Chapter 206: A Kindness That Cannot Be Repaid

(The previous chapter has been approved, no deletions or revisions, those who haven't read it can go back and take a look.)

Under the moonlight, the stained girl hugged her knees and sobbed softly.

The white and tender little feet were gathered together under the robe, curled up gently as the body trembled.

She cried so sadly, as if she wanted to express all the emotions that had been buried deep in her heart in recent days.

“.”

Why do I suddenly feel a little sad?

In the darkness, Lynn subconsciously reached out to her.

However, the next second, the girl who had been crying just now suddenly raised her head with a cold expression, and her eyes seemed to contain unprecedented anger.

"I knew it. I knew you were lying to me!!!"

"Hypnosis? It's all fake!!!"

In an instant, Lin En felt that his whole body was restrained by some invisible force, and then he saw the other party slowly get up, stepping on the bed sheets with bare feet, and walking towards him step by step.

"Kill you"

The girl's cold hands gripped his throat tightly like iron pliers, and she was determined to kill him!

The intense suffocation and pain swept through his body, making Lin En subconsciously want to struggle.

However, it was ultimately futile.

When their eyes met, Lin En suddenly realized that the pair of emerald green eyes had lost their former gentleness and were filled with superior indifference.

All the humanity that was originally hidden in Tia disappeared at this moment.

In its place, there is something called "divinity".

Beatrice? When this name came into his mind, Lin En suddenly opened his eyes, sat up subconsciously, and gasped for air.

However, for seriously injured patients, this action undoubtedly made matters worse. The lacerations in various parts of the body became aggravated a little, and then severe pain swept over them.

With the pain, his brain gradually became clear.

Looking at the bright sunlight outside the window, Lin En realized that the scenes that just appeared before his eyes were just a dream.

At this moment, it was already early morning of the next day.

“.”

Feeling his back already soaked with cold sweat, Lin En slowly raised his hands and rubbed his numb face vigorously.

I didn't expect to have such a strange dream.

Or maybe this wasn't just a nonsensical dream, but a sign of fate? Lin En had no idea. He felt confused and could only take a deep breath to calm himself down.

Then he raised his head and looked at the bed next to him.

Tia seemed to have gotten up and went somewhere. He was the only one in the room.

Maybe he was dealing with something? Lin En didn't know.

But let's take a step back.

Even if she just left like that, it was expected.

After all, what happened last night was really beyond the boundaries of their relationship. Even with hypnosis as an excuse, it would probably be difficult for her to accept it for a while.

As for Lin En, although he felt very happy, when he saw the girl covering her face and crying, he inevitably felt some fluctuations in his heart.

Guilt? Maybe. Or maybe it's something called responsibility.

Thinking of this, Lynn sighed softly.

Now that Tia is missing, it’s time to consider the worst possible outcome.

Thinking of this, he supported his body and slowly climbed up from the bed, while his peripheral vision inadvertently glanced at the floor-length mirror next to him.

Looking at the pale boy in the mirror, Lin En was suddenly stunned.

What's this expression on my face? Lost?

He shook his head, trying to dispel the empty feeling in his heart.

Although it has only been a few days, Lin En has already gotten used to the faint body fragrance lingering in his nose every day when he wakes up, and the elf girl sitting by the dressing mirror and fixing her appearance.

When did I become so weak?

Thinking of this, Lin En smiled self-deprecatingly, then slowly stood up and walked towards the door while holding onto the wall.

If Tia really left, then he, an old, weak and sick man, would have no reason to continue struggling. It would be better for him to contact Her Royal Highness the Princess in advance and put himself in a safe situation.

As for the Moonlight Scripture that will follow, we can only take it one step at a time.

The moment he gripped the brass handle, Lin En, who was immersed in thought, suddenly felt the handle in his palm begin to rotate in the opposite direction.

Then there was a creaky sound and the door opened.

The familiar refreshing fragrance lingers around my nose again.

Lynn looked down and saw the elf girl in disguise holding a hot paper bag and looking into his eyes.

"Why are you up?" Seeing Lin En appear so suddenly in front of her, Tia was startled, and a trace of unnaturalness flashed in her eyes, "Hurry up and lie down in bed."

