Allen, threeyearslaterIwill come backto lookyour.”
三根手指突然在艾伦眼前晃了晃,露茜大声说道:“三年!艾伦,三年后我会回来找你的。”Herflexure the hair, is a little sticking out one's tongueawkwardlysaid: „Thismakingsoundindeedwas a little big, the old manwill definitely be confined to barracksme. Howeveris unimportant, threeyearslaterIcanlookyour. To killahead of time.”
她又有点尴尬地挠着头发,吐舌道:“这次闹出的动静的确有点大了,老头子肯定会把我禁足。不过不要紧,三年后我一定会来找你的。你可不要让人给提前干掉哦。”„...... Cannot!”Allen'seyegraduallyshone, said: „You are also, do not let the personget rid of.”
“才……才不会!”艾伦的眼睛渐渐亮了起来,说:“你也是,别让人干掉了。”Lucy„hehe”longsmiles: „InAidahua Star, canget rid ofmyperson is not born!”露茜“呵呵”一阵长笑:“在艾达华星,能够干掉我的人还没出世呢!”Althoughsmilesflies upwards, but the lightsorrow of parting of girl / young ladycorner of the eyeis actually hardto conceal. After shestops, takes off the chain between necksto fallgently: „ThisisTears of Love, lovingLuisais the Queen of night that weworship. Igiveyouto take careittemporarily, inhavingevening of moon, placesunderit the moonlight, youcanseemein the moon stone.”
尽管笑得飞扬,可少女眼角的淡淡离愁却难以掩饰。她停下来后,轻轻地摘下颈间的链坠:“这是爱露莎之泪,爱露莎是我们所崇拜的月神。我把它暂时交给你保管吧,在有月亮的晚上,把它放在月光下,你就可以在月石里看到我。”Lucyhas heldAllen's, fallsto putin the hand of youngster the chain. Allen can feel,amongthatpendantalsohas the girl / young ladybody temperature.露茜拉过艾伦的手,把链坠放到少年的手上。艾伦可以感觉得到,那坠子间还带着少女的体温。

剧院的门这时打了开来,梅塔隆站在门口沉声道:“殿下,时间到了。”„know.”Lucylowers the head, does not wantto makeAllensee the oneselffloodredeye. After shemade an effortto give the youngster a hug, seizedto leaveinnearbywreath. Whenarriving atenoughfardistance, shehas turned headto say with a smilesuddenly: „IwalkedAllen, threeyearslatersees again!”
“知道啦。”露茜低下头,不想让艾伦看到自己泛红的眼睛。她用力给了少年一个拥抱后,就捉起掉在旁边的冠饰离开。在走到足够远的距离时,她才回过头眨眼笑道:“我走了艾伦,三年后再见吧!”„Certainly!”Allenuses the strength.
“一定!”艾伦用力道。Lucynods, thistalentandMetallonwent out of the theater. Allen can also heartheirconversations, a Metallontheaterthenpulled out the mouthair cooling channel: „Your highness, Tears of Love?”露茜点点头,这才和梅塔隆走出了剧院。艾伦还能够听到他们的交谈,梅塔隆一出剧院便抽了口冷气道:“殿下,爱露莎之泪呢?”„GaveAllentaking care.”
“交给艾伦保管了。”„ThatisTears of Love!”
“那可是爱露莎之泪!”„, Onpendant, the teacheryoudid not make much ado about nothing.”
“哦,不就一条坠子嘛,老师你太大惊小怪了。”„Thatis notordinarypendant, itis......”
