The moment the question was asked, Cinderella began to regret it.

My damn curiosity.

The school bully girl complained about herself in her heart.

She had guessed that the phantom of this demon king might be a secret that Mr. Merlin had been hiding and didn't want others to know, and this secret was inadvertently seen by her magic eye, and she was worried that she would be punished for seeing something she shouldn't have seen again.

But the result was a bit unexpected by Cinderella, the punishment she imagined never came, but Teacher Merlin treated her more gently, helped her repair the broken sea of consciousness, explained the dangers of the spirit world to her, and gave her precious spirit tools, and helped her transform her glasses to protect her from the backlash of too powerful vision.

There's some kind of punishment here, it's like a reward.

It's just that the more Teacher Merlin is like this, the more panicked Cinderella becomes, she is really a little bottomless, so one is to satisfy her curiosity, and the other is to seek peace of mind, the school bully girl finally chose to take the initiative to showdown.

"That, in fact, no matter who you are, Mr. Merlin, you are my teacher, I won't tell anyone else this secret, if you don't believe it, teacher, we can sign a new contract."

Cinderella plucked up the courage to say this, even if Merlin was really an evil demon king, she accepted it, and was willing to become a demon king's minions.

Merlin: "........"

He was about to get up and leave, but now it's almost school time, and he's still in a hurry to go to the Forbidden Library, but Cinderella came to make him a little surprised,

However, looking at the tangled face of the school bully girl, he who is proficient in psychology can basically guess what the girl is now entangled in her brain at a glance, which is nothing more than the bridge where the evil demon king hides his identity and sneaks into the school to make a big news.

But one thing to say, Cinderella's willingness to become the demon king's minions still moved Merlin a lot, his favorability for so many days has finally not been in vain, the corner of this European emperor's apprentice is finally solid, and there is no need to worry about this long-legged ticket running away from Europe.

Okay, since you trust me so much, then I won't act, I'll have a showdown.

"Well, I knew I couldn't hide it from your eyes, and you really saw that."

Merlin thought for a moment, then sat down again, and he opened his mouth to explain to Cinderella.

"Actually, things are not as bad as you think, your teacher and I are really not a demon king, although I do hide my identity, but my real name is Merlin. Cornwallis, Hayward, you almost know who I am when you say Cinderella, after all, you are a good historian. ”

Merlin smiled and asked the schoolboy rhetorically.

Cinderella: "......."

The school bully girl was silent, she felt that she was mentally ready to accept everything, and felt that even if Teacher Merlin really confessed that he was the current demon king, and she could accept it calmly if he performed a big transformation for her in person, but now this truth is still a bit unexpected by her.

Cornwallis. Hayward, what does this surname mean, this is known to anyone on the road, let alone Cinderella, who has a full score in history.

It has only been 16 years since the empire collapsed, and 16 years is not enough time for an ancient empire with a thousand years of history to erase the traces it has left behind.

"Teacher, are you His Royal Highness the Prince?"

Cinderella is still a little incredulous, she has made up a big conspiracy of a demon king in her brain, and now you tell me that you are actually the prince of justice? This is too much of a contrast.

"But didn't His Royal Highness die at birth? Didn't it mean that the thieves who kidnapped Her Majesty came to take revenge at the prince's 100-day banquet, and all the royal family died under the wrath of the thieves? ”

Cinderella recounted the history written in her textbook.

Because of the secret ban, ordinary people don't know the mysterious side, so in the cognition of ordinary people, the brave man defeated the thief group in the name of the evil dragon, and rescued the princess kidnapped by the thief group to inherit the throne from the old king, and the fall of the kingdom was also because of the revenge of the evil dragon thief group that led to the total destruction of the royal family.

Do you believe that? What kind of thieves can assassinate the entire royal family under the guard of the most elite knights in the kingdom? And except for the royal family, none of the other guests were injured? ”

Merlin asked rhetorically.

Cinderella: "I..... Well, I don't believe it. ”

The school bully girl was convinced, she didn't think much about this historical record when she was an ordinary person before, after all, the affairs of the high-ranking royal family are too far away from a commoner like her, and it is not her turn to worry about it, she just needs to memorize this history to cope with the exam.

But now that she has seen the mysterious side, Cinderella is really funny enough when she looks back at that period of history, there are loopholes everywhere, it's like someone casually found a reason to fool ordinary people, but what's even funnier is that he really succeeded in fooling him, as if no one has ever doubted this statement.

emmmm...... Is there a mysterious force behind this that is helping to cover it up?

In the end, Cinderella quickly realized the truth of the matter, and she raised her head in shock to look at the beautiful young teacher opposite.

"Well, that's right, the truth is just like you think, in order to eliminate the mystery, the Templar Church dispatched three cardinal archbishops that time, and the Wizards Association also sent two sages over, plus the role of those subordinate knights and wizard formations, such a powerful force is enough to distort reality, except for a few people in high positions in the entire royal city, everyone else has had their memories modified."

Merlin nodded in acknowledging Cinderella's guess.

The school bully girl was really silent this time, although both Cynthia and Merlin had more or less told them about the cruelty of this world before, but there was no time that the girl felt cold and frightened like this.

Is this the power of the mysterious side, those ordinary people may never know that their memories have been modified for the rest of their lives, this kind of life like a puppet at the mercy of others is really chilling.

"Okay, don't think about those past things, let him pass those things after they pass, I'm too lazy to care about it myself, you don't have to worry about it, let's go back to the demon king phantom you saw, it's actually just a curse on me, it's really not as terrible as you imagined."

Merlin spoke again, and he explained a little to the schoolboy what the curse of the demon king was all about.
