Shao Ci has been in the lord's mansion for a few days.
After the previous incident, he suddenly became famous, and he was treated very well in the lord's mansion, and everyone he met on the road treated him very respectfully.
Even Julius often came to Shao Ci to ask him some questions, and there was a faint tendency to regard him as a teacher, and he seemed to like him very much...
Shao Ci would not find it troublesome or anything because of this, after all, this is how he can get a more special status here, and it is also easier to investigate.
In this way, after a few days, he has almost grasped the situation here.
The entire Lord's Mansion looked very peaceful, without any problems at all. He also couldn't see what it was that stimulated Julius.
Just when Shao Ci felt that he had come to the wrong place and that what happened was not here, he finally found a gap.
It was when he was resting in the garden of the lord's mansion with nothing to do, when he heard two maids beside him discussing something.
Because of the angle, they couldn't see the existence of Shao Ci, but continued to chat.
"Speaking of which, the child is really pitiful..."
"That's right, he's obviously the lord's child, but now he's gone somewhere. He's still the elder brother of Master Julius."
"After all, that child was born with an ominous prophecy. It's good to be alive now."
After saying these few words, their faces changed as if they realized something, and they turned and left in a hurry.
Shao Ci: "...?!" Huh? Ok? ! There is such a thing? !
But these two people actually talked here, as if they wanted him to hear it on purpose.
The amount of information between these two people is also too large. This kind of thing should not be hidden. After Shao Cilue inquired, he learned that the lady of the lord actually gave birth to a pair of twins.
But because of the prophecy that one of the bloody children will bring disaster, the first born child was sent away.
Although Shao Ci really wanted to say that he was quite innocent when he was sent away, something really went wrong afterwards! What should be said is that these people sent the child away, but the prophecy could not be changed at all...
But in this way, the person who caused the problem later is the child who was sent away? where the hell is he now...
Shao Ci: "..." Wait a minute! No matter how you think about this kind of thing, you don't think he can find out by himself, hey! !
Even if you ask the system, it will consume too much energy! The system probably couldn't find it either.
However, Shao Ci's troubles didn't last long, and he was asked by the lord to talk to him that night.
"I think you have heard what those maids said during the day." The lord's serious face was shrouded in shadow, making Shao Ci feel that he would be silenced in the next moment.
Although it's not impossible for Shao Ci to run away if he really fights, but things will become much more troublesome, so he still wants to avoid such things as much as possible.
Shao Ci hurriedly said, "My lord, I will never tell this matter—"
"No." The lord said, "This matter... I revealed it to you on purpose."
Shao Ci: "..." So those two maids did it on purpose!
"I originally wanted to test your reaction. If you were not surprised at all, things would not be like this..." The lord said: "But your reaction is obviously the first time I heard it, so you can be safe and sound." The thing stays here."
"It's indeed the first time I've heard it." Shao Ci's heart was shocked, as if he had thought of something, he asked, "What's the matter?"
"You have already seen that child." The lord said in a deep voice.
Shao Ci was stunned for a moment before realizing what the lord said, "...wait a minute."
etc? !
He said that he had seen the child, and he must be talking about the lord's first child. Shao Ci remembered that he was in this place, the one who had been with him the longest, and was about the same age as Julius... Isn't that frankly Erek? !
No wonder before he thought how could such a good-looking Erek be reduced to a slum, now that he thinks about it, is it a good thing done by the lord
Although this child was exiled and no longer recognized the identity of the other party, he kept it under his nose, so as not to make the prophecy come true... Maybe he still has a family relationship to some extent, and he couldn't bear to let him have an accident.
And when he came up, he just sent someone else's son of disaster who was born with an ominous prophecy... casually away. No wonder others are coming to test him now. After all, no matter how you look at it, it is full of a feeling of doing things on purpose. If you don't catch him directly, it is because the lord trusts him.
Shao Ci's face turned ashen in an instant, "My lord... Do you mean Erek?"
The lord nodded lightly and sighed again, "It is indeed him."
Shao Ci sighed, "My lord, I promise I didn't do it on purpose, I just want to send that child to another place to see the world..."
Who would have thought that a key character would be sent away so casually! It's impossible for the lord to come here just to have a heart-to-heart talk!
"I believe in you." The lord said coldly again: "However, it is also because of you that the matter has become like this... So, it must be handled by you."
"Then, my lord, what am I going to do?" Shao Ci knew that this was the key point of this conversation, and he definitely couldn't refuse! If you refuse, you may not be able to walk out of this door today.
"Kill him." When the lord said these words, his expression seemed a bit unbearable, but he was relieved.
Even though Shao Ci had guessed it long ago, he was still shocked when he heard this sentence, and said: "... I can, but why didn't you do it before? You have to wait until now."
"It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just that I can't do it." The lord slowly explained the whole story.
It turned out that when Erek was born, he already possessed extremely powerful power, and it exploded in an instant. No one survived the scene except his younger brother Julius, and the lord's wife died at that time of.
Everyone immediately believed the prophecy.
Born with powerful abilities is a good thing for the demons. But he was born with a curse, so of course he couldn't stay in the Lord's Mansion.
But even if he wants to kill Erek directly, the person who does it will be blocked by a force. Erek seems to be protected by the rules of the world. Others can't hurt him at all. If he is not careful It will also be counter-injured.
In the end, he had no choice but to try his best to seal the power in his body and exile him to the slums, which can be regarded as monitoring under his nose.
