"It's good that you're fine."
Seeing that the chocolate was fine, Jenkins breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and looked around, and saw Miss Capet lying not far away, while the monster with the mosquito face was on his left, slowly waking up.
Jenkins has never been a chivalrous person, and of course he will not wait for the monster to fully recover before continuing the fight. He called out the cane and held the head of the cane with both hands, walked quickly to the side of the monster, stepped on the monster's disgusting head with his right foot, and then thrust the end of the cane into its head with great force.
Even with the power given by strange cursed monsters, such injuries are enough for this powerful monster to die. It’s just that the power of the mystical lock has not been broken. Even if Jenkins is determined to burn the corpse to ashes, it will be resurrected sooner or later, so the pace of exploration must not stop here.
After killing the monster, I had time to check on Miss Capet's situation. She also fell heavily when she landed, but fortunately, she was a healer, and with the help of Jenkins, she quickly recovered.
The other three companions had disappeared, and what the two of them were in was like a living room in a manor. But there is no furniture in this equally huge hall, and there is not even a carpet on the clean floor. Only the fireplace on the wall near the door was burning with red fire, and the blood-red smoke diffused in the room, making this room more like any place Jenkins had experienced in a strange land. red hell.
Without leaving here through the door immediately, when examining the monster's body, the two found a ring on his badly deformed right hand. Because they knew about the Earl Paramount's family before entering the manor, both Jenkins and Miss Capet recognized that it was the engagement ring of Earl Paramount's youngest son.
The engagement rings of this level of aristocrats are all custom-made, and it is impossible to have two identical ones. And considering that this is a male ring, it can basically be confirmed that the monster just now is Little Paramount.
"Although I have long thought that there are no survivors in this manor, it is too cruel to die in this posture."
Miss Capet sighed, and insisted on praying for little Paramount before leaving. The two took the ring away as the only discovery of the current exploration.
After leaving this room, there are intricate and dangerous corridors outside. Jenkins tried to use his eyes to find the aura of the culprit or the other three companions, but he didn't know whether it was because of the special space structure here or the oppressive nature of the mystic, he basically couldn't see anything from a long distance.
"The current situation seems to have turned into our adventure in the mirror world a few months ago."
Miss Capet sighed as she walked, she was walking to the right behind Jenkins, because of the flickering candlelight at the top of the corridor, so the cat on the shoulder of the man in front of her seemed to have disappeared into the shadows.
"But don't say that. If it's really like that adventure in the mirror world, we don't know what strange things we will encounter in the end."
Jenkins reminded nervously, hesitated and asked again:
"Speaking of which, is it convenient to reveal why the church suddenly transferred you to Beldylan? I'm really curious... Of course, it's okay if it's not convenient."
"To be honest, I was also very curious. There was no sign before this, and then I was transferred to Beldyran suddenly. I also asked why, but the nun who was in charge of welcoming me in Beldyran only said Just let me wait in peace."
Miss Capet replied in bewilderment.
Nothing happens to the priesthood of lies, which is the truth. She doesn't know her own background at all now, and naturally, like Jenkins not long ago, she can't guess that it has something to do with Fidetic Tri's throne.
Miss Capet is also a descendant of William. In terms of blood, she and the three Jenkins brothers have the same great-grandfather, which can be regarded as Jenkins' cousin. She also owns one-third of the World Tree seeds, and she has almost the same inheritance rights as Jenkins in terms of lineage.
[Church of All Things and Nature] At such a sensitive time, Miss Capet was suddenly called to Beldyran. There is reason to believe that the church clearly knows Miss Capet's identity, and like the Church of the Sages, it expects something to happen.
Jenkins walked in front of Miss Capet silently, hesitating whether to tell her everything. It's bound to provoke an unplanned reaction from everyone, though Jenkins doesn't really care.
The interlacing of light and shadow blurred the backs of the two, which also reflected the complexity in Jenkins' heart. Now he has a little understanding of the feelings of those around him who have been hiding things for a long time. Sometimes knowing the truth is more painful than not knowing it. At least the latter don't have to think about the possible consequences of the truth all the time.
The cat on his shoulder let out a soft meow. Jenkins, who was in deep thought, stopped to think and looked up. He saw a blood-stained metal armor standing in the middle of the road kneeling on one knee. As Jenkins and Miss Capet stopped, the armor slowly stood up, then raised his hand and pulled out the metal spear stuck on the floor.
"Why do rich people like to keep such murder weapons at home?"
Jenkins asked in a low voice, and of course the lady behind him didn't answer the question.
He flicked his wrist and took the cane out of the air again. Taking advantage of the gap, the armor had already held the spear with both hands and then jumped into the air. In a posture that did not obey the laws of basic mechanics, it completed the accumulation of retreating hands in the air. He moved vigorously, and then rushed towards the two people in front with the thunder of the spear point.
The corridor is narrow, and this trick cannot be avoided at all. Miss Capet took a step forward and raised her hands forward, the light green light formed a transparent shield in front of the two of them. Jenkins reached out and pulled Miss Capet back somewhat rudely. At the same time, the armor and spear easily broke through the shield, as if it was just a nice layer of air bubbles.
The left arm was erected to move the gun barrel towards the wall in a matter of seconds, but this also caused the lightning contact between the left arm and the tip of the gun, and half of the body was paralyzed without feeling. Gritting his teeth, Jenkins persisted, moving around to the right to the rear of the armor without stopping. Taking advantage of the gun's deep insertion into the wall, the armor fell to the point where it couldn't contain its strength, and Jenkins thrust out his cane from behind the armor.
It was supposed to be empty inside the armor, but after the cane pierced it, it seemed to be pierced into the sticky flesh. Jenkins didn't care much, the flames flowed down his arm into the staff and exploded inside the armor.
