Redeem The Villain [Quick Travel] Chapter 53
byChapter 53 Tentacle monster 17 has grown up~
A few months after the celebration, autumn ushered in Fisli, and beautiful red maple leaves fell everywhere in the sky in Fisli, even in the palace.
“Hello! Stop it… Phew.”
There was a breathless sound, and the servants passing by the second-floor kitchen building all looked towards the source of the sound, and lost interest when they saw those familiar figures.
Plop——
Xibai sat down in the garden. The hair on his forehead was messy and soaked with sweat and stuck to his skin. His hands were tiredly punched on the ground, and his chest was heaving violently, as if he had just experienced a fight.
He gasped: “Huhu, Your Highness, don’t run away.”
In the flower bed not far in front of him, he saw a huge black and yellow dog running like a carnival, but every once in a while he would stop and rest for a few seconds before running again.
Upon closer inspection, I realized that it was not a big black and yellow dog.
It’s because it actually carries an equally huge black octopus on its body.
Merik lay on Haru’s body, feeling the joy of running at top speed.
Haru’s pink tongue swung in the air and was about to hit it in the next second. Almost instantly, Merik reacted very quickly to avoid the tongue full of saliva, and then a tentacle patted Haru’s body: “Haru, go back.”
“Woof woof!” Haru immediately turned around from a corner.
The dog was extremely fast, and Merik’s whole body bumped up and down with Halu’s movements, until the moment he turned around, his body was thrown into the air.
Merik Yang was in the air, almost about to be thrown out, when he saw two black and pink tentacles tightly grasping a few strands of yellow hair.
Xibai was immediately frightened when he saw this scene. It wasn’t until Merik firmly pressed back against Haru’s body that he breathed a sigh of relief.
“Woof woof woof!” Haru excitedly ran to Xibai, swung his big fluffy tail, and licked his face crazily with his wet tongue. Merik immediately jumped down and stayed away from Haru’s saliva.
While pushing back Haru, who was much taller than him, Xibai said to Merik: “Your Highness, you…you can’t ride Haru anymore. Have you forgotten how angry His Highness Ewell was the last time he was injured?”
Mentioning Ewell, Merik lowered his head in disappointment.Of course it remembered that that was the first time Ewell scolded it.
After the celebration, Ewell was so busy that he could only return to the palace late at night almost every day.
Suddenly one day a human who claimed to be the prince of a neighboring country suddenly appeared in the garden near the small building. Although it did not understand the twists and turns, it also knew that the man looked at it in a strange way.Then he was so frightened that he suddenly let go of his hand, causing him to be thrown away.
He never saw the human again.
But because of this incident, both it and Xibai were punished. It was said that Haru didn’t eat bones for a month because of this. It later secretly hid the bones to compensate Haru, but Haru had been sent out of the palace to study long ago, and the bones stinked.
Halu finally came back today. He couldn’t hold back and climbed up.
The tentacle monster in front of him dropped his little head in despair. Xibai sighed and said, “Your Highness, you have grown up, and Halu can hardly carry you anymore.”
Merik looked at Halu who was breathing loudly beside him. He didn’t know when he got up, but it was almost level with Halu who was squatting on the ground.
In just a few months, it not only learned all the languages on the continent of Croleta, but also grew a lot taller.
“What are you doing?”
A familiar voice sounded from behind, and Merik’s dim eyes instantly lit up, and he quickly turned around and ran towards the voice.
It’s Ewell.
“Are you done?” Merik clung to Ewell’s waist and looked up at him with twinkling eyes.
Ewell smiled and said: “I heard that you were running outside the chef’s building again, causing the chefs to not dare to open the window.”
Merik turned and looked at the two-story building not far away. Several chefs at the doors and windows of the building immediately averted their eyes.It looked back at Ewell and said, “I was too bored, and I came here because Haru couldn’t leave the small building. It’s Merik’s fault.”
Ewell was too busy, and no one in the palace dared to play with him except Haru and Xibai.
“How long has it been since Haru came back?” Ewell looked at the chef.
“Go back to Your Highness, Haru, I just came back less than an hour ago.” The head chef lowered his head with a guilty conscience. He always squeezes time every day to ask for instructions to take Haru back early in the morning. How could His Highness not know…
Ewell turned to Merik and said, “It’s only been an hour since it came back, and you’re riding it and running again?”
Meeting those purple eyes, Merrick burst into tears.
Ewell: “…”
He seems to be the bad guy.
The whole atmosphere froze for a few seconds.
“Actually, Hal has been very well-behaved since he came back.” The head chef stepped forward and laughed, secretly observed Evel’s expression, and found that he was not angry, so he made gestures according to the dog trainer’s instructions: “Haru, come here, sit down, lie down, pretend to be dead…”
The big dog kept changing its posture in front of several people as instructed, but its energetic big tail continued to sweep the ground.
“Haru is so smart.” The head chef excitedly took out a big bone and threw it to Haru.
A crisp crunching sound suddenly sounded.
Merik had already seen the results of Haru’s study, so he was not curious. Instead, he looked at Ewell pitifully and blinked.
In just half a year, the small tentacles that could be held in one hand have now grown to half a man’s height, and it won’t even take long for them to surpass his height.
Ever since he got that letter, he hadn’t spent any time with Merrick, and he even forgot the last time he held him.
Evel’s eyes were deep, his warm hands held Merik in his arms, and his voice was clear and gentle: “I’ve been too busy recently, and I will stay with you well in the next period of time.”
Merik was still immersed in the daze of being picked up. When he heard the voice, he raised his eyes in surprise and responded as if he didn’t dare to imagine: “Really?”
