It was shrouded in smoke, and as an Englishman I should not have been involved. If I could, I think I would sail back to my country, but I can't leave. I can't do it because I can't ignore the king's treatment of me.
Kindness is what Orson VII did when I was in the most difficult time.
I was summoned to the palace to hold an important position and made me a court mage. Unfortunately, I am not qualified for this position. After all, I am not a regular mage. The necromancy magic I am proficient in cannot be used in war. It is difficult for me to help the king regain the land like an elemental mage.
long-established monarchy.
However, despite this, Orson VII still tolerated me and understood me, and I am now sitting in the position that countless magicians dream of.
Therefore, I cannot leave. I want to spend my life to repay the kindness of Ossen VII. He is so magnanimous. At the same time, I have always believed that he should take back his own monarchical rights from the feudal princes who are attacking each other.
, in order to help the king regain his power, I did a lot of things that I could do for Orson VII, who was unable to participate in the war.
It was I who killed Lord Felice with the curse, it was I who drove the undead to kill Count Moda, and it was I who used dark magic to take away the soul of Prince Luni. All of this was lost for the sake of the king.
As expected, the leader's separatist territory was shattered by the attack of the king's army, and soon raised the flag to surrender and chose to surrender.
Of course, during the more than ten years I served as a court mage, although I helped the king by any means, I was not always focused on conspiracy. I also made a friend in the palace. She is the daughter of Orson VII, and she is so beautiful that it is indescribable.
A beautiful princess, her beauty is comparable to the sun and the moon, and her appearance is comparable to that of an angel. Wherever she goes, there will be a large number of suitors. She is the dream lover of every noble boy in the country.
No, not only their own country, but also many lords and lords in neighboring countries are fanatical suitors of the princess. However, unfortunately, no matter how obsessed they are with the princess and how fanatical they pursue, the noble princess always ignores her, or Elaine doesn't care at all.
She looked down on them, and she only focused on two things. One was often sneaking out of the palace to play outside, and the other was elemental magic that was mysterious in the eyes of ordinary people.
Yes, in the eyes of others, princess is Elaine's only title. In fact, princess is just Elaine's unchangeable natural identity. Compared to the title of princess due to God's favor, she personally prefers the title of magician.
At the same time, she does have excellent magic talent, and I have been interested in magic since I was a child. Although I know this, as a necromancer,
As a teacher, I couldn't teach her. In order to prevent Elaine's magic talent from going to waste, I contacted my friend privately and asked my friend who was proficient in elemental magic to come to France to teach her. With her excellent talent, in just two years,
Elaine mastered the elemental magic that ordinary people would find difficult to learn in a lifetime, and became an elemental mage. Elaine was just 18 years old that year.
I thought she would be very happy to become a magician, but I was wrong...
It's like a girl's heart can never figure it out. If others are like this, how can I, who is just a haggard old man, not be like this? I don't know when Elaine lost her smile. She is no longer as lively and happy as before, and her beautiful face is comparable to that of an angel.
Covered in such unprecedented sorrow, she was depressed all day long and couldn't even show the slightest interest in her favorite magic. So, I asked her privately, but her answer scared me into a cold sweat!
Because Elaine often sneaked out of the palace, during an outing a few months ago, Elaine fell in love with a commoner young man.
……………
Abel, a young, handsome young man with a sense of justice.
In troubled times, bandits are rampant and people are dying. People are reluctant to leave the city unless they have to. After all, bandits in the wilderness like to rob people on the road, and it is not uncommon to kill people afterwards. I originally thought that Elaine would just wander around the city as usual.
However, Xu was already tired of playing in the city. This time, Elaine went directly out of the city, and then she encountered bandits while returning to the city without any surprise.
As a magician, Elaine had the ability to easily deal with the robbers, but in the end she did not take action and became a bystander.
When Elaine encountered bandits in the wilderness, Abel, who went to the city to sell prey, took action. As the son of a hunter, Abel was very skilled. Although he was also seriously injured, he eventually killed all the bandits.
The two got to know each other, and in the following days, Elaine often went out of the city to find each other. At this point, the two gradually became familiar with each other, gradually understood each other, and finally fell in love with each other.
This is the cause and effect that Elaine told me, and I have no doubt about it, because no one in the world knows this princess better than me. Her intelligence and wit are beyond others. Years of palace life have prompted her to penetrate the complex human heart early. Maybe she
The reason why she always sneaked out of the palace was to avoid the intrigues in the palace. She had verified it many times that Ya
Elaine's simplicity and kindness saw her living environment with her own eyes. She pretended to be the daughter of a wealthy businessman and provided a lot of help. Unexpectedly, Abel refused to accept any money. Elaine only regarded Elaine as a friend who could talk to her.
