After putting on her pajamas again, Liya curled up on the bed and carefully wrapped herself in the quilt.
He gently covered his face with one hand, his whole head buried in the thick quilt, and his cheeks were stained with a faint blush.
On one side of the room is a huge glass window.
The delicate curtains drape gently, subtly blocking the light from the outside world and bringing a quiet and tranquil atmosphere to the room.
When you enter the room through the door, you can see a soft sofa on the left side.
Victor sat on the sofa and leaned lazily on its back.
The black windbreaker fell to the ground casually, and his eyes were staring deeply at Liya, whose face was buried in the quilt.
Liya slowly raised her head, and through her fingers, the shy blush became more obvious on her cheeks.
Victor looked at her and was about to open his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by a calm voice:
"Don't speak yet."
Victor decisively shut his mouth and became a quiet listener.
Liya still covered her face and remained silent.
His eyes fell dullly on a corner of the room, turning a blind eye to Victor.
There is a lot I want to say, but nothing comes out.
I closed my eyes, but my mind went blank and I couldn't concentrate.
Yes, think about it, how many assets there are in Cravenna territory...
No, not at all. My mind is in a mess and I can't think of anything.
The scene where Victor suddenly appeared behind her just now was as deep in her memory as a brand.
No matter what she thought about, those intermittent fragments would always pop up.
She wondered if Victor's appearance was too much of a coincidence.
Why did Victor appear just when she was changing clothes?
The more Liya thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became.
And she also remembered Victor's explanation at the beginning:
"So you want to tell me that a high-level mage who can teleport was actually swallowed by a treasure chest, and then happened to appear in the scene where my sister was changing clothes, right?"
Victor nodded calmly.
Liya took a deep breath, raised her head, and stared blankly at the ceiling.
After noticing Victor, the first thing she did was not yell.
She was even thinking about the other person.
If the news about Victor peeping on his sister changing clothes spreads.
What a serious impact it would have on the reputation of Victor and the entire Cravenna family.
Therefore, Liya wisely chose to remain silent.
In the end, reason prevailed over instinct.
But as she calmed down, shame began to creep in.
She finally realized the fact that she had been seen out.
And this person is still her brother.
Victor Cravener.
The original sanity is gradually crumbling, right now.
Shame is slowly taking over again.
The Craveners' tutoring was very strict, especially for the education between men and women.
Since she was a child, her father and servants have constantly reminded and educated her.
Keep an appropriate distance from the opposite sex, even close family members.
Even though Liya always pestered Victor and called him "brother, brother" when she was a child, she always kept the family's educational principles in mind.
It's impossible for her to take a bath or sleep in the same bed with her brother since she was a child.
Under the influence of long-term education, 'You can only have no reservations with your future lover' is a concept that has been instilled in Liya's mind since she was a child.
Although she has never met anyone who can make her heart beat since she was a child.
After all, there is an overly outstanding brother there, making it even more difficult for people of the same age to catch her eye.
But now, her idea began to collapse.
Just like the foundation of a tall building was dismantled by an earthquake, countless pieces of rubble and rocks fell to the ground, raising dust that swept thousands of feet.
After all, things have happened. Liya, who originally had no intention of getting married, can no longer get married now.
In every sense.
"Haha...haha."
Liya couldn't accept being looked down upon by her brother in such a dramatic way.
Even this was her own fault.
Thinking that the treasure chest might be her father's relic, Heernerson moved it to her bedroom.
But who would have thought that Victor would jump out of the treasure chest?
It turns out that this is what Kokot meant when he said, "There is something wrong with the treasure chest."
If I had known this would happen, I should have listened to Kokot and left the box in the living room.
If that doesn't work, you can just leave it outside the mansion.
Emotions surged up and rushed straight into Liya's brain.
Her eyes were hollow and dull, and dry laughter burst from her throat, feeling extremely helpless.
She lowered her head and looked at Victor, her somewhat dull expression even looking like it was gradually breaking down.
"So, why did you come out of that treasure chest?"
"Those are things from father's tomb..."
Victor listened to Liya's question, raised his eyes, and met Liya's somewhat frightening gaze.
He sighed, and a calm voice slowly sounded:
"To confirm something."
"By the way, bring out the things he hid in the tomb."
