"It's stupid, but people believe it. No matter how Fzoun defends it, they hold torches, and the firelight shines in their eyes, like demons crawling out of hell.
People rushed into his home and killed his wife who was guarding the bedroom door. The knight's oath made it difficult for Forzon to point his sword at civilians at the last moment.
That night, the fire tore the darkness apart. Until the young Lord of Sinto City arrived, everything was over, and the family house on the outskirts of the outer city was left with only ashes and ruins..."
At this point, Joao burst into tears.
"Long time no see, little João..." Forzon raised his bloody finger. His eye was pierced and it was difficult to open it anymore.
"Why don't you come to me? If you come to Sinto City, no one can touch you!" the young city lord growled.
"You are still young, and there are people in Sinto City who are trying to covet your position as the city lord. There are not many people in the Leno family left, so I can't cause you any trouble." Fuzon was dying, and it was difficult for him to speak his voice again.
"Hold on, I'll call the doctor." The city lord punched the grass nearby, splashing a large piece of soil.
"It couldn't be saved. Someone opened a hole of more than ten centimeters in my abdomen. The injuries all over my body were enough to kill me many times. Crystal is still in the house, and I hid her in a dark compartment."
The great knight's breath came in and out heavily, and his articulation was very unclear. Every time he spoke, he spurted out some blood and sprinkled it on his silver armor.
"Christopher Rozekadan, my wife's surname is my wife's last name. How about it? Doesn't it sound nice? I envy you? You should also get married...ahem..." The great knight spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, with a faint look of vitality in his eyes.
Go down.
"Hey, wait..."
"Afterwards, I found Michelle in the dark compartment of Forzon's home, who was as calm as an ice sculpture. At that time, her gray-blue eyes had a hint of blood red, and she was whispering one word...liar.
She actually knows everything, or Michelle knows everything. As an older sister, she has been comforting her younger sister, Crystal. That day I realized that Old Man Ston was not wrong, they were indeed twin sisters. It’s just that
They are in the same body.
Sir, don't have any dislike for Michelle because of this. Whether it is a witch or one body with two souls, it is not her choice. As Forzon said, he hopes that his child will be an ordinary person and be happy.
Live a lifetime."
João looked at the teacup in his hand, coughed slightly, and drank all the tea in one gulp.
Is this why Michelle had difficulty controlling ice in Elmoyne Castle before? At that time, she should be called Crystal. Xavier nodded. He already had a clue of all this, but
It's really shocking to hear it.
"After that, I will transfer you to the hospital in the inner city. Then I will leave for a while. I hope you can take care of the civilians in Sinto City." Xavier stood up, and Ye Luo beside him immediately handed over the white silk gloves.
She walked to Xavier and carefully straightened the folds on her coat. These were taught to her by the maids in the castle. In Iyalan's words, they were "how to be an excellent personal maid."
"Sir, are you going to Linglan?" João smiled, the light reflected from his glasses covering his eyes.
"Yes." Xavier did not hesitate, turned around and opened the ward door.
Returning to the Rose Castle, Xavier went to the small study on the top floor. He sent away the maid on the top floor beforehand, and even Naples went to the lower floors.
"Master, you look a little bad." A steady and hoarse voice came, and Xavier raised his tired eyelids.
"Isaac, don't follow me. You have fragments of the ocean on your body, which I can easily feel." There was a hint of helplessness in Xavier's voice.
"I'm sorry, Master. It's just that I heard some rumors about the Lord João - you have to know that rumors are always based on certain facts." The shadow was thick and turned into a vicissitudes of life.
"for example?"
"He made a deal with the devil."
"Is he a fallen one? First of all, let's not mention demons, creatures like elves that no one has ever seen. What this sentence means is... what contract has he signed and achieved a purpose." Xavier followed Isaac.
If so, I thought about it for a long time before saying it.
"Very good, there are many such things as contracts. Human beings can also sign soul contracts with many creatures. In people's eyes, those bad creatures can be classified as monsters, and those who sign contracts with them are heretics and degenerates."
Isaac nodded with satisfaction.
"There is no evidence, Isaac." Xavier shook his head, "According to my information, the civilians in Cinto City are extremely supportive of Joao. Why would he take the risk to sign a black contract?"
Isaac didn't speak. He sat by the stone pillar outside the window. The days in Nori were getting shorter and shorter these days, and Xavier knew that this was the polar night in the snowy realm getting closer.
"Master, have you seriously seen the starry sky in Noli on a clear night? If there were no extreme cold storms, this would be a beautiful city." Isaac smiled with endless vicissitudes of life.
"The next day...she returned to normal...what do you mean?!" Xavier's lowered head suddenly lifted up. He recalled Joao's story again and suddenly caught a flaw that he had not noticed before.
"Perhaps the girl named Crystal died when she was born... Joao carried everyone behind his back... and forcibly reversed her fate of premature death?"
The corner of Xavier's mouth twitched. Joao's story seemed reasonable from beginning to end, but there were indeed a few places that he could blur away. That story couldn't withstand scrutiny!
"..." Isaac glanced at Xavier meaningfully, "The black contract doesn't have to be used to do bad things, right?"
"But all black contracts have to pay double the price! João was just a nephew of the city lord at that time, can he afford the price of the contract?"
Xavier shook his head in disbelief, his fingertips turned slightly white, and his breathing became heavy.
"One more thing, the Leno family has never really expressed their submission to the Mantonlong royal family. They made a small trick in the contract to express that they are willing to obey the descendants of the goddess Nuo Xi, not the Mantonlong royal family."
Isaac paused, and his expression became serious: "And the family that surrendered wholeheartedly is called Holmland."
"That is to say, what Joao Leno is trying to keep is the only descendant of the Norisin royal family. The extremely loyal Leno family made the only heir sign a black contract, paying a terrible price to the deceased
Crystal Sheen turned her fortunes around!"
Xavier's head turned rapidly, and his expression began to become strange and surprised. Joao actually hid so much, and he was almost involved!
"The fact that the black contract did not take away Leno's life immediately does not mean that the content of the contract is not life. And the Lord João may not have long left."
Isaac sighed, and he took a few steps forward, and his figure disappeared with a "bang" like black mist.
