8days ago Xuanhuan Novels 9
When Anna opened her eyes, there were fiery red everywhere, and the scorching air hit her face, making her skin feel painful.

flame.

There were flames everywhere, and thick smoke rolled through the underside of the shed, making people breathless.

There were crying sounds, or just hallucinations, and wood crackled under the licking of flames, and from time to time, Mars and burning broken wood fell from above.

She climbed down the haystack and tried to walk two steps towards the inner room, and was soon pushed back by the heat wave.

In the end, she could only roll and crawl and escape from the wooden house, watching the house be consumed by a raging fire.

Neighbors also surrounded them and some people began to help put out the fire, but the nearest source of water was Chishui River outside the town. The few cans of water that they finally got were useless in the face of the fire.

After several trips, Anna finally saw her father.

He had just rushed back from the mine, wearing a dirty coat and a gray and black dust on his face. He was standing next to the burned wooden house with a blank look on his face.

As if she saw the backbone, she could no longer suppress the fear and panic in her heart. Tears rolled down like beads, and she ran to her father crying and hugged him tightly.

However, my father did not comfort her as much as she hoped.

Where is your mother?He grabbed her shoulder, and the force was so strong that she screamed out in pain, and your brother!

Anna shook her head, but she didn't expect that what followed would be a slap in the face.

You actually escaped alone!Why not save them?

Damn, how can you just focus on yourself?

Anna sat up from the bed, gasping for breath, and the scolding seemed to be still echoing in her ears, which had not dissipated for a long time.

It's this dream again.

She picked up the cup at the head of the bed and drank the cold water in one go. It took a while before she recovered.

Every early month, Anna would dream of this scene, just like someone in her mind reminding her, she turned her head and looked at the desk. Today was the end of the first weekend of summer, and it was also the day when the Witch Alliance paid the salary.

She put on her clothes, washed up briefly, then walked out of the castle and headed to the Witch Building in the backyard.

Sister Anna!As soon as I saw her, the bell immediately burst into laughter. You came so early!

Good morning, Wendy laughed softly, The weather looks good today, are you going to North Po Hill later?

Anna... Sir, the two former classmates also hurriedly bowed and said.

Just call me Anna as usual.She waved her hand and sat at the long table, and hesitated. I had something else to do and I would go there in the afternoon.

oh?That was really rare. Wendy showed an interesting expression. Could it be that she was with His Majesty Roland...

Go shopping!The bell shouted.

Pearl and Gray Rabbit on the side couldn't help laughing.

Anna shook her head, but didn't continue.

Wendy did not ask, but took out an envelope from the drawer and handed it to her. The salary this month was two golden dragons.

Thanks.

The witches don’t need to prepare their own food, clothing, housing and transportation. Even luxury goods sold in the convenience market will basically be tried first. Even if they want more, it will not be a problem. Therefore, most people think that salary is of no use and do not understand why His Majesty insists on doing this.

Anna could roughly guess Roland's intention, and this move invisibly helped her.

Returning to the castle hall with the paycheck, Chief Knight Catlanis was already waiting there.

Miss Anna, he stood up and asked, "Is it the same as usual?"

Well, she took out a golden dragon from the envelope and handed it to the knight, as usual.

……

When the Border Town was renovated, all the indigenous people were assigned a house, and Anna's father was no exception.

After he sold Anna to the church for twenty-five golden dragons, Anna never had any social interactions with him again.

From that moment on, he was no longer her father.

But there are some things she can't completely stay out of.

For example, this golden dragon is used as a living expenses.

Perhaps like most poor people who suddenly gained a fortune, he did not keep the money for too long, gambling, fraud and theft made him fall into a state of poverty in just half a year. At that time, Anna had not yet made her famous, but she was recognized by some indigenous people when she used fire to seal the gap in the city wall. He had tried to entrust her neighbors to find her daughter, but was rejected by her neighbors and was ridiculed.

Later, the incident reached Carter, who was responsible for forming the militia, and Carter revealed it to Anna.

From then on, she knew that something had to be done to get her father who had betrayed her to hide his voice.

She didn't want the other party to cause trouble to Roland.

The two came to a quiet community east of the city and climbed to the second floor of the building.

Carter turned around, Miss Anna, just wait for me here.

Please trouble you.

No, it's just a slight effort.He walked to a door and slapped the door panel hard.

After a while, the door creaked open, Ah... It turned out to be the Knight, I...

Why did the door open so long? Are you deaf?Carter scolded, "Go aside and don't block the door."

Yes, yes...

Maybe that's fine.

Anna leaned against the wall of the aisle and sighed softly.

To be honest, she didn't want to pay attention to this former father at all, but she knew that putting it aside would only make the situation worse.

Moreover, she cannot come forward in person, otherwise paranoidness and inability to see the situation will make the other party habitually show off his father's majesty, which will not be deterred.

Instead of begging him, it is better to let him realize that the status of the two is like a world of difference.

As the chief knight known to the people in the border area, Carter is already an amazing noble in the eyes of ordinary people. He regards this golden dragon as a closure fee and some stern warnings, which should prevent him from making any more public. His Majesty does not need to bear another burden for this.

Anna didn't understand the relationship between this before.

Since being arrested and imprisoned, she has lost interest in everything and the world has completely turned into a dead gray. It was not until Roland rescued her that she saw a different color from the past.

After living in the castle for a while, Anna gradually understood the complex relationship between people and gained a new understanding of her father's anger.

But she didn't like these twisted things at all.

Only when she is with Roland can she truly relax.

There are also books that record wonderful knowledge that seem complicated and difficult to understand, but after deep contact, you will find that their relationship is so simple and direct, and will never change due to changes in interests or **.

The way to reveal the world's appearance is so clean and concise, then the world should have been like this.

The door opened again, and with a wave of pleasing and offering voices, Carter returned to her and stroked his chest, Miss Anna, it was done.

Well, after completing this incident, Anna felt much more relaxed, don't tell Your Majesty.

Of course...I understand.

She nodded, then turned around and walked downstairs.

It is true that she cannot get rid of these disgusting feelings, but with His Majesty Roland, there will always be more and more beautiful things. She can't wait to go to Beipo Mountain and continue her research work.

That's where she likes.