Liya froze on the bed, the eyes in her empty eyes seemed to have passed through Victor, looking far away.
"Issues?"
Victor looked at Liya, who was full of doubts and stunned, and thought for a moment.
I wanted to give her some excuse, but finally thought about it.
He still planned to tell the truth:
"I'm told that the Cravenna are a cursed family."
"So I asked Hernason to take me to the cemetery."
The final verification result is that what Mike Ream said is indeed true.
Although he failed to find Tisnato's body in the cemetery, there was a road leading to the gate of hell hidden in the tomb.
And that red armor.
General Hellfire belongs to the same system as the four generals of the Starry Empire.
But completely different.
If the Starry Empire is like gods who live high in the sky, they take the initiative to lower the stars to bring blessings to those powerful generals.
Then this Hellfire General is a fallen person who gained strength under the baptism of the underworld.
This Hellfire General is the ancestor of the Cravenna family.
Under the curse of hell, no wizard can emerge from Cravenna's bloodline.
Because there are no mages in the underworld.
These things are very familiar to Victor, who has once passed through the underworld quickly.
He was just curious about how the Mirror Demon knew about this matter.
And...if the previous head of the family, Tisnato, had not passed away, then where was he now?
But these are just some clues of speculation.
Victor's words made Liya feel a little dazed, and her eyes gradually changed from the previous emptiness to gloomy doubts.
But at the same time, she almost forgot the embarrassing incident of being stared at by Victor before.
"...cursed? What do you mean?"
Victor looked at Liya, as if to remind him, and said lightly:
"If you look through the family tree of Cravenna, you will find that none of Cravenna's ancestors is a mage."
Listening to Victor's words, Liya paused.
She did have the Clivenner family tree in her hands.
But she hardly looked at it carefully.
Although priests have only become popular in the past few hundred years.
Because of the establishment of the Mages Council, many mages hidden in the world have appeared in the public eye.
Many people have learned about the profession of mage.
But indeed, it seems that in the Cravenna family, only Victor's generation has a mage.
But what did Victor mean?
An idea flashed in Liya's head, and she seemed to have thought of something.
But she wasn't sure, and she didn't dare to be sure.
But then, Victor's words made her suddenly startled.
"Because it's our family's curse."
Victor stood up slowly, lowered his head, and looked at Liya:
"With Cravenna's bloodline, he is destined to be unable to become a mage."
These words made Liya stay on the bed.
She blinked and looked at Victor blankly.
The originally chaotic brain became even more chaotic.
However, before she could fully react, Victor had already walked to the door.
He didn't turn around, just a plain word rang in Liya's ears.
"Although you brought the box in, I am also at fault."
"When you calm down and think clearly, let's continue chatting."
The pale wind blew slightly, pushing the bedroom door open.
Victor's black windbreaker also blew up.
He walked out with light steps and without making any sound.
The pale wind gradually dissipated, but the end of the breeze seemed to stretch out an invisible arm, gently closing the door.
Liya watched the door close again, but seemed a little at a loss.
There are words stuck in my throat, but I can't speak.
Plop...plop.
Liya slowly placed a hand on her chest, feeling the pulse.
His heart was beating wildly, probably even faster than before.
The brain has become even more chaotic, so chaotic that it cannot process any information.
Victor, what did you just say?
'Developing well? '
No, no, no, why would I think of this.
Feeling a little hot, she reached out and touched her cheek.
It was so hot that I felt like I had a fever.
Oops, I'm blushing so much.
It's so hot, it's still burning.
Is there a mirror? I need a mirror...
Liya lowered her head, touched her hot forehead, and widened her eyes.
Her soft eyes seemed to be dripping with water
She murmured softly:
"Klevenner's bloodline cannot become a mage..."
"Can't become a mage..."
"That……"
In a brain that was so chaotic that it could no longer think about anything, there was only one thing that seemed particularly clear.
"Victor...is a mage."
She raised her head again, looked at the door through which Victor left, and pursed her lips.
The window was blown open by the wind at some point.
A breeze blew past her ears, making her feel slightly cool.
But the beating heart was even louder than the slight whistling of the wind.
Liya breathed in the hot air and let out the troubles in her heart.
But I can no longer hear clearly the three or two moments of restlessness in my heart.
