Chapter 223:

But because of this, no one knew the situation in Orena, let alone that the King of Spells had left the island.

...

Ageless myths, immortal legends.

In the end how many years have passed, Roman can't know. The two world lines that the two are on, time has lost its meaning, the only thing that can be known is that the woman in front of her is still familiar with that person, and Roman is no longer the Roman that was before.

Bright long hair, dazzling like golden sand under the sun. Looking at his eyes full of unshakable perseverance, and clear as gems. The beautiful face is like a goddess in mythology, no, she is a goddess, a goddess who is always beautiful.

"Our meeting is ten years late."

The blonde girl said with a smile.

She didn't mean to complain, but simply stated the fact.

The clear and melodious bell tones of women's voices are actually more neutral. If you put on men's clothes, you will become a peerless beautiful man.

"The world is more complex than you think."

The white man sitting opposite replied, with a faint apology on his face, but he quickly regained that confident smile.

Also, the joy of reunion after a long absence.

"It's great to see you, Lancelot."

"Me too, it's really a joy to see you."

Lancelot and Roman, two people who met many years ago, are an opportunity that no one in this world could have imagined.

On the other side of time and space, the two got acquainted. It was the relationship between the protector and the protected. After a short time together, they separated.

However, the parting did not make their feelings subside, and their friendship, as clear as spring water, defeated time as always.

"The first time I heard the 'King of Spells', I already thought of you. If you can become the person above others, the king of kings, that person will only be you."

"This kind of compliment without any compliments...I take it."

I'm a little embarrassed in my heart, if it's too straightforward, it makes Roman feel at a loss. Although it is not unheard of, the sorcerers who didn't know Roman at all gave more compliments with fear.

And Lancelot is different. She is Roman's old friend, a knight who once guarded him, a woman like a big sister.

"I take the liberty to ask, what about Miss Zi? In the past ten years, I have never heard of her."

The smile on Roman's face gradually disappeared. He picked up the milk tea on the table and took a sip, as if to hide his thoughts.

"Really? It seems that you are not well."

Lancelot did not continue to ask, although regretted, but not surprised.

Long ago, Lancelot had already seen the twisted relationship between Roman and Xiao Zi. Their future was doomed to many twists and turns. If everything went well, it would make Lancelot feel incredible. But Lancelot didn't remind him at that time, because even Xiao Zi didn't notice his feelings, and Lancelot, who was an outsider, couldn't get involved.

It can only be said that the timing of her appearance was not right.

"Stop talking about her."

Roman shook his head, and there was a gentle smile on his face, as if he once doted on that daughter's smile.

"I'm going to be a father, Lancelot, she's a girl."

For the first time, Lancelot's face lost his composure, and her handsome face showed surprise, seeing Roman unable to speak for a while.

The news was really sudden, and Lancelot never thought that when he saw Roman again, he already had another child.

"congratulation."

After a long time, Lancelot responded with a complicated expression. She seemed to be able to guess the reason why Xiao Zi and Roman had fallen out.

"What can I do for you? Blessings? Teaching martial arts?"

"No, she's in danger now, what she needs is—'mother'."

...

The appearance of the king of magic attracted the attention of the magic world, but their attention was quickly attracted by Kusanagi Godou. The birth of Campione is a major event that affects the changes in the entire magic world, and no society turns a blind eye. .

In the headquarters of the "Bronze Black Cross", Paul listened to Erica's report after returning from Sardinia.

He is already a man who is almost forty years old, but he still retains the vigor of a young man. Paul Brandley's body has undergone rigorous exercise, and his face is as straight as a marble, full of intelligence and temperament. People who don't know may think he is a young man in his early twenties. Even if he claims to be a scholar, no one will deny it.

If the most powerful knight in Italy is Salvatore Toni, then the most senior knight above it, the only man with the title of "Supreme Knight", is Paul.

Someone once described him like this - "His figure is as great as David's", but unfortunately no one has said that since ten years ago.

He listened to Erica's report, listened to her telling of everything that had happened the moment he arrived in Sardinia. All the things that the eyes see, and all the sounds that the ears hear, from the moment they got off the plane and appeared at the airport, to the moment they left Sardinia and parted ways with everyone.

