The Amber Sword: Act 252 Overnight
The night before winter is always too early, Brando and the others travels three or four hours south of Martaha, and the sky darkens.
Tauchik's winter night is extraordinarily humid and cold. Although in the Dead Sea region, the ground will not freeze at night in this month, but the ground will become cold and hard. The swamp is filled with heavy fog, almost no wind, and insects It was also very quiet, almost weird, and occasionally there was a sound of water in the dark.
The bonfire is peeling and burning. Occasionally one or two sparkss jump out. The bright yellow light penetrates the fog very strongly. It can shine far away, but it will also cause unnecessary trouble. In addition to the Undead Ghosts in the beasts and swamps, there are mosquitoes in groups. Even in this season, there are still a lot of mosquitoes and mosquitoes coming through the light in the Tauchik area. Not too big.
Brando drives mosquitoes by hand while using Laws from time to time. Delphine air-dried fish and mushrooms by the bonfire. These ingredients are sourced locally. The craftsmanship of the prime minister's daughter is beyond imagination. Everyone at the scene tasted more or less and praised them. As the queen lady, Feng Huo only took a symbolic sip. Her diet has strict standards and she maintains the same self-discipline when going out.
However, she proposed to prepare some more for the occasional need. After all, everyone thought that the weird recipe of Shepherd Cultists in Martaha was taken for granted.
Red Moon Moya has risen from the west horizon. Fang Qi has not appeared yet. It seems that it will not appear until the appointed time.
Delphine removes a smoked fish from the grill, then hands it to Brando, and puts his chin in one direction in the dark. Brando understood what she meant, but she was a little surprised and glanced at her.
"Why, who do you think I am a vicious woman full of calculations?" prime minister's daughter smiled slightly and asked in a joking tone.
"Is there anything worth little girl for you to calculate?" Regarding prime minister's daughter, Brando is not polite at all. Although the two were close relatives, what happened on the ship that day. There has always been a layer of separation in Brando's heart.
To be precise, he has no love with Delphine, only desire, and since then. Because he deliberately kept his distance, even this connection between the two was much weaker. Brando doesn't know how Delphine thinks about it. Maybe she doesn't care at all, but he cares so much. When faced with this prime minister's daughter. There will always be a twist.
His bluntness is also to cover up the embarrassment.
Delphine smiled slightly, as if she didn't care, and handed the wooden sign in her hand: "From town to here, she hasn't eaten anything yet."
"Delphine," Brando said suddenly: "The status of Kirrlutz Empire is unknown today, we do n’t even know if your father and grandfather are still alive. I ’ll tell you the truth, the war with Dragon of Twilight is actually impossible for me to see what the future looks like. What I can do is to do everything possible to protect Aouine and the people around me. And to fulfill that promise to Queen Madara, you should see that already, I cannot give you too much guarantee to become the king of Vaunde, reconstruction Empire, I ca n’t do it. "
There is a bonfire between the two. Mr. Liu is on guard outside the camp. Feng Huo has already entered the one's own tent to rest. Magdelle needs to practice meditation and communication. Mana. There are only two people in the for a moment camp talking.
"And then. What does the adult want to say?"
"I want to say, you don't have to be like this," Brando sighed. "You know who I am, if you want anything. You can try to speak straight. Although you have given me a lot of trouble, But in the past two months, your efforts and Medissa are also in my eyes. Let the grievances between us be a thing of the past. If you are willing to abandon the former suspects, I can help you like a friend. I Means, within my ability, I will does its best. "
"My grown-up means, I don't have to tie myself to you and laugh at you every day. I should pursue the path I want, right?"
"I didn't mean that, Delphine."
"No, you mean that, lord, I know, you are sorry for me," Delphine replied with a smile: "Adult, do you think that playing with me like a cat and mouse game is too tired, already doesn't want to Continue playing? "
"Well, I admit that you are right, but Delphine, the grievance between us originated from a misunderstanding. I said, I won't apologize to you for your fiance's death, because it was never about me. Thing. But I can apologize for the damage that caused your body and mind after that, maybe we will take a step back at the time of Fir Tree Shire, and the situation will not become what it is now. "
"What about Romaine Young Lady? What do I do to Romaine Young Lady, don't you hate me?" Delphine asked softly.
