Sword Sorcery - Chapter 21
[Chapter 21 Goodbye]
It is impossible for the castle to be spared, and Aaron has a deep understanding of this from the beginning.
Therefore, Aaron has to start preparing for the next escape, at least so that when the escape begins, he will not appear so panicked and have a higher chance of survival than others.
“Yes, I want to buy a horse.”
Aaron said to Jerry with certainty, and his extremely serious look also made Jerry dispel the idea of ‘this guy in front of him is joking’. Although it was unbelievable, Jerry knew – Aaron really wanted to buy one. horse.
“A horse is not cheap.” Jerry snorted. “Especially a horse that runs fast and has endurance.”
Aaron didn’t talk to him, and sipped the hot butter ale one by one, making Jerry realize his determination, so Jerry waved his hand, leaned in and whispered:
“Well, I’ll have a secret talk with Vernon, who is in charge of feeding the horses, to see if there is any chance of him ‘leaving’ a good horse, and I’ll let you know when there is news, how about that?”
Aaron nodded slightly, and calmly shoved three more silver coins. Jerry’s old face suddenly burst into laughter, and he hurriedly took the silver coins into his arms, very flattering: “Aaron, don’t worry, this is It’s all up to me, and I’ll definitely do it for you!”
Just as Aaron nodded in satisfaction, wanted to drink the butter ale in the cup, and turned to leave here, a discordant voice suddenly sounded:
“Yo~, isn’t this Aaron? Why didn’t you work in the village, but came here instead?”
Hearing this voice, Aaron’s movements suddenly stopped, and an imperceptible sneer crossed the corner of his mouth. He turned and calmly looked at the person who stopped him——
A face covered with pimples and large pores appeared in front of him, and the mediocre facial features were matched with deliberately mocking expressions, which seemed very disgusting.
This man was Nelson who beat up his ex Aaron at the bar.
For a long time, it seems that Nelson and Aaron have always been in a wrong way. There have been some small frictions between the two before, but this is the first time that they have really beaten them.
It was also at that time that the predecessor Aaron suffered a huge mental blow. He took the other people in the group and went to the village one night ahead of schedule to be stationed. In the end, he was passed through by his soul because of poisoning.
Thinking of this, Aaron’s expression became more and more calm. Those who were familiar with him in the previous life would immediately know that Aaron’s heart had quite negative emotions – such as anger.
However, this scene was completely different in Nelson’s eyes. In his opinion, Aaron, who had been beaten up by himself and poured beer on his head by the way, should be quite afraid in his heart. himself, so his performance was rightfully seen by Nelson as a retreat from the underdog.
“Yo? What’s wrong? Aaron, why are you not talking?”
Nelson pressed the question step by step, his face filled with joy and pride.
In Nelson’s mind, if this Aaron dared to refute him, he could just find a reason to continue beating him up. It was considered that he took this opportunity to vent, which would be good for his physical and mental health~!
Anyway, the whereabouts of his quasi-knight adoptive father is still unknown. Nine times out of ten, he died in the wild. No one will come to Aaron anymore, and he doesn’t need to worry about anything anymore.
Just like the last time, he beat Aaron wildly, but Aaron didn’t take any revenge afterward. He could only take someone to the village in advance to do his duty, while he continued happily in the bar. How happy is it to drink?
Hearing Nelson’s words, several fellow soldiers who came with Nelson also laughed very cooperatively–
“Of course he didn’t dare to speak, after all you beat him so badly last time,
I’m afraid it left him a psychological shadow, right?
Hahaha~!
”
“Haha~, that makes sense! Nelson, you’ll be so frightened that Aaron doesn’t dare to speak. You look so pitiful~? Hahahaha~!”
“Oh, I’m dying of laughter, this Aaron is really a softie. Without his quasi-knight adoptive father, he’s really a piece of shit that everyone can step on~! Haha~!”
The burst of laughter attracted everyone else in the bar to look over, and then, these good people started to communicate with each other—
“What happened? Are those soldiers fighting?”
“Hey~, I heard that the one named Aaron and the other named Nelson, who made a big fuss at the bar last week…”
Soon, after some exchanges, most people knew about the contradiction between Aaron and Nelson, and many people cast pity on Aaron, thinking that this guy is really unlucky – last week, people were crazy A beating doesn’t count, and now I came to drink and happened to meet this old enemy. It seems that this Aaron seems to be humiliated again.
Among the onlookers, someone couldn’t help sighing secretly: “It’s really pitiful~, I didn’t expect this Aaron to grow such a good skin in vain. humiliation.”
Similarly, someone echoed in a low voice: “Yeah~, he used to rely on his adoptive father to cover him, but now that his adoptive father is dead, he can’t even keep his dignity, hey~, who is the relationship household who sneaked into the City Guard through his connections? It won’t last long~!”
Listening to the whispers around him, Nelson’s heart was full of joy, but when his eyes fell on Aaron’s face with a calm expression, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of boredom in his heart, as if through Aaron’s pair of black ink. eyes, and saw the reflection of his mediocre and embarrassing appearance——
The facial features are mediocre and not three-dimensional, the face is full of acne, the pores are thick and large, etc.
These are the ills in Nelson’s mind.
Especially at this moment, Aaron has already cleaned the blood on his body, revealing a handsome and handsome face. The comparison of the two highlights Nelson’s mediocre appearance, which makes him feel that Aaron is extremely annoying.
Thinking of this, Nelson couldn’t help but clenched his hands quietly, with a faint glint of jealousy in his eyes: “This Aaron is really annoying…”
A long time ago, Nelson hated this Aaron quite a bit, because Aaron had a prospective knight adoptive father who could easily get into the position of team leader——
As the team leader, Aaron can sleep directly in the spacious room on the second floor. He doesn’t have to be like himself. Because he is an ordinary soldier, he can only sleep in the narrow and small room on the first floor.

At the same time, Aaron’s monthly salary is also twice as much as himself, and there is a separate small bathroom in the second-floor room for daily bathing. There is no need to go to the smelly and dirty public bathroom, which is like taking a shower every time. To be smoked to death…
The more Nelson thought about it, the more unfair he felt, and his eyes even faintly burst into flames. At this time, Jerry, who was standing behind the bar, saw that the situation was not good, and Gu Nian realized that Aaron had ‘stuffed’ himself a lot of tips just now. , and hurriedly stood up to persuade:
“Okay, both of you are soldiers of the Viscount, don’t make a fuss over a little thing, I’ll invite you for this glass of wine today.”
With that said, Jerry poured Nelson a big glass of hot butterbeer that was just boiled. When Nelson saw this, the anger in his eyes began to dissipate, and he snorted heavily towards Aaron, who had a calm expression on his face:
“For Jerry’s sake, I’ll let you go today and get out of the bar immediately!”
“Next time, you won’t have such good luck.”
With that said, Nelson reached out and touched the steaming butterbeer, but a long, white hand blocked Nelson’s move——
“Did I let you drink?”
Aaron’s seemingly calm voice sounded, and the next moment, the slender white hand grabbed the steaming butterbeer and suddenly smashed it towards Nelson——
boom!
!
!
The big glass made of glass collided with Nelson’s stunned face, and the glass shattered into pieces. blister!
“Ah~!”
Nelson’s screams suddenly resounded in the bar!
