Lucien took the ring and listened to Natasha's narration, and said with emotion: "The Grand Duchess is really a genius magician, she only won the highest honor in the field of elemental magic at the age of twenty-three, she should not be a high-level magician at that time, right?"

Natasha's smile was serene, as if she was caught up in the memories of her mother: "Mother used to say that everyone has their own strengths, and it depends on whether they can find out. After the Kingdom of Holm supported the Magic Council, many descendants of the royal family who could not stimulate the power of the blood had another choice, and many children who were ridiculed in knight training and combat practice later became outstanding magicians. My mother, who was originally physically weak and mentally weak, and could not stimulate the strength of her veins even with potions, was able to leave her own footprints on the path of magic, and she was only a beginner magician when she received the 'Holm Crown' award. ”

"It's a pity that her body and soul have been corrupted by all kinds of strange magical elements for many years, and coupled with the blow of her brother's call by the Lord, she has never been able to get out of the hospital bed after trying to advance to a high-ranking magician. ”

"The Grand Duchess has been studying magic?" Lucien was slightly surprised, but he thought that the church should turn a blind eye to such a special object.

Natasha wrinkled her nose and smiled, "If her father doesn't let her study magic, she might just take me and my brother back to Holm." When she was a child, the most impressive thing about her, in addition to the fact that she didn't seem to be able to get along with others, was the gloomy magic laboratory and the strange smell of potions. As for the church......"

"You should have a special meaning to Natasha...... this ring," Lucien looked at the ring.

Natasha also lowered her head and looked at the ring in Lucian's hand, smiling freely: "The ring is not important, what matters is my feelings for my mother." Wouldn't I miss her and think of her without the ring? Lucian, don't squirm like a girl. It is most suitable as a token related to magic. But it may also mean a certain amount of trouble, if you don't have too many problems. It's best not to take it to the Elemental Will organization or the Royal Magic Court of Holm. When you become a high-ranking mage, it will probably give you a good mentor. ”

Lucien was told by Natasha, shook his head and smiled and put the ring away: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness Princess." Hasn't the effect of the vampire's blood gone away? I'll carry you back to Aalto?"

"Gone. It's just that the sequelae have been suppressed temporarily, but there is no problem returning to Aalto by yourself, Lucien, you better leave quickly. I'm worried that the church might come to me at any time. Natasha waved her slender palm, "Don't worry about your identity, leave it to me." ”

"Can I continue to use Lucian Evans in the future?" Lucien planned to change his name and surname when he arrived in the Kingdom of Holm, so as not to implicate John and them, and he was inevitably a little surprised when he heard Natasha's words.

Natasha scoffed Lucien fiercely: "Do you think that Lucian Evans is a special common name? As long as you don't take the initiative to mention that you are a famous musician when you arrive in Holm, who will think of you? As for the identity of the musician Lucien Evans, it is actually a good cover-up. Maybe you'll be able to come in handy back to the Storm Channel later. As for how to keep 'him' alive for a long time, as long as you send me some new music once in a while, I'll take care of it. ”

"I'm probably going to concentrate on the study and research of magic in the future, and there will probably be very little music. Lucien knew that a well-known identity on the surface would be of great use in the future, but he was still a little hesitant.

"It's good to keep one work for a few years. I believe in your musical talent. Of course, if you don't want to, forget it. Natasha said forget it, but her eyes were unusually bright.

Lucien replied vaguely, "I try." "I'm planning to use music in my spare time to reconcile the fatigue of studying magic, and I'm probably going to be able to slowly turn to originality.

After agreeing on how to send the letter to Natasha, Lucien put away the "Fireweaver's Bracelet", Aaron's second-level medium-sized transcendent weapon "Debilitating Dagger", Cold Iron Dagger, etc., and took the injured "Vigilance" sword to say goodbye to Natasha: "I hope to see you again in the future, Your Highness the Princess." ”

The heavy three-headed flail was not only difficult for Lucien to use, but also inconvenient to carry, so it was left to Natasha.

Natasha didn't have much parting emotion, just smiled and said, "Just call me Natasha." I'll take care of your friends. ”

"Thank you, Natasha. Lucien thanked him sincerely.

Turning around, just after taking two steps, Lucien heard Natasha's voice from behind: "Lucian......"

"What?" Lucien looked back at her strangely.

Natasha smiled softly: "Remember, life shouldn't be all about magic, but also about music, and about friends and laughter. ”

"I'll remember. Lucien smiled and nodded in response.

............

Watching Lucian's back turn into a faint light and disappear into the Black Forest, Natasha's smile retracted and said solemnly: "Come out, you've been listening to it for a long time." ”

"Your Royal Highness, Princess, your instincts are really sharp. In the dark mid-air, a transparent figure appeared without warning and slowly became clear, it was Salvatore, the "Bearer" in a white bishop's robe, with a white handkerchief tied around his wrist with black gloves, "Lady Camille chased in the wrong direction and chased them to the side of the Wynne Knights." Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise I would have known from your conversation that the 'Professor' turned out to be just an ordinary magician. Hmph, how embarrassing it is for an ordinary mage to dare to play with and mock us Night's Watch like this! Not only did he cost me all of my teammates, but he also became the 359th target of the Purification Sequence. ”

His anger was palpable.

Natasha looked at him with an indifferent expression: "You didn't do it just now. It seems that anger didn't destroy your sanity, maybe you have something else to say?"

