Black Iron’s Glory

Chapter 156: The Confession of Kevin

“I never thought there would be such a beautiful white palace in the mountain forest.” Kevin said that her face was red and her sleeves were high, revealing two truncated, round, clean arms. Long brown hair falls in front of your forehead and there is also a stain on your face, which you may encounter from time to time while wiping your windows.

“Of course, your cabin is nice, too. No wonder you haven't come to town in the woods.” The girl added that she was washing Claude's vegetables.

Claude rubbed the large chunks of beef cut into the pot, and the juice had to be roasted in the beef to taste good. Anyway, we were going to buy Velricolo a big meal, so Kevin was kept, and Claude said he'd send them back to town after dinner.

Seeing that Siori the Lin and his wife, Aunt Langhi, were also invited to dinner at night, perhaps knowing that he had gone to Claude's house to get a carriage of old furniture back didn't help much, some embarrassed Siori brought his wife to the cabin to help, not only helped clean up the garbage, but Siori also climbed on the roof to check to make sure the wood tiles were not rotten and leaking, it was also a help.

When Little Browick came to the woods, he forgot the pain of losing his father and playing on the lawn in front of the white villa. There was never that much free space for him and the little snowdogs to run and chase, and he went crazy for a while.

“It's quiet here, and I don't like the noise very much, so I rarely go to town after being the head of this forest.” Claude said.

“Yeah, I haven't seen you since graduation.” But the girl paused: “I thought I'd see you on New Year's Eve, but I was disappointed you didn't come. I can't believe you dressed like that when I ran into you on the way home, and you refused to admit it..."

Claude's hand shivered: “What are you talking about, I don't understand...”

The girl laughed hip-hop: “I know it's you, don't deny it, I actually knew it was you when I looked into your eyes, and you said something, and when I heard the sound, I recognized it as you. ”

Looking around, nobody, the girl whispered: “And that night, we were caught by a black snake, and you were the one who rushed into the house to save us...”

There is only one thought in Claude's mind: Should I kill someone...

“Does anyone else know who I am? Your sister and Gerard? ”

“Oh, you admit it? I knew it was you.” Girls are happy: “They don't know, I won't tell them, I know you rushed in that day to save me. Actually, I was worried sick about you. When I saw you dressed like that and looked into your eyes, I knew you were here. But it was funny that you asked that old Luke to rob Gerard, and Gerard was scared to death, and they said you were some kind of mysterious magician who was lucky enough to get away with it. ”

Claude looked at his hands and imagined that Kevin's soft neck had been broken by his hands, and Claude was disappointed to find that he couldn't do it. The girl was still complacent that she could discover Claude's secret, but she didn't think Claude around her had figured out how to end it.

“Kevin, promise me one thing and don't tell anyone about it, okay?” Claude said very seriously, turning to look into the girl's eyes.

The girl was stared at by Claude's golden eyes and suddenly blushed again, shyly lowering her head: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone, it's a secret that only you and I know. ”

Claude finally let go of his heart and as an old chauffeur of his past life, he knew exactly what the girl's face meant. But he didn't want to be an old driver, he just wanted to study and learn magic, and then live a life of freedom and freedom, and he didn't want any family to be tired. Getting to know Kevin is just a misunderstanding, or out of the help of friends around you, especially Erickson. The fact that little Claude, the former owner of this body, likes her doesn't mean the passers-by likes it.

While acknowledging that Kevin is a cute girl and will be a good wife in the future, Claude doesn't want to start a family that early. The world was so big, he wanted to see it, and the transcenders wanted to see the sights of the different worlds they crossed, and he wasn't going to tie himself up in this town.

Claude sighed softly and had to do so for a moment, believing that the girl could do it and would keep her secret. If anything changes in the future, Claude is not a pervert, and he can't afford to take the life of an innocent girl, especially a girl who says she likes herself, under a secret pretext.

“It's really important. It's a lot of people's lives, including my family, you know?” Claude can only be a reminder.

The girl nodded her lips together, meaning she was clear.

“By the way, will the Black Snake still bother you?” Claude asked.

“No, we're on the third floor of the Mermaid's Tavern, and will the Black Snake go there to mess it up? Uncle Alexim was my father's best friend. If he took care of our two sisters, would Black Snake be in trouble for us? They were mostly looking for Gerard, but Gerard had been hiding in the communal dock area, and they couldn't get in there. ”

The girl seemed to recall something funny, her eyes and eyebrows curved to the moon's teeth: "Bill, the big Black Snake club butcher, thought he could safely take over the common dock area in his guard uniform. Two naval battleships were unexpected, and the sailors disembarked and divided the docks into their defensive areas.

Black Snake will take his guard squadron to the dock to capture Gerard, the big butcher Bill, that weather, unexpectedly refused by the sailors, saying that the guards were not allowed to enter the military restricted zone without orders. Butcher Bill refused to leave, arguing with them, and then two Navy officers came out and told him to leave in front of the crowd. In the end, he rolled away, and this became the subject of a lot of fun for those who watched the scene. ”

Claude thought about it and said, "Actually, Gerard can't hide in the East. The Black Snake will now have the support of Sir Fox and the Mayor of Robert, and the Butcher Bill will be Squadron Leader of the Guard Corps. Next, the Black Snake will become more and more powerful in White Deer Town, and Gerard will have a hard time escaping their pursuit.

