"How could this be?"
After listening to Allen's narration, Kelvin gradually clenched his fists.
Because he used too much strength, his knuckles were bloodless.
His eyes were low and calm, showing a sense of guilt and self-blame.
"It's not your fault." Looking at the dispirited look on his face, Allen comforted him.
"It's all my fault. Otherwise, we wouldn't have ended up like this."
"And... I also got you into trouble."
He sighed slightly, gritted his teeth and began to blame himself deeply.
"It's none of your business. We didn't expect this to happen."
Sitting cross-legged in front of him, Allen breathed a sigh of relief. Looking around, his heart was filled with uncertainty.
After all, he didn't even see the person who caught them clearly.
And he knew nothing about his purpose.
"I'm a disgusting person. It's all my fault."
Kelvin's voice was pained. His right hand did not know when to grip a handful of hay on the ground. The blades of the hay were sharp as the teeth of a saw.
Every wound was bleeding.
"Why do you say that?" Allen asked in confusion.
"That's how it is. I'm an illegitimate child. Since I was born, I haven't been loved by any parents. It seems that all my things will slowly leave me."
"No matter relatives or friends, they will slowly leave me and be hurt by me. I am just a nemesis."
The more he said, the more excited he became. Gradually, his eyes were filled with tears.
He seemed to be in a choked and painful state.
"No, you won't. Don't think too much. It's not your own choice."
Allen asked with concern. All of a sudden, he felt sorry for Kelvin.
"Kelvin, you're awesome. Trust yourself."
Allen patted on his shoulder and smiled.
"My real name is Arthur."
Slowly, he raised his head and looked into Allen's eyes. There were still tears in his eyes.
"Arthur?!"
Allen pretended to be shocked.
However, it was obvious that the man in front of her was exactly the illegitimate child of the castellan, which was also Arthur, who had the nickname "Kelvin".
Allen didn't know what to say when he saw the innocent man who spoke out his real identity and name.
It didn't take much effort to get it.
"But don't tell anyone about it, because I don't want anyone to know."
"I won't tell anyone else. I'll call you Kelvin from now on."
Allen nodded.
Then he stood up and walked to the wall of the cage. He tapped the cold stone with his hand, making a dull sound.
His eyes darkened. He slowly walked back to Allen and sat down cross-legged. "The wall is very hard," He said with disappointment
"Yes, I have tried it before. It should be difficult to open it with our strength. Since someone wants to catch us, he must have been well prepared."
Allen said helplessly.
He turned to look at Arthur, who was sitting next to him.
Thinking of what he had said just now, she gradually had some other opinions about him.
And it didn't seem to have any ulterior motive as Miss Nina said.
He was just a poor woman.
"No, we have to escape!"
At this moment, Kelvin, who had been quiet for a while, suddenly became excited.
He frowned and looked back at Allen who was at a loss.
"Allen, do you know where that master is?"
Allen didn't know what was going on with his change. Instead of answering him, he thought for a while.
"I don't know. I fainted when we were arrested, but I woke up earlier than you."
"When I regained my consciousness, what appeared in front of me was exactly what we saw now. We were locked in an iron cage."
There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes. "Then what about us?"
"I don't know. But since the man in black has caught us, it shouldn't be easy for us to get out."
"And we can't go out now."
Allen pretended to sigh and said, "Prepare for the worst."
"The worst plan?" Kelvin frowned and looked confused.
"Well, the worst plan is that we will die here."
Allen said calmly, with a hint of desolation in her tone.
A gust of cold wind blew outside.
Although there were constant noises, there was no doubt that there was dead silence in his heart.
"Die here..."
All of a sudden, his eyes became empty.
His right hand, which was clenching the dry grass, loosened a little, and the crushed hay was scattered little by little.
"Maybe." Allen murmured.
Then he found a comfortable position to lie down, leaning against the iron railing at the side of the cage behind him.
He held the back of her head with her hands and closed his eyes. After a while, he breathed evenly.
"What? Something is wrong!"
After a long time, a sudden scream broke the silence in the cage.
Allen opened his eyes immediately.
"What's wrong?" Allen asked in confusion.
"I'm sure we're still on the island." A smile suddenly appeared at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were full of light.
"Still on the island?" Allen frowned and looked at him in disbelief.
Did he feel something?
"Yes, we are still on the island!"
Kelvin nodded in an affirmative tone.
Then he suddenly stood up and walked to the window. He looked at the scenery outside with his eyes. Then he turned to Allen and pointed outside.
"I was confused just now, because I didn't know where we were now. Everything made me a little desperate."
"But now I remember that it is still on the island where we train."
Kelvin pointed out of the window, where the light came in and the wind blew from outside.
"Look, the scenery outside is so familiar, and the trees outside are also unique to the island. I paid special attention to it when I went to the island before, and I just remembered it by accident."
"What's more, the wind is blowing from the outside. It's clearly the smell of the sea wind, mixed with a little moist and salty. It's easy to feel it. I can vaguely hear the echo of the waves hitting the shore."
Speaking of this, he suddenly wrinkled the tip of his nose and said in a disappointed tone.
"I even smelled the blood in the air..."
Allen slowly stood up from the ground and leaned against the handrail.
Splash.
The sound of the chain colliding with the railing suddenly sounded. Allen felt that the railing in her hand moved so fast that he almost lost his balance.
Then Allen turned around and saw the cage.
It seems that... It seemed that the door was not closed?
Allen stopped and looked at the chain.
With a gentle pull, the iron chain fell.
"They didn't lock the door?" With excitement in his eyes, he hurried forward and took a few steps.
"Shh... Let's go out quietly. Don't make any noise." Allen said in a low voice.
Realizing what was going on, Kelvin gradually relaxed his strength.
Allen opened the door carefully. Seeing no one around four times, the two walked out on tiptoe.
