Chapter 463: Memories of the Shadow
Roger stood around the corner of the hallway.
When he came back to his senses, he found that he was no longer lying on the grass, but standing at a corner at the end of the hallway.
The woman beside her also disappeared, but the fragrance of her body still seemed to linger in the air.
The moon hung high in the dark sky, and the moonlight reflected in the hallway and on him through the glazed windows overhead.
It was all too familiar to him, the wall behind him, the place where Anna had discovered the Door of Shadows.
There were cacophony voices in my ears, the shouts of medical staff, the smell of disinfectant water, and the breath carried by countless female nurses as they came in and out.
None of this escaped Roger's perception.
"Anna turned out to be Grimm's daughter!"
Roger didn't know exactly how everything had turned out, but he was probably going through a conversation that Grimm and Anna's mother had had experienced many years ago.
Her mother was supposed to be just an ordinary person.
Roger didn't know that Green was an ordinary person at that time. Or a transcendent who has already made a name for himself.
If it was the former, then how did he rise from nothing in such a short period of time and become the head of the Knights of the Round Table?
And if it is the latter, as a transcendent being, they may be infatuated with the flesh of an ordinary woman and have a relationship with it, but the chances of being able to enter into a marriage contract and give birth to an heir are simply pitiful.
So what was the purpose of Green at that time, to welcome Anna's mother and have a child of his own.
In a sense, Roger is more inclined to the latter.
In previous exchanges, Green's determination of the child's gender has been illustrative.
He knows.
Or, he was able to know.
Even if he didn't control the body, Roger could feel the indifference shown by the body, and he stood in the corner, his face sad and joyless.
Listening, feeling his wife's birth.
The pain and anxiety could not be found in him, and the cry at the beginning of the child's birth did not leave a ripple in his heart.
This is a ruthless guy.
"Sir, Mr. Green!"
"Congratulations, you're already a father!"
A chubby female nurse rushed from the room with a swaddling baby in her arms, revealing half of the child's cheeks.
"It's a girl, pretty like her mother."
Roger was eager to step forward and take a look at Anna as a baby, but his current body was Grimm.
Green didn't move, and even the expression on his face didn't change in any way.
"No need to come here, just stand there."
He looked at the baby in the nurse's arms, and for the first time a smile appeared on his face.
"Good, good."
"Take her down."
"Also, please help me inform the kitchen."
Green said suddenly.
"I'm hungry right now and want to eat something."
The chubby female nurse's eyes widened, she had heard some pregnant women mention similar requests, but it was the first time that a man had made such a request.
"What is he going to do?"
Roger had a bad feeling in his heart, and he even felt that it might be a mistake to help Anna find the rest of her body.
There are memories that shouldn't be remembered.
Green's initial indifference, and the excitement he felt when he saw Anna were so anomalous, and even more unusual was his rise to prominence.
Roger had looked up about Green in the library management of the Knights of the Round Table in Dublin.
But a lot of the information looks like legends, and there are paradoxes between them.
It's really strange that a transcendent who is still alive can't find information about him in the data, even the most basic part.
This person seems to appear out of thin air, with no growth trajectory, and suddenly reaches a height that many people find difficult to reach in their lifetime.
Of course, there were many people who wanted to study the secrets behind Green's growth.
But these people, hehe......
When the time came, Roger found that he was no longer anyone, as if he had become an entire manor, and every corner of the gloom was a part of his body.
Yes, these memories do not belong to any one person, but to every shadow that has ever existed in this manor.
He saw a little girl get up from her sleep in a daze, and then sleepwalked downstairs, the whole time, and Green who was sleeping in another room did not react.
The girl made her way to the first floor and through the end of the hallway, where a dark door appeared in the otherwise empty wall.
There was darkness surging behind the door, and a voice urging, "Open it." ”
"You can't escape, Green."
"Promises come at a cost."
In a daze, Anna pushed the door open, the dark energy enveloping her, and she trembled and stepped forward with her right leg.
"Who's behind the door?"
"The other party apparently tracked Green's location through the shadow world and launched a retaliation."
While thinking about the problem, Roger did not notice that the scenery around him had changed, the time should be early in the morning, and there were servants adding food to the long table one after another.
A bacon meatloaf, a glass of milk, cheese slathered with blueberry sauce and a sheet of crepes.
Green ate his breakfast quietly, and beside him sat a dark-haired woman with a somewhat round face, her eyebrows were still thin, and her eyes were large and round, but they were less innocent and lively than they had been.
The mural on the wall depicts the heirs of the family for generations, and in the most conspicuous position is a family portrait of a family of three.
When he was young, Green was tall and handsome, and the women around him were also beautiful and moving, and of course, the most important thing was a little girl sitting in a chair between the two.
Anna.
Although it was only a glimpse of the afterglow, Roger noticed that Anna was sitting in a chair in the portrait, with a blooming daffodil in front of her blocking part of her body.
One right leg.
"Miss Lietta, Miss Anna is losing her temper again......"
A servant hurried down from the stairs, and the woman sitting next to Green sighed and put down the food in her hand, "I'll go see her." ”
Green kept eating at a monotonous pace throughout, not like he was eating, like he was completing some kind of task.
"Anna's right leg?!"
"What's going on in this house, or rather, what did Green do?"
Roger was so frightened that he didn't even dare to think further, if one of his inferences was correct, the result would be too cruel for Anna.
Time passed slowly, everything in this house was still playing out, and for the next period of time, Anna did not show any physical disability.
Her missing right leg seemed like an accident, and the woman was aging, but Green still maintained her original vitality.
At night, the maid finished the story sleepily, then covered Anna with the quilt and left the room lightly.
Although Anna was young in her sleep, she had already shown the potential of a beauty, and because of the temperature, her face was slightly red, like two seductive apples.
The whole manor fell silent, the lights flickered, and a figure suddenly appeared in the room, and he looked at Anna in comfort, his face could not hide the murderous intent.
"I've been gone for so long, why are you still following me?"
"I thought this child was an accidental gift, but in the end, she turned into my nightmare!"
"You are obviously my child, why do you look exactly like that woman!"
The man raised his weapon and left behind a cold word.
"Nope! You're not Anna! ”
"You're the night!"
