Forced to become a delicate companion of a paranoid lord

Neither the adult Thrall nor the eight-year-old Thrall now has any way to resist the side effects of healing magic.

He fell into a deep sleep, and due to his young age, without the use of banned drugs, he would most likely sleep in this drowsy state for more than a month.

After the three-month contract to take Thrall out of the Colosseum was signed, the Colosseum's animal trainers took out a special iron cage, an animal-shaped iron headgear, and iron chains for restraint. They wanted to tie Thrall into the iron cage.

Upon seeing this, Xie Wei immediately hugged Sal and hid behind Ilias, only sticking his head out to stare at the trainers.

These beast trainers often fight Thrall! Xie Wei hates them.

Elias stood there and tilted his head to look at the black-haired magician whose body seemed to be covered with sharp thorns. He was pleased by the little magician's behavior of hiding behind him, and his heart softened. If it were not the wrong occasion, he would even pick up the little magician and hold him high to coax him.

Faced with the masked man who looked like a royal family of the Hasedon Empire, none of the animal trainers dared to step forward.

"What would you like for dinner?" Ignoring the animal trainer at the Colosseum, Ilias took the boy who had fainted in Shevi's arms, then put his arm around Shevi's thin shoulders and took him out of the Colosseum on his own.

Linus led his guards to follow, but when he passed by one of the animal trainers, he raised his hand and used the hilt of his sword to knock the rusty animal-shaped mask in the other's hand away.

Then he said something without much sincerity.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to."

The hood hit the cage heavily, fell to the ground and rolled back, and then was split in half by another knight's heavy sword.

Putting away his heavy sword, the honest-looking knight touched his head and said insincerely.

"I didn't mean it either."

……

After bringing Sal back to his residence, after dinner Xie Wei looked through the potions that the Colosseum had given them as a gift when they signed the contract. He found that in addition to the banned potions that the people in the Colosseum had specifically instructed to feed to Sal on time, there were also some obscene and dirty potions.

Xie Wei smashed the potions to pieces, walked around the room twice in anger, opened the glass door of the balcony and was about to blow up the Colosseum.

Dagambie knew that he couldn't persuade him, and was already thinking about where to hide with Shevi this time. But before he could think it through, Shevi was grabbed by the waist by Ilias, who had just come out of the bathroom.

Elias put Shevi on the bed and covered him with a quilt, then put the cleaned and sleeping Sal, curled up in a ball, into his arms.

Finally, he also lay down on the bed. After doing all this, he did not ask Xie Wei where he was going in his pajamas and holding the staff. He just turned sideways, patted Xie Wei gently, and coaxed him softly.

"Stay with me a little longer, okay?"

The little magician's eyes, which were already red with anger, became even redder. He uttered "hmm" in a muffled voice, then held the child in his arms and moved closer to Ilias. After getting close to him, he carefully hugged his arm.

Under Ilias's gentle caress, Xie Wei gradually calmed down, but what followed was sadness and grief that surged like a tide.

He didn't want to be separated from Elias.

He doesn't want to be separated from his father.

Thinking of this, tears couldn't help but flow down the corners of my eyes and onto the pillow.

Ilias's hair was still wet, so Shevi used magic to dry his hair, and his own tears soaked the pillow.

Xie Wei held Sal tightly in his arms. Sal's body was very hot, but the little child's heart was beating so fast that it made people feel uneasy.

The young Sal, warm in his arms, could not yet bring a sense of security and belonging to Shevi.

At this moment, Xie Wei felt more that Sal, who was lying obediently on his chest, regarded him as his only home.

This feeling is amazing.

Elias stared at the bed curtains, trying to suppress the fear that was growing in his heart, as if he was about to lose something. He had a lot to say, but all the words were stuck in his throat, like a ball of cotton, making it difficult for him to breathe.

After an unknown amount of time, Shevi withdrew his arms from Ilias and instead hugged Sal with both hands.

And Elias also withdrew his arm from patting Shevi.

They said good night to each other and closed their eyes, but neither of them felt sleepy at all.

There will be no sleep tonight.

May 969, 10, light rain.

Xie Wei never thought about his second meeting with his parents because he was afraid of separation.

But when they really met a second time and it was time to say goodbye, he looked calmer than anyone else.

But this is only what others see. In Elias's eyes, the emotions expressed by Shevi were so strong that he felt that this would be a farewell forever.

So, when Xie Wei waved goodbye to him.

Elias looked him straight in the eye and responded seriously.

"Goodbye."

I hope this is not a farewell forever, I hope we can meet again.

The Dragon Wing Knights were moving further and further away, and Ilias's figure became a small black dot in sight.

Only when he could no longer see him did Xie Wei turn his horse around and gallop towards the inn.

……

After Ilias left Salona, ​​some of the mercenaries from the Akabane Mercenary Group moved to the inn where Xie Wei was staying. This was something Ilias had agreed on in advance by sending someone to talk to the leader of the mercenary group.

The inn has already paid more than a month's rent, so the mercenaries can stay there for free until they leave Salona.

Ilias didn't give any special instructions, but the mercenaries all knew that they were able to live in a spacious and bright luxury hotel mainly because of Xie Wei. The mercenaries had always gotten along well with Xie Wei, and now they treated him like a treasure.

Shevi still lived in Elias's bedroom with Sal.

Sal's addiction to the banned drugs was even more serious than Shevi had imagined. If he was not given the drugs on time, he would become extremely manic and aggressive.

After accidentally hurting Shevy several times, Sal locked himself in the closet and refused to come out no matter how Shevy coaxed him.

He also bit his sharp nails until they were bare, and then rubbed them flat against the wall.

On November 969, 11, the Akabane Mercenaries escorted the Colosseum's convoy out of Salona.

Xie Wei followed at the end of the team with Thrall. The contract had not expired yet, so Thrall still belonged to him and did not need to be locked in a cage like other gladiators.

……

As time went by, Xie Wei never left Sarr again. He followed the mercenary group to escort the convoy to the Colosseum and traveled to various cities in the southeast region. It was mid-May 971 when he left the southeast region again.

The letters brought by the familiars from the imperial capital were becoming fewer and fewer, but from the previous letters, Xie Wei obtained a lot of information about banned potions, and also visited some magicians and pharmacists according to the addresses given by his mother.

He learned a lot of knowledge, met many people, and experienced the customs and practices of various regions.

The unfamiliar Lar continent gradually formed a complete map in his mind, and this map also existed in the system.

After Xie Wei collected the magic plant herbs given by his mother's friends to make the banned potion, he failed to make the soothing agent for the banned potion.

To be precise, he didn't make a soothing agent that was effective enough.
