Use foreign lands to conquer the whole of Europe

Chapter 64: Chapter 64
When Hadford was silent, Angie couldn't help turning his head slightly, and looked at him quietly.

She had talked with Hadford for so long, just to "dug out" all those things about him.This guy who seems to have a bit of conscience should not be particularly resistant now.

After a short silence, Hadford took a light breath.

Just when Angie thought he was going to start talking, he only heard a very short sentence:
"sorry."

"?"

Angie stared at him dumbfounded for a while, and just about to laugh, Hadford gave him a hard look:
"Don't laugh!"

"It's not...that..."

While she was talking intermittently, she bit her lips repeatedly, tried hard to hold back her smile, then took a deep breath, and said in the calmest voice possible:

"Although you say so, I can't give you the answer you want."

After all, this Anji is not that "Angie".She was not the original owner of this body, and it was impossible for her to say "it's okay" or "I forgive you" without shame.

On the contrary, some things really cannot be forgiven.

Hadford obviously understands this truth.He began to turn his eyes elsewhere again, skipping this conversation directly and getting to the point:

"You asked me earlier, why did you help me? But I'm not helping you, I just told you something."

As he said that, he sneered, "Actually, as long as it makes Slade feel unhappy, I'm willing to try it. If you can really get out of her control one day and build your own power, I think she should be very angry?"

Angie watched Hadford finish these words, and noticed that he was secretly looking at her eyes, so he blinked and replied neatly:

"okay, I get it."

Among other things, just because this guy helps her keep the "gift", he is already helping her.

It's just that Angie doesn't want to expose this face-saving guy now, lest he have to quarrel with him again.

Seeing that she didn't say anything more, Hadford looked away, took a deep breath silently, and continued:

"As for why I betrayed Slade..."

Just now he said this, he suddenly gritted his teeth and laughed, looking into the distance with hatred in his eyes: "It's nothing, it's just that all my relatives died because of her. My father died when I was very young." I was drafted into the army when I was young, and I haven’t heard from him since. My mother raised me and my brother hard, but when I was ten years old, I was taken away because I couldn’t pay taxes..."

Having said that, Hadford couldn't help chuckling twice.It's just that the laughter seemed to be forced out of his throat, and his expression became extraordinarily ferocious.

After a while, Hadford calmed down a little, looked at Angie who had been silent for a long time, and said softly: "Mother took the initiative to go with those tax soldiers in order to let my brother and I stay. But With her leaving like this, I alone cannot support this family consisting of only two children. My younger brother who is only seven years old did not survive that winter, but I was lucky enough to survive .During the countless nights when I was almost frozen to death and starved to death, I only had one thought in my heart——I want to survive. Only by surviving can I find the person who ruined my family and let her experience what I have experienced. these pains."

"Do you know?" He was obviously smiling, but he choked up a little, "I can still remember that night, I hugged my brother Redlin and curled up in the corner together. It's really cold in winter, but we The clothes on my body are already tattered, so how can I resist the harsh winter in Gloskland? The branches we picked up together during the day were snatched away by others, and we couldn't even light a fire.

"I could feel him getting cold in my arms, but there was nothing I could do - because I was almost as cold as him. I couldn't warm him up with my own body heat, I just kept talking to him, talking , until he didn't reply for a long, long time, didn't move for a long, long time..."

As Hadford spoke, his voice became softer and softer, and his eyes began to shimmer.But he still forcibly restrained his emotions, with a sullen face, trying to preserve his little face as much as possible.

Anji saw all of this in his eyes, so he could only bow his head silently and turn his eyes to the ground, so that he could have enough time to digest his emotions.

Compared with Hadford, she and Slade actually don't have any deep hatred, and can even understand part of her thoughts.

To manage such a large territory, funds are definitely needed.And the source of this fund is nothing more than plunder.

The objects of plunder can be both outsiders and insiders.Only by making this huge management structure work can Gloskland develop better.

But this does not mean that Angie will agree with these behaviors of the other party.She always felt that there should be a better way to solve these problems.Such human tragedies should not happen so frequently.

After a long time, Angie heard Hadford's voice again:

"I just didn't expect that you would be from Glan Village. I know those villagers are innocent, and they even took me in who escaped from Kent, just because they heard that I was the one who dared to resist Slade But the burning feeling of the soul was so painful that during that time, I was in a daze, with only the concept of 'pain' in my head every day. However, in that kind of life that is worse than death About five or six days later, I suddenly heard a strange whisper."

Having said this, Hadford stopped suddenly.

Angie, who had been silent all this time, glanced at Hadford cautiously, making sure that the other party's mood is still stable, before continuing to ask: "What kind of whisper?"

