Throne of Magical Arcana

The night of the Passionate Moon (June) is not hot, and the cool breeze slowly brings a refreshing meaning.

But in the hall of John's house, this cool but deserted, with a bit of the cold that penetrated into the bone marrow, made me feel a deep sadness.

On the sofa made of mahogany, all four of the family seemed silent, with no feeling of communication, as if they were caught in the memories of the past.

Alyssa held a handkerchief from time to time to wipe the tears that had drowned down; Ai Wen's green face was gloomy, thinking of the hatred, her fists were clenched tightly; Joel's intact right hand held a glass of spirits, and occasionally took a sip , But this biggest hobby other than music could not make him frown a little; John's expression was quiet, neither joy nor distortion, and the glass of fine wine in his left hand was not reduced as if it were a stone statue.

"Hey, when you get old, you become soft-hearted and can't accept the passing of life. I used to have so many good friends and neighbors when I was in Adjean, but they recovered after a few days. Full of enthusiasm for life, such as when old Evans died of illness, hey. "Joel sighed sarcastically.

Adjean District is a ghetto, and there are many ordinary people at the bottom who are not able to survive. There are also many men who simply rely on their energy to support their families, so there are very many people who ca n’t get up suddenly because they are sick. The death rate is the entire Aalto. The highest place.Joel, who came out from here, is a family accustomed to death and parting.

Alissa glared at Joel with a crying voice: "How could they be with Evansby the younger, he was so young, not even twenty-one, so talented, noble, and hard-working , Is the best and the best musician. Ooo, he has no wife and no children, so the bloodline of the Evans family is cut off. "

A few years of noble life, she spoke a lot of elegance.

"Hey, without this accident, we will be able to attend Little Evans' wedding in about half a year." Joel sighed again.The performance of Natasha at the concert, funeral, and secret dating in the middle of the night convinced him that as long as the Grand Duke did not object, the two young people who were obviously in a passionate love would definitely wait for the wedding hall.And does the Grand Duchy oppose the normal marriage of Her Royal Highness?Obviously not!

This pity made the hall silent again, and then John stood up and comforted gently: "Dad, Mom, you rest early, Lucien definitely doesn't want you to be sick because of him in Paradise Mountain."

"Well, since you said that to little John, then we will go back to sleep upstairs." Joel got up and patted John on the shoulder, sighing again.

John, who has become a jazz, is the backbone of the whole family, and his comfort is very useful, so Alisa closed her tears and told him to say: "Little John, you should rest early, do n’t squander your knight ’s body. In the dark mountains When patrolling near the fortress, be stronger and safer, where there are many evil dark creatures and magicians. "

These other noble ladies instilled in her the worries that she didn't care about originally, but this time the murder of Lucien Evans by the evil magician "Professor" made her really pay attention to this matter and worry about herself 'S elder son, near the Fortress of the Dark Mountains, is much more dangerous than Aalto.

When he heard the word magician, John's hands shook slightly, and then he hugged Alyssa: "Mom, you can rest assured, I will pay attention to myself. There are only strict requirements for yourself, no indulgence, no slouch, I can become a second-level knight, and I hope to be promoted to a great knight within ten years. Only in this way can I better fight evil and damn demons, demons and magicians. "

At the end, John couldn't help cursing.

At this time, the cool wind blowing in from the open window suddenly became much larger, whining, like countless ghosts crying and howling.Outside, it became gloomy and the moonlight disappeared. If it weren't for the dim light of a few brass candlesticks in the hall, it might be dark all around, and my fingers could not be reached.

"Who?" John sensed the smell of magical waves from the wind, and at the same time, he noticed that someone was walking slowly down the stairs, so he took a step forward, pulled out the extraordinary sword on the coffee table, and stood firmly against Joe. Earl, Alyssa and Elvin are in front of them.

Because he did not feel the intention of the other party attacking, and worried that after he stepped forward to face the battle, other enemies would be saved from other corners, so that his parents would no longer be guarded, so he chose to stand by and notify him with a loud voice. Knight servants and soldiers stationed outside.

Compared with his experienced and excellent brother, Aiwen, who had been training for knights for a few years, was very green and dazed. He didn't recover until John broke off, and it took a lot of money to find his sword. It took a long time to sweat the sword and protect the side.

The whole hall was unusually quiet. John's questioning did not provoke any reaction. Only the audible footsteps came from the stairs, pedaling, as if stepping on the hearts of the people.

Alisa pulled Joel's sleeve tightly, her face full of fear, while Joel looked worriedly at John and Elvin, both he and his wife were in their forties, and had lived a few years of aristocratic life comfortably, Even if you die, there is no regret, but the sons are still so young, there should be a better future.

