Mages Are Too OP

Chapter 358: Simple Women

Roland had some difficulty answering Cage's question.

His relationship with Andonala is unclear. Say they are lovers, they have no real relationship, say no, the relationship between them is quite vague.

Even if Roland wants to, he can always take the last step.

So Roland didn't answer, he just stood still.

After a while, without hearing Roland's answer, Cage was somewhat disappointed. He turned to look at the former and said seriously: "Anna was the one I grew up looking at. I was her swordsmanship teacher and her uncle, saying that half her father had never thought of it. What does she want, I rarely stop, but why do you think the royal family would let you do that if you took a queen? ”

Because of the slow flow of information and the fact that the royal family deliberately suppressed the Queen's abduction, Cage was not clear, and the royal family had long let the Queen's actions go.

“Don't worry about the royal side," Roland smiled. ”

Cage opened his eyes, and he gauged Roland for a moment with a foxy attitude, and finally frowned, “Are you confident or arrogant? ”

“It's been three or four months since Andorra came to me.” Roland also took a few steps forward, holding the white stone guard on the balcony with his hands, and said, "For so long, if the royal family really had the heart to fight us, we wouldn't be so relaxed. ”

Cage slaps the stone bars hard: “You're pretty good, I can feel it. Young people, all your life, you're good, but compared to Anna, there's still some distance, and it shouldn't be possible for you to stop the royal family. ”

“What if I'm not dead? ”

Cage was first stunned, then silenced, and finally, "No wonder it was the Golden Son. ”

Even if news of this place in Reed Village is blocked, there are outsiders, the name of the Golden Son Hehe, and Cage has naturally heard of it.

Don't talk about ordinary people, even if it's Cage who thinks he's in love with the Golden Son, it's going to be the same.

Most people are scared of chopping up things that will bring them back to life.

Roland smiled slightly at Cage and looked very modest.

Cage turned around, leaning back against the balcony guardrail, and he held his chest in his hands and said, "Since she's with you and willing to leave you as queen, it seems she trusts you very much, the kind that she trusts in her bones. ”

Roland nodded, and he felt it.

“So don't fail Anna's feelings for you. ”

Roland sighed slightly and asked, "Andonala is very powerful, but why did she develop this extreme insecurity? ”

This is also a strange place for Roland.

A powerful woman like Andonala should be very confident, cheerful, and well-behaved.

It shouldn't be a woman like a vine.

Cage thought quietly and said, "My brother Caesar did not inherit much blood from our family, he had poor fighting skills, and although he had a small aristocratic status, he was living a bit of a painful life. So he went to become a businessman, took the merchant team to the east, made money for his family, and his wife and daughter, Andonala, stayed in their little house in Wangcheng, and they were still poor and couldn't afford a maid. At the age of four, almost five, Andonala's mother was suddenly seriously ill. I don't know the details, but I don't think even the priest had time to find her, and there was no one left. ”

Roland had a heart attack.

Cage continued in a quiet and gentle tone: "There was a small estate in the remote corner of the Imperial City, where, after the death of her brother and sister, four-year-old Andonala lived for a month on her own. A month later, Caesar, who had made a fortune, returned to the Imperial City and saw a tragedy. ”

Roland held his hands together and subconsciously squeezed them gently against each other.

Cage took a deep breath: “When Caesar saw his wife's body lying on the bed, it had melted into a rotten bone with maggots all over the wet yellow bed. And it was so skinny that Anna, already skinny, slept in the corner with her mother's clothes, covered in mud sand and stench, and many maggots drilled around in her hair and clothes. ”

“Anna was already in a coma and dying, if my brother was two or three days late...”

“Afterwards, we deduced from the scene that Anna hadn't eaten all day for a whole month. My brother Caesar also found a lot of rotten fruit and stem fruit by his wife's pillow. Those should have been found or dug out by Anna in the meadow of the estate, she ate some herself, and the rest was left with her mother, who might want to wake up, hug her again and play with her after eating. ”

“We can't imagine a four-year-old girl living alone in a huge estate for her, how her mother couldn't wake up, couldn't respond, was hungry and thirsty, the whole world was dark at night, nobody responded to her, nobody came to comfort her, and her mother was getting worse and worse and weirder... I dare not think about this fear, let alone a four-year-old girl. ”

Roland looked up at the sky and blinked his eyes hard, feeling a little wet in his eyes.

“When my brother asked the priest to bring Anna back, he buried his wife and set fire to the ashes of the small estate. With the money earned, he bought a much bigger estate in the rich neighborhood and hired many servants to serve Anna. Afterwards, the Anna people woke up nasty, always went to the grass to find wild fruit and dig a stem, said to feed her, Mom would sit up and play with her again. But if she can't find her mother in her new home, she always has to run outside, and whoever stops her will scream and punch and kick. ”

Roland sucked his nose and asked, "So Andonala hasn't felt safe since? ”

“It took Anna a a year to stop looking for wild fruits and root stems and gradually forget about her mother.” Cage sighed: “After that, Anna also began to be indifferent to her father, since her brother was running outside, walking east, spending less time with his daughter, and the relationship between the two was not as intimate as the average father and daughter. After that, Anna would always consciously stay away from her father. She forgot a lot, but her instincts still blame her father. Why didn't she come back early to save her mother? The situation did not improve until she was twelve years old. ”

Tragic things, Roland has heard and seen a lot in the information society.

But all outsiders, or unfamiliar people, can be sad and sad to see words and pictures, but there's always a slightly less real feeling in this emotion.

It's just empathy acting weird.

Because those people are strangers.

But this time, Andonala was his acquaintance, a very familiar friend.

Such a tragedy happened to one's family and friends, and after listening, it felt completely different.

Roland had no idea that Andonala, who was so powerful but always a very small woman, had such a tragic experience.

No wonder she was already a queen, but she followed herself so easily, just because the royal family wanted to ‘give up’ on her and promised to protect her.

A woman who demands so much simplicity.
