Chapter 16: The Ambition of Rozvall (Part 1)
"What is the relationship between Emilia and Shatilla?"
"It's not very clear what to do, but I speculate that it may be something similar to reincarnation! It may be more complicated......" Betty tried her best to answer Arashi's inquiry, "When I was created by my mother, the voice of the witch was already heard on the mainland. In order to protect my brother and me, my mother has always reduced our exposure to the world.www.biquge.info Occasionally, he would take us to a witch's tea party. ”
"At the tea party, Shatila and I have only met twice, and we don't know her very well. I only remember what my mother said about her: a ridiculous half-elf witch who longs for love and care. ”
"Is that so?" Arashi pondered the meaning behind the sentence and continued to ask, "How did your brother meet Emilia?" ”
"I asked if my brother seemed to be badly injured after the fight to cover my escape. When he woke up, he had no memory of the past, just wandering between the continents day by day, until he met Emilia, who lived alone in the village...... "Raising the teacup and tasting it, Betty's faint narration recounted the people and events that had happened in the past four hundred years, which made Arashi also have a sense of vicissitudes.
"Living alone?village?Emilia?" Arashi grabbed a few key words in Betty's statement.
"Yes. Betty nodded, also with a puzzled expression, "According to my brother, it was the regional damage caused by the magic rampage, and Emilia was the only one living in the entire frozen village. ”
As far back as Emilia remembers a hundred years ago, a group of strange men in black invaded the village when she was 17 years old. Everyone fought to protect the village, and quite a few people must have died at that time, and she couldn't remember what happened next...... When she woke up, the whole village was frozen in icicles. ”
"Did the attackers do it?" Arashi speculated.
"I don't know, but it would take a lot of effort to create such a regional freezing effect, even if there is a lot of magic like Rozval. Betty sighed heavily, "I really can't figure out what kind of person has such abilities. ”
"Since Emilia has an unknown connection to Sattilla, is it possible that she did it herself?" Arashi said the possibility, and if he remembered correctly, Emilia had always been useful with ice magic.
"It's not impossible, but these things can be put to a later date. Betty raised her little hand and made a 'listen to me' gesture.
"I don't know where Rozval found Emilia, but since she appeared, there has been a passage in my Gospel that the Child of Destiny will appear with the Maiden. ”
"Destiny's Child?" Arashi felt a sense of irony when she heard the words from Betty's mouth again, "Is this the person your mother told you four hundred years ago that told you to wait for the appearance of the Promised Child?"
"Yes. Betty replied cleanly.
"Then I can understand that your mother had anticipated the current situation four hundred years ago, so she made such a pact with you. Arashi blinked twice, always feeling that Agidonna was behind the scenes.
Betty sneered, and said, "I said that my mother possesses wisdom beyond the reach of ordinary people, not to mention that she still has the 'Book of Wisdom' in her hand, and it is not an exaggeration to call that book 'the memory of the world' to some extent. ”
"Okay, you go ahead. For this mother-lover, Lan had to spread his hands to show that he had fully understood the high IQ of Ai Ji Donna.
"You know the rest of the story. Betty said this, and the daylight on the horizon was getting brighter, shining on her delicate and lovely features.
"Hey, I know what it means, I don't understand it at all. Lan didn't deliberately pretend not to know, he was really confused, and it hadn't been a month since he came to this other world.
"Half a year ago, Luganica's royal family passed away. Betty rolled her eyes and said helplessly: "In order to obtain the 'dragon's blood' that can grant any wish, Rozval recommended Emilia to participate in the king's election, hoping that she can become the king of this country guarded by dragons. And in order to lure out the Children of Destiny, Rozval arranged for a killer to steal Emilia's badge in the royal capital. ”
"Gut hunter - Elsa??" Arashi's mind flashed through the name.
"Is that the name of the person who attacked you?" said Betty, with a mocking smile on her lips.
"So the demonic beast envoy of Alam Village?" Lan didn't just want to complain about the mood of this pair of evil masters and apprentices, he really controlled people as monkeys.
"Well, it should be the clown's handiwork. Betty waved her hand, indicating that none of this mattered, "He did all this to elicit the real child of destiny, after all, our books do not record his specific identity, everything can only rely on his own speculation." ”
"So he chose the Pleiades of the Moon?" Arashi couldn't help but think of Rozval's unusual care for the Pleiades of the Moon.
"Yes. Betty nodded nonchalantly.
"But you think that person is me, so you chose to come to the royal capital with me. Lan couldn't help but look at each other curiously.
"Nope. Betty shook her head, "I don't know if you're that person, but Mother wants to see you." Pointing upstairs, "After you appeared, Mother gave me a clear metaphor in the Gospels for me to find a way to create a situation where she met you alone. ”
"People in the city really know how to play. Arashi stretched, his tone indescribably sarcastic, he knew why he always saw Betty's room first every time he opened the door.
Betty chose to remain silent about this, and just took a sip of her tea, "What about you?" ”
"Ask you a place, Dream City, do you know where it is?"
"City of Dreams?!" Betty looked at Arashi suspiciously, even if it was the first time she had heard of this place.
"Well, your mother asked me to be there for the next meeting. She has something in her hand that I have to get anyway. In the second half of the sentence, Arashi stuck out her tongue and licked her upper lip, her tone slightly excited.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know the City of Dreams. In Arashi's surprised gaze, Betty shook her head, "But since it was your mother who invited you, the so-called Dream City...... There is a high probability that it is in the sanctuary. ”
"Sanctuary?!"
"Well, above the territory of Rozval, my mother's body rests there. At the end, Betty let out a long sigh.
Seeing her appearance, Lan thought for a while and asked, "Do I want to take you there?"
"No, I'm not sure if my mother wants to see me. Betty lowered her head, her stubborn little head slightly revealing the spiral hair ring at the top.
Arashi didn't know what to do with her reaction. I had to complain in my heart: No matter what your mother is doing so much, you can see it if you want to. I haven't heard that my daughter wants to see her mother, and she still needs to make an appointment in advance......
The atmosphere between the two fell silent all of a sudden, as if Betty had no intention of continuing the conversation because of what she had said before, and just took a sip of tea.
Just when Lan was not sure whether he should get up and brush his teeth and wash his face, there was a shout from the disciple Ronnie in front of the door.
"Teacher, teacher, no...... Oh no......"
This stupid boy, Lan walked to the sliding door and shouted outside, "What are you yelling about in the morning, you idiot." ”
"Teacher...... Teacher......" Ronnie, who ran to Arashi, held his knees with his hands and gasped, "We...... We are ...... Complained about ......"
"Ha ――――――――"
