MTL - Please Sink In Happiness-Chapter 19

"That's right."

"Miss, what should we do to make him your loyal subordinate?" Charena asked.

"It's very simple," Ivy's mouth flashed with a confident smile, "that is, if you give him enough favors, he will definitely be loyal to me."

On the arena, Li Ergou carried a long spear and ended the last person's life without being injured.

In the entire deathmatch, the injuries his spear inflicted were almost instant fatal wounds, and no one died in pain.

This is the only kindness Li Ergou can do.

Chapter 39 Temporary Happiness

"I'm sorry, Miss Ivy, today's Dongzhou man is not for sale."

The jailer of the slave arena lowered his head and did not dare to look at the powerful elf girl in front of him, as if those calm eyes like water could easily see through all the lies.

He lied just now, because the man named Li had already been booked by Prince Louis with three million gold coins.

According to common sense, if Miss Ivy also wanted to buy the man, she could participate in the auction reasonably, but the jailer was worried that he would offend Prince Louis, so he had to lie.

As a middle-class society, offending an upper-ranking aristocrat is a capital crime, so at this moment the jailer is frightened, for fear that the rumored genius girl will see through the lie, and then torture him to death like an ant being pinched to death.

"It's not for sale, that's a pity."

Avella said in a long tone.

"It's a pity, after all, Mr. Li is a rare genius. We haven't seen a gladiator as talented as him in our slave arena for a long time, so..."

"I understand, you don't have to say it anymore. Although I regret it, I don't have to."

"Thank you for your understanding."

Elegant, polite, and generous, Miss Ivy is just as rumored, making everyone who talks to him have a feeling of being immersed in heaven.

However, this is not the true face of Miss Ivy.

After leaving the slave arena, Ivy showed an expression of obvious disgust.

"Miss Ivy, if you don't like the slave arena, you don't have to come by yourself." The maid walked up to Ivy and said, "If that toad invites you again, you will say that you are not feeling well."

"Xia Lena, even if I don't come to the slave arena, the slave arena will still not disappear," Ivy couldn't help but glance back at the slave arena, her cold eyes like frost, "It's really vulgar entertainment."

Ivy deeply hates the slave system and all the rotten and backward systems of the Shengluer Kingdom. Although the current Shengluer Kingdom is known as the No. 1 army power in the Great Western Continent, Ivy has foreseen that one day, this The day when the country was divided by various powers.

That day will definitely come, maybe three years, maybe five years, no more than ten years.

At that time, Louis X. Elba will surely die under the guillotine of the people.

This country of drunken gold fans will one day bring its own annihilation.

For this, she needs strong subordinates and talents who can pave the way for her dominance.

The oriental man with the spear was clearly the kind of talent she needed.

"By the way, Miss, has the negotiation been successful?"

Charlene asked softly.

"As expected, he was targeted by Louis." Ivy said with great certainty, "That prince will do anything he can if he wants to get his hands on something."

Charlene was a little disappointed, not because she was disappointed not to be able to buy that man, but because the eldest lady she respected would be placed by Louis.

"But it's a coincidence that I'm also the kind of unscrupulous person." Ivy sneered, and then softly called the maid's name, "Shalena."

"Miss, what are your orders?"

Ivy was close to Xia Leina's ear and whispered her plan.

…

After the battle, Li Ergou returned to the cell. Today is completely different for Li Ergou than before.

In the past, he killed beasts and monsters.

Today, he killed living people. Li Ergou had no grievances with them, but in order to survive, he had to kill them.

Although killing them is not painful, Li Ergou is definitely not happy.

"Friend, if you have the chance to go to the Hill Forest in the Fars Federation, please tell my family that you don't have to wait for me anymore..."

When Li Ergou pierced the body of the elves with a spear, he said so.

"Well, so I don't have to be humiliated again, thank you, brother."

An orc died in laughter as the blade slid down his throat.

