Chapter 34: The Palace
Celine felt that she could no longer stand the unscrupulous man, and even if she had to bear the wrath of the old Duke Jean, she decided that it was time to make a decision.
Involving Jean and Delta, two important families in the kingdom, divorce is not only a private matter between them, but has become a political event that touches the nerves of the kingdom. Although she has made up her mind, before that, the most important thing is Princess Claire's condition, if Baroque can really be cured, then there is no doubt that the king and queen will stand by her side and support her.
"Orc, you just killed a noble magician, do you know what that means?" Turki was completely unconscious, stared at Baroque, and said coldly: "This means that even with the protection of Lady Celine, you will not escape punishment...... Death is punished. ”
"Yes, then can I think so, since I have to die, why not kill a magician and walk into the hall of the dead with me?" Baroque somehow put an extra dagger in his hand, and gently placed it on Turki's neck, circling it, and the sharp blade slashed through his neck, bringing a hint of coolness.
The orc in front of him didn't seem to be joking, and Turki shouted to Lady Celine in horror: "Keep this damned orc away from me, I am a magician, a noble magician......." If you let this orc hurt me, even if you are the queen's sister, you must give an explanation to the academy, and your reputation will be completely ruined, don't you really care?"
"Baroque, let him go!" Celine said to Baroque in a somewhat depressed mood. Baroque put away his dagger and looked at Turki with interest, making the magician feel uncomfortable.
Celine raised her head, but said to Turki: "I will not kill you, but an imperial countess is not to be insulted, I will hand you and the dead guy over to the king, and the king will decide the punishment for you." What I haven't done, I have a clear conscience, let those who have dark hearts say it!"
Baroque knew what to do, and reached out his palm and slashed at Turki's neck, causing the magician to roll his eyes and pass out.
"Take him with you when you go to the palace tomorrow, and you will guard him for the night tonight!, drag the dead man out, don't stain the floor!" Madame Celine said to Baroque as she walked up the stairs without looking back.
It seems that he is still a nominal retinue of Celine, and this kind of thing really needs to be done by himself. Scratching his head, he couldn't help but beat his head angrily when he saw Rak napping on his stomach: "Stinky boy, if you bite these two guys to death, won't there be so much trouble? Now you have to let me stay up all night to guard...... No, this task is up to you, take a good look, brother!"
Baroque dragged a man out of the living room, threw it in the small garden, and then ran Lark out of the room and went back to the room on his own. Leaving a tearful and aggrieved earth dog............ Obviously you want to live!
.................. Dividing line ..................
Early the next morning, the royal palace sent a magnificent royal carriage into the academy, and the king's personal attendant came to pick it up in person. When I saw the scene outside Celine's house, I couldn't help but be in a daze...... Two people were lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead, while an ugly earth dog was standing up, shaking its fur, raising its legs and soaking urine on someone's face, and then there was a scream that frightened countless birds! "Damn bitch, get out of the way, get out of the ......!"
"Luck, can you please calm him down?" Baroque pushed open the door and walked out, sleepy-eyed. It was so long last night, and he didn't sleep well when he went back. ...... The reason why I said "also" is because Mrs. Celine walked down from the stairs, and her eyes were faintly dark.
The two of them walked out of the house almost at the same time, and they both had dark circles under their eyes, and were completely watched by the king's personal attendants...... A flock of crows is stirring in their heads, and their imaginations are flying!
Of course, as the king's confidant, he knew that there were some things that he didn't know even if he saw them. Bowing reservedly, he said to Celine: "Mrs. Celine, the two Majesties are still waiting for you to go to the palace for breakfast together, please come with me, don't let your Majens wait too long." ”
"All right, Mr. Urbin, here we are. Madame Celine hurriedly turned back to her room, her haggard appearance was not fit to see the king and queen. After a quarter of an hour, Celine, who had finally regained her grace and beauty, stepped out and got into the carriage. Baroque did not have this treatment, and if the king really let an orc sit in the royal carriage, then they would lose face and would become the laughing stock of humanity on the entire continent.
Once again, Sierra was left here to look after the family...... With Lack. The carriage was gone, and Baroque followed on a horse, as for the two magicians, one dead and one alive...... , Celine wants to realize her decision, they are the key evidence, so they are also taken to the palace.
The royal palace is actually not far from the academy, and the royal carriage is speeding down, and it will soon arrive. Despite its majestic and magnificence, after seeing the Academy's magical towers, the palace was a little inferior.
Entering the palace castle, the guards naturally did not let the dead and captives enter, temporarily imprisoned Turki and his companions, and the carriage passed directly through the royal garden, and came to a small building like a fairy tale, which was the exclusive world of Princess Claire, built by the king and queen for their beloved daughter.
