family will provide them with channels for promotion. Give their families a good living environment. If they die in battle, the family will give subsidies and take proper care of their families. So, you don’t need to care too much.
After saying this, Regis left right away. Allen smiled bitterly at it, why didn't he know this. But for Regis, Arnold and Diman are just family warriors, and it is only natural to sacrifice for the master when necessary. But he was never born in this ancient family, and he couldn't have the same idea as Regis.
For Allen, it was a killing game against him. Arnold and Diman are innocent and are involved. They will die because they are walking with themselves. So for Allen, he felt that he indirectly killed two fighters.
"Master Regis is right." Barney's voice sounded behind: "Master Ellen, you don't really need to care too much about Arnold and Diman."
Allen turned around and asked, "Did you return the nameplate to the family?"
Barney smiled bitterly: "Just about to send it."
"Then, take me."
Like other family guards, Arnold and Diman's family are also in the town of Levin. Barney took Alan to visit the two families, and Alan watched silently throughout the process. Arnold is the father of three children, the youngest of which is only two years old, and is still in the arms of his mother. When the mother took over Arnold's nameplate, she was crying.
As for Diman, he has not yet married. There is only one elderly mother in the family. When receiving the Diman nameplate, the old man did not cry, but sighed sadly.
For Bethkode, it may just be that there are two less powerful guards, but judging from the huge number of family guards, the death of two people is actually irrelevant. However, for the two families, they will never see their loved ones anymore and can only remember them from photos or memories.
And this is just a guard sacrificed in a surface mission. Looking at the history of Beskard's family, how many guards should be sacrificed for this family? Allen thought that might be a suffocating figure. Under the foundation of Ugalle Castle, whether there were many bones buried under the foundation. In the Outland, how many sacrificed soldiers could not return to their hometown?
On the way home, Allen was silent. When he saw Ugalle Castle again, he had a whole new concept of family.
"Master, are you okay?" Barney looked at Alan with some worry~EbookFREE.me~ He looked so different from the young masters in other families. At least, Nick had never seen a young master who would personally return the nameplate of the dead guard to his family. But I have to say that this young master's actions won his respect, not to mention that the emotions that he showed in his eyes along the way were not artificial, but genuine.
Allen shook his head and took a deep breath: "I'm fine, thank you for allowing me to participate in these things today. These things have taught me a vivid lesson, at least let me understand, every command in the future, every Action, what kind of responsibility should I bear."
"As for Arnold and Diman, this is not the case. They are fighters. Even if they are to die, the battlefield is their home, rather than inexplicably dying under a cold gun." Allen raised his head. Looking up at the towering castle: "I know that I am currently limited in my ability and cannot make any response. But no matter how long time passes, I will give them an answer. The person who instigated all of this behind will one day, he must pay for it. !"
Barney's body shook slightly, looking at the young boy's still slightly thin back, he seemed to see another Horn. Horn was able to expedition to Yodon, leaving behind unparalleled fame, and pushing Bethkoder to the top in one fell swoop. To be able to do this, Horn and his thirteen secret samurai naturally contributed the most. But the key lies in Horn's imperial way.
He is not like other family patriarchs, who treats family warriors as consumables, or even numbers. Horn regards every warrior as a comrade, a partner, and the thirteen secret warriors as close friends. It is precisely because of these close connections that Horn's family army can exert extraordinary combat power at that time and plant Bethkod's Lion and Eagle Battle Standard in the chaotic battlefield of the Yorton Star Territory!
For a family warrior like Barney, it is no regrets for a warrior to die for a confidant.