She gently pushed Lin En in, then looked outside the door for a while before locking it from the inside.

After doing all this, Tia came to the dining table and placed the paper bag on it.

It turned out that he went to buy breakfast.

Watching the girl busy at the dining table, for some reason, Lin En suddenly felt relieved.

"Your expression is disgusting. Are you thinking of something rude?"

With her back to him, Tia took out the food one by one and pointed out Lin En's abnormality in a calm voice.

"No, nothing."

He pursed his lips.

Five minutes later, the two sat at the dining table and began to enjoy their not-so-rich breakfast.

At this moment, Tia looked very calm, as if she had completely forgotten everything that happened last night.

After all, from her perspective, only she knew what exactly happened.

However, traces of crying can still be seen from the slightly red corners of the eyes.

What a tough guy.

While Lin En was chewing soft white bread, he heard Tia whisper, "I've heard from Louise a long time ago that there's a bakery in the northern part of downtown that tastes good. I've been there several times before, but they were always sold out. It's a coincidence that I came here today."

“It’s delicious.”

Lynn complimented.

Unexpectedly, Tia shook her head and said, "In terms of taste and flavor, it is far inferior to the church's craftsmanship. It's just that I heard others say it too many times before, which gave me unnecessary yearning in my heart. So when I tasted it, I felt a little disillusioned."

These words sounded like a complaint, but also seemed to contain some deep meaning.

Lynn was choked and had to work hard.

Seeing this, Tia pursed her lips, then poured a cup of hot water from the teapot and slowly pushed it in front of Lin En.

At the same time, he spoke as if unintentionally.

"I'm going to the Black Street Market this afternoon to meet the organizer there, Frank the Hound."

Lynn paused.

“Maybe he can help you get out of the city successfully.” Tia didn’t look at Lin En’s expression at the moment, and gently tore the soft bread in her hand. “I will give you some money and arrange someone to pick you up in Courtney City.”

"The Imperial Capital is no longer suitable for you to stay. In addition to the old guys in the parliament, there are many nobles who want to kill you all the time."

"After this, whether to stay in the Saint Laurent Empire or go to other countries, wait until you recover from your injuries and then consider it carefully."

As she spoke, Tia put the bread into her mouth and chewed it gently.

It seemed like he was talking about a trivial matter from beginning to end.

However, these words sounded particularly harsh to Lynn.

After a long silence, he whispered, "What about you?"

"Don't worry, the church won't punish me for such a small matter."

"I mean the Moonlight Scripture."

Hearing this, Tia's hands froze in place.

"Never mind."

After a while, a somewhat cold reply came from the girl across the table.

After asking that question, the girl didn't seem to be in a good mood, so the two of them didn't say a word during the whole breakfast.

Not only that, after the meal, Tia changed her clothes, appearance and posture without saying a word, and left the room, leaving Lin En alone.

"If I don't come back until late at night, you can just run for your life."

These were the last words the girl left before she left.

Silence returned to the room.

If it weren't for the slightly full stomach feeling of satisfaction after eating, Lin En would even think that the girl had never come back.

He lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.

The nightmare from last night kept replaying before my eyes.

Beatrice.

Tia.

These two names lingered in my mind like a nightmare.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

After a long time, Lin En suddenly came to his senses, sat up with some effort, and pulled the silk thread beside the bed.

This is the bell used to call the waiter.

The hotel where the two are staying at the moment is of a fairly high standard, so this level of service is available.

But according to Tia's previous reminder, as a fugitive, Lin En should not have behaved so ostentatiously, as there was a high probability that he would expose himself to the outside world.

However, he didn't know what he was thinking, but he still did it.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door, and a clear female voice came from the other side: "Hello?"

"Come in."

An ordinary-looking maid pushed open the door and walked in, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

When he saw the young man lying on the bed, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

Obviously, she had not expected that the guest staying in the luxurious guest room which cost one gold coin a night would be such a young person.

And so handsome.

But then, when the maid saw the bandages wrapped under his clothes and the faint traces of blood, she was stunned.