"Your Majesty and the princess are waiting for you inside, Madame Celine, please come with me. Urbans said, while not forgetting to sternly admonish the Baroque behind him: "Orcs, this is Paddington Palace, pay attention to your words and deeds." ”
Accustomed to human discrimination, Baroque's expression did not fluctuate in the slightest, and he followed Mrs. Celine into the small building. As if nothing unpleasant had happened yesterday, the king accepted Celine's greeting with great majesty, and Baroque merely bowed, making it impossible for him to get humbled on one knee. Uerban was already full of anger, thinking that it was his mistake that made the orcs presumptuous in front of the king, and just about to scold, King Corek waved his hand: "Orcs are vulgar, understandable, Uerban, go down." ”
The personal servant hurriedly bowed down, suddenly remembered something, and whispered a few words in the king's ear. The king immediately frowned and looked at Celine. Celine simply told what happened last night without hiding it at all.
Urban was beside the king, and for a moment he felt a chill emanating from the king, knowing that the king was angry. Of course, he would not have known that the king was not angry at the filthy things of the Marquis de Delta, but was afraid of ...... Fortunately, the orcs are fine, if the sneak attack magician succeeds, won't his daughter's last hope be gone?
"Imprison that magician. The king gave an indifferent order, turned back to Celine and said gently, "I will let some people give you a satisfactory explanation." ”
"I believe you, Your Majesty, for now let's go to Claire, nothing is more important than her business. ”
The king nodded and walked to the back bedroom, where Celine and Baroque followed into the princess's room.
Even though the Green Arrow Squirrel had made Claire feel better, it seemed to be overly excited, and this morning she was in a coma again, and Queen Susan was standing by the bedside, her eyes were red, and she had just cried. Seeing Celine and Baroque coming in, Susan stood up, hugged her sister, and looked at Baroque with a choked voice, revealing a helpless look of expectation: "Baroque...... Shaman, please do your best, I can't live without my treasure...... I'm going to die ...... heartbreak. "Even if the orc in front of her is so young, even immature, the queen has no choice but to pin her only hope on him.
"I will do my best, honorable queen. Not for your position and power, but for the love of a sad mother for her daughter!" Baroque said, walking to the bedside and looking at the pale and bloodless comatose girl.
"Can you go out for a while? I need to be quiet. Baroque didn't look back, just stared at the little princess.
The King and the Baroque had remained cold to each other after yesterday's negotiations, and neither had a good opinion of the other. They had a silent understanding that if the Baroque could save Claire, the king would do everything in his power to save the lives of the Baroques. On the contrary, the Baroque could not save their people, and could only watch them die in the gladiatorial arena. In any case, the Baroque could not have been careless in this matter.
Everyone walked out of the room, Baroque whispered a shamanic incantation, his hand lit up with a faint light, and he gently pressed his finger against the little girl's forehead, slowly closing his eyes.
Since stepping into the temple of shamanic sacrifice, the light of the Baroque brain has stabilized. The light cluster in this feeling is what the orc shaman calls the [Soul Sea], which is similar to the spiritual sea of the magician. But what is full of it is the unique power [soul power] that belongs to the orcs, which is even more mysterious and unpredictable than the spiritual power in the spiritual sea of human magicians. After all, the cultivation of spiritual power by magicians is mainly used to guide the natural elements and cast magic.
Orc shamans have completely different soul powers, they also use soul power to communicate with natural elements, but this is only one aspect, and they are not used to perform magic. The greatest use of soul power is to communicate with all living beings, this process is very mysterious, just like Baroque and Frost Wolf Rak, after communication, Baroque naturally learned the Frost Wolf's magic [Ice Blade], and produced a kind of alien power that is almost telepathic, and now they can almost know each other's thoughts through their eyes, but they don't understand the process at all.
Baroque vaguely felt that this was the key, and even the easy learning of Warcraft magic was just the beginning, and there was an inexplicable premonition that once he cracked this secret, it would bring about earth-shaking changes!
Retracting his thoughts, Baroque's emotions calmed down, and his soul power gently enveloped Claire's head through the touch of his fingers. .................. Under the slow invasion of the light of soul power, the little girl's simple and weak spiritual sea gradually appeared in Baroque's mind.
Human beings have a spiritual sea, but some people can mobilize their spiritual power, like a river, and can practice magic, while some people's spiritual sea is like a pool of stagnant water, unable to touch the existence of the sensory element, just ordinary people. Claire's spiritual sea is very lively, and under the 'gaze' of the baroque, she even found that the spiritual power that is like a small lake is constantly beating, spinning, ......and growing! This is an extremely excellent spiritual sea, and it is a natural magician seed.
Soon, Baroque discovered the fatal flaw, a dim place in the spiritual sea 'lake', like a gap, and the spiritual power kept flowing from there, it turned out that this was the cause!
