Chapter 64: The Assassin and the Lady (I)

When Loreleia regained consciousness, she was no longer surrounded by twisted and squeezed walls, but between the bright starry sky and the ruined walls. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Nearly 100 years old, the Getler family base has been fortified countless times and no longer exists, and both above-ground buildings and underground facilities are in ruins. Fortunately, the barrier used to block the spread of sound was still working, and the fierce battle tonight did not affect the surroundings.

Silently checking her body, she didn't feel any changes, not even the dust was touched, and Loreleia couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although she shows decisiveness and bravery in front of Shinji, she is a minor girl after all, and she is inevitably a little nervous when she loses consciousness in front of an unidentified stranger.

After calming down slightly, the magic stored in the body spread to the whole body along the magic circuit, and the soreness caused by the coma quickly dissipated, and Loreleia sat up.

It was only then that she realized that there was a simple silver metal bed under her body. Rubbing her fingers against the bed board, Loreleia quickly recognized the body of the metal bed—the Moon Spirit Liquid that had been shaped by fluid manipulation and solidified by air pressure.

"I didn't expect that the ugly assassin was quite considerate, and it changed a little bit about him. ”

The corners of Lorelea's mouth crossed a slight arc, and the lofty aura eased slightly, replaced by the unique softness of a girl.

Thinking sideways, she left the metal bed, the whip outlined a spell that lifted the solidification of the moon spirit marrow, and then stood quietly by the mercury and waited.

Dozens of seconds later, a cloaked figure emerged from the mess, dragging a safe in his left hand and a handful of full-grained, pure-colored gems in his right hand, looking like an upstart.

"Yo, wake up. Good morning, miss, did you sleep well?"

This nouveau riche was naturally Shinji, and when he sensed that the solidification magic on the Moon Spirit Essence had been cracked, he knew that Loreley had woken up.

"It's ok, it's just that the bed is too hard, it's better to have a mattress. I don't know if I was in a better mood after a good night's sleep, or if I was amused by Shinji's strange shape, Loreleia didn't bother with the offense just now.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I accidentally used a little more force to tear down the house directly, and I didn't have time to grab a mattress, pay attention next time." ”

"Next time?"

Hearing Shinji's insincere apology, Loreleia's eyelids jumped, and she finally resisted the urge to complain.

"Where's Gertler?"

"It's dead, it's gone, there's not even scum left. Shen Eryi spread his hands.

Now that he has seen Shinji riding Pegasus, he must die, and he must not leave his body and soul behind, lest certain information be read by a magician who is proficient in necromancy.

"That's right," Loreleia sighed.

"What's wrong?" Shinji asked.

Loreleia asked rhetorically, "Do you know why I'm here?"

"Mediate between El Meloy and Gertler - I see. ”

Barthamero and Almeroy belong to the same aristocratic camp and are allies. But this time, the Barsermelo family, who were supposed to be on the side of Al Meloi, actually sided with the betrayer Gertler, and nine times out of ten it was Gertler who made conditions that Barthelo could not refuse.

Having figured this out, new doubts followed.

"What kind of capital can impress Barsermelo, if there is such capital, wouldn't it be better to talk directly to El Meloi?"

"Because of Gertler's conditions, the entire clock tower would only be tempted by Barsermero. "It doesn't matter if you tell you now, it's important information about Otten Roche. ”

"Whose information are you talking about?" Shinji felt that the name was a little familiar, and he couldn't remember who it was.

"For most people, the name 'White Winged Prince' is more familiar. ”

With that, Shinji knows who it is.

"White Winged Prince" Tevanmu Ottenroche, the seventeenth seat of the "Twenty-Seven Ancestors of the Dead Apostles", was transformed from a magician to a vampire. The archetypal vampire, known as the "King of the Dead Apostles" (nominal), is also the largest of the Twenty-Seven Ancestors and is one of the oldest Dead Apostles.

The entire mystical world knows that, for unknown reasons, the Barthmelo family is focused on hunting the Dead, and is especially obsessed with the White Winged Prince

"I see, no wonder you're tempted. But there's no need for you, the eldest lady, to take risks personally, if I don't have the means to break the predicament, then it's really over. ”

Shinji's very normal-sounding answer made Loreley frown and look suspicious.

"You... Is it really Elmeroy's man?"

"yes, why do you ask?" Shinji chuckled in his heart, and his tone was still flawless.

"Then you shouldn't be unaware of Barsermelo's philosophy. ”

Shinji was so choked that he couldn't speak, and could only carefully recall the setting of the poor Barsermero family and Lorelea.

For some reason, Loreleia did not delve into it, but continued to explain: "The philosophy of the Barsmero family is that 'human performance is more important than personality', so people in the family look very lightly at things like family or relatives, we only value ability, and if we want to get something, we must show the corresponding ability." ”

It doesn't sound like an aristocratic discourse to be the idea of the Barsmelo family, but with the added premise that the same status should be subordinated to those of noble blood. The people of Barthomero are convinced that only their own people have noble blood, and that the only one who can stand on their side is the embodiment of the first magic.

Therefore, Barsermelo did not care about the life or death of other nobles, and rarely interacted with other nobles, and the closest to this family was Kenneth's Archipolud family. But even so, after Kenneth's death, Barsermelo only gave minimal help to ensure that Al Meloy was not removed.

In fact, the other two factions are the same. Regardless of whether they advertise their aristocratic blood or not, magicians are more rational than emotional creatures, and as long as they have the ability, they will be reused regardless of the faction, but they are not as extreme as Barsermelo.

Under such a premise, the members of the Barsermelo family have long developed a good habit of "doing it yourself, having enough food and clothing", and it is possible to entrust inconsequential matters to others, and important matters must be done in person.

"The best way to show your abilities in Barthomero is to hunt the Dead Apostles, especially those associated with Otten Roche. Gertler happens to have information about a direct Ottenrothet Deathposter, and if I can hunt him, no one will be able to stop me from succeeding Barthomero. Almeroy, if you are a member of the Elmeloi family, how can you compensate me?"

PS: "White Wing Gong" has a large territory, but the vast majority of Dead Apostles don't care about territory, so of course he is very strong, but it is estimated that he still can't beat those real monsters, at best, he barely squeezes into the top ten of the Twenty-Seven Ancestors.
