Chapter 8: Chapter 8: The Secret That Cannot Be Told
The Dark Moon City at night seemed to be as peaceful as ever. The streets and alleys, although there were not many people. However, the taverns today were exceptionally lively. The owner of each tavern said that the Duke had rewarded the soldiers who defended the city today and all the people who participated in the war. He specially ordered that all soldiers or civilians who came to drink would be exempted from paying for their drinks.
With such favourable treatment, it would be foolish not to go.
In almost every tavern, there were people proclaiming their achievements. Some even said that the Earth Dragon Beast or the Black Flame Panther was killed by themselves. Even if they knew it was bragging, no one would say anything.
As a clan member who was injured fighting to defend his homeland, even how he bragged about it, he would just laugh it off. At least, at that time, he tried his best. It was also very heroic to have stood and fought in a place as tragic as that.
However, when an extremely majestic big man, suddenly asked, ''In these three years, every year has come the magical beasts. However, the previous years have not heard of such a practice, in the end what is going on?'
With such a question, the entire noisy tavern suddenly went cold. All the people, looked at each other in disbelief, not knowing what was going on. Those who had originally heard this, on the other hand, began to furrow their brows.
It seemed as if, a very important matter had been encountered.
'You guys, do you think it's related to that city magistrate! Have you noticed that ever since he came, the magical beasts came right away! Moreover, every time the magical beasts come, surprisingly, he is not there. Don't you think that it's too coincidental?' A strong man who looked, well, naive frowned his large thick eyebrows and calmly said.
After these words came out, all of them were stunned. Immediately, the unwarranted words increased even more.
'Don't say if it is or not, the way I see it, it's definitely this guy who messed up!'
'En ... has a point, to say the least, it's not a general coincidence. Every time is not in, you guys say, could it be that he pulled the wife of that Demon King Beast, and after forcing it on, he was hunted down and killed! Otherwise ... you guys say, why does such a large group of demonic beasts come every time. This time, even the high level magical beasts came out. If it wasn't for Lord Duke and Her Royal Highness making a move, perhaps ... hey ...'
This person was rather treacherous looking, firstly, he was oily, and then, after lamenting, he actually began to snicker again. This topic, however, was hilarious. Immediately, another person stood up: ''I see, it's definitely that city magistrate who is good for that bite. Originally, didn't he fail to catch up with our Duke Lord! I think, it's because of this reason that gave him perverted thoughts. En, definitely!'
After this skinny hanyou finished speaking, he also seemed to nod his head as if he was serious and confirmed.
'Haha, I think it's just like that. En... absolutely can't be wrong!'
'Right, right, right, wahahahaha ... Unexpectedly, that kid is even good at this!'
'...'
For a while, such a topic had unexpectedly become the mainstream topic amongst the entire tavern. A small handful of people began to sneer, or cut their thoughts in a whisper.
Of course, the protagonist was still that 'perverted' Lord City Magistrate!
At this moment, on the roof of a certain tavern. The cold wind was blowing in a particularly chilly manner, and it seemed that winter had already passed. Why would such a piercing cold wind appear on such a spring day?
'Sister, it seems that that boy's scheme really works. If, I were to be screwed over like this by you, perhaps, I would have left this city a long time ago!' Erin stood beside Xiya, covering her mouth and laughing while trembling.
Xiya still had the same cold face, after the corner of her mouth pursed, she faintly said, 'It's also necessary to do both, provoke them, let them start infighting, that's the most crucial! Moreover, en... time, let Nadas perform like a bit for me!'
After glancing towards Ayrin, Shia gently tapped the roof tiles. Immediately, it floated up with the wind. At that moment, the white moon in the sky was still there. In an instant, the silhouette blocked the light of the white moon and then disappeared.
Erin's mouth flattened as she looked at the moon tonight in boredom. Waving her head, she said to herself in a general manner, ''It seems that a good military advisor has really been found! It's just that I don't know, when the time comes, what will sister do to him! Hey ... hallowed Duke Palace, unexpectedly and those small nobles, the future road, still long ah!' Said, even also directly turned around and flew towards the palace.
...
The innermost part of the Duke's Palace, here, was originally considered a more secluded place. At the same time, it was also where the two dukes' chambers were located. However, today, there were two strangers dressed in shabby clothes.
Beside a piece of secluded lake, a seemingly very simple and small wooden house. The front door of the wooden house was directly facing the lake. At the same time, the corridor in front of it extended into the lake. Two feet stretched into the water, a breathable coldness came over, Lin Peng laughed after taking a deep breath, 'How about this, here, it's quieter!'
