Chapter 10 Christine (I)

The bathroom was quiet, and only when you listened down, you could hear the long, low breathing, and our masseur actually fell asleep in the bathtub!

Maybe she was too tired, but fortunately the temperature of the water was constant by magic, and fortunately the water was added to the holy water, and her face, which had turned pale from exhaustion, was rosy again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's just that the little eyebrows that are wrinkled from time to time indicate that she is not sleeping soundly, as if she is having a nightmare, or maybe she remembers something unhappy.

Christine's father was a field viscount, and there were no cherished minerals in the territory, and there were many poor mountains and bad waters, and he could not even be self-sufficient in food.

Luckily, the Viscount's domain borders the Echo Forest, which is home to a branch of the High Elves, the Moonlight Elves, known for producing crafts and magical items.

Especially magic items, each of which can be called a fine item. So no matter how much output there is, it will be digested quickly.

Every year, a large number of caravans pass through the viscountydom, making the viscounty extremely prosperous.

However, this prosperity is illusory, and the viscount himself is only level 13 and is over fifty years old. With the continuous decline of his physical functions, he even maintained his level 13 fighting qi quite reluctantly.

For a noble territory that can barely be maintained by trade routes, the viscounty does not have a strong army. In addition to the castle's 150-man guard, only a 600-strong militia remained, as well as a number of knights and knights.

In the eyes of the viscount, the territory has no value to occupy, and because it is next to the powerful Echo Forest, it has also lost the value of exploitation, allowing the viscount to survive in the cracks.

In this world where there is no power, there is no dignity. The viscount has no dignity in his own territory, at most relying on the wealth brought by the trade routes, and lives decently.

The caravans that dare to trade with the moonlight elves are all powerful and can only be looked up to by the viscount, and the steward of any caravan can ignore the authority of the viscount.

Over time, the viscount stopped dealing with caravans, hid in the castle, and lived a 'decent' life.

The Viscount had three children, Christine had an older brother and a younger brother.

At a very young age, her brother showed a good talent for magic and was accepted as an apprentice by a noble archmage.

Even in the kingdom, the status of the Grand Magister is extremely noble, in terms of status, far higher than the viscount.

When her brother pursued magic, Christine had no memory, so she had limited memories of her brother, who was five years older than herself. Christine's biggest impression of her brother, who only comes home once every few years, is Mune, and she looks very arrogant in the short contact.

In a recent letter, it is said that the elder brother has become a level 11 mage, which is still very talented, as he is only 27 years old.

If you can't enter the holy realm before the age of 45, your physical functions will begin to decline, and it will be difficult to make any further progress in your life.

The priest is a profession of accumulation, and after the age of thirty, the power begins to erupt like a well, so as long as the life does not stop, the priest can continue to be strong until it is extraordinary.

Christine also has a younger brother who is 3 years younger than herself, and because the eldest son embarked on the path of pursuing the truth of magic, the viscount took the younger son as his successor, and began to train the lord at a very young age.

As lords and nobles, their own force is indispensable, and in the dark ages when mankind is still living in dire straits, the predecessors of nobles are knights, and they are the leaders of the struggle against foreign races.

In that dark age, human beings were enslaved and oppressed by various alien races. It was also an era of heroes, and countless knights paved a bloody road one after another, and the end of the bloody road was the Rising Sun, the first empire of mankind.

Only then was humanity recognized by all intelligent races, and had a place in the Candohertz continent, with the right to make their voices heard.

Even after tens of thousands of years, the nobility has maintained a tradition of bravery and courage. Even if the nobles have begun to degenerate, the nobles who can't fight will still be ridiculed by everyone.

Some nobles who also possessed blood, such as the Grand Duke of Thorns, would also lead their warriors and charge their enemies.

Christine's younger brother, at the age of five, began to receive various trainings. Christine was intrigued and did some simple training with her brother.

The viscount was noncommittal about his daughter's behavior, and there were not a few women who were awarded titles of nobility by force.

In the few ancient top-level nobles, the selection of heirs is not divided between men and women, and in those families, there are even more strong women than men. As a vulnerable group, women can only control their own destiny if they are strong enough.

Maybe it was a joke played by fate, maybe Christine's talent was strong enough, and after only a year of simple training, the 9-year-old Christine exploded into vindictiveness.

At that time, the viscount was very surprised, thinking that the ancient bloodline of the family had begun to awaken, and then there was a son with a talent for magic, and a genius Christine.

Before the heat of surprise subsided, the bad news came - Christine's vindictive spirit was detected to be a life attribute.

Since then, the viscount has hidden Christine in the castle, and her life has become boring and boring, that is, a kind of seclusion in disguise.

At that time, Christine was still very naïve, unable to understand her father's behavior at all, and even resented the viscount for a while.

Perhaps the talent is too strong, even without systematic training, Christine was promoted to level 11 at the age of 15.

The viscount, who knew about this, began to be anxious, although the news was blocked by himself, but there was no impermeable wall in the world.

The viscount knew that when his daughter reached level 12, it was not something he could hide, especially since Christine was still so young.

The viscount's anxiety did not show it, and he only inquired about the news in secret, even if he couldn't keep his daughter, he couldn't let his daughter be hurt.

During a banquet to attend the coming-of-age ceremony of the duke's youngest son, the viscount heard some information about the void in the communication of some big people, and it was said that the void was recruiting some rare special talents.

The Viscount didn't know what the Void was, only heard some legends, in which the Void was a symbol of fairness, and the Viscount only had two words left in his heart - the Void, perhaps this was Christine's last hope.

The Viscount is an old-fashioned and strict man, because of his own incompetence, he has great expectations for his children, and at the same time, he is also a real father with selfless love for his children.

In order for the eldest son to learn magic, the viscount filled in most of the savings accumulated over the years, and this is a black hole, and more gold will be squeezed from the viscount in the future.

And the remaining wealth was used by the viscount to buy a channel of communication with the Void.

15-year-old Christine has grown into a very cute little beauty, and her figure is even better, not only tall, but also graceful.

Suddenly, one day, Christine received a notice from the housekeeper that she was going to meet a distinguished guest with her father today.

Christine, who had not seen an outsider for many years, was stunned, quickly dressed herself up and came to the Viscount's side.

The viscount was in a very good mood today, and after looking at Christine carefully, he rubbed her head with a smile and said, "My Christine has grown into a great beauty." ”

Christine is also very happy, because from today onwards, she is allowed by her father to come and go freely in and out of the castle... She's free!

Christine felt that her father's attitude was strange today, but then she began to think about her own thoughts, but she forgot... His own father hadn't laughed in a long time.

Christine followed the viscount and waited for her distinguished guests at the gate of the castle, the sun shining warmly on her body.

After the excitement, Christine began to fall asleep, only a shadow suddenly obscured the sunlight. Christine looked curiously into the sky, and then her big beautiful eyes were filled with shock.
