Darkening Guardian Knight

But this is different from Jessica's natural beauty, and does not have Jessica's inherent charm.
Seeing the girl, Carter couldn't help thinking of Jessica—his eldest—and wondered how she was doing.This is the pain in his heart, and now it is caused by a little girl, which makes him sad and can't help crying.
The girl behind the door saw Carter crying suddenly, and felt pain in her heart for some reason.She didn't want Carter to cry, she didn't think teenagers should cry.So she came out from behind the door and came to Carter's side, trying to comfort him.
Carter saw the girl come out suddenly and walked to his side.Carter felt very strange, for a moment he forgot to wipe away his tears, and just stared straight at the girl.
However, the girl has never been good at words. Although she stood up, facing the handsome young man in front of her, she didn't think of any suitable words for a long time.
On the contrary, it was very nervous to be stared at by the young man.
In a hurry, she finally uttered a sentence, but to her own surprise, the sentence was so coherent.
"Please don't cry anymore, okay? This makes me very nervous!"
The girl said so.
Hearing this, Carter felt a fever on his face.
Thinking of the fact that I burst into tears just now and was pointed out by other girls, I was indeed very rude, so I was a little embarrassed: "Uh, I was really rude just now, I'm sorry..."
"It's...it's okay...I...don't blame you..." The girl was originally introverted, but her impulsive behavior just now surprised her.
Now that the impulsiveness is gone, she has returned to her normal situation, and her speaking voice has become imperceptible.
As a fourth-level martial artist, Carter's hearing is also pretty good.
But even he could barely hear the girl's answer.
To be exact, Carter only heard a faint word, and after a while, he came up with what the girl said just now.
It can be seen how introverted the girl's true character is.
Then, of course, fell into silence.After all, girls are very introverted and don't say much.Carter wanted to say something, but felt unable to speak.
"Sure enough, do you have to start by asking for your name?" Carter thought in his heart, feeling that this was the first step to breaking the silence.
So he turned his eyes to the girl, and just about to speak, he found that the girl had turned around consciously when he saw that he was looking at her. It seemed that he didn't want to talk to Carter at all.
"Ah, can't you talk happily anymore..." Seeing the girl like this, Carter was disappointed.
In this case, he didn't feel that the other party would tell him her name at all, which was really embarrassing now.
"Sure, you must say something!" Carter thought to himself, all eyes were on her, it would be hard not to say something!At this moment, a light flashed in Carter's mind, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.
Maybe... I know the girl's name...
You can start from this point!
Thinking of this, Carter stopped hesitating and said directly, "Uh, little sister...is your name Joey?"
The silence was finally broken.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
"Uh, little sister...is your name Joey?"
Facing the boy's question, the girl showed a very surprised expression, and her voice was not so soft: "How did you know my name? Did your father tell you?"
"Well, it wasn't your father who told me..." Carter laughed, thinking that this was a professor who accidentally revealed the information, and he just remembered the name.
The girl Joey blushed, her eyes avoided Carter's sight, and she muttered, "Ah... Is that so? Then how do you know my name?"
Carter smiled and said without concealment: "I heard it from a man called a professor. He once mentioned you."
However, as soon as this remark came out, the girl Joey's face paled in an instant, and she hurriedly backed up a dozen steps, and hid behind the door again, as if trying to distance herself from Carter.
"Uh... what's wrong? Did I do something?" Carter was stunned, not knowing why the girl suddenly changed her attitude, he didn't quite understand.
"That professor... did you come with him?" Joey poked his head out of the door and asked cautiously, his voice was pitifully low.
But Carter was listening attentively this time, and finally heard the girl's words completely.
Now he has the bottom line in his heart. It turned out that it was not because of himself that he kept her away, but because of the professor...
Although he was curious about what the professor did to attract such disgust from the girl.
But now it is obvious that we have to distance ourselves from that person.
"Not with him, he was locked out by Uncle Joe, and he can't get in." Carter gestured to the girl, resolutely drew a line with a certain professor, and proved that he would never be with that person. .
The girl Joy felt a little relieved when she heard this, and she asked again, but her voice was still weak: "Really? You really have nothing to do with him?"
"Well...it's not that it doesn't matter. He saved me when I was in distress, that's all." Carter thought for a while, and felt that he would be too sorry for the professor if he said that he had nothing to do with the professor.
Moreover, Carter has inherited the chivalry spirit of the Holy Continent, and honesty is a key point in chivalry spirit, even if it is because of this, he cannot lie.
