Chapter 1634 Frogampfog (Twenty-Two)
No. 1g&fog (twenty-two)
Before the carnival began, the suitors who had gathered in the capital left,
On this continent, there is actually a custom of fighting to recruit brides.
I only promised to give prizes to the champions. I did not say that the winner would marry a princess.
What's more, I have prepared magnificent horses, golden chariots, and the old king's silver plate as prizes for the champions.
It is said that the plate was obtained from the Giant Bear Kingdom. Although it is called the Giant Bear, it is actually a small country.
It perished because of a furbolg in the forest. The old king found it in the ruins of the castle during his expedition.
I don't expect the little money the old king gave me to support an army.
But the people of the Sheep Kingdom are fond of gambling. After I have money and an army, my next goal is the land of the Giant Bear Kingdom.
Even in countries named after sheep, partridges, hares, eagles and roosters, there are disputes.
I want to use the disputes between them to create opportunities to grow,
I have already thought of a new country name, and it will be called Wild Wolf.
I didn't eat vegetables at the banquet that day. I thought sharpening my teeth was for eating meat.
I heard a "buzz" sound,
Looking out the window of the room where I live, the moon is practicing throwing something,
It is like a full moon, spinning rapidly on the fingertips of the moon, and then thrown out by her,
The sharp edges are deeply embedded in the target,
I think this thing is more practical than the sword on her waist.
While there was no one around her, I left the room and went to the courtyard,
Beautiful, weak, meek women who made the blood in my veins boil,
In the past, women with eyes full of resistance like Moon would only make me feel unhappy.
Me: Do you want to lead the troops to fight in person?
The moon looks back at me,
Her eyes are very precocious, but very pure.
The moon said to me: I want to protect my people and my kingdom. This is my responsibility.
I asked: Where is the man you grew up with?
Moon: He went to learn magic to protect me because there was a witch who wanted to harm me.
I feel like I am an intruder, involved in a very innocent relationship: Are you waiting for him?
The moon looked at me with complicated eyes:
He may have met another woman outside, and we are not engaged.
I understand why the old king was so disappointed:
How about I tell you a story?
The moon didn't agree immediately, but I spoke up myself.
There is a city in my hometown called Troy. It was once besieged by a large army for ten years.
Originally it would not be broken so easily, but there was an enemy who pretended to be abandoned, cried and begged the Trojans, and offered a wooden horse, which had soldiers hidden in its belly. You need to know, People with malicious intentions often pretend to be pitiful. If that person showed mercy to passers-by, he would also die.
Moon shook her head: No, he must be living well elsewhere.
A fire began to burn from the bottom of his heart, and he shouted angrily:
Even if I say a thousand words, you still won't listen. Why do you waste your youth waiting for him?
The moon looked at me with sad eyes: I know, so my father wants to arrange a marriage for me.
I asked: Are you going to obey like this?
Moon asked me: Do you think there is any other way for my daughter’s family?
Me: I can teach you.
The moon asked: What should you teach me?
Me: How to be a queen.
She looked at me confused.
I said to the young princess: You can call me uncle.
Moon: You are not my uncle.
Me: Do you need help?
The moon was silent.
Me: I want to be able to help you. I heard that the prince of the Parthen Kingdom is coming soon.
================================================== =========
An owl landed on the windowsill with a letter at its feet.
To be precise, it was a roaring letter. Gongsei walked over carefully, took down the letter, glanced at the envelope and handed it to Severus.
"It's for you." Gong Saiyi said happily.
Severus did not touch the letter, but used a levitating spell to float it in the air. Gongsei, who wanted to watch the fun, had no choice but to turn around and leave.
It was only after he left that Severus unfolded the snarling letter.
"What did you do to my son?" Narcissa Malfoy's voice floated out from the letter. "Why did he tell me that your troubles had something to do with the Unbreakable Vow?"
"Nice to receive your letter, Sissy." Severus curled his lips and said with a smirk.
