Chapter 161: The Past
"Did you ask the old lady, let me think about it......" Shawn and Igonia were there in front of Kalibo.
The two of them took the portrait to the old butler and asked, if there was anyone in this family who knew the affairs of the previous generation best, it was only this old butler, who had been a servant of the Wigel family since his grandfather's generation.
Watch as Kalibo trembles and picks up the painting in Igonia's hand......
I have always heard from my family that the previous generation of Baron Vigel liked oil paintings, and even once asked the state subsidy and the Earl of Hamil to bring some paintings over, and of course they would also paint for their families.
"This is the portrait......" The calloused hand gently stroked the surroundings, and there seemed to be tears in the corners of his eyes.
"I now understand why the old man liked oil painting at that time, and sure enough. After all these years, it will still look reminiscent of the scene back then...... It's been a long time......"
,“...... At that time, a traveler came, and I heard that he was very talented in painting...... At that time, the adults were not yet born! It was during the period when the old man had just met the old lady that he asked people to paint this picture...... Hahaha......"
There are some vicissitudes of laughter.
Kalibo was very old and the oldest in the family.
Sometimes he is confused when he talks and acts, and Sean rarely asks him to do things, but he is always stubborn to do it himself.
I can't help it, it's better to think about moving in the winter......
However, the other party's body is very tough, and he is still very stable when he walks at a young age.
"When the old lady left, she was still young, maybe three or four years old, and probably didn't remember her. He looked at Sean and said.
In fact, Sean has a vague impression of being a teenager at all, after all, having memories of two worlds sometimes feels confusing...... For example, a little boy watching the sunrise from the mage's tower in the snow one day, or dreaming of a certain witch from a tall building.
But after thinking about where the mage tower came from in the previous life, and where did this Telemian come from, what kind of mage tower did it come from, as for the high-rise buildings, it is even more nonsense.
So Sean felt that the memories of the two worlds were messed up when they were mixed...... In my dreams, I will see some scenes that I feel I remember, but I have never seen when I think about it, and I remember that I had seen similar reports in my previous life.
Probably because the 'self' of the two worlds has a similar situation, so once it is fused, there will be this kind of offside space-time scene.
"Then why did she leave?" asked Sean.
From the time Igonia found this portrait, Sean had a very special feeling.
It stands to reason that the parents here can also be called 'parents', but they have always used the name of the Vigel family.
What is the so-called inheritance......
Bloodline, names, or fragments that remain in other people's mouths and memories......
In short, I want to know, as if I can find a sense of belonging.
"I remember when I asked my lord, he said that he wanted to go back to her mother's house, but she never came back...... At that time, you were crying all the time, although the master has been comforting you, but I know that he will cry at night, so we don't dare to mention it, and even don't mention it in the future. ”
It's no wonder that Sean feels that since he came into this world, he has only heard what the previous Baron Wigel was, or the previous generation like. Since she has worn so many generations, the woman should have some stories, but she has hardly heard similar stories.
"That'...... Isn't she from the town?" Sean continued.
Kalibo shook his head firmly.
"It's not!"
"Madame had come from outside, and it was raining heavily in the town. I heard that there was a group of mercenaries on the mountain who had not come down, so the master personally led people up to find them...... It was very dark that night, and those who were not familiar with the town did not dare to go up the mountain, so we couldn't light the torches, so we walked slowly with our portable lanterns......"
Kalibo told the story of more than twenty years ago, when Baron Vigel led people up the mountain and finally found the adventurer who was lost at that time, in fact, there was only one person, that is, Sean's mother.
At that time, the old man took that person home to recuperate, and slowly found that the other party was a very beautiful girl. Kalibo laughed as he said this.
During that time, it was almost like the story of a country boy meeting a beautiful girl.
One is a baron, and the other is an unknown but beautiful girl......
"At that time, we could all see that Madame was very special, but we couldn't say what was special. Because we haven't seen a noble lady, but then we think it should be...... But even when Miss Arya Hamil came over, I felt that my temperament was inferior to that of Madame. ”
"Maybe the old man was attracted by such a temperament and has been pursuing each other. As long as he wants to leave, he finally confesses to the other party. ”
Of course, the end result is good.
Otherwise, Sean wouldn't have come into this world......
"In that case, why did you leave later?"
"I don't know the specifics, the master only told us that Madame was going back to her parents' house, and I thought about it...... The two have lived together for a few years, and they haven't gone back for three or four years after the adult was born, so they should go back. ”
"It's just that what makes me wonder is why the old man at that time didn't go back with him, and he didn't chase him out later. Although Kalibo is the housekeeper of the family, the mood of the master is not completely unknown.
The previous Baron Vegal never left the town of Telemien until he died, something Sean had complained about many times before, but now it seems that it is not so simple.
If you are so affectionate, don't you dare to chase it out?
Or is there something else going on...... Thinking back to his mind, the first thing he saw after coming to this world was to see the other party in bed, so that he must continue the Wigel family.
After hearing such a story today, I think that this sentence has another meaning.
"Nia, you come with me. ”
Pulling Igonia to run to the upstairs room again.
Kalibo just stared at the two of them, and Igonia nodded politely to each other......
"What are we looking for?"
After arriving at the room of the previous Baron Vigel, Sean began to rummage through the cabinets and look for it.
"Find out if there are any other clues, anything...... Letters or journals or whatever. ”
The two searched for a long time and did not find anything other than the portrait, no one has come in here since the death of the previous Baron Vigel, many of them have kept their original furnishings, and even the quill on the table has not been put back, it has always been used by the Baron to put it outside.
The nib of the pen had long since dried, and there was not much meaningful text left on the paper on the table.
"Otherwise, we'll go to the mountains and look for it. ”
"Huh?"
"There has always been an ancient tomb in the small town of Telemien, where many wizards explored. ”