The girl Joey heard Carter's answer, but she didn't hide anymore, and her face improved.She slowly came out from behind the door, returned to Carter's side, and sat next to him again.
"What's your name?" The girl Joey seemed to feel that it was inconvenient not to have a boy's name, so she asked.
"I'm Carter, Carter Ravinas." Carter was a little surprised. He didn't expect the girl to speak up and ask for his name.
But since she asked, of course she would not refuse to answer.
He immediately remembered the girl's dislike for the professor, fearing that this would affect his relationship with the girl, so he asked the girl, "I was brought by the professor, aren't you afraid?"
Joey shook his head, and said in a low and serious voice: "There is no need to be afraid, because Carter is honest and you can confess your relationship with the professor. You should be a good person."
Carter smiled wryly, but he didn't expect that he would be directly defined as a good person just because of this.
But to a certain extent, this can be regarded as gaining the girl's trust.
He thought that since he had become a little familiar with the girl Joy, he might as well ask her why she hated the professor so much, it was also to provoke a conversation.
So he asked Joey, "Why are you so afraid of the professor? What happened?"
"Actually, it's nothing. I also know that Uncle Professor is not a bad person, but I can't get along with his personality."
Joy answered Carter's question succinctly, this time her voice was soft but clear enough that Carter could easily hear her.
Knowing Joey's answer, Carter was also a little relieved.Indeed, with the degree of the professor's disconnection, ordinary people may not be able to bear it. Joey's fear of Professor Carter is also understandable.
Carter smiled and said, "The professor's personality is really weird, but in fact he is easy to get along with, so you don't have to be so afraid. Next time we meet, I hope you can dispel your dislike for him."
"Well, since you said that, I will try my best to get along with him." Joey thought about it, and decided to trust this young man who made her feel kind and gentle, so she nodded slightly and agreed.
At this moment, Joe's voice came from the direction of the kitchen: "Hey, that boy! Your lunch is ready! It will be brought to you in a minute!"
"Oh! Thank you, Uncle Joe!" Carter replied cheerfully, turning his head to face the exit of the kitchen.
And Joey also turned around with Carter, sticking to Carter, looking very intimate.
But Carter didn't pay attention to this, and his gaze was more focused on the direction of the kitchen, because there was an aroma coming from there.
I saw Joe coming out of the kitchen, holding a large tray in his right hand. On the plate were white rice, some sliced meat products, and a bowl of corn soup, all of which exuded a tempting aroma.
Carter's mouth watered when he smelled it, and he couldn't control himself.He hadn't touched food for a long time, and now seeing such delicacies, of course he was salivating.
But Joe just held the tray, but didn't mean to put it down at all.
"Uh...Uncle Joe, who is this?" Carter felt that something was wrong with Joe's expression, and he was sweating coldly with a sense of crisis in his heart.
He noticed that Joe's face had turned black and was full of anger. His hands were bulging with blue veins. The hand holding the tray was shaking, and the utensils on the plate were shaking, as if they might fall at any moment.
This made Carter very worried, afraid that the meal would be ruined.After all, this is his lunch, and it should be his first meal since he came to this continent, although he has not eaten this meal yet.
"I didn't expect...you got to know my daughter so quickly. It's obvious that she is very shy and won't talk to strangers easily.
But you boy became one with her so quickly.Ah yes.Did that professor plan this time, did he send you to pick up my daughter? "
Big Han Joe showed a face like a devil, and his teeth rubbed against each other, making a creaking sound, which was a manifestation of anger.
Carter was surprised to hear the reasons for Joe's anger. He felt embarrassed, and thought that Uncle Joe was really eager to love his daughter.But it is understandable, this is the so-called love woman complex.
Different from Carter's calm analysis, Joy was shy, and a blush climbed up her little face, dyeing her face as cute as an autumn apple.
Although Qiao said in his words that Carter was sent by the professor to pick her up, this made her suspicious and shy.
But the boy named Carter gave her a feeling that she would not deceive her. It was the boy's sincerity and kindness from the heart. reason.
She felt that Carter could be trusted, and if it was him, she could safely confide in him the distress in her heart.
Carter understood that Joe was angry because he and Joey showed some intimacy. He turned his head and wanted Joey to explain a few words to Joe, but found that Joey's face was blushing because of shyness. She thought she said no. Out of words.
Things seem to be getting worse!Carter could feel the startling rage turning to murder in Joe beside him.
This is very bad. After seeing how Joe handled the professor, Carter knew that if this person had the intention to kill someone, then that person would basically end up dead without a place to bury him, and there was almost no possibility of surviving.
