"This is an important secret for me to tell you, and you must make an oath that I will not pass it on to anyone, and that you must obey my arrangements to help me investigate Lester."

Rose's face suddenly turned serious.

"Can you swear? From today onwards, be my eyes beside Lester. ”

Her heart began to pound, and Meredith certainly knew what that meant.

Any true henchman chosen by Ms. Rose will make a cruel vow,

Being regarded as a confidant by Ms. Rose is not only a tool person who can take advantage of it, but also gets the most perfect maintenance and protection, and obtains a superior status in the Black Rose Academy.

Compared with other heavy vows that spend a lifetime of allegiance to a lady, the oath of being a spy is like a leaf blocking in front of your eyes, and it is as light as a feather that cannot be used to describe Lady Rose's preferential treatment of herself, but......

She really liked to stay by Leicester's side and did not want to deceive that man with other thoughts and psychological burdens.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Rose, I'm afraid I can't do that."

Rose's smile vanished instantly, and the woman became expressionless.

In an instant, evil enveloped the soul, and Meredith saw her end.

It was deep darkness and despair.

"Very few people would dare to turn down my invitation to their faces, and this kind of preferential treatment is even more rare, Meredith, you should know what that means."

That means I chose Leicester, not you. ’

Meredith, in fear, said this in her heart, but her mouth could not make any sound.

I don't know when, a pitch-black magic chain has wrapped around the female mage's neck, tightening it tighter and tighter, and other parts of the body are also tightly entangled.

The female mage's breathing became weaker and weaker, and her cheeks began to turn purple.

"You chose Leicester, which means infidelity and betrayal, in Black Rose, what the price of a traitor will be, you know better than anyone else, even so, you have to go down this dead end."

Rose stared indifferently at the female mage in front of her, with no trace of pity in her eyes.

At the moment when the female mage was about to completely lose consciousness, the black magic chain dissipated out of thin air, and the female mage fell to her knees, clutching her purple-blue neck and panting.

I don't know how long it took, Meredith fell to one knee with a hoarse voice.

"Ms. Xie's grace not to kill."

Rose sat down in her chair again, squinting and her legs cocked.

"I won't kill you because you're still useful to Leicester now, you don't need to thank me, you should thank the man you like."

Raising her head, Meredith shook her head.

"It was I who betrayed Black Rose first, betrayed Ms. Rose, Ms. Rose, you left me a way to live, and I will not be grateful."

staring blankly at the female mage kneeling on the ground, after a long time, the haze dissipated, and the corners of Rose's mouth hooked up a satisfied smile.

The breathtaking killing machine is completely gone.

And the deadly black magic that disappeared without a trace.

"Get up."

"Yes."

Meredith then stood up.

Rose smiled, stood up, and pulled Meredith to the edge of the bed, sitting side by side.

"Since you don't want to be my eyes, then I have to communicate with you about Leicester as an equal, and if you really want Leicester to do good, trust me, it will be very important to investigate something."

"Ms. Rose, please speak."

"I suppose you know about the Origin Rune, right?"

Remembering a few books she had read in the library of the Black Rose Academy, Meredith nodded.

"It seems to be mentioned in the book that those runes are the foundation of the magical power of this world, and each rune has a powerful power beyond the imagination of mortals, no matter who it is, after obtaining the runes, they can become strong beyond mortals,

It happened a few decades ago, the news of the world's runes surfacing from Fuguang Island spread, and there was a tragic rune war on the continent, the runes were shattered in the power of destruction, and they were scattered, and the population of the Valoran continent was reduced to less than one percent of the original one, and those crystal lives of Shurima fell into a deep sleep in fear. ”

"Looks like you're doing your homework pretty well."

Nodding, Rose said lightly.

"If my judgment is correct, Lester's body is fused with a complete world rune, not a fragment."

"What !??"

"What I want you to do is to investigate this world rune, what specific effect does it have other than making a woman like him."

……

In the northern part of the Freljord Icefield, in this barren land, a lonely traveler is in the wind and snow, measuring every inch of land under his feet with his feet, looking for an endless lonely end.

The traveler was covered in a gray fur cloak and carried a long leather pouch made of the leather of a bipedal wyvern, and the only thing the icefield beasts could see along the way were the resolute pale blue eyes hidden under the cap.

"Woo woo woo woo ~ ~~"

A hungry little snowwolf was far behind the traveler, as if it wanted to attack, but it was afraid of the power that made it uneasy, and hesitated, but instead it consumed what little physical energy it had.

"Little one, if you don't learn to restrain your desires, you will die in this weeping land sooner or later, because you have no idea what kind of cruel hunter you meet your prey, a cold-blooded person who will not let go even your loved ones."

The traveler stopped suddenly, pulled his blue-purple arm out of his cloak, touched the large cloth bag around his waist, and took out a piece of pickled jerky.

Turning around, the traveler threw the jerky behind him.

After hesitating for a moment, following the scent of jerky, the snowwolf clamped his tail and approached the jerky vigilantly, and after realizing that the traveler was just looking at him, without any extra movements, he quickly picked up the jerky and fled backwards without hesitation.

With access to food, the Snowwolf chooses to stay away from the unknown prey that terrifies him from the bottom of his heart.

"Have a nice day, smart little one."

Sighing and patting his empty big cloth bag, the lonely traveler carried his leather bag and walked towards the north again.

"Does it seem like there's a village up ahead?"

The traveler's back soon disappeared into the snow and ice.

The position of [Nairzayag] is very awkward.

Originating further north, the [Hanluo Waterfall] flows down the river, and the few fish and shrimp in the cold stream have long been swept away by the upstream and midstream gathering places, and by the time the cold stream flows through Nairzayag, only the crystal clear ice water remains, purer than the most perfect Zhenbing and the newborn little girl Freljord.

In desperation, because there were a few plots of land to the south of the village suitable for wheat fields, the northerners living in Nairzayag had to follow the example of the southerners to build a simple mill that could grind grain into grain, trying to become a village that could produce bread steadily in exchange for other goods.

Unfortunately, the mill was there, but after the mill was built, the villagers found that there was not so much grain for the village to produce bread, and a group of trolls happened to appear near the farmland near the Tiesha Mountains in the south, roaming around all day waving wooden sticks, attacking the villagers and trampling on the farmland, and there was no way to make the villagers farm with peace of mind.

Life is getting harder and harder.
