"Yes, but he must have been in power for a few years at that time." Dorian turned his gaze to the dim gas lamp and gave an answer thoughtfully, "At that time, several of our ancestors thought that the curse was about to expire soon.
Here we are, after some tribesmen were successfully promoted to Sequence 6, the Elders Council discussed for a long time and finally made a decision to gather the tribesmen and prepare for rebirth."
"But more than a thousand years have caused the Presbyterian Church to lose its influence on most of the tribe. However, we still worked hard to gather some people and cultivated three or four Sequence 5 'travelers'. Among them, there is already a magic potion about to be
For tribesmen who have completed digestion, based on the accumulation of the Abraham family at that time, as long as the digestion is completed, the ritual of the Sequence 4 "Mystic Mage" can be easily solved.
But before we could wait for this moment to arrive, the curse once again regained its former intensity. During a full moon, all clansmen who exceeded Sequence 7 all died miserably. At the same time, many sealed objects lost their owners, and their negative effects broke out, attracting Seven
The attention of the Great Church and the Four Kingdoms has caused more people to choose ordinary lives and no longer try to become extraordinary.
Until more than ten years ago, the Presbyterian Church spent a lot of energy to regroup some of the tribesmen and began to avoid the curse through the 'master-apprentice system', but in the end..."
Having said this, Dorian withdrew his gaze and looked at Forsi. Now she is undoubtedly Abraham's new hope. Maybe we shouldn't have trained so many people back then, and we only need to choose a few appropriate ones, or train them from an early age to win the championship.
With the surname Abraham.
While Forsi was lamenting Abraham's tragic experience, he remembered something. Russell's diary mentioned Mr. "Gate", and Mr. "Gate" was probably the source of Abraham's curse. This
Does it also mean that the weakening of the curse is related to Emperor Russell?
But she obviously couldn't mention it to the teacher. She planned to report the matter to Mr. Fool after talking to the teacher, as a small reward for her previous help.
Just when the exchange between the two ended and Forsi was about to leave, Dorian suddenly stopped her, whose hand was already on the door handle. She turned to look at her teacher, looking at his slightly troubled expression, and said doubtfully
:
"Teacher, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, you go first!"
Dorian waved his hand, and even if Foer wanted to ask again, he shook his head firmly and refused, and only let out a long sigh after he left.
Just now he wanted Forsi to help him collect some information about Princess Delina who was about to marry Crown Prince Ma Xi. He knew that his student had several good aristocratic friends and had resources in this area.
.But he gave up in the end, which might involve his students in Tamara's plan and put her in danger.
…
West District, 45 Gatton Street.
After listening to Alicia's report about Ma Xi, Rawls nodded slightly. Although he had a clone, Edward Lai, to take care of him, there were many things he couldn't do due to his identity. Especially at the wedding where there was only one person.
During this period of many weeks, he not only had to receive relevant etiquette training, but also met many members of the Gonzalez family and nobles from various countries who had arrived in Winston.
And for the safety of his wedding, he also sent Alicia and some Tamara people to Winston to make corresponding preparations there. After all, compared to Loen, there are Celtic and MI9.
As for Ma Xi, neither the military nor the intelligence agencies are something that a new crown prince can interfere with.
What's more, his aunt has not yet given up, and is constantly stumbling upon him to win over the nobles. The scholar's progress has been thwarted, and the digestion of the "fallen Earl" has also stagnated a lot.
However, his grandfather Orff had decided to announce his abdication at his wedding, which meant that Rawls would become the king of the Kingdom of Marseille on the wedding day, and the knowledge that attended the wedding taught Pope Albert Mendo
Sa will directly crown him.
Rawls was not surprised. He had long been aware of his grandfather's thoughts. On the one hand, as an ordinary person, he was really approaching the end of his life, and now he had to rely on taking potion once a week; on the other hand, he was really approaching the end of his life.
He also realized that his youngest daughter and his grandson had started fighting, and wanted to end the situation as soon as possible.
