Chapter 367: Attel's Gift
What a familiar magic!
Ivan distinctly remembered that the closest he came to this magic was when he swam towards Sloth.
At that time, Lightgill lit up with an ice-blue light, which seemed to be colder than the sea, and seemed to be the same temperature as Ivan's own body...... Merge with the surging aura of ice around Sloth.
Ivan immediately turned his head to look at his wrist, and the wrist wheel in his sleeve seemed to have become cold and piercing at this moment, as if echoing the jewel in the box. A flash of lightning flashed in his mind, and he immediately understood what it was, but he still felt that it was impossible......
"You killed Sloth. "You and Laxis Flotica killed the Seventh General, didn't you?"
"I'm ......," Ivan looked up at Yatel in horror. Artel nodded slowly, and the shallow smile on the corner of his mouth had an indescribable deep meaning.
"Ivan, you've already discovered it, this is the core of Sloth. Sloth was dead, and his magic was almost exhausted before he died. Miss Flotica had never meant to let her go, and perhaps Miss Flotica was just trying to take her back to Idgrasius. Now, the magic core is in your hands, and your magic weapon also hides the magic of Sloth......"
Artel closed his eyes, then opened them suddenly.
"Well, perhaps, you can turn Sloss's cause of death into a 'fact' in Miss Flotica's favor. ”
"Wait!"
With a snap, Ivan slammed the small box of refining metal shut. The magical aura of the sea of ice was gone. The air finally warmed up, and he took a hard breath and pressed the box against the table, staring intently at Artel's calm face.
"How do you know that my magic artifact contains the magic of Sloth?"
Yatel said he found this at the bottom of the sea.
Ivan remembered that the silver wolves were busy helping the demon hybrids on the Ghost Islands to evacuate to the land of the Nome tribe, and Laxis also left quickly, and they did not look for the corpse of Sloth. Yatel had been to the Ghost Islands and knew that Ivan was there at the time, but. Unless he was near that sea at the time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that Ivan had used the magic of the Ice Witch in Lightgill!
Also, he said, it was Ivan who killed Sloth. Ivan suddenly had a feeling of being targeted, it seemed. When the Silver Wolf is frozen into ice by Sloth. Life is in danger. Aisha threw himself into the deep sea without a single move, and he had to desperately catch up with the Lord Yatel Hernos when he had to catch up with him. Just hiding in a corner and watching them silently, as if an indifferent audience was enjoying a boring drama. This thought made his blood begin to chill.
"Hmm...... You guessed it, at the time, I was nearby, I was on Seagull Island. Yatel quickly understood something from Ivan's expression, and once again took out his hidden left hand, revealing the magic artifact "Black Star".
"I can use space magic, so I can dive down to the sea very smoothly. However, for some complicated reasons, I don't want anyone to know that I used space magic to visit the island, and if someone finds out, maybe I'll tell the secrets of the island's inhabitants for self-preservation. Yatel laughed apologetically, "I'm really sorry, I can't testify on Miss Flotica's behalf, and according to most people's minds, I should be Mr. Borenfutz's companion." Actually, I helped Miss Flotica for some selfish reasons, I know Ivan you don't trust me, but it's okay, I don't have to do anything to frame you. ”
The unexpectedly straightforward answer made Ivan stunned for a while.
Yatel had no intention of gaining his trust, and he did not shy away from telling the fact that he was nearby at the time. If what Artel said was true, and he would use space magic, then it would not be surprising that he had traveled everywhere and knew any secrets. There is one thing that Ivan still agrees with Artel, that is, there is really no need for Artel to do anything in order to frame Laxis and Ivan.
Laxis was in his hands, a "guest" in his house.
And Ivan...... For a Holy Magus who knew space magic, it would be too easy to clean him up.
Then, Artel chose to hand over Sloth's magic core to Ivan for his own reasons, just to let Ivan come forward to clear Laxis's guilt, and he could stay out of the matter safely. What good will Artel do in this way, Ivan is not very clear for a while.
However, Ivan couldn't think of anything better than to accept this gift from Artel. No, it should be said that even if he got Sloth's magic core, as an ordinary executor, what could he do to make this magic core evidence favorable to Laxis
Yes.
The terrible thought that popped up in an instant made Ivan shiver again.
As long as he admits that he is a pawn secretly arranged by Laxis...... That's it.
Ivan pressed the small box under his palm in a daze, and seemed to feel the extreme cold soaking his whole body from the palm of his hand. The thoughts gradually became clear in the cold, but there was still a kind of insistence in my heart that refused to think in this direction.
No......
You can't do that!
From the beginning, he was framed for being mistaken for a pawn by a suspicious person like Barran, and nearly died in the unfamiliar town of Takamo. Carlo's angry roar still rings in his ears.
You lied to me!
Now, Carlo has understood that he was forced to use the name of Laxise to go to Wēixié Barlan, but he has to admit that he really deceived Carlo! Should he be asked to tell Sù Carlo that he is really in contact with Laxis? Without the knowledge of Xiulin and Ashia, he is doing something "secretly". He...... He's not that kind of person at all!
Laxis had been told not to say anything. Laxis hopes that neither Sloth nor the Ghost Isles will have anything to do with Ivan, because if Ivan is involved, it means Isha, the little wolf, and even the Nome Clan's Fort Selfendi, as well as those who have protected Ivan without knowing. Perhaps what Laxis hopes is that even if she has to bear all the sins imposed on her alone, innocent people will be able to get through it safely.
Actually, Laxis couldn't find a way to save herself! Otherwise, it had been a few days, why hadn't she solved the problem? Why hadn't she heard the news that she was safe?
In the whirlpool of power, even the mighty Laxis is difficult to stand firm!
The crow's accomplices know Laxis, and probably know Laxis better than Ivan, they must have known that Laxis could not save themselves, so they would risk their lives to save her!
But he couldn't save Laxis! Even if the core was in his hands, he couldn't save Laxis!
