House of Spells Chapter 11 Murray's Life Story

"Oh, is this how the knights here bully civilians?" A coquettish voice came from the crowd.

Elena's words are relaxed, but her eyes are very sharp.

There were two other girls beside her, none other than Bella and Anna.

Originally, they had gone out shopping with Mr. Murray this morning, and they happened to pass by here, and they happened to encounter such an incident.

"Who are you?" Lecter looked at Elena warily.

"I'm a passerby, too." Elena replied.

Rector was a little uncertain.

Judging by the dress, this is obviously not an ordinary person. But he had been in contact with the nobles nearby, and it seemed that he had never seen this person.

Is it from out of town?

In any case, the situation at hand is awkward. Only a young officer can be said to be more tricky, if a certain aristocratic family is involved.

These are sensitive times, and we need to get as much support as we can.

However, in this situation now, if you stop it, you won't be able to get over it, after all, there are so many people around you.

Just as Rector hesitated, the masked man next to him patted him on the shoulder with his hand, then shook his head.

Rector reluctantly withdrew his sword.

"Looks like it's a bad day!" Lecter said, "Shall we meet another day?"

With that, he left with the masked man behind him.

Looking at the distant backs of the two, Bella seemed to fall into deep thought.

"What's wrong?" Looking at Bella's expression, Elena asked suspiciously.

"Hmm...... I seem to think that person is a little familiar." Bella replied.

"Which one?"

"It's the one with the masked."

"Have you seen it anywhere?"

"I don't know." Bella replied, "Maybe it's my delusion."

The other party covered his face and couldn't see his face clearly.

"Are you hurt?" Elena said as she looked at Murray's bloodstained palm.

"Ah, a little injury, nothing serious." Murray pretended to be relaxed and said, "On the battlefield, it's much more brutal than this."

Although he said so, his injured left hand was obviously a little unstable.

At Elena's insistence, he finally agreed to go back and let Hillia bandage it.

After Mr. Murray's introduction, they learned that the person just now was Jennifer's brother.

"It's too much." Elena said angrily, "As a knight, he actually swung a sword at a civilian, and the other party is still an unarmed child!"

The meaning of knighthood should be to guard. Be protective, not arrogant.

"I think he must be in a bad mood." Murray said.

"Do I care if he's in a good mood?" Elena said, "If you're in a bad mood, can you just take your breath out on others?"

"This ...... I don't mean to excuse him." Murray smiled awkwardly, "Judging by the direction they came, they must have just left Segovia's house."

"Huh? Have they been here before?"

"Yes." Hiria replied as she helped Murray apply the ointment.

"For Mr. Terrance's sake?"

"If he wasn't mistaken, he must have wanted his cousin's son, Cyril, to inherit the title, so he came to his aunt to discuss." Murray said.

"So, he must have failed to succeed?"

That's why I'm so grumpy.

"I think my aunt must have shown no attitude as always."

This is very much in line with Lady Isabel's character.

Madame Isabel had a great deal of influence in Castile, and as soon as she spoke, the matter was basically decided.

And if she doesn't say anything for a long time, others can't do anything.

Now that Mr. Terrance is gone, only Mrs. Isabel is left in the Segovia family.

Who succeeds as the next head of the family is very important for the whole of Castile, and indeed for the whole of the Iberian Peninsula.

And at this time, Isabel remained silent, which made many people uneasy.

Rechett is the most typical example of this.

As the head of the Royal Order, he has military power in his hands, and if the person who succeeds him is dissatisfied with him, then he will definitely threaten his position.

And at this time, if you let your cousin take over, you can sit back and relax.

It's not hard to understand what this thinks.

"Mr. Murray, I have a question for you." Bella said suddenly.

"Miss Carlos, please."

"Have you ever thought about inheriting Mr. Terrance's title?"

Since Isabel wrote to Murray back this time, it cannot be ruled out that Madame has such a plan.

And, if she wanted to, she could do it.

"You know, my mother, was Miss Meredith's maid." Murray said.

"Miss Meredith is ......?"

"It's Big Brother Nigel's wife." Murray replied, "My mother came to Segovia's house with Miss Meredith. At that time, the Nigels were still alive, and the family was relatively harmonious. When I heard that my father married Jennifer, things started to change."

After all, it is a continuation of the string, and it is not as easy to integrate into the family as the original match.

"However, it was okay at first, and there were no obvious conflicts. Later relations began to deteriorate, especially after Cyril was born. Jennifer has always been more exclusive to the Nigels, and even her father couldn't stand it anymore, and she quarreled with Jennifer many times. Later, the Nigels moved out. From then on, my father often did not return home at night, but it was not easy to stay outside for a long time, which was easy to cause gossip, so he hid in the servant's room. I don't know what kind of development I went through, but anyway, my mother became pregnant with me."

It seems that Elena is right, men are not a good thing, they only think with their lower body.

For the first time, Bella so agrees with her.

"After Jennifer learned about this incident, she once wanted to get rid of her mother, as well as me who was not yet born in her womb, so she did not hesitate to use the power of the Knights." Murray continued, "In the end, it was my aunt who stepped in and saved us. Although she could not give my mother any name, nor could she blame her brother, she took pity on us and sent my mother to her student, Ferdinand, then the Crown Prince of Aragon. Therefore, I was born in the royal palace of Aragon."

It seems that Mrs. Isabel is also very enlightened.

"Not only did Ferdinand give my mother a suitable job, but he also adopted me as an adopted son, so that I could be educated and learn swordsmanship with other noble children. And after he ascended the throne, he appointed me to a military position. I think it's probably all my aunt's intention."

It can be seen that Mr. Murray is very grateful to Mrs. Isabel.

No wonder as soon as he received the news this time, he rushed non-stop and bought a standing ticket even if there were no seats on the train.
