Chapter 1752: Family Affection in the Flames

For a woman, the most important thing may not be life, but there must be "looks" in the things she values most.

Ursula was a very likable child when she was a child, she was quiet, sensible, and like her mother, she was fair-skinned, with delicate facial features, and she was a beautiful embryo when she was young.

However, the ruthless fate has opened a particularly cruel joke with Little Urxiu.

Three years after her sister Safina was born, and when Ursula was just six years old, a fire caused by their father's mistake in refining potions swept through the house.

The blazing flames took the lives of their parents, and nearly burned the two sisters to ashes as they were taking a nap on the second floor.

Thankfully, Ursula didn't sleep well at the time. As the flames spread from the third-floor laboratory to the second-floor staircase, she was finally awakened by a puff of smoke.

At the age of six, she faced the billowing smoke and blazing flames, and there was only one thought left in her little mind - she had to take her sister Safina outside anyway.

Yes, for that alone, she succeeded.

I don't know where the young Ursula got the strength at that time, so she dragged Safina to the living room on the first floor and pushed her out of the window that was taller than her.

But by that time, the fire had grown so big that it was difficult for her to move an inch. It was already a miracle that she sent her sister out of the window, and it was obviously impossible for her to climb out on her own.

The burnt wooden floor slab smashed into her body with flames, making her feel unimaginable pain as a young child.

The skin was scorching and shrinking, the muscles were twisting and breaking, and most of the body was almost unconscious...... However, before the tears flowed out, they were evaporated by the heat, and he was covered with wounds but could not even get any blood out.

Ursula thought she was going to die.

But she wasn't dead after all, and Larsen, the maid who was out to buy food, caught up with the last moment - she saw Safina crying in the flower bed outside the window, realized that there should be someone in the window, and then narrowly rescued her from the fire.

Unfortunately, even though he was able to save his life after emergency treatment, Ursulana's severe injuries from the deep scorching of the demonic flames left him with a cripple that could not be repaired.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Sometimes I wonder if I had been burned to death, maybe I wouldn't have to face this cruelty again, right? Mr. McLean, you know what? Not only have I never seen anyone other than Safina or Larsson, but I haven't looked in the mirror for almost a decade......"

Ursula closed her eyes slightly, and said slowly:

"Of course, maybe the only thing I don't regret is saving Safina."

Yes, if she hadn't tried to save her sister Safina at that time, she would have escaped from the house intact - a chair would have opened the door easily, and at that time, the flames probably hadn't even reached the first floor.

A child who is only six years old, even if she runs away alone, absolutely no one will blame her.

"Again," Maca shook her head when she heard her say this, "It's good to be alive...... You see, in order to get a longer life, Helmo guy is not even a good person, so it can be seen that 'living' is indeed a very wonderful thing! ”

As he was talking, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and asked casually:

"By the way, what about the mask that Safina has been wearing? Burns on her face? ”

"No, there's nothing wrong with her face, it's just ......," Ursula said a little gloomily when he asked about it, "she didn't say it, but I knew that she wore a mask every day to keep me from suffering moreβ€”she looked like me, and she looked like my mother, especially her nose and mouth, which were carved out of a mold." ”

Hearing her say her nose and mouth, Maca subconsciously lowered her head, but saw Ursula hurriedly turn her head away.

"Don't look at me...... I'm sorry, please don't look at me...... Sorry ......"

Ursula apologized as if she had forgotten how to speak, and Maca shook her head again.

"Don't worry, I've seen all the scarier ones," he smiled, then looked up again, and recalled slightly, "I don't know if Helbo's body has recovered." ”

The two of them talked softly as they walked down the block, where the serpent Yael was still fighting the two living corpses.

……

"Safina, that's Macka McLean?"

When Maca left with Ursula, Safina and Ms. Larson, who had been left behind, sat in the carriage's seat and stared out at the neighborhood not far away.

It can be seen that the violent and large-scale thunder just now is gradually coming to an end, but it is clear that the area is still very dangerous. Because, the battle continues.

Hearing the maid Larson's inquiry, Safina nodded and spoke:

"yes, that's Mr. McLean – to be honest, he's a little bit different from what I thought he was. He is so young, and I am about the same age, but obviously he has such a strong strength, but he doesn't seem to have the slightest arrogance and impetuousness...... Moreover, when he saw his sister's appearance, he was not surprised at all, and even-"

Safina was actually shocked by this. Because even she, the younger sister, did not dare to approach her sister Ursula for a long time, so that Ursula was depressed for several years.

She knew very well that it was no longer a question of whether she had a good heart at all - her sister's terrible appearance was far from being easily acceptable to ordinary people.

However, McClain not only did not show the slightest concern, but even decisively carried Ursula out of the carriage.

This act alone made the three people present, including Ursula himself, feel a strange sense of security.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ He is not an ordinary person. ”

After hesitating for a long time, Safina could only sum up Maca in one sentence.

Beside her, Ms. Larson nodded after hearing her words.

"It's just," Larson said after a moment's thought, but then hesitantly, "for some reason, I always felt that this Mr. McLean didn't seem to be very willing to help us...... Well, no, it doesn't seem like that can be said either? ”

"Didn't Mr. McLean mention it?" Safina then said, "He seems to be having some problems, so although he wants to help, he has other scruples...... Let's hope he's okay! ”
