Chapter 196
As Danny's body sank, a few strands of dark red floated up in the originally not-so-clear water of the Nidalee River.

Adelaide is drawing strength from the murder.

The meaning of revenge in the occult has the symbolic meaning of getting everything back. After killing Danny, whether it is to reverse her identity to become a kind fairy or to enhance her existing power, she can do it.

Donna watched the dark blood spread out in the water, her eyebrows twisted together.

Beside her, Julius spat in the flushing water. He felt that he had been tricked, and was about to exchange his feelings of sympathy with his employer, but when he turned around, he found that there was no surprise on Clayton's face.

"You knew this would happen?" he asked angrily.

"I have guessed such an ending. But." Clayton turned to look at the wizard: "I thought you should have expected it too. I have seen you look contemplative several times."

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Julius was quite annoyed.

"I always thought it was done by other bounty hunters commissioned by Professor Christopher. After all, he bid so much money, it was not difficult to find a few spellcasters who were interested. After attracting local people to help hunt down the 'beast', he Just wait for the local hunters to succeed before looting. The assumption is so plausible that I overlooked the possibility of personal enmity."

The phonograph conch that recorded howling wolves almost disturbed the atmosphere of the whole town. He never thought that such a big movement was just to leave one person behind.

"Alas—" he sighed, and then asked curiously, "When did you find out?"

"It started when the little girl said that the best friend she was looking for was a man."

Hearing this answer, the wizard raised an eyebrow: "Then you really have a lot of experience."

Clayton dismisses it: "It's just a matter of common sense."

"What common sense?" Donna asked him confused.

Clayton hesitated: "It may not be common sense to you."

Not only did the poor girl have no friends of the opposite sex, but she also had no friends of the sexes, and he really didn't know how to explain this to her.

The river was rippling again, and Adelaide broke through the water and got out, her face was a little more angry than before.

"Now it's time to give us our due reward." Clayton shouted towards the water.

The water fairy has absorbed at least two living sacrifices now, but her strength is not enough to scare the werewolves. As long as they insist on not entering the water, Adelaide's ability strength is not strong enough to interfere with them.

But Adelaide has a weakness in his hands. As long as she still cares about her father, the werewolf can threaten her with this news.

Fortunately, this girl is quite sensible.

Adelaide had no intention of breaking the contract, she stretched out a hand directly: "Of course, I haven't forgotten about it, please put down that necklace now."

"Just drop it?" Clayton reconfirmed.

"Yes."

The ivory necklace was thrown down decisively, and Adelaide failed to catch it directly, but the ivory material did not sink to the bottom in the water, but floated slightly, drifting against the current towards Adelaide as if possessing magnetic force Germany.

She raised her palm and took a bite, then grabbed the necklace with her bloodstained palm.

As the portrait on the necklace came into contact with the water nymph's blood, Creighton's body began to tremble uncontrollably, and he felt something start growing again in his empty body.

The fate of his disappearance is returning.

Feeling this, his mood suddenly calmed down.

The main purpose of coming to Rewo Town ended here, and he was finally able to free up his hands to do other things.

"We're even," said the Mizusas, her head sinking into the water.

"and many more!"

Clayton suppressed the feeling of discomfort and called her,
Adelaide resurfaced and looked at him puzzled: "I should have fulfilled your request. You don't have to worry that Danny's disappearance will make you suspicious of my fellow villagers. I will deal with it."

"I'm not talking about that." Clayton said, "I remember you mentioned monsters just now. Were you attacked by a leatherworker? I need to know the details. It's best to tell me everything you know. The matter of Sevan is also Same."

"Sorry, I don't know who the leatherworker you mentioned is. We were attacked in the middle of the night, and we couldn't see the appearance of that monster clearly."

At the time of the attack, Adelaide was still only a mortal, and there was still something beyond his power.

However, Clayton still has doubts about this: "You must have something else to hide from me. I suggest you make it clear so that we don't have any misunderstandings in the future. After all, Rewo is a town under the city of Sasha. With such a big commotion, when your priest comes back, he will definitely report it to the city, and some members of the church will come over to conduct a second investigation. At that time, you and your father may no longer be able to stay out of it."

Until now, he is still not sure how many monsters with different habits exist in Rewo, and they may stay here for two weeks or even more than two weeks.

All the behaviors of the leatherworker made him feel abnormal. After all, it was a monster transformed from a human being, not other low-intelligence creatures. That is to say, it was not surprising that it would play tricks and tricks on Creighton, and the victim mentioned by Professor Christopher The beast that doom attracts has not yet been shown, and the situation is actually more complicated than it seems.

