Chapter 459 Michelle Charlotte

After the healing magic was performed, Dorothy blinked and felt a warm current flowing through her body.

"It seems... not cold anymore?"

"Really?" Hearing this, Ivy felt a little relieved.

"Well, it's really not cold anymore!"

Dorothy's spirits lifted, and she seemed to have regained her energy. She smiled at Ivy and said, "Thank you, Sister Ivy!"

"I'm glad you're okay. Go to sleep. Come back to me if you feel uncomfortable."

"Ok!"

Seeing that Dorothy had recovered, the other little girls also breathed a sigh of relief and went back to their rooms to sleep.

Late at night, everything is silent.

Dorothy tossed and turned in her bed, her brows furrowed.

The body and limbs were filled with coldness.

At the same time, in Dorothy's mind, a woman's voice that she was very familiar with kept echoing.

[Dorothy, come back, come back to me...]

[I have already got what I need. Now, it is time to use you...]

[Don't resist, you are a part of me, you... can't escape...]

"what--"

Dorothy suddenly opened her eyes and sat on the bed, breathing heavily, feeling her whole body soaked in cold sweat.

Dorothy touched her arms and her feet, and found that she did not feel cold at all; her body was still warm.

Seeing this, Dorothy couldn't help but murmured: "Is this a nightmare..."

Shaking her head, Dorothy got out of bed and began to change her clothes.

And on Dorothy's back, the scarlet magic circle reappeared, and the flashing red light became even more dazzling.

After changing her clothes, Dorothy, feeling that she had not slept well the night before, drowsily put her little hand to her mouth and opened it.

"Haah~"

Michelle yawned as he walked along the streets of Faro in the early morning, taking in the situation in Faro.

Although the people of Faro City had been slaughtered before, after Ryan led 70,000 people here, life gradually came back to this place.

At noon today, the knights sent from the imperial capital will arrive, and then these people will be taken to the imperial capital to make new arrangements.

"Captain Mitchell, good morning!"

Several patrolling knights passed by Michel and saluted him.

Mitchell nodded slightly: "Where is Captain Ryan now?"

"Report, on the city wall!"

"it is good."

On the wall of Faro City, Ryan stood in black armor. The sun rose slowly behind him, and the morning light shone on Ryan's cloak with gold patterns.

"Captain Ryan, you are here!"

Mitchell climbed up the city wall and laughed at Ryan, as if they had met by chance.

Ryan turned his head and saw Mitchell in bandages. He said calmly, "Why are you climbing the wall so early in the morning instead of taking a good rest?"

"Only patients need to exercise well so that they can recover faster."

Mitchell smiled and stood beside Ryan, pretending to ask casually: "Captain Ryan, your swordsmanship is really superb. You can even fight with that sword ghost. If it were me, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get through with a single move."

"My adoptive father laid the foundation for my swordsmanship. Later, I basically learned it on my own."

Although Ryan's voice was cold, he still chatted with Mitchell without any impatience.

Because Ryan saw Mitchell fighting bloody battles on the city wall yesterday.

"Haha... Captain Ryan, was it also your adoptive father's idea for you to join the Knights?"

"Yes."

Ryan nodded: "He adopted me and taught me swordsmanship. It seems that his purpose was to send me to the Knights. This made me think that I was being treated as a tool at first."

"Um... Well, did he say which knight order he wanted you to join?"

"Brilliance."

Ryan glanced at Mitchell and said, "He really wanted me to join the Radiant Knights, but when I joined the Dark Eclipse, he didn't say much and was very supportive."

When Ryan went back to see old Lamb for the last time and saw the relieved look in Lamb's eyes before he died, he felt for the first time what it was like to be treated as Lamb's adopted son.

Before this, Lamb was just an old man who raised Ryan.

Ryan also knew that Lamb had his own purposes in raising him and sending him into the Knights Templar.

However, as time went by, Lamb's purpose gradually disappeared.

There were several times when Lamb sent Ryan letters in which he implicitly mentioned several times that he wanted Ryan to retire and come back to be with him.

But Ryan didn't see the hidden message at that time, and never replied to Lamb's letter.

Mitchell was silent for a long time before continuing, "Since he wants you to join Glory so much, he must know a lot about Glory, right? What did he mention about Glory? Did he mention me?"

"He didn't mention you."

Ryan's first words dimmed Mitchell's expression a little, but Ryan continued: "But he said that the Glorious Knights are the most righteous and noble knights in Hedley. It is an honor to join this knight order."

These words made Michelle's eyes light up instantly, but soon, Michelle lowered his head in shame.

Before this, Mitchell had already inquired about the reasons why Ryan was forced out of the Glorious Reserve.

Justice? Noble? These two words came out of Ryan's mouth, like a slap in his face.

"Then...is your adoptive father okay now?"

"He passed away." Ryan said calmly, "Just last year."

Mitchell's body trembled, his head lowered even deeper, and his voice became hoarse: "Go, last year, please...please accept my condolences..."

"Perhaps I should be the one to tell you this."

Ryan shook his head and said, "His tombstone is in the cemetery behind the Ate City Cathedral. If you have time, you can go and see him."

Hearing this, Mitchell looked up in astonishment. Ryan then saw that the middle-aged man's eyes were red, as if he would cry at any time:

"Captain Ryan, you..."

"After seeing you, I vaguely realized that you and my adoptive father were inextricably linked, so I specifically asked someone for your last name last night."

Ryan looked at Mitchell and said word by word: "Mitchell Charlotte, you are old Lamb's biological son, right?"

Mitchell opened his mouth, his expression becoming increasingly gloomy, and finally he turned around shakily and sat down on the top of the city wall:

"You are very strong, terrifyingly strong, stronger than anyone I have ever seen. My father specially asked you to join the Radiant Knights, perhaps... just to have you assist me."

As he spoke, the man with red eyes grabbed his hair:

"But...but I failed to live up to his kindness..." (Fox Special, Potato Beef Brisket)
