Chapter 140: The Unspeakable Agreement (3)
"The spell of the Stardust Crystal Ball." Winter narrowed his eyes, "Although it wasn't Selena herself who gave me that agreement for the first time, I talked to her about it alone. β
Selena Lestus was the former queen of Lestus and a powerful magister who died suddenly ninety-seven years ago.
As a Magister, Selena sometimes attends Magister's meetings, but only appears more than two hundred years ago - before she has had time to inherit the throne, she has more time.
And after succeeding to the throne, because of her more special direct identity than the heir of the kingdom, Queen Selena disappeared directly from the Magister Council and no longer appeared because of this.
Of the four kingdoms, although only Cole forbade the leaders of the kingdom to learn magic, as a model for the common people, so that each generation of descendants could become a magister, it was the exclusive domain of the kingdom of Lestus.
No one knows what the principle is hidden. But many people who are familiar with history books will know that the royal family of Lestus has always been the cradle of mages.
The strange thing is that even the royal mages of the past generations have only one heir to the outside world, both men and women are in the same lineage, and no one has ever died due to blood curses, suffering and scandals.
This is a secret of the royal family, and the people can only assume that they may have a unique way to circumvent the inexplicable Karjeger's disease, or that the only heir on the surface is only one of the survivors.
After all, there are other suspicious things, and it's hard not to care:
Every generation of queens or kings of the House of Lestus, without exception, has not publicly been partners with whom they have procreation.
It is better to say that there are some eccentricities of one generation, if this is the case in every generation, then let alone conspirators, even ordinary people have sufficient capital of suspicion.
It's like their child, just a person who looks like themselves out of thin air.
- However, there are exceptions, such as the kingdom of Lestus, which is now in place of feudalism, not only does he follow the habits of his ancestors, but he never hears from a successor such as a princess or a prince.
Erling sighed with some regret.
"To be honest, Selena's ability has amazed me - although it is not as terrible as Lucifer to break all the rules, I'm sure that even if she wasn't born into the royal family, she would still be Lestus...... No, the entire continent is shocked by the Magister, and the throne is her limitation. β
After only more than 100 years of activity, Selena's appearance is similar to the starfall event that caused her death, like a meteor that pierces the sky, and it also looks unpredictable and mysterious under the constant cover of the clouds.
Because of this, only a few of the three people present had a more in-depth and direct understanding of the queen's personality beyond the routine.
Quint lifted the brim of his hat and bowed his head slightly as a brief but solemn tribute to the deceased.
"Even though I had only met twice, the second time I made an agreement, and I didn't say a few words, I was still impressed by Queen Lestus's amazing popularityβshe had convinced me that Lestus would prosper more and more under her rule."
Della raised an eyebrow, "I've seen her twice, too." However, the first time I hadn't become a Magister, and the second time I recognized it, she didn't react much. β
"If I'm not mistaken, from the moment the agreement with you was made, it was Selena who began to take over her father's practice and carry out the tasks of the Lestus family?"
Winter turned his head to look at Quint and saw him nod, then turned his gaze to the group.
"They claim to be the guardians of the Mirnik Heights, and hold extraordinary secrets - and the secrets we left in the stardust crystal ball are part of it. And now, that thing should be in Lucifer's hands. β
Caroline frowned, "That woman looks like wood to me, beautiful and pretty, lifeless, and unprovoked. β
This is the first time she has taken the initiative to admit it.
And Sonny spread his hands, "After the agreement was reached, I left this matter behind me and didn't even bother to think about it." As for looks...... Personally, I don't feel much different from Caroline. β
"What are your eyes?!"
"The color scheme is similar to her son, and it can be seen that it is very likely to be biological."
Sunny nodded matter-of-factly, it seemed that he knew a lot about the folk rumors.
- For example, compared to the royal feng shui wizard, the heirs of Lestus may all be magical geniuses picked up, and they may have to fight in a nest and finally live as the heir.
All in all, they weren't much concerned about the fact that Winter finally brought up the Stardust Crystal Ball in Lucifer's hands, and it was better to discuss the woman who died ninety-seven years ago than this.
Della seemed to be in the same reaction range as them, and after saying this, she sat down with a flat face.
In this way, based on the age boundary, the four Magisters in their two hundreds, except for Quint, who was about to celebrate his third hundredth birthday, were not very interested in Winter's proposal.
But fortunately, there is a more unsociable guy who can be used as a striking contrast.
Only Westward looked confused, stunned and puzzled, "What are you talking about?" β
He was only one hundred and seventy years old, and he happened to be the youngest magister among all the people present.
When the sunny and cheerful vampire encounters an unimpressed topic, the others seem to know it well, and directly ignore the important process of explaining the original situation, and express their opinions one after another.
He couldn't sit still, only feeling that he had been excluded again, and he was extremely aggrieved.
Seeing that others were indifferent to his expressions, as if he were a transparent person for such a handsome vampire, Westward decided to make some workarounds and repeated it louder first.
"No, what the hell were you talking about? Stardust crystal ball? A secret pact with the Queen? What's the use? What are you going to do? β
The five consecutive questions finally attracted the attention of others, but it was only impatient.
Sonny touched his ears, his eyes were irritable, and he just hoped that the big brother would stop sooner so that he could give himself some peace.
"It's an agreement. Vesward, you probably didn't become a Magus until a few years before Selena died, and you didn't have time to get to the door......"
Caroline immediately interrupted him, her eyes lit up, and she was extremely solemn, "Rodriguez, don't forget, the content of the quid pro quo!" β
"Yes, I didn't say I was going to tell him the whole truth." Sunny waved his hand, then looked at Visward again, "I guess you won't care if you meet - it's a pact about 'death', that's all I can say." β
Visward blinked, not figuring out what Sonny meant implicitly, but instead scratching his heart with the overly brief clues.
Seeing that Sonny was reluctant to say more, and even covered his ears in advance to avoid the magic sound, the vampire held his face in the moonlight in frustration, looking rather pitiful on the outside, but in fact he deeply examined his lack of understanding of racial talent and his inability to manipulate the spirit of the Magister.
