Become a martial girl

Chapter 502 The Beginning of the Cataclysm

"Sister Mengdie! Sister Mengdie! We haven't seen each other for a long time, Nia misses you so much~~~! I thought I would never see you again in this life!"

To be honest, Mengdie never thought that she would see this little girl again in such a short period of time.If it wasn't for Yinyue's sudden catastrophe, she might not return to this country within ten years.

But compared to getting together with Niya, there are other more important things waiting for Mengdie to do.

"Aiya."

Mengdie propped herself up on the table, staring at Aiya who was sitting directly opposite her with cold eyes.The head of the Royal Knights was drinking black tea leisurely at the moment. After hearing Mengdie's voice, he slowly raised his head and smiled.

"You... what's going on?"

The rain outside the window was still rumbling, and with Mengdie's inquiry, a bolt of lightning flashed across the night sky.The blue light instantly drove away the warmth in the room, bringing an inexplicable chill to people.

Aiya slowly drank half of the tea in her hand and put it down.She seemed to think for a while before slowly saying: "Sister Mengdie, I... don't quite understand what you mean. What do you want to say?"

"You have become very strange. You have become too calm, too calm. What is even more strange is that you would accept the job of slaughtering? You used to be a nurse who guarded people's lives, and you were respected by all your partners in the slums. Love. But now, why do you go to command the war?"

Mengdie's question instantly made the room extremely silent.Everyone's eyes were on the faces of Mengdie and Aiya, and Edward and Sasara looked very nervous, for fear that there would be an internal strife here.

"No! Sister Mengdie, actually Sister Aiya..."

"Don't talk, Nia." Mengdie stopped Nia's voice, and continued to look at Aiya calmly, "I want to hear what she says, not for others to tell."

Nia's face swelled, she had to shut up, and stopped talking.

Aiya tapped on the table lightly, her gentle and beautiful eyes kept looking at Mengdie directly opposite.The smile on the corner of her mouth gradually disappeared, and she put on a serious and serious look.

"Would you believe me if I told myself?"

"Aiya, I regard you as a friend and a family member. Therefore, I believe your defense, and I also believe that you must have a reason for doing this. If you say that you have to let someone else do it for you to tell me, then it is you Didn't believe me."

The blue light just now gradually disappeared, and the warm candlelight replaced the control over the house.Under the light of flickering candles, Aiya nodded lightly...

"If I don't do it, the king will order others to do it. Also, the possible damage will be greater and the casualties will be heavier. This...do you believe it?"

At this moment, Mengdie finally breathed a sigh of relief.She believed in Aiya, and also believed in her personality.In fact, there is no need for Sisko to say with great fanfare that Aiya deliberately let go of so many people during the war, and dug out the eyes of soldiers who died on both sides to make up for it. Mengdie also fully believed that Aiya's actions had reduced casualties to lowest.

Just as she said, if she doesn't do it, the old king will definitely send someone else to do it.

"From this point of view, the old king is the crux of the problem." Mengdie folded her arms, leaned on the chair and frowned, "But it's really strange, in just nine months, such a continuous Is it possible for a person with no basic combat experience or knowledge of physical skills to become such a person with overwhelming strength that makes me feel a little terrified?"

Mengdie's question is exactly the question of everyone.Especially Edward, after seeing the change of his father, he has been silent all the time, looking dejected.

"Sasha, Hugh, you two are magicians. And you are very 'special' magicians. I don't know much about 'your' magic. Is there something in magic that can be improved instantly in a short period of time? The method of human strength?"

Xio froze for a moment, then began to touch his lower lip and look up at the sky.Sasara shook her head resolutely, and said: "It's impossible. Magic is not like martial arts, which can be learned through physical exercise. To master magic, you need a lot of knowledge as a basic support. At least on the road In the Will Empire, in order to obtain the qualifications of a magician, one must have a diploma from the Institute of Advanced Research. Just after learning a lot of theoretical knowledge, magic history, application foundation and a large number of mathematical formulas, it is not enough. It can be done in just nine months."

Uh... In other words, to graduate?Wait a minute, in other words... Sasara, who has obtained the qualifications of a junior magician, is actually a graduate student? ? ? ...Well, it's right to think so, Sasara is an elf, and her intelligence is relatively high.And on the other hand, the only two wizards I knew among young people—Hugh, and Coco.They all belong to the level of magic apprentices.It seems that they are not old enough to graduate from graduate school...