“那不是普通的坠子,它是……”
The sound the linegoes far awaygradually, Allensmiles. Hespreads out the hand, looks that within the palmfell, sitson the chair of theater. The fallingfine workmanship, from the carving of thatcrescent moonshapegem, to the tracetrend of slendersilver thread, is suggesting the uncommonness of thispendantall. Allengets hold ofitgently, pledged for threeyearslatermustwearon the neck of Lucyitpersonally. overbearingchiefkillerwife
声音渐行远去,艾伦为之莞尔。他摊开手,看着掌间的项坠,坐到了剧院的靠椅上。项坠做工精细,大到那月牙状宝石的雕刻,小到纤细银丝的纹路走向,无不暗示着这条坠子的不凡。艾伦轻轻握紧它,发誓三年后要亲手把它戴回露茜的脖子上。霸道首席杀手妻„Really is an especiallygroupyoung lady, not?” The suddensoundresoundsinside.
“真是一位特行的小姐,不是吗?”突然一个声音在旁边响起。Allenpassed over gently and swiftly a electric currentlikewhole body, immediately / suddenlythenjumped. Althoughbecause ofgoing far away of Lucy, butdivided the mind, but the oneselfvigilance is so when bad, touchedtosideunexpectedlystillnotknow. Wantsknow, if the opposite partyhasevilintent, nowonlyfears that oneselfhas turned intocorpse.艾伦如同全身掠过一阵电流般,顿时便跳了起来。虽说因为露茜的远去而分了心神,可自己什么时候警觉性这么差,竟然给人摸到旁边仍一点也不知道。要知道若对方心存歹意,现在只怕自己已经变成一具尸体了。Jumpsto a aheadrow of chair on a flash, under the Allenbow the body, admits the pocketpendant, makesmovement that canthrowmomentarilystrikes. Thensee clearly, were manyinside of just nowoneselfposition a silver-hairedstainedold person. Heputs onto work the excellentsuit, both handsplaceson the kneepeacefully, that rigorousandperfectsitting posture, makingAllensee a handsomegentleman.
转瞬跳到前方一排靠椅上,艾伦弓下身体,将坠子放进口袋,做出随时可以扑击的动作。然后才看清,在刚才自己位置的旁边多了一个银发斑斑的老人。他穿着做工精良的西装,双手安静地放在膝盖上,那严谨而完美的坐姿,让艾伦看到了一个翩翩绅士。„Verysorry, frightenedyou.” The old personlookstoAllen, saidsincere: „Pleaseallowmefirstto introduce oneself, IamHorne, Horne. Bethkode.”
“很抱歉,吓到你了。”老人看向艾伦,真挚地说道:“请允许我先自我介绍,我是霍恩,霍恩.贝思柯德。”„Allen.”
“艾伦。”
The old personnods, said with a smile: „ThenMr.Allen, youareplanto squatandItalk? This is not quite polite.”
老人点点头,微笑道:“那么艾伦先生,你是打算蹲着和我谈话吗?这可不太礼貌。”Allenjumps downfrom the chairawkwardly, fatherputs out a handto pathisjust nowposition saying: „Do not be anxious, yousit, wechatcasually.”艾伦尴尬地从靠椅上跳了下来,老子伸手轻拍他刚才的位置道:“别紧张,你坐下来吧,咱们随便聊聊。”Significance that this timeyoungsteralsonotknowBethkoderepresented, naturallyalsonotknowHornestatus. Heaccording tosaying the past, sattoHorneby one's side. Allennotknow, wantsto sitinthisold person'sby one's sideis not the simplematter. Even if in the oneselffamilythesedirect linejuniors, wantsto seeHornealsoto needmanyto take a walkandarrangeat the same time, has probably such a rareopportunity.
这时的少年还不知道贝思柯德所代表的意义,自然也就不知道霍恩的身份。他依言走了过去,坐到霍恩的身边。艾伦可不知道,想要坐在这个老人的身边可不是件简单的事。哪怕是自己家族中那些直系子弟,想要见霍恩一面也需要诸多走动和安排,才可能获得这么一个难得的机会。IfmakestheirknowAllensittowardthisold personby one's sidecasually, perhapsthesepeoplemustbe angryto refuse stubbornlyto be possible.
