Cecilia was a little bored. She sat at a table near the window and looked out of the window with her cheeks. Her legs were dangling and swinging in the air, but there was obviously no focus in her eyes. Obviously, the scenery outside the window didn't fall into her eyes at all, and she didn't know what she was thinking at this time.

Alfred also opened a room in the warm wind house. Sean told him to protect Cecilia before leaving. Although there was no danger in zeloda village, Sean was not very relieved, and Alfred actually regarded Cecilia as his daughter, so he would not have any opinion on the proposal.

But for several days in a row, Alfred saw Cecilia sitting by the window all the time except for eating and sleeping. Then he fell into a state of absentmindedness and did not respond to the cries of others. But Alfred knew that it was not Cecilia who did not hear, but that she was completely lazy to pay attention.

Alfred sat on a chair in the room, glanced slightly at the sky, and estimated that the time seemed almost over. He stood up, then picked up the money bag next to him, and began to silently count the countdown of three, two and one. When the time was finished, Alfred saw that the focus of Cecilia's eyes gradually recovered, and then turned his head, tilted his head and looked at himself, blinking a few times.

”Welcome back.” Alfred sighed and said. He knew this, just when Cecilia was hungry.

Cecilia smiled sweetly. At this moment, it seemed that even the air became sunny: ”Sean should be back today.”

”According to the time, almost.” Alfred thought for a moment and then said, ”he said five or six days. Today is the sixth day, and it should arrive tomorrow morning at the latest.”

Cecilia nodded and jumped out of her chair. ”I'm a little hungry.”

Alfred smiled. Only at this time would he feel Cecilia like a child rather than the cold Magician: ”it's already ready to eat downstairs.”

”Yes.” Cecilia nodded. ”Thank you.”

Alfred shook his head and burst out laughing. He didn't say anything more. He looked at Cecilia more or less as his own daughter, not just because of Sean's advice. However, he can't say these things too clearly. After all, he knows the fetters of Cecilia and Sean. That's the real family. If he says he regards Cecilia as his daughter, doesn't it mean he regards Sean as his son?

Alfred shuddered at the thought that Sean might be hiding behind his smile.

”Uncle, I've been back for so many days. Don't you go to see your daughter?” While dining downstairs, Cecilia asked softly.

It has been several days since he came back from the crypt channel. Although Alfred's injury is not completely healed, at least the general exercise doesn't matter much. Moreover, since the three returned to the village, the attitude of the people in the village towards them has obviously changed very subtly. This attitude is obviously a little afraid, and even some people have a little more hatred. Just because of the existence of Alfred, these people have nothing to do.

However, it is clear that so many mercenary regiments are based in siroda village and radiate around. On that day, at least four mercenary regiments followed Sean and others out, but no one came back. Everyone knows that those people may not come back, but the people in the village don't believe that these people died under Sean and others, but their death must have something to do with Sean and others.

So it's normal to have resentment. But they didn't think about it. If they weren't greedy, how could they lose their lives? Maybe even if you know it, you won't admit it, because this is the life of mercenaries - you never pay attention to the essence and truth of things, the only thing you need is money, and you work only for money.

At this time, Alfred was a little stunned when he heard Cecilia's words, and finally just shook his head: ”it's not necessary now... Besides, fregen doesn't know what happened and hasn't appeared for a long time. Even if I knock at the door now, he won't let me see Shina.”

”What Sean promised you will be done.” After a silence, Cecilia suddenly raised her head and said seriously.

”You really trust Sean.” Alfred tore up a piece of white bread. He hadn't tasted these foods for many years. Even if he came back with a lot of money, no one dared to sell him any food because of fregen's order. Later, although he was taken in by the boss of wine and sharp blade, he was so poor that he had to eat a meat pot at that time.

Cecilia thought for a moment, then put down the knife and fork gently, and then said, ”Sean may be naive, not like a mature aristocrat, more or less idealistic, but he never disappoints people As long as he says yes, he will finish it even if he gambles his own life. Although he always says he is a God and never cares about honor, he cares about the sense of honor of the team more than anyone else. ”

Alfred did not expect Cecilia to answer himself so seriously. He also fell into a kind of silence. A moment later, he smiled and said, ”Sean is still a bad speaker. His ability to persuade others is not very good, but his ability to provoke others is really great. That night in the pub, you slept early, so you don't know the situation. I broke his heart at that time. ”
