Chapter 210: Thorns and Dragons (14)

Change)

————

Unexpectedly, in the end, he was defeated by the full attendance award.

Without much hesitation, Cecil described in detail all the features in his mind about Qiao Shi'an's appearance.

"Huh?"

I don't know what suddenly came to mind, and after a little thought, his voice suddenly rose up, and there was obvious excitement in his tone, which made Cecil stunned.

"The guy you're talking about, but there's a red tear mole under the corner of his left eye?"

"Ah...... Yes. ”

After a little recollection, although he didn't understand what the other party's strange appearance was, Cecil still replied truthfully.

You must know that the Bloods have a special ability, that is, they can obtain a part of the memories of the other party from the blood of their prey.

So although Qiao Shi'an was tightly covered, Cecil still spied the girl's true face from the last memory of the waiter's life.

It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a national gesture.

Especially the tear mole in the corner of the eye, which adds a lot of charm to his appearance.

"Is that her...... the man on the other side muttered in a low voice, "I already know the identity of the girl." ”

As if thinking about something, it took a while to slowly say a name that had been sealed for a long time.

"She's the daughter of the Simon family, Lana Frey Simon."

"Lana......?" Repeating the name silently, some distant memories suddenly flashed through his mind, and Cecil was shocked, "Isn't she the famous sleeping princess in the legend!" ”

“…… Yes, it was her. ”

"So that legend is true!"

I think he used to listen to it as a bedtime story, but he didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet a real person today.

Think about it, what's going on with a little excitement?

"Huh, legend?"

There was a faint sigh in the air, keenly noticed by Cecil.

Could it be that there was an intersection between these two people?

A trace of doubt crossed his heart, and Cecil maintained that just right amount of amazement on his face, trying to get more useful information from the other party's mouth.

In order to hide a secret buried in his heart, even if it is a little clue, he will try to dig them out as much as possible.

Cecil blinked, hiding the calculations that had been hidden deep in his eyes.

"The legend is naturally true, but why, it is not even a hundred years ago, why did she suddenly wake up, and even ran here alone, is it ......?"

The other man's voice was so low that Cecil could only hear the first sentence clearly, and he didn't hear what he said later.

Suppressing the anxiety and excitement in his heart, Cecil opened his mouth again to ask.

"And why did she come here?"

You know, this town is far from the territory of the Kingdom of Simon.

How the hell did she get here on her own?

Or in the case of injuries on the body.

Oh, what? You ask Cecil how he found out about the little girl's injury?

That's thanks to his biological instincts, of course.

Don't underestimate the noses of vampires, their sense of smell is a hundred times more sensitive than that of dogs when it comes to "food".

Not to mention that Qiao Shi'an's blood is also different from other humans.

“……”

As if he hadn't listened to what he said, he didn't reply for a long time.

If it weren't for the faint pain that a nerve in his mind was still compressed, Cecil would have almost thought that the other party had broken the line.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency?"

“……”

After a brief silence, Cecil began to get a little impatient.

Tut.

Is the old guy asleep?

Although I really want to be bold enough to cut off contact with that person, anyway, in the current situation, I don't think the other party will blame me.

But in order to learn more, Cecil endured the stinging pain in his head and persisted in calling the man's name.

“…… My lord, Lord Kestan? Are you listening? ”

Often, it is not permissible to call your boss by name when making secret communications, as there is a high risk of being overheard.

Therefore, Cecil's behavior would be disrespectful in normal times, but now he can't control it so much.

Just the appearance of that girl can already shake this person's emotions, so he has to fight for whatever he says.

Gritting his teeth, Cecil called out the man's name again.

“…… Didn't I tell you, Cecil, not to say my name at will? ”

Finally, the man called Kistan spoke.

As if he had finally woken up from his memories, his tone was a little tired, and he didn't even mean to pursue Cecil's fault, just a sentence, and didn't say anything more.

"I'm sorry, sir."

With a look of genuine fear on his face, Cecil lowered his head and hurriedly apologized.

There was peace in his heart, and with what he knew about this man, he knew that the man did not mean to blame him.

However, the superficial work still has to be done.

"I saw that you didn't reply for a long time, and I thought something was wrong, and I was worried, so I did something wrong."

“…… I'm fine. ”

Xu Cecil pretended to be too realistic, and the other party didn't notice anything wrong, but began to talk about a forgotten story like opening a conversation.

"Compare this, Cecil, let me tell you what your so-called legend is trying to hide."

Hearing this, he silently adjusted his kneeling position, and Cecil was ready to kneel for a long time.

"Your Excellency, please."

There seemed to be a long sigh, as if to set off the background of the story, and the man's usual indifferent voice was also stained with a bit of desolation.

"That was almost a hundred years ago......"

At that time, the Simon Kingdom was only a small country with a weak strength, and in this land of extremely uneven snobbery, surrounded by some violent and brutal empires and races, the Simon Kingdom could only barely maintain its difficult survival by relying on vassal countries.

The treasury is empty, the forces are weak, and it is only a matter of time before such a country is swallowed up by other countries.

Fortunately, the ruler of the kingdom at that time, Simon II, was a rare and virtuous king.

"It's just that I really didn't expect that one day I would be immersed in those boring memories." There was a hint of self-deprecation and loneliness in Kistan's tone, and it seemed that it was only at this moment, at this moment, that Cecil suddenly realized that this old guy had been alone for long enough.

It's really, inexplicably pathetic.

After a while, his eyes blinked lightly, and the man exhaled silently, suppressing the dark red under his eyes, until his eyes returned to their normal blue, and then continued his movements.
