After entering the territory of the Golden Dragon Clan, I thought I would not be able to run away. The adjutant who was arranged for me by King Andrew, who should be a relative of my relative, the Anfir County Lord, strongly ordered the accompanying magician to unravel the spell. , and then she got into the car and sat next to me.
She said, "Do you know what the purpose of this mission is?"
I squinted at her and smiled bitterly: "I guessed it, it's not a good thing."
She said: "We are going to send relatives. Give the human bride to the dragon."
I was taken aback: "Send a kiss?"
When I was in Vanus, in order to learn more about Frius, I read a lot of books about the dragon family. I know that there are actually traces of the legends that "the dragon likes the daughter of the king/lord" - in the era when the monsters were the most raging, human beings The king offered his children to the dragons to show their respect for protection, and the dragons of status possessed these princesses and princes to assert their authority. However, these human "brides" are more similar to sacrifices. The books only vaguely record that most of them will die miserably on their wedding day or within a few days, but they do not record why they died.
However, with the development of the times, the infestation of monsters is no longer as serious as it was in the past. Humans have also invented more arms, weapons or magic to deal with the demons. The cooperation between humans and dragons has become more equal, and the dragons have also clearly ordered Dragons of various clans are prohibited from accepting such sacrificial "brides".
I raised my own doubts as to why this long-forbidden ritual still exists.
Anfir swept my face lightly, lowered his eyes, and said with a slight sarcasm: "What's so strange about this. The Golden Dragons are powerful, and they have always violated the law. In order to show their special status, they sometimes even blatantly violated the ban and invited members of the Dragons. The king came to watch the ceremony, and the rulers of the dragon race who made the rules in name are helpless, and they don’t want to cause the dissatisfaction of the golden dragon race for the sake of human beings.”
I thought that was the truth, and then asked her who the bride was and why I didn't see it.
Anfir said: "The bride is you."
62.
What a joke I'm talking about, how can I be a bride, and you're more or less the same as a bride.
Anfir told me that the Golden Dragons only care about the purity of the royal blood of the bride, regardless of gender. The last bride who was supposed to be sent was my mother, but she ran away, and the king could only send another county lord from the side. Because the royal bloodline was thin, the Golden Dragons were very dissatisfied with this.
Anfir looked at me and suddenly smiled slightly. She said: "Adam, thank you... If you hadn't suddenly appeared, I would have been chosen to be the bride. That's why Andrew sent me to watch you, because I'm the last person to let you go, if You escaped, and it was me who died."
Her expression became complicated in an instant, guilt, madness mixed with fear. She said, sorry, she was not afraid of death, but the way the human bride died was too tragic.
I asked her how the brides died.
She looked straight at me and said, "I died as a bride. I copulated with the dragon archetype and died."
I didn't say anything, I knew rationally what she said should be true. However, at this moment, another kind of arrogance and self-compassion rose in my heart contradictoryly and strangely, silently slandering that you should not lie to me, that Frius and I have not tried anything, and we are still alive and well.
This uncanny pride is probably the fact that I have a real knowledge that is rarely practiced by others.
I thought about it for a while, and felt that I was probably hopeless. I can think of bad pictures with Frius all day long.
The author has something to say: Girls, you have such big brains!
However, I took a different approach: the little boss was also recognized by another wealthy family and was the orthodox heir of the wealthy family. However, there are top-quality relatives in the family who coveted power and control, and this wealthy family has requested a company under the family industry of the wealthy family's president, so it will push the small boss to marry. According to reliable sources, the family of the marriage partner was of bad character and treated the bride very badly. Those who were sent to marry before all died...
Next, I'm going to go out for three or four days. I can't update it for the time being. I love you (づ￣3￣)づ╭?~
