How can a retired savior be considered retired if his price drops to 40,000?

Chapter 74 The mission of the original body must be completed no matter how outrageous it is.
1 years ago, Savita was already very accustomed to the various whims of his genetic father.So, although he was shocked in every sense of the word by this request, he was still able to maintain a suitable calm on the surface and persuaded himself to get started immediately.

First of all, the first problem he encountered was that, as a small ship designed and built with only mortal users in mind, it was unlikely that there would be a place for the original body to bathe.Secondly, Sevatar also doubted whether there could be a team of servitors on this ship that could serve the original body in removing its armor - rather, he had never seen even one servitor on this ship.

He used his Astartes-level brain to think for a few seconds, and decided to ask the self-proclaimed "old member" Jeanne Alter for the first question.In fact, Sevatar had personally inspected it during this period. The public bathroom space on the Storm Frontier was not small, but his Astartes-level brain refused to let his genetic father "suffer such injustice."

Then, Jeanne Alter, who heard the question, answered him without thinking: "Simulation room."

Sevatar almost thought he heard wrongly: "What?"

"Simulation room." Joan of Arc Alter's attitude was matter-of-fact. "Guess why it's not called a 'simulation training room'? Of course it's because it can simulate anything."

"...But isn't this bad?" Savita felt vaguely that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.Considering he had just come out of solitary confinement, he guessed it would be best if he behaved himself for a short period of time.

Joan of Arc Alter looked at him with an obviously impatient expression: "What's wrong? Of course it can be used if I say it can be used. What are you, a grown man, doing as a mother-in-law?"

——Ten minutes later, he stood blankly in the steamy simulation room, staring at a hot spring area with beautiful scenery and pleasant ecology, a bluestone path nearby, and the chirping of birds and insects in the distance.

...Well, it’s a little different from what he imagined, but it’s okay.

In the past, he had no conditions and no care, so Savita, who had no understanding of the corresponding culture, had no fluctuations in his heart.After briefly exploring this virtual environment, I was quite satisfied.

Then, the people standing in front of the small hot spring pond soon became Sevita and Coze.

"Do you need me to call some more people to serve you, sir?" Out of past inertia, the former company commander asked this question very naturally.However, Kurtz just waved his hands in disgust and expressed his rejection with his body language.

As a legionnaire, he probably shouldn't continue to refute.But it was Sevatar who was here, so he asked doubtfully: "But, your armor -"

The words could not be fully uttered, so he swallowed them himself.He watched helplessly as the "Nightmare Cloak" that was originally perfectly wrapped around Curze's body was suddenly broken down into golden particles from the edges, and dissipated in the slightest disturbance of the airflow.Under the dim golden light as the armor disintegrated, the pale body of the Gene Father was revealed. It was no different in appearance from any Nostramo who lacked pigment, and even Sevatar's own was very similar to it—— However, for the genetic offspring, there does exist some indescribable attraction.

Fortunately or unfortunately, before Sevatar could do anything he considered inappropriate, Curze had already turned his back to his company commander and quickly got into the hot spring pool.

Even if Sevatar was close enough to his primarch, facing a naked primarch like this was a rare experience for him.Sevatar could see that the size and depth of the pool were both suitable for Curze. The original body, which was about four meters tall, could sit on the edge of the pool without hindrance. At this time, the water surface would roughly stay at The upper part of the chest.But in fact, his attention was almost not there - hell, he just couldn't take his damn eyes away from picking up his long black hair like splashing ink from the water and putting it on one of his shoulders. Move away from the original body.

He had to take a few deep breaths to force himself not to show too much rude interest in the small patch of nape behind Coze's neck that was always covered by hair and was almost never seen, so it was almost transparent.After confirming that he had adjusted his emotions, he finally dared to kneel down on the stone slab warmed by the pool water, preparing to carry out the task assigned to him by the original body.

——Although a task requires the use of sponge balls and shower gel, it is still very strange for Astartes.

Although this was a request made by the original body, his interest was obviously not high to the naked eye. All of Sevatar's actions were infected by this emotion and became fast, light, and cautious.Perhaps because of what was captured on a disgraceful video, Conrad Coates' current hygiene isn't exactly bad.Savita took a comb and gently combed the original body's long hair that looked a little frizzy due to neglect. He spent about half an hour cleaning and maintaining it in strict accordance with the process, and then used clean water to wash it again. When it was washed clean, the soft, pure black color, as if it had been cut out of the void, as if it was about to choose someone to devour, gave the First Company Commander an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.

At the same time, he still had to carefully peek at the primarch's expression.According to his experience, half an hour was enough to make Cozz feel dissatisfied or bored, but fortunately, this time, although he did not look very happy, he did not clearly show similar emotions.