"Who? Who ?!" John asked without giving up, his strong will making his mood change from nervous to calm.This is a good area in the noble area. There are many knights, big knights, and even some big nobles have sky knights. Together with the patrolling night watchmen, the longer the time is, the better for their family.

A dim candlelight appeared at the corner of the stairs, John stared at him, and suddenly blurted out:

"Lucian ?!"

Wearing a black dress, a bow tie, and holding a silver candlestick, slowly walking down the stairs turned out to be the dead Lucien Evans.

"Little Evans ?!"

"Little Evans ?!"

"Brother Lucien ?!"

Joel, Alyssa and Aiwen also saw the face of the coming person clearly. Under the candlelight, the familiar Junxiu face was quiet and heavy, and the complexion was clear but not pale, full of life.

"It's me, Uncle Joel, Aunt Elisa, John, Irwin." Lucien tried to make herself smile, which helped to ease the atmosphere, but couldn't laugh.

Alyssa exclaimed: "Little Evans, you have the permission of the Lord to come and visit us for the last time before ascending to the mountain of paradise?" She who grew up in the Principality of Waorit naturally understood everything she could not understand and explain. Everything belongs to the gods.

With excitement, she seemed to want to rush out.

"Mom, be careful, you're not Lucien! It's an evil magician who turned Lucien to play with us!" John stopped Alisa's urge.

Under Lucien's unabashed mental power, he could only barely defend.

"John, you are half right and half wrong. I am indeed Lucien Evans, but I am also a magician. I did not die, but took the opportunity to get rid of the status of musician." Lu Sean stopped on the last staircase, because Joel, Alisa, and Aven heard John ’s words, panicked, hated, and disgusted, and subconsciously stepped back, trying to distance themselves, and John was very Be vigilant and seem to be able to wield a sword at any time, so it is good for everyone to maintain a proper distance.

This perception made Lucien's mood much worse.

"Lucien is a magician, get out of fake death?" John repeated, his face full of anger: "Asshole, you damn bastard, you damn magicians, after killing Lucien, he came to slander his Reputation! He has been interrogated by the referee, and he is devoted to music. He is a pious, tenacious, tenacious, cheerful, optimistic, pure and good person. How can he be a magician ?! "

A series of adjectives established his inner image of Lucien.

Joel, who was a little hesitant and dazed, was once again infected by John's determination, staring at Lucian with hate.

John continued: "I'm a knight, don't I know that the magician has a transforming spell, what do you want to be like Lucian to discredit him for?"

"John, do you remember the discussion about knighthood and creed before we countered the Aaron gang, and remember what we said in the alleys of Adjean after defeating the Aaron gang? Words about traveling to the mainland, about kobolds , Can the Jackal eat words? "Lucian expected this to happen, and said in a hurry, no one would immediately believe that the friend he had just buried was suddenly resurrected and told himself that everything was false. , Especially this is a world with magic.

John's eyes became surprised, but he quickly said in a deep voice: "What's the use of saying these things? There are many magical methods to let you know these things from Lucien's mouth!"

Lucien has always appreciated the knight's firm will, but today it feels a headache, and the most important thing is that he does not know the bits and pieces before crossing over. If he continues to rely on the details to confirm, it is easy to "prove" that he is false. Yes, so I had to say: "John you should be very clear that these small things are difficult to ask every detail by magic means, unless it is Jiuhuan magic that invades the mind. You can ask me in any tiny place of this matter, To verify my identity. "

John's expression was dignified and a little bit struggling and disgusting, while Joel, Alisa, and Aven were hated and disgusted.

Seeing John did n’t ask, Lucien said from the beginning: "I did not learn magic after I knew the witch, so I could withstand the torture of the referee, but then Pastor Benjamin asked me and several knights to deal with the witch magic experiment. When I was in the room, I got a copy of the witch's cautious books and notes and embarked on the path of magic. "

"Uncle Joel, Aunt Alyssa, John, do you remember why I suddenly wanted to learn writing? That's because only by learning writing can you read magic notes and books!"

"John, do you know why I can discover the conspiracy of the Silver Horn? That's because I practice magic in the sewer!"

...

The details of the memories and the problems covered by the details were revealed by Lucien. The strict logic and other verifications made John's face shake strongly. He yelled in a contradiction: "Lucien, you Why should I believe it? Believe that my good friend is a magician? A magician who plays with the good people of the whole city? "

In his mind, it seemed that Lucien's image was completely destroyed.

Alisa shook her head in disbelief. The child she loves and gets along with often is the evil magician in the church propaganda, and if the fake death is true, it is really evil ...