Thinking that the magicians are all high-level intellectuals, Mengdie's respect for Sisko and his wife Linda can't help but rise sharply.Mengdie never went to a formal school, and she doesn't have any diploma to speak of.Apart from fighting, she knows very little, and her respect for intellectuals is taken for granted.

"Well...that is to say, it is impossible for the old king to advance by leaps and bounds through magic, right?"

Sasha nodded: "Well. If there is such a method, why do we have to study so hard? I am afraid that except for the Mercury Empire, a country that is influenced by the goddess Harp, it is impossible for people anywhere to suddenly have Powerful magic."

The words of Mengdie and others sounded a little inexplicable to the ears of Sisko and Linda!After the couple glanced at each other, Sisko frowned and asked, "I'm sorry, may I ask... why is this lady and this young man... are 'special' magicians? Moreover, this lady has been a magician since just now. Just wearing a headscarf all the time, are you covering up something?"

Mengdie didn't want to say much about Sasara, after all, it was related to her life.As if to help Mengdie, Xio actually stood up, ran to Sisko and knelt down with a plop, and began to ask some questions about magic.Sisko was so entangled by Hugh that he had no choice but to start talking to him, and put aside the question just now.

"From this point of view, the problem is still not resolved. Since it is impossible to advance by leaps and bounds in strength, at least please explain to me the problem of the old king's character?"

Mengdie scratched her head and glanced at Aiya, as if asking for her opinion.

Aiya spread her hands, the introduction that the head of the Royal Knights gave to Mengdie was surprisingly short!According to her, in the past few months, she has been sent here and there by various orders from the old king, arresting people and putting them in prison.The number of times he could meet the old king directly was very few, let alone give any opinions.

However, another lady sitting in the seat spoke at this moment and began to answer Mengdie's question.

"Your Majesty changed... Thinking about it carefully, it was about seven months ago."

Linda held her big belly, sat on the rocking chair covered with plush cushions, and spoke quietly.As soon as she spoke, Mengdie immediately moved the chair and came to her side, listening with bated breath.

"Seven months ago, His Majesty suddenly began to live in seclusion, and every time I saw it, I could tell that His Majesty became very weird. His behavior seemed very cautious."

"At the beginning, everyone didn't think much of it. At that time, His Majesty had already agreed to abdicate the throne and let His Highness Dika inherit it. Everyone was busy with the ceremony of His Highness Dika's ascension to the throne. To say something that may be a bit ugly... No one has the heart to continue Just worry about what His Majesty is doing and thinking."

The expression on Edward's face dimmed again.He imagined that his father was alone in the palace, but no one cared, no one cared, and he couldn't help but feel like a knife was piercing his heart.

"However, this situation continued until six months ago, when something appeared that reminded us of His Majesty's existence again. In fact, thinking about it now, that incident...may be the terror that hangs over Silver Moon... Prologue."

"The body of a captain of the Imperial Guard was found in His Majesty's bedroom. It was discovered by the maid who was going to help His Majesty wake up in the morning. At that time, the body was not complete, but torn apart, like smashed glass Died in the dormitory. There was blood everywhere, and when everyone started to worry about His Majesty's life, they found His Majesty trembling with blood on his pajamas under the bedding."

"Judging from the situation at the scene, the captain of the imperial guard died in the dormitory, and before he died, he seemed to draw his sword. Who killed the captain of the imperial guard? Why did he appear in the king's bedroom? In addition, will you draw your sword on the charge of treason? Regarding these issues, the real manager began to send people to investigate."

"But the results of the investigation surprised everyone. The doors and windows of that room were all locked from the inside. Except for the captain of the guards and His Majesty, there was no sign of any third party entering or leaving the bedroom that night. Of course , the induction of magic power is also zero, indicating that no one has used magic that night."

"But this is strange. In a closed room, the captain of the imperial guard and His Majesty are alone. Even if you retreat ten thousand steps, the captain is really here to assassinate. However, the soldier who is the captain of the imperial guard On the contrary, the death was extremely miserable, but His Majesty was unscathed. Is this possible for His Majesty who doesn't understand martial arts and magic at all?"

The situation of that night was slowly told through Linda's mouth, and Mengdie began to imagine the situation of two figures coexisting in a closed room.Perhaps, no one will know what happened in the dormitory that night...
