Darkening Guardian Knight

However, Carter couldn't hear this, and even if he heard it, he probably wouldn't obey his eldest lady's order.

Knights exist to protect their masters, and real knights can sacrifice everything, including their lives, to protect their masters.

The knights may also disobey the master's order, but it is for the protection of the master after all, without any selfishness.

As a knight, Carter is not orthodox and has not been officially authorized, but his heart is definitely a true knight's heart!

Now he really wants to sacrifice his life to protect Jessica!

The magic scroll that can create a compressed storm is irreversible once it is activated. Carter hugged the assassin like an octopus, making it impossible for both of them to escape.

Geese is directing the effective forces of the Holt family to evacuate here.

Because the magic of compressing the storm is very powerful, it can be seen from its seven levels that it must be extraordinary.

Although it is said to be compression magic, the coverage area is supposed to be small.But after all, it is a seventh-level magic. If it is activated, it should be able to level everything within a radius of five meters around it.

The preparation time for magic is not long, just less than five seconds.

In the past five seconds, the assassin stabbed Carter countless times, but Carter did not let go. He held on to the assassin tightly and did not let go until the last moment.

The magic scroll has no emotion, no thinking, it can only be activated rigidly, and then explode rigidly, covering and destroying everything within the casting range.

At this time, in Carter's left hand, the magic scroll was shining white, and there was an aura of danger and death permeating it, obviously the final moment was approaching.

Five seconds are up!Magic started!

Without any accident, a loud "boom" came as expected.

It turned out that in the area where Carter and the assassin were located, a soaring wind column rose up to the sky, a full [-] meters high, and the wind column pierced through the sky, forming a domineering vision.

But Ghis knew that within this astonishing vision was a gale that could tear everything apart, and an even worse and more destructive compression gale.

Even if he stood a hundred meters away from the magic center, he could clearly feel the howling strong wind there.

He couldn't imagine the destructive power of a storm in the middle of magic.

But as far as he was concerned, it was impossible for any creature to survive in the magic of this violent wind.

The assassin lost his voice in the distorted scream, and Carter, who was hugging the assassin, also disappeared after a muffled grunt.

Where the wind column raged, there was only an empty rubble and an extremely deep pit, which proved the tragic battle.

"No! Don't!!" Jessica witnessed this scene from the bell tower a little far away. The pillar of the storm stung her eyes, making her distraught, and screams resounded through the sky.

She could feel the power of the storm from such a distance, and Carter's fate in the center of the storm can be imagined.

Her tears were almost dry, and her big, beautiful blue eyes were dimmed, without any bright color.

She still wanted to cry, to scream, but in the end she didn't say anything.Because even if she said it, no one could hear it.

The Lavinas family is gone, and Carter has become her everything, but now Carter has left her too.

She had nothing and lost everything.

Being hung on the high bell tower, Jessica felt deeply powerless and sad.She has always been a pampered girl, protected by others.

But being loved and protected makes the girl powerless.When her guardian is fighting, she can only watch silently, unable to participate in the battle.

Not long ago, she just swore to Carter that she would grow up and become stronger, but in a blink of an eye, things changed, and her knight was no longer, and she left herself forever.

There was sadness and remorse in the girl's heart, but she pursed her lips to keep herself from crying out.

She has decided once again to grow up and protect what she wants to protect.Can't let the tribe, let Carter's efforts go to waste!

Sadness and remorse should be buried in her heart, she must mature quickly.The girl thinks so.

12-year-old Miss Lavinas grew up overnight and became mature.And that night, she lost her knight, her best friend, her brother, her spiritual pillar...

Jessica thought sadly, maybe this is the price of so-called growth.

No.30 Aftermath (End)

The Holt family has survived the most horrific disaster it has ever encountered.

And it was a young knight from the Lavinas family of the Principality of Doveralter who helped the Holt family survive the catastrophe.

Three days have passed since that day, and there are still different opinions about the young knight's age and the guards in the Holt family.But there was no doubt that the young knight was very young and powerful.

In the courtyard, the servants were discussing this matter, which was in full swing.

One person said: "It is said that the boy is only fifteen or sixteen years old. I saw it with my own eyes. His face is so handsome."

"Well, I saw it too. He easily repelled the attacking assassins that night, and he completely blocked the assassins' combo attacks with his knight sword skills. That's at least a sixth-level low-level cultivation!" Another person also sighed. .

"Ah! He is so amazingly talented, his achievements can be compared with the kingdom's elite!"