"Everyone who tried to get close to him failed, and only you succeeded... Only the person he trusts the most can give him a fatal blow." The lord's eyes froze, "So after catching him, it's up to you Let's do it."
Of course Shao Ci had no choice but to agree, but in his heart he still hoped that Erek would simply not come back.
But reason told him that the other party's return was inevitable. It was even really because of him that this place ended up in the end.
—
Inside the slum.
A few punks were leaning against the wall with nothing to do, still cursing, when suddenly they saw a familiar young man walking from the side, and immediately laughed a few times.
"It's you trash again, do you want to come here to seek death?" "It just so happens that I'm in a bad mood recently, so it's not bad to take it out on someone." "No one will come to save you this time!"
But in the next moment, the smiles were fixed on their faces, and the powerful aura from the other party made everyone feel fear in their hearts. A person rushed over in disbelief, and his body was instantly torn into pieces by the space crack that appeared at an unknown time, not even blood was left.
The people in the back were completely stupefied, and the people in the farthest distance wanted to escape, but they bumped into the wall formed by the condensation of darkness.
They knew instantly that they had no way out, and immediately knelt down tremblingly and begged for mercy. Of course, these gangsters living in the slums have no dignity at all, and they can't wait to hug Erek's thigh directly.
"Please, spare our lives!" "We can do whatever we want!"
Erek looked at these people in front of him coldly. If there were not still things for these people to complete, he would have done it directly.
"If you want to save your life, just follow my orders." He said coldly.
"Yes, yes!" These people no longer care about what tasks they will be assigned to, they are willing to do whatever they want as long as they can survive.
And the same scene happened everywhere. Of course, Erek also placed a contract on these people so that they could not violate his orders.
None of the guards noticed these abnormalities found in the city. After all, when everything happened, it could be said that it was already in another closed space.
After being left behind by Shao Ci, Erek awakened the power in his body. It was a very powerful power, something he had dreamed of. Under such power, those who had bullied him were like roadside Ants can generally be trampled to death easily.
Along the way, I don't know how many people who came to arrest him were killed, and Erek also learned about his own life experience.
It turned out that he was not an orphan in a slum with both parents dead, but the son of the lord. With such a noble background, he was thrown in the slum because of a cursed prophecy.
If you were someone else, you might be upset about it. But Erek didn't care so much, what kind of family affection, he didn't expect it at all.
And that prophecy, he felt... might come true. Erek didn't have the slightest memory of this place.
Originally growing up alone in a slum, no one taught him anything, not to mention that here is a demon tribe that preys on the weak, and it is even more impossible for Erek to have any normal thoughts.
But compared to destruction and revenge, he now has more things he wants to do.
He wants to find, his dearest teacher.
—
Recently, some infectious disease suddenly broke out in the territory, and a large number of people were infected. This disease will make the demons lose their strength and weaken quickly, and even die soon. People are panicked for a while.
There are not enough doctors in the territory. Under such circumstances, Shao Ci is of course going out to save people. With his special abilities, these diseases are not a problem at all.
But he always felt that this should not be an ordinary thing... He always felt that someone was scheming secretly, and the people from the lord's side should investigate.
Erek's image in Shao Ci's heart is relatively pure, and he feels that even if he is blackened or something, he can't do such a thing.
Shao Ci: "..." Why do you feel like you will slap yourself in the face after thinking this way! Why are the children he met so sick...
However, Shao Ci still maintained a steady state of mind. After all, he just wanted to know where the lord's real body would be... Now let's watch and eat melons, although it seems that there is no way to get away.
Julius also insisted on pestering Shao Ci to go out together, but he was powerful and would not be easily infected, so the lord could only let him come out.
Of course, the most popular doctor is Shao Ci. After all, his treatment will be effective in minutes, which is different from other doctors who need a period of time.
Moreover, Shao Ci is still good-looking. After the treatment, because of the side effects of the supernatural power, those patients will also have a strong affection for Shao Ci in their hearts.
All of a sudden, Shao Ci had countless younger brothers and sisters in this territory. Every time he went out, it was not like seeing a doctor, but like an idol, surrounded by cheering crowds, and the lord had to send people to maintain order.
"..." Shao Ci fell into silence as he looked at the scene like a big star going out and surrounded by fans, he didn't want to do this either! !
During the treatment in the square, Julius next to him has been helping, more professional than other attendants, feeding Shao Ci some snacks and pouring tea from time to time. Many people thought he was Shao Ci's apprentice or something, and praised him one after another.
If they knew that it was the lord's son who was fighting here, they would probably look pretty good.
After the treatment was almost finished, Shao Ci finally breathed a sigh of relief. Julius, who was next to him, immediately stepped forward to wipe the sweat off his face with a towel, and he immediately smiled friendlyly at the other party.
And all of this fell into the eyes of someone hiding in a remote corner.
Erek couldn't help clenching his hands, looking at the distant scene with a gloomy expression.
There are several people standing respectfully behind them, all dressed gorgeously, with a bit of fear on their faces.
"That person is the lord's son, Master Julius." A person explained tremblingly: "The person next to him is the pharmacist of the lord's mansion..."
"Oh?" Erek's eyes became colder.
Even though he already has everything, do you still want to take away the only thing he has
Looking at the young man who was so close to Shao Ci, Erek felt it was very dazzling. Looking at Shao Ci with a smile on his face, his face became more and more gloomy.
Why did the teacher want to send him away when he was willing to go to the lord's mansion. Is that why you don't like him? Is there such a big gap between him and that guy
They are obviously brothers, aren't they
In that case... as long as he can become that Julius...