This is why Rawls chose to back down from some of his aunt's actions. He did have a friendship in his heart for his grandfather. As long as he was not busy with other things, he would realize it when Edward got along with his grandfather Orff.
Coming to Edward, this also made his grandfather aware of the differences between the two, but the two already had a certain tacit understanding.
"If the Abrahams are willing to do it, let them do it."
As his own situation changed, Rawls no longer paid so much attention to the Abraham family. Just like after having Celt, he no longer cared about how far Hugh could go in MI9. At first, he hoped
With the help of Xio's connections and intelligence in the East District, she was able to better digest the "Savage" potion. Later, she was able to stabilize the identity of the "Emperor" as a high-ranking member of MI9. But now there are very few areas where she can exert herself.
Dorian and Verdu Garcia must have noticed it and came up with this method. Rawls also let them go. If it succeeds, the effect should be good.
After the report was over, Rawls pinched his temples, suddenly looked up at Alicia, thought for a moment and then said with a smile:
"I'm not hurt."
Alicia, who had black hair and gray eyes, and a much richer facial expression than when they first met, curled up the corners of her mouth and disappeared into the air.
Rolls, who felt her moving away quickly, smiled and shook his head, knowing that he was right. Alicia thought that he had solved Mr. X of the Aurora Society, otherwise she would not have agreed to send Dorian back.
He got up and walked out of the bedroom. He saw the valet standing outside the door and shouted:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Have someone prepare the carriage. I'm going to Uncle Robert's house. Prepare a suitable set of clothes for me. Don't let my uncle raise any issues."
Morris bowed slightly, turned around and went downstairs.
…
Edmund Robert was a good friend of Rawls's father Mason, but he did not live in the West End. Instead, he lived at the junction of Cherwood and Hillston, so that he could be closer to the Holy Wind Church and take care of both.
Law firm. But now he has completely resigned from the firm and is at home. He only occasionally goes to the firm for a walk.
According to him, everything in the firm has already entered the established track. All he needs to do is find a few suitable professional managers to take care of daily affairs. For other issues, with the blessing of Viscount Rolls-Drian,
Many will be solved. As for some thorny issues, we can only rely on Rawls himself.
As the carriage slowly drove to Edmund Robert's house, Rawls got out of the carriage and said to his personal servant Morris while arranging his clothes:
"Are you sure there's nothing wrong with my clothes?"
"No, sir, it suits your status very well."
Morris smiled and replied that the valet was responsible for the master's clothing. But unless it was an important banquet, his master rarely paid attention to this aspect, even when meeting little Duke Negan.
They would not take into account that he is already Viscount Derrian. Like today, it is even rarer.
However, Mr. Edmund Robert was both Rawls' etiquette teacher and his important elder. To a certain extent, he was almost equivalent to Rawls's godfather.
"That's good."
Rawls didn't want to make Uncle Robert angry today, otherwise he would fail to achieve his goal. He motioned for Morris to come forward and ring the doorbell, and he waited with a smile.
The door was opened, and a middle-aged lady wearing a black and white intertwined but different from a maid's dress came out. After seeing Rawls, she smiled and greeted:
"Good morning, Mr. Adrian."
"According to my uncle's request, you should call me Viscount Derrian, Lady Scaroline." Rawls replied with a deliberately straight face.
Scaroline is the housekeeper in Edmund Robert's family.
"Then according to Mr. Robert's teachings to you, before you come to visit, you should first send a servant to ask if Mr. Robert is at home?"
Scaroline, who had been the housekeeper of Edmund Robert's family for almost ten years, was naturally very familiar with Rawls. When she saw Rawls' face stiffening, she smiled and got out of the way.
After Rawls glared at Morris, he walked in and followed Scaroline to the garden. He saw Edmund playing Intis chess with the butler, using the "white pawn" to eat the "black pawn" diagonally.
.