Joel stared at Lucien ’s eyes and saw the pain in his eyes. The disgust on his face eased a little: "Little Evans, you first chose magic as a last resort, but why did you show such outstanding musical talent? Continue to pursue the path of magic? Are you so eager for power that you want to abandon the Lord? "

"Uncle Joel, that's not the case. I chase magic because I love it deeply, and I want to penetrate the reality of this world. What is our life, why can this world exist, in what form, and why is the starry sky above me so? Regular and mysterious questions and their unknown answers are the most beautiful and attractive, full of extreme charm. "Lucian answered heartily, and then looked at John," John, my fake death is because of the magician's Sooner or later, your identity will be revealed. Since that's the case, it's better to let everyone's favorite musicians live in their hearts forever. I'm sorry for what made them sad. "

"And after I became a magician, in addition to self-protection and saving people, I never actively hurt any innocent person. No matter whether you can accept my identity as a magician, I hope you can understand that I am not that kind of evil magic. Division, and most magicians in the Magic Council are not. "

John's face eased a little: "Lucien, why are you still in front of us since you are dead, don't you worry that we will betray you?"

Seeing that their emotions had eased a little, Lucien took a step forward, but John, Joel, Alisa, and Elvin all took a step back subconsciously, frightened and afraid that they still existed.

Witnessing this situation, Lucien shook her head with a wry smile: "Uncle Joel, Aunt Elisa, John, Irving, I came back to ask if you would like to follow me to the Kingdom of Holm, although there are many magic Teachers, but still have churches and nobles, it ’s just that everyone gets along peacefully, and I ’m sure that the nobles of the Kingdom of Holm will accept you. ”

"The Kingdom of Holm? The headquarters of the Magic Council? Your Royal Highness?" John seemed to think of something.

Lucien shook her head again: "This time it has nothing to do with Natasha. It was planned by my teacher 'Professor' and me. When I meet you, I will meet her and explain the facts to her and hope that Get her forgiveness. "

If Natasha is not taken out, many things will be difficult in the future.As I recalled earlier, Lucien also made a correction about the part of Natasha, and made up the character "Professor" to lie.

Then Lucian asked again: "Are you willing to follow me? No matter the status, wealth and belief, there is no need to change."

Silence, the inexplicable silence of the Joel family.

After a while, when Lucien was about to ask again, John shook his head alertly: "Lucien, I am a knight of the Principality of Vaurit, a knight of the Violet Knights, and I have a country that I guard And lord, my knightly creed prevents me from leaving this. "

Resolutely refused, with a touch of strangeness and estrangement.

Joel tried to smile and said: "Little Evans, you have not forgotten us and made me very happy. But I like Aalto, like the music capital, my friends and my family are here, I can't give up."

"Little Evans, I can hardly imagine the scene of living with the magicians. I am faithful to the Lord." Alisa refused politely, but this is also the biggest ravine.

Aiwen also shook his head without surprise.

Seeing their firm attitude, Lucian closed her eyes and sighed softly: "Okay, I get it. Uncle Joel, Aunt Alisa, John, Ivan, I hope that some time after I leave, you can Report to the referee that I am a magician. "

"What ?!" John, Joel, Alisa, and Elvin couldn't understand Lucien's thoughts and ideas at all. He even asked others to report him?!

Lucian gave a slightly sad smile: "My identity as a magician will be exposed sooner or later, and it will involve you, so it is better for you to report it. In this way, the church will not embarrass you."

After such "betrayal and betrayal", the church will definitely not think of threatening itself with the Joel family.

"You ..." John, they were shocked and speechless, to report Lucien, to report their "children", good friends, brother, how cruel?Even when they hated and hated Lucien the most, they never thought about it!

Lucian bowed deeply with her left hand on her chest: "Cruelty is also a kind of tenderness. Please allow me to say goodbye, and hope to see you again in the future."

The silent silence of Joel, John, Alisa, and Elvin seems to be resisting the magician Lucian.

Lucian grieved in his heart, turned around and walked outside, maybe there was really no chance to see you again in the future.

In a silence, Lucian was about to walk to the door, and suddenly there was an trembling voice from behind Alisa:

"Little Evans ..."

Lucien looked back in amazement and expectation.

Alisa bit her lip and said, "Be careful about what kind of magic council there, it is definitely more dangerous than Aalto's music industry."

"I will, Aunt Alisa." Lucien's eyes became a little wet.

After struggling, Joel also sighed: "I believe your heart is kind. If one day, you can't survive the Magic Council, remember, there is still a home for you."

John ’s expression was very complicated and contradictory, and his hands holding the sword were exposed, and when he saw that Lucien promised to turn around and leave, he finally blurted out: "Do n’t do bad things, do n’t let me come across when doing bad things. . "

After a pause, his voice became low: "Be careful."

Lucien suddenly laughed, smiling broadly, bowing deeply at them again, then disappeared into the darkness without looking back.
