Chapter 57 [The Wealthiest Widow in the Empire]

Chapter 57 [The Wealthiest Widow in the Empire]

Dewey pondered a little.

This Marquis Lester, Dewey, has heard of it. This Marquis is not a hereditary title, but a lifelong title. Such titles shall be reserved for the life of the person and shall not be inherited by the latter.

This Marquise Lester, originally a widow, was the husband of the Empire's current emperor Augustine VI's uncle, a Duke. However, it is not surprising that the Duke was ten years younger than His Majesty the Emperor in a vast royal family.

Mrs. Lister, from a family of famous maritime trading giants of the Empire, was born beautiful as a flower, married to Her Majesty's uncle at the age of fifteen, Duchess in his forties. Unfortunately, when she was 22, she became a widow.

The Duke was too weak and benevolent before the age of fifty. After the death of the Duke, His Majesty the Emperor granted this poor widow the title of court… the Marquis. According to the Imperial Decree, this lifelong title cannot be inherited hereafter.

Since then, there have been rumours that His Majesty Emperor Augustine VI has a somewhat disguised mind about this beautiful young aunt. A few years ago, when this rumor got worse and worse,

As a result, the 30-year-old Marquise moved out of Didu, where she lived alone in an ancestral home in Northern Irenqing Province to avoid the disturbing rumors of Didu.

After becoming a widow, the Marquise regained her maiden name, Lester. And this Marquise of Lester is also quite famous in the aristocratic circle of the Empire!

Though she could not inherit the title of the dead Duke, the dead Duke had no children, but left a great deal of her inheritance to her young wife. And Mrs. Lester's father, the giant merchant in the maritime trade, left her daughter with an amazing fortune!

Even in the aristocratic circle, there is a less elegant nickname for this lady: the richest widow in the empire.

That's all Dewey knows about Marquise Lester.

“Oh, Marquise Lester. I've heard the lady's name.” Dewey tried to kiss as casually as she could, "he asked.“ If I may take the liberty of asking, dear Marquis, what is wrong with her? ”

Speaking of this issue, Dardanelle and others immediately gave an outrageous expression, speaking of Dardanelle: “Alas, this matter is a disgrace to the Leicester family! ”

Nevertheless, he told the truth.

Now the 33-year-old Marquise, as if a bright woman were extraordinarily green, gave her unimaginable youth beauty. Though Dewey had never met the lady, she had heard of her fame.

Legend has it that this Marquise has a delicate skin that is unrivalled by a teenage girl, her skin is as delicate and smooth as milk, her eyes are as beautiful as sapphire, her hair is as glaring as the golden sun shines down the river in the summer canal... it seems that the years cannot leave any marks on her body!

A woman like this, in the Emperor's time, had been obsessed with a large group of nobles, no wonder even His Majesty the Emperor was so hard on her.

The Marquise, who had returned to her hometown to escape the scandal, was still unable to escape the troubles brought to her by Red Face. Just two months ago, the Marquise met a protégé while trampling the countryside with her followers, as usual.

To be precise... the Dentsu is an old bastard!

According to Dardanelle, the old man was wearing a green robe with a green flute in his hand. As soon as he saw the Marquis, he glanced at her and came forward to tangle, not only to praise the beauty of the Marquis in very light words, but also to make sure to play a song for the Marquis.

At the time, this evil behavior made the Marquise's entourage angry. In their hearts, the beautiful Marquise was as noble as a goddess...

“If it weren't for the old man's robe style, some of it would be like a magician... we'd throw that old bastard in the river this morning!” Dardanelle cursed.

“Magician?” Dewey frowned.

“No, I don't think he's a magician.” Da Daniel shook his head: “The robe looks very similar. But I've never seen a magician in a green robe. Mr. Harry Potter, you are a magician… What level of magician in the Magic Union is wearing a green robe? I don't think so. ”

After a pause, Dadaniel continued to explain: "We weren't afraid to lecture that guy because we suspected him of being a magician. It's really madam she's kind. You know, that day with the Lady, there was a holy knight from the Temple of Light, a true knight, Lord Gophert! Lord Goffitt is a great knight, martial arts are well known in the Emperor. That time, in gratitude to the Marquis for her enormous donation to the temple, she came to thank on behalf of the temple. With Lord Gophert around, let alone the fake magician, even a true magician, Lord Gophert can clean it up. ”

Dewey didn't say anything about that.

The Great Knight, already the top of the Knight Circle, is also the Holy Knight of the Temple of Light! Dewey knows that the holy knights of the Temple of Light are better than ordinary knights. Because the weapons and equipment on the holy knights are carried by the divine arts of the Light System and have some special potency. Even some advanced divine knights can use some magic!

A great knight, also a high divine knight, has a chance of winning against the last ordinary magician.

“The Marquise is kind, not hard on the guy, but the guy is repeatedly involved... as a result...”

It turns out to be simple.

That Gophert, obviously also a proud guy, as a knight, saw under his own eyes a beautiful noble lady being molested, and of course his knightly spirit would have to be put to good use.

As a result, Mr. Knight “taught” the fake magician in the green robe.

Only according to Dardanelle's description, it seems that the knight did not take advantage. Because the fake magician escaped quickly.

However, when he left, the impersonating magician, who could not make a fool of himself, threw away a harsh sentence: "You have offended me and you have no good result. Wait for my curse! You're beautiful, but I'll let your beauty solidify forever... like a rock! ”

Speaking of which, Dardanelle's face was dark: "The guy, though not much like a magician, his curse seems to be true. ”

Three days later, the Marquise was ill. Some of her skin began to harden, a little petrified! First a small part, then spread...

The Lesters panicked, searched all the doctors, and finally, with the answer of a magic pharmacist, found hope: it could be a petrochemical curse. Not just petrochemical technique, not even magicians can lift it.

To lift this curse, unless it is imposed personally. Or...

“Alternatively, it should also be useful to go to the frozen forest and find a warcraft called the Golden Eyed Python and take its eyeballs back.” Dardanelle's face is absolute: “The Marquise is the goddess of the Lester family! Every honorable knight of the Marquis is willing to die for her! So here we are. ”

Dewey sighed, but his heart wasn't as calm as it seemed!

Curse technique? Curse technique?!

Looks like this Dardanelle really doesn't know much about magic!

The guy in the green robe, he must be a magician! And a terrific magician!

Cursing is a very deep spell in magic! Even some advanced magicians will never learn!

Dewey thought about it, looked around, and the old magician didn't know where he was going. But Dewey believes he'll probably get caught if he wants to go home.

Because the old man said before he left, he'd come back for himself! Then don't try to run away...

“All right.” Dewey sighed: "I'm just about to take a look around in the ice-covered forest, so why don't you join me? Maybe I can help. ”

He said that in his mouth, but he was thinking, “That old man must be looking at me in the dark. With him, there's no danger if he wants to come. ”

# 8226;

Dewey tested the drug on Dardanelle, and soon, under the instigation of the magic potion, the wound muscles on Dardanelle's leg began to heal, and the appearance of the granulation creep growing in the naked eye was astonishing.

But the Machete Warrior was less fortunate, and the venom of the Deceased Monster could only be purged from the Temple with light magic, so after some discussion, it was decided that Dardanelle alone and Dewey would continue their search for the golden-eyed python in the woods.

And the other two wounded, they left.

Next, Dewey did something strange to the Lester family: he took an empty bottle out of his baggage and walked up to the body of the already burned Deceased Monster, carefully collecting some venom from the Deceased Monster and putting it in a bottle.

These rotten and corrosive venoms may be useful in the future, Dewey thinks.
