"Viannis! Coyote's family!
Viennese! Chimpanzee family!
Our King has two faces.
Our King is not what he seems.
He married his sister, made the poor girl cry to death, and exiled his own brother.
Is this what a king should do?
Is this what a king should do?
The ruins of Matim still curse their destruction. The bubble of Kekmila's extravagant desire burst into laughter.
Viennese! Dirty blood!
Their children will follow their path.
There are two things that will never end in this land: disaster, and song.
Two things will echo over Vicardo: shouts, and songs.
Two things will be the end of Viennis: Chaos, and song.
Two things will protect our kingdom: blood, and song. "

Breeze was like a solid spindle, falling straight down, followed by two ribbon-like spider webs - the energy emanating from them was something Nese didn't understand. Tarostos slipped to the end of one of the spider webs in the blink of an eye, hung on it effortlessly, and grabbed Blazer's head with both hands.
Nese fired the air blade again. It was just proven that this elemental spell is effective against those energy spider webs.
The bad thing is that he's not very good at elemental spells.
A gap was made in the spider web, but it was not broken. Tarostos easily grabbed Blaize's front - the girl's lips moved slightly, as if she was saying something to him. But the words were quickly interrupted. She snorted and turned her head.
Where the cobwebs were broken, a fire broke out and began to spread. Tarostos stared at that place and only bent the ring finger of his right hand. Another spider web silently moved sideways and covered the place where the fire was. The flames were extinguished easily.
However, Blaize was also thrown away from her hands. There was an agile figure who just jumped over the wall and has now landed on the ground——
Winnie held the boy in one hand and used the other hand to peel off the cobwebs stuck to his body two or three times.
She picked up Breeze, who was slightly paralyzed, and signaled to Nese:
"promise."
Nese paused and took the boy. The webs and webs were pure energy - he was sure the hall in his physical vision was empty. "Can you see the energy?"
"Can't see. So what?"
Winnie took out a grass-scented ointment from somewhere and began to wipe her hands. She raised her gray-green eyes towards Tarostos:
"Why don't you just kill him? Or do you just want to castrate him?" The rude language immediately caused a burst of hissing from Blazer.
Tarostos looked at the half-elf blankly. Her back was stuck to the spider web, and her thin body swayed slowly in the air, like a fresh corpse on the gallows under the setting sun.
Is she afraid of Winnie? Nese thought back to Wei Ni's last words. After being able to directly observe and mobilize energy, he can accurately make judgments on how to cast spells, and he does not have to follow human rules. There is no need for him. Those primitive means and innate intuition are too crude, and he should abandon them decisively.
But Wei Ni is too outstanding at this point. And she's full of confidence.
Maybe sometimes the old way is right…
Didn't think much about it. After hearing those words, Blaize in his hand twisted crazily with all his strength, and was now kicking his knee. Nese put her hand on the boy's throat, removing the cobwebs from his throat and allowing his vocal cords to return to normal.
The heir to power in Vidoka was so choked up that he shouted at Tarostos as soon as he regained his voice:
"I won't marry you when I grow up! I don't know you in the first place! Witch! I want you to..."
Nesai frowned and silenced his voice again. He had always thought about Vicardo's secret rumors, the gossip floating in the alleys of the city at midnight - he scorned these things and had no intention of paying attention to them. But they suddenly seemed important to the current situation.
"I probably understand." He sighed and said to Tarostos: "I understand what those bad memories are. No offense intended. When did this tradition start?"
Tarostos looked at him with a crooked face, showing an obvious expression for the first time:
Suspect.
"Tell me about it. It might be useful. No one cares about what is happening to Vicardo anyway. We can talk about the terms." Winnie said firmly as usual. Despite this, there was very little sarcasm in her tone, and it even seemed a little human, which is rare.
When did it change?
Tarostos turned his eyes and looked at the bounty hunter. The true heir to the secret law now looks very terrifying, with markings all over her face, spider threads made of energy bursting out of her back, and yellowing steam rising from her hair.
She also "decorated" this hall in a terrifying way.
But Nese suddenly realized that none of these Winnies could see. All she saw was a sad, angry, cursed little girl.
"Your mother is also your aunt, right?" Winnie added, "For humans, this is really bad."
Tarostos's face contorted. "This is a secret..." she said carefully.
"Secret method." Nese continued:
"Vicardo separates the two powers. The Viannis family has been blessed by the head of the twelve gods. Two natural heirs will be born among the crown princes. One will inherit the imperial power and the other will inherit the secret treasure. But this generation of kings has It unifies - that is your Father.
Some people doubted that he used any special means. But some also claim that since the king's only sibling, a princess, died young. He is considered an only child, so it is normal for both powers and abilities to be inherited from him.
His later wife was the daughter of a mysterious duke - no one knows where he found her.
Now we know. She is the princess and the heir to the secret. She has a second name, a second identity. "
Tarostos took a deep, slow breath.
"But the second identity also came to an end soon. I hope she died of natural causes." Although it is unlikely. Nesai looked at her, "The king usurped her ability through a marriage-related contract - this is a kind of forbidden art, and few people know about it. He should have spent a lot of effort to find and learn it."
"The most terrible thing is not this." Tarostos did not speak, so he continued:
"The scariest thing is that this is just the beginning. Your father has tasted the sweetness of this method and wants to continue it. It will even become more complicated and elaborate.
After Blaize was found to be suitable as the heir to the imperial power, everything was arranged, just waiting for the birth of the secret heir. The moment you were born and discovered to be the natural heir to the secrets, your destiny was already planned. "