In fact, when Li Ergou killed those who were selfish and acted purely for evil thoughts, he would not have the slightest resistance, and even had a pleasant feeling, so during his time as a mercenary, he Terrorists can be shot with bullets without mercy, because in his opinion, those guys are not people, but a group of two-legged beasts.

But when the enemy he faced became a flesh and blood person who lived an ordinary life in the world like himself, Li Ergou felt a heavy heart.

"When Lao Tzu goes out, I will definitely pay it back!"

A punch hit the wall of the cell, and a big hole appeared on the wall.

It was the first time Aishwana saw such an angry Li Ergou. Although he still had no injuries as usual, Aishwana knew with her keen intuition that Li Ergou must have encountered something very unpleasant just now. thing.

She leaned over to Li Ergou's side, and suddenly found that his fist was bleeding from the hard blow just now, she couldn't help feeling distressed, and grabbed Li Ergou's hand:

"You're bleeding, Ergou..."

Aishwana gently licked Li Ergou's wound, Li Ergou's heart softened again, he touched the slightly wiggling cat's ears and said:

"Aishwana, we must escape from here as soon as possible."

Li Ergou looked at Aishwana's pretty face. He didn't want Aishwana to have the same experience as himself one day. He hoped that this kind, simple and somewhat silly child would always have the character he is now.

"Ergou, you must cheer up, I will always stand by your side." She snuggled lightly in Li Ergou's arms, looking very submissive.

"Aishwana, thank you."

"Why thank me? Did I do anything great?"

"You really didn't do anything great," Li Ergou's arm gently took him into his arms, feeling her heartbeat and body temperature, "but it's a very amazing thing that you exist in the world."

"Hey, I don't think you're complimenting me, but I'm so shy." Aishwana's eyebrows turned into crescents. In the past, Li Ergou instructed her to keep a poker face, but now Li Ergou found that Aishwana really did. It's still like being in a mood to look cute.

Unconsciously, Li Ergou has become the biggest cat slave.

"By the way, Aishwana, dance for me, I want to see it."

"Um."

Under the moonlight, Li Ergou clapped his hands while admiring Aishwana's graceful dance.

The freedom outside the window was blocked by the pitch-black fence, but Li Ergou felt extremely lucky.

"strangeness…"

"Er dog, why are you crying?"

Aishwana who stopped dancing immediately stepped forward and asked with concern.

"It's okay, you continue to dance, I'm just... By the way, this is probably happiness. I can see you dancing every day, this must be happiness, and sometimes happiness will cry. Silly child, don't worry about me, you are not the best Do you like dancing?"

"Well, I continue to dance, Ergou don't cry anymore, like a child."

Li Ergou looked at the bright moon and said silently to the long-lost sister - look, brother, I am very happy now, please don't worry about me.

Chapter 40 The man who visited late at night

In the middle of the night, the cat-eared girl who hugged Li Ergou shivered. Without Ergou, she really didn't know how she would spend the cold night. Fortunately, his back was warm enough, which made her feel at ease. fall asleep.

"Er dog, are you asleep?"

"No."

"Aren't you going to sleep so late?"

"When you fall asleep, I will too." Li Ergou said softly, "Go to bed earlier, Aishwana."

"You too, Ergou."

Aishwana's arms were lightly placed on Li Ergou's neck. In this dark space, Aishwana was not only not afraid, but felt more and more excited.

In her eyes now, freedom is not important at all. As long as she can be with Ergouji, there is nothing wrong with being imprisoned like this. She even forgot her kingdom of Sri Lanka, her hometown, and just wanted to be with her beloved. Stay together.

She took off the rosary and turned into a girl, humming the folk songs of her hometown with her original crisp oriole-like voice, a song that can only be sung at weddings.

Although they are not married yet, does that matter? Anyway, for Aishwana, they are already a soul-stirring couple, and one day, their bodies will be shameless to each other...

Her face instantly became hot.