如果让他们知道艾伦随随便便就往这个老人身边一坐,恐怕那些人得生生气死不可。„Imustthankyou, Mr.Allen.” The old personsaidindifferently: „Youwon the competition, simultaneouslyalsowon a richreturnforme.”
“我得感谢你,艾伦先生。”老人淡然说道:“你赢得了比赛,同时也为我赢得了一笔丰富的回报。”Allennods: „Is impolite.”艾伦点点头:“不客气。”Healsoheard that the participant in deatharenabecamewill concentrate on the objectincident, in the Allen'sunderstanding, before one's eyesthisold persondefinitelymade the investmentinoneselfon the bodyandis returned. ButwhatAllennotknowis, even ifby the Bethkodedeepfinancial resource, won50 millionfederalcoinsin his on the bodynight, is not a poorwealth. The daysong, threelivedoes not losethird
他也听说死亡擂台的参与者会成为投注对象一事,在艾伦的理解中,眼前这个老人肯定是在自己身上做了投资并得到回报。但艾伦不知道的是,哪怕以贝思柯德的雄厚财力而言,在他身上一夜间赢得五千万的联邦币,也是一笔不菲的财富。天歌,三生不负三世ThisisbecauseAllenis the first, the oddsare1 : 1 relations. Otherwise, the return of Hornewill be higher.
这还是因为艾伦排名首位,赔率是一比一的关系。否则,霍恩的回报还会更丰厚。Horneshows a faint smile, withoutexplains, hisshrugged, said: „Youlook atMr.Allen, althoughourBethkodeis notonBabylon the oldestfamily, actuallyalsoa littleprestige. You the performanceindeatharenawere remarkable, myfamilywelcomeyoursuchtalentvery much. Notknow, youwhetheris willingto accept an old person'sinvitation, joinsourBethkode?”霍恩微微一笑,没有说明,他摊手道:“你看艾伦先生,我们贝思柯德虽然不是巴比伦上最大的家族,却也有点名望。你在死亡擂台中的表现可圈可点,我的家族很欢迎你这样的人才。不知道,你是否愿意接受一个老人的邀请,加入我们贝思柯德家?”Allendrafts, althoughTony Sifhas also said that eachdeatharenasuperiorhas the opportunityto obtain the favors of certainfamilies, merelyhehas not thoughtthisinvitedsuchquickly. ButAllenhas not joined the plan of somefamilyimmediately, before that twomattershemustdopersonally.艾伦一征,虽然托尼斯夫也说过,每届死亡擂台的优胜都有机会得到某些家族的青睐,只是他没想过这个邀请来得这么快。但艾伦没有立刻加入某个家族的打算,在那之前,还有两件事他要亲手去做。
The youngstershake the head: „Thankedyourinvitationvery much, Mr.Horne, I......”
少年摇了摇头:“很感谢你的邀请,霍恩先生,我……”„Oh, do not first be busyrejecting. Perhaps after having looked atthis, youwill change the mind.” The old personfishes out a pocket watchfrom the pocketsuddenly, opens, insidehas a yellowingpicture. HegaveAllen the pocket watch.
“噢,先别忙着拒绝。或许看过这个之后,你会改变主意。”老人突然从口袋里摸出一个怀表,打开,里面有张泛黄的相片。他把怀表递给了艾伦。
The Allendoubtsreceived, the line of sightfallstothatpicture. In the pictureisfacestubborndelicate and prettygirl / young lady, the outlineandAllenis somewhat similar. Seesthispicturetime, Allenshakesgently. Butat this time, nearbyold personsaid: „Ihavefoursonsandtwodaughters, the picturegirlisIyoungestdaughter, isone that Imostcherish......”艾伦疑惑地接过,视线落到那张相片上。相片里是个一脸倔强的清秀少女,轮廓和艾伦有几分相似。看到这张相片的时候,艾伦轻轻一震。而这时,旁边的老人则说道:“我有四个儿子和两个女儿,相片里的女孩是我最小的女儿,也是我最钟爱的一个……”„IfOk, Iwantto give all her. Ihopeherknow, asfather, Ihaveloveher. Butmysimultaneously is also otherchildren'sfather, Icannotfavor, thereforealwaysoftenkeepssevere. Perhapsbecause ofthis, makinghergraduallyalienateme, made a manhave an opportunity. Regards as the child of treasureme, carries offfrommyby one's side.”Hornecloses the eyeslightly, onhisface, fullis the painfulfacial expression: „Iftimecancomeagain, perhapsIshouldchatwithherwell, rather thanangrily, removesfrom the familyher, keepingherforeverfromreturning tomyby one's side.”