"Uh...Uncle Joe, it's not what you think. At least let me explain!" Carter said quickly, intending to explain the situation and prevent Uncle Joe from going berserk.
"Explain? How do you want to explain?" Joe said word by word, the straw hat on his head was swinging, and he might fly away at any time due to Joe's powerful breath.
"This..." Carter seemed to be able to see a raging fire burning behind Joe's figure, and he felt that Joe might not be able to listen to his explanation in this state.
Moreover, it is difficult for Carter to explain this situation clearly. It is really difficult to express this situation in words.
Just when Carter was worried about how to express his innocence, Joe's anger subsided unexpectedly in the next moment.
Joe slammed down the tray in his hand, but instead of facing Carter, it hit the dining table.The dining table is stable and there are no accidents like chipping.
"Ah, I'm really stupid. There's no need to be angry with a dying person. You can't have a future anyway!"
Qiao sighed, "You eat, then get out of here, and don't have any contact with my daughter again!"
"This..." Carter was stunned, surprised by Joe's sudden attitude.
But what he cared more about was what Joe said that he was a dying person, and he knew his own situation—it was indeed dying, with Kuroyuki's curse, he could die at any time.
But he was surprised that Joe saw Hei Xue's curse, and felt that this person might know something, so he wanted to ask in detail.
But just when he was about to speak, the girl Joey asked first: "Dad, what do you mean he is dying? Are you going to kill him?"
Facing Joey, Joe's slightly vicissitudes of face showed gentle emotions, and it was impossible for him not to answer his daughter's question:
"Good girl, it's not that Dad wants to kill that kid, but that he himself has been under a strong curse. It seems that he can prolong his life because of the use of the Divine Stone of Light or some other reason, but it won't last for a month."
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
"!!" Joey was terrified when he heard his father's words.
Because someone who could live in harmony with her is about to die, which is unbelievable and sad.
Carter, on the other hand, showed an unusual calmness. He knew the result a long time ago, but it was the first time he heard the news that he could live for a month.
But he didn't doubt it, because Big Han Qiao was not the kind of person who could lie in front of his daughter casually.
"Is there any way to save it?" Joey asked hurriedly, hoping that Carter could be saved.
But Joe's answer chilled the hearts of both of them: "There is no way, I am not capable enough, and I have more than enough energy to save him."
"How is it possible? Dad, you are obviously a very powerful magician! How can there be things you can't do?"
Joy shouted, in her impression, her father had never let her down, and she felt that this time it must be the same.
However, Joe shook his head and said: "There is really no way. I am indeed a very powerful magician, but I am an earth magician, and the curse magic on him can only be removed by magicians of the holy department. I really have no way.
And besides that, the level of curse magic on him is probably unusual, and your father and I are just magicians who have just entered the ninth level.But the magic on his body makes me feel terrible, I am afraid that the level of the caster is higher than mine..."
When Carter heard that Joe was a ninth-level magician, he was also very surprised.
But when he heard that even a ninth-level magician like Joe was helpless against Hei Xue's curse, he also felt desperate.
Joe said that the magic level of this curse magic is higher than his, which means that the black snow curse magic is at least level nine, and its quality is at least the truth level!Even... Forbidden Curse Level!
This is terrifying. This level of black magic has been rare since ancient times, and Carter, who was exposed to this magic, was lucky enough to carry it home.
Joy was heartbroken, almost crying when she learned that there was no way to save Carter.
But she still didn't give up, feeling that there might still be a chance of life, so she asked Joe again: "Dad, is there really no other way? Will Carter definitely die?"
"I don't know." Seeing his daughter begging him like this, Qiao finally gave no answer that would kill him. He let out a long breath and said, "Although I have a magic cultivation level at the beginning of the ninth level, I don't care about this kind of magic. I don’t know much about things. That guy Daniel might know more about this kind of thing.”
"Hey! Daniel? Uncle Joe, do you mean the professor?" Carter asked in a surprised voice.
"Ah, yes, he specializes in miscellaneous academic stuff. Although I have nothing to do with this, I think he probably has some research on this kind of black magic?"
Joe stretched out his hand to straighten the straw hat on his head, and replied seemingly casually.
He was still angry, and he was able to answer Carter because of Joey's face, and it was already his limit not to embarrass that kid.
Carter didn't care about Joe's attitude. He didn't expect that the professor's middle-aged man who was off-line was actually a knowledgeable person, which surprised him a little.
Joey also looked very surprised. She covered her small face and said, "Dad, that professor... so he is such a powerful person?"