When Edmund saw Rawls, he showed a smile at first, and then disappeared. After glancing up and down, he didn't notice the problem with his clothes. He was about to nod with satisfaction when he suddenly remembered that Rawls didn't send someone to ask in advance, so he kept a straight face.
road:
"Why didn't someone come to inquire in advance? What if I wasn't at home?"
His series of changes in expressions made both the male and female housekeepers smile, and Rawls also leaned forward and said:
"Then I will wait until you come home."
"Is this what you do when you visit others?" Edmund's expression changed immediately.
"How is that possible? How can others compare with you?"
Even though he knew that Rawls was showing his kindness, Edmund couldn't help but smile on his face. He glanced at the two butlers, and after they stepped back with understanding, he patted Rawls on the head gently:
"Okay, sit over and play chess with me."
"no problem."
Rawls quickly stood up straight, sat across from him, and arranged the chess pieces.
…
On the outskirts of Queens, the Night Song Manor that once belonged to Prince Charlie once again welcomed a new guest. He has a square face, big eyes, and a rudimentary beard around his mouth. He is the eldest son of King George III of Loon and has the most promising future.
Prince Govington who hopes to inherit the throne.
Behind him were a man and a woman. The man looked to be in his early forties, with thin cheeks and not much beard. He always had a friendly and flattering smile on his face. He seemed to be a little hunched, and he always stared at the ground when he walked, seemingly every time.
Every step must be taken in the footsteps of Govington.
The woman has smooth blond hair, three-dimensional facial features but lacks softness, blue eyes, and a strong temperament between her eyebrows. She is more like a man, dressed as a maid.
Covington glanced at everything in the manor, feeling sincerely happy in his heart. He did not feel sad at all that his brother Charlie committed suicide in this manor. He did have a reason. He had no sympathy for this younger brother who competed with him.
He has a good impression, especially in last year's East Balam naval battle. The other party's frame-up caused him to be criticized by a bunch of military bosses and royal nobles.
But now, his younger brother still has to bear the consequences. Under the pressure of the nobles and the military, he had to "commit suicide" as the final response. Not only that, Govington also gained more after Charlie's death.
Support, and also took over some of the people who originally belonged to Charlie.
Of course he knows that among them there are likely to be people who helped Charlie frame him, but these people can wait until he inherits the throne to deal with them. Doing so now can not only enhance his own strength, but also release goodwill to the outside world. Follow him
The two people behind him are Lucerne who took the initiative to join MI9 after Charlie committed suicide, and the other is Rebel who took over from Charlie.
Govington's attitude towards these two people is to use them as they can. After all, he came to them after he gained momentum. Both his trust and closeness are limited. However, he has to admit that both of them are quite easy to use.
He can help him win over MI9, and the other one knows the people who support Charlie quite well, and has won some people over. More importantly, he also caters to him in bed.
The recent experience made Govington really feel that he was in a dream. If it was true, then he would be willing not to wake up, but the news brought by Lucerne made him feel that this was not a dream according to his wishes.
"Rebel, go and get some of the things Charlie has hidden in this manor."
After sending Rebel away as usual, Govington continued to move forward with Lucerne.
But he didn't notice that Lucerne and Rebel looked at each other after he said those words. Perhaps, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Lucerne looked at Govington's back, his eyelids drooped, making his already small eyes even smaller. He followed behind in silence, with the woman named Rebel in his mind.
Of course, he didn't have any thoughts about this woman, but he noticed something special about her.
As a senior "lawyer", Lucerne naturally has a certain degree of confidence in conversation, but Rebel is obviously more powerful than him, and her guidance to Govington is more in-depth and faster. She seems to know the eldest prince better than him himself.
Every word and action can elicit feedback from Govington.
He knew that he had not met an Extraordinary with the same path. This was not a "lawyer" ability, but more like the "audience" path mastered by the "Psychological Alchemy Club" in his information. But Govington did not give him a chance to distinguish.
The exchange between the two so far has not been more than five sentences, they just briefly introduced themselves.
