Ariatis smiled bitterly. He held Sally in his arms and said softly: "Sally, do you know that our ancestors were a group of lowly slaves. Back then we didn't even have names... …At that time, we were satisfied with enough food and clothing every day, but we had to endure a life of hunger and cold. We were driven out of the royal city, fled into the mountains, and were finally forced to jump into the river to survive.”
Sally was startled, "You... you said that you were born as slaves. 11
Ariatis shook his head, "That was true...but one day, a group of nobles appeared and took us in."
"They helped us build this city, gave us food, money...even taught us magic and imparted knowledge to us.
Sally frowned, "These nobles...are they all demons?"
Ariatis said: "They are not demons, on the contrary, they are the incarnations of the Holy Light. But we must respect them. They not only help us, but also give us strength, and even tell us how to become a fish.
Sally suddenly asked: "What about you?"
"Me?" Ariatis said in a low voice: "My siblings and I are just toys in their hands."
"But they didn't hurt you." Sally shook her head and said, "I remember you once told me that you are the best."
Ariatis shook his head and said: "They just need us to work hard for them. You know, our ancestors were slaves, so why should these noble nobles trust us and be sincere to them.
"you mean…………"
Ariatis said: "I want to become stronger...I want to gain strength so that I can master freedom...and the only thing I can do is to improve my strength and become their pawn. They I need to be strong and fight for them. I have to succeed."
Sally bit her lip and said after a long silence: "Brother, in fact, you did nothing wrong. I am the same. If you don't fight for it, I also have no chance. The so-called loyalty', in the hearts of us slaves, It’s never worth a few copper nuts.”
Ariadis sighed.
"No matter what it is for, you should work hard." Sally said seriously at this time: "I believe in you, Ariatis."
Ariatis took a deep breath and nodded, "I also believe in myself."
The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
When Arirang woke up again, he was in his own bed.
When he opened his eyes, he felt a slight pain in his head. This was because he had just woken up... Although he had recovered his health, there was still a trace of the influence of the virus in his body.
However, this influence is not a fatal danger for Arirang at present.
He sat up, looked at the glass of warm water on the table, and took it... Beside it, lay a note.
[Mr. Arirang, my friend, I hope you can understand my actions, but we are forced to do so. We need you, an alchemist who is proficient in alchemy. 1
This is an invitation.
Arirang narrowed his eyes, he crushed the note and walked into the trash can... He planned to continue to rest.
He lay down... But at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Arirang stood up suspiciously, and pushed open the door, only to find that there was an old servant standing outside the door... The old servant was pale and exuded a decaying smell, as if he was dying, It feels like I have to die at any moment.
who is he?
Hello...my name is Aegwynn. "The old servant coughed a few words at this time, "I heard your conversation, I know what you are worried about...but (Zhao Dezhao) Mr. Arirang, I hope you can listen to me suggestion. "
The old servant stretched out his withered arm "pointing to the note eleven on the table, his feet were already stuck in the mud.
After hesitating for a moment, Arirang brought Aegwynn back to his room, and poured hot water—the old servant picked it up tremblingly, and drank it down in one gulp.
The old servant quickly closed the lid of the teapot, then closed his eyes and fell into sleep.
Arirang walked to the window and looked down at the world. His gaze reveals endless coldness and resentment——.
