Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Quinn? What was the story behind the Left Sword and Yousi?
Su Chen made up his mind to ask Yousi when he returned.
Just as he was about to head in the direction of the group arena, he saw the injured Yousi walking toward him.
Su Chen immediately went up to him. From afar, he could see that Yousi had many new injuries on his body.
“It seems that we were thinking too simply. Those bastards thought that we won easily, so they thought that we’d be easy to bully. Today, they tried to challenge us.”
Su Chen saw that Yousi was still smiling, so he knew that there was no big problem.
“Then, what’s the situation now?”
Yousi said proudly, “They had to be educated. I guess they’ll remember it in their minds now.”
Looking at Yousi’s state, Su Chen was even more curious. Yousi was alone in the group arena. From what he said, he must not be at the level of a few shrimp soldiers or crab generals. Then, what was his strength…?
Noticing that Su Chen was lost in his thoughts, Yousi frowned and patted him.
“Hey! What’s wrong with you!”
Su Chen was shocked, but he did not immediately ask the question in his heart. He was still afraid to ask something that he should not ask. After all, Yousi and Youli were his first friends in this game world.
While he was hesitating, Lotte, who was lying behind him, spoke, “Yousi, why do you have the Left Sword? Wasn’t this sword rumored to have disappeared after Quinn’s death?”
Su Chen widened his eyes and observed Yousi’s expression. He found that Yousi did not have any unnecessary expression. He only displayed a helpless expression for a moment. Then, he looked at Su Chen and said, “You wanted to ask me this too, right?”
After being discovered, Su Chen could only scratch his head and nod in acknowledgment.
Yousi smiled.
“We’re friends. I trust you, Su Chen. In the future, you can just ask me directly if you have any questions.”
As he spoke, he sat on his bed and began to speak slowly.
“When I first entered this game, my birthplace was in Marhaz. Because of my medical skills, I quickly earned money and gained a foothold in the local area. At that time, I only wanted to earn a little more money so that when I returned to the real world, I’d be able to live comfortably. However, one morning, a man appeared in front of my clinic. He was different from my previous patients. His temperament exuded a sense of nobility, perseverance, and valor. So, I immediately judged that this person wasn’t an ordinary citizen. As expected, he sat in front of me. I took a closer look and realized that his hand had been chopped off. The remaining half of his hand was bleeding profusely. I didn’t ask about the reason because from the moment he walked in, his expression didn’t change at all. It was as if he wasn’t even injured. When I saw the wound, I wanted to prepare for treatment immediately, but he comforted me and asked me to sit down. Then, he very casually introduced himself as Marhaz’s General Quinn. At that time, it was during the Battle of Marhaz. He had just returned from the battlefield and had his left hand cut off. He gave me a detailed introduction to the situation before starting the treatment. As it took too long and the resources of this game world were unknown, I could only give him simple hemostasis and bandage to stabilize the condition of his left hand. Later on, the surgery was very successful. He invited me to be his accompanying military doctor, but I refused because I didn’t want to get involved in any muddy waters. I just wanted to make some money in peace. However, he visited me pretty often after that. I also saw many wounds on his body, both big and small. His soldiers were all like this, and their willpower even infected me. Everyone was anxious about the fact that he, as a valiant general of Marhaz, lost a hand at that time. When he was on the battlefield again, it was heard that Lord Marl had found him a prosthetic limb but he refused it. During the performance, he showed his right hand to the people and showed his determination to protect them. At that moment, I was moved by his passion so I went to look for him and followed him to the battlefield after that. However, I didn’t expect that he would die at that time. The battle lasted for about a month and he had always been victorious. However, his body started to experience some problems. One night, he came to my place, not to check on his condition but to tell me he was leaving his sword with me. He said that if he died, this sword would be his reward to me.”
Su Chen and Lotte listened in silence, but after he finished speaking, Yousi remained silent for a long time. Su Chen asked, “Of course, he’s dead, but how was he so sure that he was going to die?”
Only then did Yousi start to speak again. “I was also puzzled about that. I even felt that he didn’t have the will to survive. I reminded him many times when his body was deteriorating, but he would just nod and allow his condition to worsen. The day he died was also very strange. It was at night and usually, there would always be soldiers around his camp. That night, however, there were almost no soldiers patrolling around his camp. The army base was also frighteningly quiet up until there was a commotion. It was the moment when his body was discovered. As the military doctor, I didn’t get to see his body. He was urgently carried to Marhaz and Lord Marl personally confirmed his identity. Finally, they announced his death.”
Su Chen furrowed his brows. Yousi and he looked at each other.
“I know what you’re thinking, and I thought the same. I didn’t know why this happened, so I quickly left Marhaz. After that, I just lived quietly.”
Lotte, who was listening by the side, was confused.
“What are you thinking? I don’t understand…”
Su Chen looked at Lotte’s puzzled expression and moved closer to him. He said in a low voice, “We suspect that Quinn’s death was a planned murder…”
“Ah? How could it be…” Lotte cried out in surprise, but he immediately understood.
“Could it be… Lord Marl?”
Yousi did not expect Lotte to say it like that. No matter what, they were still in his territory, so he immediately motioned for him to keep quiet.
Su Chen also realized that Marhaz, the only city that established a monarch, might not be as peaceful as the rumors said. What kind of person was Marl? Everyone said that his personality had changed drastically in the past two years. What had happened to him? From being gentle to being tyrannical? Was their journey a blessing or a curse for Marhaz? He could not help but worry.. Everything was like a thread that connected them together.
