"As for my identity, I hope you can keep it confidential."
Xavier frowned slightly. Below the Noli Canyon is the Noli Port. Looking from a distance is the mess after the high tide.
Erro and Richie exchanged glances and nodded.
The two of them were not particularly clear about how big a noble Xavier was. But since the other party had said so, they would naturally agree to this request in the name of helping him escape from the sea storm.
"So, little brother Xavier, are you..." After a moment of silence, Erro asked out of curiosity.
"Xavier, Xavier Cadance."
"The Earl of the Rose Family." Xia Sha's voice came from behind, and several people suddenly took a breath.
"You're very smart. Did you find my family crest?" Xavier turned his head and glanced at Xia Sha. The girl's eyes were as cold as ice.
"Dancer... is indeed the surname of Flame Rose, but I don't remember that the people of Flame Rose are all tall and burly, and the black hair is the symbol of the rose." Erro came next to Xavier and looked at his white porcelain face.
The delicate face said doubtfully.
"Captain Ayrault, it's very rude of you to do this."
By the way, the right turbo accelerator is broken and five of the paddle blades are broken."
"Sister Xia Sha, Your Highness, you..." Ye Luo stood in front of Xavier. It was the first time she saw Xia Sha showing such a cold expression, with a hint of anger.
"I have a rose family badge in my hand." Xia Sha took a deep breath and calmed down. She looked at Xavier and took out a rose-colored badge from the bag.
"Continue." Xavier narrowed his eyes.
"You...!" Xia Sha looked at Xavier fiercely, and suddenly her hand was empty. Fran appeared out of nowhere and snatched the badge away.
"Interesting, it is indeed the emblem of the Rose family. Silver thorn branches are wrapped around bright red rose petals, and golden-red gems are burning on it like flames. It is not a fake."
Fran put on his white gloves and looked at it carefully. He raised his hand and threw the family crest to Xavier.
"Fran, what are you doing!"
"When you question someone, you have to show the evidence to the other person, right?" Fran smiled.
Xavier caught the badge, and he knew it was real from the moment he touched it. The familiar texture, weight, and touch. It was a badge of a knight, and it was issued by the head of the family himself.
There is a silver engraving of R.V.D on the back. Richelieu.V.Dancer took office as the patriarch of the Rose Family, and this knight's badge was issued by him personally.
"It is indeed the emblem of the Rose family, but it is not the emblem of the blood family, but the emblem of knighthood." Xavier said calmly and threw the emblem back to Fran.
"Oh? Are you admitting it like this?" Fran was a little surprised. He thought that Xavier would at least defend or deny it. The other party's frankness surprised him and made him a little interested.
"The person wearing this badge killed my parents and many people in the village." Xia Sha gritted her teeth. If Richie hadn't pulled her, she might have rushed up.
"...That's right."
"The seawater intrusion brought by the extreme cold storm destroyed our village. My father was a Noli doctor, and I was studying in Xuansiti at that time. Everyone in the village finally escaped to Xuansiti for refuge.
In the spring of the second year, I plan to return to the village of Noli."
"Every year after the extreme cold storm, the big families in the Holy City will bring a large amount of supplies to Noli. Although most of them are blocked by Xuansi, this can also allow us to survive the awakening period safely."
"But that year, we waited for carriages and cargo ships from the Holy Capital. Everyone set up a banquet and waited. The soldiers stepped off the ship and took out firecrackers and swords from the cargo boxes that we thought were supplies."
"They... shot at the villagers who had no time to react. My father roared at them, but was stabbed directly in the stomach." A gentle sob came, and Richie's expression began to become solemn.
"Why didn't you tell me this?" Richie hugged Shasha tightly and said softly.
"Xuan Siti hates people from Noli. I know that. I'm afraid. I'm afraid that if you know that I'm from Noli, people from Noli won't want me..."
"How could that be?" Rich hugged her tighter, rubbing his chin gently on Xia Sha's head, slowly comforting the girl.
"..." You obviously said racial discrimination to me a few days ago! Eero tried hard to remain silent. If you say such words at this time, Richie will beat him to death!
"Do you think I have discriminated against Eero? No, right? He is one of my few close friends, and Fran..."
"I am from Xuansiti."
"Shut up." Erro glanced at Fran who looked innocent.
"They killed many people and then locked the women and children in the carriage. I escaped by hiding in the cellar of my house."
There were corpses in the whole village. Xia Sha vaguely remembered the scene of that day. Many years had passed, and the countless nightmares gradually stopped frightening her after she met Qi Qi.
"Next to my father's body, my father struggled to get this family emblem from the soldier before he died. My friend in Xuan Siti told me that this is the family emblem of the Qiangwei family."
"I have appealed again and again with no results at all, and there is even no news at all. I know that some big shot must have suppressed me. But, it was an entire village..."
"Later, a person came to me and told me not to pursue the matter any further. The Heretic Tribunal was already tracking my whereabouts, and someone above them started to notice me. What I did blocked their way."
"who is it?"
Xavier frowned. Someone actually dared to confront the Heretic Tribunal. The fact that he could get the information so quickly proved that this person also had an eye for the Heretic Tribunal.
"I don't know, that person was wrapped tightly in a cloak, but the voice was that of a man. He gave me a new identity and told me to forget the past. He asked me to go to the Xuansiti Holy See to study as a nun, and he also gave me
I got a place in Xuan Siti Academy..."
"No, damn it, you took me away! I just want to know why the Qiangwei family wanted to kill people in our village, and what exactly we did!"
"Richie, you should understand, right?" Fran walked up to Richie, his expression so solemn for the first time.
"Well, it's obvious to frame the blame. I don't know why I did this. It's too obvious. It doesn't feel like a big family. If other families want to secretly mess with the Rose family, they won't use such stupid methods.
"
Richie nodded, Xia Sha in his arms was obviously stunned.
"It's indeed strange, but..." Erro also passed by. Before he could say anything, the entire fishing boat shook.
"What's going on? It couldn't be that it ran aground! Erro, can't you sail the boat properly?" Richie looked at Erro nervously.
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"
The fishing boat began to shake violently. If it hit a rock, then countless rocks would hit the fishing boat!
"Damn it, there's something under the boat... No, if it's a worse assumption..." Erro suddenly remembered something.
"Are they pirates?" Fran also frowned.
"Everyone in the ship, come to the deck! We are the guards of Luke Mulholland, please accept the investigation!"
