Farasi knelt down in front of the chair with a face full of joy, and leaned her head on the other person's thigh. The middle-aged man sitting on the chair lovingly stroked Farasi's soft and smooth black hair, and murmured to himself: "Fani, I never thought I would see you again." This middle-aged man is Luke, who has been in a coma for many years. During the battle in the palace, Catherine used a secret method to forcefully separate his soul from his body, and then But instead of directly killing him, he imprisoned him with a soul jar by some mysterious means.
Later, under Ghalib's persuasion, Catherine returned the soul jar to Faras, and finally the soul that had left the body for many years returned to Luke's body. Due to years of bedridden, Luke's body deteriorated rapidly. Although he woke up again However, both legs were disabled. Fortunately, after Red and others used light magic to treat him repeatedly, Luke was able to live like an ordinary person. However, there was nothing that could be done about his paralyzed lower body.
Despite this, Luke still felt like he was reborn in another life, and during his recovery, Ryan and Faras were almost always by his side. Together with Ryan's parents and his children who lived in the imperial capital, However, he enjoyed a period of family happiness. Luke, who had experienced a great change in his life, no longer had any desire for power in his heart. Anyway, his eldest son-in-law took charge of the military power of the imperial capital, while his younger children became the chief consuls of the imperial capital. , even if he did it himself, it would be nothing more than that, so why waste his precious time on those meaningless intrigues
"Father, the weather outside is nice, let's go out for a walk." Faras whispered to Luke,
"Yeah, that's fine." Luke agreed naturally. Without him having to say anything, the maid next to him immediately moved over a chair engraved with various magic carvings, and then helped Luke sit on it. Luke used Touching the exquisite carvings on the armrests of the chair, he couldn't help but sigh: "Unexpectedly, Ryan was just a magician with some potential at the beginning. In just a few years, he turned out to be one of the few great men in mankind. A mage, not only that, but his enchanting skills have also improved very quickly. This is the first time I have heard of such a magic item."
After hearing her father praise her husband, Faras showed an expression of admiration on her face. The chair Luke is sitting on was designed and supervised by Ryan himself, and its biggest purpose is to provide support for Luke, who is half-paralyzed. To use it instead, to put it simply, this is a large magic item that combines golem manufacturing technology. There is a wind magic circle under the chair that can make the chair float in the air on the basis of consuming magic cores, and then sit on it. Luke can control the direction of the chair as long as he holds the handle of the chair firmly. Although this thing consumes a lot of magic core, with Farasi's wealth, he doesn't care about this small shortcoming. ,
Luke gently touched the armrests of the chair a few times and gave the order: "Get up." In the sound of Luke's order, the wooden chair immediately levitated into the air, and then Luke said: "Move forward." ." So the whole chair dragged Luke and slowly floated towards the door. Luke let go of the armrest, so that no matter what he said, he wouldn't have to affect this magic seat. He smiled at Faras, who was walking beside him, said, "I heard from Ryan that the inspiration for this thing came from making golems."
"Yes." Of course, Faras knew the situation very well, so she explained to her father: "Actually, this chair is a different kind of golem. It obeys the owner's instructions just like the golem, but father, you don't Mana, so Ryan improved some ways to use it, and it will only execute the orders you give after grabbing the armrest."
"Okay, okay." Luke couldn't help but praise Ryan a few more times. His two daughters have found a very good home. Both Orlando and Ryan are impeccable, but the only shortcoming is that the two The daughter actually has no children yet. If there is a next generation, then Luke will not be too lonely every day.
"Oh, by the way, why didn't Ryan come today?" Luke and Faras "walked side by side." They planned to go to the back garden of Faras' mansion. Luke asked casually while walking on the road,
"Lian, he has some things to do, and his brother-in-law has also passed by." Faras explained in a low voice,
Just when Luke and Faras were talking about Ryan, Ryan was standing outside the gate of the palace prison with Orlando and Red. Ryan came here today to do something for Catherine. Orlando would definitely not agree to it. , but after Catherine returned Luke's soul, Orlando and the others also had some forgiving thoughts towards the former queen who had deliberately planned to split the imperial capital. Coupled with the dual faces of Ghalib and Ryan, they finally agreed to stay.
Under the leadership of Orlando, Ryan and dozens of people walked towards the depths of the Royal Prison. As a confidential place, it was naturally heavily guarded. Almost every few dozen steps, there were sentries stopping to check the documents of Orlando and others. Although Orlando's identity was well known throughout the imperial capital, but the guards still checked very carefully before letting him go. Orlando walked for almost an hour and came to a strange building, where they experienced the most stringent experience. After checking, we entered the building.
