Sickly lady in wheelchair, but God

"I will never let you stop the development of Black Storm City!"

When the first person who was imprisoned for dissuading Zhila appeared, the prosperity of Black Storm City was tinged with a different haze than before.

Alsophila, who was watching all this happening, felt her heart churning and she realized that she no longer recognized Sera.

She had no idea why Sera, who was obsessed with Black Storm City, had become like this.

Is it the influence of the ominous sword left by my father?

She didn't want to see Sera continue to sink, so she decided to do something, even if it was to take back the ominous sword left by her father.

53 Alsophila spinulosa and the farewell of God

Past experiences made Alsophila believe that, although Sera was going a little too far now, she was different from Marcus and the like. She was not the kind of evil person who only thought about herself, otherwise she would not live a poor life. She was the lord of a city, but there were not a few magic stone fragments on her body.

So, as long as we work hard enough, we can definitely get Sera back on the right track, right?

With this thought in mind, Alsophila went to meet Sera. This was the first time in several months that she took the initiative to find Sera.

When they first met, Sera was so surprised that she stopped what she was doing.

But the subsequent developments were completely beyond Alsophila's expectations. The process and results of this meeting were more than just terrible. It was no exaggeration to say that they were on the verge of an explosion.

"You're going to stop me too?"

"I understand, you must have been bewitched by someone!"

"I've told you long ago that there is a group of lackeys following Marcus and his men that have not been cleared out. They are hiding among ordinary people, always planning how to overthrow me and return Black Storm City to the era ruled by Marcus and his men."

"Their previous plan was to kill me directly, but when they realized they couldn't defeat me, they changed their strategy and tried to spread rumors to incite civilians to fight against me together."

"Civilians spend most of their energy on making their lives better, so it's understandable that they would be instigated. I never thought that you, who have been with me, would be deceived by those people. I... I..."

Sera pointed at the Alsophila spinulosa, and by the end she could no longer speak complete sentences.

Because of anger, her body kept shaking, and even her face turned a glaring blood red.

Alsophila wanted to explain, but she couldn't speak, she could only wave her hands helplessly.

But this action did not calm Sera down. Instead, it was seen by Sera as a silent resistance.

"I don't have anything to say to you right now. Go back and think about it carefully. Come back to see me when you have thought it through."

“A person can be naive, but he cannot be naive all the time, otherwise he will be deceived by others.”

Facing Sera's accusations, Alsophila raised his hands several times, but finally turned around and left silently.

She didn't blame Sierra.

She could understand Sierra, she just wished Sierra could understand her and others, too.

Alsophila recalled the scene when she and Sera first met.

At that time, she rushed forward with a look of concern, trying to help Sera, who was dizzy after being beaten by the lizardman, up, but Sera treated her as someone who came to provoke and mock her, and punched her in the eye without saying a word.

The root cause of the misunderstanding was that Sera was very sensitive at that time and she couldn't speak.

Fortunately, this misunderstanding did not last long. The misunderstanding between them was resolved when they met for the second time. Not only that, they also became partners with a common goal.

They worked together and successfully eradicated those people in Marcus who were no longer considered human, ushering in a new era for Black Storm City.

[The misunderstanding between us was resolved last time, and it will definitely be resolved this time, but...]

Alsophila realized that she had to make it clear to Sera what she wanted to say in order to achieve this goal.

She turned over the slate with her name on it from the corner of the room.

Text.

Nowadays, apart from speaking, the only way to accurately express what she is thinking is through words.

The only problem is that the writing currently used in human society was created based on the writing of the orcs.

[Orcs. ]

Alsophila spinulosa gradually clenched his fists.

She never thought that one day she would take the initiative to touch orcs' things, but she had to, she didn't want to see Sera go on like this!

At the same time, she felt very ashamed.

At the beginning, the girl with inconvenient legs and feet offered to teach her how to write, but she snorted and turned her head away to refuse. Now, she has to take the initiative to go back and ask the girl to teach her.

What if I get rejected?

It would be extremely embarrassing.

But before that, she had another problem to solve. How could she make the girl understand that she wanted to learn how to read and write?

Alsophila spinulosa fell asleep with full of melancholy.

The next day, she got up early and went fishing with a harpoon.

She spent the whole morning picking and choosing before she finally picked out a few fish that she thought were plump and delicious. By the time she carefully grilled the fish, it was already afternoon.

She didn't dare to delay and hurried to the beach. To her relief, the girl with the disability was sitting in the same place as before.

Alsophila did not rush over; she watched from a distance under the tree.

It’s quite magical when you think about it. It’s been almost four years since I first met the girl.

At first she approached the girl with the intention of helping her, but who would have thought that in the end she would be the one being helped.

No matter what she encountered, no matter how bad her mood was, as long as she came to the side of this girl, her heart would immediately calm down. Occasionally, the girl would lend her her thighs to lean on. She was extremely kind.

Is this the person that dad and the others always talk about as a suitable wife?

Naturally, Alsophila had no intention of marrying the girl; she just felt very ashamed.

According to her actual age, she is almost ninety years old this year. Although she has been "living in a dream" most of the time, even if we put aside the fifty years of sleep, she is much older than this girl. But compared with this girl, she is really too immature.

If they stand together, people would think they are sisters if you only look at their appearance, but if you look at their personalities, people would probably think they are mother and daughter.

Well, daughter refers to the older her.

"Don't you want to come over?"

Suddenly, the girl's voice came.

After a moment of hesitation, Alsophila walked over. She didn't know how to start the conversation, so she simply handed over the freshly grilled fish.