"Sevita," he said just suddenly, "I'm sorry."

As a result, the bottle of conditioner fell into the sink with a "dong" sound.Savita opened her mouth in surprise like a fool, and her mind almost stopped.Before he tried to find something that could be properly said, Coates himself, who started this topic for no reason, became irritated:
"Shut up!" He turned his head violently and said viciously. As a result, his long wet hair was thrown out by inertia and stuck to his pale and thin back, where his spine could almost be clearly seen. "I saw you were going to What did you say——"

But in an instant, his expression hesitated again, and then he stared thoughtfully at Savita's frightened face.

"——But would you really say that?" There was clear doubt in the original body's tone.

"I don't know," Sevita struggled to move his vocal cords and mouth, and answered vaguely in nervousness, "I don't know what you are talking about, sir." For a moment, Sevita was convinced that Curze's There was an expression on his face that used to appear on his face.The emotional color it embodies is very subtle. Only the Night Lord, who is closest to the original body and knows his genetic father best, can barely interpret it. The meaning it represents is unfortunately very general. Even Sevatar, In many cases, I cannot understand the profound meaning.At least, he understood the message that the Primarch wanted to convey through this expression, consciously or unconsciously: you should understand.

Unfortunately, Sevita doesn't understand it a lot of the time.The same goes for more Night Lords, and so does this one.

But then he discovered that the expression that should have lasted for a while just disappeared from Coze's face this time.In the haze of water vapor, the original body's dark eyes that should have been staring at him were fixed on a point in the void meaninglessly in deep contemplation - and then he spoke again.

"...Fujimaru Ritsuka is right." He seemed to be saying to Savita, but also seemed to be talking to himself, "It is always difficult to admit one's mistakes."

"...What?" Savita couldn't help but said in confusion.

At this time, he had already felt something in his heart: his original body would suddenly give him such a strange order and forbid him from calling other brothers to assist him, just to have a reasonable period of being alone with him, and not to be silent. It would seem too awkward a time.But even if he understood this, he still didn't know what Kurtz was apologizing to him.

"Stop pretending, you know what happened before." Coz waved his hand impatiently and brought up a small string of water droplets in the air, "During the time after returning from the Claw of Destruction, I thought about a lot of--"

He was briefly stuck here, seemingly debating whether to reveal all his thoughts to his closest heirs, but in the end, he gave up.

He simply made a summary conclusion:

"——I tried to look at my past life from a different perspective, and then I came to the conclusion: I was undoubtedly a huge failure, whether as a primarch, a legion commander, or a father."

You finally realize this is so obvious.The dumbfounded Savita said in her heart.

He knew he shouldn't put these too sharp words into words, but he didn't intend to remain silent either.

He was born in the streets of Nostramody's Nest and grew up among gangsters. His cold, bitter and sharp sense of humor had already penetrated his bones before he joined the Legion, and the Night Lord His own atmosphere also encouraged him to hone this skill more skillfully and purer during his subsequent service career.

He should have had ten thousand witticisms about this - ones that were more positive in meaning, or that packaged negative emotions more euphemistically - waiting in line for him to spit them out, but in fact, the inexplicable heavy emotion seemed to It was like a huge stone pressing tightly on his chest, making his throat tighten and he couldn't make even a single sound.

"So, I'm sorry, Sevatar." Curze repeated, "I will not ask for forgiveness from you, or any Night Lord. I just..."

He was at a loss for words, and that "you should understand" expression appeared on his face again unconsciously, but at the same time, he was also thinking.

At that moment, the Captain realized that his primarch was trying to explain an idea that he had originally disdained.

"...I don't understand. Sir." Saiweita said, almost not realizing that his voice was choked and hoarse. "I don't understand, but I don't care. It's okay if you can't fully explain it at the moment. It’s still a long time coming – I’ll be by your side as long as you want it to be.”

Sevatar hardly knew what he was talking about.After saying these words, he wanted to slap himself twice.The Primarch made no clear statement immediately, but after a few seconds of silence that seemed centuries to Sevatar, Curze nodded.

"Thank you," he said shortly.

　No more today (Migu).The public platform really limits my efforts.

　　In fact, the things simulated in the simulation room are both real and illusory.Most people use this place purely as a projection of the environment, but it’s not like there are no people inside hunting wild boars for the Master to eat (I’m talking about your dog brother).Since I don’t really want to spend a lot of words connecting the landlady’s hot spring hotel to Storm Border, I’ll just pretend that the simulated hot spring is real (you).

　　Also, if you really go to a public hot spring, you are not allowed to imitate Xiao Sai and Koz (pointing).