Salvador, who was floating in mid-air, looked condescendingly in the direction where Lucien had left: "I can see that Your Royal Highness the Princess attaches great importance to 'Mr. Professor', so I want a deal to help you hide the fact that the genius musician Lucien is the evil magician 'Professor'." ”

His anger vanished without a trace, and his body was enveloped in scorching light. Although Natasha didn't wear blood dragon armor, she couldn't fight in mid-air at all, and she who knew how to fly had the advantage. But it's always good to be careful, what if Natasha suddenly throws the Thundering Sword?

"Your team is really unfortunate. Natasha commented briefly.

Salvatore laughed lightly: "My belief in helping them take revenge is very strong, but revenge can be postponed, and the opportunity to cooperate with Her Royal Highness the Princess, who is valued by Her Majesty the Pope, is difficult to find if you miss it." This is the best way to realize the ideal world that I have been striving for. The reason why I gave up my position as an upright bishop and became a night watchman who walked in darkness was because ......"

"I don't want to hear about your painful past. Natasha stopped Salvador's tirade.

Salvador smiled unmindingly: "Her Royal Highness the princess is really direct and decisive. What do I want to trade...... You?!"

Before he finished speaking, he was stunned to see Natasha fly in front of him, and the "Thundering Sword" slashed through from bottom to top.

A fiery and terrifying crack appeared above the scorching light, slicing it in half, along with Salvador.

Natasha stood in the air, her beautiful silver-purple eyes staring coldly at Salvador in disbelief: "I never accept threats. ”

Salvador saw in a trance that the soul of his faith was split and shattered, and the residual consciousness at the end of the day turned into an ethereal voice: "Heavenly Knight?"

Natasha quietly watched Salvador disappear into a little holy light, and showed a heartfelt smile: "Aunt Camille is safe." But I knew they would come so soon. Lucien and I don't have to work so hard, just run away for a while longer. ”

After waiting for maybe ten minutes, Camille in a long black dress flew over from the other side of the Black Forest, carrying the unconscious Wynne and Yakasia, her dull seriousness became gentle and kind: "I can use this danger to straighten out my blood and fuse my will." Natasha, you deserve to be a genius knight. ”

"This is thanks to your teaching, the teacher and Aunt Camille. Natasha wanted to respond with a smile, but her expression became a little sentimental when Camille's words brought back her previous memories.

The two arrived at Aalto just as the sun was rising, and Natasha comforted His Majesty, who was worried and angry, and went straight to the Golden Cathedral.

In a confessional room, Natasha finds Salde, who is praying quietly.

"Your Excellency Cardinal Tsarde, I would like to be honest before the Lord about one thing. "Natasha is indeed a devout believer.

Salde opened his increasingly cloudy eyes, "What's the matter?"

Natasha drew a cross on her chest: "I killed the Lord's guard in the darkness, Mr. Salvador." ”

"You're using honesty, not repentance?" Salder didn't show any mood swings even when he heard that a fifth-level Night Watch captain had been killed.

Natasha nodded solemnly: "Yes, I don't regret it." But I know that this is a very serious mistake, and that my knight's creed does not allow me to conceal it, and that I am willing to accept punishment. ”

"Why did you kill him?" Salde continued.

Natasha was silent and did not answer.

Salde stood up, he seemed to be more than ten years old compared to yesterday: "I will tell His Majesty the Pope, and he will make the punishment for you, Natasha, you wait patiently for an hour." ”

When Salde left, the hot red veins on Natasha's hands and face bulged, making her beautiful face distorted and hideous, giving people a feeling of extreme pain, but Natasha gritted her teeth and knelt in front of the cross like this, without snorting in pain.

............

In the simple and bright study, a white-haired and kind old man dressed in an ordinary priest's robe whispered to the cardinal in front of him: "The Lord will forgive everyone who repents, Natasha can confess her mistakes, and she has advanced to the Heavenly Knight, so she will not be punished too severely, and she will be trained as an ascetic monk at the bottom of the Aalto Monastery for three years." ”

"Yes, His Majesty. The cardinal slowly exited the room,

The kind old man picked up the stack of manuscripts he had put down earlier, and there were some inexplicable things recorded on it:

"The target person doesn't seem to be averse to my speech. "...... often has times when he is emotionally confused......"......

"Maybe he's a little shaken. ”......

............

Lucien followed Natasha's instructions to prevent tracking, and rushed back in the Black Forest towards the town of Massawa, but the distance between the two places was so far that he did not return to the town until after nine o'clock on a sunny day. However, Lucien did not directly enter the hotel room, but after burning the black robe in a hidden place, he walked towards the main entrance of the hotel wearing a black shirt with a wide open neckline.

In the panicked hotel hall, Lucien did not notice Joyce and the other mercenaries and the coachman, so he asked the innkeeper, "I want to know where my mercenaries Joyce and they went? I just went out for a walk in the early morning and came back and couldn't find them?"

Last night, it was the boss who personally opened the door for Lucien, so he naturally recognized him, and replied a little embarrassed and funny: "In the morning, many adventurers poured into the town, and the panic was transmitted to everyone, making the town a mess. Joyce: They didn't find your honored guest in the room, and they all thought that you had been kidnapped by a and treacherous adventurer, so they all fled, fearing that they would be held responsible. ”

Lucien held back a smile: "It's really bad news, I had to hire mercenaries and carriages again." However, it was my negligence that I forgot to tell them, please boss you notify the adventurer's guild, and say that I terminated the contract early so that they would not become fugitives. ”

"You are such a kind gentleman. The boss took the pen and paper and praised.

Leaving his signature and seal on paperwork, Lucien went back to his room to change his clothes and prepare to start his own trip.