The little loli Angelina came out from behind the corridor, and also slowly made it to the corridor extending over the lake along with Lin Peng. After glancing around, she gave a slight nod of her head, and then gave a smile, 'En, not bad. A very secluded place, and, huh... element is very thick!'
'En? Elements?'
Lin Peng froze, not understanding what this little loli was talking about. At the same time, as soon as he came in here at the same time, he also felt that his body was particularly comfortable. There was a kind of, aura infused feeling coming.
'This ... you don't know what the elements are?' The corners of Little Lori's mouth were slightly twitching, and she was really a bit puzzled. From the very beginning, it was unknown why she appeared in the abyss. At the same time, also don't know, why their strength is so big. Moreover, it was also possible to eat fire. Now ... even don't even know what the elements are. All of this was too unbelievable.
Lin Peng had accidentally said something again. A frown turned into a bitter smile, ''To be honest, I still don't understand who I am until now. I just remember that my name is Lin Peng! Other than that, it seems like everything is out of my mind. It seems like, it's all unfamiliar to this world! Oh ... whether you believe it or not, anyway, hey ... I'm like this!'
The little loli Angelina was slightly stunned, and seemed to really believe it in general. Looking at Angelina's somewhat sympathetic face, the corners of Lin Peng's mouth, flashed a trace of imperceptible weirdness. 'Hehehe ... should cheat people once in a while! Otherwise, it really takes me for an alien!' After secretly saying this in his heart, he looked towards the full moon in the sky.
'I wonder, the moon back home, is it this full now!' Lin Peng suddenly sighed, and then, his eyes were a little bleak. After taking a deep breath, it turned into a smile.
Once upon a time, one was so fond of looking at the moon. But now, it seemed that one would never have the chance to look at the original moon again. However, the moon in this world, it really isn't generally round. Oh ... forever, it is all so round.
When a person is in another country, whenever there is a full moon, there is always a feeling of homesickness. However, Lin Peng is very tragic. This world as long as the night, see the full moon, so ...
However, the little loli Angelina was a little puzzled. Frowning her tiny and curved eyebrows, she asked, 'The moon in your place, there are other shapes?' Looking at Lin Peng with a bewildered face, it was obvious that he had spoken out of turn again.
Lin Peng's mouth was wide open, and after turning his eyebrows to a frown, he laughed, 'Do you believe it or not, there was once a world where he had a sun and a moon. However, the sun came out during the day. But the moon, was the one that appeared at night ...'
When she was about to explain, the little loli Angelina hastily stopped and sneered, 'This, isn't it the world of human beings? Humph ... human world, that is in the embrace of light. It's all just some sunny, hypocritical humans.'
However, listening to Lin Peng's ears, it was a great shock. The world of humans ... then ... this world, there are also humans? Or rather, humans also exist in this world in the same way as the demon world!
'This ... how do you know, the world of humans!' Lin Peng suddenly became interested in this topic. Of course, as a human, of course he would be interested in this topic.
Angelina cocked her head and stared at Lin Peng seriously. The eyes were extremely serious and, at the same time, carried a hint of doubt.
'Speaking of which, you are more human-like. There are no characteristics of the Demon Race, but the Demon Race, does not have black hair and black eyes like you. Likewise, amongst humans, there doesn't seem to be one either. And ... on your body, there is no kind of aura that is unique to the demon race. Oh ... what kind of person are you ... in the end? Why, would you also know about the human world?'
The little girl slowly stood up, and similarly looked at the bright moon in the sky. However, at this time, her, sudden eyes dimmed. It seemed, as if she had thought of something sad. Gradually, her chin, slightly wrinkled. At the same time, shoulders shrugged. Silent crying, came a little faster.
One's own knowledge of the human world was also because of the family. Anymore, the family, at that time, was also red hot. And ... perhaps, it was also because of that human's secret treasure that one's own family was truly destroyed!
But ... it seems, this man, also has a big secret ah! It's just that ... like himself, he doesn't want to say it! En ... himself does not want to say the same with him!
Lin Peng all of a sudden, the heart is soft. Tilted his head, a pulled over the little loli pressed on his chest: ''To cry, you have to cry loudly. Cry out all your unwillingness, all your anger, all your sadness, in one breath. Let yourself ... to the greatest extent, get the comfort in crying. Oh ... actually, I also want to cry ah!'
'Big man's, you still have the nerve to say cry!' The little loli choked, a pair of big eyes flashing with tears. Just staring at Lin Peng!
'It's not a sin for a man to cry ...'
The little loli froze and stared at Lin Peng when the bold song appeared. Tonight was particularly quiet, but ... also particularly warm!