At this time, another voice sounded, but it was sneering: "So what, now that person has become a dead ghost, no matter how talented he is, what's the use?"

The servants recognized that this man was a celebrity around the son of the Holt family owner, and they didn't dare to confront the Holt family's young and old, so they kept their voices silent.

When the incident happened, Mr. Holt was sent to seek refuge by a group of guards. When he came back, he found that his family was safe and sound, and learned that a kid from a foreign race had saved his family. He was very upset about this.

So even his cronies didn't care about the young knight.

"What kind of young knight, didn't he die in the end? If you want me to say, he is not as good as our young master! Our young master is full of heroism, a hundred times stronger than that dead man!"

The celebrity next to Young Master Holt became more and more complacent as he talked, and he seemed to be in high spirits.

"Really?" However, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him, "You actually said that to Brother Carter... You don't want to live, do you?"

The voice was very clear and pleasant, but it had a bone-piercing chill that made people break out in a cold sweat unconsciously.

All the servants looked towards the direction of the sound, and there was a girl with long pale blond hair walking towards here.

The girl is the master of the young knight and the eldest lady of the former Ravinas family, beautiful and noble.

It's just that this girl is too cold, she speaks with a chill, there is no smile on her small face, and her words and deeds are completely inconsistent with her age.

But it's no wonder, after all, her knight died to save her, so she must not be in a good mood, and her mind has improved through this.

"No, how could it be... just now I made a slip of the tongue and said the wrong thing..." Seeing the girl, the man immediately grabbed the ground with his head and begged for mercy, "Miss, just please forgive me!"

But the little girl with blond hair didn't appreciate it. Facing the man's begging for mercy, she just smiled coldly: "It's wrong, isn't it? Then you just say here, "Master Holt is mentally disabled, it's Holt Family Stain" Check it out! "

"This, this is too much!" The man hesitated and did not follow the girl's words.

"Is it too much? Anyway, it's just a quick word of mouth. There is nothing too much." The girl sneered, she had already seen through the true colors of these people, they were nothing more than stalking villains, nothing more than fluff.

"But Young Master is my master, how can you let me slander him? I won't do it!" The man thought for a while, but decided on his position. He thought to himself that Young Master Holt is his family after all, and the girl in front of him is an outsider after all. Her power should not last long, and she will be knocked down by the young master one day.

"Really?" The girl was not surprised by his answer, she turned around, and said lightly to the air, "Drag him out, expel him from the Holt family, and exile him for hundreds of miles."

As soon as the girl finished speaking, a few figures suddenly appeared behind her, ignoring the shouting of that person, and directly dragged away the red man next to Holt, and disappeared at the gate of Holt's mansion.

All bystanders knew that this was the girl's prestige, and it was also a warning to Mr. Holt, telling him not to provoke him.

The girl was Jessica, of course, but after Carter was no longer by her side, she was determined to change, and it had already paid off.

Now, her judgment and insight are not comparable to before, and her personality has changed drastically, as if she has been completely reborn.

In the past, she would not be so ruthless, nor would she be so courageous, and would dare to challenge the young master of the Holt family as soon as she came to the Holt family.

Of course, there is a reason why Jessica and Holt are fighting against each other——

After all, the knight's death was rewarded in the end, and the Patriarch and Veteran of the Holt family all escaped death.

After learning that the young knight died resolutely to protect Jessica, Halak expressed deep regret and admiration from the bottom of his heart.

After all, not everyone has the consciousness of not fearing death.

Carter had made an agreement with Harak before the accident. Now that the young knight died, the old man did not intend to violate that agreement. This was his pride as a senior magician and his respect for the young knight.

As the patriarch of the family, Halak announced to the entire family that Jessica will live in the Holt family in the future, and her status is equal to that of Holt.

Geese has no objection to this matter, he has also witnessed the miracle created by the boy, recognized the boy's efforts, and is willing to continue to protect his eldest lady for the boy.

He even donated dozens of his personal soldiers to Jessica, each of whom was a fourth-level warrior.

As long as anyone in the Holt family has witnessed the demeanor of the mysterious black-haired young knight, they will not object to Harak's decision. Of course, it is useless for most of them to object.

But there is still a person who disagrees in the whole family, and he is the eldest son of the Holt family-Evan Holt.

Evan was not convinced. Originally, he was the only heir of the Holt family, so he could do whatever he wanted.But now there is a girl who can have the same status as him, why?

With her knights fighting and dying to save the Holts?

It's not that the Holt family begged him to die, is it worth it?Besides, that guy is dead, so he doesn't care what his master does.

