Light Spirit Epic Chapter 2538: Breakthrough (31)
Chapter 2538 Parting ways to the deviance (thirty-one)
Meanwhile(?), around 7.50am, in a dilapidated apartment in Edinburgh's old town.
"Beep---beep---beep---, beep---beep---beep---" A series of alarms went off, waking Sabo awake.
He opened his eyes and looked at the alarm clock on the bedside. The first thought was that he felt that he was going to be late and almost jumped out of bed in a hurry. However, after thinking about it again, he remembered that his boss, Daniel, had actually given him a whole week's vacation, and he didn't have to report to the Knights today at all. So there is no need to worry about getting up at this hour, there is no need to be afraid of being late.
"Um...what am I doing..." The bunny boy turned around from the bed and covered his face. He was even ashamed of himself for being so surprised at everything. He should obviously be a soldier, a knight in the knight order. But since when did he become such a "social animal", getting up and going to work on time every day, honestly doing some mundane and humble jobs in a "company" called the Knights of Great Britain, and that's it To linger on each day with neither hope nor dream?
Is this really good? Sometimes he couldn't help but think so. But what choice did he have. Just being "alive" has exhausted all his energy, and he can't even live well. Being plagued by illness, he will die without surgery, and the cost of that surgery is terrifyingly high.
That's right, his boss, Daniel the Silver Knight, had said that he had already secured funding for the operation from the Knights, and that he would be able to operate soon, and then he would finally have a chance to survive.
And then what?
Just survive. Still staying in the Knights, with no hope of promotion and no considerable salary, just being so ordinary and boring, in this humble position, for the rest of your life?
I have survived, and I just survived, and I still have no dreams and no hope.
Sabo buried his head under the pillow for a long time, and he even had the urge to get out of bed. What if it was all a dream. If only he hadn't left the Underdark from the very beginning, even though he was poor, he would have stayed with his mother in the land of the orcs.
I came to Great Britain with my mother, hoping to win the chance to treat my mother's illness. Is it really a wrong choice? As a result, his mother was gone, and he was stuck in such a hellish place, suffering from human discrimination, with no dreams and no hope.
Even the place to go back is lost.
Damn...
Knock knock knock. The gray rabbit youth's contemplation was interrupted by a knock on the door outside.
"Are you awake, Big Brother Sabo?" Mason's voice, a mysterious teenager temporarily staying at his house, came from outside the door: "I made breakfast. If you wake up, would you like to eat?"
"...don't eat." Sabo whispered, "My surgery is likely to be scheduled within today, maybe they will send me to the operating table tonight. Before such a major operation, it is said to be fasting."
"Oh, I see." Mason replied, "In that case...I'll make you something to drink. Something should be fine, right?"
"...Then there is work." The young gray rabbit replied. He was indeed a little thirsty. And just thinking about having to stop eating from now on until the operation starts is a little scary to him. That means he has to be hungry all day...really not going to faint?
Sabo lazily got up from the bed, went to freshen up, and then walked into the living room. Just as he sat down to drink a glass of milk on the table, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and half a second later, there was a burst of silence. Knock on the door quickly.
Mason, who was busy in the kitchen, turned to exchange a glance with Sabo.
"I'll answer the door." Sabo stood up and said, knowing that Mason wasn't easily seen by outsiders.
"Here." He walked to the door, glanced through the door, and the person outside the door was indeed Daniel.
"So early...?" he asked as he opened the door.
"Well, there are some documents that you need to sign, and then the formalities are completed." The silver knight boy unceremoniously pushed the door into Sabo's room, sat down, and took advantage of the situation with a backpack on his back. on the chair next to it. The backpack was packed, and there seemed to be a lot of belongings in it.
"Uh...what does this mean?" Sabo took the document Daniel handed over, and glanced nervously at Daniel's backpack. Something seemed to emerge from the corner of Daniel's backpack, which appeared to be a sleeping bag for camping.
"As I said, I'll move to your house from today." Daniel said, "I planned to build a floor here, so of course I brought a sleeping bag."
"I understand the truth, but do you move everything in like you're moving all at once..." Sabo was still a little unacceptable. After all, he and Daniel had not known each other for long. Even though Daniel was his immediate boss in the Knights, it felt strange to have such a stranger live in the same room with him all of a sudden.
But then again, why didn't he have this strange feeling when he took in the mysterious young Mason? Is it because Mason looks weak and innocuous, while Daniel looks stronger, ready to shove Sabo to the ground if he wants to?
"I know what you are worrying about, but I also said that after the operation you will be very weak, you can't even get out of bed, you really need someone to take care of you------"
"It's enough for Big Brother Sabo to take care of me." Mason suddenly ran out of the room, interrupting Daniel's words.
