Ritter, who was in so much pain that he didn't even want to say anything, rolled his eyes at Morgan, who was using his white underwear as a towel. He slowly raised his right hand and pointed at his lower body, then pointed at the door. He used this method to tell Morgan that he had been suffocated for waking up so quickly.
Morgan, who didn't understand what Ritter meant at first, only understood when he sat up and repeated himself. Thus, Morgan, who didn't think that Ritter could go to the toilet by himself, was about to call the guards to help him when he heard Ritter say in a weak voice,"If you want to ask…the guards to help me, you might as well…let them…burn me to death. Just now…they…probably…didn't…notice…what…color…my…eyes…were…but…this…doesn't mean…they…didn't…notice…this…when…they…helped me…to…the…toilet…Of course, what I meant was…not…for you to help me there, but…for you to tell me…where the toilet is, and I…will go there myself.”
After saying that, Ritter frowned and stood up. At the same time, he pressed his left hand on his chest near his heart, trying to reduce the pain in this way.
"No matter how I look at it, you don't look like you can go to the toilet on your own... Son... Alright, go out and turn left to the end, then turn right to the end, and the room you're facing is the toilet.”
Ritter's words,'Either you help me, or I'll go by myself,' made Morgan give up on the idea of asking the guards to help him, and he told them the location of the toilet.
After obtaining this, Ritter walked out of Morgan's boudoir like an old man in his twilight years."This toilet…dare to build…a little further…?!”
Ritter complained when he saw that the toilet was at least 100 yards away from him.
However, despite complaining, Ritter didn't choose to stop and find a random place to solve his problem. He didn't choose to take a shortcut that could save time and energy, because he had already felt that this courtyard was a little strange when he ran out of Morgan's boudoir to find the guards. Now, he felt even more so.
In fact, it was normal for Ritter to feel this way. The reason was simple. The guards were all concentrated on the right side, which was the side near the entrance of the courtyard. Even Morgan's boudoir door, which should have been guarded by guards, was not guarded.
The more Ritter thought about it, the more he felt strange. After ten minutes or so, he finished solving his problem in Morgan's toilet, which was filled with a few small bags that emitted a floral fragrance. He stood on a small path paved with white stones that he had never seen before. He looked at the strangest dead tree rooted in the middle of the courtyard."Morgan is…in the middle of this courtyard full of blooming flowers…and green grass…leaving such…a…withered tree…what…wait! I seem to have seen…this layout somewhere before.”
After saying that, Ritter began to seriously recall the places he had been to and the things he had seen. He didn't notice that the ground beside the fist-sized white stone path was moving, nor did he notice Morgan, who was worried that he would faint in the toilet or encounter some danger after not returning for so long.
Ritter didn't notice that the ground around him was moving, but Morgan, who was looking for him, noticed it. However, what made Morgan, who was rushing over with the corner of her skirt, stop was that she saw Ritter, whose feet were entangled by the roots that had drilled out of the ground, calmly bend down and dig out two white stones from the path under his feet. He rubbed them against the roots that were entangled with his feet."I knew it... there were no... guards in the courtyard. There must be... a problem! But I didn't…think of this…The problem is life and death! Morgan, that bitch... is really... too crazy! In his own courtyard…not only did he do this, he even raised such a huge tree demon!”
After saying that, Ritter looked at the place where the roots that had wrapped around his feet had retracted and sighed with lingering fear."Phew ~ Fortunately, I didn't…struggle just now. Otherwise…in my current state, even if I wasn't pulled down, I would still be hanging there like…a salted fish.”
The reason why Litte was so calm was not only because this was not the first time he had been attacked by the tree demons, but also because he was brave and knew how to avoid being quickly pulled into the ground by the tree demons.
"But then again…speaking of which, how did this thing appear in the…palace? Did Morgan…that b * tch send someone…to poach him from somewhere else? It can't be, right?"
As he spoke, Litte, who was holding the two white stones, walked forward unsteadily. He didn't want to observe the tree demon at a close distance. He didn't want to, and he couldn't go back the way he came. This was because doing so was equivalent to telling the tree demon that he was afraid.
Although Morgan was curious about how Ritter knew about this, she was more concerned about what Ritter had just said, especially about the'd * mn woman'. For this reason, she ignored the gaping mouths and widened her eyes as she watched her guard stride over to Ritter's side and call him 'unruly man'.
