Three days passed in a flash, Rikka returned to her heartless look again, and the magic power in Boom's body was almost saturated.
But the morning light was blocked by clouds, and the fine rain wetted Ogu City, but Rikka's desire to go out still could not be quenched. She liked this weather and the fragrance of the earth in the Miracle Plain.
Boom, who was originally worried that the other party would catch a cold, closed his mouth under Rikka's white eyes. He could only stand by the window sill and quietly watch the figure disappear in the misty rain.
However, Rikka, who had just stepped out of the black market, was stopped by someone. He saw a familiar old slave standing in the rain, looking at him helplessly.
"I said, don't come here to find me. Is your master tired of living a crooked life?" Rikka's face was extremely ugly, because this person was the personal attendant of the Marquis.
"Sir, please calm down. My master ordered me to come here to deliver a message. I am just following orders." After saying this, the man handed the roll of notes in his hand to Rikka, then turned and left.
Rikka looked at his figure, a cold light flashed in her eyes, but she did not take any action. She was not afraid of the other party, but that did not mean that Boom was not afraid. In her opinion, the two people's residence had already been exposed.
Slowly opening the note, Rikka frowned, looking like another Boom.
The content on the note is very simple: If you are free, please come and talk to me as soon as possible. My wife is in trouble, and I will give you a dragon crystal in return.
Rikka stood on the street of the black market, looking at the misty Miracle Plain. Then she sighed, turned around and walked towards the city.
My brother is still at a critical moment in his cultivation, and he has also figured out the "Twelve Palaces Continuous Bullets". He will probably need more magic crystals in the future.
Although you can experience the scenes in the novel while walking in the rain, and maybe even perfect the "Gift of Liberation" swordsmanship, Boom's matters are the most important.
With this thought in mind, Rikka lowered her gray linen hood again, and not long after, she stood outside the old Marquis's courtyard. The servant was already waiting at the door.
"The master told me to wait again. Please come in." The man bowed and saluted, appearing extremely respectful.
The reason for this scene is simple. He was one of the three people who survived the killing. Others may question the strength of this little girl, but he still remembers it fresh.
Rikka followed this person into the Marquis Mansion. This was her first time in a noble residence. Those luxurious interiors seemed to turn the scenes in the novel into reality.
The exquisite marble sculptures and colorful enamel vases all convey a sense of pampering. However, the double iron swords in Rikka's hands always seem a little out of place.
"Welcome." The old Marquis smiled and walked towards Rikka, wanting to extend his hand to greet her, but he shrank back halfway.
"Stop talking nonsense, what do you want from me? A dragon crystal, tell me first!" Rikka lowered her voice and replied coldly. In her opinion, the relationship between them is just a transaction.
"Okay, this is your reward. Now please come with me." The old Marquis was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and threw the dragon crystal to Rikka.
This is a huge bedroom, its door is comparable to the courtyard door of a black market, and there are guards standing on both sides. When the guards saw that the master had invited such a little girl, they felt a little contemptuous.
The old Marquis walked in, but Rikka, who was following behind, was stopped by the two of them. You looked like you didn't deserve to enter.
Realizing that the old Marquis was looking the same behind him, he wanted to scold him, but before the words could reach his mouth, he was blocked by Rikka's actions.
Rikka's small hands were gently placed on the armor, scratching their shoulder blades as if crushing a tomato. And before they could even let out a scream, they smashed their throats with one punch. p>
Bang, bang! The last thing left by the two of them in the world was two soft sounds. The blood soaked Rikka's leather boots and left a line of blood marks on the ground.
"If you dare to do this again, I don't mind killing you now." Rikka had a gloomy face, like a beast roaring.
"It doesn't matter how many pieces of trash die. Come and see my wife. She is in a very bad condition right now." The old Marquis waved his hand to the servant, then pointed at his wife and said.
It was only then that Rikka noticed the woman lying on the bed. Not only did her complexion look sallow, but her figure had lost a lot of weight compared to what she must have been a few days ago.
But the most eye-catching thing is the high bulge of the lower abdomen. Rikka has never seen pregnant people before, but she has never seen such huge fetal movements.
At this time, the woman's lower abdomen was like a ball that had expanded countless times. Not only were the skin torn apart, leaving white marks, but even the blood vessels turned into deep purple.
But the weirdest thing is that it seems to be pregnant with a demon inside. Sometimes a small face appears on the skin, and sometimes it kicks out its feet.
"I'm not a midwife, so I can't do anything about this situation," Rikka said.
"No, no, no, of course I know this. The purpose of inviting you here today is to see if this thing is normal." The old Marquis held his wife's hand and replied with some worry.
"I have invited all the doctors in the royal city, and even Grand Scholar Knut has come, but no one can explain this situation clearly." The old Marquis motioned Rikka to sit down, and the servant closed the door.
Seeing this, Rikka had no choice but to walk to the bedside. Although she did not know fighting spirit or magic, she had the innate instinct of the contracted beast and the perception of a beast.
She put her hand on the bulging belly and quietly felt the strangeness inside. The fetus, which was still restless, suddenly calmed down.
The old Marquis and his wife looked at each other, and both saw a glimmer of light in each other's eyes. The strong are the strong, and even unborn babies will be timid.
However, Rikka was sighing at this time, because in her opinion, no matter what this thing was, it would not be a normal fetus.
"What's in your wife's belly is not a baby, but this is just my guess." Rikka retracted her hand and said honestly.
"Ah? What on earth is that? Our only son died not long ago, and we really don't want to give up this last hope." The old Marquis's wife opened her mouth and asked, tears once again wet the pillow cover.
"I said no, it's up to you whether you believe it or not," Rikka said, got up and walked out of the room. She didn't want to stay here, let alone kill a pregnant woman.
It was still raining in the sky. If there hadn't been the ringing of the bell, no one would have thought it was almost noon. Rikka stood at the gate and looked at the old Marquis quietly.
"What do you think we should do now?" the old Marquis asked bluntly.
"Take out that thing as soon as possible, or kill your wife." Rikka put away the two meteorite swords and replied impatiently.
"Okay, I will consider your suggestion. The previous promise is still valid, right?" The old Marquis looked at the palace not far away and murmured.
"Put your belongings into a storage bag and deliver them to me, and then give me a name, but the time is not guaranteed." After finishing speaking, Rikka walked out of the noble area.
The old Marquis remained standing still, but at some point, a crystal vial appeared in his hand. It contained a little liquid, which was the secret medicine given to him by Queen Isabella.
