Chapter 40: Reality Is Cruel!
"Ahem! Ahem! What you just said, tell me again! ”
Aisha, who was choked by the water, had just recovered her strength, so she asked Dio with a shocked face, but at this time, Dio had no time to pay attention to her. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Eaves, who reacted quickly, quickly fetched a clean towel and asked Dio, who had been sprayed with water by Aisha, to wipe it up. Katie stood there with a sneer on her face and looked at the embarrassed Dio, while Ms. Evie never spoke, just silently stroked her belly. Aisha also remembered what she had just done at this time, and suddenly turned her head away in embarrassment.
Now, her ladylike image is completely ruined.
But she can't be blamed, it's what Dio did, and the consequences are really too serious.
For Dio, who is a commoner, killing a nobleman, even just an honorary nobleman, is an undoubted capital crime in the United Kingdom of Malte!
Once Dio is caught, it will definitely be a considerable blow to Aisha, who finally summoned Dio.
Therefore, Aisha, who quickly suppressed that embarrassment, looked at Dio with hope.
She was now eager to hear Dio say that he was just joking, and that although the joke was a bit worse, she would definitely forgive him.
It's a pity that Aisha's hope is doomed to fail.
After Dio, who was speechless, wiped his face clean, he looked at Aisha with a serious face and said, "This matter is a long story, you listen to me quietly and slowly." ”
So so, so and so......
Dio started when he found out of the school of magic in the middle of the night, and continued until he was separated from Melia and the others, and then took Katie to Viscount Bolton's manor again.
“…… The secret passage in the study is very special.,The secret passage leads to the basement on the surface.,In fact, there is another secret passage in the secret passage.,And this real secret passage actually leads to the attic on the study.。 Glancing at the sad Lady Evie, Dio said in a flat tone, "I easily found out the real secret passage. Then, in the attic, I used the token left by Viscount Bolton to gain the trust of Lady Evie, and finally brought her here. ”
Now, the two rings that Viscount Bolton had given to Dio were in Lady Eviie's hands. The "token" in Dio's mouth is not actually the family owner ring engraved with the family crest of the Burton family, but another ordinary-looking ring.
It was the wedding ring of Viscount Bolton and Lady Evie.
However, this is not Aisha's concern: "Did you really kill Viscount Bolton?" Actually, it shouldn't matter to you if you kill him or not, right? After all, you just need some money to buy me a bottle of meditation potion...... Why do you have to kill him? ”
Hearing this, Ms. Evie's hand also trembled.
Dio grimaced and said to Aisha with a rather serious expression, "As you said, it really doesn't matter to me whether I kill him or not. However, this is a very important thing for Viscount Bolton! ”
"Ordinary people may not notice, but as a dark mage, I can feel that in addition to the continuous loss of vitality, Viscount Bolton's body is undergoing some not-so-wonderful changes......" Dio didn't look at Lady Evie, his eyes looked directly at Aisha, "Viscount Bolton was ...... at the time Slowly turning into a demon! ”
That's right, that's the real reason why Dio had to kill Viscount Bolton. Although Dio was still a little puzzled about how Viscount Bolton could gradually turn into a demon, after repeatedly confirming with the system elf Bart, Dio finally decided to kill Viscount Bolton directly while he was still a human.
"Isn't it!"
"How can this be ......"
Aisha and Lady Evie exclaimed at the same time, and Katie, who had been sneering at Dio, also changed her face, and only Eve, who didn't care about the demons, remained indifferent.
"I knew it was hard to believe, and I was really confused at the time. However, this confusion has an answer after meeting the magician Arudo, who is actually a demon sorcerer. Dio raised an eyebrow, "Obviously, the anomaly in Viscount Bolton is probably caused by that Arrudo." I guess Arudo is trying to forcibly advance Viscount Bolton to the intermediate level by demonizing him. ”
If Viscount Bolton really turned into a demon, Arudo, as a demon warlock, would definitely have a way to control "it". If the demonized Viscount Bolton is transformed into a flesh puppet, Arudo may be able to obtain a flesh puppet with the strength of an intermediate peak or even a high-level professional!
"Is this true?" Aisha asked hesitantly, and Lady Evie looked at Dio with some suspicion.
"Humph!"
Snorted coldly, Dio clasped his hands on his chest, and said with disdain: "I don't care to lie about this kind of thing yet." Moreover, whether Viscount Bolton is gradually transforming into a demon or not, you can verify by examining his corpse! ”
As soon as these words came out, Aisha was speechless, and Lady Evie began to silently fall into her eyes. Apparently, both had already believed what Dio had said.
"Viscount Bolton himself should not know about this matter, and I did not tell him the truth of the facts." Dio narrowed his eyes slightly, "He's a real man, so I gave him a good time." ”
(Instead of watching him turn into a monster so that he can retain his last dignity.) )
"But in the end, after all, you killed Viscount Bolton with your own hands, aren't you afraid that the Viscountess will hate you?" Looking at Lady Evie, who had been crying silently, Aisha hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
"Will she hate me, is that important?" Dio didn't look at Lady Evie, and said with a straight face, "I promised Viscount Bolton to help him take care of his wife and children, so I reached out to her. As for whether she hates me or not, I don't care at all. ”
Speaking of which, Dio finally glanced at Lady Evie: "Her strength is too weak...... What's more, she still has Viscount Bolton's child in her belly! If it weren't for this child, the Viscountess might not hesitate to come to me desperately. But now, for the sake of this child, she can only follow my arrangement until this child grows up smoothly. ”
The reason is very simple, just like Aisha, the Bolton family, which has lost its pillar, will also be watched by other nobles, and Ms. Evie, who does not even have the strength of the first order, obviously cannot keep the property of the Bolton family, and even the fetus in the womb may be in danger.
So Lady Evie could only trust Dio, who was holding the token given by Viscount Bolton, hoping that he would really protect the mother and son.
At this moment, Ms. Evie bit her lower lip tightly and silently wept. Aisha, on the other hand, looked at Ms. Evie with a somewhat complicated look in her eyes.
"This is the sorrow of the weak." Dio glanced at Aisha, "So are you!" I can't be with you forever! So, if you can't become a strong man, in this world of the jungle, the Testrosa family will one day completely disappear from this world! ”
Aisha's body shuddered, but she didn't say anything.
"Think about it yourself." Dio sighed, took out the Antonio notebook Bart had given him, put it in Aisha's hand, and went straight back to his room.
Aisha looked down at the book in her hand, her face quite complicated.
