After experiencing the previous foreshadowing, Su Tang can more or less guess why.

"Killing the humans in the castle is to maintain the curse, right?"

"That's right." Edmund replied to her directly, "But in fact, atavism is not only in Case's body. In ancient books, Cain was born to five children after a long wandering, married to a human woman, and the younger son shared most of his curse, and at first, Cain was very happy, believing that the younger son's excellent talent would allow his descendants to share more of the curse for themselves, but Cain later neglected to maintain the curse in time, resulting in the death of the younger son. ”

Edmund sighed.

"Because the curses on the youngest son were so great, when he died, he returned to Cain's body with all the curses, and the other four brothers died together."

Su Tang swallowed her saliva, she didn't expect the matter about Keith to be so serious, "So it means that if Keith doesn't continue to maintain the curse, will the five highnesses die?" ”

"If it's just like this, with the character of the king, he will probably kill Keith directly, and let the power be reshuffled back into his hands, because the eldest brother has become stronger and stronger, and even the father can only put on a superficial face." Edmund couldn't help but sigh when he said this, "For that man, our lives don't matter at all. ”

"The real reason why all of us are so jealous of Keith is because in the ancient books, it is said that after the death of the youngest son, 'all the curses' returned to Cain's body."

Su Tang finally understood what Edmund really meant, "Are you saying that the entire blood clan will die together?" ”

"That's right." Edmund nodded, "Keith can now be said to be the death of the blood clan, related to the fate of the entire blood clan, so on the day of judgment, we must succeed, we will repeat the process of Cain killing Abel through the ritual of having Keith kill humans, because we found that just sucking blood can no longer maintain the huge curse on Keith's body, but the problem is that with the concentration of Cain's blood on Keith, he is by no means enough to be considered Cain himself, even if Abel reappears in the world, Keith will not be able to kill him." ”

"Isn't that a dead end? What are you going to do? ”

Remember the five children born to Cain? Those five children were Cain's direct bloodline, and if the five of them were together, they would definitely be identified as Cain. That's why there must be five princes, all so that on the day of judgment, we can briefly become those five people through rituals, so that Keith can maintain the curse. So even if it's a hybrid like me mixed with human blood, they're going to live and take me back to the castle. ”

After listening, Su Tang only felt that the amount of information was too much, let her slowly, she was vaguely aware that there was indeed a huge secret in the castle, but she never expected that this secret was actually related to the level of etiquette of the entire race, in this comparison, Keith used her eyes in exchange at that time, it seemed that it was indeed a very big temptation.

Thinking of other people's strange behaviors, it didn't seem so incomprehensible, Su Tang sighed lightly and sighed, "So the truth is like this, no wonder Keith has been reluctant to tell me." ”

Seeing Su Tang's emotional appearance, Edmund was also a little worried that Su Tang would hate them because of this, so he couldn't help but defend Keith.

"Lauctia, that, Keith, he is just too lonely, because of the atavistic phenomenon, his original ability has been greatly enhanced, and even the ethereal thing like luck can be changed at will, even if it is just a subconscious thought, his luck will be realized for him through various means."

Recalling the events of that year, Edmund's voice also became irrepressibly low.

"It was already very difficult for him to control his mood at that time, let alone even his subconscious, so his luck killed his mother."

"I also learned this from my father, on Case's 40th birthday, just because of a small argument, he yelled at his mother in a fit of anger that I don't want to see you again, and the next moment, my mother vomited blood in front of him, and finally even the internal organs. Later, it was found out that a servant had given the wrong medicine, and he had wanted to kill his enemy with the poison disguised as blood, but he was mistakenly confused with his mother's dinner. ”

"Originally, the blood used in the royal family's dinner party should have been heavily guarded and screened layer by layer, but that bottle of poison was so unaware that it came to my mother's table because of various 'just coincidences', and activated the effect of the medicine after Keith lost his words."

Su Tang couldn't help but speak, this kind of luck is too terrifying, although it is indeed a good thing that wishes come true, but sometimes people will inevitably have some dark thoughts, if even these ideas are realized one by one, it is more of a disaster than good luck.

"That's why Keith's temperament has changed so much?"

"Well, after that, Keith closed himself off and had a very strange temper, and if anyone provoked him in the slightest, he would just kill that person without hesitation."

This is not surprising, Su Tang can even understand Keith's idea of doing this, rather than being kind to other people and then watching them die because of himself, it is better to cut off any kindness in the first place and become a villain who is completely heartless and feared by everyone.

But Keith was still too immature in the end.

"Mr. Edmund, thank you for telling me all this."

Edmund shook his head, "Claudia, I'm just a hypocrite, those humans in the castle, I can't save them, because if they live, it means we'll die." ”

"But you're different, you're an unexpected variable, and even if you're not in the castle, the ritual can go on normally, so if you want to go back to the human world, come to me."

The man showed a somewhat weak smile, too, for him who grew up in the human world, Aemond may identify more with his own part of being a human than his fellow vampires, so he wants to help Su Tang, who is also a human.

"Keith likes you very much, he can't bear to let you die, with me and Keith, it's very easy for you to leave the castle."

Edmund's blood-colored eyes fixed on her.

"Lauctia Jones, will you leave the castle?"
