Chapter 55: The darkness that the sun can't dispel
It's dawn.
The Grand Duke of Troxie in the main hall woke up faintly.
As soon as I looked down, I found the wool wool in my hand, frowned slightly, and only soothed my brows when I saw the parchment with my name written on it.
"Let the knights come over."
Soon after.
5 knights came.
It was only during this conversation that Grand Duke Trixy was clearly aware that their words were a little different from yesterday.
"Go back."
The 5 knights left like this, and in the shadows Grand Duke Trixy had a blue face, last night, someone must have seen the parchment.
A feeling of being teased welled up in his heart, and the Grand Duke angrily went to the living quarters to ask everyone who had been there last night.
The other side.
After dawn, Kevin went out.
Walking around the butler's quarters is like looking for something.
The knights I met on the road stopped asking questions when I saw the old butler.
"Kevin, butler, are you looking for something?"
"Knight, I'm looking for someone."
"Find someone, maybe I can help."
"Unfortunately, I don't know who it is."
The two passed by, and Kevin continued aimlessly, making a circle to Dougoff's residence.
"Doggoff, Dougoff."
Quietly, without the slightest response, Kevin left.
Inside, Dogoff looked at the closed door, as if he could see Kevin through the door, and gritted his teeth and whispered:
"Old thing!"
The sleepy bugs of the front door guard knights were all scared away by Kevin's voice.
The knights wiped the saliva from their mouths in a panic, and looked at Dougoff's residence, but no one saw it, only Kevin, who was leaving.
"Isn't this the old housekeeper, I came yesterday, why did I come again today."
He didn't understand, but he always felt something strange, caught his attention, and when he woke up his companion, he quietly followed Kevin alone.
A smile tugged at the corners of Kevin's mouth, who was walking ahead.
Finally here, a knight who can reach the ears of the Grand Duke.
All Kevin had to do now was create an image of someone looking for him, and then, naturally, let the Grand Duke know what he was doing.
This kind of thing cannot be rushed, and it cannot be said by himself, but by himself to see, hear, and think.
In this way, he will believe in his heart that this is the "truest" answer.
The knight behind him followed Kevin for a day.
On this day, Kevin traveled all over the housekeeper's residence, quietly observing something outside the residence, and that look always carried some hatred in his eyes.
Night.
The Grand Duke received a report from the knight.
"Lord Grand Duke, Knight Dough didn't move, but Kevin has been walking near the butler's quarters, as if looking for something."
"Well, you keep spying on them."
After letting the knight leave, Grand Duke Trixy tapped his fingers rhythmically on the noble chair, which he had investigated today.
It was his little lady who came to add clothes to him, and admitted to seeing the parchment, but did not know what was written in it.
But there were others who saw it.
That's it.
Grand Duke Troxie felt that his wife did not dare to deceive herself, this is the confidence of being a man, like this:
"Is that the knights?"
So tonight, Grand Duke Trixy decided to do it again, writing a blank parchment book waiting for someone to peek at.
Night, quietly.
The cold wind howled outside, and the dark woods seemed to have evil spirits in them, devouring people.
A silver glow appeared.
This man was one of the five knights.
[Madame said that Grand Duke Trixy was already suspicious of her, and that I had to dispel her suspicions for the sake of the child.] 】
Thinking of the time he spent with his wife, his face was full of smiles, if it wasn't for Grand Duke Trixy snatching her, they should be a beautiful existence.
Stomp –
The moonlight shone in the main hall, and a knight stood in front of the Grand Duke.
Slowly pulled out the silver sword in his hand, at this time, Grand Duke Troxie opened his eyes slightly, and was startled by this cold light, and turned over and fell.
"Oz Knight, what are you doing!"
"Your Excellency? Isn't it obvious, I want to ask you to die, yesterday your little lady ruined my good deeds, but now, there is no one to save you,
I didn't expect me to hide so deeply, you still suspect me, then I have to do it first, don't worry, my sword is fast! ”
"Help me."
The Grand Duke hurriedly dodged the sword, but the red hat was knocked off.
With a chill on his head, the Grand Duke ran out in a panic.
He just wanted to be tempted, not to find death, but now this madman actually assassinated him in the Grand Duke's castle!
The silence of the night was broken by the Grand Duke's cries for help, and footsteps rushed to the streets.
Listening to the footsteps, the ounce in the hall was inexplicable, and directly rushed up and stabbed the Grand Duke in the lower right abdomen.
He calculated that with this sword, the Grand Duke would not die, but would only lose blood.
The Grand Duke, who was stabbed by this sword, had a rush of adrenaline, pushed away the ounce, and ran away with his abdomen covered.
The knights also happened to arrive, protected the Grand Duke behind them, and then pointed their swords at the Ounce.
Behind him, the Grand Duke looked at the scarlet in front of him with the help of the moonlight, panicked, and shouted incoherently:
"Doctor, doctor, come and save me."
Soon after.
The physician arrived and carried the Grand Duke away.
The rest of the knights looked at the ounce and asked puzzledly:
"Why, Oz, I know you're not that kind of person!"
"No, I am, you know what it feels like to have your loved one taken away from me, I'm going through it every day, forget it, you don't understand it either, do it."
Facing his former friend, Atone's face was painful and he hesitated in his heart, but he still chose to finish him with his own hands.
"I'll kill you without any pain."
"Come on, then."
One with bare hands, the other with a silver sword.
The two of them just looked at each other, and Atonne's sword stabbed into Oz's abdomen, and at this time, the blood in Oz's mouth kept flowing, and he said in a weak tone:
"Artonne, do you have someone you love?"
This sentence reminded Artonne of the little lady in the aristocratic living quarters.
She struggled inwardly, but when she saw that her friend was dying, she chose to whisper the biggest secret in her heart.
"Oz, Grand Duke's little lady Sicona, she's my lady, and we have children."
As soon as these words came out, his pupils widened, and he seemed to understand something in an instant, and his heart suddenly became like ashes, and the blood in his mouth kept flowing.
I wanted to speak, but my mouth was full of blood, and I had no choice but to smile, but this smile was all bitter.
Looking at Attona in front of him, there was pity in his eyes, he knew why Athona was here so quickly.
We have all been deceived, and there is no sincerity at all in this Grand Duke's castle.
Under the despair in my heart, I was also angry.
Oz's hand could no longer lift it.
