Chapter 16: The Curse

After finding a small restaurant outside the Howard Library for a quick bite to eat, Sharan and Coco returned to the library to continue their studies.

This time, Yi Wen simply sat opposite Shalan, and the two of them sat opposite each other, reading and studying together, but they had a three-point academic atmosphere out of thin air.

"Rustling ......"

After drawing a full stop, Sharan put down her pen, stretched out, and finally finished reading these two books, and put many points together in a notebook, the two-finger-thick notebook was completely full of things, almost another tome.

Closing her eyes, leaning back in her chair to soothe her tired eyes and her right hand for writing, it took a long time for Sharan to open her eyes, and at this time, it was precisely when Ewen closed her book of "Loma Epic" and raised her head, and the two of them looked at each other, and both showed a hint of a smile.

"Shalan, we're closing. ”

"Well, I'm done reading the book too, and I'm going back. ”

"Okay, goodbye, be careful on the road. ”

"Thank you, you should rest early. ”

Saying goodbye to each other, Sharan packed up her things and left the library with her bag after putting the books on the table back on the shelves.

Walking on the marble staircase outside the library gate, Sharan turned his head to look at the Howard Library, which was gradually extinguishing the lights, and couldn't help muttering, "I'll see you tomorrow." ”

Taking a deep breath of the night breeze, Sharan walked over to the car waiting at the bottom of the stairs and got into the car back to the Weynman Manor.

After returning home, he first took the initiative to meet Luo Er and talked about today's study progress, and the father and son talked for a while, and then Shalan returned to his room.

Under Sally's service, she bathed and changed her clothes, put on a comfortable nightgown, and then sat at the desk and took a sip of the milk tea brought by Sally to relieve the fatigue of a day's study.

"Sally, what happened in the house today, how do I see the servants in the house are a little nervous. ”

Hearing Shalan's inquiry, Sally immediately stepped forward, stood beside Shalan, and while adding milk tea to Shalan's cup, she whispered to Shalan: "Young Master Shalan, today the Berman steward rectified the servants of the manor and drove away many people, I don't know many of those people, but the few I know belong to those who are completely loyal to the countess.

And from what I have heard from others, the servants who had followed the Countess for many years from the Franklin family were also expelled from the estate by the Berman butlers, nominally to return them to the Franklins, but in fact it was known that those people were abandoned. ”

When Sharan heard Sally's words, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she nodded and said, "Then there is no objection from the countess's side?"

"Neither the Countess nor Master Shaman came forward, but the personal maid beside the Countess came forward, and she originally wanted to gather those servants against the Berman butler, but she never wanted to be quickly controlled by Lord Hasd and the manor guards, and in the end they could only let the Berman butler and Lord Hasd drive them away, and they didn't dare to say a word. ”

Nodding, Sharan knew that it was his father Rohr who made the move, and Berman, the right-hand man, and the family knight Hasted shot at the same time, if there was no support from his father, Count Rohr, there would be a ghost.

"So, there's nothing to say from the countess's side?"

Sally listened to Shalan's words, he thought for a moment, and spoke again: "It's not that there isn't, according to what the other servants said, the countess didn't eat dinner with the earlmaster tonight, but ordered the kitchen to be sent to her room, but the young master Shaman had dinner with the earl as usual, and he didn't look unusual. ”

"It's not too stupid, this kind of ability to be measured is really worthy of the Franklin family. ”

As soon as the words fell, Sha Lan waved his hand to let Sally retreat, he quickly finished the refreshments and drank the milk tea, and after Sally packed up her things, he took out his notes and continued to read.

"I'm almost done learning what I need to learn, and I have to say that my learning ability is indeed a little strong, but that's fine, otherwise I'm alone, and if I don't have anything to rely on, it's not good to survive in this bizarre world. ”

Putting down the notebook, Sharan thought about it, and directly asked Sally to leave his room to rest, and after Sally left the room, he took out a blank piece of paper and wrote the memorized piece of paper, that is, the three hundred and twenty-seven words of the same Mansmei language system as the stone, on the paper in order.

Looking at the three hundred and twenty-seven words of Mance on the paper, Sharan closed his eyes and immersed himself in his mind, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already turned on his ability to the maximum, so that the originally unfamiliar Mance American language became extremely proficient under the opening of the ability, and he picked up the pen and began to translate the three hundred and twenty-seven Manse American words according to the two reading directions on the notebook.

As soon as the last word was written on the paper, Sharan immediately put down the pen and stopped using the ability, at which point he only felt a sudden pain in his head, and a nosebleed slowly flowing from his nostrils.

Taking out a towel and covering her nose, Sharan closed her eyes and rested quietly for a while, then opened her eyes and looked at the white paper in her hand.

At this time, there are two completely different translations written on the white paper, and in some places on the two translations, there are traces of Sha Lan's smearing with a pen, removing the smeared places, combining the two translations, Sha Lan successfully interpreted the most accurate result, which is also the reason why he turned on the ability just now, only with the strong analysis and reasoning ability under the full opening of the ability, he can synthesize the two translations in a short time to find the real correct result.

After reading the translation on the blank paper, Sharan put down the blank paper and muttered to himself: "Sure enough, it's a curse, Vanessa, that woman is really not so kind, but looking at her so persistent, does this curse really work? If it works, why haven't I felt anything wrong in the past two days?"

Reaching out and taking out the metal box containing the stone from the innermost part of the drawer, Sharan took out the stone from the box and carved the spell in the Mansmei language, and played with it up and down in his hand, he did not understand how this stone alone could guarantee the success of the curse if it really existed.

It's just that Shalan, who was concentrating on observing the stone, didn't see it, and when he took out the stone, a trace of almost invisible black smoke escaped from the spell carved on the stone, forming a human-shaped shadow behind Shalan, which seemed to be absent and disappeared.