"How should I put it..." He seemed very hesitant, "It floated to my ears like the wind, it was obviously very light, but it was very clear... It was as if it was passed directly into my mind..."

As Hadford said, he let out another breath, and then made up his mind, looked at Angie, and continued: "Those words are like this:
"It's painful, isn't it? As long as you get out of the barrier, everything will be fine. Come on, come to the barrier, as long as you leave Glosk, you can get rid of Slade's shackles."

"Sounds like a godsend, doesn't it?" He laughed self-deprecatingly, "Those words have been echoing in my mind. At first, I was able to maintain my consciousness and cursed in my heart that the man who treated me like a missionary Silly X talking frantically... But then, my consciousness slowly began to blur... When I woke up again, I was already in the forest outside Gelan Village..."

Hadford spoke with difficulty, while secretly looking at Angie, and found that she was just holding her chin lightly with the back of her hand, her eyes were slightly lowered, looking thoughtful, and then she added in a low voice: "To be honest, in Before that, I had already tried to get out of the barrier directly. But the almost completely transparent energy wall, as if knowing that I was a betrayer, refused to let me go out... And, since I woke up in the forest, No matter which way you go, you can't see the barrier anymore..."

"So," Anji said softly, "You think you broke the barrier?"

"Is there any other explanation?" Hadford smiled bitterly, "In Gloskland, who else would destroy Slade's barrier, and actually destroy it, and survived?" I’m not bragging, but I’ve never heard of a person of this level—after all, I used to be that old woman’s personal guard. Glosk is responsible for everything big and small, and I basically You all know. I didn’t use my ability to destroy the barrier before because I didn’t want to implicate the villagers of Gelan Village, but in the end, it ended up like this..."

Seeing him showing guilt again, Anji shook his head lightly, and said with a wry smile: "Although I can't forgive you, you didn't evade your responsibility, but faced this matter bravely, and put this matter on your shoulders again." The matter was told to me exactly. At this point, I still want to say thank you to you."

As she spoke, she raised her head and stared at Hadford in a daze, and then continued: "...But I always feel that things in Gelan Village are not that simple. Hadford, the whispers you heard ', could it be a mental attack?"

In Angie's soft voice, Hadford came back to his senses, but his eyes still drifted uncontrollably, and said with some embarrassment: "I have thought about what you said... but I have never heard of Ge There is such a guy in Rosk Territory who can directly "use mental attacks to control others". Based on the information I have at this stage, I can only think that it is I who destroyed the barrier near Gran Village. But the strange thing is , since I left the barrier, the burning pain in my soul has really eased a lot. It seems that that nagging voice is not just talking nonsense."

Anji smiled wryly, with mixed feelings in her heart.Who knew that this guy who called her a "little bitch" half a day ago would show such a tweaked look here and now, and open his heart to her, telling his true thoughts?
After thinking about it, Angie asked Hadford another point that puzzled her:

"That is to say, you have been preparing for five years to prepare for revenge against Slade, right? I heard from Barton that you came to the castle when you were 15 years old."

"That's right," he snorted with a sneer, "That fellow Barton, I originally wanted to kill him directly, but it's a pity that Slade came too soon."

Angie was not puzzled by this.Hadford wanted to kill Barton, of course because the latter was deeply favored by Slade.

"It is said that you also took away many treasures?"

After she asked this question, Hadford's face darkened immediately: "No, it should be said this way: I only had time to take away those treasures that are both valuable and convenient to carry. To be honest, I wanted to go back Kill some people, but after I secretly destroyed the treasure house, the old woman noticed something strange almost instantly, and even rushed over without even shouting to the guards, which really left me no time to go do something else..."

Then, Hadford said mockingly: "It's ridiculous to say it. Before that, I pretended to be obedient and sensible in front of Slade, but I was a little bit angry with her subordinates. That's all. It's the limit of what I can do. I can't give these people who are helping the abusers a good look. But even if I carry this disgusting feeling and pretend for ten years, I still haven't been able to gain her trust. Sly De seldom mentioned to me about barriers and gifts, and forbade me to inquire about her. Compared with the other guards who have fought with her for many years, I am the least reused, as if only Treat me like a fighting tool."

Hearing this, Angie couldn't help sighing softly.She could also feel that Slade was very suspicious, but she didn't expect that Hadford had been lurking for ten years and still hadn't won the trust of that person.Ask yourself, even though she is mature and cautious compared with her peers, she is far inferior to an old fritter of Slade's level...

After all, they are not at the same level in terms of age.

At this moment, Angie suddenly realized another thing - Hadford's temper is so grumpy now, not only because of the burning pain in his soul that he has been enduring, but also because the undercover life of those ten years was too depressing, Made him bounce back...

The uncontrollable smile on Angie's face quickly alerted Hadford:
"why are you laughing?"

