Chapter 141: Lucia's Past Episodes
After leaving Crescent Manor, Louis was supposed to go straight back to Reynor Palace, but she didn't. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info originally planned to wait for Xuanyu and Lucia in Crescent Moon Manor, but unexpectedly, they had already arrived, so there was a lot of time to spare. Louis was going to visit the Count of Enopus's mansion, and since the last time she heard the news that her childhood sweetheart Grace was sick, she had been terrified, thinking that she would have to come to visit her when the matter was over, and this was the right time.
When I arrived at the Count of Enopus's mansion, it was already dark, but it was not too late to go to bed. Although the Earl's gate was some distance from the mansion, it was not as far as Crescent Manor. From the door, you can still see Grace's room, where the lights have not been extinguished. But Louis still did not enter as he wished, and was once again blocked by the servants at the door.
"I'm Louis Grande, Captain of the Royal Praetorian Guard. I would like to see His Excellency the Count of Enopus. ”
"I'm sorry, but the Count isn't at home. ”
"What about Grace, I heard she's sick and I want to see her. ”
"My young lady is not sick, and she is not here now. Please come back. ”
"When will I be back, I'll wait here. ”
"Captain Grande, please don't embarrass me. ”
It was clear that the servant was lying, but since he had said all that, Louis had no reason to force his way in. But she felt more and more that something was wrong. I went to the back door of the Earl's house, and tried to get the news from the maid I knew as I had done last time, but I found that the back door was locked, and no one was in or out.
This was all the more strange to Louis. She rolled her eyes, left the Earl's Court, turned left and right, and knocked on the door of Yeco's house.
"It's you again!" Apparently he hadn't rested well last night, but Ye Ke opened the door with two dark circles under his eyes, "Aren't you going to let me be quiet?"
"Isn't that ......," said Louis, looking around, "what?
Jerk raised an eyebrow and stepped back to let Louis into the room.
"What, then, is it, my captain?" said Jerk.
"I just want to know if you've gone to work at the Earl of Enops today?" said Louis.
"Of course I have to go, or how will I feed myself!" added Jerco, "and besides, I have toiled for my life. Although he said this, his tone was full of satisfaction and sweetness.
Not bothering to study Jaco's emotions, Louis then asked, "Have you seen Grace then?"
"Miss Count?" said Count, shaking her head, "I have said that she has been locked up in the room all this time, and besides, even if there is no such floor, how can I, a little seamstress, have a chance to meet Miss." ”
No one would believe that she was the most noble princess of Egrem, and this title and status were really blind to her!
While sighing, Louie's brain was also racing. Grace was suffering from some unsightly illness, and Louis was even more worried about what she had seen in the Reino Palace a few days ago, and she decided to see Grace anyway. With this decision, an idea also came to mind at the same time: "Yake, can you do me a favor?"
Ye Ke rolled his eyes and said cautiously: "It depends on whether I am capable and willing." ”
"I must have the ability, as for whether I want to......" Louis said, "I beg you, for the sake of helping you get back your grandfather's face." ”
Louie's words seemed to move Jeco, and she sighed and said, "Well, at least the mystery of the secret passage in this room has been solved!"
Louis laughed secretly in his heart, compared to his grandfather, Jecot was more concerned about the secret passage in his room, and if Jesalf IV knew about it, he would probably cry bitterly.
"What do you want me to do?" asked Jerk.
"First of all, I want to stay at your house for one night. "Louis Road.
"Scoundrel!" Louie slapped him as soon as he finished speaking. Fortunately, Louie grabbed her hand.
"Don't get excited, I want to ......" grabbed Yeco's arm with one hand, leaned into her ear, and whispered a few words, Yeco's expression changed from anger to shock, and finally left a playful smile.
In the velvety black night sky, a meteor flew by, brilliant and dazzling, only to disappear after a moment.
In the courtyard of Crescent Manor, Lucia folded her hands and looked at the sky. The stars were reflected in her green eyes like fireworks: "Good things are always very short-lived. She turned back to Xuanyu behind her and smiled slightly, "My mother used to say that, and then she disappeared like a meteor in her mouth to the edge of the world. ”
"There's a custom that says if you make a wish on a shooting star, maybe your wish will come true. Xuanyu said.
Lucia nodded, "All the girls we have there know, but I've never made any wishes like a shooting star." ”
"Why?"
"I'm different from them, I ......," Lucia said again, her expression changing slightly, her eyelashes rolling up and down, her eyes moist and without tears, "you already know where I'm from?"
"I said, I don't force you to say what you don't want to say. Xuanyu said gently.
Lucia smiled bitterly, then sighed deeply, she turned and stared straight at Xuanyu, "Can't we really be separated?"
"We cannot be separated except by death. ”
Xuanyu said it bluntly, Lucia listened to it palpitatingly, if this was said by a couple, it would not seem inappropriate, but now the situation is very different.
Lucia took a deep breath. Then he barely squeezed out a smile: "Okay, anyway, I'm going to mess with you in this life, and I don't have to hide my business." ”
Xuanyu's eyes wandered, and then he chuckled: "If you say it, I will listen to it." With that, he found a stone staircase and sat down.
"My full name is Lucia Pres. ”
"Pres are a famous family of witches. Xuanyu added.
"You know a lot. Lucia said, "My hometown is thousands of miles away on the island of Rihuan, which is a place that is sealed away from the outside world all day long. "Legend has it that a thousand years ago, a human fell in love with a god and gave birth to a child, who inherited the human body and the power of the gods. He died, but his bloodline survived and flourished. ”
"That person is your ancestor?" Xuanyu said.
Lucia nodded: "Our spiritual power is all transformed from daylight, so we are called the Light Clan." Past patriarchs have been outstanding figures, and even their souls can ascend to the heavenly realm and listen to the prophecies of the gods. ”
As she spoke, Lucia paused, "That's how my mother is. ”
"But she's gone......" Xuanyu said.
"I was only five years old that year, and I was the most powerful child in the clan, so I naturally became the successor of the patriarch and entered the Nine Heavenly Pavilion to cultivate. After the door of the secluded Nine Heavenly Pavilion closed behind me, there was no joy in my life, and in addition to learning all kinds of magic, I had to read and recite all kinds of demon texts by heart. Every day, I have to get up before dawn to practice, and I can't rest until late at night, and if I make a slight mistake, I will be taught a lesson by the master, and I have no friends to come and go. Lucia blinked, and her thoughts suddenly returned to the bitter and cold childhood that made her miserable, but a trace of warmth in her eyes melted the bitterness in her heart, "But I didn't feel hard, at that time I thought about how to become a good patriarch, and not to live up to the expectations of my mother and master, until I was fifteen years old." ”
Lucia's expression changed suddenly, and a trace of pain crossed her cheeks, although it was very small, it was still captured by Xuanyu: "What happened when I was fifteen years old?"
Knowing that Xuanyu saw what was on her mind, Lucia smiled bitterly: "That year, a newcomer came to the clan, my cousin, Claire Pres. ”
