Chapter 127: The Princess's Promise
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
There is no doubt that the information about Fran is the top secret of the King of Gurant. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!) If it spreads, others will wonder if the ancestor of the Gurant is a warlock. For the king of the kingdom of the sword, such speculation can have fatal consequences. His honor will be crushed, and even the legitimacy of occupying the throne will be lost.
But...... The news that Fran is a warlock has leaked. This is an incredible oversight, incomprehensible. In the more than ten years that Fran has been growing up, it is clear that Golant has done a perfect job of secrecy. Curt wanted to know if the person who led Gulrant to be in trouble would be a pig teammate like Robert.
"Excuse me...... Who are you?"
While Curt was pondering, Fran disarmed the invisibility. She asked, with obvious curiosity, timidly. As she spoke, the ears on Fran's head kept spinning. Her tail also wagged repeatedly behind her back, and the whole person looked like a cute little animal.
Curt woke up from his musings, scratching his head in embarrassment. He bowed gracefully and said with a smile:
"My name is Curt, Your Highness the Princess. I am from the city of a thousand laws, and I am an ally of your father. ”
"No wonder you have such strong magic. ”
Fran blinked, relieved. She stared at Curt and said in an envious tone:
"You have a strong affinity, and you have almost become one with the magic web, but you deliberately reject the magic net temporarily...... That's amazing, Mr. Curt. Can you teach me how to use the power of the magic net freely?"
“...... My methods may not work for you, Your Highness the Princess. ”
Curt was secretly surprised, but didn't show it. He looked at Fran carefully. Suddenly, he was in the depths of Fran's pupils. Shimmering with a purple glow. According to the materials read. Curt speculates that Fran may have a natural eye for demons. The Demon Eye is a natural ability, and its effects are far superior to those of the arcane vision.
Those who possess this ability can see the connection point between the magic web and reality. So even though Curt is perfectly disguised, Fran sees his essence at a glance. Luckily, Fran has barely left her room since she was born. Her eyes widened innocently, and she listened to Curt say thoughtfully:
"You are a warlock, Your Highness the Princess. The so-called warlocks. Just follow your instincts. Using the power of the magic web is not difficult for you, it is as natural as breathing. You're the darling of the Magic Net, and seriously, I should be envious of you. ”
"But...... I can only get to the sixth net, and then I can't get over it again. Although the previous few magic nets also took a lot of effort when they were opened. But they weren't like the Seventh Net, so strong that I couldn't get through it. The magic net is really stingy, I thought it would keep me going to the innermost part. ”
Fran complained unhappily and uttered a series of words that would have angered a large group of mages. Sixth-level spells were already the prerogative of high-level mages, and she was only thirteen or fourteen years old. It's effortless to get your hands on it. Curt finally realized that he was facing a terrifying genius. In time. I'm afraid Fran's accomplishments will be immeasurable. She can at least surpass a ** teacher like Richard, and even chase after Ioham.
This also explains why Jeppen, the land of silver spears, and Britannia, the country of Hundred Peaks, attacked. If Fran grows up and touches the eighth or even ninth layer of the magic net, she will become an unstoppable humanoid weapon. At that time, the ones waiting to be annexed are Jeppen and Britannia.
Even with Jason and Evra's abilities, they have only touched the eighth layer of the magic net in their lifetime. Such a ** division already has the power to run rampant in the world, which is enough to determine the outcome of a war. In case Fran touches the ninth layer of the magic net, she will easily surpass the two ** masters. Because compared to the power of ninth-level spells, even arcane focus can only be regarded as pediatric. The strongest ninth-level spell can even stop time and change reality, which can be called a strategic weapon.
Thinking of this, Curt couldn't help but feel a little ironic. A genius like Fran has never even been seen in the Thousand Law City in a hundred years. She was born in Aotran, the land of swords, and it can only be said that the goddess of magic made a big joke.
"Are you thinking about things?"
For a moment, Curt was a little distracted. So Fran cautiously approached, and curiously stretched out her little hand, dangling it in front of Curt. Curt reacted suddenly, smiling embarrassedly. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said to Fran, who was wagging his tail almost awk:
"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Princess. Your talent is so amazing that it's like you've been blessed by the goddess of magic. Your current achievements are already remarkable, and it will take decades for even the best of mages to attain. Again, you have amazing talent. In the future, as long as you wait patiently and continue to try to enhance the communication with the magic web, you can naturally touch the deeper magic web. ”
It didn't say that Fran was the illegitimate daughter of the Goddess of Magic, but that Curt kept her mouth. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, even he wouldn't have believed that there would be someone like Fran in the world. Fran was born purely for magic, like the incarnation of Mystra, the goddess of magic. As long as there is a famous teacher to guide her, she will definitely become a big figure who leads the times.