"You?" Daniel glanced at the blond boy and sneered, "I'm being honest, kid. You don't even seem to take care of yourself, so it's fine if you don't cause Sabo any trouble, let alone Take care of others."
"It's not your turn to intervene in this matter, Lord Silver Knight of Great Britain." Mason pushed back unceremoniously: "What, is the Knights short of manpower or funds, for a knight who has undergone surgery I can't even arrange a hospital stay, and I can't even arrange a nurse for this knight, so I have to let a dignified silver knight take care of my subordinates? This is unreasonable no matter how you look at it."
"No, Sabo has a special reason to not be hospitalized and arrange a nurse, so I came." Daniel replied, "This is Sabo's own wish, why don't you confirm it with him?"
"Really, Big Brother Sabo?" Mason looked at the Gray Bunny with a fierce look he had never seen before, as if questioning Sabo.
"Um...that's what happened..."
"...so you still don't believe me," Mason said.
"Isn't this nonsense?" Daniel interjected mercilessly, "Who would go to the hospital at such a time and let a guy of unknown origin like you occupy his hometown and do whatever he wants?"
"Wait, you said that a little too much..." Sabo wanted to interrupt.
" And the Knights of Great Britain are not a charitable organization. The Knights' willingness to pay for this guy's surgery is already very lenient. You also plan to let the Knights pay for his hospitalization and pay for a private nurse to take care of him. His postoperative routine? It's too beautiful to think about." Daniel continued.
"Hello..." Sabo's forehead dripped with sweat.
"Even so," Mason said still, "I still don't think you, as his boss, should live in his house at a time like this. Are you a Silver Knight? There are a lot of black iron knights at your disposal, right? Wouldn’t it be better to let those black iron knights of the same level as Big Brother Sabo come to take care of him? Why does it have to be you? What is your relationship with Big Brother Sabo??”
"Is that a question?" Daniel hummed.
"Wait, wait a second!" Sabo was afraid that Daniel would tell the secret between them, and he also told the story of the previous attack on the Death Scorpion thieves, and hurriedly stopped him.
"He's my ex-boyfriend. Is that all right?"
"Pfft---------!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sabo nearly squirted out all the milk he drank.
"What the hell!" he yelled.
"I'm too embarrassed to admit it yet?" Daniel looked at Sabo and said calmly, "There aren't many people here, so just admit it honestly. You guys always have a crush on boys younger than you. Sick obsession, that's what it used to be for me, and now you're taking this guy for the same reason, aren't you?"
"I didn't expect you to be such a person, Big Brother Sabo..." Mason suddenly looked at Sabo with a very strange look.
"Nonsense!!" The gray rabbit man said angrily, grabbing Daniel's collar: "You! Come with me!! Immediately!!"
He then pulled and pulled Daniel into his room and slammed the door shut.
"Why did you say that?!" In the room, Sabo angrily said in a loud voice that would not be heard by the outside world: "You've been heard saying that, isn't it smearing my innocence out of thin air? !"
"I'm doing this for your own good, Sabo." Daniel said calmly: "That kid is obviously interested in you, don't you see that? And I'm just making things clear now, so that he can This heart is dead to you."
"But I'm not a base!" Sabo said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, Mason knows, if he talks nonsense outside in the future, isn't my reputation..."
"What are you afraid of? He's just a passing visitor in your life, and he's still living in your house in secret, probably avoiding someone."
"Mason is my cousin------"
"Oh, put away your bullshit, Sabo, you knew I wouldn't believe it," Daniel interrupted, as if he had seen it all.
"...Ok." Sabo is like a deflated ball: "He's really hiding from someone, and I'm just nosy~IndoMTL.com~Let him stay here for a while A few days. Don't ask any more."
"I'm not interested in knowing who that guy is if I don't ask." Daniel gave Sabo a white look: "I just need to help you keep our [common secret]. Live at your house, say The lie just now, I think it's all something that must be done to keep the secret, that's all."
"But you still sully my innocence..." Sabo said in disapproval.
"Listen, that kid and you are two completely different worlds." The silver knight boy said again: "Now you may let him live in your house temporarily, making you mistakenly think that you are very close to him. . But in reality? After the temporary residence period is over, he will leave here and never come back. Just as he is a passing guest in your life, you are also a passing guest in his life, it is estimated that a few Weeks, months, and years have passed, and he doesn't even remember what you look like, how can he remember this little **** he heard today?"
"That's true, but..."
Is the relationship between people really just passing by?
If that's the case, it's too lonely.
