Chapter Twenty-Three: The Legend of the Vicious Dog at Avok Manor
As Searle had mentioned before, there were no servants on their estate......
However, the man on the hill was by no means Thor, and judging by his body, he was not Thor's father.
That is, in the manor, other people came in......
Lian was completely blindsided, because he didn't even know what was going on at all, but something must have happened to this manor.
The green onion duck gradually calmed down, it was a little surprised, just now it clearly felt a chill...... It was very certain that it was the man on the hill who sent it.
The man just stood on the hill, looking at the moon in the sky, and then at the forest of the manor.
Lian couldn't see the man's appearance clearly, but he subconsciously felt that this man was very dangerous, very dangerous.
The man stared into the forest, and then, as if he had discovered something, turned and ran down the hill......
Before Lian could figure out what was going on, another loud howl reached Lian's ears...... This time he heard a little more clearly...... It seems to be ...... Wolf howl?
That's right, it was indeed a loud wolf howl, which clearly came into the ears of lotus and green onion duck, and there are wolf Pokémon in this manor?
Moreover, this wolf howl seemed to be unusually ferocious, almost a roaring roar.
At this moment, the building below the castle rang out, and Thor's faint voice came from downstairs, "Eh, who closed the door, I didn't bring the key to deliberately not close the door!" ”
Ah......h
Lotus Gray immediately ran back to the first floor with the plate and the green onion duck, and opened the door of the castle.
I saw Thor panting outside the door, holding an old man in his arms.
It can be seen with the naked eye that this should be his father.
So he went out to find his father......
……
In the room on the first floor of the castle, Searle's father lay unconscious on an unpretentious bed with gold and diamonds.
Lian could see that he was afraid that the dessert would not be edible, so he put the dessert in the refrigerator in the kitchen and looked at Thor's old father who was unconscious in bed with Thor.
"Uh, what's going on......"
Lian was a little surprised, how could such a thing suddenly happen when he was busy in the kitchen.
"I don't know ...... either," Thor clasped his hands to his chest and looked at his father with a worried expression.
"He seemed to think you were doing it too slowly, so he went for a walk around the manor by himself...... However, by the time I found him, he was already unconscious in the forest of the manor......" Thorle explained, though Lian apparently didn't fully believe him.
"You ran out in a hurry...... "Lian questioned herself, and Thor ran out in such a panic...... It always made people feel as if he knew that his father was fainting outside.
"Ah, this ......" Thor looked a little embarrassed, as if he wanted to say something, but for some reason he didn't dare to say it.
This made Lian even more suspicious, this guy Sayll, there must be some secrets.
Thor looked still struggling, not knowing what to say.
"With all due respect, the rest of Alola's people seem to have some opinions about your manor......" Lian decided to change the subject first, and solved the first question in her heart first. After a roundabout, the atmosphere will not be so awkward.
"I'm ......" Sail looked even more hesitant, making Lian feel annoyed when she looked at it, how can mother-in-law and mother-in-law have something to say.
"Please tell me, Mr. Searle, and maybe, I can help."
Lian offered to help, but the main thing was to satisfy her curiosity.
Thor sighed, looking as if he had made up his mind.
"Well, it's no secret in Alola...... Actually......"
……
Afok Manor, located in the middle of Alola, was founded by Jon Avoic, one of the largest families of its time.
However, Jon Averk has wealth, force, but no morality to match.
In the eyes of everyone at the time, he was simply a scoundrel who did all kinds of evil.
One day, he kidnapped the daughter of a commoner and imprisoned her on his estate.
At night, the girl quietly escaped from the castle of Avok, but was accidentally discovered by the suspicious Avok......
Afok immediately mounted the flaming horses of the manor, released the domestic rock dogs, and chased after the girl in a frenzy......
Later, according to the people of the time, Afok was not followed by a rock dog at all, but a giant scarlet dog like a monster, leading a group of vicious little Lada, roaring madly behind the flaming horses, and finally biting Jon Afok to death in the manor.
In the end, this became a curse spread by the Afok family, as long as the people of the Afok family did something harmful and immoral, the huge vicious dog would reappear and correct the wicked people of the Afok family in the manor......
"So, the reason why you are in a hurry to get out is because ......" Lian seemed to understand why the guys on the boat would say such things.
That's how the stench came about, Jon Averk's misdeeds, so that as a descendant, they are also talked about.
And Thor hurried out, probably because of the wolf howl......
"To be honest, we have always had a tradition of using rock dogs to guard the manor in our manor, but after I was away from home for a while, the rock dogs have disappeared one after another......"
"And our manor, because it has always been guarded by rock dogs, there are no other Pokémon, but recently because of the disappearance of rock dogs, little Lada has begun to appear in the manor......"
Lian then understood why Thor was in such a hurry, the appearance of the little Rada and the mysterious disappearance of the rock dogs had something to do with the legend of the Avok Manor.
So, Thor must have heard the howl at the same time as him at that time.
The sensitive Thor immediately thought of the legend of Avok's vicious dog, and feared for his father's safety, so he hurried out to find his father.
"Finally, you found your unconscious father in the forest, right?"
Lotus added to Thr, who nodded.
That's weird, even if the legend is true, it should have been bitten to death...... But now it seems that his father has no injuries on his body at all.
If you were really attacked by the legendary vicious dog, why would you have to get hurt and splash some blood, right?
At this time, Lian suddenly remembered the suspicious man on the hill......
What does that guy have to do with this whole thing......
The green onion duck shrugged, it didn't understand what was going on, why was it so ugly.
