Chapter 70: Interpretation

The wooden table that was once used to hold the scroll instrument is now decorated with flowers and fruits.

Grapes, melons, watery fruits fill the plates, gold-plated glasses are filled with millennia-old wines, and pickled red flesh reflects an alluring glow.

These are rare delicacies on weekdays, and they arouse Kane's appetite in all aspects of color, aroma and flavor.

It's not the hunger of the skin armor, but the craving of the taste buds for deliciousness.

It had been a long time since he had eaten a normal meal.

Kane raised his glass and was about to clink glasses with Cassadine, but was stopped by Keisha.

"Didn't you say you wouldn't eat? What should I do after eating these? Keisha asked.

Seeing Cassadine's puzzled gaze, Kane hurriedly gave Kesha a look:

"Keisha, don't say that these are disappointing, you should eat and drink, this is a delicacy thousands of years ago, don't you want to try it at all? I'll just clean it up later. ”

"Oh, then I'm going to drink too, Kane, you can leave some for me."

Since Kane would solve the problem of convenience, then she didn't mind much, and leaned over and sat next to Kane, waiting for him to drink the leftovers.

Cassadine thought that the aftermath of what the two said was to clean up the table after eating, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the two children were really sensible. However, he thought it was strange to let Keisha drink from the same cup that Kane had drunk, so he took out an empty glass and gave Keisha some wine.

The girls drank less, only half a cup.

Kane didn't know how to drink, and he couldn't drink it very well, but he could taste this unknown ancient wine with a low degree and not too intoxicating, similar to drinking fruit and bene.

The owner of this tower is a mage, and it seems that none of the mages like to get drunk and fall into a lethargic state of mind.

He observed the reaction of the others after drinking, Cassadine did not taste it because it was a thousand years ago, his eyes were always focused on Keisha, and he probably couldn't notice it when he changed the wine in the glass to water.

Keisha, on the other hand, took the wine in her mouth, puffed out one cheek, squeezed it from one side to the other, and squeezed it back again, repeating the cycle many times, until the wine soaked her dusty taste buds and swallowed it in one gulp.

Then he choked on his throat and started coughing dryly.

Cassadine tried to stand up, but saw that Kane had reached out and patted Keisha on the back, so he sat back down.

"Drink slowly, no one will rob you."

Seeing Kane's eyes full of doting when he saw Keisha, Cassadine vaguely felt that something was not quite right.

After eating and drinking, Kane took out the parchment scroll and asked Cassadine for advice.

"Uncle, I want you to take a look at this, we found it in a town in Acacia, and I can't read the text on it."

"I'll see." Cassadine took the scroll and unfolded it, surprised, "It's written in the ancient Shurima language. ”

"Can you read it?"

"Okay, give me some time to ponder."

Cassadine worked as a desert guide, and there are many tombs in the Shurima Desert, and in order to understand the hints of ancient tombs to better survive, he took the initiative to study ancient texts. And Shurima ruled Acacia for more than a thousand years, and the writing has long been unified, so the scrolls of the Acacians Cassadine can be understood.

At this moment, Keisha grabbed Kane's arm and shook it vigorously and said, "I want to make it easier, you accompany me to ......"

She drank some more wine later, and now she seems to be a little drunk, and she can't speak clearly, and she is very coquettish.

Kane helped Keisha to her feet, and asked Cassadine, "Where is the usual convenience of Uncle, tell me that I will take Keisha there." ”

Cassadine pointed to a place, and Kane led Keisha over.

Then Cassadine held the scroll and wondered why girls should be followed by boys, isn't it ashamed? Is the relationship between the two already so close?

Actually, it's really not okay if Kane doesn't follow, otherwise Keisha will really pull her pants.

After that, Kane and Keisha returned to the table and sat down, and he asked how the Cassadine scrolls were interpreted.

Cassadine first glanced deeply at the two of them, and saw that Keisha was more energetic, before he replied:

"Presumably, the mages of Acacia discovered the void exposed by the earthquake, and then contained it with a special flame for Kauali to escort back to the Governing Council."

Kauali means Acacia's dead man, and this Kane knows it.

"Did the Void emerge from the ground? The people of Acacia have crossed a taboo that should not be touched. He sighed, lamenting the demise of a nation.

Cassadine had studied the history of Acacia, so he knew that there had been a terrible battle here.

"To be precise, the Void is not in our world, and the things that are underground are just cannon fodder that they create from existing matter. It was the Acacians who opened the passage between the two worlds, causing the Void to reach its tentacles into our world. ”

Kane couldn't help but correct that the relationship between the Void and the Runeterras was actually more complicated than it seemed, and that those monsters didn't live as simple as living underground.

Cassadine was stunned for a moment and nodded: "I didn't expect that you know a lot." ”

"Uncle, how much do you know about the special flames mentioned in the scroll?"

"What's wrong? You need to? ”

"Well, it's to save yourself a back hand. This skin has kept us alive until now, but after all, it comes from the Void, and it may be our turn to run out of food, so I want to get this flame to counterbalance the backlash that may occur in the future. ”

Skinarmor responded to Kane's words with a tingle, and his features suddenly distorted, causing Cassadine to worry.

"What's wrong with you! Child? ”

"It's fine." Kane waved his hand and quickly returned to normal.

"This skin ...... Does it hurt? ”

"Occasionally, I'm used to it." Kane said with a smile.

Hearing this, Cassadine's gaze moved back and forth between Kane and Keisha, and finally let out a long sigh. In order to secure the future of his family, he must give it his all.

"There's no mention of how to get or make this flame in the scroll, but there are a lot of books in the tower, I don't know if there's any mention of it, and if there is, I'll be in charge of helping you find it."

Cassadine's answer relieved Kane, the owner of this tower is a powerful mage, and it's normal for the vault to store information on the Eternal Flame, right?

In fact, Kane knew that he could get the Eternal Flame there, and he might be able to borrow it if he found a weapon master.

But this kind of thing, if you can grasp it yourself, why you should go to someone else to ask for it, what if someone doesn't give it to you?

"If you can, my uncle will teach us to read faster, and when we learn, we can also help find it, reducing your burden." Kane also brought Keisha with him when he said this, and they were not educated at all, and now they were a little better than illiterate.

For those who want to go out in the future, it is better to be literate.

"Okay, let's start tomorrow, it's time to celebrate."

Cassadine smiled with satisfaction, Kane's kid is self-motivated, it's really good.

And teach Kaisha to read, and she will not be afraid of boredom in the future, and she will finally have the opportunity to fulfill her responsibilities as a parent.

He was in the mood and offered Kane another glass of wine.

It was then that Kane noticed a strange purple glow emanating from the palm of his left hand.
