In an instant, seven pairs of wolf-like eyes stared at Pedro.
Looking at the eyes cast on him, Pedro swallowed hard.
"Sor...Lord Sauron, can I participate in this operation?"
As if worried that Sauron would disagree, Pedro quickly added:
"I don't want any reward, I just ask you... I just ask you to let me participate in this operation!"
His red and swollen eyes were like a rabbit, and his body was trembling slightly, as if he was forcibly holding back something.
"Oh? Give me a reason!"
Zoro looked at the big man in front of him in surprise.
"I want to avenge Gray." Pedro said through gritted teeth.
After looking at him deeply, Zoro nodded: "Okay!"
"Bode, you and York should deal with Gray's funeral!"
"Sver, send Carl back to Monica, she will know what to do."
"Drew, Rudas and Seth, the three of you return the bodies of those three monsters to the castle."
"Albert, go and notify Kahn to come see me."
Sauron gave instructions to everyone in an orderly manner.
Looking at the sky that was turning fish belly white, he couldn't help but sigh: "What a troubled time it has been!"
This was indeed the case, not to mention the invasion of another world that he had never seen before.
What I have experienced in these two days alone is more exciting than those Hollywood blockbusters.
The shield crab corpses outside the village were not yet rotten when another alien came out, which made Sauron feel a little headache.
"Am I really a pig's trotter? A son of the world? I have a constitution of 13."
………
Tuk-tuk-tuk~
There was a slow and rhythmic knock on the door.
"Here we come!" A soft female voice came from inside the room.
Crunch~
As the wooden door is opened from the inside.
Pedro's tall body leaked out from the lawn outside the house.
Amorin stood in the house, holding a wooden bowl in her hand, looking at Pedro standing outside the door, looking a little uneasy.
"Brother Pedro, where is Gray? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Faced with Amorin's doubts, Pedro didn't know how to respond.
boom!
He knelt directly in front of Amorin: "Amorin, I'm sorry!"
Pedro lowered his head in shame.
Because he really didn't know how to face the woman in front of him.
Seeing Pedro's posture, Amorin couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands.
The wooden bowl that was originally resting in his hand fell to the ground and rolled several times, making a bang-bang-bang sound.
His body staggered back two steps and collapsed in the entrance hall of the house.
Amorin felt as if everything in her eyes had lost its luster.
Her colorful world became extremely gloomy at this moment.
Although Amorin had vaguely guessed some possibilities, she still didn't want to believe it.
Amorin began to feel a little excited.
She quickly got up from the ground, stepped forward, grabbed Pedro's collar and pulled hard, her words carrying a hint of crying:
"Pedro, what do you mean? Where's Gray? Gray?"
"Didn't Gray go out with you? Where is he now?"
"Are you talking? Are you mute?"
Pedro, who was kneeling on the ground, just let Amorin pull him.
Only he himself knows the bitter taste in his heart.
Bode and York, who were standing not far away, looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Gray's unexpected death was a huge blow to both Amorin and little Annie.
The wife lost her husband, the daughter lost her father, and the family became separated from each other.
Looking at Pedro who was still silent, Amorin turned her attention to the two men not far away.
She was like a drowning person grasping at the only life-saving straw.
"Tell me, this is not true, right? Nothing happened to Gray at all, right? Right?"
Amorin's voice revealed a hint of longing.
She expected that York and Bode would give her the same answer as she had in mind.
York and Bode looked at each other, and their eyes began to intensely conflict.
In a burst of invisible swords and sword shadows, Bode was finally defeated.
In desperation, Bode had no choice but to step forward.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Grey! Mr. Grey... Mr. Gray... died."
As Bode finished speaking, Amorin looked in disbelief.
She backed away and shouted desperately: "No! No! I said he would be back soon."
"Yes...it's you, it's you, you must have teamed up to deceive me."
She slumped to the ground helplessly, tears falling down unsatisfactorily.
"Condolences!"
"Gray's body...the body has been temporarily placed in the castle by Lord Sauron." As if he felt that his statement was not appropriate, Bode quickly changed his words:
"Lord Sauron will personally hold Gray's funeral in three days."
Bode felt a little confused about Sauron's arrangements.
Because according to the previous rules in the territory, if a serf died, he only needed to return the body to his family, and the lord did not need to worry about the rest.
But this time Zoro did the opposite.
Not only did he fail to return the body to the family, he also held a funeral for the family.
This is simply unprecedented.
"If you and Annie want to see Gray one last time these days, you can go directly to the castle. Lord Sauron has already arranged everything."
After saying all this, Bode's heart seemed a little heavy.
"Maybe one day, I might be like Gray and die in obscurity."
While Amorin was still immersed in sadness, Bode turned his head and winked at York.
"Are you leaving or not?"
As York nodded slightly, the two turned and left this "sad place".
About half an hour passed before the two of them left.
Amorin slowly stood up from the ground.
It's just that it can be seen from her dull eyes that there is one less thing in this world that is worthy of her nostalgia.
Amorin staggered back to the house like a walking zombie that had lost its soul.
When he passed Pedro, who was still kneeling on the ground, there was no reaction.
boom!
A loud slamming sound echoed in Pedro's ears for a long time.
Pedro lowered his head and couldn't help but smile bitterly, then stood up from the ground and left Gray's house.
And the direction he was heading towards was Sauron's castle.
"Woooooo~"
Behind the door of the house, Amorin sat on the ground in the entrance like a helpless little girl, leaning against the door and sobbing softly.
The happy memories between himself and Gray kept popping up in his mind.
From the first time the two met to the first taste of the forbidden fruit to the birth of the continuation of their lives.
The thousands of happy days and nights we spent together all flowed out like spring water at this moment.
However, just when Amorin was reminiscing about the past, a milky voice brought her back to reality.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
The source of the sound was little Annie who was sleeping in the room.
I saw Anne timidly hiding behind the sliding door and looking at Amorin.
However, the little girl's next words made Amorin's emotions completely out of control, like a flash flood.
"Mom, has dad come back to bully you?"
"Dad is a bad guy, he only knows how to bully mom and Annie."
Amorin rolled over and rushed towards little Annie, hugging her in her arms:
"No...no! Dad didn't bully mom, phew~"
"Dad... Huh~ Dad... loves Annie and Mom very much, Huh~"
"Baby, promise mommy you won't leave mommy in the future, okay?"