Friends, until this relationship is no longer pure, until both parties fall in love with each other over time and can no longer be separated.
Elaine told me this matter alone, but I refused directly in a cold sweat. For the first time as an elder, I sternly asked her to sever the relationship with Abel and end this relationship as soon as possible, which even God would not agree with. The reason came from
The identity gap between the two parties is too big. One is a high-ranking princess, and the other is a lowly and powerless commoner. This kind of love is not allowed. This kind of thing has never happened in the Orson Dynasty. No, not only in the Orson Dynasty, but also in the entire Orson Dynasty.
It has never appeared in French history, and besides...
As the king's right-hand man, I know Orson VII very well. I once said that Orson VII is very tolerant, but this tolerance is only based on interests. As long as it is in line with his own interests, Orson VII is
A generous monarch, my position was obtained when it was in line with my interests. The calculations and assassinations of dark magic really helped Orson VII succeed.
Li opened the war situation, so Orson VII is an expert in maneuvering and a representative of ruthlessness. He always hides a rational mind under his extremely tolerant appearance. Moreover, this is only one aspect. In addition, as early as
A month ago, the king made a marriage contract for the princess, and a Crown Prince of Prussia was destined to inherit the throne in the future.
In order to quell the war situation in the country that maintains unity on the surface but is actually fragmented, and to regain his own supreme rule of France, Orson VII made the most reasonable and correct choice. Orson VII thinks so, and I think so too.
He believed that with the help of Prussia, it was only a matter of time before France would be reunited.
Political marriage is the ultimate fate that every noble child cannot escape. As the king's daughter, Elaine cannot avoid it. As a long-lasting friend, although I hope Elaine will be happy, I cannot betray the king and cannot live up to him no matter what.
Orson VII's kindness and trust in me, and the fact that it is related to the unification of France, I warned Elaine privately and asked her to cut off this relationship as soon as possible, otherwise the Orson dynasty will lose a strong external support. Unfortunately...
Elaine chose to refuse. She got married and fell in love with a commoner young man even though she knew she was already engaged to the Prussian Crown Prince. This was also the biggest reason for her recent depression, even though I had explained the reason to her.
But Elaine still insisted and said that he would not fall in love with a strange man he had never met before.
I failed. I analyzed the pros and cons from a political perspective and ultimately failed to sway the princess. As a result, the situation gradually developed in a direction that I did not want to see.
As mentioned above, as a friend of the princess, although I did not tell the king about this matter, there is no airtight wall in the world. Half a year later, with the help of the intelligence agency, the princess's forbidden love affair spread to the ears of Orson VII.
When King Orson VII learned about this, he was furious. The moment he heard that his daughter actually fell in love with a lowly commoner, his anger surged. Then he sent all the maids and guards away and walked into the bedroom and became furious. There is no doubt that even though he was angry,
, always rational, he still managed to keep it a secret. Only me and a few close associates could know the inside story. Maintaining his anger, Orson VII called the princess, with unprecedented anger.
Elaine angrily scolded her and ordered her to abandon this relationship immediately and forget about the commoner immediately. Otherwise, not only would the entire royal family be shamed, but her political plan would also come to nothing. Faced with the king's angry scolding, Elaine remained silent.
He didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. Upon seeing this, King Orson VII issued an order strictly ordering the princess not to leave the palace, and sent a large number of guards to guard her until the wedding day came.
In order to prevent the royal family scandal from being leaked and becoming a laughing stock to outsiders, and to avoid being known to Prussia, Orson VII chose to use violent means to intervene forcibly, even at the risk of restricting the princess's freedom. But in fact, neither Orson VII nor the guards guarding him
, none of them thought that the princess was a magician. A mere imprisonment could not stop the princess from yearning for freedom and her lover. With the help of magic, Elaine easily left the palace, and then...
Orson VII was angry, and using the authority of the king, he summoned ten high-level mages to forcibly capture Elaine, along with the young civilian named Abel.
In the palace, facing her angry father and ten high-level mages, Elaine's resistance was in vain. Although she argued and explained, it was a pity that she could not persuade her father. Orson VII, who had long been immersed in power, would not nor would he.
It may be possible to allow noble princesses to marry commoners. This
It violated the royal regulations and political intentions. Even if he did not marry the Prussian Crown Prince, Orson VII would never allow his daughter to marry a commoner. The king would not allow it, the queen would not allow it, and the nobles would not allow it.
