Before ascending to God, be a good lord

Chapter 77
Thick smoke billowed, flames shot up into the sky, and everyone was screaming.

"I curse you! I want to curse you forever into this night, and curse your family forever!"

With the dragon king's curse, Lord Maned Wolf's belly was set ablaze.

"I'll kill you!" Kempins was also completely crazy.

"No, Kempins! Don't kill any more!" The earl was a little sobered by the roar, and was suddenly blocked by a person before the throne and the earl.

This woman is so vague, so familiar, with a jeweled emblem in the shape of a wolf's head on the fiery red dress.

That. . .That is. . .Ariana?
The blurred face became clearer and clearer, and countless roars and whispers were tearing at the earl, "Ah, Ali?"

"Cabbins! No!" A scream stopped the count completely.

"Where am I? Is this there? Why is this happening?"

When Earl Maned Wolf woke up, he found himself hugging his wife, Ariane Red Dragon, watching the hot blood dripping from his hand to the ground.

A dozen steps away, Arnold Red Dragon, the current king of the Dragon Kingdom, fell to the ground.

"No!" Kebbins finally remembered that he was trying to assassinate the king, but his wife stood in front of Arnold Red Dragon.

"Kabins...don't do this again...you have been blinded by those promises...wake up...my Kempins...let's not stay in the capital anymore. ...Let's go home." The countess comforted the count with her last strength.

"Honey, don't close your eyes, let's go home, go back to our wolf den, don't care about these dragons," the count whimpered.

The fire was suddenly extinguished, and the light spilled into the hall from outside the door.

"The Prime Minister of the Empire has arrived, all personnel stop, and those who disobey the order will be killed!" The loud voice echoed over the palace, but the earl could no longer hear it.

. . . . . .

"No!" In an instant, the count woke up.

Tears blurred Lord Cabins Maned Wolf's eyes, but he still recognized the ceiling of his room in Blue Magpie Castle.

Every month, he would go back to that night 9 years ago more than once. From the initial fear to the later humiliation, the moment when the dream ended was the Earl's warmest moment, because at this moment his Ah Liana is so clear.

"How are the vassals?" These were the first words the earl said after waking up.

"Master Earl, are you awake?" The waiter at the side noticed that the Earl was awake, and hurried over, "Hurry up and invite the Eldest Young Master!"

"I'm asking how your vassals are doing!" the count roared angrily, and the voice was so loud that Fernando who rushed over from the door was also startled.

"They're all fine, father!" Fernando ran to the count's bedside, comforting him constantly, and telling him the latest situation.

"That dragonborn lady, Guleia Blue Dragon, took action to disperse the barbarian cavalry. The vassals have all returned. Your abdominal injury was also suppressed by Ms. Guleia!"

"I see," the earl breathed a sigh of relief, "how long have I been asleep?"

"In less than a day." Fernando looked at the count, hesitated and said, "Father?"

"Tell me, who's here?"

"His Excellency McLaren Blue Dragon"

"Humph"

. . . . . . .

"The Earl must have been cursed by Long Yan." In a guest room in the castle, the dragon-born girl Guleya Lanlong said to Antreche and two middle-aged men.

"I've helped him stabilize the curse, but that's just it. I'm afraid the Earl's body will continue to deteriorate."

"I'm afraid it has something to do with what happened 9 years ago. The curse that can make the Silver Knight burn directly is probably planted by His Majesty Arnold Red Dragon." The speaker is one of the three pillars of the Dragon Kingdom, the legendary knight McLaren Blue Dragon.

"I didn't expect that such a curse could last until today." Another middle-aged man is the magister of the Kingdom Academy of Magic and the highest-level magician of the Maned Wolf family, Cohen Maned Wolf.

"Arnold was able to curse Kempins on the throne back then. The throne carries the faith of the entire kingdom, allowing the curse to break from the level of a magister to the level of a legend."

"As far as I know, after that incident nine years ago, both the Tower of Purity and the Temple Alliance participated in the aftermath and exiled a group of knights who participated in the coup. of."

"I didn't expect that this group of barbarians could know the secrets of the past!"

"I'm afraid this isn't something that a group of savages who dig salt in the salt mine every day can come up with."

. . . . . . .

In the lord's room of Blue Magpie Castle, Earl Maned Wolf braced himself to meet McLaren Blue Dragon and Cohen Maned Wolf.

"Kabbins, like I said, we're here to see if there's anything we can do to help you. There's no other purpose, and it's not about any family trying to seize the territory of the Northwest. Don't worry too much."

In order to take care of the old maned wolf's physical condition, the legendary knight suppressed his fighting spirit so that the earl could look at him at the same level. Even so, only the earl maned wolf could barely look him in the eyes in the room.

"Yes, His Majesty and all the adults sent the Dragon Knights to the Northwest Territory in the name of escort to protect the integrity of the Northwest Territory."

Although Cohen Maned Wolf is the leader of the Maned Wolf family, he does not belong to the same family as the Earl. He has heard a lot of gossip about the Earl and the Northwest Territory in the magic tower of the capital for a long time.

Now that Cohen Maned Wolf has been appointed, he is more of a messenger specially selected by the high-level kingdom to make Earl Maned Wolf less resistant. No matter what Cohen himself thinks about Kebbins and the current Northwest Territory, he must say Said.

"Nine years ago, you asked me to persuade Arnold to abdicate, and I did." The earl said calmly, but McLaren could hear the anger in it.

"He abdicated, and Du Sen, whom you all recognized, came up, but what about the marriage you promised?
You promised to make my family a magister family." The earl became more and more excited, "but look at me now, what do I have left? "

"Cabbins, don't talk about it. We can't do anything about what happened back then. Prime Minister Mitroja personally arranged the next thing." McLaren was a little guilty when he spoke. Promises are a great stain on nobles of any level.

"But you didn't suffer, the curse on you can't be suppressed without a legendary priest.

Even this recurrence was suppressed by the descendants of our family. "Legend knew he was wrong, so he frantically sought compensation.

"Yes, Your Excellency, but who was I cursed for back then? Who betrayed me now, so that my success in killing the barbarian fell apart at the last moment?"

"Who else? Of course, the bugs in front of the palace, who else would dare to collude with other races so blatantly?"

The room fell silent again, and Earl Maned Wolf was still looking at the legendary knight.

"So, our Northwest County should be sacrificed?"

"I can help you delay for a while, and prevent other forces from intervening." McLaren finally let go, "But now that the barbarians are present, you can't launch the second round of decisive battle with your body. You have to think about what to do next. end."

The count nodded, and finally heaved a sigh of relief as he watched the legendary knight and fellow magister leave.

The family territory was still preserved by him, although it was only temporarily.
