Personality V: I will save everything

This cup is really a cup......

Naib lowered his head and just kept looking at the cup in his hand. He had explained everything that needed to be explained, and he really didn't want to care about the rest.

Naib is now in the Dros Manor. After all, there were fires, explosions, and screams that night, and of course everyone in the manor was woken up.

Then Naib explained everything again under everyone's gaze.

After learning that Naib had been on guard for seven whole days and nights to protect his wife and children, Baron Dros immediately expressed his willingness to give Naib a generous reward, but Naib refused.

"I've already been paid. Frederick gave it to me. It's a double layer sea salt lemon cake."

Baron Delos was a shrewd man. He certainly knew how difficult this task was. What did it mean for a mercenary to only receive a so-called double-layer sea salt lemon cake as payment?

This gentleman named Naib Sabeda seems to be the same as Frederick. They belong to the same category of people, also people who are watched by God, so they receive such a low reward.

Moreover, the most important reason why Baron Dross made such a decision was... he had met Naib Sabeda before, during the incident at the racecourse. Not long after that, because Lucas was going crazy in the manor, no one was able to return to the manor, so they stayed in Baron Dross's manor, including Naib.

Although Naib Sabeda might have forgotten him a long time ago, Baron Dros still recognized him, so he naturally believed everything Naib said.

Even though Naib said he would not accept any money, Baron Dross still found a way to thank him.

In fact, he just asked the servants in the manor to bring out all the desserts in the kitchen to him.

Naib: It would be a waste if you don’t eat it. ?(ˉ﹃ ˉ?)

Naib appeared here like a whirlwind, and then began to eat like a whirlwind, as if he wanted to eat up all the edible food around him.

At the same time, people in the entire Delos Manor were busy like lit firecrackers.

Especially old man Balk, since he learned everything from Naib and personally escorted Orpheus back to the manor safely, he plunged into his laboratory and never came out again.

This made Baron DeRoss a little worried, so he quickly sent people to check the situation.

Not long after, the person sent hurried back and reported to Baron De Ross: "Baron, Mr. Balk said that he needs to be alone for a while. Please don't disturb him."

After hearing the news, Baron DeRoss nodded slightly to show his understanding.

Indeed, at this moment, old man Balke was in extreme irritation and anger, and the rage in his heart seemed to be about to burst out.

Whenever he thought about what almost happened, he felt that he would never be able to rest in peace unless he could transform every tree in the Forest of No Return into a powerful weapon.

He clenched his fists, paced back and forth in the laboratory, muttering to himself, as if he was thinking about how to realize his crazy idea.

.............................................................

Bane was almost going crazy at this moment. Naib just told him to stay in the cabin until the end of the seventh night. He did not tell him what terrible things were going to happen during these seven days.

But now he knew, he could not forgive those poachers, he finally understood why Master Frederick said that to him————

[Kindness is a virtue, but you should not be kind to everyone. Being kind to good people is a behavior that deserves praise, but being kind to bad people is stupid and can only be laughed at. Kindness should be reserved.]

He was absolutely right. I was really stupid. I almost hurt everyone. Not only did I die, but also Baron and Baroness Delos, Miss Alice, Master Orpheus, Black Nose, and every servant in the manor. Everyone died.

Master Frederick was absolutely right, kindness should be reserved.

He deeply realized that he had to make a change, and the most urgent task at the moment was to clean up all the extremely hateful traps left by poachers! Because these traps were like poisonous snakes hidden in the dark, constantly threatening the safety of the lives around them.

Even Ben had heard about the thrilling scene that happened last night. After hearing about it, he was filled with endless gratitude to the brave and fearless Mr. Neb Sabeida.

If Mr. Sabeda had not come to his rescue in time, Master Orpheus would have accidentally stepped on the deadly trap hidden in the woods - the animal trap.

When he thought of this, Bane couldn't help but feel a little scared.

At this moment, Bane was following the winding path, carefully searching for traps that were carefully buried by cunning poachers under layers of branches and fallen leaves.

Just as he was concentrating on searching, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the swing not far away from the corner of his eye.

That was the swing he had made with love for the beautiful and kind Miss Alice!

Memories suddenly flooded into his mind like a tide. He clearly remembered that when Miss Alice first saw the swing, the joyful smile on her face was as beautiful as a flower blooming in spring; he also could not forget the warm scene when Master Aoife came to accompany Miss Alice to play here.

"Miss... Master..." Bane murmured to himself, his voice full of affection and determination, "I will never let any misfortune befall you. Even if it costs me everything, I will protect this beauty!"

.................................................. ...............

In the Delos Manor, everyone seemed to have seen through the event that had not yet happened, but only the young and innocent Alice remained outside of the situation.

After all, for a child this young, such a thing is too cruel and heavy.

While everyone was busy, Naib knew that before explaining everything to everyone, he needed to properly settle Alice.

