Chapter 33: Assassination and Shame
I was going to spend the night reading books in the library, but I was injured and had to give up.
Baroque followed Celine back to the small building, and Lark walked out with a bulging belly, and Baroque hardly dared to think about the scene in the kitchen. He knew very well that Lark had a big belly like a black hole, and he was afraid that there wouldn't be any food left in the kitchen except vegetables, right?
"Woo", Rak suddenly opened his mouth and let out a cry, it had already found that Baroque was injured! His brain was suddenly filled with anger, the thought of the frost wolf was very simple, Baroque was his brother, if anyone dared to hurt him, he would be punished, and it was better to be swallowed by Lord Lac.
Taking advantage of Celine's temporary departure, Baroque hurriedly calmed the back-backed beast's fur, and was about to bite his tongue to reveal the original form of the frost wolf: "Hey, don't worry, brother. I'm fine, didn't we say okay, don't expose it easily. There are so many delicious foods here, don't you want to enjoy them for a while?"
The innocent Lack tilted his head and thought about it, immediately expressed his acceptance, stared at Baroque, and made sure that the good brother was really okay, and then staggered to a soft seat in the living room, closed his eyes comfortably, and prepared to use sleep to digest the food in his stomach.
"I don't have a man's clothes, let's change into a magic robe for the time being, and I'll borrow another set for you tomorrow." Celine walked out, holding a black magic robe in her hand. Although it is a women's style, but fortunately, the style of the magic robe, both men and women are similar, as long as they don't walk out of the small building, no one will see it.
Baroque shook his head again and again, jokingly, and asked him to wear women's clothes...... It's better to let him continue to spit out a few mouthfuls of blood. "Forget it, wash the blood stains on my clothes, and they will dry quickly. Hide in your room for the night and you should be fine. ”
Celine pouted, since Baroque didn't want magic robes, then forget it. Pointing to a room, he said, "There's a bathroom, go wash yourself." I'm going back to rest, don't forget to go to the palace with me tomorrow, rest early!" To Baroque's annoyance, Celine unleashed a warning spell at the staircase leading upstairs. ...... As if I was afraid that the Baroque would sneak up at night!
Walk into the bathroom and take off your leather armor, the blood stains on it are easy to clean, just brush it. The linen ** inside couldn't dry for a while, so after washing, I took it out and put it next to the fireplace in the living room, and it was almost dry overnight.
I also went in and took a good shower, so naked and muscular body, wearing only a pair of animal skin shorts, casually threw the tomahawk out the door, and returned to the room. From the day the tribe was destroyed, the Baroque never stopped practicing shamanism. Sitting cross-legged on the bed, whispering a barely audible shamanic incantation, he slowly closed his eyes.
A soft power emanated from his body, and through the moon outside the window, it seemed that the soft silver beast hair on his body was glowing, and the whole person was shrouded in a halo.
He had read a lot of scrolls today and cleared up a lot of his previous doubts. The power of the shaman is not just about communicating with magical beasts and gaining battle magic. They actually have the same cultivation process as a mage or a Douqi warrior. Douqi warriors need to condense Douqi groups, mages meditate on spiritual power, and shamans communicate the power of natural elements to improve their soul power. The light cluster in Baroque's mind is the [Spirit Sea]-like existence equivalent to a magician and representing the strength of the body, which the orcs call the [Soul Sea]. The larger and more condensed the light cluster, the stronger his shamanic power became.
There was no ice ring outside the baroque this time, and there was no possibility that Lark in the living room would be alarmed, but the earth dog still moved his ears, raised his head hoofly, and stared out the window with a faint gaze...... The beast's instincts make it feel dangerously close!
There is a kind of thing in the world that is extremely sad, and that is when you think you can master a situation and thus be confident. Suddenly, it was disturbed by a very small accident, and then it was out of control, and finally completely collapsed.
Outside the door, the two magicians received instructions from Rumi, the Marquis of Delta's henchman, and in their opinion, killing a small orc was a matter of effort. Even having two noble magicians work together made them feel belittled. However, this orc is a plaything raised by Lady Celine after all, even if it is to provoke Lady Celine in order not to reveal his identity and provoke Lady Celine's anger, the two magicians also need to be careful and properly done, so in the end they chose to come together.
Madame Celine was only an intermediate magician, and the vigilant magic she unleashed was insignificant in the eyes of the two high-level magicians, and she cracked it lightly, pushed open the door and entered the living room, and was somewhat stunned to find that an ugly earth dog was lying on a chaise longue by the fireplace, staring at them blankly.
One of the magicians quickly threw out a ball of water, wrapped the dog's head in the water ball, and hung it in the air, only to see the dog roll his eyes and stick out his tongue, and then disperse the water ball. The poor earth dog lay on the ground with his tongue out, motionless and dead!
