Section 35 Motive

"Run away!" said Serena sadly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Ahh

"Grandmother is going to marry me off to the son of the Demon Lord," she said in annoyance, "and I don't agree, so I have to come out." ”

"Merus, Dagon is a famous demon, how can you marry the son of a demon, that would be tantamount to sending you to hell, it's really vicious, has she considered your feelings?" Rex said angrily.

Serena shook her head and looked at Rex sadly, silent for a while, her eyes showing an indefinable grievance and sadness. Her eyes began to redden, and tears were spoking down her face, and Rex reached out to wipe away the tears that were coming from her, but she deliberately avoided them, lowered her head to wipe them herself, and then looked up and forced a smile, "I understand that Grandmother is doing this purely for the sake of the future of the Brotherhood. ”

"I don't agree with you," Rex said crudely, "and there will be a future for the Brotherhood by marrying demons? ”

"Yes! It's completely illogical!" Ville echoed questioningly.

Serena sighed softly, her face sad and depressed. She said slowly, "You two are on a mission all year round, and you don't know much about the situation in the Templar. In recent years, the Assassin League has been in danger of splitting, with Shadingher's control over the other sanctuaries becoming weaker and weaker, and the authority of the Nightmother being challenged. The branch shelters are secretly recruiting troops to increase their strength, and they may betray the Night Mother at any time. If the enemy attacks Shatinhel at this time, there is a good chance that the Dark Brotherhood will be dismantled. ”

"I've heard about other shelter recruits, and I didn't expect it to be so serious!" Rex said worriedly.

"Grandmother feared this situation the most, and in order to cement Shatinher's dominance, she decided to cooperate with the Demon Lord and ally with the Skeleton Legion. And so, she asked me to marry War Bear, the son of Merus Dagon. ”

"It's so hateful, how could she bear to abandon you like this?" said Rex, gritting his teeth. "The Demon Lord is a cunning demon, you can't cooperate with them, and you can't marry a demon!"

"I know I'm not going to give in. Serena's tone was heavy and irreresistible, "I want to live my life according to my own will. ”

"Well done. Rex exclaimed, "I'm so proud of you, Serena. The Brotherhood is important, but at the cost of your happiness it will be strong, I would rather it be divided, even if it is destroyed, I do not want to sacrifice you, I swear by my life to protect you for the rest of my life. ”

Serena was deeply moved, took Rex's hand and choked up, "Thank you for always comforting me and encouraging me." Like Sahn!"

Rex patted the back of her hand gently and asked softly, "Hey, speaking of which, have you seen Sahn?"

"No, I heard from the maid that he had returned to the Sanctuary. Serena let go of her hand, looked him in the eye and asked, "Did he come back with you?" I begged him to bring you back. ”

"We came back together, but we were attacked. Rex said.

"Attacked?" exclaimed Serena, "when?"

"Two days ago, on the way back to Shadingher, he was attacked by the enemy due to negligence. I was held in a secret cell, thanks to Vir for saving me. ”

"Thank you for saving Rex!" she expressed her gratitude to Will.

Will shrugged.

"I don't understand why Sarn is fine. Do you know who attacked you?" she asked Rex.

"It's night...!" Rex interrupts Will and winks at him, and Will understands, immediately lowering his head and continuing to eat the apple pie.

"I don't know, I don't see clearly, they're too fast!" Rex hurriedly explained.

Serena's gaze wandered over the faces of the two of them, "Hmm, damn it! I think someone is deliberately targeting you, so we have to be careful." ”

"I understand. Rex said.

Will listened to their conversation and ate non-stop.

Serena's face shone brightly, and she was no longer gloomy. "Where have you been for so long?" she asked, "Why did you leave Shadinher?"

"Just leave for the time being, listen to me explain. Rex was anxious to prove his intentions, "I went to Mount Hrosgar, where I learned dragon roar magic from Graybeard. ”

"What, you're learning magic from Graybeard?" said Serena.

Rex smiled and nodded, "I'll tell you a secret, I'm actually a Soul Eater. ”

"What's that," Serena asked, "tell me about it!"

"A Soul Eater is a person who devours the soul of a dragon, but it is up to the dragon to decide who becomes a Soul Eater. I remember when I saved you in the Ice Plain, the soul of the frost dragon entered my body? ”

"Of course I remember, I was so impressed. ”

"Yes, the frost dragon chose me. Those it chooses will be able to learn dragon roar magic. ”

"Really?" she said happily, "Rex, you're amazing, what magic did you learn?"