, the minister does not allow it, the entire Ossen
The dynasty will not allow it, and this kind of deviation from the code and even religion is destined to be spurned by the church, which represents the will of God, which will seriously affect the reputation of the royal family. Orson VII understands this in his heart, and I, standing by, don’t understand.
?It’s just that I can’t help Yi
Ryan, not to mention that there are ten extremely powerful high-level elemental mages present. My loyalty to the king alone does not allow me to provide help to Elaine. The only thing I can do is to persuade the other party and go to the princess to advise her for the best.
Turn around before the situation becomes irreversible.
Excessive coercion is often counterproductive. I used to know this truth, but now that I am in the game, I ignore it. It was not until the king ordered Abel to be executed that I suddenly woke up. Unfortunately, it was too late, because the stubborn princess was completely
After being forced into a desperate situation, something happened that I, Orson VII, and all the mages present could not have expected:
Looking at the high-level mage who was about to kill Abel, Elaine stopped him with a pleading tone, and then turned back to ask Abel a question:
do you love me?
I love you, I love you unswervingly, no matter you are a noble princess or a small and humble prisoner, I will always be with you.
Death is the best way to test love. Faced with the threat of death, the kind-hearted Abel ignored the king's authority and nodded to his lover in the most sincere tone, saying what was in his heart that never changed.
Even if it means death?
Yes, even if it means death.
After receiving a positive reply from Abel, Elaine smiled happily. She had not misjudged the person. Abel really loved her. The other person's love for her had no purpose, no other ingredients, and it was not her status as a princess.
Just pure and flawless sincere love.
So, Elaine smiled, showing a happy smile, and then asked me a question that was very close to me, a question that only a necromancer could answer:
Where does the soul go after death?
I also gave a true answer. After death, the soul will be judged by the gods in the underworld. The real good people will fly to heaven, and the real sinful and evil people will fall into hell. But most of them will have no major sins in their lives.
People who do no great good deeds will have their souls linger in the world after death, until they gradually dissipate and disappear completely during their short stay.
Knowing that her soul would eventually dissipate, Elaine pleaded with me in a voice that only I could hear. She wanted to be with Abel forever, so she didn’t want her soul to disappear after death. She begged me no matter what.
To keep her and Abel's souls, even if they both fall into hell!
Grandpa Douglas, this is the greatest wish in my life, and it is also the last time in my life that I ask you, please help me.
After saying that, Elaine smiled sadly, then took out the dagger and stabbed herself in the throat as fast as lightning.
As for me who is so close...
I had time to stop it, but I was unable to stop it, because long before Elaine took out the dagger, she had already formed a magic shield in front of her that could isolate everything.
With gorgeous blood splashing and flowing, under the watchful eyes of Orson VII and I and all the mages on site, Elaine committed suicide. She passed away like an angel and bid farewell to the world forever with a faint smile that seemed to be relief.
.
Watching Elaine slowly fall, Abel immediately committed suicide, pulled out the dagger belonging to his lover and stabbed it straight into his heart.
The lovers fell down, ended their respective lives in a way that would rather die than surrender, and left the world together.
The funeral went on as scheduled, and the royal family announced that the princess had died of illness. This reason was reasonable enough, high-sounding enough, and enough to make those nobles who had pursued the beautiful princess sigh in retrospect. But I knew Elaine's helplessness, even though I had expected it.
What may have been a perfect love story may end in tragedy.
In order to repay the kindness of Orson VII, I once stood firmly on the side of the king. During this period, I did not provide any help to Elaine. It was not until Elaine left forever that I suddenly realized that I might have done something wrong. I, really
Is it wrong?
Yes, I was wrong, I made a big mistake.
So I want to make up for it, make up for my mistakes as much as possible, and at least satisfy Elaine's wish, the one who doesn't want to disappear, the last wish to stay with Abel forever!
On the night after the funeral, I dug up Elaine's body from the royal cemetery, and then dug out Abel's body from the wilderness. I took them to a certain place, to the place where the lord had been temporarily killed recently.
Abandoned Chris Castle.
As a necromancer who has studied dark magic for a whole life, my knowledge of dark magic has reached its peak. Otherwise, Orson VII would not be able to reuse it on me. So, looking at the lovers in front of me, I treated it with potion
He picked up the corpse, dressed them up carefully, sealed the corpse into the wall, and immediately released the formation. For the first time, he used the curse formation that even a high-level necromancer could not master, a soul transaction that required a contract with the demon locust.
