When the roar of pain cannot be made, it is as if all the pain has accumulated in the body. Char's whole body was tense, and every muscle in his body was tense!

The pain seemed to penetrate his body and his mind in an instant! He felt as if he were a cricket that he had played with when he was a child, pierced his body with a needle, and nailed it to the table.

The pain was so clear, so clear that Char almost went crazy! But he couldn't get rid of it, couldn't alleviate it, couldn't avoid it!

The painful feeling hit his body wave after wave, and Char's whole body was about to spasm!

At this moment, Merlin's voice sounded like a demon in hell!

"The first Thorn of the Mind is complete, congratulations on completing the first step, and there are still twelve Thorns of the Soul waiting for you to taste" Come on, my little frog. ”

Hearing this voice, Char suddenly had a feeling: At this time, even coma has become a luxury wish!

Just when Char was being "tortured" by Merlin in the woods, next to the broken house, Adeline looked at the woods with some disbelief.

The look in Char's eyes before she left with Merlin just now was too pitiful, which was really unusual.

Although Adeline doesn't think Merlin will hurt Char, "But, uh, that's Merlin!"

"What are you thinking? dear. ”

Aunt Sofia's voice came from behind her.

Adeline immediately turned around and looked at Aunt Sofia with a nervous expression.

The smile on Aunt Sofia's face was still so kind and soft, and even her eyes seemed to have a hint of generosity and warmth. But Adeline suddenly remembered this morning, a little earlier. Aunt Sofia and Merlin had a big fight.

What's more, the content of the conversation between the two of them!

"Why don't you speak? Aunt Sofia looked at Adeline and suddenly frowned: "You seem to be a little afraid of me?"

Adeline hesitated and nodded. Then she looked a little confused: "I'm sorry. Aunt Sofia, those words of your morning "I, I have some doubts"

Aunt Sofia narrowed her eyes and looked at Adeline: "Are you thinking, did I see through your origin a long time ago, so I deliberately took you with me, is there any intention, right?"

Adeline was a little embarrassed to speak. She suddenly felt a little guilty in her heart, after all, this Aunt Sofia had been taking good care of herself since they met. It seems that he shouldn't think of her as bad

Right.

"I do have an intention. Aunt Sofia suddenly threw herself so softly that Adeline was stunned!

"I" know your mother. Aunt Sofia walked over, stretched out her palm and gently stroked Adeline's head, Adeline was already stunned, just looking at Aunt Sofia blankly.

"Well, to be exact, it's not just acquaintance, it's familiarity. Aunt Sofia squinted her eyes and smiled, smiling kindly, but under that kind gaze, there seemed to be something else hidden: "To be more precise, I hated your mother very much. "As for why I hate her, I suppose from my conversation with Merlin in the morning, you, a smart boy, should be able to guess why?"

Adeline shuddered a little and nodded reluctantly.

"Alas, it's all old things. But I hate your mother, but that's true. The reason is simple, I fell in love with that old pervert. But that old pervert didn't love me, and at that time, I could only blame all the sins on your mother's guidance. Hmmm, "that poor woman"

"Look at you, it seems that you are not kept in the dark, hehe, you know your own secrets, and your mother's secrets, don't you?" If you are so afraid of him, then the answer is obvious. Honey "You, you know, right! you know!"

Adeline's body trembled, but she still nodded.

"Poor child, I will not hurt you, from the first time I saw you, until now, I have not thought of hurting you. Aunt Sofia smiled: "Although I almost killed your mother back then. Oh, I should say it's not almost, I really did it, but. I was just stopped by that old pervert. And because of this, I fell out with him completely. I left Odin and went to the Wildfire Plain to live in seclusion to this day. ”

Looking at the trembling Adeline, Aunt Sofia sighed: "A very cheesy and ridiculous tragedy, I fell in love with that old pervert. And that old pervert is in love with another woman, and that woman, unfortunately, is your mother. ”

Adeline was speechless.

"Actually, all along, I was wrong. I thought I was the victim, the most miserable one. Or rather. In this messy old past. Well. I thought I was the most miserable, Merlin thought she was the most miserable, the old pervert thought he was the most miserable" and the old drunkard, who was now lying in the grave, also thought he was the most miserable when he was alive. Actually, after so many years, I thought about it countless times. I finally understood. None of us are the worst, dear. Do you know who is the most miserable?" Adeline shook her head.

"It's your mother. Aunt Sofia sighed again: "Miserable woman, she is really pitiful." ”

The smile of this supreme powerhouse was a little bleak: "She was born noble, and she was loved by the strongest person in the world, as if she should be the happiest woman in the world, but "This is the source of her tragic fate!"

"The most tragic thing about her is that she shouldn't be in love with someone like the old pervert! What's even more tragic is that she shouldn't also fall in love with the old pervert! And what's even more tragic is that the two of them can never really be together! The old pervert has been shining all his life, but only this one thing, the woman he loves deeply, can never stand with him really upright! Because he is the Odin Emperor! As the Odin Emperor, he can't marry one. He can be against the whole world, but not against the blood in his own body! He is a member of the Hannigan family, so he must abide by the Hannigan family traditions and rules, and he cannot marry your mother, and your mother, in love with a man like him, is also a great tragedy. Do you know why?"