If Gerard wants to start a family with your sister Catherine, he can actually join the Navy. I look at the looks of those two warships, and it looks like there's something big going on in our town. And to think that my father and his friends got that new route to the mainland of Nubian, I figured White Deer Town might be an important base for the Royal Navy. ”

Now that the new route from White Deer Town to the mainland of Nubicia is no longer a secret in the town, the Navy Department has sent two battleships to White Deer Town, and many have speculated on whether to build a naval base here. Especially since the sea-surveillance reconnaissance vessel has been roaming Lake Beringa, busy measuring depth, giving the impression that the Royal Navy sent two battleships not as temporary docks, but as military clandestine operations with special intentions.

“If Gerard leans into the navy at this time and transfers the shares held by the shark club in the common dock area to the navy, it would be as good as sending charcoal in the snow for the navy. This is, of course, in view of the fact that, in the case of the Navy building a military base in White Deer Town, after all, the Navy is going to pay a large sum of money to acquire private land in the public dock area, and with the investment of the shark club, these costs could be saved a lot, so Gerard might be able to get an officer position for this credit.

Once in the Navy, Gerard had absolutely no need to hide from the covert search of the Black Snake or even wander around in front of them. The Black Snake will kill him and dare not touch him at all, or he will be uprooted on charges of conspiracy to rebel. Besides, when Gerard becomes a Navy officer, he can marry your sister brightly. I'm sure your sister would be happy to be a naval officer's wife. ”

After listening to Claude, Caffrey's eyes seemed like flashing stars: "How can you think of such a way? You're so smart, I'll go home and tell my sister. ”

“Wait, Kevin, it's not urgent. You have dinner and I'll send you back, then you can explain it to them.” Claude waves: “Not that I'm smart, some things come to mind, I'm just in the Bureau, not as clear as the spectators. ”

Claude thought about it and said to Kevin, "Actually, I'm sorry about that, too. After all, because my father planned to open a new route and organize a merchant fleet to sail, and Gerard's brother and the shark club's elite cadres were unaccounted for, Gerard is now being hunted down by the Black Snake Club, and they don't have the strength to fight back.

The shares in the common dock area currently in his possession, whether it's a tavern or a dock warehouse, are hot potatoes for him, unfortunately lost, and there's no gain to holding them. Why don't you just give it to the Navy and get yourself and your men a birthplace? Although they were not of military origin, they had all done their work on board, and life at sea was not unfamiliar to them, and they were the best for the Navy Department.

There is also the difference between the Navy and Army Departments, regardless of origin, and the easier promotion of officers, so Gerard can easily be reused if he leans on them. But you also have to make it clear to him that it's always dangerous to join the army, to be a member of the navy, more risky at sea than to be a fisherman. You need to get your sister and Gerard to think about it. ”

Claude didn't say that to Caffrey, but Mr. Morsan's suicide and burial sent someone else with so much emotion. Anyway, the shark club Gerard was also involved in the merchant fleet, and even if there was more shame about such an underground gang, Claude thought it would be better to find a way out, save them from being forced to live like rats by the Black Snake Club.

“I think my sister and Gerard would agree, Gerard has said several times in front of my sister that he doesn't want to be acting chairman of the shark club. But he couldn't help it, and his brother would hand the shark over to him before he went out, and he had to barely support it. If the Black Snake would treat him with courtesy, he even thought about handing over his shares and manpower to the Black Snake Club, dissolving the Shark Club, marrying my sister himself and being a fisherman.

I just didn't expect Bowen, the fat cow of the Black Snake Club, to bring so many people to the door that he forced us to resist with a crossbow arrow, grabbed us, took us into the house and killed Brother Abrenk in front of us, forced Gerard to hand over shares and the roster, and said he was going to sell our sisters to those places... by then I would have been really desperate... if you hadn't come to the door... "

Kevin said that her eyes sparkled with tears, but her eyes on Claude were also hot.

Claude was embarrassed to touch his nose, and he was sure he was rushing in for robbery, and he was going crazy. Saving people is just a smooth thing, not really for her, but the girl obviously misunderstood: “Cough, cough, the past is over, you promised me not to reveal our secrets, so you can't say that I saved you...”

“Sorry, almost forgot.” The girl threw up her tongue and nodded graciously: "By the way, Claude, will you ever enlist again? ”

“I don't know...” Claude was a little confused and unexpected that the passers-by could not control his own destiny: “This is not a question of my inability to go, it is a question of when the conscription order will be sent to me in my hands. There is no way for a physical student like me to avoid a conscription order. So there are some things I have to think about, and I can't make any promises. After all, anything can happen on the battlefield...”

Claude thought that this kind of answer might let the girl out of her mind, but he was disappointed because the girl blinked her big, bright eyes and looked at him and said, “It's okay, I'll wait. I'm sure you will return safely...”