If there is a third party here, they will find that Erica is wrong. Her face is expressionless, and the pupils of her eyes are dilated, like an emotionless puppet.

However, Erica's had already been discovered, so Paul sent the other subordinates back and asked Erica to report with him alone.

When Erica finished speaking all about what she saw in Sardinia, her eyes finally recovered, and it seemed that she had returned to normal. But Paul could see that hidden in her eyes was a deep fear.

"Erica, are you okay?"

There was concern and apology in his voice.

Paul is Erica's uncle, but Erica's parents died when she was still young, so Erica has been pulled up by Paul since she was a child. He is like a father, and he cares about Erica. There will be no falsehood.

Even if he deliberately let Erica close to Roman.

PS1: After get off work, dinner, overtime, bathing, sleeping, I am indeed a hero among social animals.

PS2: I revised Chapter 14, in fact, just added a picture. I forgot about it at that time, and I was really busy.

PS3: Normal updates may resume in January.

380 Chapter 18 "Shadow of Shadows"

"Uncle knew from the beginning that the 'King of Spells' was in Sardinia, right?"

Facing his niece's questioning, Paul didn't deny it, he nodded, looking at Erica's eyes full of love.

"I knew from the beginning that the King of Spells was living in seclusion in Sardinia, and he didn't hide it from me. Apart from the 'Bronze Black Cross', the 'Bronze Black Cross' has always kept in touch with the King of Spells. From the 'king of swords', the king of spells..."

"I know."

Erica interrupted her uncle, and she shook her head, still feeling her brain dizzy.

Every time she recalled the scene when Tony and Kusanagi Godou violated the curse, Erica felt as if her soul had left her body.

"So my uncle told me to contact the King of Spells, right? If he was the King of Spells, maybe I wouldn't even have the courage to raise my head to face him. But if the other side is just 'Romani Archiman' ' It doesn't matter. If you understand the King of Conjuration through Romani Archiman's perspective, even if you finally understand the true identity of the King of Conjuration, the fear of the King of Conjuration will be lessened."

Erica is talented and intelligent, she is a genius of beauty and intelligence, so she easily understands Paul's plan.

"Forgive me Erica, I know it's not enough respect for you."

"I didn't mean to blame my uncle, and I knew he did it for my own good. But I was very angry."

Erica straightened her waist, her small body stood up like a javelin, and her charming face was raised like a proud lion.

But the face of this lion was full of anger, and the eyes full of expression became sharp.

"But I still failed. Not only did I not escape from the shadow of the King of Spells, but I also failed my uncle's expectations of me, and finally I had to run back in despair."

Erica's anger was burning at her own ineffective self, especially when she thought about the night she was in fear of witnessing Kusanagi Godou's death from a curse.

When he went out the next day, Kusanagi Godou had already been resurrected, and the layman still had an ignorant expression, which made Erica even more angry.

"It seems my worries are superfluous."

Seeing Erica who was suddenly refreshed, Paul finally breathed a sigh of relief. Erica, who he regarded as his own daughter, was not knocked down, and he was still proud to meet the Queen of Spells this time. Judging from the current situation, I believe that it will not take long before Erica will escape the shadow brought by the King of Spells.

But soon, Paul fell into another worry.

"Thank you for your hard work, Erica, you should rest well during this time."

"Then I'll quit my uncle first. You don't need to worry about me. I won't be knocked down so easily."

Erica said goodbye to Paul and left the "Bronze Black Cross" headquarters and returned to her house.

...

- That's hell.

Erica Bradley lives in a **** called "Solomon".

Erica, who is still young, performs her first mission.

She was still young that year, but she had already learned martial arts that did not match her age. Under Paul's education, Erica was no match for ordinary adults, but Paul misestimated the madness of the enemy .

Shouting Solomon's name, with a weird smile on his face, against the descending King Solomon from the First Temple, the magicians died silently.

like hell.

The same people who died, and Erica who knew nothing about it, died of a curse.

Even though Erica has come back to life, the shadow of being cursed to death has always been with her, and the "King of Curses" and "King Solomon" have become her dreams.

