Chapter 51: The King Who Died Violently
"What happened after I killed Nidhogg?" Regner asked.
"......" Alexander was silent for a moment and said, "It's nothing, you fell unconscious after killing Nidhogg, and then the Soul Wrath used teleportation to bring you all back." ”
"Teleportation?" Regner was stunned.
"A type of shadow magic. Alexander shrugged: "In addition to being an assassin, the soul is also interested in some shadow magic. ”
"It's a pity for his two older brothers. Regner sighed, the two guys were killed by Nidhogg in seconds just after they made a move, if the three of their brothers were all dual cultivation of war techniques, they could be regarded as three talents.
Alexander didn't speak, he didn't tell Regner, in fact, Ralvin lied to him, the so-called punishment of the gods, the heart, and the soul were not actually three brothers at all, but just one person. The God and the Heart are nothing more than shadow clones created by the soul using shadow magic, which is a secret technique unique to the Hawke Empire's court supervision office.
Of course, in fact, it didn't matter to Regner what the soul was, and Alexander hid it, not to mention...... Alexander hid too much.
"Speaking of which, how long have I been in a coma. Regner asked again.
"Five days, five days since the day you assassinated Nidhogg. Alexander replied.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense with him, we should go. "Joffrey didn't seem to want to stay in this cell any longer.
"Well, sorry, there's been a lot of work to take care of lately. Alexander also bowed his head slightly and apologized, apparently planning to leave.
"I was released after three days. Regner waved impatiently for them to get out. It's just that what makes Regner a little incomprehensible is that since when did the relationship between Alexander and Joffrey actually become harmonious?
But for the previous problems of these two brothers, Regner has never been too lazy to think about it, anyway, he has already made a plan, and when he is released, then he will leave the Hawke Empire with Anne Lot, of course, he will definitely extort a sum of money from Ralvin before leaving. Then, as agreed with Annelot, they went to the dark region to find Marolit's traces.
As for after finding it...... Lying on the bed in his cell, Regner wondered what he would do when he found it, and what would he do. As for the question of where to stay, Regner almost involuntarily thought about going home.
In fact, everyone has a different definition of home, and in Regner's view, home may not be very luxurious, but it must be very accustomed to living, where is the bedroom, where is the living room, and the living room has a few tables. And more importantly, there should be people in the family, people who you are familiar with and like. Thus, the home defined by Regner was neither the hungry slum of Melindel, nor the great mansion that the empire now allotted to him. The former can't keep up with the material life, and the latter has too many intrigues in his life, and the spiritual life can't keep up.
In the end, Regner himself came to a conclusion that surprised him: the ideal home in his heart was the Bright Star Tavern in Meteor City. It was where it all began, and where he gained so many cherished people: Annelot, Cordak, Vera. If you go back there at this time, and there are more Erin and Innilies, what kind of beautiful scene will it be?
Regner couldn't help but grin at the thought of this. It's good, the rest of my life is so decided, find Malloret, and then return to Falling Star City, buy the tavern, Anne Lot as the hostess, Irene as the beautiful chef, Enerys as the head maid, and enjoy the envious and jealous eyes of the single dog customers when they see their top match in the harem. Usually sit together and drink and brag with Kordak, and occasionally when you are bored, you can go out and be a mercenary, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. Fuck, life ahead isn't too pretty!
Regner grinned and fell asleep, when another visitor suddenly arrived that night.
"Miss, you are not allowed to go in. Ragner heard the voice of the jailer outside, and as an Assassin, Ragner was on his toes even when he slept.
"Get out of the way!" Regner was a little surprised to hear this voice, he knew who it was, but why did she come so late?
"This is the will of His Royal Highness the Prince. "The jailer is still holding on.
Then Regner heard the sound of the sword drawn and the sword dancing, and after a few seconds, the man continued: "Don't force me to be strong, you should know that you are no match for me at all. With my status, even if I kill you, it's not a big deal. ”
"Yes......" The jailer finally gave in.
"Also, don't tell me about it, or I'll kill you too. The man then withdrew his weapon.
The door was pushed open without accident, and Regner couldn't help but smile when he saw that the person was wearing a hood and almost his whole body was wrapped in shadows: "You girl, why did you come to see me with such a tight bag?"
"Are you still in the mood to laugh?" the visitor pulled down his hood, revealing soft pink hair, "Do you know you're in trouble now?"
"Me?" said Regner, looking at his shackles, with a wry smile and sarcasm, "what can I do now? Alexander, that dog, just locked me up here, saying he would release me in two days." I said you have to take care of him in the future, or he won't know when he'll climb on top of you. ”
"Listen, it's not as simple as you think. Lisanna, apparently not having the time to joke with Regner, stared at Regner for a moment, then said, "Look at you, you don't seem to know anything?"
"Know, what do you know?" Regner was stunned, he had never seen such a serious Lisanna.
"His Majesty Ralvin is dead. Lishana whispered.
"What did you say?!" Regner's pupils shrank, and his voice trembled as he asked, "Dead, how did you die?"
"I don't know, I heard that we died suddenly on the night of our assassination. There was a hint of sadness in Lisanna's eyes as she spoke, and it was clear that although she was not familiar with Ralvin, she had decided to value her future father-in-law.
"Sudden death?!" Regner was shocked, and he thought of the spell cast by Nidhogg when he was dying. Could it be that Radwin's death was the result of Niederhogg's spelling? But what's the point? Nieldhogg always said before he died that he did all this against himself, but what does Ralvin's death have to do with him? After all, Ralvin is not his father, or is Ragnar Ralvin's illegitimate son? This is too bloody!
Regner pondered in silence for a while, and finally decided to hide the Nidhogg affair first, but then asked, "What else?"
"And ......," Lisana hesitated, and she said, "You make sure you stay calm." ”
"Okay. Regner took a deep breath to calm his emotions, he had a vague premonition, but he couldn't figure out what could go wrong.
"Annie, Erin, and Ini......," Lisana said, "they've all been placed under house arrest by Joffrey at the First Academy of Magic." ”
"Joffrey, bastard!" Regner gritted his teeth, but he tried to calm down anyway. He also understands now that impulsiveness doesn't work. He asked in a low voice, "Why are they under house arrest?"
"It's said that they're a little unhappy about your captivity. Lisanna replied, "I'm sorry, I woke up three days ago, and a lot of things have happened since I woke up, and I still can't find a clue." But I feel that all this may not work against you, so I wanted to come and warn you in advance. ”
"Thank you. Regner thanked him earnestly, and to be honest, if there was anyone in their group of young people who was very kind to Ragnar, it would be Lisanna. The young girl saved Regner several times with her instincts and kindness.
"Now, what else can I do to help you?" Although Lishana brought this information to Regner, she had no way to judge the situation, and only Regner could make a decision at this time.
"If possible, can you find a way to let me out?" asked Regner faintly.