In the time that followed, Curt chatted with Fran for a while. Under Curt's deliberate guidance, the topic of conversation became how wonderful the outside world was. When talking about the various things in the Thousand Laws City, Fran listened with two eyes. She squatted like a cat, pressing her hands in front of her. Curt was secretly amused as he sat cross-legged, he couldn't ignore the two whirling ears and a wagging tail.
About two hours later, Curt got up to take his leave. He's already spent too much time with Fran, and there's so much more to do. Fran pouted in disappointment, leaned forward, reached out and grabbed Curt's trouser leg to keep Curt from leaving. Fran pestered Curt unsuspectingly, until Curt said angrily and amusefully:
"Really, I have to go, Your Highness the Princess. Please let me go, if you pull and pull again, I'm afraid that His Majesty Gurant will be angry and can't help but cut off my head. ”
“...... Will you come back?"
Fran reluctantly let go, looking at Curt with a begging look. The helplessness and loneliness in her eyes made Curt feel as if something had been touched inside. So Curt half-knelt down in a not very upright way, put his right hand across his knee and said:
"I swear, I will come to see you often, Your Highness Princess. In fact, I am working for His Majesty the Qurant, and one of my goals is to set you free. If nothing else, in two weeks, you'll be able to leave this room and live in dignity. That's what you deserve, and I'll do my best to get things in order for you. ”
“...... Thank you, Curt. You're like a knight, not a mage at all. ”
Fran waved for a large cushion and fell to the ground in his arms. She cocks her tail and spins clockwise in the air. As Curt was about to push the door open and leave, Fran suddenly propped up her upper body. Her ears and tail stretched straight up at the same time, and she said in a tone of determination:
"Curt, when I'm free, can you take me to Thousand Laws City?"
"This ......"
Curt's body stiffened, he didn't expect this kind of progress. There is no doubt that Eoham will give Fran a warm welcome. But it also meant that Fran became a hostage given to the city by King Gurante. In Curt's shoes, he didn't want to involve Fran in the ensuing chaos after assassinating Iorham.
In the end, after much deliberation, Curt decided to shirk his responsibilities at the expense of his conscience. He nodded, and said with a feigned smile:
"As long as His Majesty Gurant and Queen Maggie agree, I will take you to the City of a Thousand Laws. There will come a day, Your Highness the Princess, please believe me. ”
"Just call me Fran. I'll wait, Curt. ”
Fran was so happy that she was rolling on the mat, unaware that Curt's conscience was bleeding. Taking advantage of the short gap, Curt hurriedly hugged his head and ran away. A lot of the time, he did things with great violiness. But in the face of a pure and innocent girl, Curt still wants to be able to hold on to the virtue of honesty. Of course, things are always difficult to go your way.
Curt leaned against the closed door and took a deep breath. He learned a lot from his meeting with Fran. The last of Curt's doubts about joining forces with King Golant have been dispelled. To achieve this effect, even if Gurrant says that his mouth is rotten, he can't do it. But he only arranged for Curt to meet Fran once, and he achieved his goal.
'Try to bring Fran to the city of a thousand laws. Take this as a goal and accomplish it at any cost. ’
Just as Curt was about to take a step, Ioham's voice suddenly sounded in his head. Eoham chuckled and continued happily:
'What an unexpected joy, Fran is a treasure given by God to the Thousand Law City. If necessary, I will allow you to make a marriage contract with Fran. To Gurant, she is the most beloved, but also a hot potato. If it continues in its current form, I believe that Gulan will also be interesting, and you will marry Qianfa City, right? You are more suitable as a bridge between Qianfa City and Aotlan than Randall. ’
Please, allow me to think about it. ’
Curt felt powerless, which was the last thing he wanted. The words that Iorham had passed through the arcane tattoo made Curt feel like he had become a vile villain. -- Sexually, Curt is not loyal. But he never plays with the soul, that's the bottom line. Eoham laughed a few more times and cut off contact. He knew that Curt couldn't resist him, so he didn't put pressure on him needlessly.
For a moment, Curt had a feeling of mental collapse. He walked forward a little dejectedly, and almost bumped into someone else. Curt reflexively looked up and saw Prince Owen. Owen's expression was a mixture of disdain and anger, and his left hand was gripping the scabbard tightly. (To be continued......)
