When Abel supported the bar with his hand, Lorna thought that he was going to come out to beat someone, and she was ready to fight, but the scene in front of her made her completely frightened.

Just now, Abel was not "sitting" behind the bar at all, but lying on a recliner. Why? The reason is simple, he doesn't have the lower half of his body ...

Abel had a very smooth cut on his waist, only the upper half of his body remained, the lower half of his body was gone, the incision in his abdomen was completely scarred, and several holes were surgically chiseled with hoses to help drain.

The hoses were connected to the bedpan placed under Abel's body, and occasionally you could see what you had just eaten digesting into feces and urine flowing into the basin.

It's hard to imagine that a person can live tenaciously in this way.

Able supported the upper half of his body with one arm, patted his stomach lightly with the other hand, touched the hoses and quipped: "During the Laurel War, I served in the "Hessian Legion" death squad - the kind of death squad you want to go to. ”

"Compared with other brothers, I am considered to be fateful, let people cut like this, and was saved by the doctor, but the price is that I have to live with these pipes for the rest of my life, I live alive, but I live without people and ghosts."

"What's the matter, do you still think it's scary to be dead than to be alive?"

Lorna swallowed her throat unconsciously, but she didn't admit defeat in her heart, and her mouth was still stiff: "You became like this... It must be because you're too weak! If you are strong enough, you will never fall into this fate! ”

Abel grinned and pointed to the "Dragon Roar" epaulette on Lorna's shoulder: "I was the 5th sequence "Blazing" back then, 2 sequences higher than you are now. ”

Lorna's mouth was completely choked by this sentence, and she couldn't say anything.

Abel looked Lorna up and down, and teased playfully: "Little girl, she looks so beautiful, has a solid family background, and has a good figure, she usually has a lot of suitors, right?" You should be the kind of girl who is arrogant and looks down on anyone. ”

"However, if you live like me one day, your body is only half left, you can't take care of yourself after eating, drinking, and Lazar, and you wake up on the bed full of feces and urine. Relatives think you're a wreck, don't want to take care of you anymore, and leave you in the cold to die. The people who used to grovel to pursue you now look down on you and disdain you when they chase you. Do you still want to be a death squad? Do you still dare to be a death squad? ”

"What do you think war is? A game of playing house? Those who do not know how to fear war will be wounded by war, and I hope you will understand this truth, which we all paid for with our lives and blood. ”

Lorna looked up blankly at the smiling drinkers, who had just been cursing and not looking closely, until she looked closely now, and found that some of them had no palms, only bare wrist handles, and some of their legs had been surgically amputated and replaced with wooden prostheses.

People like those who are blind in one eye and missing one ear are considered very lucky, and more of them are like Abel, who is completely limb and severely disabled, and can barely survive on the life-sustaining equipment developed by alchemists.

Facing the gaze of the wine men, Lorna only felt a heavy pressure rushing over her face, and her heart was like countless ants gnawing at her, and she no longer dared to look directly at them, and unconsciously lowered her head.

Dinisha walked to the bar, carried Abel back to the chaise longue, helped him cover the blanket, and said to Lorna lightly, "See? All of them were veterans of the Laurel War, and each of them had escaped from death. ”

"They gave everything they had for the kingdom, and some of them didn't want to be a burden to their families and left alone. Some were abandoned by their wives and children, and lived a lonely life. There are also people like Old Abel, all their relatives died tragically in the war, and they are only left with a broken body, except for their comrades-in-arms who experienced the war together, there is nothing else. ”

"These people have dedicated everything they can give, no one is worse than you, they are just old and helpless, and if they gather here to drink with each other, they will be scolded by you. How? When you become a prince, now you are superior to others, and you think you are amazing, don't you? ”

Lorna lowered her eyes, pursed her lips tightly, and said nothing.

Without warning, Dinisha, who had always been hippie and smiling, suddenly turned cold and scolded: "Apologize to them!" ”

Lorna's fists clenched, stretched white from too hard, and her body trembled from time to time, as if she was enduring an impulsive rage.

Although the veterans here have never seen Lorna, after all, they are the daughter of the "left hand of the king" Sting, the daughter of the Regnome family, and they have all heard of it, and they all know that this girl is a short-tempered, hot-blooded and aggressive, and she will fight for everything and never admit defeat.

Let a person with this temper soften in public and apologize in a low voice, which is more uncomfortable than killing her.

Abel saw that Lorna's face was red and white when he was reprimanded, and his teeth were clenched, and he didn't want to make things too stiff, so he took the initiative to make a round: "Forget it, Di, people didn't mean it, what do you care about with a child?" ”

"Kids?" Denisha walked up to Lorna, reached out and pinched her cheek hard, lifted her face up, forced her to look at her, and said coldly, "16 years old, still called a child?" You are now an adult, enjoying all your civil rights, but at the same time being responsible for your words and actions, which is the responsibility of an adult, and no one will be as accustomed to your temper as you were when you were a child. ”

"Whatever you say or do wrong, don't you count it in your heart? Still gritting his teeth here, stubborn and unconvinced, what? If you do something wrong, dare you do it or not? ”

Since she was a child, Lorna was only beaten and scolded by her father Sting, and every time she was scolded and wronged, she went to Dinisha to complain, and Denisha would always comfort her with a hippie smile and play with her to make her mood better.

Lorna has known Denisha for 12 years, and has become accustomed to her smile and care, and today is the first time she has been scolded like an elder treats a junior.

Lorna's lower lip was about to be bitten by herself, her tight fists kept clicking, and her nails sank into her palms, as if she was in a violent mental struggle.

Denisha looked directly into Lorna's eyes, and her tone was extremely stern, and there was no doubt: "Apologize, right away, otherwise don't come to see me in the future." ”

This sentence was like a nail, completely chiseling through Lorna's heart defense, her body trembled unconsciously, her fist slowly loosened, the blood in her palm fell to the floor, and the pupils that were originally full of stubbornness and disbelief lost their luster and became a little sluggish.

I don't know how long later, under the gaze of everyone, Lorna slowly bent down, first bowed to Abel, the waist was almost bent to a humble 90 degrees, and then bowed to the veterans in other directions in the same posture, she lowered her head and lowered her eyes, like a puppy who made a mistake, and the weak mosquito chirping voice could not hide the guilt: "Uncles and uncles... I'm sorry... I just said something very excessive to you... I hope you'll forgive me... I'm sorry..."

The veterans were amazed, and according to what they had heard about Lorna, it was impossible to apologize, and most of them would lose their temper or slam the door and leave.

I didn't expect this girl to listen to Denisha so much, and she was trained to be obedient, I really didn't expect it.