"Two, Soul Shaker and Whirlwind Hurry. Rex said proudly, "It's a lot of magic, and it's going to blow your mind." ”

The three of them chatted happily, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the house. Someone shouted, "The guards are coming!" Before the words could be finished, five elven guards with bows and arrows on their backs and golden blades in their hands burst in, rushing up to surround them, and warning in a loud voice, "You committed a crime in Morrowind and threatened Solaine, the owner of the Frostmoon Tavern, what else do you have to say?"

Rex didn't expect the Humpty Dumpty to call the guards, and he looked over the counter to see Solaien looking vengeful and distrauded.

Rex was unhurried, he calmly explained to the guards, "Sir, we don't mean to be offended, you see, it's getting dark, we just want to find a safe place to sleep comfortably, and don't dare to cause trouble." ”

"Yes, he's going to chase us away. Serena pointed to Solen at the counter and complained, "We've already paid. ”

"No!" shouted Solinen excitedly, "Sir, get them up and put them in jail, they're all murderous demons!" ”

The confused guards shouted that they were about to do something.

The situation is critical, and Serena and Will look nervously at Rex, as if asking what to do. Rex grabbed the arms of the two.

"Damn it, all stand up, don't try to play tricks, to disobey us is to defy the law. The guards warned loudly.

"Yes, sir. Rex grinned and stood up, "We obey orders. ”

The two were baffled by his behavior, but stood up obediently. At this time, one of the guards took out three pairs of shackles and prepared to cuff them.

"Is it all right, Serena, Vir, let's go. Rex said quietly. The two were at a loss, not understanding what Rex was going to do. I saw him facing the door, and suddenly there was a roar, and the three of them flew away like a tornado, disappearing into thin air.

In the living room, everyone was in an uproar. The guards were completely stunned, staring at each other and not understanding what was happening. Solaine angrily complained that the guards were too slow to react and let them escape.

The night shrouded the heavens and the earth, a bright moon as white as a silver disk shone in the air, the surrounding clouds floated by, and the starry sky shone like a brilliant diamond. In the moonlight, the woods were clearly discernible and the road was very clear, and Rex led the two men on a wild run until they stopped on the banks of the Rugashur River, and when he looked back and saw that the guards were chasing him, he breathed a sigh of relief, and threw them apart and gasped violently on the ground.

Serena crouched down, put her arm on his shoulder, and asked with concern, "How are you?"

"No, it's okay, just take a break. Rex said intermittently.

Will looked around, looked at the road again, and said lightly, "We've got rid of those guys, master, and I don't think they'll come after them again." ”

"Okay, let's rest where we are. Rex said, "Think about what to do next!"

"What's your plan?" asked Serena.

"I'm going to save someone," Rex replied, "an Imperial, her name is Katerina, and she's locked up in the Templar. ”

"Ahh I know. Serena exclaimed, "The girl who came back with Sahn, I saw her." Imprisoned by Engier, they say she's an enemy, but I don't think so!"

"Caterina is also a Soul Eater, and we learned dragon roar magic together with Graybeard. "She was caught trying to help me, so I had to get her out." ”

"So, it was the Assassins who attacked you, and Engier took her for a traitor. Oh, I see, he attacked you, right?" Serena asked.

"Actuallyβ€”" Rex tried to hide.

"You don't have to hide it, I know they did it, Grandmother and the Senate misunderstood you," Serena became agitated, "I explained to them that you would not betray the Brotherhood, but they just didn't believe it, needless to say that it was 100% done by Engier to imprison you." ”

"It's not exactly him, it's the Night Mother's conspiracy!" Vir couldn't help but blurt out.

It's too late for Rex to stop him. Serena was shocked and couldn't believe what Vir was saying, and she asked word by word, "What did you say?"

Realizing that he had slipped his mouth, Will hurriedly shut up and refused to say anything more. Seeing this, Rex felt that there was no point in hiding it any longer, so he told Serena all the details of their troubles in Trast Harbor, the battle against Captain Marcus, the attack on their way back to Chardinher, and their subsequent imprisonment in a secret cell, and Will's secret rescue of him.

When she heard this, she fell to the ground. "How can this be, are you telling the truth?" and she looked at Rex with a fierce look in her eyes.

"Nope. Rex waved his hand, "I don't want revenge, although she killed my parents, she also nurtured me." She can be ruthless, I can't get carried away. I thought about saving Catalina and severing ties with the Brotherhood away from Shatinher. ”

"But... οΌŒβ€

"No, however, your brother Sarn will be an excellent leader, and he will be a perfect fit for any position. It is his responsibility to inherit the Night Mother, and he must accept the arrangement of fate. Otherwise, if the infighting continues, the brotherhood will really collapse. ”

Serena is conflicted and overjoyed to learn that Sarn is her own brother, but the Night Mother is devastated by her desire to kill her friend.