Although he returned to the palace to rest every day, and late at night, he could still see Merik lying on the bed with his arms stretched out, but it was indeed the first time in several months to hold him in his arms. He did not expect that the tentacle monster in his arms would look like this.
I almost didn’t hug him…
Ewell held it and returned to the palace: “Of course, is there somewhere Merik wants to go?”
His matter has been almost settled. Next, he only needs the Second Knights far away in Farollon to find useful letters. If there is no way to get them, he still needs to go there in person.
“There is no place I want to go, I just want to be with Ewell.”
Ewell looked down at it and smiled softly: “Okay.”
Along the way, Merik’s eyes were worried, and he would peek at Ewell every now and then.
Until he was watched for the fourth time, Ewell could no longer pretend to be ignorant and sighed in his heart: “Are you worried that I can’t hold you?”
Merik was indeed worried. Two months ago, Xibai fell to the ground after walking a few steps with him and could not stand up.Ewell is so busy every day, what if he gets exhausted?It murmured in a low voice: “I’m afraid you’ll be tired. You’re very busy and tired, and I don’t want to make it harder for you.”
He smiled softly: “I don’t know who you are in the future, but now, you can’t tire me out yet.”
Xibai raised his finger and waved it in front of it and said: “Your Highness, of course I am not strong enough to hold you, but Your Highness is the most powerful knight. Very few knights can even swing His Highness’s sword. What’s more, His Highness swings the sword for a long time every morning, so you don’t have to worry.”
Merik tilted his head in confusion: “Why haven’t I seen Evel wield a sword?”
“Pfft, hahaha.” Xibai couldn’t help laughing: “Your Highness, you used to sleep until I called you to wake up every day, but now…”
He paused for a moment, looked pained for a moment, and then said: “Anyway, when you wake up, His Highness has already gone to the main hall to handle official business. Of course you can’t see it.”
Ewell’s eyes dimmed, and when he saw a touch of blue on Merik’s dark little face, he comforted him softly: “Merik is still young, and he should sleep more when he grows up.”
Xibai pursed his lips and did not speak again.
Merrick didn’t like to hear people call him a child. He didn’t know why, but it just annoyed him.Its tentacles surrounded Ewell and said: “Not too small…”
“Huh?” Ewell didn’t hear clearly.
“Merrick is not young.” His little face turned red, and he buried his head in Evel’s arms and continued: “I have grown up, and I don’t snooze. It’s because my tentacles hurt late at night that I sleep more in the morning.”
Ewell stroked its head soothingly. A few months ago, Merik entered the growth stage from infancy, and was accompanied by painful growing pains every night, especially the first few days, which were the most scary.The sudden sting made Merrick instantly fall ill in bed. No method could relieve it, and in the end he could only survive by taking painkillers under the guidance of a doctor who studied octopuses.
Every time he thought of it, it was a thorn in his heart.
Xibai’s smile faded. Merik was the child he watched grow up. How could he not feel sorry for him? After thinking about it, he asked, “Your Highness, do you want to accompany your Highness to take a dip in the sea water?”
Ewell also had this plan. He asked: “Does Merik want to take a dip in the sea water?”
After each examination, Dr. Derich would go to the main hall to report Merik’s condition to him.
Real undersea creatures will not be disgusted. Even Dr. Derich, who specializes in studying the seabed, cannot tell what kind of condition Merik is. However, when Dr. Derich came last time, he suggested that letting Merik soak in sea water for a long time may alleviate this situation.
Although Merik was almost always in the sea during the day, he still lived with him when he was alive.
The next second, a voice sounded in his ears, interrupting his thoughts.
A red maple leaf fell on Evel’s head, and Merik’s tentacles gently waved off the leaf: “Evel, can you take a dip in the sea water with me?”
“Of course.”
Late at night, Ewell pushed open the door of the bedroom, stepped towards the bed step by step, and put Merik in his arms into the quilt. The tentacle monster gently rubbed the quilt. It was not until the familiar smell hit his face that he became completely quiet, and then he turned and left.
After a while, Evel returned to the room full of moisture. The bed in front of him was twice as big as it was a few months ago. However, Merik’s growing pains caused it to be unstable late at night, so the bed in the dormitory had to be changed several times.
When the moisture on his body was dry, Ewell got on the bed from the other side. In just a second, he could feel the gentle twitching movement of Merik’s tentacles half a meter away from him.
It started to hurt again.
Under the moonlight, Evel’s purple eyes were particularly bright. He approached Merik gently and stroked its back.Those eyes were full of love.
It wasn’t until its body gradually stabilized that the voice rang in Merik’s ears.
“Good night.”
I don’t know how much time passed, but Merik felt a surge of heat, as if he had fallen into a raging fire, and his whole body was wrapped in flames. It was very hot, very hot.
It began to struggle, running in the fire.
But the flames seemed to have life, chasing after them everywhere.
It can’t escape, because there are burning fires everywhere, and it can’t escape either.
“…so hot…so hot…hot, so hot.”
“Merik?” Evel woke up instantly. His arms were covered with wet sweat, which was Merik’s sweat. The tentacle monster in his arms was trembling and muttering something.
“So hot…”
Evel’s eyes darkened: “Merick, hold on, I’ll call the doctor.”
“It’s so hot… it’s so hot, don’t go, Evel, don’t go…” The tentacles swept over and wrapped tightly around Evel’s waist.
Ewell’s expression was solemn. Before he could speak, the next second——
The thick tentacles suddenly disappeared, followed closely by a pair of slender arms hugging his waist tightly.
“…Merrick?”
