Chapter 341: Return to Man
The carriage drove slowly down the avenue outside the city, but no one spoke in the carriage for a long time, except for the rhythmic sound of the horses' hooves on the ground.
Vera leaned sideways, pretending to lean against the window, and looked at Marianne with her eyes.
Her hair had been dyed blonde at some point, and she was wearing a nun's dress that she had never been able to touch before, and her eyebrows were much less majestic.
Marianne said nothing, silently playing with her long golden hair, as if trying to carefully sift through the white hair.
At this time, Marianne no longer seems to be the high-flying twilight witch, perhaps, this is the witch's return to people.
"Mistress ...... What are you going to do with me? ”
Finally, Vera asked in a whisper.
When Marianne heard this, she didn't answer at the first time.
What to do with the traitors of the Witch Society?
In fact, along the way, she is also seriously thinking about this question.
Her mentality naturally can't be as calm as Gu Yun, she can't completely let go of the anger and mustard in her heart, if it was her former self, she is afraid that she will not give the other party a happy death after catching Vera, she will definitely torture Vera for a few days or even a month with the most cruel spell recorded in the magic book, and then hang her body at the door of the witch club after she is executed, so that all witches can understand the fate of betraying her.
This is probably the harshest criminal law she can imagine.
But in the real "history", Vera ...... And the future of the entire Fernando family is much more cruel than she imagined torture.
At the end of the Dark Ages, betrayed by her most trusted See, almost all members of her family were burned at the stake, becoming another example of the Holy See's example, and with Belmont's help, Vera was finally able to get her life back and take the few remaining members of her family across the ocean, and was exiled to another continent forever.
Not only that, but she also passed on the curse of Count Dracula to her descendants, so that Fernando's future heirs could not escape the fate of sacrificing themselves.
This is the story Marianne heard from Gu Yun, and she feels that if she is asked to design the fate of the Fernando family with her own hands, she may not be able to write such a chapter.
"What to do with you?"
Marianne suddenly smiled, "I'm going to let you go." ”
If Vera dies here, she won't be able to see fate mocking the entire Fernando family.
"Not only that, but I'll guide you through the 'engraving'."
“…… Why? ”
Vera thinks she must be hallucinating, and the witch, who has always been known for her tyranny, declares that she will spare the betrayer of the Witch Society, and even help her complete her research.
You know, her idea of the seal from the beginning was not to continue the glory of the Witch Society, but to use it as another force against vampires, werewolves and witches, as long as they master this extraordinary power, even ordinary people can find a way to protect themselves in this troubled world.
And this is definitely not what the witch wants to see.
Or rather......
After experiencing the ups and downs of life, and after meeting Gu Yun, the Witch of Dusk was finally able to return to people?
"Blessing the power of the necromancy is one of the ways to use the life spell, but with the human constitution, it is absolutely impossible to withstand the energy of the necromancy, so the end of this path is only death - since you have chosen a path of mortality, I will do as you wish."
"I see."
After a moment of hesitation, Vera took a deep breath and looked extremely determined, "Mistress, there are some things that must be done even if they have to pay the price of death, and this is the reason why I betrayed the Witch Society and betrayed you in the first place. ”
In every land she had ever walked, she had heard the voices of despair and death, and she had been a spreader of darkness.
"If you saw everything I saw......"
"Knowledge beyond ordinary understanding, the ability to change the laws of all things, and the ability to win people's hearts...... All this is a forbidden law. ”
And the Holy See will never allow "anomalous things" to exist in this world.
Marianne understood the meaning of Vera's words, there was no anger in her heart at the moment, but an inexplicable sense of loss, this unexplained loss made her can't help but look at Gu Yun, but finally found that the latter was closing her eyes, sleeping peacefully on her back to the sky.
This person beats and sleeps when he says, and never cares what others think of him.
The moment she became a witch, she probably wanted to get this kind of life.
It's just that......
"A witch can never return to man."
………………………………
Meanwhile, N City, late at night.
Ikeda flipped the old books to the next page by night, and the Fernando family's bookshelves held secrets from more than one era, and she probably wouldn't have access to the Fernando family's collection if it weren't for the recent oddities.
This is a book about the origins of engraving.
In secular perception, it was Mafal, the hero of the Belmont family, who created the way to use the inscription, but in this book, the person who created the inscription is Vera Fernando, the ancestor of the Fernando family.
Ikeda frowned.
Because the content of the book is that Vera Fernando was able to create the mark of Belmont and Fernand's heroes to compete with Count Dracula with the help of the Witch of Dusk.
However, hadn't the Twilight Witch already been killed by then?
As the betrayers of the Witches' Society, it is not an exaggeration to describe Vera and Marianne as enemies, why did the witch guide Vera to create the inscription?
The ancient texts only describe the whole process of Vera's creation of the seal, but they are not filled in enough details, and even her encounter with Marianne is never mentioned.
The few short passages of the narrative are full of mysteries, and the more Ikeda reads deeper, the more puzzled he becomes.
Something seems to have changed.
However, she could not name the specific chapters and paragraphs for a while, and she read the entire first chapter carefully, but she still did not see any signs of change.
"Ikeda, what's going on over there?"
"Nothing else has been found yet...... What about you? Have you found a teacher? ”
"No, we searched all the nearby places, and Luo Xin called back just now to say that the teacher didn't go back to the shrine either."
Seventeen's voice came from outside the door, "I've also gone under the dry well to investigate, and there's nothing in there." ”
A full day has passed, and the teacher's whereabouts are still unknown.
A lingering thought grew in their hearts.
Teacher he ......
Will it go to the world on the other side of the rift?
And the missing Andella and the other two were also swept up by the same rift?
