It is hard to make people feel at ease with the life of Marquis Winston. In the first half of his life, he spent his life in the fields under the sun. Planting and harvesting became the main theme of his life. That was also the time when Townsend was most satisfied.

"Hey, Cross, I bought some meat today! I will have a treat tonight!"

Townsend ran happily with a piece of mutton. Cross was wiping the kitchen in the house. Seeing Townsend coming in, she gave him a faint smile.

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Haha, not hard work! Where is Inman? Let her come down to cook!"

"Here, here, really, you have to urge her like this every time."

Inman was a weak woman in a long dress with silver silk scattered like a waterfall. She took the mutton from Townsend skillfully, walked to the stove and started to work.

Townsend rubbed his hands. He was full of hope for life.

The three of them were ordinary people who came out of the slums. With his eloquent speech and quick hands and feet, Townsend found a decent job in Faria City. The salary was decent. Although it was not rich, it was acceptable. At least it was no problem to have meat once a week.

Kross was the only one who awakened the magic talent. Her ability seemed to be highly valued. Even the famous academy in the capital extended an olive branch to her, but Kross still chose to stay in Faria City.

Inman was weak and sick since childhood, but with her extraordinary appearance and heavenly singing voice, she would occasionally go out to supplement some family expenses, but due to her physical condition, she seldom went out.

This is a warm place in the small land on the edge of Faria City. Although this house is hard to hide its simplicity and can even be considered shabby. But it can block the wind and rain, and it is still warm in winter. Several people are very satisfied.

Townsend felt that he could spend his whole life like this.

This is the first half of the life of an iron-blooded marquis, or the first half of the stage. At that time, he was still a young man who would greet the sun every morning when he got up.

It was like this until the nightmare came...

"Inman! Inman, where have you been? I couldn't find you for several days!"

Townsend closed the door and asked loudly. The girl's sudden disappearance almost scared him to death. Fortunately, she came back.

But, it seemed not so peaceful...

Cross was sensitive to something and gently hugged the girl who was about to break. Her heart was bleeding. She silently covered the girl's torn underwear with clothes and took her into the room under Townsend's puzzled eyes.

Before Townsend could react to what was going on, he heard a heart-wrenching cry from the room upstairs.

"It's okay, it's okay, baby."

Cross also choked, but held back tears to comfort her.

"Is it that group of nobles? Dear?"

The girl was silent. Cross already knew the answer.

That night, Townsend squatted at the door and remained silent all night until he could no longer cry.

When he was ready to fight the fat pigs, the two of them were surprisingly consistent and did not allow him to do so.

"I want to leave, I don't want to stay here anymore."

This is what Inman repeated every day. Townsend spent all his savings and went through all his connections. Finally, at dawn, he got on a delivery carriage with the two girls and quietly left the city of Faria.

They trekked all the way and finally settled in the Kalia Forest. Townsend built a wooden house with his own hands and went to purchase supplies once a month. They returned to the peaceful days they had. He also reclaimed a piece of land and planted some things. The bad shadow seemed to gradually disappear.

Even Inman, who had become taciturn and sad, couldn't help but smile again. She slowly walked out of her inner demons with the company and love of the two.

"Life will always get better and better."

Townsend always said this, and he has been working hard for it. The two girls can see it.

He is hardworking and smart. He really made this wooden house in the forest better and better, safe and comfortable.

Yes, everything is getting better and better as he thought.

Then one day, he finished shopping as usual and returned to the cabin with a lot of things. He saw Kross who was dumbfounded. He was afraid to speak because of an unspeakable feeling of suffocation. The jewelry he bought for Inman fell to the ground.

Until Kross threw herself into his arms and trembled and said: "They took Inman away! Townsend! I'm so useless! They took her away! Right in front of me!"

That day, Townsend knocked his head and bled, but he didn't see Inman at all. The answer he got was just "wait".

After that, about a month later, the snow had covered his ankles. Townsend opened the door and saw Inman lying in the snow, tortured and unrecognizable. Her eyes were dull.

Townsend carried her back to the house, in agony.

But Inman actually laughed out of nowhere, which was so heartbreaking. She said that the nobles were tired of playing with her and would not come to find her again.

"Life will get better and better. Let's look forward, okay?"

This is what Inman said every day.

That's how the nobles are. They discard things like dead dogs after using them enough. If it weren't for the proof of being a student of the magic academy, she would probably not be able to escape the clutches of the devil.

That year, Townsend prepared very carefully for the St. Ming Festival. It was Inman's favorite festival. Every time she would beg the two of them for a lot of things like a spoiled child, and this time was no exception.

Looking at the girl's longing for the festival, Townsend was in a trance for a while. He even thought that those tragedies had never happened, just like a nightmare.

Naturally, Kross and Townsend prepared very carefully for this St. Vitus Festival. He even spent all his savings to buy a lot of rhino meat, which Inman loved the most. They could only eat a small piece of it every year.

Looking at the snowflakes floating in the sky, Townsend silently vowed to protect them forever and never let go. He wanted to become stronger.

"Kross." The boy who had lost his childishness said to the girl with a lot of bags beside him.

"Hmm?"

"Every St. Vitus Festival in the future, we will be together, forever, you and me, and Inman, we will never be separated."

"Hmm!"

Her smile was so bright, like the warm sun in the cold winter.

"Go back quickly, Inman will be waiting anxiously."

"It makes her seem like a little girl! She is the oldest one!"

He held the shoulder strap of the backpack tightly. There was rhino meat inside. He wanted to let Inman have a good meal. She had been looking forward to it all day and had been talking about wanting to eat it since yesterday.

She really changed a lot and had walked out of the desperate pain.

This time, it will definitely get better and better!

Townsend was extremely determined and rekindled his hope for life.

A dazzling light suddenly appeared in the sky, tearing through the darkness and blinding Townsend.

After settling down a little, he looked again. It was an extremely terrifying magic, so powerful that even the two people far away in Varnia trembled.

Wait, there it is!

As the white light descended, everything below turned into dust.

No!!!