The building does not occupy a very large area. After Ryan entered, he saw a dark crypt at a glance. Except for the three Orlandos, other followers were not allowed to enter this building, so Ryan and the others had only Accompanied by a warden from the Royal Prison, the four people stood in the rusty elevator and watched as the guard next to them turned the cable car hard and slowly lowered them deep into the ground. Ryan's ears Listening to the bitter friction sound of the elevator noose, he knew in his heart that few people would come here. At this time, Orlando's voice whispered in his ears: "The prisoners deep in this crypt are all heavy-duty prisoners who have been sentenced to life imprisonment. It will take a few months for the top to send some food and clean water down. If the Royal Prison is attacked, the guards below can directly execute the prisoners held here when they judge that the prison has been captured."
Ryan nodded, but didn't say much, just a little melancholy. Now he finally understood why Catherine made this request. I believe she definitely knew the environment here. The prisoners imprisoned here would never see the sun for their entire lives. He can't hear voices other than his own. In such a bad situation, ordinary people are afraid that they will go crazy in a few years. They just don't know what is happening to the person Catherine mentioned. If he dies, If it were lost, it would be hard to explain to Catherine.
After walking through several kilometers of long corridors, Orlando, Ryan and Red finally arrived at their destination. A warden stationed deep underground took out the key from his arms and inserted it into the thick In the cell door, he then turned sideways and asked the warden who accompanied Orlando and the others to insert his key into another section of the cell door. Then the two people squeezed together and turned the key hard. Suddenly the cell door made a muffled sound, and the sound of mechanical rotation came from the stone wall next to it.
About thirty seconds later, the thick cell door suddenly opened a gap toward the outside. The two wardens pulled the door hard, hoping to open it, but they didn't know whether it was because the door was too heavy or because it was too heavy. The wardens' bodies were squeezed together and it was difficult to exert force. Their faces were reddened, but the cell door did not move at all, so Orlando asked them to step back, and he took action himself, and saw a holy light flashing from Orlando's body. Coming out, the thick cell door was finally reluctantly opened to create a passage for one person to enter and exit.
"Let me go in." Ryan said,
Orlando and Red actually didn't want to see the person imprisoned inside, but according to the laws of the empire, prisoners imprisoned here for life must be pardoned by the three parties of the Fernando Royal Family, the Royal Knights, and the Church of Light. Only then could they be released, so they would come with Ryan. Of course, if this matter was not caused by Ryan going out to plead, then at most it would be enough to send an assistant. There is no need for the head of the Royal Knights and the Archbishop of the Church of Light to personally accompany,
After crossing the thick door, Ryan walked several dozen meters before entering a small cell about ten square meters. The target of Ryan's trip was sitting quietly in the center of the cell, but her expression Although he was very calm, when Ryan, who had released the "illumination technique", entered the dark cell, the man's eyes could not help but blink rapidly. Fortunately, Ryan's magic was very gentle, so it did not hurt him. If the other person's eyes were lit with dazzling torches, it would be possible for that person to be blinded on the spot.
"Christina, are you... okay?" Ryan glanced at the other party silently. He believed that the other party must have recognized him. Thinking about it, Ryan himself was personally involved in sending her here, so after seeing When he saw the extremely pale face opposite him, Ryan still felt a little regretful in his heart, but he would not regret it. After all, if she hadn't bumped into her head-on, she wouldn't have had such a tragic ending today.
"It's very good. It's very quiet here and allows me to think about a lot of things." Sitting in the prison was the female knight Christina who had fought with Ryan in the Royal Athletic Competition. When Ryan returned to the imperial capital to expose Catherine's conspiracy, , this female knight who was ordered to protect Catherine violated the creed of the Holy Knight in a moment of impulse, and was found to have been corrupted by the temptation of the devil. She must be sentenced to death. Orlando did not have the heart to kill his subordinates, so he instead She is imprisoned here for life,
"Put it on and follow me." Ryan took out a pair of exquisite magic masks from his arms and threw it to Christina. With the past of this female knight, she must have a new identity if she wants to start over. She will probably have to hide behind this mask for the rest of her life, but no matter what, it is better than being imprisoned in this dark place. In order to prevent Christina from having any resistance or random thoughts, Ryan simply made it clear: "Catherine asked me to do her a favor, so here I am."