"It's nothing."

Under Hadford's hostile gaze, she tried hard to control her facial expression before continuing: "I was just thinking, you have worked hard..."

Hearing this, Hadford snorted disdainfully:
"It's not just as simple as hard work, it really disgusts me - do you know the feeling of having to pretend to be cute and cute in front of your enemies every day? Every time I finish pretending, I have to find a quiet place Spit in the corner for a while."

Although he looked like he was cursing, his mood seemed to improve a lot.

This made Anji feel at ease, smiled slightly, and then asked seriously: "Then what I have to do now is to go to various foreign lands to experience, wait for the patience value to reach 100, and then consider other things?"

"To be honest, even if your patience is 100, you can barely survive the burning of that old woman's soul. Even when I was able to escape from the castle, it was thanks to the time I robbed the treasure in the treasury. Some gadgets came out."

Hadford said so, and sneered at her: "Once you feel that you are not good enough and don't want to do it, you can tell me at any time. Anyway, even if you are missing you, a rookie, it won't affect anything."

"How can I talk to you at any time? There is no contact information these days..."

Angie complained helplessly, but couldn't help laughing.

Obviously this guy was still yelling before, "Even if you don't want to do this, I will force you to do it", but now he told her that she could quit at any time.

The speed of Tsundere turning over is really faster than flipping a book.

Thinking of this, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, trying to make herself as friendly as possible, and then said:

"I appreciate your kindness, but I also have my persistence...By the way, can you tell me what the person who looks like me looks like?"

Hadford's face froze, and his tone was a little unhappy: "What else could it look like? It's almost exactly the same as your black-haired look... except that the man has white hair and blue eyes, and his nose and forehead are slightly smaller than yours. It's just a little bit taller..."

Angie smiled awkwardly, but she had something mmp to say in her heart.

That doesn't sound like her at all!I don't know how this straight man dared to call him a "little bitch".

Seeing Anji's hesitant appearance, Hadford gritted his teeth, and then added hesitatingly: "It's just... her expression is very indifferent, and she has a sense of majesty that can only be possessed by ordinary people... That's why I belatedly realized that it might not be you..."

"Apathy..."

Angie murmured unconsciously, and couldn't help feeling a little confused.Could this be the person who is extremely gentle to her and doesn't ask for anything in return?
"Hey, don't worry about it so much, can you just admit the wrong person?" Hadford finally couldn't take it anymore, "Why have I talked to you little bitch for so long? Well, I'm leaving. "

"Aren't you curious where I got the gift? You're also not interested in why I have two images?" Angie asked with a smile.

"Not interested. Anyway, no matter how your appearance changes, you are still you, right? If Slade asks about the gift, just say that I snatched it away."

Hadford stood up while talking, ready to leave here.

But the second half of his sentence made Anji startled, and he immediately reacted:

"But...you will be sensed by the lord of Comora when you go back with the gift?"

"Hmph, don't worry about it. I have my own way."

He walked out without looking back, and before he walked out of the door, he stopped suddenly, turned his head to look at Anji, and added viciously:
"Don't tell anyone about me!"

"Okay~"

She smiled and agreed, and watched his back disappear into the thick fog. After a long time, she turned her gaze to Elijah and said:
"You can't tell anyone~"

Elijah blinked, then narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a trace of teasing in his tone: "As expected of you, my beloved master, you can turn an enemy into a friend so quickly. Did I sleep for a long time?"

"Yes. But, you just slept for half a day."

Angie looked at Elijah happily, let it grow vines, coiled around his waist, and then walked out of the house.

In the unusually quiet and foggy village, the voice of one person and one sword came:

"Master, you seem to be becoming more like you."

"What do you mean? I also feel that your words seem to have become less, and the logic seems to have become a little clearer... Could this be my illusion?"

"What I mean is that your special kind of intimacy has become more intense. But no matter what, I will be your most loyal, reliable and excellent servant..."

"Okay, okay, shut up... Oh, forget it, I'll let you talk enough this time... Hey, that's wrong! How the hell am I going to go back!"

　Good news: The collection will finally break 300~
　　I changed the titles of the previous chapter and this chapter~ This is more relevant!

　　Hehe
　　This is also because there are not enough manuscripts, so the title needs to be changed! (Sorrowful) At that time, I thought this chapter would be the second half of the previous chapter, but I didn't expect that it was already off the track...

　　Talked too much with the seniors! !

　　So this chapter directly becomes a [-]-word chapter! ! /vomit blood
　　But the holes dug back then have to be filled...

　　It's really too difficult to save some manuscripts, and this week is still a single holiday, it's numb.

　　Previously, I posted in the circle of book friends that "unscheduled updates may last for a while", but it returned to normal the next day hhh, it's hard to stretch
