Rex carried the unconscious Connie, and put her on the desk. He touched her forehead gently with his hand to make sure that she only fainted because she was overheated. He couldn’t help but murmur to himself with a smile, “She’s just like that lass in the past. She would faint whenever she got too hot.”
He retrieved his hand and stared at Connie’s face for a while. She had a pretty face, brown hair that was wet with her sweat, white and pink cat ears, and freckles sprinkled across her nose.
“She does look 50-60% like her. Even these freckles…” Rex murmured, a little out of sorts. He only regained his wits after some time, and said with a complex expression, “100 years has passed. I wonder how she is doing now? Given an orc’s lifespan, she most probably is no longer here…”
Rex stared at Connie for a while before putting his hand on her shoulder, and used his strong essential energy to disperse the heat in her body.
“Mmm~”
Connie let out a moan and opened her eyes gradually. She looked straight into Rex’s eyes and got a rude shock. She scrambled and fell onto the floor.
“Aiyo!” Connie whined and stood up, rubbing her butt. She grudgingly said to Rex, “What are you doing, Mister?”
Rex shrugged, and calmly said, “You fainted and I saved you.”
“Is that really what happened?” Connie tried to recall. She seemed to have fainted because she had overheated again. There were no traces of violation on her body, so this mister was a gentleman. So, she thanked him. “Thank you very much. I have already delivered the takeaway, you may give me the money now so I can make my way back.”
“Alright.” Rex pulled open his desk drawer, took out 10 dragon coins and one gold coin, and gave them to Connie.
“Then, I will take my leave now. Goodbye.” Connie kept the money, picked up her helmet, and prepared to leave.
“Do you know Debbie?” Rex asked suddenly.
“Debbie?” Connie halted and pondered seriously before turning around in surprise. “How do you know my grandmother’s name?”
“Just as I suspected.” Rex finally understood. So, this young lady was her granddaughter. No wonder she looked so much like her then. However, it seemed like she did marry that chap eventually.
“Hello, Mister. I was asking you how do you know my grandmother?” Connie asked again when she saw Rex went into a daze.
She was excited yet wary as she suddenly heard her grandmother’s name coming out from the mouth of a man whom she had just met in Chaos City, this unfamiliar place.
“I knew your grandmother in the past, and you resemble her, so I decided to ask.” Rex regained his wits and schooled his expression. As calmly as possible, he tried to ask, “How… is she doing now?”
“She has passed away.” Connie’s expression became somber and her voice lowered. “After Father was murdered, she drank poison and told me to escape from the tribe alone.”
“She has passed away…” Rex clenched his fists instantly. Scenes from 100 years ago kept flashing across in his mind. That cat-eared maiden that he rescued decided to chase after him, and created one mess after another with her stupidity.
Although she could only follow the traces that he left behind most of the time, and had only spent less than one month together with him, the three years that he was pursued by her was the only three years that had a little tinge of color in his life.
And after he had sought his revenge, he no longer had any goals in life, and he was thrown into Bastie Prison and separated from the rest of the world.
It was only when he met Connie today again that the throbbing in his heart suddenly made him realize his own feelings.
However, she had already passed away. He had lost the chance to say certain words to her forever.
I had said then that I would marry you when my hair reached my waist… It had really come true.
Rex suddenly felt that his heart had become empty, as if something important was missing.
What is the relationship between this mister and Grandmother? Connie secretly sized up Rex. She could sense the sadness from Rex when he heard her grandmother’s demise.
‘Buddha jumps over the wall’… hair… Connie looked at the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ on the desk with bright eyes, and asked Rex, “Was Mister bald in the past? The Hairless Monk? You are the Hairless Monk that Grandmother always told me about, right?”
She had grown up with her grandmother, and since she was young, Grandmother had never told her about the hero stories of the Falk Tribe. Instead, she only told her stories about the Hairless Monk.
That was a superhero with no hair.
Rex’s lips trembled as he asked Connie, “She told you about me?”
“Of course, I grew up listening to your stories. Grandmother told me again and again, until I could memorize all of them.” Connie nodded and she looked at the Hairless Monk with bright eyes. This greatest hero in her heart was standing right in front of her now.
“100 years had passed, I didn’t expect she would still remember me,” Rex murmured with a smile.
In this world, only she would think of him as a hero.
In the eyes of the normal people, he was a monster capable of the worst crimes. Even the prison guards looked at him with fear in their eyes whenever they had to face him.
“Hairless Monk, can you take me as your disciple? I want to be as powerful as you,” Connie said to Rex with determined eyes.
“Take you as my disciple?” Rex asked Connie. “Why do you want to be my disciple? What happened to the Falk Tribe?”
“Gary, that big bad egg, launched a mutiny. He killed my father and locked my older brother up so he could be the new chief. I want to get stronger so I can go back to rescue my brother and kill Gary, that big, bad egg!” Connie said with determined eyes.
“Mutiny.” Rex furrowed his eyebrows. The Falk Tribe was the second biggest orc tribe. It was a powerful tribe, and there were many 10th-tier powerhouses in the tribe besides the chief. Killing the chief and taking over his position most likely couldn’t be done by that guy, Gary.
“That big, bad egg collaborated with a few elders in the tribe, and even got reinforcements from the Aug Tribe. He is a traitor who betrayed his tribe,” Connie said angrily.
Rex remained silent for a moment before he asked the angry Connie with a calm gaze, “If you want to be my disciple and become a powerhouse, the process will be very difficult, and could even be worse than death. Are you able to persevere?”
“If I can kill that traitor and rescue my brother, I will be able to persevere.” Connie nodded with conviction.
Rex looked into Connie’s eyes. They looked exactly like the ones belonging to that maiden when she said “I will definitely catch up with you” with conviction 100 years ago.
Debbie, I let you down in the past. So, now I will return the favor upon your granddaughter, Rex said silently in his heart before nodding at Connie. “Then, we will start tonight. Wait for me at the prison’s gates at 10 o’clock.”
“M-mister, you mean you have agreed?” Connie was stunned.
“How should you address me if you want to be my disciple?” Rex asked with a stern expression instead.
“Master!” Connie yelled ecstatically.
“Go back first. I have to eat my dinner too.” Rex turned with a smile on his face, but his voice was still serious.
