Suddenly, my eyes went black and my lips felt wet. {We don't write novels, we're just web text porters-
Kroll ...... I miss you so much......"
Ryan's voice was soft and deep, and a few short words came out of the tip of his tongue, like a fine wine, making people drowsy.
ββ β
Once the flame starts to burn, the enthusiasm can no longer be extinguished.
I heard my own beating like a drum and Ryan's deepening gasps, and I couldn't help but hug his strong body, reach into his clothes, and caress his bare back.
The lips and tongue were extremely lingering, and Ryan let out a soft whimper, like a wolf cub being gently caressed.
ββ¦β¦ You've got to go tomorrow. I ended a long kiss against his forehead, warm breath intertwined, only to feel peaceful but warm in my heart.
"Actually...... It doesn't matter. Ryan said, his voice low and inaudible.
I pressed his head into my arms and rebuked him softly: "Shut up, you think I'm abstinent β for the good of whom." β
"Hey...... Ryan grinned in my arms, his hands wrapped tightly around my waist, grinding around β my neck like a haunting Orr.
ββ β
The next day, after a hurried farewell to Ryan, I approached Luke and inquired about the illness of the Hebrew Viscount.
Now that the weather is fine, Luke is wrapped in a dark mage cloak, and with his ravine-crisscrossed face, he is almost like a terrible dark mage: "You want to know if elemental blockage is a congenital illness of the Viscount?" β
"Yes, I heard you say that the Viscount has been like this since he was a child...... It's just that I don't know if the viscount was born with it, or if he became like this for some reason after birth. β
"Viscount, he'......" Luke sighed softly, "This shouldn't have been mentioned again." β
"Ah...... I just thought it would be very helpful to cure the Viscount if I could know more clearly and in detail. β
"......" Luke was silent for a long time, slowly moved to the chair next to him, and then, in his hoarse voice, told me about the unknown past of the Hebrew Viscount family.
"The Viscount is not actually the biological son of the old Viscount, but he is the only and favorite son of the Old Viscount...... This is all because the old viscount is deeply in love with Madame. β
"The old viscount's wife, the person who came to Buro City with a mercenary group many years ago, speaking of which, is also from your Eastern Continent."
"At that time, Madame was doing a chorion-like job in the mercenary group, dressed in rags and unkempt. However, the old viscount saw her beautiful and moving true face by chance, so he ransomed her from the mercenary group despite the fact that his wife was pregnant at the time. β
"Why do you need to buy it from a mercenary group?" I was stunned and couldn't help but ask.
"The mercenaries in those years were not as free as they are now, almost all of them were recruited by the person in charge of collecting talented slaves from all over the world, and after signing the contract, a mercenary group was formed."
"So, that lady used to be a slave...... After being rescued from the mercenary group by the old viscount, was the contract terminated? "Hearing this, I vaguely caught some clues in my heart, but it seemed that something was still missing.
"Yes, Madame drank the secret medicine of breaking the contract, although she broke the contract with the mercenary group, but she was also sick in bed for many years, and died of illness shortly after giving birth to the viscount."
"So, the illness of the Hebrew Viscount is congenital?"
"Yes, I've been thinking that maybe it's a genetic disease in Madame's family or something......"
"I see...... Then, to explore the source of the viscount's illness, it seems that we have to start with the lady. I looked at Luke and pleaded, "I wonder if you can sue Madame SΓΉ by name, or from which mercenary group ransomed Madame in the first place?" β
"Madame's name, naturally you can't take the liberty of mentioning it, but that mercenary group was very famous back then, you probably have heard of it." Luke said, "It's the Lucas mercenary group of the Western Continent. β
Lucas Mercenary Regiment?
Lu ...... Lucas Mercenary Regiment? Is this Lucas, please? I dipped in a little water and wrote a few words on the wooden tabletop.
Luke nodded, the love in his eyes was obscure: "That's right, you really know about this mercenary group." β
Yes, of course I know about this mercenary group, or rather, like thunder-
The Lucas mercenary group is the mercenary group that has the support of the nobles of the Western Continent and is overbearing and notorious in the Eastern Continent. It was the mercenary group that kidnapped and killed the only son of the noble dean.
As soon as my mind moved, I blurted out: "Forgive me for taking the liberty of hearing the Viscount mention his mother a few days ago, well...... Madame seems to have the surname Leander. β
Luke gave me a look of surprise, then nodded slowly.
My heart couldn't help beating faster, and in this moment, I finally understood why the moment I saw Viscount Hebrew, my face felt so familiar.
The mysterious disappearance of the aristocratic dean of the Panson Welfare House is named Leander Joshi. The Hebrew viscount, with his pale blonde hair and azure eyes, which symbolized his noble and unique lineage, was the same as that of the noble abbot of his day.
Lucas Mercenary Regiment ......
It turns out that it is also ...... The culprit who made the dean's wife disappear.
ββ β
A conversation with Luke made me aware of such an overwhelming fact.
I was pacing back and forth in my room, my mind in a mess, and I didn't know what to do for a while.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of my room. I quickly gathered my messy thoughts, and then opened the door.
Xavier was standing outside the door with a plate in hand.
"I don't see you had dinner, so ......" he smiled at me and bowed his head a little awkwardly.
"Thank you." I took the plate and led Xavier into the room and sat him down at the table, while I walked over to the shelf and washed my hands.
On the plate is bread with Phoebe and bolognese, baked golden brown, just looking at it, it makes people appetize.
However, now is not the time to enjoy the delicious food.
I sat across from Xavier and looked at him. He seemed a little uneasy, a little uncomfortably looking away from me.
"I ...... in the face Anything about it? Look at me like that. β
I shook my head and asked thoughtfully, "Xavier, you sued me before that you were trafficked here by the mercenary group...... Kindness...... Do you remember which mercenary group? β
He was stunned for a moment, and soon, a look of fear appeared on his face, his arms curled up, and he sat on the stool shivering.
"I'm sorry...... I didn't mean to remind you of bad things...... "I feel very uncomfortable to see him like this, but ......
"Is it the Lucas Mercenary Regiment?" After a moment of silence, I asked.
At this moment, Xavier seemed to be frozen, suddenly stopped trembling, and stood up.
He stared at me with wide eyes: "You know everything......"
"I don't know anything......" I shook my head with some distress: "Xavier, I found out today that maybe the fire in the Panson Welfare House back then was caused by the Lucas mercenary group." β
"No...... No...... Lucas Mercenary Regiment ......" Xavier suddenly shook his head frantically, as if he had fallen into some memory, his expression was in a trance, and even the plates on the table were swept to the ground by him in the frenzy, turning into a pile of fragments.
"Alright...... Don't think about it...... "Seeing that his feelings were out of control, I hurriedly took out the tranquilizer from the cabinet and poured it on Xavier.
Soon, he stopped his movements and fell into a deep sleep quietly on the table.
His breathing was soft and shallow, as if he was afraid of disturbing others.
I watched him sleep peacefully, but the doubts in my heart swelled to the point of no return.
What happened back then...... It will make Xavier, who is strong and cheerful, ...... It's what it is now......
