The Last Elementis's

THE TLE 27

You idiot! You idiot! You idiot!

Niles sat in the courtyard of Tirian's house, gouging his head, but the hand he used to hold his head was knocked on his forehead several times. His face was visibly riled up, while in his heart he cursed at himself.

"Why am I so fucking unlucky? Why does a rabbit have to be so beautiful?"

Niles straightened his body, then exhaled. "All right! Why should we think about? A falcon like me who's about to become an eagle, why should I cry over a bunny woman? He must hate me! Sure oes. I blatantly said I really like eating rabbit meat, of course he would hate me! Then let it go! Why should I be dizzy? I'll find another beautiful woman! What hard!"

Those words were very loud coming out of his mouth. However, a few seconds later a larger complaint came out of the same mouth. Niles grabbed her hair, she was about to cry.

"Ohhh no how is this?! I tried to forget it for a few days but I couldn't! Why does he keep haunting my mind?!"

The monologue continues.

"Will he forgive me? How am I supposed to apologize?"

After continuing to complain, Niles finally resigned and laid his head on the table.

His sad face was suddenly flat, but the voice was still desperate.

"Death me. It seems my hope of becoming her lover is just a fantasy. Of course, cats and rats will never make up."

Niles' eyes closed as he began to calm his mind. In just about half an hour, the silence that existed had been replaced by commotion. Three men appeared and stood in front of him.

"Eh what a coincidence. Niles we're looking for you." One of the three men said. Then his brows furrowed at the sight of Niles who was usually well-bodied now asleep lethargic .

Niles woke up lazy.

"There go practice don't bother me."

In a state of fine, Niles already looked scary what else with that tangled look. Of course they won't want to stand there any longer. However, another one suddenly said,

"Sure, sure, we'll be gone soon. But you helped with our training yesterday. We feel bad not giving gifts."

Niles was very uninterested, but not only had the falcon refused, something had been thrown on the table.

"This is the rabbit we just caught! We specifically hunt for you. We all know you like rabbits a lot." The man spoke with great excitement. He did not even notice Niles' face turning in shock.

"Why are you carrying this?! Quickly take it back!"

Everyone who stood there was naturally astonished. A Niles would not refuse his favorite food. So they can only guess.

"Tumben. Are you on a diet?''

Blood splattered on the surface of the table, Niles inexplicably became horrified to touch it.

"Take it away!"

Instead of obeying, the three men whispered.

"Maybe he's just a lame."

"Yes let it go. He'll take it."

"Yes, let's just go."

Niles became furious.

"What are you guys talking about? I told you to take him!"

The three of them just scratched their nape and laughed awkwardly.

"Ahaha that's for you. We can't take it back."

"Ah done. We'll just go. It's up to you to take her where."

"Yes yes. We're going to go."

Niles got up to hold them off but the men had already run away. "He-hey! Ti— why you left him ..." Niles's face paled, "uh why do you have to appear in front of me."

Niles sat staring at the dead rabbit blankly. When he suddenly regained consciousness, he began to say, "I didn't see him, I didn't see him."

But Niles had not stepped from there, someone had already appeared and looked at him.

Fiola with a sullen look immediately stepped away.

Niles kambali fell down. His shoulders are heavy.

...••••••...

Meanwhile, at Kenan's residence, Sean and Camelia were chatting together.

"First as Mr. Tirian's assistant, his relationship with Gerald was quite good. Alaric doesn't look like a worker to Gerald otherwise they're good friends."

Camelia nodded her head. "It looks like the position is very good. Why did he stop working?"

Sean rarely visited the Tirian residence. So other than the name of the man, Sean no longer knew what problem Alaric was facing. So he just shook his head.

"Don't know. He's a mystery."

Camelia looked at the room in front of her. Why can't we go in?"

Before seeing Camelia fall asleep, with that charming face, Sean thought Camelia was an innocent woman. However, who would have thought once he woke up he was already a hyperactive figure. Realizing that Camelia was not easy to deal with, Sean turned his brain to find a reason for the woman in front of him to accept his words.

"Ekhem." Sean cleared his throat before starting. "this ... Alaric is very difficult to open his mouth. Last time we interrogated him he didn't say a single word. Gerald didn't seem to easily believe that Alaric was capable of such an outrageous murder, so he intended to question him directly."

Camelia cut impatiently. "So?"

"Mm .. As I said at the beginning, the two of them were friends. I mean, it's possible that too many Alaric people still don't want to talk. It's different if there's only Gerald. He's probably more open."

Sean's reasons make sense. Think Camelia. However, this has to do with Troas. The case of Malfoy and Nory was investigated by him. Having previously found nothing, Camelia awakens to discover that Malfoy and his family have been murdered while Nory is missing and unaccounted for, and Camelia will not remain silent.

"But I have to find information too."

"We'll get information that Gerald's out. Just wait."

Camelia did not agree, but she did not answer again.

...•••••...

It's been a long time since they've sat facing each other like this. Alaric even turned his face to the side. However, people who have not met for a long time will definitely have awkwardness. However, Gerald did not think it would be like this.

"How are you?"

Gerald broke the silence with questions that seemed inappropriate.

Alaric looked over and saw him. This man who was slightly older than Gerald looked thin with deep eyes and darker skin.

"That's not a question that should be. So I don't need to answer. You can see it for yourself anyway."

"Honestly, if you didn't do it. What are all your actions for?"

Alaric smiles. "Stop acting like you know me best. What do you think my purpose is to be here? Yesterday you forced me to talk, but once I came to surrender you questioned my actions?"

"What's your problem with that guy?" Gerald asked.

"none. He just deserves to die."

"You're not that kind of person." Gerald took a pause to close his eyes for a moment. "Why did you follow the girl? What's your relationship with him?"

"I didn't follow him."

Gerald lost his temper.

"You said you killed them. Explain."

"I roam the great outdoors without a job. I have no clothes, let alone money. I have been in Troas long enough. Malfoy was so flattered by the residents there. He said the man was rich and generous.

"I came to borrow money from him. But who would have thought the person I thought was my guardian angel insulted me and even spat in front of me. Yeah, that's weird. I was also very shocked. It turns out we can't trust the other person's words before coming to see them for ourselves. Good-natured man as people say .. haha he's just a cruel creature with a theatrical mask on his face."

Alaric took a pause to grin before continuing, "Because of my annoyance I put a grudge on the house. His wife was even worse off. The timing is so right. When everyone goes out to party, I can roll out my actions."

"You lied." Gerald voiced his doubts.

Alaric laughing. "You want me to tell you the details?"

"Honest me. I'll understand you."

Alaric ignored Gerald's remarks, continuing his story.

"After being insulted I darkened my eyes and planned to rob his house. I entered through the window on the first floor. There I found a boy who was asleep. I thought he wouldn't wake up, but who would have thought after seeing me the boy wanted to scream. Of course I don't want to be caught. So I took a pillow to silence her mouth. I didn't realize I had covered her face for too long. When I opened it he was dead."

Gerald could not believe Alaric said it so casually. However, he remained silent to continue listening....
