I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law
Chapter 139 Afternoon Story
Aimee looked at Bennett. She didn't expect him to say this. She felt a little touched, but more helpless.
There was a hint of tenderness on her face, and she said in a teasing tone:
"I thought you were going to say, kill the servants."
Bennett smiled bitterly and shook his head. Aimee was obviously teasing him and didn't want the atmosphere to be too depressing.
"What's the point of killing them? The castle needs people to run, and among the newcomers, how many can be trusted? It's better to keep them so that we can know them better."
Tears welled up in Aimee's eyes. She had been waiting for a Bennett like this for such a long time.
She looked into Bennett's gray eyes and gently stroked Bennett's hair, which, like Mervyn's, was full of signs of dryness.
After all, they are no longer what they used to be.
“If I were in the capital, I would have to go to the Duke’s investiture ceremony.
If I back down, it will not only be a disgrace to Iris, but the people in the territory will also feel resentful about it and they won't be able to keep the territory.
Bennett, the honor of a nobleman is more important than my life."
"I can pick you up on the day of the award ceremony and send you back after the ceremony is over. This way, we can create a time difference."
Bennett continued to persuade.
Ai Mei shook her head. She was worried but she wouldn't say anything.
Beth walked to Aimee's side. She had delivered many babies and naturally knew what these mothers were afraid of.
Golden lines covered her palm, and Beth moved it over Aimee's abdomen.
But Bennett simply slapped Beth's hand away.
"Don't you know your body temperature? Warm me up first."
Beth: “…”
Aimee smiled and looked at Beth, who looked helpless.
At Beth's level, she naturally cared little about body temperature. There was no way, Beth rubbed her palms, and only covered him with her hands when Bennett nodded.
Golden lines spread across her taut skin, and Beth's eyes glowed with gold.
A pregnant woman's uterus is very fragile. Bennett is not in good condition now and does not dare to forcibly examine the baby inside.
Beth knew the ropes; she was the best midwife in the village.
The golden lines extend all the way into the uterus, touching the fragile baby inside.
Beth sighed inwardly, Aimee was right to worry.
Bennett was right to be cautious.
"This child has been poisoned. He is very fragile now and cannot withstand the turbulence of space conversion.
Even the slightest fluctuation of magic power would instantly turn him into a stillborn fetus."
Bennett has never dared to use magic to investigate because his violent magic may cause fetal deformity.
Worse still, it may directly lead to the death of the fetus.
Aimee sighed. She didn't have much talent as a knight, and Bennett had more talent as a mage. It was impossible for either of them to give birth to a naturally strong embryo.
Now Beth's verdict has made this matter final.
Ai Mei gently stroked her belly, her eyes full of tenderness and love, and said:
"I'm still young. Let this child live a happy life. Let the territory be handed over to the third generation in the future."
Bnet nodded. His and Aimee's ideal was to live a carefree life. They might not be able to do it, but it might be a good thing to let their children do it.
He is the continuation of their lives, not only life, but also the realization of all good things.
Bennett stood up and gently straightened Aimee's clothes.
Beth, knowing Bennett couldn't see, put the blanket back on Aimee.
"Aimee, I need you to help me."
……
Now that things have come to this, Bennett no longer hesitated. What he should do most now is to improve his strength.
Before that, the problem he should solve most is his inability to see and hear.
Serra brought two biographies of knights from the Grand Duke's library.
These two biographies of knights are exactly the same.
Aimee took the knight's biography, flipped it open and examined it for a while. After confirming that the contents were exactly the same, she handed one of them to Bennett.
“That’s how you read to me when we were little.”
Bennett also had a smile on his face.
At that time, Ai Mei was full of tricks that trapped him tightly. Thinking about it now, it really feels weird.
Aimee's face also showed traces of memories. She gently turned to the first page, helped Bennett to open it as well, and began to read aloud:
"In the year 1325 of the Holy Elk, on a twilight land, the broken city walls fell to the side of the setting sun.
This place has just been ravaged by orcs, and everyone except D'Artagnan is dead..."
Bennett turned his eyes to the page in his hand. Aimee read slowly and clearly.
His mental power captured the vibration trajectory of the atoms, his ears listened to Aimee's voice, and his eyes looked at the blurry atomic aggregate in front of him.
The afternoon sun shines on the bed, leaving a special kind of warmth in this cold northern border.
Sera was leaning against the window, holding the knife, and she had fallen asleep.
During this period, not only Aimee was tired, she also had to stay awake day and night. Between Sera and Aimee, one had to be awake.
Helen was lying on the bed, leaning her head and looking at the two of them, with a cunning look in her eyes. She was thinking about how to use this incident to tease Aimee in the future.
Beth looked at Bennett, who could see Aimee's past. She could see everyone here except Bennett.
In Sera's memory, she didn't have a high opinion of Bennett, but after getting along with Bennett, she felt that Bennett should be more than that.
After reading Aimee's memory, Beth looked at Bennett again. Unexpectedly, he still had such an innocent side.
But when she saw Helen's memory, she didn't know what to say.
It was Bennett who pulled Helen up.
Beth looked at Helen. No wonder this woman looked at Bennett like that.
At first, she had given up on herself, but someone suddenly jumped out and told her loudly:
Even if you give up, I will not give up on you. I don't ask for anything in return, as long as you live well.
Beth couldn't comment on this matter.
But in Helen's opinion, this fool must be very handsome.
Bennett might have just been acting on impulse at the time, but he really saved the man by holding his head down.
Beth felt melancholy when she thought of her own experience.
Bennett to Beth: You set up the Kingdom of God on Earth? I don't care who you are, I think you deserve to die.
Although it has changed now, she still feels uncomfortable.
Aimee's voice slowly flowed through the room, and the people in the room each had their own thoughts.
And in Bennett's eyes, the floating atomic dust gradually showed its own unique rules in front of him.
A week later, Bennett pulled Helen into a corner.
"Helen, I trust you the most here."
Helen's heart was pounding. What are you going to do? Should I be reserved and agree, or should I agree directly? Oh, I'm so embarrassed. I'm so looking forward to it.
Bennett took out a necklace and said to Helen:
"If the castle is in danger of being breached, crush this gem immediately. Got it?"
Helen: "..."
The word "tool man" inexplicably appeared in Helen's mind.
