Chapter 441 Ozler Will Not Forget
Chapter 441 Ozler Will Not Forget
"No, Andre, no—"
This wave of beasts caused quite a stir. If His Highness Claire had not come with reinforcements, the commander would have even considered lowering the heavy stone door to keep the danger out. Fortunately, everything was still in time, but there were heavy casualties. Some people cried and howled in front of everyone, holding on to their brother's broken body and refusing to let go.
Bobby struggled to squeeze through the people in front of him and finally came to the front of the human wall, witnessing the scene in his nightmare again.
The flames ignited by magic melted the snow around the ground, and the surrounding area was filled with water vapor. Everyone silently tidied up the appearance of the departed person, and then threw him into the flames. After the flames twisted a few times, there was no trace of the body. This person disappeared from the world from then on...
Bobby clenched his fists and turned his head away in embarrassment, then he saw the noisiest group of people near the fire. Daniel seemed to have lost his mind due to excessive grief. He held the remains of his cousin that he had picked up, unwilling to let people throw him into the fire.
Bobby was confused and uncertain - was he seeing things? After all, it was on a high wall and so far away. Maybe, maybe it was just an illusion, and he had a prejudice against Daniel...
"All right, Daniel." Claire, the Duke's eldest son who came to support, came over and patted Daniel on the shoulder to comfort him, "Be strong. Without your brother in front of you, you are no longer a child. Do you understand?"
Daniel looked up in astonishment, his eyes red.
"Ozler will never forget that Knight Russell is a hero of this land." Claire said in a deep voice, prying Daniel's hands apart bit by bit. The figure below was bloody and his head was twisted and hanging down, as if it had been broken. "He has tried his best. Now, let his soul return to peace."
Daniel stopped trying to stop them and watched as Her Highness Claire dragged Andre's body away from him and threw it into the flames together with the others.
"boom--"
The flames violently surged and rose a little higher. Daniel's tense shoulders suddenly relaxed. His beard, which had not been taken care of for many days, trembled violently. His face twitched nervously as if he could not control it.
——Is he... laughing? Bobby, who had been observing him, couldn't help but take a few steps forward again, but the other party noticed the change in the crowd and suddenly shot a sharp look at him!
…………
"What did you see?" Daniel asked again in the night.
"I don't know what you're talking about, Daniel." Bobby wrapped his cotton robe tightly around him and tried to keep his tone steady.
The lights flickered on the city wall, those were the patrolling soldiers checking the night defense line. Under the city wall, those night wanderers had already taken off, and no one knew where they had gone. Only two people were standing quietly in the snowy night.
"You've been looking at me these past two days, Bobby, do you have any problem with me?"
"No!" Bobby immediately shook his head to deny it, but it felt awkward, so he quickly explained, "I'm just worried about you, Daniel. After all, you just lost a loved one."
It was too cold. The cotton robe he put on temporarily was not warm enough. Bobby was shivering with cold and his voice was trembling - Daniel was more perceptive than he thought. Did he really always look at him?
The snow suddenly became quiet. In the distance, a team passed by and headed for the command hall ahead which was still brightly lit. His Highness Claire was still staying at the Jinsha outpost. Everyone had a lot of work to discuss with him. When the team passed by the two of them, they only took a quick glance and then looked away.
Daniel watched the passerby walk into the command hall before he spoke again. He did not respond to Bobby's concern, "Where are you going at this late hour, Bobby?"
"It's convenient for me to go."
"The toilet is over there." Daniel tilted his head.
"It's brighter here, I'm used to walking this way." Bobby didn't know why he had to explain. He was always afraid when facing Daniel.
The snowy night fell into dead silence again.
"You, do you have anything else to say, Daniel? I can't hold it anymore." Bobby gritted his teeth.
"Really? It seems you don't need help. Then go quickly." Daniel took a few steps back and pretended to go back to the barracks.
Bobby turned around and walked away, heading towards the toilet. However, after walking for a long time in the light from the city wall, he couldn't help but look back again at the toilet door.
Daniel was still standing there. Even though his facial features could no longer be seen clearly, Bobby knew that he was still staring at him.
A chill ran from his back to the back of his head, and Bobby turned around suddenly.
He, he might not have seen it wrong! The person on the city wall that day was——
"Dang Cang! Dang Cang!"
The brass bell on the city wall suddenly rang, and the sound spread far in the silent night sky! Claire in the command hall suddenly opened the curtain and walked out, and saw the sentry on the city wall pulling the bell rope and screaming down -
"Beast tide! Big beast tide——!"