"The problems in your marriage have nothing to do with us. It is not easy to marry a famous person like you. Oh, the Potter family, aren't they lucky enough? Not only did they take away the old house of the Black family, I also gained a reputation, look at me again We. I don't want to blame you, Severus, what did Lily bring to you? Your life only started to improve after her death, and what did she help you after marrying James Potter? She doesn't do anything to help you, I've seen a lot of women like her."
Severus glanced back at the door, and both Gongsei and Felix shrank their heads.
"Ever since she and her son appeared, our pure-blood family has been in constant bad luck. You were good before, but everything went wrong after Harry Potter appeared. What did you get in return for your hard work? She repaid you. What are you talking about? To be fair, I think it’s understandable that you still miss Lily after Pomona stayed with you for so long. I used to think Lucius was unforgivable, but now that I have you. I don't think he's that bad anymore. I asked you to protect my son and now you ask him to help. I don't know what trouble you got into. I just know that I won't allow Draco to interact with the sixth year again. I knew I shouldn't have been involved in danger like that in seventh grade, and she started cursing people again, right? Give me a reply, I have the right to know what happened!"
After saying that, the roaring letter closed on its own.
There was a long silence in the living room.
"Do you know what it feels like to murder your own wife?" Garcia's voice sounded from the other door. "Worse than a mangy dog."
Severus looked at the female Muggle.
"My husband received a case in which a banker took out a huge insurance policy on his wife and got into a shipwreck. Later, the insurance company believed that he had deliberately murdered his wife. He was sitting in the court and looked like a mangy dog. Later, We found evidence that his wife's death was indeed an accident. She drank too many cocktails and the railing was not closed properly by someone who was riding a motorboat in the morning, so she fell into the sea from there. "
"I would not murder my wife," Severus said.
"Nothing can change you, right?" Garcia took a sip of champagne. "Death is the beginning of immortality. Lily is already immortal in your heart."
Severus looked at her quietly.
"Why don't you erase my memory?" Garcia asked.
"I need help," Severus said. "I'm a mess right now."
"You expect me to help you?" Garcia asked in disbelief.
"Would you abandon your current life and go to the slums for love?" Severus asked.
Garcia smiled "Are you kidding me?"
"I don't want to go back, if not for compelling reasons." Severus hesitated. "The house I lived in when I was a child made me feel like a failure."
Garcia shook his head and planned to leave.
"She made her choice. It is James's business to protect her family, but James is not as keen on dark magic as I am. He is not capable of protecting his family." Severus said behind Garcia, "She just did it. What I thought was a wise choice.”
"Do you think Lily was unwise not to choose you?" Garcia looked back at Severus.
"Actually I don't care now." Severus said. "She is James Potter's wife. I should not be involved in her family, and she should not miss the time she spent with me."
"I'm glad to hear you say this, Professor Snape." Garcia turned and looked at him. "Love can wash away many sins and make some sins forgivable."
"I thought you admired me at first." Severus smiled. "You said that as if I were a sinner."
"You didn't do that, did you?" Garcia said in an arrogant tone. "No matter how much you love Lily, you didn't destroy her family. Unlike some people who do whatever it takes to achieve their own ends, including destroying other people's families." family."
"You hate those who ruin other people's families?" Severus said in surprise, "Don't you introduce that kind of people to rich people?"
"What kind of artists are those people?" Garcia pouted. "As for the rich people, except for their first wives when they were young, all those who get married later will sign a property agreement. I just want to see them tear off the pretense of a happy family."
"You are a terrible woman," Severus said in mock surprise.
“God will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying, nor pain, for the former things have passed away. This sentence comes from the Book of Revelation in the Bible. I know many people mention the Book of Revelation. The first thing that comes to mind is the end of the world, but have you noticed? This book uses the past tense in many characterizations. In my opinion, this means that the past has passed. If you want to give advice, this is my advice. As long as she is still willing to continue living with you, you can treat it as the past. Nothing happened," Garcia said. "You're still a winner."
"Thank you," Severus said to Garcia.
"I don't need your thanks." Garcia shook his head. "I just hope you can leave my house as soon as possible."
After saying that she left.
