Chapter 9 The Future
Chapter 9 Future ()
"I..." Vasily was silent for a moment: "I have enjoyed it, but now, I am just an escapee."
“That is, you lost to someone else, so you were discouraged?”
"Child, you are still young, and I don't know how many impatient forces exist in the world." Vasily sighed lightly: "And, it's not me who was discouraged, but my gray hair on my head and these hands with old-spots."
"Age doesn't mean everything," Dio said.
"At least, my power has begun to fade away." Vasily laughed: "For example, Emperor Tu Ming, the army of the Moon Shadow Empire, has ruled the Moon Shadow Empire for more than 800 years, but he is still very young on the outside. This proves that his power is always in the rising period, and I am just an eliminated person."
After saying that, Vasili noticed Dio's expression was a little weird, and turned his head and asked, "Have you heard of Emperor Tuming, too?"
"How could I never heard of it?" Dio replied slowly.
"Okay, Master Dio, I'm so frank, should you also repay me?" Vasily said, "Don't worry, I won't ask questions you don't want to answer again. Well... Actually, what I'm most curious is why don't you want to become a talented warrior? I've been observing you these two days. Like me, you are awakened by the wind-based source power, and you have surpassed the talented warrior in controlling the source power, and the storage of the source power has reached an amazing level, so I really don't understand why this is?"
"You were definitely not here last night," Dio replied.
"How do you know?" Vasily was stunned.
"If you were here last night, you would never have touched that glass of milk." A smile flashed in Dio's eyes.
Vasily looked at the milk, then looked at Dio, and then suddenly realized: "Master Dio, I found... you are good at diverting others' attention. Don't talk about damn milk anymore. Tell me, why don't you want to be a real warrior?"
Dio was silent for a long time: "I won't."
"What?" Maybe it was because he didn't hear it clearly, maybe he heard it clearly but was uncertain, Vasily asked.
"I don't know, no one has ever taught me."
"Haha..." Vasily laughed out loud as if he had heard the funnyest joke. He laughed for a while, looked at Dio, and started laughing again.
"I really won't."
"I accept your explanation." Vasili nodded: "Well, now it's time to prepare lunch for our Master Dio. What do you want to eat?"
Dio showed a stunned look for the first time. What does it mean? Is the other party really going to be a chef in the manor?
"I haven't talked so much with people for a long time. I think we will have a lot of topics in the future." Vasili stood up, looked at Dio's face, and laughed: "Don't worry, I will leave myself soon. After all, I am a runaway person and I can't implicate you."
When Roy walked into Dio's room and saw the table full of various dishes, he shouted to Vasily in surprise and joy: "Vasily, are you all these made? Haha, you are so awesome!"
"Do you think it's possible? There is not even a kitchen in the yard. What did you ask me to do?" Vasily said as she sat openly on the chair.
Roy was stunned and hurriedly winked at Vasily. It's so rude. Did the young master ask you to sit down?!
Vasily pretended not to see Roy's hint, and the knife and fork in his hand hit gently rhythmically. His eyes swept around the table, as if looking for a target to start.
Roy coughed dryly, and just as he was about to speak, Dio had already spoken first: "Roy, you can sit down too."
"Me?" Roy was a little uneasy, hesitated for a moment, but walked to the table and sat down carefully: "Vasily, aren't these you did? That's..."
"I just went to Duta Town," Vasily said. "These were bought there."
"Don't joke around in front of the young master." Roy said: "Duita Town is almost a hundred miles away. You... Oh my God! Didn't you steal it from the warehouse, are you crazy? You're you?"
Dio looked up and glanced at Roy, while Vasily was too lazy to pay attention to Roy and had already started eating.
Roy felt Dio's eyes look strange and stopped talking, but he kept comforting himself in his heart. Forget it, just steal it. Anyway... the young master doesn't seem to want to continue disguising himself, sooner or later.
Although the dishes on the table were very rich, Roy had no appetite at all, and the pressure in his heart was too great that made him restless. After only more than ten minutes, he hurriedly left.