Adeline:

"Because, she's not" Our Aunt Sofia's words seemed very strange, and Adeline listened to it with a blank face.

Aunt Sofia looked into Adeline's eyes, "Your mother is beautiful, dear. You have inherited her beauty. But just beauty is not "a very good mother, very good, but she is not us" I know Zhen Gong understands: she is not the same kind of people who stand on our level! Refers to: old perverts. Old drunkard, Merlin, I "And the other guys, do you understand?"

"No, the strong, because my mother, not the strong?" Adeline asked in a trembling voice.

Yes, ridiculous answer, but unquestionable. Aunt Sofia nodded: "Because your mother is not a strong person! So, she is not from our world! So, this is also the source of her tragedy." Maybe you don't understand the reason I'm talking about," and I'll tell you, because your mother wasn't a strong person, she couldn't understand the relationship between us, these people.

Speaking of which, maybe you don't believe it, or maybe it's a little ridiculous" Actually, "we." These people. In this world, there will always be a strong sense of loneliness! When you really stand on a level beyond mortals, you look around you, and only you are alone. What you understand, no one else understands. What you understand, others don't understand. At this time, you will feel lonely.

And this, in the world. "We, there are too few such people, so our relationship has always been complicated" Sometimes we are hostile to each other, some people are friends but even if they are enemies, our relationship has always been very close. Even thirty years ago, there was a big scuffle between us, but what was the result? In the end, there was still no situation in which one was cruel to whom, because everyone knew one truth in their hearts: in this world, our companions, counted and counted, and there were only a few of them, "If you kill one, you will lose one." So, no one wants fewer companions. ”

"Merlin hates me, and I hate her, but my sister won't really kill me, and I won't really want to kill her" because we can't bear to. The other party died. And the same is true of the old perverts. I killed your mother back then. He stopped me and didn't let me get my way. Afterwards, of course, he hated me to death, but "even if it was such a strong hatred, he didn't kill me." Even after that, we maintained that half-friend relationship.

The reason is simple: we are all kind, we are companions, and we know what each other thinks. What we know, others don't understand. But a few of us understand. It's hard for me to articulate this meaning to you...

Your mother doesn't understand that in her "ordinary, woman's eyes, I'm going to kill her, but the old pervert still has a relationship with me, which makes her very sad." ”

Aunt Sofia suddenly stopped talking at this, she looked at Adeline, and sighed, "Okay, I just wanted to tell you, dear, that I didn't want to hurt you, or rather, your mother was the victim. She is an ordinary woman, but she is caught up in the grievances of our group of monsters, and in this circle of grievances in ours, she is the weakest and most unable to protect herself" and the one who is hurt the most.

Alas, "over the years, I have gradually come to understand this truth. So, when I saw you for the first time, I guessed that you were her daughter, and your appearance could not be concealed at all, and your eyebrows and eyes were simply the same as those drawn by hers.

So, I didn't want to hurt you. I just want to take good care of you, protect you, or, from you, alleviate some of my regrets about what happened back then. ”

Adeline's mouth opened wide in surprise.

"Well, don't be so surprised. You don't have to think too much, I'm still the kind aunt. And you, my dear little guest, hehe. ”

Aunt Sofia suddenly hugged Adeline. Then he whispered something in her ear:

"I know you must have had a hard time" because of your blood! Alas, there is one. Father, I'm afraid it will not bring you any blessings, but endless troubles. ”

Adeline's body stiffened!

It's her biggest secret!

Not many people know this secret! In Byzantium, there are only her, and Kantos the Great!!

The royal brother who was kind to him didn't know, and Daphne, who regarded herself as a sister, didn't know. His fiancé Char didn't know,

However, this Aunt Sofia beside her knows!

"Be strong, my child, and don't forget" Your father was the strongest man in the world! You, as his daughter, you have the blood of the Hannigans in your veins, you should have been born different! Well, calm down, don't look weak, oh, look, your husband is here. ”

This last sentence really calmed Adeline, and she couldn't wait to turn her head. I saw Char!

Char was coming out of the woods step by step.

He's alone. Merlin didn't follow him.

When Char walked out, he looked a little strange, his expression seemed to be a little dazed, some confused, some surprised, and some seemed to be, "Worried?!"

He walked slowly, step by step, as if carefully measuring the distance on the ground with his footsteps, and he raised a hand in front of his eyes. Looking at his palm carefully, it seems that there is something strange on his palm, but it is actually empty.

But he just looked at it so carefully, so seriously, "even as if he was trying to study something." Adeline saw the solemn expression on Char's face, and the original shout was held in her throat.

And Char didn't come towards her either.

Char walked directly to Garin step by step!

Garin was still squatting there, carefully observing the firewood that Char had just chopped one by one, and he was completely engrossed.

But when Char came over, Garin immediately noticed it, and he turned around and stood up, staring at Char.

Even though Char walked very slowly and walked lightly, even Garin couldn't feel any fluctuations in Char's strength.

Well, "this, the guy didn't use vindictiveness." There is no momentum to be built, as if the whole body is relaxed, and walks towards him so easily.

But Garin looked at Char who was coming, and suddenly got angry in his heart, a strange feeling that even he didn't understand.

It's as if, walking towards oneself is not a person with a relaxed body, but,

A dragon!!