With the help of the formation, I traded the souls of Elaine and Abel to the devil. In this extreme way, I saved the two souls that should have disappeared soon. Although the souls were saved, the price was shockingly that their souls were destroyed by the devil.
He was cursed! Then he was dragged into hell and tortured. He fell into the endless abyss of the netherworld and was tortured by endless fire.
but……
Even though I signed the contract, I still deceived the devil to some extent. Yes, I had secretly played a trick before signing the contract.
I prepared an oil painting in advance, and then left a magic spell in the oil painting representing love that can bring the soul back to the world.
If fate favors them, one day in the future, their souls will escape from hell and return to the human world, and then return to the bodies that belong to them.
That’s what I think. Unfortunately, these are just my personal reveries. In fact, I don’t know what will happen in the future. I don’t know whether the two of us can meet again in the future. But this is all I can do. I have tried my best to make up for my mistakes.
Fault, the princess's wish was fulfilled.
As for Orson VII...
With the tragic death of the beautiful princess, the political marriage was declared bankrupt. After losing the external support of Prussia, the Ossen dynasty went from bad to worse in the following years. Perhaps realizing that the threat from the king's army was intensifying, the princes and lords who were originally attacking each other
They began to unite and then formed a coalition to attack the king. The war was very bloody. Countless people fell in this endless war for power. In the end, with the advantages of numbers and tactics, the king
The army suffered a disastrous defeat, and Orson VII also died of illness due to successive defeats. As for what happened next? I don’t know, I don’t know, or I don’t care at all, because I am about to leave this world. Before my death, I
I felt the call of death in my old age. Before I left, I returned to Chris Castle and came to the place where the couple I always felt guilty about slept in. By the way, I left this narrative as a general summary of the rest of my life.
v. article.
The Necromancer, John Douglas.
………
Tang Meng read through the notes full of twists and turns as quickly as possible. She turned pale and was so shocked that she trembled with fear!!!
Yes, through her notes, she has basically learned about the past, and understood the poignant love story that happened a thousand years ago. It was a secret past that was hidden by thoughtful people, but who would have thought that it happened to be
What was a romantic and poignant love story in the eyes of others was, in the eyes of the executor, a horror story, a shuddering truth that was enough to kill her and everyone else in the castle!
What is the truth?
The truth is that Cheng Ying guessed it right, Zhao Ping guessed it right, and He Fei also analyzed it correctly. The man and woman in the painting are really in a relationship, and their identities are indeed that of the mummy and Elaine. That is, the appearance of the mummy and Elaine in life. If we say that they are now
If the mummy is determined to be Abel, then Elaine must be the purple-haired female hawk who appeared on the third floor not long ago!
When thinking about Elaine's identity as a mage during her lifetime, it is understandable that the purple-haired lady can use magic.
One is an ordinary commoner and the other is a noble princess. Unexpectedly, this kind of plot that only appears in fairy tales has now appeared in reality. However, unlike fairy tales that always end with a happy ending, once it appears in reality,
The ending is often cruel.
Just as the necromancer left a message describing it, in reality the love between the princess and the common people was destroyed by external forces, and the story ended in tragedy. However, even if the love ended in tragedy, the two still loved each other deeply.
They are lovers who would rather fall into hell than stay together forever, and the reason why they still exist thousands of years after their death is precisely the undead demon.
Magic, a kind of dark magic that is so powerful that it can even start a deal with the devil! I have to say that the necromancer named Douglas is really powerful. Not only can he effectively preserve the body of the deceased, but even the soul that should have dissipated can be transformed by magical means.
Retention, of course, is not the point. The point is that the existence and appearance of the mummy nymph and the purple-haired nymph are too special. From a confessional perspective, it can be understood as...
They are indeed tadpoles, but they are a kind of alien creature that combines body and soul, a kind of alien tadpole that has both entity and consciousness!
The matter is not over yet, and even more terrible things are yet to come.
In addition to their existence being extremely rare and even rare to an unprecedented degree, they are both burdened with a curse. They are actually two undead souls from hell cursed by the mongoose!!!
With the help of his excellent personal understanding ability, thinking of this, Tang Meng seemed to understand why the mummy was able to miraculously resurrect after losing its soul. As expected, the reason why the mummy was resurrected and even infinitely resurrected was exactly the same.
It's a curse, the vicious curse given by the witches.
As long as the curse is still there, the mummy transformed by Abel can be resurrected infinitely, and the purple-haired female locust transformed by Elaine can also be resurrected infinitely, and will exist forever, immortal!
