Chapter 115: The Witch
With that, Artur left the cell with brisk steps.
Remilia, who heard the sound of the door closing, asked indistinctly:
"Fran, the bastard is rolling?"
"Yes, sister. β
"Then ...... Let me go?"
"Sister, are you healed?"
"Well, soon, after all, I'm in good health. β
"That's good. β
That said, Flandrew didn't let go of Remilia. She hugged Remilia tightly and bowed her head deeply, her blonde hair obscuring her expression. Remilia thought it was her sister who was sad, so she kept patting Flandrol's back with her hand in an awkward position. However, the expression on the little girl's face had nothing to do with sadness, her fangs bared, her muscles bulged, and her burgundy eyes were full of mad rage.
She saw it, though only for a moment, a glimpse, but she still saw it. The bright red palm print on her sister's face, Remilia's slurred speech was due to her teeth knocked out. Her parents are gone, her sister is her only remaining relative, and her sister's injury makes Flandorow feel an explosive pain in her heart, and her whole body is rushing to her brain, dizzy and swollen as if drunk, and the world is blurred in her eyes. Artur thought that Flandoro bowed her head because she was afraid of him, but this was not the case. Flandoro just needed to use all her willpower to control herself and avoid screaming at him, she knew that she was not Artur's opponent at this time, and acting rashly would not only hurt herself, but also her sister.
Flandoro didn't know why she was like this, she was the one who had always been calm among the sisters, but she was surprised to feel that if she could let her anger out and fall into madness, she would be very happy, very happy.
Perhaps...... Not bad too?
It's just that if she can, she doesn't want her sister to see herself like this, it will scare her.
"Fran Flan sister is really fine, you have to believe your sister, and your sister won't lie to you......"
Although being held hard by her sister did not make Remilia feel uncomfortable, she was more worried about Flandrolw's condition. It's a pity that Flandorow is controlling herself and relieving her mood at this time, and she still doesn't make any moves.
Until the voice of the uninvited guest is heard in this cell where no one else will theoretically be heard.
"I thought I was late, but the last descendants of the TepeΕ‘ family are still alive, and I am lucky...... Ahem, ahem. β
Remilia snapped free of Flandrew's embrace, and she stood in front of her sister to protect her, looking at the comer. It was a woman in a long black trench coat and a topper hat of the same color, with gold and silver ornaments shaped into the symbols of the sun and the moon. The visitor looked to be a human woman of about twenty years of age, with a pale face, calm eyes, and dark circles under her eyes that had stayed up too late, and looked sickly, but this weakness added to her endearing temperament, especially against the beautiful face of her owner, who was still able to see her beauty in taking care of it.
"Who are you, and how did you get in?"
Remilia is still wary, and in the most vulnerable time she has ever been, she is full of insecurity about her surroundings.
The woman, however, was not annoyed, she took off her top hat and laid it on the table, pulled her long purple hair out of her trench coat, and motioned her fingers to call for the chair beside her, and then sat down unceremoniously, looking back and forth at the young sisters in front of her.
"I'm Pache Norreki, a human magician just one step away from the Worm Rite. As for how I got in, I have no comment. β
Pache Norregi's arrogant attitude upset Remilia, but the situation is stronger than people, and this human magic allows the two sisters to sneak in alone and take the two sisters out without realizing it, which is a desperate hope for the Scarlet sisters.
So Remilia just stabbed lukewarmly: "Oh, I saw that you were dressed in black, and I thought you were a widow from somewhere, but I didn't expect it to be a magician." β
"My life's pursuit is only magic, I don't have a sweetheart, I haven't been married, and I'm naturally not a widow, coughing and wearing black just because black is hidden and dirt-resistant. β
"And why did this asthma magician go to great lengths to find us?"
"First of all, I'm not looking for you, ahem, but the descendants of the ChΓ©pes, but it just so happens that you're the only ones left. β
If it weren't for her own request, Remilia would have slammed her fist into the face of the sickly grimace who couldn't speak.
"Secondly, I have come to seek a legend. β
"Legends?"
Remilia frowned suspiciously.
"Ahem, yes, ahem, ahem, it is rumored that Vlad III prayed to the gods in order to gain the power to take revenge on the Ottoman Empire, only to be deceived by a demon disguised as a god. I wonder if this rumor is true that the demon gave Grand Duke Tepesz the dark power to control the dead and blood, truly incarnating him as a red dragon, and at the same time taking away his reason and wisdom and turning him into a tyrant who indiscriminately incurs destruction, and thus gave birth to your bloods. β
The voice of the magician was soft and pleasant, and Remilia had no idea whether this legend was true or not, she had never heard of it, but it was a lifesaver for her sister, anyway, she would flicker before thinking about anything else.
"And then, what's in it for us?"
"I just want to verify one thing, and I don't need the power of the demon itself. If the rumors are true, I can help you summon that demon unconditionally. β
"What are we summoning demons for?"
"If Grand Duke Tepes can gain the power to subvert the state as a mortal, then you, as his direct descendants, can also replicate the success of your ancestors. β
Pache Norreki rubbed her eyes wearily, a gesture she made like a lazy cat, very cute.
"Gain the power of revenge. β
Remilia's gaze sharpened.
"Okay, I promise ......" "I have seen this legend in the collection of the clan, and it is true. β
Flandrew abruptly pushed away Remilia, who was standing in front of her, and met Pache Noregi's eyes. The temperaments of the two are quite similar, and both reveal a subtle tiredness, except that Flandrew is really exhausted and tired, and Pache is just an innate slack at work, and nothing but magic makes her tired.
"The demon is called a demon because it is fair and cruel. It gave the ancestor the power to protect the country, but it robbed him of his reason to protect the people, until in the end, the ancestor almost destroyed the enemy country and our country, complaining, and the people were not able to survive, but were torn by his own subordinates. Making a deal with a demon will never end well. β