It's just that Halak and Geese, who are the elders of the family and the head of the family respectively, are arbitrary and suppress all voices of opposition. Naturally, Holt's opposition has no effect.

As a result, Jessica gained the same status as Holt in the Holt family, and possessed a position of power that could challenge him.

Although if she could choose, she would definitely choose to let Carter return to her, continue to accompany her, and be her own knight.

But no, fate did not give her a chance to choose, she could only watch Carter pass away, unable to save.

Now that the matter has come to this point, Jessica can no longer escape, and can no longer be naive. She must face up to this reality, let herself live well, and not waste Carter's efforts.

Jessica will never forget that in the not-too-distant Principality of Doverville, she still has blood and blood to avenge.

Even for revenge, she needs to rely on the strength of the Holt family.With power no less than Holt's youngest Evan, there must be a fight between her and Evan, and the winner will be able to enjoy the highest power of the Holt family.

And Jessica is determined to win this battle, and she has a winning plan in her mind.

……

A week later, Keith and Halak stood in the restored conference room, deep in thought.

The power struggle between Jessica and Evan was facilitated by them alone, and they knew it well.However, they did not expect that this struggle for power would end in such a unilateral crushing posture.

"Evan is still too immature...We haven't educated him well." Hallak sighed as he flipped through the materials in his hand.

Jisi also shook his head and said, his eyes were full of disappointment: "My son is so worthless, he was betrayed by a 12-year-old girl without knowing it... I didn't teach him well, so that he didn't even have the ability to read people's hearts."

Harak waved his hand and said, "It's one thing that he doesn't know enough about learning, and another thing is that the girl from the Lavinas family is too powerful and intelligent."

"Well, that's right. The death of the young knight brought her a great blow, but at the same time stimulated her potential and made her mature."

Geese nodded, agreeing with his uncle's statement, but he still frowned, "However, Jessica is a girl, and even a foreigner, not suitable to be the head of the house... About this..."

"Well, although emotionally speaking, I also want Evan to inherit your position. But you also know that he really can't help him up."

Harak sighed again, and said, "For the current Holt family, Jessica is the best choice. Beauty and wisdom are equally important, she is young, and her mind is superhuman.

Her background is not a problem, because her family was destroyed, she was already homeless.Now that she is dependent on others, if she still wants to gain strength, she must pay the price. "

"Uncle, what do you mean?"

"Let her change her surname to Holt. We will make her the heir of the family and the candidate for the head of the family."

"This..." Gies was stunned, and then said, "This is indeed a solution, but will Jessica agree?"

The surname is the glory of the family. If you change your surname, you can only prove Jessica's loyalty to the family by making an oath to the family ancestors.

After changing her surname, even if Jessica wants to take revenge, she won't do anything detrimental to the family.

But changing one's surname is not a trivial matter. In normal times, it is a matter of treason, just like believers betraying their own beliefs. In this world where the teachings of the Holy See spread throughout the continent, betrayal is the most shameful act.

Jessica, who was born into a family of knights, should naturally be deeply influenced by the teachings of the Holy See. Will she agree to change her surname?Keith thought so.

"She will." Hallak said decisively, "She is no longer who she used to be. For revenge, she has recognized the reality."

"You really think highly of her, Uncle." Keith said helplessly. At this point, he has nothing to say against it.

Everything is for the family. If his child is not the best candidate, he will not be able to take the position and be the head of the family.

However, it is rare to introduce outsiders like this.

If Jessica hadn't really cared about Geese, she wouldn't have agreed.

"Well, do I have a high opinion of Jessica?" Hallak chuckled, "I have a higher opinion of her knights! But Jessica is only twelve, and she still has time to develop."

Geese was speechless, the girl's knight was a guy who made him speechless, but unfortunately the man was dead, his body was blown into ashes, and he disappeared.Otherwise, in time, he will definitely accomplish a lot, and his name will go down in history.

"What would happen if he was still alive?" Halak also sighed, feeling very complicated.

……

At this time, the girl with light blond hair was leaning on a small stone tablet, as if taking a nap.Surrounded by gardens, it was very peaceful. The girl's light golden long hair blended with the sunlight, shining with extreme beauty.

However, there are crystal tears in the corners of the girl's eyes, turning this beauty into sadness, and the tranquility into death.

The emotion of longing is only revealed at this time, and the tears of sadness overflow only for him.

The girl was crying, stroking the stone tablet with her small hands, and her fingertips walked in the grooves of the stone tablet.