Morgan's scream was not a big deal. What was important was that Litte, who had been focusing on the Tree Demon to reduce the pain, was so frightened by her scream that he jumped up. This caused the Tree Demon to instantly launch an all-round attack when it felt the vibration and the heartbeat of Litte through its roots that covered the entire garden.
As for the two white stones in Ritter's hands, the tree demon ignored them. The reason was that the tree demon knew its prey was afraid.
However, what shocked Ritter, who was tied up by the Tree Demon's roots, was that Morgan stomped his feet and let go of the Tree Demon, who had ignored the two white stones in his hand and was about to be pulled into the ground to become a dry corpse. The speed was even faster than the Tree Demon taking back the roots that he had rubbed against with the two white stones.
Due to the Tree Demon's speed of retracting its roots, Litte, who lost his balance and fell to the ground, was about to ask Morgan if he was human when she kicked him in the leg."Oh…you stinky woman…why did you kick me? I didn't…mess with you, and I didn't do…Huh? Who is this damned woman? I know…how to treat…Fu Shuyao…is it related to that…dead woman? Aren't you…talking nonsense? Of course it's related, otherwise I would have been done for…long before you…tricked me…wait! Let me explain…first!"
Ritter didn't understand why Morgan asked him that question at first, but when she pulled out the ruby dagger from her skirt, he understood what she meant. Therefore, Ritter didn't want to be stabbed to death by her, so he raised his hand and gestured for her to stop.
"Explain yourself. If you don't explain yourself well, this prince will cut your throat and give you to it as a snack!”
Morgan was serious. As long as Ritter didn't give him a reasonable explanation that wouldn't make him angry, she would make Ritter sleep forever.
Facing Morgan, Ritter coughed twice and spat out the thing stuck in his windpipe. He wiped his mouth with the hand that made a stop gesture to her."Dead woman is literally a dead woman, not a living woman, nor is it a nickname I gave to a woman. If you still don't understand, then you can treat the dead woman as a dead person. Besides, I learned how to deal with the tree demon when I went to the tomb of the dead woman to get the gold coins. The tuition fee was almost eaten by the tree demon. By the way, this was either ten or nine years ago.”
After spitting out the thing stuck in his windpipe, which was the blood, Ritter's speech was no longer intermittent. He gave this explanation that sounded a little like bragging. The reason was that ten or nine years ago, Ritter was a little kid who was no older than ten years old, and such a little kid could not escape from the roots of the tree demon.
Although Morgan liked Ritter very much and understood his strength through his battle with Zach and the other lowly people, Morgan couldn't believe that he could escape from the roots of the Tree Demon ten or nine years ago.
But just as Morgan was about to say something, Ritter spoke first." The damned woman is different from you, a crazy woman. She didn't set up a trap where death and life were both death. Death was death, and life was life. That was why I, who happened to be in the middle of death and life, was able to grab a stone that was about the same size and color as this one and save my life when my feet were entangled by the tree demon's roots.”
Due to what Morgan had done to him, Ritter had chosen to call her a " stinky woman." Even though others would think that this was courting death, Ritter didn't think so. As for the reason, Ritter could only say that it was his intuition.
After hearing Ritter's words, Morgan stared at his calm expression for a while before kicking his leg again."Stupid peasant, if you dare to call this prince 'stinky woman', this prince will kill you! Also, does that damned woman have blonde hair that is longer than mine?”
Morgan didn't understand why she asked this question, but Ritter, who had started to recall things related to that dead woman, was embarrassed. Ritter recalled that the dead woman not only had blonde hair, but also looked similar to Morgan. There were also many gold coins with King Yosef's portrait in the tomb.
All of this was enough to prove one thing. Even if that beautiful woman wasn't Morgan's biological mother, she was still related to Morgan by blood.
"I…I…Why am I so unlucky!”
Rittery had wanted to say 'I forgot,' but Morgan had used his dagger to push it back. After thinking about it for a while, he used an extremely resentful tone to say this sentence. At first glance, it sounded unrelated to Morgan's question, but after thinking about it carefully, one would realize that it was not only related, but also very related. The reason was that Rittery was indirectly answering the questions that Morgan had asked and the questions that he hadn't asked…