“如果可以,我想把一切都给她。我希望她知道,身为一个父亲,我有多么地爱她。可我同时也是其它孩子的父亲,我不能过于偏袒,因此总时常保持严厉。或许因为这样,让她渐渐疏远了我,才让一个男人有机可乘。把我视为珍宝的孩子,就这么从我身边带走。”霍恩微微闭上眼睛,在他的脸上,满是痛苦的神情:“如果时间可以重来,或许我应该和她好好谈谈,而不是一气之下,把她从家族里除名,让她永远也无法回到我的身边。”„Presentyouhave not perhaps been ableto understand,thisregardingfatheris a howpainfulmatter.”HornelookedtoAllen, the lookbecamegentle: „Ithink that this whole lifecannot obtainhernewsforever, starteduntilthisdeatharena, sawyourappearancein the direct broadcast program. Allen, yourknow? Ibelieve that is the direction of God, ishemakesyouarrive atBabylon. Thereforewhetheryoutoldme, was the name that yourmother,...... Lannie?”
“现在的你或许还无法理解,这对于一个父亲而言是多么痛苦的一件事。”霍恩看向了艾伦,眼神变得柔和起来:“我本以为这辈子永远得不到她的消息,直到这一届死亡擂台开始,在直播节目里看到你的样子。艾伦,你知道吗?我相信那是上帝的指引,是他让你来到巴比伦。所以你可否告诉我,你的母亲的名字,是不是叫……兰妮?”Allenwhole bodyshakesagain, the pocket watch in handfellon the ground. HelookstoHorne, the breathing rapidly, loses the sound said: „Are you...... mygrandfather?”艾伦全身再震,手中的怀表掉到了地上。他看向霍恩,呼吸急促,失声道:“你是……我的外公?”Horneextends the hand that shivers, fallsto the Allen'sfaceon: „yes, child. YourmotherLannie, the full nameshouldbeLannie. Bethkode. Oh Heavens!, does my child, howshe, crossnowfortunatelymay?”Revering of Dominator霍恩伸出颤抖的手,落到艾伦的脸上:“是的,孩子。你的妈妈兰妮,全名应该是兰妮.贝思柯德。天啊,我的孩子,她现在怎么样,过得可还好么?”主宰之尊„She......”Allenline of sightimmediately / suddenlybecomesfuzzy, thatblacksnowy area and silverringglitterinbefore one's eyes. Hefinallyanythingcould not say, Allenlowers the head, does not wantto seethis momentweakness.
“她……”艾伦视线顿时变得模糊起来,那黑色的雪地和银色的戒指又在眼前闪烁。他最终什么也说不出来,艾伦低下了头,不想让人看到这一刻的软弱。Whateven ifbefore one's eyesis the oneselfgrandfather.
哪怕眼前的是自己的外公。Hornecloses the eye, chestfluctuatessuddenly, long timeheaved a deep sigh: „Shereallyleft, right? Iwantalsoto be, otherwise, shewill not allow the oneselfchildto participate in the deatharena.”霍恩闭上眼睛,胸口急剧起伏,良久才长叹一声道:“她果然还是离开了,是吗?我想也是,否则,她是不会让自己的孩子参加死亡擂台的。”„Fiveyears ago, Predatory raceattacks the small town that welived. The mothershe......”Allenpicks up the on the groundpocket watch, looksmother who in the picturethat and oneselfageis similar: „Onthat day, sheleftmeforever.”