"Where would that orc be? probably sleeping in Madame Celine's room, it would be a little difficult for us to kill him. One of them whispered, with a kind of ** smile.
The other pointed to the battle axe outside the door of the baroque room: "Orc weapons, that kid is in this room, let's finish quickly, I still have a magic experiment to do." If it weren't for the fact that he owed the Marquis de Delta, the ghost would have come to do such a thing. ”
"Hey, man, don't be so upset. Think about the reward that the Marquis of Delta will give for completing this, at least there will be nearly a hundred gold coins, enough for us to do a few magic experiments. ”
The other magician remained silent and quietly approached the Baroque door. The magic array in his hand lit up with a faint light, which was a sign that magic was brewing!
There is an old proverb among the orcs that "a sneak attack in front of a shaman is a joke". If the mages knew that Baroque was an orc sacrifice, they would have thought about whether their actions were worth it. After all, although mages are powerful, they have a fatal weakness, that is, they are very weak. Once the enemy gets closer, even the most ordinary warrior can take out a Magister.
When Baroque was cultivating and communicating with the power of the natural elements, it was also the time when his soul touch was at its sharpest. His soul seemed to float around the air, in contact with the elements that jumped out of the air, and communicated. This realm was his first encounter, and it was full of novelty and interest. When the two magicians used their magic to open the door to the living room, the fluctuations had already alarmed him. Even the hateful Rak pretending to be dead was the result of his secret instructions, and he was ready to catch a live one to see who was going to kill him............ As a powerful sixth-level ice beast, the Frost Giant Wolf will be drowned by a water ball, which is a big joke. Even if you don't care about its magic, just the strength of the giant wolf can easily bite the throat of a magician.
The two magicians were ready to do their magic, and the one in front gently pushed open the door and looked at the bed, stunned to find that an orc boy on the bed under the moonlight was looking at him with a smile. Shocked, the magic on the staff in his hand dissipated carelessly.
Not good, almost subconsciously, the more stable magician in front of him realized the bad regression, but he tripped over his companion's body and fell to the ground, and then the ghostly orc appeared in front of him, and his big hand struck him on the head, and then he didn't know anything, and before he fell unconscious, he seemed to see the face of his companion with a frightened dead man...... He's really dead, and the dirt dog that should be dead bites off his neck ............!
............ Dividing line ............
When he woke up again, Turki was already tied to a chair. In front of him sat a shirtless, sturdy orc boy, with Lady Celine and Sierra standing nearby. The little girl slept in a daze, not yet awake, and did not even know what was happening.
"Sela, go back to sleep, there's nothing for you here, don't worry. Envious of the little girl's innocence, Celine sent Saila back to sleep, and then returned to the living room. Seeing Baroque bare with a big grin, he couldn't help frowning...... Though...... Although this kid's body is indeed strong and perfect, it still makes her uncomfortable to ignore her own existence.
"Turki, what are you doing when you enter my residence late at night? This is not the behavior of a noble magician, aren't you afraid of the punishment of the academy council?" Madame Celine was actually a little confused, if it wasn't for Baroque knocking on her door, she wouldn't even know that her vigilance magic was easily broken. When he saw that it was a magician he knew who had sneaked in, he couldn't help but scold him angrily.
"I'm sorry, Lady Celine. This matter is your family matter, and I think you probably don't want to make a big deal out of him, so we don't need to alarm the dean and talk about it privately. The magician named Turki didn't seem worried, he knew too much about the filthy affairs of these nobles, and even though his reputation was already discredited, he still wanted to maintain a hypocritical reserve of purity. In his opinion, Madame Celine did not want the matter of raising an orc male pet to be exposed, and this gave him the confidence to bargain.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Lady Celine frowned, and she suddenly had a very bad premonition. Really......
"It was your husband, the Marquis of Delta, who asked me to come and kill someone...... Surely you know for what purpose. If I didn't owe him a great favor, do you think I, as a magician, would have fallen into the trap of assassinating a noble lady's male pet orc?"
"Shut up!" Mrs. Celine's pretty face turned red instantly, almost mad with anger, she knew that Bulman would go back to slander Delta, but she didn't care, but she never thought that that man would let someone kill Baroque that night, who did he think of me?
Baroque had a strange expression and couldn't help but whistle in surprise. The Marquis of Delta is really a superb nobleman! he lives a prodigal life without shame. Just knowing that there was an orc who was suspected of being a male pet next to his wife, he immediately sent someone to assassinate him, and it seems that his extreme selfishness and possessiveness have reached the level of **.
"Baroque shut your mouth. The crazy woman was unreasonable, and the baroque who whistled was also affected, and was severely reprimanded and obediently shut up.
