Chapter 608: Gambling Contract
This time, all the glowing words turned into a dazzling gold, and the golden light permeated every corner, and the entire floor of the space was filled with light!
The magical barrier on the door rolled up like magma, and then, like a volcanic eruption, it spewed up.
There was a loud roar that shook the small windows and flew out. Na'er couldn't help but cover her ears and close her eyes, and hurriedly opened her eyes again.
The light quickly faded, and the vision in front of me seemed to be still shaking.
Gravel bounced on the floor under the utterly destroyed wooden door, and an open window greeted the wind from above.
Under the flying pale green curtains, a woman of the Yu tribe dressed in a luxurious long yellow dress and long lilac hair sat calmly at the small tea table.
She just put down the teacup in her hand.
"You're here for me, Mr. Magus?"
The woman of the Yu clan had an indifferent smile on her face. She was kind-faced, not even the slightest bit of an unexpected look, as if she had met a very familiar guest.
Ivan knew she was Judith because she did have hair as pale purple as moonlight under the enchantment, just as Freya had said. Freya said that her adoptive mother was old, but Judith didn't look very old, and the wrinkles on her face weren't very obvious, and she had more of a mature charm than the usual young-looking Feather Woman. She is like a kind aunt.
"I'm ......" Ivan took a step forward. His arm shook and ached, and the pain from the battle with Daphne returned. The force used to break the enchantment just now was too strong, whether it was physical or magical. It's been a long time since I've rested...... I thought I could hold out until everything was resolved, but it turned out to be ...... It's unbearable.
Judith stood up, and Ivan involuntarily stopped.
"You can rest for a while, and let me help you out. Judith said lightly, walking past him with a steady step.
"Are you holding Freya's bracelet?"
"Ahh......h
I can't understand the serene expression of the former queen. But she didn't feel the slightest malice, and her slightly warm voice was not so much calm, but rather a free and easy look.
Nalle stood guard at the door. Judith pulled the hem of her skirt in a silver-gloved hand and turned gracefully.
"Well, it's Freya's bracelet. I gave her the child's bracelet, and I recognized it. Without waiting for an answer, Judith nodded her head and smiled lightly. The footsteps downstairs were getting closer, and Judith took a few steps forward and walked straight to Na'er's side.
Na'er raised her face and looked at this extraordinary Aunt Yu in a daze.
"Don't be afraid. Judith comforted Na'er very calmly, "The people of the Shirling family are very polite and will not be rude to guests. ”
That sounds like a joke.
Because, those who are "very polite". They had already taken out their weapons and put on a posture to surround them. Several arrows were already aimed at them.
As if admiring her own garden, Judith took a look around and tidied up her hair, which had been blown down by the wind. Her tone was still soft, gentle and kind. She still speaks the lingua franca.
"Put down your weapons, don't lose the face of the big family. ”
Maybe some of them knew Judith, or maybe they were just frightened by Judith's calmness, in the encirclement of the purple-clothed servants and the lightly armored guards. There was a hint of confusion. Someone lowered the bow and arrow, and someone withdrew the sword in his hand with a slight hesitation. However, no one retreated. They were firmly guarding the only exit from the top floor of the tower.
Suddenly, a fresh breeze blew up.
Judith lifted her chin slightly, holding the quiet whirlwind in her palm. Without using any tools, she summoned the wind out of thin air. The "very polite" crowd was in a commotion, and the wind danced freely like a cheerful elf. And, if necessary, the wind will show its ferocious fangs at any moment.
"I'm Judith Windling. ”
As the words fell, the commotion of the crowd retreated in unison as if pushed away by the wind. They. It's impossible not to even know the name of the previous queen......
At that moment, outside the wall that had been shaken open, a retrograde wind broke in! Judith turned sharply in the direction of the city of Cadolissa, and at the end of her line of sight there was a large line of white birds flying towards the wind. That's not a bird...... It's the Feathered Clan who spread out their long and narrow white wings!
Devany Shirling's people? Ivan was stunned, how could she come back at such a time? She wasn't ...... Didn't you even think that Ivan would come to her manor?
"You're back. The corners of Judith's mouth hooked up an indescribable smile, a little regretful, but it seemed that there was half joy.
"I'm back, Majesty Judith. ”
As if the wind had brought the cold sound to him, Ivan looked into the distance and could only make out that it was Daphne Shelling in the goose-yellow dress at the forefront, her light grass-colored hair scattered in the wind. I couldn't see her expression clearly, but it was in this voice......
-- It seems to be filled with some kind of long-suppressed affection.
"And, Mr. Ivan Yafir—"
"Huh?"
Ivan couldn't help but exclaim, this distance ...... Also, he's standing behind Judith, so Devany shouldn't be able to see him!
"-I've not dared to underestimate you anymore. ”
At the end of the sentence, Ivan finally heard obvious anger.
"Calm down, my Daphne?" Judith actually used a joking tone at this time, as if Daphne was just a junior who lost her temper, "It's not good for me to leave the room you arranged for me without permission, but you lost this bet?"
Bet, bet?
Ivan was stunned, and his mind briefly stalled for a moment.
...... Sure enough, even if he didn't intervene, Judith, who was once the queen of the Feather Clan, was not without the ability to break the barrier. As a result, every qiē is a bet?
They were deceived by the Feather Clan of Arcatia City, fell into a trap, and escaped with difficulty...... Is it all because of a bet?
Because of Judith and Daphne's ...... Bet?
"No, I didn't lose. In the whirring wind, Daphne's voice echoed from afar, "You say that Freya will return to this land as a true queen......"
The forest trembled.
The two Feather Clan guards rose side by side from the forest, their wings fluttering and fluttering the leaves, and they also ...... The bright blonde hair in the sun. Ivan held his breath suddenly.
It's Freya, tied with rope and suspended between two guards, like a puppet being hoisted. Ivan froze, and Nael exclaimed. Unconsciously, Ivan clenched his fists hard, and suddenly felt that the figure of Devany Shelling was particularly disgusting.
And Daphne was actually laughing.
"Your puppet is now in my hands. She smiled and said. (To be continued......)