Recalling the wanted posters that had been circulating in the streets of Glostin in recent days, she looked at Lynn covertly a few times, not knowing what she thought of, and her expression suddenly became a little ugly.

However, Lynn didn't care about it at all.

"Two things." As he spoke, the young man handed her the handwritten letter he had prepared long ago. "First, deliver this letter to the address above. You must complete it before the end of this afternoon."

"Complete this task and I will reward you with one thousand gold coins."

1. One thousand gold coins? !

Upon hearing this astronomical figure, the maid's eyes showed a trace of astonishment, as if she had heard some Arabian Nights fairy tale.

"Guest, guest, are you kidding me?"

"Whether I'm joking or not, you can decide for yourself." Lin En said calmly, "Also, you should have recognized my identity, right?"

Hearing this, the maid's face suddenly turned pale: "Guest, guest, I don't know what you are talking about."

"Secondly, you can choose to report the case to the official supernatural authority, but please postpone the time a little bit."

"Complete this task and I will give you an additional 100 gold coins as a reward."

"Can you do that?"

As he spoke, Lin En took out a bag of heavy gold coins from the cabinet beside him and threw it to the other party as a deposit.

The maid's eyes changed instantly when she suddenly saw the huge wealth that was enough to change her life.

It was a gaze that transcended conscience and humanity and was filled with fanaticism.

Her hands were clenched tightly together, as if she wanted to pick up the bag of gold coins, but also seemed to be making a choice.

Finally, the maid said in a trembling voice: "I swear, my dear, I will not betray you, and I will definitely complete the task you assigned me."

Perhaps it was money that was the driving force, or perhaps he simply wanted to help this seemingly harmless boy in front of him.

At this moment, she looked extremely sincere.

However, after a brief eye contact, Lynn sighed imperceptibly.

Could it be that I have been with Tia for too long, and that I have been influenced by her subtly, and have started to have unnecessary fantasies about creatures like "human beings"?

He thought silently in his heart, seeming a little confused.

After a moment, the boy raised his head again and looked at the other person expressionlessly: "You wasted the only chance I gave you."

The next second, an invisible wave of power came.

Before she could react, the maid's expression froze on her face.

She thought her acting skills could fool the boy in front of her, but she didn't know that he had the ability to detect any lie.

"After delivering this letter as requested, return to your room and wait until approximately ten o'clock at night, then immediately proceed to the nearest silent church and disclose my whereabouts to them."

For ordinary people, he can manipulate them easily without even using lies.

"yes."

The maid came to her senses, and the false sincerity in her eyes disappeared, replaced by unprecedented determination.

After a moment, the door was closed again.

Lynn's body fell backwards and lay on the soft bed.

It's none of your business.

At this moment, the girl's cold words at breakfast echoed in my ears again.

Very decisive, as if to draw a clear line.

It seems that Tia is not completely ignorant of the upcoming Moonlight Scripture.

That's why I'm so anxious to cut ties with him.

However, as mentioned before, Lynn has the ability to see through other people's lies.

"Sure enough. When a woman says no, she actually wants it."

The boy stared at the chandelier on the ceiling and talked to himself.

Of course he didn't want to care.

But it was just like the time when we went to rescue Yvesette.

He knew very well that if he really did nothing, when things were over and the dust settled, or when he tossed and turned in bed at night, he would be overwhelmed by unprecedented regret.

It's clear that the two have just met each other not long ago.

Obviously, I should have transformed Miss Witch into a puppet as requested.

However, things change.

It was not until things progressed to this point that I realized that everything was completely beyond my expectations.

Even he himself didn't know why he would risk his life to such an extent for another person's girl.

If I have to give a reason, it might be last night.

She cried very sadly.

I can never repay your kindness.

That's all.

For the next period of time, Lynn lay motionless on the bed as if she had fallen asleep.

The sun outside the window gradually sets as time goes by.

Before I knew it, it was evening.

At a certain moment, Lynn suddenly opened his eyes.

"Boom boom boom."

There was a heavy knock on the door outside.

The climax is coming soon, please support me with your monthly tickets!!!
