It was the first time Bella had seen such a strange body.

But speaking of which, she hasn't actually talked about it a few times.

But this kind of strange situation in front of you is really difficult to happen.

At least under normal circumstances.

Lady Isabel waved her wand and lifted the white cloth that covered Terrence Segovia's body.

An old man in his sixties lies quietly on a stone bed.

That old face looked more than two or three years older than Isabel. Should Mr. Terrance be older, or is Mrs. Isabel well-maintained?

None of this matters, though, and no one doubts his kinship with Isabel. It doesn't depend on the similarity of the facial features of the two, but the serious demeanor is no different from Isabel.

After a certain amount of embalming, the body was subjected to a wind magic barrier by Lady Isabel, and it was basically kept in its original form.

Terrance closed his eyes expressionlessly, as if he were asleep, and if it had not been known in advance, it would have been possible to mistake him for still alive, and that he was really just asleep.

However, even so, the condition in his chest can be quickly noticed and re-judged, and the conclusion "yes, he is dead".

Just to the left of his chest, where his heart is, is a wooden wand.

That's right, not a sword or a spear, not some monster's tooth or minions, but a wand—his own.

A man who died under his own wand was still the kind that was deeply pierced through the heart.

Would anyone do that?

Regardless of whether or not anyone would do this, how to do such a thing is first and foremost a question.

The wand is not a dagger, not even a sharp weapon, and although the head is also pointed, the material is not as strong as metal, nor as sharp as a needle prick.

Ordinary wooden wands are not too thin, because if they are too thin, they will easily break; Of course, it will not be too coarse, too coarse to be inconvenient to carry and use.

As a result, the shape and size of a normal wand will be kept in a range that is convenient and resistant to application, achieving a balance.

From this point of view, it is definitely not easy to insert such an object into the heart.

Not to mention the ribs that go through the chest.

Because the heart is the "center" of the human organ and the hub of human blood circulation, such an important part will of course be wrapped by muscles and bones. And we usually judge a person's life and death, and the first thing to do is to measure whether his heartbeat is still there.

As long as the heartbeat does not stop, it means that life is not over, and then there is hope that it can be saved.

It is precisely because the heart is such an important place that it will be protected layer by layer, and it is also one of the key objects of protection for human beings when fighting.

Therefore, it is not so easy to pierce the heart.

And it's a wand.

If you have to do this, you have to have a certain amount of speed and strength.

Use speed and power to compensate for tool disadvantages.

The focus is on speed. Because with force alone, wands can easily break. Only if the speed is enough, you can successfully pierce the chest.

Speaking of which, even paper can hurt people if it's fast enough.

But then again, the wand itself isn't sharp, as its main value is to help cast spells. It's strange to think that you use a magic wand but use a physical attack, right?

To put it simply, if you really want to kill yourself with a wand, you can do so by casting spells; On the other hand, if you must be obsessed with piercing the heart, then there are many sharp weapons to choose from, so why use a wand that is not easy to use?

In the same way, even if he kills.

If anyone wants to kill Mr. Terrance, then they must choose a more effective measure.

Take the wand off and stab it in the chest? Mr. Terrance could not have been without resistance.

So, could it be an accident?

Could it be that Mr. Terrance was busy with something else when he accidentally stuck a wand into his heart?

How careless!

- even more outrageous.

Bella pondered and couldn't find a reasonable explanation.

"What do you think this looks like?" Lady Isabel asked.

"I don't know." Bella replied, "It's hard to believe."

"That's right." Isabel said, "This state of affairs seems strange and difficult to explain according to common sense."

"Common sense?" Bella seemed to think of something, "Is it ......?"

"You want to say curse, don't you?"

"Hmm." Bella nodded.

Madame was silent for a moment.

"As far as I know." Isabel said, "It's true that some of them are for the heart."

"Is that possible?"

"I don't know." Madame shook her head, "However, my brother is quite accomplished in spells."

"Mr. Terrance?"

If that's the case, a man who is proficient in spells, but dies under spells?

"It is no exaggeration to say that in Castile, or in the whole of the Iberian Peninsula, there is no one who can match it." Isabel continued, "And he's always been cautious, even if someone sneaks up, he should still have time to defend himself."

"Suicide ruled out?" Bella asked.

Madame shook her head again.

"I don't think he's the kind of person who can't think about it." Isabel replied, "Even if there is any new research being conducted, it must be prepared in advance. He's always been so cautious."

"What does new research mean?"

"Spells are different from other forms of magic. Neither as visible as elemental magic, nor as immediate as summoning magic, but rather a very subtle or chronic effect. Sometimes, in order to judge the effect of a spell, it is necessary to test it yourself."

"That's dangerous."

"That's right, so when our ancestors tested new research results, they generally used animal experiments. Even if it has to be used on the human body, we will prepare protective measures in advance."

Terrance is an expert in this area, and he should not be negligent in this area.

"Is there a spell that destroys the heart?" Bella asked.

"I know what you mean, I've thought of that, too." Isabel replied, "There are indeed some curses placed on the heart. However, as far as I know, it usually causes heart failure, or disrupts the stability of the heart rate, affecting the automaticity of the heart muscle. Basically, the effect of damaging the heart is achieved through physiological destruction, and there is no such method that directly causes physical damage."

"So, it's hard to put a wand into your heart and use spells?"

"At least I've never heard of it."

Since it is also difficult to do it through the curse, the only explanation is to use brute force and stab the wand directly into Mr. Terrance's chest.

But who would do that?