"Do you have any ideas about your future?" Vasily spoke suddenly.
"Future? Imagination?"
"Yes." Vasily raised his knife and pointed to the door: "Would you like him to live so cautiously every day?"
"Can't blame Roy, he just wants to protect himself and his family." Dio said slowly: "Who wants to live every day with fear? This world is too cruel."
"Cruel? Do you really understand the meaning of this word?"
"Well." Dio paused: "Last night, I killed two talented warriors. Although they had a reason to die... they were two living lives after all, and Tombur the day before yesterday. I have been waiting for others to question me, but now nothing has happened, and it seems that they have been forgotten."
"Last night?" Vasily smiled: "It seems that I missed a lot of wonderful things last night."
"Where did you go yesterday?" Dio asked.
"I heard yesterday that there was a small group of thieves deep in the wilderness, so I went to find them."
"Eliminate violence and keep good?" Dio's eyes were filled with smiles.
"You can understand this, I don't object." Vasily also smiled: "In fact, my money is about to be spent, so I have to find a way to make some money. And I want to give it a try."
“What to try?”
"Can you hit their nose bones into their heads?" Vasili said: "But I can't do it."
"It's just a very simple trick. You can do it by trying it a few more times." Dio smiled.
"Forget it, I don't have that energy." Vasily said: "Let's talk about your future."
"Future." Dio's smile gradually faded. After a long time, he whispered: "I'm going to go out by myself after a while, increase my experience, and learn more."
"It's not me that I'll hit your confidence." Vasily slowly placed the tableware on the table: "Now, you'll face survival anxiety that you'll face is not much better than Roy."
"I have the ability to deal with it."
"Why are you?" Vasily smiled and said, "By the gloom and forbearance you showed me? Do you really think that an awakened person can overcome the difficulties that come one after another?"
“I can’t have been an awakened person all the time.”
"That's right." Vasily stood up: "When you truly become a talented warrior, you will understand the difference between a talented warrior and an awakened man, and then you will also understand the gap between a radiant warrior and a talented warrior! Miss Sophia is only the fifth heir in the baron leader, and is also an excluded heir. Don't use the strength of Sophia's guards to measure the strong people in this world. Besides, her father is just a baron, with an earl, a duke, and a duke on it. There are too many people you need to look up to. Let's go, let's go to the wilderness."
"Go to the wilderness?"
"Only in that place without any cover, you can feel the power of the wind, the real power."
"You..." Dio was stunned for a long time before whispering: "Do you want to teach me to be a talented warrior?" Although this wish has been pressed in his heart for a long time, he has always tried hard to control his emotional turmoil.
"You guessed it." Vasily nodded.
"Why?"
"Why? Haha... it's interesting." Vasily's eyes showed a slanderous look: "Master Dio, do you think that the bond between people must be maintained by interests and benefits? I am willing to help you today, just to exchange for something from you in the future?"
"I..." Dio couldn't help but smile bitterly. Is it necessary to say so bluntly?
"You seem to be full of vigilance about everything. If you don't give you a good reason, it's hard for you to believe who, right?" Vasily paused: "Say that, I don't have much time left, so I want to do as much as possible to make others miss me, or to make others hate me, at least, these are traces of my existence."
Dio's heart trembled for a moment, and he heard a sense of how good people say when they are about to die, and how sad the birds say when they are about to die.
"Let's go." Vasily walked slowly out.
Roy only took a few minutes to find a carriage for Dio. It seems that the deaths of the two talented warriors and the disappearance of Tomble did not have any impact. The manor was still calm. Brigitte's attitude was interesting. As the manor's housekeeper, if she really wanted to take the opportunity to make a big fuss, Dio would never be so relaxed. Although it is unlikely that Dio will be killed, after all, there is a real lady on it, but trouble is always indispensable.
Going out of the manor all the way east, there is an endless wasteland. The place close to the manor is only about a thousand acres of wheat fields, and the reclaim rate of the wasteland is less than one percent. This indirectly reflects what kind of experience and status Miss Sophia's father has.
