[Rebirth] Alien Royalty

Chapter 33

"Erlin, you said that you and Tania were exiled because Tania was naughty and hurt the master's child. Is that true?"

Four days ago, when there were only two people left in the office, Arnold walked up to the brunette and sat down.

Erlin lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly: "...Why did you ask about this matter?"

Arnold didn't look at her, but looked at the dark scene outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, and said, "After asking you, I have asked people to check whoever was able to track down the employer's family."

Erling's eyes widened slightly.

"The Safirs family, a third-class noble family of the Shmya Empire, lives in the seventh city star. It is a well-known kind-hearted family. The current host and hostess of Safirs have one son and two daughters, the youngest daughter After dying of unknown causes about two years ago, you and Tania were exiled."

"..."

Arnold raised his index finger and tapped on the arm of the chair: "Do you have anything to say about this matter?"

After a long silence, Erling took a deep breath and slowly covered his face with his hands.

Her back trembled, and her thin body seemed to collapse at any moment.

"...I thought it was just an accident," Erlin's hoarse voice sounded, "Although this is the second time something like this happened, I still hope it's just an accident."

Arnold put his gaze on the woman, lowered his eyes and said, "Can you tell me in detail what's going on?"

"...Five years ago, Tania and I were sent back to the slave market because... Tania hurt the master's child. Mr. Moldo's daughter was injured in the face by Tania, leaving behind a Although the scars can be removed through plastic surgery, Tania is a slave after all, but she did such a thing to her master...Mr. Moldo is very kind and did not exile us directly."

Erlin said slowly: "Afterwards, Tania and I were taken home by Mrs. Saffirs. Mrs. Saffirs treated us very well...they treated us like people of equal status , Although it is impossible to eat and live with them, Tania and I are treated much better than other slaves... I always think that we, mother and daughter, are very lucky to have met such kind-hearted families successively. But……"

Speaking of this, Erlin seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and there was a hint of crying in his voice.

"I don't know why this happened, I don't understand what Tania is thinking! Why does the same thing happen one after another! The youngest daughter of the Saffirs was pushed downstairs by Tania to die... If it wasn't an accident, then why would Tania do this?!"

After hearing what she said, Arnold sat aside and waited until her mood eased a little before saying, "Erlin, I have a proposal for you."

Erling looked at the dark-haired man with red eyes.

"The Black Eagle is coming back soon. This time it is their leader Cecil and a man named Xia Zuo. The reason why you can't understand her behavior on Tania's side is because you and her The inner world is different, rooted in her personality. You can’t educate her, and no one here can educate her. Only people like her can educate her.”

Erling understood Arnold's meaning and showed a look of astonishment.

"So my proposal to you is to hand over Tania to them."

"But they are the interstellar mercenary group!" Erlin dared not believe it.

"That's right, they are a mercenary group that has killed countless people and has a lot of blood on their hands." The green light in Arnold's eyes made Erlin calm down slightly, "So I said, this is just a proposal for you. I The proposal to you will not make Tania's life better, or even lead her on a bad path. But I hope you know that in this world, no matter how broad the "tolerance" is, it is not without scale. When she swells to a certain extent, she will kill herself. Therefore, as a person different from ordinary people, she must find another way to survive."

Erling fell silent, staring at Arnold blankly.

Arnold patted her on the shoulder, stood up and said, "You can think about it for a few days, you don't need to make a quick decision, and remember to ask Tania what she thinks."

After leaving the central building, Erling walked on the main road, feeling at a loss.

Another way to survive?

Erling didn't quite understand such things, and she didn't want to let her daughter go.

Although the occasional look in the girl's eyes made her feel strange and scary whenever she stared into the girl's eyes, it was her flesh and blood after all.

When he set foot on this dungeon, Erlin thought, maybe this is a new beginning.Now that they have ushered in a miracle, fate should not play tricks on them again and let them fall into hell again.

But...it seems that she is too naive.

"Tolerance" cannot be without scale. If the same thing happens again, Tania will not be able to escape punishment... because even a child can't use "she is a child" to escape the other party. The fact of hurting others again and again.

The choice is already there.

People like them, I'm afraid they will never be able to live a peaceful life.

It would be best if Tania could learn to protect herself, but she only hoped that her decision didn't push her daughter off the cliff with her own hands.

***

After hearing that Tania would leave with Black Eagle, Lu Xiao was a little shocked.

Although Tania's prank almost killed Sammy, it wouldn't be enough to throw her to the mercenary group, right?

This kind of thing couldn't have been thought up by Erlin himself, it must be Arnold——

"Aunt Erling..." Sammy's eyes rolled with tears, "patta" and "patta" fell one by one, "I'm sorry, it's all because of me..."

Erling was taken aback, walked over to wipe away Sami's tears, and smiled softly, "No, this is my own decision."

She moved her eyes to Lu Xiao, as if she knew what he was thinking, and said, "Mr. Arnold will not force me, he gave me time to think about it."

"...What did Tanya think of herself?"

"She..." Erlin sighed softly, "She didn't refuse either."

Although she didn't refuse, the girl never looked at her until the two parted.

Lu Xiao looked at the woman's lonely expression, and didn't know what to say.

After comforting Erlin a few more words, he sent Sammy home.

When seeing Sami, Liv looked like she was about to collapse, hugged him tightly, and thanked Lu Xiao.

Before Lu Xiao left, Sami tugged at the corner of his clothes, and asked cautiously if he could go to him again tomorrow, and Lu Xiao naturally agreed.

When Black Hawk came, it didn't attract too many people's attention, and when it left, it was also very quiet... maybe not.

For Lu Xiao, it was not so peaceful.

