Chapter 44 Who do you live for?

A fist stained with stains and blood stretched out in front of Elsa. It opened suddenly, and like a magic trick, a dirty candy that had melted and changed shape appeared in the palm of the hand.

"Elsa, don't be sad, we still have this!"

This was one of the two candies left over from making jam, and it had been carefully protected by Roy in his pocket.

The blue-eyed boy's eyes were also slightly red at this time. He suppressed the disappointment in his heart, peeled off the stained sugar coating, and stuffed the candy filled with happiness and sweetness into Elsa's mouth.

The sweet taste melted in her mouth, and Elsa could no longer suppress the grief in her heart and cried loudly.

The girl's cry broke the heart-wrenching silence.

"Why. Roy why are we going through this?"

"We obviously work so hard to live, why..."

The girl spoke intermittently, choking with sobs as she asked the question that had been hidden deep in her heart for a long time.

The green-eyed boy pursed his lips and looked at little Jolde who was also crying silently next to him.

He did not answer Elsa's question first, but walked up to Jolde, touched his head, and stuffed the remaining candy into his mouth.

"I don't know either"

"But...at least we worked hard for this!"

After a while, Roy, who had rough golden hair, eyes as green as gems, and three-dimensional facial features that looked more like a Loen man, gave his own answer.

His answer was also full of confusion and confusion, but his tone did not include the lifeless numbness and despair.

The green-eyed boy is always like this, dealing with everything with unbreakable enthusiasm and determination.

His firm words seemed to have some magic power, making Elsa tighten her lips, and her whole body seemed to have found new support.

The thoughtful girl kept touching the broken pearls flowing out, and the sweet candy in her mouth gave her the confidence and courage to face all this.

Although they now have nothing again, at least they still have each other to rely on.

They are partners who help each other to survive, and they are also family members who support each other and fill each other's hearts.

Elsa gradually stopped crying, wiped away her last tear, and came to Jold's side.

The girl looked at her younger brother who had red and swollen eyes and was speechless. She imitated the movements of her mother who had been dead for many years and gently stroked Jorde's little head.

Gradually, the youngest boy gradually calmed down, as if he felt the warmth of the family together.

"We have to clear out the ruins while there is still firelight. Maybe there is anything left in those things."

After a long while, the thoughtful girl finally came to her senses. She spoke hoarsely, like a housekeeper, sorting out what to do next.

"Ok!"

Her words were affirmed by the two teenagers. Although the three of them were still very depressed, the fire of hope had been rekindled in their hearts.

Suffering is only temporary, destiny is still long, life is always like this, tenacious and tough.

"Sorry Ron, if something like this happened, we might have to sleep in the wild tonight."

The green-eyed boy showed a wry smile and pointed to the shabby ruins in the distance towards the friend he just met today.

"It doesn't matter. Without your help, I would probably be arrested as a spy today."

Ron didn't care. He took off his monocle, wiped the bright and clean lenses with his sleeves and put them back on.

"I'm coming with you!"

The blond boy smiled, making Roy Moore blush a little.

After the efforts of the four people, the ruins at the scene were quickly searched. It turned out that staying lucky in the face of suffering was pure nonsense.

Because they didn't find anything of value, everything was destroyed in the abnormally powerful cannonballs. This cast a heavy haze on the hearts of the three Roys, and they lost all luck. The crimson night hung quietly in the air, the frightening rumbling sounds had long since stopped, and the airship fleet in the sky had moved away without stopping too much, as if this attack was completely impromptu.

The bright and warm bonfire illuminated the shelter made of simple wooden boards. The shelter was not big enough to accommodate two people to rest inside.

The crackling and splashing sparks once again added a unique charm to this extraordinary night, while Roy and Ron, sitting by the fire, were fiddling with the things in their hands.

"Are you tired Roy?"

The blond boy suddenly spoke, breaking the long silence.

"tired."

Roy answered the blond boy's question without any wavering in his tone.

"Roy, are you suffering?"

The blond boy asked again, without giving Roy time to formulate his words.

"bitter."

Roy still answered Ron's question in a calm tone.

"Then why are you."

Before the blond boy could finish his question, Roy across from him chuckled twice and put down the things he was fiddling with.

"Ron, you want to ask me why I have to work so hard to live if I'm so miserable and tired?"

Ron was a little surprised, he pushed up his monocle, and then nodded silently.

"This is a good question. Sometimes I often ask myself in my mind."

"Roy, since you are so unfortunate, why are you living so tenaciously? Wouldn't it be easier to die?"

"Your father abandoned you and your mother left you. You still face discrimination on this continent and live a life of hunger and hunger. It would be easier to die than to live like this."

The green-eyed boy showed his weak side for the first time. Perhaps what happened today had a great impact on him, and he couldn't help but confide in Ron.

"Why then?"

The blond boy pushed up his monocle and spoke curiously.

"Oh, at first it was to abide by the agreement with my mother, but then it wasn't anymore."

"Later, I was looking forward to my father, whom I hadn't seen for a long time, to take me back to the Loen Kingdom, but I knew that was just a lie by a liar."

"after that"

Speaking of this, Roy's expression was dazed for a moment, as if he was recalling something interesting.

"Later, I met Elsa and the others, and I found that they were just like me, a sad joke biased by fate."

"I think the three of us have the same experience and can survive here."

"As for now, I live for my companions and my family, and I think they should do the same."

As he spoke, Roy showed a smile and looked at Elsa and Jorde, who were already asleep.

"It's that simple!?"

"Yes, it's that simple!"

The green-eyed boy nodded and firmly answered Ron's question.