"So, you can help me." Adelaide quickly grasped the point from the threat.

Clayton was pleased with her reaction, if she was slower to react, he would have to be the villain in front of Donna.

"To be precise, it is Sasha City Presbyterian Council who can help you."

He motioned for Julius to act, and Julius perked up immediately, giving her advice without end.

He briefly described the status of the Presbyterian Church in Sasha, especially reiterating the treatment and security of its members.

Although the wizard is dissatisfied with Adelaide, his father is advocating to dredge the river again. At this moment, the joining of a water fairy is undoubtedly extremely beneficial.

Adelaide is an elf in the water, and the moment she regains this identity, she will be favored by fate. As long as she is willing to migrate to the dock area of ​​Sasha City, the planned fortifications can be completed more smoothly.

For this invitation, the newly born Mizusawa Fairy did not refuse, but hesitated a little when she mentioned her own affairs.

"Then. Well, consider it a gift."

She told Creighton her story.

Adelaide didn't lie about who Danny was in the first place, he was indeed her friend - once.

In fact, Sewan, Adelaide, and Danny all grew up together. At a certain period of time, they were brothers and sisters, until the age of first love, as Clayton understood, the relationship between them happened. However, the two young people became admirers of Adelaide at the same time.

Adelaide also has a good impression of Sevan, so the two become lovers.

In order to prevent Danny from being injured, Adelaide rejected his pursuit, and at the same time decided to hide their relationship with Sewan from the public.

Sevan did not refuse, because his adoptive father Louis wanted him to inherit his mantle and be a lifelong abstinent black monk. The public affair would not only damage his friendship with Danny, but also arouse family conflicts between him and his father.

They had planned to pick a good time to go to the city together to find a job, so they could avoid people who knew them and not have to hide their love.

This summer, however, Adelaide's eyes changed and the pores on his skin began to disappear.

Everyone noticed this change, but their suspicions were limited to thinking that she used the mydriasis potion circulating in the market, which was a typical example of young girls who are getting better at dressing up.

Except for Sevan and Danny who knew that this was unusual because they often visited her, only Priest Louis noticed the abnormality and ordered Sevan not to approach her again.

However, this attitude became an opportunity for the three of them to notice her own changes. Together, they inquired about the genealogy of Adelaide Lacks and the ancient records left by the parish in the town, and finally determined Adelaide's ancestors identity.

During the Great Stink Incident, her ancestors migrated here, threatening the local clergy to back down by connecting their own destiny to the local water source, and obtained the right to settle here. After that, they combined with the locals and founded the Lax family.

The passage of time later dispelled all vigilance, and at the same time, the departure of the dark moon led to fewer and fewer women born with awakened blood, which eventually led to their complete forgetting of the deeds of their ancestors. The change of personnel in the local church also made this matter gradually become an issue. secret.

It wasn't until this year that the three of them dug out this secret from the cracks in history.

Because Adelaide has no further mutations, they unanimously decided to keep it a secret and let her live the life of an ordinary person.

In September, a fast horse came from Sasha City.

The big church began to ask the subordinate dioceses to investigate and report on the dark descendants. Sevan knew the news, so he took advantage of his help in the church to destroy the records about the Lax family in the document room, and contacted Adlai Germany agreed to leave Rewo at the end of the year.

In October, people from the church and soldiers from the army came to Ghevaux, and this operation came sooner than they had imagined.

Rewo's priests are all locals, and they can't be cruel to fellow villagers inspired by the dark moon, while priests from the city don't have such scruples.They blocked the roads and locked the ships. Those "patients" who were obviously alienated were recognized at a glance, and they were lured into their carriages by the priests. They didn't know what the consequences would be.

Adelaide was almost recognized, but Priest Louis stepped forward to vouch for her and thus survived.

But this is a deal, and the price is that Sevan must become a black friars, and Adelaide must leave Revo.

Sevan accepted the arrangement.

By the river at night, they made their last date.

Unfortunately, Danny was walking in the woods at the time, and accidentally bumped into them, and also discovered the relationship between them that had been hidden from him for a long time.He suddenly flew into a rage and quarreled with them because of this distrust.

Then a monster rushed out of the woods and caught Adelaide and Sewan together
"Wait a moment."

Clayton interrupted her again with a strange face: "I remember you said Danny killed you."

The Water Fairy nodded slightly at him, her algae-like dark green hair rippling in the water with her movements.

"That's for later, now please hear me out."