It's fine for the boss of the mercenary group to come to have a meal before leaving, why does he have to bring a subordinate with facial paralysis? !

It just so happened that Arnold didn't come tonight, and with the return of Sammy, another chair was added to the round table.

While eating, the red-haired man kept staring at Lu Xiao, so that he almost didn't even know how to use a fork.

"What are you looking at?" Finally, even Cecil became curious and couldn't help asking.

"It's just that I don't feel coordinated." Xia Zuo stuck a black "egg" with a fork and said blankly, "This is the food made by Bazel."

"Oh, there is indeed a very subtle feeling!" Cecil also approached and looked up at the egg.

Xia Zuo turned on the camera function of the communicator, and took a photo of the shiny egg on the fork.

Cecil yelled "I'm coming too", and approached Xia Zuo's face, with a piece of egg stuck in between them by a fork.Cecil grinned and showed his teeth, Xia Zuo was expressionless, and when the flashlight came on, they took a group photo with Xia Zuo's communicator.

——Should I still post meager!

Lu Xiao couldn't bear it and threw the fork angrily!

Brandy put down his fork and wiped his mouth with his handkerchief.

"Mr. Brandy, you didn't eat much today..." Levi managed to speak in an embarrassing tone.

"No appetite." Brandy said bluntly, got up and left.

Levy: "..."

After a meal, Lu Xiao went to wash the dishes.Sammy originally wanted to wash with him, but Lu Xiao chased him away after breaking a bowl.

After cleaning, Levi saw that the boss of the mercenary group was still picking his teeth, and his subordinates were still exploring other corners of the kitchen. He approached Lu Xiao and whispered, "Do you want me to stay with you?"

Glancing behind him, Lu Xiao sighed and said, "...No need, you go back first, I'm fine here."

"you sure?"

"Sure, go back and rest." Lu Xiao smiled at him.

"...Well then, see you tomorrow, Bazel." Levi said goodbye to Lu Xiao hesitantly, and left.

There was a sudden silence in the kitchen.

After washing the dishes and tableware, Lu Xiao cleaned up the kitchen counter, turned around, and met Cecil's eyes.

"Aren't you afraid that I will do something to you again?" Cecil smiled angrily.

"...Anyway, you almost killed me already." Lu Xiao rolled his eyes.

"Haha! It's not that exaggerated, you are still alive! But I still think you are very strange, you are not like Bazel at all."

"Really?" Lu Xiao perfunctorily took off his apron and hung it on the hook on the cabinet door.

Just as he was about to let go, a shadow fell, and with a "bang", one hand pressed against the cabinet door.

Lu Xiao suddenly raised his head, secretly startled.

——When did this guy come here!

Xia Zuo stood in the opposite corner, and he gave him a look at the sound.

"That's right, that's right, that's the look in your eyes," Cecil raised his chin slightly, and smiled very badly, "I really didn't expect that your eyes could make people feel abusive when they look like this." Want to come."

Lu Xiao's head groaned, and it completely collapsed: "You—are you kidding me!" He took several steps back with a face full of face.

"I'm not joking." Cecil's eyes were covered with a shadow, and there was an unusually sensational light in the dark pupils.

That light seemed to be an invisible thorn, about to pierce his heart.When Cecil took a step closer to him, the sense of crisis at that moment made Lu Xiao subconsciously draw out a part of his power body, gather together and attack Cecil——

Xia Zuo frowned suddenly, stood up straight, and stared at the blond man.

"Lu Xiao, calm down!" The rabbit's voice sounded suddenly, and the tentacles of the invisible power body stopped a millimeter away from Cecil's left chest.

"Huh?" Cecil seemed to sense something, and narrowed his eyes.

Lu Xiao broke out in a cold sweat.

He clenched his hands tightly and said hoarsely, "I hope that's just a joke, and please don't make this kind of joke again in the future."

"..." Cecil raised his eyebrows noncommittally.

"Just ignore what that idiot said, but you, Bazel," Xia Zuo said, "What are you going to do next? Are you going to be Arnold's prisoner obediently?"

"I thought you and Arnold were in a cooperative relationship." Lu Xiao glanced at him and said cautiously.

"Currently, that's right," Xia Zuo said lightly, "but Arnold can't bring us long-term benefits."

"So are you reaching out to me now?" Lu Xiao twitched his lips.

"Because your head is still an incredible treasure house." Cecil smiled.

"Your mercenary group doesn't earn good money, what's going on with those weird experiments all day long!" Lu Xiao frowned.

"Huh?" Cecil frowned, "Do you know the head bounty for each of our members?!"

"..."

"If I just want to make money, then I just need to stab that guy and I'll become a rich man!" Cecil said, pointing at Xia Zuo in the corner.

Xia Zuo was expressionless.

"..." Lu Xiaoyou looked away, and said dryly, "Even if you say that...don't forget what you did to me, and you still expect me to cooperate with you after I recover my memory?"

Xia Zuo said, "So as compensation and an invitation, we can give you some news here."

Lu Xiao was taken aback and looked at him.

The red-haired man said slowly: "First, the bounty for your head in the interstellar society has reached 20 billion Shmiya general currency, which is [-] million alliance currency."

"Second, your subordinate Warren Stuas hasn't come out since he returned to the main planet of Shimia. We got the news that he has been detained."

"Thirdly, many people have recently been looking for the pirates who stayed on the interstellar pirate ship 'Uudura'. We found out that one of the forces came from the Shmya Empire—it is very likely that your father sent them .”

"This is a little thought from Black Hawk—" Cecil raised the corners of his lips, "I said I was impatient to wait for your memory to recover, but I have changed my mind. You can think about it, from Arnold's I still have the ability to take you away."

The author has something to say: Does Cecil have the potential to be a rogue attack?