"Do you need my help with something today?" The girl took the grilled fish naturally and asked.

Alsophila shook his head, and finally nodded awkwardly, like a child who had done something wrong, and did not even dare to look up at the girl's eyes.

“Some things cannot be undone no matter how hard you try.” The girl shook her head and took a bite of the fish.

I have to say that the fish carefully grilled by Alsophila tastes much better than the previous ones.

Alsophila's eyes darkened. Was he being rejected right at the start?

Just when she was sad, the girl's voice rang out again.

"But since you want to try, then give it a try. After all, I've eaten so many of your fish. Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"

Alsophila's eyes suddenly lit up. She couldn't wait to take out the stone tablet with his name on it from her arms, and then gestured in front of the girl with her fingers.

"You mean you want me to teach you how to write?"

【Uh-huh! 】

"it is good."

The girl agreed very readily.

Alsophila was almost moved to tears. She had thought long ago that the girl might not refuse her because she was a good person. However, she never expected that the girl would not only understand her meaning at once, but also agree so quickly.

【Thank you, thank you. 】

The tree also crawled on the ground, with its forehead pressed deep into the ground, expressing its gratitude excitedly.

This was the first time she had performed such a gift for Sera, whom she considered her best friend.

From that day on, Alsophila spinulosa began to study calligraphy with great effort.

Her memory is much better than that of ordinary people, as can be seen from the fact that she can easily remember the various characteristics of those herbs.

As she learned more and more common words, and as she was able to use these common words to form sentences that others could understand, her mood improved day by day.

Sera was literate, and the closed door of communication between them was finally reopened.

But is this really the case?

Tong Yao watched from afar as Alsophila spinulosa carved patterns on the ground with pebbles.

The distance between people is getting bigger and bigger in the face of mutual misunderstanding. When the distance reaches a certain level, no matter how hard you try, you cannot return to the past.

Alsophila thought it understood Serra, but it didn't.

Sera thought she understood Alsophila spinulosa, but she didn't.

And this mutual misunderstanding is actually based on the mutual misunderstanding between Sera and the civilians of Black Storm City.

Even from God's perspective, Tong Yao could not deny Sera's love for Black Storm City.

Because of this love, Sera devoted herself entirely to Black Storm City, but this love was paranoid from the beginning, and became more and more paranoid as time went on.

Sera is like a head patriarch. She is paranoid and believes that what she and only she does is truly good for Black Storm City, while others are either like Marcus who want to suck the blood of Black Storm City, or they are ordinary people who are easily fooled.

Such cognition is obviously distorted and will bring about all kinds of bad consequences, but she can no longer see them.

Because she has already categorized people based on her own prejudice. Anyone who opposes her is someone who cannot bear to see Black Storm City doing well. It is meaningless to preach to such people. Only by making them disappear from this world completely can the stable development of Black Storm City be guaranteed!

In fact, Sera was not twisted to this extent at the beginning. When she just killed Marcus and others, although she was dissatisfied with those gladiators, she still had certain expectations for them.

But what happened next completely wore out her patience, and she no longer trusted anyone except Alsophila.

There is nothing to worry about. With the sword given to her by Alsophila, no one can destroy Black Storm City!

It must be said that the Sword of Morphis also played a role in Sera's distortion.

It is its existence that allows Sera to stand firm, it is its existence that allows Sera to dare to ignore any consequences, and it is its existence that makes Sera like the taste of blood and believe that killing can solve many problems.

But even without the Sword of Morphis, Sera's distortion is inevitable, but she is unlikely to become as twisted as she is now.

After all, without the Sword of Morphis, she might not be able to get rid of Marcus, suppress those gladiators, survive the attack of those thugs from the north, or intimidate the civilians who were dissatisfied with her. She might have died before she became twisted to the extreme.

"The Sword of Murphys's inducing power is not as scary as imagined. No matter if it is a person with a clear mind like Alsophila or a stubborn person like Sera, they are not easily affected by it. The truly scary thing about it is the killing power it contains. Whoever controls the Sword of Murphys can easily deprive others of their lives. This power is the ominous source of the Sword of Murphys."

The nursery rhyme is thoughtful.

Alsophila spinulosa tried very hard to change the status quo, but she was destined to be disappointed.

Even though she expressed her views clearly through the words she had just learned, it still couldn't help Sera climb out of the abyss of distortion.

In fact, this action pushed Sera further into the abyss.

Sera felt betrayed.

She expected Alsophila to "wake up" after a long period of thinking, but reality hit her back hard.

Alsophila thought about it for so long, and finally learned to use words to dissuade her!

At the beginning, Alsophila was even willing to risk its life to save her, a stranger whom it had only known for more than ten days. From then on, she completely trusted Alsophila. She also thought that after she gained her freedom, she would definitely spend her whole life repaying Alsophila.

However, she never expected that the former silly lady would betray her trust, believe the rumors of those villains, and completely stand against her.

Sera couldn't help but laugh.

Even that silly lady could be bewitched, let alone others?

The ability of those villains to deceive is really terrifying, but no matter how terrifying it is, she will never, ever, ever give in.

After all, she still has the sword given to her by Miss Fool. As long as she has this sword, no matter how those villains make trouble, they can't cause any trouble.

"I will protect Black Storm City, no matter what the cost!"

The final straw for Sera was when she discovered that Alsophila was trying to take the Sword of Murphys away.

Although Alsophila did not take the sword away because of her timely appearance, there is nothing to say since he has this idea in mind.

Without this sword, how can she protect Black Storm City?

She would never allow anyone to take the sword away, even if that person was the sword's former owner and the person she once trusted the most!
