Evil always comes from courage

The waiter and maid mentioned by the butler found me quickly. They measured Henry Jane's figure, and arranged everything before nightfall and sent it over.

His shoes were a generous gift from Refender Jonathan, his dress shirt was taken from the knights in the entourage from Knight Bansfather Bate, his tuxedo was chosen from many waiters, and his trousers were a pair reserved by the butler. Came out for rectification.

I handed those clothes to Henry Jane, and he silently went back to the next room and changed his clothes. Seeing that he didn't seem to feel any discomfort after putting them on, I asked to go to the restaurant for dinner, but he refused and expressed his hope that I would Don't go either, stay here with him.

So I ordered other waiters to prepare some bread and other things to deliver later, while Henry Jane sat on the bed and stared at the sea in a daze.

His eyes were slightly dull. Looking at him, I seemed to feel an inexplicable fear on the surface of the turbulent sea. I followed his gaze. He didn't seem to be looking into the distance, but at the very close sea, looking for something in the rising waves.

Such thoughts flashed through my mind. I didn’t think it was anything at first, but as I recalled what Officer Niklos Ancifer said about what he saw that night, I suddenly felt that this thought was a bit creepy..

Could it be that the monster that sank the whale ship will follow? Or is there something on the sea? With such an uneasy feeling, I asked uneasily;

"What are you looking at?"

I wanted to get some answers or warnings from his mouth, but he didn't answer, nor did he move his gaze to look at the sea. After a long, long time, until I started to lose my mind and think wildly, until finally I almost forgot that I just asked him. What's going on, he asked suddenly and inexplicably;

"Will you stand by me?"

I was stunned and answered without thinking;

"Of course, why not?"

He suddenly stopped looking at the sea, as if my answer made him satisfied. He turned his head slightly and smiled at me, without saying anything, but I felt that his charming eyes said everything. The waiter outside the door was Ring, it should be food delivery. I was about to get up, but Henry Jane stood up first. After putting on those new clothes, he looked much better, at least he didn't look so thin anymore.

He put the dining car Pushed it in, and then took out the plates one by one and arranged them neatly. I could see that his expression at this time was no longer so stiff and lifeless, with a little bit of bitterness, but more sadness in his eyes and corners of his mouth. That plain and subtle smile, although rare, is reassuring enough.

The return trip has not progressed at all. I don’t know if it is because of the long days of hard work. Captain Finnis always looks very tired. He seems unwilling to be with us. On behalf of people, he said more and became taciturn.

I asked some sailor waiters for information, and I only knew that he couldn't even drink anymore. I think after what he had experienced, he might have regretted it in his heart. I hope I didn’t go out to sea this time.

How many days is it now? I really can’t remember. The weather at sea changes a lot. Sometimes I often feel that the nights are very long and the days are very short. The sense of time gradually fades away. It felt like I was really thrown into an isolated island, and I couldn't even tell the time.

I was haunted by nightmares that night, struggling and mumbling but couldn't wake up. I dreamed that the God of Death was wearing a black robe, standing on the deck of the Victoria On top, holding a sickle, his robe rustled in the sea breeze like a sail. It was the scene of Kos being hanged. The crowd of spectators below seemed unaware of the several-meter-tall God of Death, clustering around two But he cleverly kept only half a meter away from him.

The scene was very inconsistent and weird. The person who ordered the execution of Cos was Pope Waldo. He was like a just god announcing judgment and punishing according to God's will. The god of death swung down the scythe of judgment, and Cos's head fell off, leaving only the empty noose floating.

Just when I thought it was all over, I saw Henry Jane being pushed up. , I shouted in panic for a moment;

"He is free! He was wronged!"

But no one could hear my voice. The crowd's excited shouts like waves drowned my voice. I wanted to rush up to defend him, but the crazy people shouted, hang him! Hang him! Squeeze me It was difficult to move even an inch in the crowd.

Pope Waldo began to declare people's crimes again, and the trial began. Just before my eyes, he was impassioned, praising God, singing praises to God, and he announced that sin would be washed away by the gallows;

"This is God's will and we should follow it."

After his last words fell, the sickle started to wave again, ah! People shouted and raised their hands, praising the greatness of God, and shouting their rejection of sin. What a crazy scene!
