Chapter 285 Kamel and Betty

Camel came to Gawain's study, but did not see Gawain. There was only the dull-looking little maid waiting for him in the study.

"Mr. Kamel," Betty saw Kamel sliding in through the door, and immediately came forward holding a big teapot, "Master, please leave for a while. He said he will be back soon. I’ll let you wait here.”

After this process of thinking and settling, Kamel’s mood has calmed down, and he was a little lucky to hear Betty’s words—before Gawain came back, he was still. Take a few extra minutes to adjust your mood and organize your findings.

"Did he say where he went?" Kamel casually asked while finding a place to rest in a corner of the study.

"The master went to the laboratory and said that there is something on the drawing that is not sure yet. He needs to test it again... um..." Betty tried hard to recall what she heard from Gawain, "Test the 'data'! That's what the word says."

"Data? Drawings?" Kamal suddenly became curious, "What is it about?"

Betty After thinking about it carefully, he raised his head and raised his chest: "Forgot!"

Camel was silent - forgetting, not not knowing, which means that Gawain must have told this little maid Something else, but she obviously didn't remember it... but that wasn't surprising.

Camel knew Betty. Although this little girl was just a maid, she was said to have followed the lord through life and death. She was highly trusted and loved by the lord's family. This little girl could always be seen in the lord's mansion. The girl ran around, and sometimes she would learn to write from the lord in the study. Such a special little girl would certainly leave a deep impression on Kamel.

So Kamal knows Betty, not only knows her, but also knows some things about this little girl, such as knowing that she is a little silly, knowing that she likes to write, and knowing that she always forgets things that are important to her. It’s something that’s not easy to understand… To be honest, Kamel can’t understand how such an unreliable maid could become the head maid in charge of the entire lord’s mansion, and how she could also command several servants here… …

It can only be said that the approachable lord was too lenient with the servants in the palace - but Kamel did not intend to criticize this. He was just a researcher and was not interested in academic issues. There is little interest in anything other than that.

While waiting, he began to study a map hanging on the wall of the study. It seemed to be a topographical map of a fairly large area around the territory. Its precision and detail were surprising. , it is simply not something that people can draw in this technologically advanced era. Betty stood nearby, holding a big teapot and looking thoughtfully at the guest, seemingly caught in a very tangled thought.

After thinking hard, Betty finally spoke: "Mr. Kamel, do you want some tea?"

Kamel was stunned for a moment and turned to look at a man. The little maid with a serious face waved her hands slightly embarrassed: "Ah,No, thank you. "

Betty blinked and returned to the table holding the teapot: "Oh.

But after a while, she came forward again: "Mr. Kamel, do you want to drink tea?" ”

Kamail: “…No need really, thank you, little girl. "

"...Oh. "

After a while, Betty's voice sounded behind Kamel for the third time: "Mr. Kamel, do you want some tea?"

Kamel finally felt that he could no longer study the map. He turned around and tried his best to hide his embarrassment: "Little girl, didn't you notice that I have no mouth?" "

Betty seemed to have finally figured out something. She suddenly said "Oh", and then put the teapot on the desk with a little loss: "Oh..."

Looking at this dull little girl, Kamel suddenly couldn't help but wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a long time, he only said a dry sentence: "But thank you very much for...the tea. "

"The master said you should remember to serve tea when entertaining guests," Betty still looked frustrated, "but I always feel that I didn't do it well..."

"You have worked hard. Well...my situation is too special. I think any maid probably doesn't know how to entertain a 'guest' like me." Kamel didn't know why he said so many words to a little maid. But he couldn't help but said, "How long have you been serving the Cecil family? "

Betty calculated it carefully this time - she had never been able to count years before, but now she knows how to count and understands many things that she had not understood before: "Six years La, but in the first two years, I just helped Mrs. Hanson wash dishes..."

She is only sixteen years old now... In other words, she was sold to the castle as a servant when she was ten years old. A dishwashing girl?

Kamael knew that he had no reason to continue asking, but he still couldn't help but ask: "Do you like living like this? "

"...I don't know," Betty obviously had not thought about this question. She was stunned for a moment before answering, "But Miss Rebecca and the old Viscount are very good to me, and Mrs. Hetty , and the master, they are all very good to me. And when I was little, my family and I were always hungry. Ever since I entered the castle, we all had enough to eat..."