"You don't need to anger me, because I used to want to kill you because of Romaine's, and I also want to give you an equally unforgettable lesson, but after that, too many things happened that I didn't expect," Brando shook his head: " To be honest, I don't know what to do to face you. On the one hand, you are my enemy, Delphine Young Lady, but on the other hand, I also damaged you. "
"Do you really think you are damaged me?"
Brando nodded without hesitation.
"You are an honest but naive person," Delphine replied, "But you still don't understand, what kind of path do you want me to pursue? Leave you and go back to the conspiracy and trickery of the past , Is that what you think I should live? "
She shook her head: "Why do you think I am laughing and smiling? In fact, these days are the easiest and truest days I have ever had. After we return to the Empire, I do n’t understand what choices I will make. , But at least here, I feel real and happy. "
Brando froze.
prime minister's daughter suddenly sighed one breath quietly. She put the smoked fish back on the grill, then stood up, picked up the one's own backpack beside the campfire, took out a blanket from the inside, walked over, and handed it to Brando. on.
Brando saw the blanket for a moment, and he remembered that when he was in the north of Rosalin, he used this blanket to cover prime minister's daughter. At that time he thought she was already asleep, but did not expect prime minister's daughter Just pretending to sleep.
He looked at the blanket in his hand. Delphine kept the blanket very well. Even in the swamp environment, the blanket was very dry and tidy, and folded very neatly, and each side was finely aligned.
"Sorry, my unrealistic dream should indeed wake up. In the long dreamland of the elemental border, the terrible things I saw made me weak." Delphine replied quietly. : "Since these days, I have renounced myself, and that ’s why such ridiculous things happen. I am sorry for my fiance, and I am sorry for my adults. I thought that mistakes would disappear with time. Can't change reality ... "
"Delphine Young Lady."
Delphine shook his head: "You do not need to persuade me, you are right, when I return to Aouine, I will look for the road that belongs to one's own. You and Medissa Young Lady are both upright people, but this does not belong to me, I The idea of one's own should not be imposed on others, although I use all kinds of despicable means to force you to agree, but unfortunately if it is not your original heart, it does not make any sense ... I, Delphine, the daughter of Nederhoven, and You do n’t need to rely on the charity of others to succeed.
Delphine put the one's own bag down, then picked up the smoked fish from the grill again, and replied, "Sir, thank you for not taking my fault. I will has done everything possible to help you get the natural orb. This is my last time. Help you by your side, because this is an apology in my heart, I must make up for my mistake "
"But I know this is not enough. If the adult still wants my life, I will never mind," she replied, pointing to her white neck, "My head is here, always for the adult Ready. "
"Delphine Young Lady, you know I didn't mean that."
prime minister's daughter smiled bitterly: "could it be that, will the adult even trample on my last dignity as the eldest daughter of the Nederhoven family?"
Brando had to shut up. He looked at this damsel with some emotion in his heart. Perhaps even if the other party revealed the true feelings, he still couldn't believe it because it might be another attempt to escape.
However, even though he knew that this might be the other person's pretense, when Delphine said that, he still felt a bit lost in his heart.
However, Delphine no longer explained it, handing the grilled fish in his hand, saying, "Any wayward and scheming woman will have a sense of concealment. She has not dripped from noon until now. Bumps are full of stones. "
"Stone?"
Brando was taken aback.
"That's a boney little girl, you won't understand her, but I understand, because I saw my former self from her," Delphine replied softly: "But I'm happier than her, I At least there are relatives. "
"One thing you were wrong, Delphine Young Lady," Brando whispered: "She also has relatives. I think she has at least one sister or sister, and their mother should be alive or maybe alive."
"Do you know her?" Delphine suddenly looked: "Related to Medissa Young Lady?"
Brando nodded. He had already seen the head of prime minister's daughter, so he was not surprised by her reaction. However, he did not continue to explain, because he was not completely sure about the opponent's identity.