There is nothing to be shy about, Ergou is the key to open the lock of her heart. When the key is opened, the gods will give us baby cats. This is a myth that has been passed down a long time ago.

"Aishwana, are you all right? Do you have a fever?"

Li Ergou touched Aishwana's forehead, and she immediately shyly got into the bed and hunched over, her long hazel hair was messed up, creating a messy feeling afterwards.

"That stupid boy."

He smiled dotingly, this catgirl is more like a sister worthy of care than a lover.

— tick, tick, tick.

Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the door. In the early hours of the morning, there would be patrols. They were mainly responsible for checking whether there were slaves who planned to escape. However, according to Li Ergou's recent observations, this was just a formality.

But just in case, Li Ergou helped Aishwana put on a rosary, so that she immediately changed from a cat-eared girl to a cat-eared boy.

The footsteps stopped and stopped outside the cells of Li Ergou and Aishwana.

Aishwana nervously hugged Li Ergou's body like a frightened little animal. Li Ergou gently stroked her cat ears, signaling her not to make a sound.

Li Ergou knew very well that the people outside the door were coming for him.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Li asleep?"

From the voice of the voice, it can be heard that the person standing outside the door is not the familiar bald jailer, but someone else.

In the past, Li Ergou once thought that those passages that judge a person's strength based on his voice will only appear in third-rate fantasy novels, but at this moment, Li Ergou does not know why, but he can indeed feel the person outside the door. There is a strong breath.

"You didn't fall asleep, I know that, although your breathing is very smooth and your heart beat is not disordered, but you are awake, so you don't have to pretend."

Before, Li Ergou once thought that in this slave arena, the jailers and guards were all trash fish, but the man outside the door seemed to be completely different from those trash fish.

This means that in the near future, if Li Ergou really intends to escape with Aishwana, he will have to face existences like him.

"Allow me to come in and talk."

The man who walked into the door was wearing an ordinary jailer's costume. Like Li Ergou, he had black hair. His face was an Asian face. If it was placed in a sea of ​​people, that face should be that kind of fast. will hide in the crowd.

But this does not mean that he deserves Li Ergou to relax his vigilance, because Li Ergou has heard that people who are proficient in assassination are often ordinary people who seem to be ordinary.

The man didn't speak, but Li Ergou had already made a general judgment about him in his heart.

He stood in front of Aishwana with his body and said to the ordinary black-haired man:

"Are you an assassin?"

"No, as you can see, I'm just a jailer." The man saluted Li Ergou and said in the Dongzhou language, "My surname is Xu, my real name is Sarutobi, and I come from Dongzhou. We are fellow villagers."

"Mr. Xu, what are you doing to visit the humble house so late at night?"

"Give you freedom."

"Give me freedom?"

Li Ergou smiled, of course he wouldn't believe this man's one-sided words.

"You should know that I have become a cash cow in the arena now, right? Is it any good for you to let go of a cash cow like me?"

"There is no benefit for me, but for Miss Ivy, it is a huge profit." Xu said, "Your strength is seen by the young lady I am loyal to, so she hopes you can escape from here. Go and assist her as a subordinate."

"Then, I will become the slave of the Miss Ivy you mentioned, right?" Li Ergou asked with a sneer.

"It's a subordinate," Xu said. "The eldest miss is looking at your strength, which can also be said to be a business. She gives you freedom, and you work for her. After you go out, you don't have to work for those vulgar people. You get paid, housing, and even protection for that teenage girl behind you.”

When talking about "girls", although Li Ergou didn't show a surprised expression, he still raised his eyebrows slightly, and this kind of detail did not escape Xu's eyes.

"Mr. Li, Miss Ivy already knows that the slave behind you is a girl, so you don't have to hide it anymore, we will help you escape."

"I don't believe you." Li Ergou frowned slightly and said, "There is no free lunch in this world."

"It's true that there is no free lunch in the world, but maybe there is a free breakfast or a free dinner. As I said just now, Miss Ivy wants to reuse you."