It took Kamel a few seconds to figure it out. The reason for this period is simply that Betty had a ration of the lowest servant in the castle, and her family not only sold the money back, but also had one less mouth to eat.

This is the way for the low-level untouchables to survive in desperation in this era, and even this requires some luck - because the lord does not need to purchase servants at any time.

This is the era. People regard it as common sense, but for Kamel, who came to this era from the heyday of the Gondor Empire, there were too many things that were unimaginable during this period.

However, he was unable to change the status quo of the entire era. Thousands of words finally converged into one sigh: "It is such a cruel era."

"The master also said so," When Betty heard this, she suddenly spoke, "But I don't understand what he means."

"The lord said that too?"

"Yes, the master said that. The times are cruel, and they talk about building a new order and so on..." Betty recalled hard, "In short, it is a very complicated thing. I heard him tell Miss Rebecca and Mrs. Hetty."

"I once had a sister...ah, she doesn't look like you, but the last time I saw her, she was about the same age as you," the ancient magister said quietly , "She... liked to make tea for me at that time."

Betty blinked: "Is your sister also a great mage?"

"...No , she had no magical talent, she was just an ordinary person, and she died of illness before she reached adulthood," Kamel said in a very indifferent tone, "If it weren't for this, I probably wouldn't have left the imperial capital and become a 'disobedient' A member of the plan."

Betty lowered her head: "Well..."

"It's all in the past," Kamel lowered his head and wanted to touch Betty. However, before his "palm" filled with arcane energy came into contact with the latter, there were already little arcane sparks jumping near Betty's hair. Seeing this scene, the ancient magister slowly Slowly retracted her hand and let out a sigh, "Alas..."

Betty felt her scalp was itchy and couldn't help scratching her hair, but when she raised her head, she found that Kamal had drifted away. Go somewhere else: this conversation is over.

The little maid didn't know what happened, so she had to go back to the desk and continue to be in a daze.

Soon after, the door of the study room was pushed open, and Gawain returned to the room with a roll of drawings. He saw Kamel who seemed to be studying the bookshelf, and Gawain, who was standing beside the desk and wandering around. Betty couldn't help but smile: "Are you tired of waiting?"

Camel turned around and floated towards Gawain: "No, I was chatting with the little girl just now. It was not boring. "

Betty ran to Gawain holding a big teapot: "Sir, Mr. Kamel doesn't drink tea! He said he has no mouth..."

"Ahem, I know, I know," Gawain touched Betty's head with a little embarrassment, and asked the little girl to step back, "Go back and rest, I don't need anyone here for the time being."

"Well!"< /p>

BeiTi pattered out, leaving Gawain looking at Kamel with an embarrassed look on his face: "This kid sometimes talks awkwardly..."

"It doesn't matter, I don't care, she She is a very cute girl," Kamel said lightly, "Lord, I have something to report to you." Gao Wenlai was about to show Kamel his artillery design. Thoughts, he was stunned when he heard the words: "Oh? What is it?"

"It's about those aberrations," Kamel's expression no one could understand, but his tone at the moment was full of Seriously, "I think... I know where they come from."

"Have you figured out the origin of the aberrations?" Gawain's expression suddenly became serious, and he immediately walked quickly to the desk, holding his hand in his hand The data and drawings were put down casually, "Where did they come from?"

"We made them," Kamel said slowly, "a product that went against the plan."

"..."

Gawain was silent and didn't speak for almost ten seconds. It wasn't until Kamel felt a little uneasy that he smiled silently and shook his head: "It's actually..." Such an answer..."

"Have you expected it?"

"It's just a guess," Gawain breathed, "After knowing your rebellious plan, I had a suspicion about this based on the information I came across when I broke out of the Gondor Wasteland, but I didn't expect... the situation is actually the same as what I thought. "Tell me, how did you find out?"

“Miss Till gave me a sample of the aberration, which is a clean sample that can be analyzed by magic after the chaotic magic energy is eliminated. I found signs of type II genetic factor mutation in the sample, and This mutation... is exactly the characteristic of the 'god' we created back then."

"Sit down," Gawain sighed, sat down behind the desk, and pointed to the knife next to him. Chair, "We might have to talk about this."
