Although few of the big names frequented it, the maids and gardeners did not dare to slack off, for an important figure of the clan had been living here since two months ago. That man was the genius of the Hart family, Kozmo Hart.

After the eldest young master returned from the ruins, he locked himself in a forest hut in the backyard of the manor, and three meals a day were transported by special personnel, and the people almost never saw Kozmo come out for two months.

At this moment, in the dense forest leading to the hut, Fern, carrying a magic lamp, was eagerly walking towards his destination.

"That guy Kozmo is sick, shut himself up in such a dark place, didn't he like to go out and spend time drinking before. ”

Fern cursed under his breath as he hurried. The forest is not large, but the trees inside are extremely luxuriant. Even in the daytime, it is as dark as walking inside, with a thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground, and a faint smell of decay fills the air with a long fermentation.

shout

Suddenly, a figure flashed, and the fallen leaves on the ground were lifted to make a "rustling" sound.

"Who'!!"

Fern shuddered, raised the lamp and looked in that direction but found nothing.

shout

Another figure flashed, and Ferne's cold hairs stood on end, and he quickly filled himself with a bottle of Swiftness Elixir and Flying Elixir, ready to run away at any time. With these two potions, even a high-ranking warrior can soar into the sky like a falling star, and it is not too easy to use to escape for his life.

"Oh, Fern, when did you become so bold, weren't you so bold when you gave me that potion. ”

A hoarse voice came from all directions, and it looked terrifying in the silence of the woods, but Fern calmed down a lot when he heard it.

"Kozmo, it's you, right? Come out, my friend, we haven't seen each other for a long time. ”

Fern shouted around, and though Kozmo's voice was a little different, he could make out it.

As soon as the words fell, a thin figure wrapped in black clothes and revealing only a pair of blood-red eyes quietly appeared behind Fern.

"Fern, you still dare to come to see me!"

Fern only felt a chill behind him, and it felt like he was being targeted by a poisonous snake. When he turned around, he met Kozmo's blood-red eyes without the slightest emotion.

bang

Fern stumbled and sat down on the ground in fright.

"Kozmo, what are you doing dressed like this? ”

"Follow me. ”

Kozmo left this sentence and ignored Fern, turning and walking deeper into the woods.

"Hey, why are you going so fast, wait for me. ”

......

In the town of Bandel, deep in the woods behind Hart's manor, there is a two-story log cabin that Arris, the previous patriarch of the Hart family, would come to live in for a while when he was upset. Today, the hut has become Kozmo's exclusive residence, and usually even those who bring food can only put food outside the hut, and if anyone dares to approach the hut, Kozmo will riot and kill, without giving a chance to defend himself.

Today, the chalet welcomes its second person since Kozmo moved in – Fern.

"Sit casually. ”

After speaking, Kozmo began to take off his black clothes, revealing his shriveled body inside. Fern, who had just entered the house, screamed in fright when he saw Kozmo's current appearance.

"Kozmo, how did you end up like this. ”

The former Kozmo was tall and handsome, coupled with his status as the eldest young master of the Hart family, he was definitely the best choice for lovers in the eyes of the girls of Doha Nikz.

However, now his whole body seemed to have shrunk, his skin was as dry as an old man who was about to die, his eye sockets were deep, and his blonde hair was also withered, especially the blood-red eyes, as if he wanted to suck people's souls into them. No matter who it is, it is difficult to connect him with the eldest young master of the Hart family before.

"Why, what's wrong with this? good-looking skins will eventually decay, and only strength is eternal. ”

Kozmo's eyes shone bloodthirsty, and there was an extremely terrifying aura on his body.

"Ha, haha, yes, only strength is the most important thing, you're right. ”

Fern casually echoed a few words, he was already thinking in his heart that Kozmo must have encountered something in the ruins, otherwise the whole person would not have changed so much.

"Tell me why you're here, and who you want to kill with my hand. ”

Kozmo made it clear, and all the rhetoric that Fern had prepared was stillborn.

"Haha, it's not interesting for you to say this, I'm here to show you something today. ”

Fern pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment and took out a memory crystal ball in his hand.

"Whew!!"

As soon as the video began to play, a dragon groan came, and the footage recorded in it was naturally the image of So'ou finally suppressing the dragon's head and successfully inscribed the totem.

"Sawn Degen!!

Kozmo looked at the blue-haired figure, the hatred in his eyes undisguised. Half of the reason why I became like this is because of him. Despite his great power, the once tall and handsome Kozmo can never come back, and "strength is eternal, skin is a floating cloud" is a lie for self-comfort.

That's what Fern wants, and the more Kozmo hates Sawo, the happier he becomes, so now he has to add to the fire.

"Don't you look at that kid, don't you think that sword is familiar?"

"Sword? is this...... Dragon Shadow Flame Sword !! How could it be, didn't this sword have never been found? how could it be in his hand, ......?"

"Yes, I think the same thing as you, I think the death of Patriarch Aris has nothing to do with him, and maybe even he killed him. According to the information I received, during the time of Patriarch Arris's death, this kid had indeed been to the Boundless Forest Domain, so his suspicion was very high, and the Dragon Shadow Phantom Sword was the best evidence. ”

"Hmph, originally he and I had a personal grudge, but now it seems that he has become the enemy of our entire family. Very good, the old and new hatreds are settled together. ”

Looking at the happy face of Sawo's successful inscription in the image, Kozmo's teeth itched, his eyes flashed red, and the memory crystal was directly shattered.

"Hehe, don't worry, this guy is not only your enemy, he is also the one I swore to get rid of. To deal with him, we still have to think of a perfect way, you can also see, now that he has been promoted to the control level, even my teacher can't do anything about him, and he stays in the alchemy union all day, you can't do anything if you want to. ”

"Mastery?! No wonder you want to kill him, this kid is much more talented than you. But no matter what, since he even dares to kill the patriarch of our Hart family, even if he is a palace-level alchemist, he will have to die!!"

"We still have to plan how to deal with him, the forces behind him are not simple, just a lion king is not something we can afford to provoke, we have to let him disappear silently, at least not to make people suspicious of us. ”

"And what are your plans?"

"Hehe, of course I have a plan, let's ...... like this"

Unbeknownst to Soou, who was far away in the Alchemy Guild, a conspiracy was brewing in this forest hut.
