Chapter 49: The Fiancé
readx;? Not only did Arcanis not give a ritual, but he also did not observe it. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Among the decent people of the Ruofia Empire, self-introduction is a very embarrassing act, and only the lower class who do not have an introducer will pronounce their name. However, Arcanis, who had been a nobleman of Jofia, did not feel any embarrassment, and she stood at her desk, with the cat resting her head on her shoulder, and her two pairs of blue eyes looking at the frail count behind the desk.
"He is the eldest son of the Kofir family in Camor City, His Excellency the Earl of Radovide. Lorna said, standing between the two, staring warily at Arcanis.
"I'm so lucky to meet you. ”
Arcanis said sincerely, and according to the information Karina had given her, she knew that Radovid was the head of the Council of Twelve. Her left arm was trembling slightly, as she suddenly remembered how the Ramon father and son had walked to the slaughterhouse, and it was ridiculous that Ladovid's damn magic instruments had detected that they had eaten human flesh!
"Good night, Miss Aliana. He said, bowing his head and bowing, "Please forgive me for not being able to stand up." Inviting you in the middle of the night is too offensive. Forgive the poor man who was captivated by your charms, I could not continue to languish in unrequited love a little longer. ”
"Have we met?"
"I have a penchant for walking in the forest at night. ”
The only smile on the white-haired girl's face vanished. She took a step back, subconsciously touching her wrist, but it was empty. The bracelet containing the scimitar had long since been taken away by Lorna.
"Please forgive me, but it was so beautiful that I couldn't help it, and I secretly admired it there. ”
"It's voyeurism. Arcanis reminded.
"Your trespassing into the forest was meant to be a thief's despicable act. Lorna's tone was cold, "My master's failure to order me to arrest you is in itself a great mercy. ”
"Don't slander Miss Alina, the forest deserves Alina. "It was my fault that I thought the forest was mine, and built a high wall, but you and your cat did not want to visit this beautiful forest a second time." This forest is yours. ”
Arcarnes was covered in goosebumps. For the first time in her short life, she met suitors. Although Radovid has a noble status, he is also handsome and very polite. But the white-haired girl not only has no pride in her charm at all, but also feels very disgusting.
"What do you want?"
"I beg you to be with me with this forest. "You must have been framed by a madman." If you agree to my plea, I promise to get you out of a wanted life, I promise that I will do everything in my power to clear your name, and I promise that I will repay your company with all my best. ”
"I don't want to be around a clever murderer. Arcanis said, looking at the cat's head on his shoulder, "Melly, do you want to?"
The mutt shook his head.
Ladovid sighed as he looked at the various papers spread out on his desk.
"I am very saddened by your misunderstanding. ”
"I do misunderstand that the name Murderer no longer describes you. She said, "I'm tired from the journey, Lord Earl, can I go back and get a good night's sleep?"
"Thou shameless woman, thou hast insulted the honor of thy master by virtue of his kindness. Lorna put her hand on the hilt of her sword and walked between the two, "I will duel you without the help of the Empire's enforcers, and use your blood to restore the glory of my master." ”
Lorna is aggressive. Arcanis felt a coercion, as if an unseen hand was holding her, something she had never felt before, and her heart was beating with fear.
"Pick a nice last word. She said, avoiding Lorna's gaze.
Radovid didn't speak, just tugged at the corner of Lalona's skirt.
Lorna lowered her head and retreated to her original position. The suffocating coercion was gone, and Arcanis couldn't help but take a big breath.
"This ring belongs to my future wife. He motioned for Lorna to take out the ring box with the delicate relief, "You must take it." ”
Lorna held the open ring box in one hand. A ring set with brilliant diamonds, reflecting the bright moonlight, fascinated Arcanis's blue eyes for a second.
"So, I'm going to marry you, am I going to call you my fiancé now. Arcanis took a step back, like a wild cat being cornered.
"Of course not. "It's up to you to wear it or not, and if you wear it, you're my fiancée, and I respect your wishes." ”
He looked very confident. Especially when Arcanis took the ring box, he smiled with satisfaction, as if he had a wedding planned in his heart.
Arcanis felt very bad. She felt that she was almost forced by Lorna to take over a pair of shackles. Lorna walked up to her, and she couldn't help but feel a pang of intimidation.
"You have dragon blood in you. Arcanis stared at Lorna, who turned around and walked back to her place, and suddenly said, "A little scale, a faint golden eye." ”
Lorna was a little surprised. There was indeed some dragon blood in her veins, and few dared to look her eyes, and almost no one could spot the pale golden one. And the only one who could see that she had dragon blood was Radovid.
"That's right, thief. "But don't expect me to respect you a little, I respect only my master among the intelligent creatures of human nature." ”
"It's like I'm going to marry Radovid. ”
"Yes, my master's wisdom is unimaginable. ”
"Your Excellency, Lord Radovid, is a good name, and your parents must have been loyal readers of Sabias's Machei. "Arcanes is very disgusted with self-righteous people," said Ladovid, the stage in a distressing story. ”
"Macblack" is one of the four great tragedies of Sabias. In the book, the witch prophesied: Machei, who usurped the throne, will have his throne forever, unless the tree blooms with huge flowers. As a result, in a place called Ladovid, Mackhee's enemies hid in a large tree and blew up Machei with an "explosive flower". In fact, Arcanis laughed out loud when he read the end.
"Explosive flowers have been extinct for 5,000 years. ”
"This beautiful giant tree may one day bloom with the flower of death. ”
"Would you like to sit a little longer? I hope you can try the black tea I brewed myself. ”
"No need. Oh, I just remembered that there was still soup boiling at home when I went out, and I had to go back quickly. ”
"Goodbye. ”
Lorna walked out of the room with Arcanis. As soon as the door closed, Lorna grabbed Arcanis by the shoulders and whispered in her ear, "Be careful, Wanted." Do you think you're in luck? Don't think I don't know you're connected to the Scroll Society. I remind you, despicable fugitive, if I find out that you have something to do with the recent catastrophe. The Earl will see you for what you really are. Hide it well, and once your filthy and despicable black heart is exposed, all that will be left for you is death. ”
"You have to be careful, too. The blue wolf said, "Watch your back." I tell you, I am a legendary assassin who can cut off your head from behind with my bare hands. ”
Lorna let go of her hand.
"Try not to tremble in front of me. ”
Arcanis clenched his fists and turned to walk. This is the most infuriating because Lorna is telling the truth.
Half an hour later.
Lorna returned to her study, her nails stained with blood.
"Have you been caught by your friends in the Book Society?"
"He committed suicide. Lorna said, "You were right, and sure enough, a member of the Book Society was following Alina. ”
"I hope my fiancée can make a clear break with the book as soon as possible. Radovid smiled and continued to review the papers.
At the same time, the gentleman of the Scroll Society, the president of the Scroll Society branch in Camor City, looked at the information sent back by the liaison before he died, with a look of disbelief.
"Alina betrayed us?!" he clenched his knife and slammed it at the target, "She tricked us! No wonder she demanded the name of the leader of the Council of the Twelve!"