...

Although her parents died when she was young, it does not mean that Erica has nothing. On the contrary, her parents left Erica a lot of property. In addition, Erica has a lot of houses in her own name. In terms of property alone, Erica can be regarded as a small rich man.

However, because she is underage, she lives in the Brandy House.

After returning to her room, Erica lay on the bed as if she was collapsed, her weak body motionless, and her closed eyes made her look like she was asleep.

Her body was oozing sweat from fear and weakness, and the viscous bodily fluids clinged to the gorgeous gown, making her figure flawless for the moment.

It's just that Erica, who is the client, is not proud of her perfect figure. She doesn't even want to move a finger now, and the sticky feeling makes her very uncomfortable.

In fact, Erica didn't tell her uncle everything, or it was a detail that even she herself was accidentally overlooked.

The time when she died because of a curse, during the period from death to resurrection, her consciousness did not fall into a long sleep, but entered a vague world.

All she could see was a vague shadow, and she heard a hoarse voice. Although he couldn't see it clearly, his intuition told Erica that it should be a cage—a prisoner who was imprisoned.

Hate, anger, like a virus that keeps infecting Erika, making her mentally ill to this day.

That's right, it wasn't King Solomon who gave Erika the fear, but the prisoner who exuded anger and hatred. This conclusion, which was not discovered until that night in Sardinia, the truth that cast a shadow on Erica finally became clear, but it once again brought her fear.

"That person, who is it?"

Erica didn't dare to imagine deeply, because it would only bring her new fears. Even if she wants to get rid of the shadow brought by the prisoner, Erica knows the reason why curiosity killed the cat. Now that she is not in good spirits, she rashly touches the shadow, which will only put a heavy burden on her heart.

It's an incredible thing that the mere imagination can create fear. In the end is the influence of childhood shadows? Or the influence of the imprisoned person? Erica doesn't know, if it's the latter, it would be too scary.

Just, why did she go to that place? Why did you meet that prisoner? Erica was puzzled by this, but she was sure that if it was the King of Spells, she should be able to give her the answer.

"Really... Since you are the king of spells, of course you can know the answer."

Erica muttered to herself with a wry smile.

Regardless of whether it has anything to do with Roman, if Roman wants to know, he can't hide it from him. Because Solomon has the highest level of vision, it is said that his vision has enabled him to see the past and the future, and nothing can hide his eyes.

Speaking of which, except that Erica became nervous when facing Roman because of fear, the King of Spells did not have the majesty of being a "king" when they were getting along, no, it should be said "Romani Archiman" and " Solomon" is simply two different personalities.

"Maybe we should ask him next time we meet."

PS: There will be an update later.

381 Chapter 19 "Mother" Candidate

"You know what? You've changed a lot. When I saw you just now, I thought I had the wrong person."

"Is it that big? I feel the same as before."

Roman reached out his hand and gently stroked his face. He didn't know how much he had changed, because it took a long time to accumulate gradually, and he who looked in the mirror every day couldn't find it.

"It's not a change in age, you still look young, but you have become more mature, and there is a huge difference in temperament from you. But you are still you, and this has not changed. In the long river of time , Humans, gods, demons, some have become lunatics, some have become rotten, some have fallen into beasts, there are very few who maintain their original hearts, they are all famous people. I am very happy to see yours again You still keep your heart."

The years did not leave marks on Roman's face, but his changes were more obvious than the years. Maybe back in the original world, people in the past can no longer recognize Roman, because that ignorant boy has become a famous king.

The two were walking on the commercial street. Roman put on his own disguise, the orange-haired doctor looked inconspicuous, and no one could associate him with the "King of Spells". On the contrary, after peeling off the cape of the wanderer, Lancelot revealed a beautiful face, and his peerless appearance will make people feel amazing wherever he goes.

It is a pity that no one will stay on the two of them even in the bustling commercial street.

"Silent Coin", this is the magic that was seen in "Orianna Thomson" in the previous world, this is a spell based on "dispelling idlers". Under the blessing of this technique, as long as you turn your back to the other party, the other party will have the idea of ​​"there is nothing to stop him" and "talk to him next time".
