readx;?“ Mother of the Messiah?" Ian was stunned, "She never mentioned it to me, I thought"

"I think she's an orphan like you, right?" said Katrina softly, "it's not true, she has parents, but her parents are people the Stuart family doesn't want to talk about. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Why?"

"My uncle, the father of the Messiah, was a famous playboy in the imperial capital more than ten years ago. In fact, such a person is very common in the family of merchants, but in a family of hunters, and in the heyday of the four princes, it is an exaggeration to say that he is the shame of the family. Katrina told Ian about the past, "Grandpa didn't like him, and he had almost no rights in the family other than being the eldest son. But he didn't care, he played with his own, until one day, he met a woman. ”

"That's the mother of the Messiah?"

"Yes. Katrina nodded, "But the story between them is not like that of your parents, the mother of the Messiah is just a wandering warbler who travels to and from various places of communication, and my uncle is a playboy. So they had a relationship, not even love, and then gave birth to the Messiah. ”

Ian opened his mouth, not knowing what he was supposed to say.

"It's hard to believe that the birth of the current Eye of Heaven is so unbearable. "So in a sense, although you were born in the House of Stuart, the birth of the Messiah is far inferior to yours. After all, your father is a famous alchemy master, and your mother is one of the best dancers. And the Messiah's father is just a person who is disliked by the family, and his mother is even more despised by the big family. ”

Ian took a deep breath and calmed his heart a little: "And then?"

"My uncle brought the young Messiah back to the family because her mother was unwilling to raise her, and my uncle needed an heir. So the Messiah had the surname Stuart, but it became one of the scandals in the imperial capital at the time, after all, the eldest son of the Stuart family was unmarried but had offspring. The family was reluctant to take the child, but Grandpa suppressed all the gossip and let the Messiah stay in the family. A few years later, the previous generation of Heavenly Eyes chose the Messiah, making her the Heavenly Eye of this generation. ”

Ian nodded, "Who do you want me to meet, her father or mother?"

"Very smart. Katrina smiled, "My uncle has been transferred far away by the family, because grandpa doesn't want his personality to affect the Messiah. But the Messiah's mother is still in the imperial capital, you can go and find her, of course, it is better to hide it from the Messiah. ”

"Why?"

"I still don't know what kind of attitude she had towards her mother. Katrina said softly, "But I know that she occasionally asks the housekeeper about her mother." ”

"Is that so?" Ian hesitated and nodded, "I see, I'll go find her mother." ”

"Well, it's getting late, so I'll send you here. Messiah, I'll take care of it. Katrina frowned suddenly, "Who's there?!"

The man who came was Barton Hammer, the dwarven alchemist from Alder. Two years ago, he helped himself a lot, and finished the production of the Musk Moon Goddess for himself. It's just that Ian didn't expect him to be here.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Patton Hammer stepped out of the shadows, "I wrote to Calan, and Karan said to let me come here to find you. ”

Seeing that the two knew each other, Katrina retreated very interestingly. So in the silence of the manor, there were only two people left, and Barton looked up at Ian, who also looked down at him. After a few moments, the two of them laughed in unison.

"You are better than your father. "When I learned that you had become Lord of Thorns, I thought the messenger had a door in his head. ”

"Actually, I don't believe that there are many people who are better than me. ”

"You don't feel like your father at that. "He always thought he was invincible." ”

Every time he talks to Barton, Ian is in a good mood. Because he knew his father very well, he was one of the few people in the world who knew Yilin. According to him, when they were young, the two often hid in the underground alchemist, wearing their upper bodies, arguing for a long time over a simple theory, and finally even got to the level of a duel.

Barton scolds Ealing for being a "donkey", and Ealing says Piern is a "retarded person".

The two scolded each other for many, many years, but the relationship got better and better. So when Alder learns that Ian is Ealing's son, Barton always goes out of his way to help him.

After the two chatted for a while, they got to the point.

"Karan said you might go to the Burial God Desert to find the dwarves recently, didn't you?"

"I'm going to die in the desert, but not to find the dwarves. Ian said, "I'm going to find the power of God." ”

"Although I still don't know what the power of the gods is, if you are going to the Burial God Desert, you will not be able to avoid contact with the dwarves. "And my people seem to be in trouble." ”

"Trouble?"

"yes. Barton bowed his head and said, "Actually, I go to the Desert every year to have a look, but I don't go deeper. Although I would love to find my people, I would not have gone in and died without a hunter of the rank of a king. ”

"The dwarves are in the Burial Desert?"

"Yes. Barton nodded, "I can sense them, it's the privilege of the dwarves, as long as we are all standing on the ground, as long as we are not far apart, we can sense each other's presence." Every year I go to the edge of the Burial Desert to feel the breath of the people, who are still alive, though very weak. ”

"And what trouble are you talking about?"

"The breath is getting weaker and weaker. Barton whispered, "Their breath is getting weaker, and I can feel that my people are dying out rapidly. ”

Ian was stunned: "Can you feel this?"

"You're not a dwarf, of course you can't understand it. But that's the way it is, I can feel that they are facing a threat, a threat of extermination, and the threat is not from somewhere else, but from the land. "The earth is our faith, but I can feel that the earth is starting to get angry, and it wants to take revenge on everything. ”

Earth?

Ian thought of something.