So he quickly found a suitable excuse and gently told Alice:

"Dear little Alice, there is Orpheus who is crying sadly over there. I think you, who are kind and lovely, will be able to bring him warmth and comfort. Please take him back to the room now."

After hearing this, the well-behaved and sensible Alice nodded without hesitation, and then walked towards Orpheus with brisk steps.

Just like that, Alice became the only one who didn't understand what was going on.

All she knew was that after the arrival of her uncle named Naib Sabeda, the originally peaceful and tranquil manor suddenly became busy.

Those adults who were always smiling and amiable on weekdays now looked solemn and hurried, as if an invisible pressure was hanging over the entire manor.

The innocent Alice is like a carefree little bird, flying through this tense and depressing atmosphere, completely unaware of the crises and secrets hidden in it.

Alice didn't know what happened, but Orpheus knew. He also understood why Uncle Neb Sabeda asked him to go back to the room with Alice. It was to prevent Alice from knowing about this too early.

He could understand, but then he would have no one to talk to.

He was scared.

During these long and tense seven days, a series of events that should have happened hung over Orpheus' heart like a dark cloud, plunging him into extreme fear.

The fear was so intense that he could hardly take a step out of his room, as if countless unknown horrors and dangers were hidden outside the door.

At the same time, he didn't dare to face anyone. Even a brief eye contact would make his heart beat faster and his breathing quicken.

The DeRosses naturally would not turn a blind eye to Orpheus's abnormal condition.

They looked at the child who was consumed by fear with concern, trying to give him some comfort through words and actions.

However, despite their best efforts, they still could not heal the fear trauma deep in Orpheus' heart.

After all, there are still too many urgent problems facing them at this time - the hidden dangers that may lead to tragedy are approaching step by step, forcing them to devote all their energy to trying to prevent this disaster.

As a result, in the days of busyness and anxiety, they inadvertently neglected the in-depth care and effective intervention of Orpheus's mental state.

Until Naib couldn't stand it anymore. If the situation continued to develop like this, the child would definitely be suffocated.

Naib might be Orpheus, the only person he allowed to get close to him besides Alice and the Dross couple. After all, in his mind, Naib might have come to help them, and no one would hurt him.

"I know you are scared, but hiding is not the only solution......."

As Naib spoke, he sat on the bed and reached out to touch Orpheus' head.

Orpheus sat on the bed with his head buried in his knees, and it was obvious that he didn't want to see anyone right now.

"There is no shame in being afraid, Orpheus. I was afraid too, very afraid..."

In fact, Naib didn't want to say what was next. He was almost forgetting these memories.

"I've been to a battlefield, a real battlefield. You know, a battlefield is very cruel. There are too few descriptions of it in newspapers. It's not real enough. Can you imagine such a scene?

The roar of planes, the sound of artillery fire, and the possibility that the comrade who was talking and laughing with you in the last second may die in front of you in the next second.

In a place like that, your life is threatened all the time. It is impossible for anyone not to be afraid. I was also afraid at the time, but I knew I couldn't retreat because I had my home, my family, and my mother behind me. "

At this moment, Orpheus's head, which had been drooping, slowly rose up. His originally dull eyes gradually regained some of their spirit, and his gaze began to focus on Naib who was speaking.

At this time, Naib looked at Orpheus seriously and continued:

“I am very aware of what is happening right now, and I believe you are also feeling deep fear in your heart. However, it is precisely in such difficult times that we need to face and overcome this fear bravely, isn’t it?

Think back to when I was a kid. I was also shrouded in endless fear. But even in such a terrifying situation, I never backed down! The reason was that my family, whom I loved and cared about, stood behind me. "

".............." Orpheus looked at Naib, not knowing what to say. In the end, he just said, "Thank you."

Whether it was to comfort him or to reveal his past scars, Orpheus should thank Neb.

Naib raised the corner of his mouth slightly, without saying much, he stretched out his hand and ruffled Orpheus's soft hair a little roughly.

"Hey, little guy, I want to show you my medal!" Naib suddenly said, with a hint of mystery and pride in his voice.

Hearing this, Orpheus' eyes suddenly lit up, and he wondered with joy, could it be the kind of medal that is truly awarded by the country, symbolizing glory and bravery?

However, what he never expected was that Naib took off his upper body clothes swiftly, and what appeared before his eyes was not a glittering metal medal, but a series of shocking bullet scars.

The scars crisscrossed across Naib's broad and strong chest. Some had healed to leave only faint marks, but most of them still looked hideous, as if silently telling of the fierce battles and life-and-death moments he had experienced.

Orpheus opened his eyes wide, staring blankly at the scars, forgetting to breathe for a moment, and a strong shock and pain surged involuntarily in his heart - just by looking at it from a distance, he could feel the pain deep in his bones.

"War is very cruel. I was about your age at that time. Be brave, little one. What is happening now is not as terrible as you think."