“五年前,一支掠食族攻击了我们居住的小镇。母亲她……”艾伦捡起地上的怀表,看着相片里那个和自己年纪相若的母亲:“在那天,她永远地离开了我。”„Predatory race!”Horneeyessuddenly/violentlyopened, is shining: „Okay, Iwill makethemregretto liveinthisworld!”
“掠食族!”霍恩双眼暴睁,精光四射:“好好,我会让他们后悔生在这个世上!”„No!”Allenjumped, saidloudly: „Thisenmity, Imustgo to the reportpersonally, withmyoneselfstrength!”
“不!”艾伦跳了起来,大声道:“这个仇,我要亲手去报,用我自己的力量!”Hornecarefullyseesbefore one's eyesthischild, the old personsighedlightly: „You are really the Lanniechild, samestubbornness, samefocus. Youwantoneselfto revenge, but the child, do youhave the strength?”霍恩仔细看着眼前这个孩子,老人轻叹道:“你果然是兰妮的孩子,一样的倔强,一样的执着。你要自己报仇可以,但是孩子,你有力量吗?”„MustfindPredatory raceis not an easymatter, The Surfaceis so big, the manpower and resources that mustuseare notpresentyoucanhaveabsolutely. Ifyouwantto revengepersonally, thenIsuggested that youreturn to the family, returns tomyby one's side.” The Hornesoundis loudgradually: „Iam unable to giveyourhugepoweror the richwealthimmediately, butIcanpave the waytoyou, spreads a pathtopowerpeak. WhenyoubecomeBethkodeClan Head, youcantransferfamily'sallstrengthsto do the matter that youwantto dowillfully. So long asyouremember, has demandedto the family, thenmustcontribute, thisis the duty that eachClan headshoulddo.”
“要找到掠食族可不是一件容易的事,地表那么大,要动用的人力物力绝对不是现在的你所能够拥有的。如果你想亲手报仇,那么我建议你回到家族,回到我的身边。”霍恩的声音渐大:“我无法立刻给你巨大的权力或丰厚的财富,但我可以给你铺路,铺一条通往权力巅峰的道路。当你成为贝思柯德的一族之长时,你可以任意调用家族的一切力量去做你想要做的事。你只要记住,对家族有所索取,便必须有所贡献,这是每一名族长所应尽的义务。”„Naturally, thisroadwill not be good. Ievencantellyou, onceyouaccept the invitation, youare unable to harvest the powerimmediately, butwill harvestmanyenemiesimmediately. Iam not even ableto enrollin the sequence of positionsuccessoryouimmediately, I can only giveyou to boost, butmore must depend onyouroneself.”
“当然,这条路不会好走。我甚至可以告诉你,一旦你接受邀请,你无法立刻收获权力,但会马上收获许多敌人。我甚至无法立刻把你编入顺位继承人的序列里,我只能给你以助力,可更多的还得靠你自己。”Speaking ofthis, Hornedeeplyinspires: „Thentoldme, Lanniechild. Even so, are youalso willingto acceptmysuggestion?”
说到这,霍恩深吸口气:“那么告诉我,兰妮的孩子。即使这样,你还愿意接受我的建议吗?”Allendoes not want is too long, helooks that the old personsaidseriously: „Iwant!”艾伦没有想太久,他看着老人郑重地说道:“我愿意!”Perhapshealsonotknowthese wordsmeansanythingtohimnow, manyyearslater, thenlooked the pasttime. Allenknow, this simplethreecharacters, actuallycompletelychangedhislife!
或许他现在还不知道这句话对他意味着什么,直到许多年后,再回望过去的时候。艾伦才知道,这简单的三个字,却彻底地改变了他的人生!【Vol. 1, ifwere youngat that time( end)】
