Diary of a Dead Wizard - Chapter 105

Chapter 105 (Mofan Town Story) I hope Ada is happy

The noise here has alarmed the neighbors. Everyone even rushed to the gate of the courtyard to watch the excitement without even bothering to put on their clothes.

In the room, Penny had already climbed out of bed, and moved her little feet little by little to Thor. Her face did not show the despair that her brother had.

Penny touched Thor’s knee and gently shook his leg.

“Brother Thor.”

“I’m here.”

“Are they going to take Penny away?”

“Yes, and your brother shouldn’t be able to stop them.”

“Then Brother Thor,” Penny raised her little face, but there was not much fear on her face, “After Penny is taken away, will she die?”

“Almost, are you afraid?”

“Actually, death is not a terrible thing. Brother Thor…”

“Huh?”

“Since Penny is going to die, the eyes will be useless. Brother Thor, you can take them.”

Thor stared at Penny, couldn’t help but smile softly, raised his hand and rubbed Penny’s head.

“Brother Thor, I’m not someone who takes your things for nothing. Tell me, do you have any other wishes?”

Penny raised her hand and touched her head with an innocent look. This was the first time someone rubbed her head.

“I hope…” Penny said without hesitation, “Ada can live a happier life in the future.”

Thor was stunned and looked at little Penny, thinking that she would say that she didn’t want to die or something.

“I know.” Thor said softly, “Now, look up and open your eyes. It will hurt a little bit.”

Outside the door, Ada was still making her last effort, and Captain Jeff did not use v*olence immediately.

Over the years, he has always been like this. Instead of taking the girl away violently, he would let the girl’s family give up voluntarily under the siege of the town people.

In this way, when they dream at midnight, they can comfort themselves that they sacrificed their children for the sake of the overall situation of the town.

Outside the door, someone has indeed begun to persuade Ada.

The reasons used are nothing more than “the town has taken you in”, “you can also live a stable life in the town in the future”, “people should not forget gratitude”, etc.

Aunt Jenny, who always loved to join in the fun, appeared at the gate of the courtyard. She walked in slowly, and as soon as she spoke, Ada, who had been blocking the door, broke down.

“Ada, just let Captain Jeff take Penny away. You have been in Mofan Town for so many years, and you have no intention of leaving with Penny. Aren’t you prepared for Penny to be taken away one day?”

Ada, who had a tough face just now, raised his head in disbelief, “Aunt Jenny!”

Jenny chuckled, “Otherwise you should have left long ago, aren’t you just greedy for the stability and wealth of Mofan Town? In this kind of life, taking a little risk with your sister is acceptable, isn’t it?”

Ada’s shoulders collapsed, and he shook his head in despair, “No, no.”

Captain Jeff glanced at the sky. This Ada was unexpectedly difficult to deal with, and today neither the wizard nor the mayor could come…

He waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him rushed forward and decided to rob people.

I have met tough people over the years. If you don’t have time, you can snatch them away first and comfort them.

When Ada saw the soldiers rushing up, he ran to the door of the house and pressed his hands and feet against the door frame.

“No, I won’t let you take Penny away.”

The soldier didn’t care about an unarmed teenager and was about to use his fists to clear the way.

At this time, a man suddenly rushed out from behind the soldier and inserted himself directly between Ada and the soldier.

It was Jayce.

He held a long knife in his hand, exactly the same as the knife hanging on Jeff’s waist.

“Hey, Ada, can you save Penny like that? At the critical moment, you still need to take up a weapon like me.”

“Jayce?” Ada never thought that at the most critical moment, it was Jayce, whom he had always looked down on and was most on guard against, who stood up to protect Penny.

Seeing Jayce appear, Captain Jeff, who had been standing next to him, finally stepped forward.

“Jayce, this is not your business.” Jeff also drew out his long knife.

“Of course I will. To be honest, Penny is already my daughter. She calls me dad, so I naturally have to protect her.”

Jeff’s face was a little serious when he saw this.

The people in the courtyard also retreated one after another. They realized that a fight might really happen.

“You go and bring Penny out, and I will leave Jayce to you.” Captain Jeff ordered loudly.

Jayce knew that Ada would not be a match for those soldiers. While he was careful of Jeff, he also had to help Ada share most of the pressure.

But after leaving the army for so many years, he might not be able to deal with so many people.

A bloody fight was inevitable.

“Ada, Jayce.”

“Brother, Dad.”

Penny’s low voice came from behind.

Both of them were shocked and looked back at the house.

Penny was groping towards the outside of the house, and her eyes, which were always open on weekdays, were tightly closed.

In the room, Thor was still sitting on the table, watching all this expressionlessly.

“Penny, go back quickly.” Ada shouted.

“Ada, you take Penny away, I will stop them.” Jayce wanted to continue to delay time.

“Brother, father, stop fighting. Let them take Penny away. Penny is not afraid of dying.”

Ada looked at Penny in disbelief, “Why, Penny?”

But Jayce snorted coldly, “Don’t worry about the child’s words.”

He raised his long knife and rushed forward.

The soldiers on the opposite side did not expect him to attack suddenly, so they could only dodge first.

At this time, Jeff had also arrived. He chopped down with a knife and almost cut Jayce’s shoulder.

Fortunately, Jayce changed his tactics temporarily and put the knife horizontally to avoid blood splattering on the spot.

After all, he had not fought for many years. When he picked up the knife, he found that he was old.

Ada picked up Penny and wanted to take the opportunity to run out of the yard. But he didn’t expect that the gate of the yard had been tightly surrounded by the residents of the town.

Even when they saw Ada rushing over with Penny in his arms, they had no intention of giving way.

Ada wanted to push people away, but found that he could not resist the power of so many people alone.

He was quickly pinned down by the soldiers who came from behind, and Penny was snatched away.

This time, the residents of the town immediately made way for them.

Several soldiers grabbed Penny and were about to walk out.

At this time, Penny, who had been silent all the time, suddenly turned around and shouted loudly: “Ada, Brother Thor promised me that he would make you happy in the future.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Penny was taken out of Ada’s sight.

“Penny!!!!”

Ada was still held down until Jayce was chopped down by Jeff and several other soldiers.

Jeff did not use force on Jayce, but only left a thin knife wound on his chest.

“Jayce, your behavior has violated the bottom line of the town. You are required to leave Mofan Town within three days.” Captain Jeff paused and said, “Or if you are willing to reform and return to the guard, I can still let you go.”

But Jayce just pressed the wound and slowly got up from the ground, ignoring Jeff’s solicitation.

Jeff shook his head and led his men away.

After the soldiers left, some neighbors wanted to comfort Ada, but after seeing Ada staring at them fiercely with his red eyes, they shook their heads and walked away.

They even said, “Wait until you are rational.”
