Chapter 162 Lily's Love
"When I was very young, I held a ceremony that no one knew about."
Lily recalled and said in a low voice, "My sister, Anya, is a very powerful person. She studies hard and is fair. When she was very young, she said that she wanted to save the country. I I can't say that kind of words... At most, I just hope to see spring once in my life.
"I want to know what is 'birds and flowers' and what is 'harvest'. These words I read from books, I don't know what they mean.
"But then... sister, she had a very powerful goal. She wanted to marry the Grand Duke Ivan. At that time, she was only fourteen years old - this is very powerful, right?
"Because I don't know when Grand Duke Ivan will find a wife, my sister is a little anxious. It is very difficult for her to impress the Grand Duke and to use her own strength to change the situation of Winter. It's not that I don't have that kind of talent... ...but she was too young and too young.
"Sister wants to hold a forbidden ritual. Summons the Silver Sir and sells her 'life after 30' to trade triple wisdom for fifteen years. But this ritual cannot be known by parents, so she must collect it herself Ritual materials. I'm also helping her collect them.
"But because of my clumsiness, I took a cedar branch that had been withered for three years and turned it into a fir branch that had been withered for three years; I carefully cut my thumb, which caused the ritual knife to be stained with blood... Completely failed.
"My elder sister is not an extraordinary person, and the price of failure is death. My elder sister's lungs were damaged by the curse of disorder... And I was a little flustered at the time, so I used my elder sister to perform the ritual again with the remaining materials, and successfully called Silver Sir."
Speaking of which, Lily showed a smile that she didn't know whether it was a wry smile or a nostalgic smile: "It wasn't long before my sister died... Silver Sir is indeed a very fair god. I used one-third of my life to save my sister; With one-third of her lifespan, she gave her sister five years of double wisdom.
"Fortunately, the fact that the two of us secretly held a ceremony was not discovered by my parents. But... my lifespan is very short, if I stay at home, maybe... No, it will definitely be longer than the death of my parents. morning.
"I don't want to see them sad for me. Also, I want to go to the place where the spring flowers bloom in the book. I want to see the legendary sea of flowers before I die...
"It just so happens that four years later, my friend Yuffie, she is not satisfied with the marriage arranged by the Melvin family - 'Old Crow' Nolan Geraint, an uncle who is almost fifty years old, and Yuffie was only sixteen years old.
"Apart from this incident, Yuffie is not satisfied with the entire Melvin family. She thinks that the family only treats them as a tool to inherit the bloodline, and their every move, even food, clothing, housing and transportation must be arranged as if they were in prison. She is The only protesters of these traditions, and perhaps it is precisely because of this, that their family decided to marry her to Noah... and throw her far and out of sight.
"And Earl Nolan just hopes to get a child with Melvin blood. Melvin's god-human blood can give birth to a wizard child... He just hopes to have a child with extraordinary talent.
"—And Rasputin's bloodline can also do this."
"So I made an agreement with Yuffie... When Yuffie gets married, I will leave a letter and pretend to run away from home. But in fact, I want to replace Yuffie and marry Noah, and Yuffie will use my name, Go to the Underworld... Take my place in the Underworld to take an adventure."
Speaking of which, Lily showed a gentle smile: "I was very nervous at first. At first, I just wanted to fulfill my little wish... By the way, my parents would not be sad for me.
"But then I found out... Nolan was really nice to me.
"Although he is an earl, Noah's intelligence chief, and the father of two children. However, he is a very gentle person.
"He will remember my birthday, he will take me for a walk in the sea of flowers... When I accidentally cried,
He would stay by my side quietly, pat me on the back and hug me.
"I like Noah's flower sea very much, the silver-purple... very beautiful. That's the flower he took me to see. It's more beautiful than what I saw in the book, and more beautiful than what I dreamed of.
"I also like Noah. It's a city with spring, summer, and autumn... It's a place where a girl can wear a skirt that doesn't reach her knees. I also hope that someday, the winter can also bloom with spring flowers... I want my sister to see that beautiful sea of silver-purple flowers too.
"Of course, it's just a thought. It's impossible to do it. Sister, she will become the wife of Grand Duke Ivan... And there is a war between Winter and Noah.
"If one day, the war can end. Maybe my sister will be Noah as the Grand Duchess. At that time, I might be able to meet her... Give her this ring. If not..."
Speaking of this, Lily showed a faint, happy smile that seemed to glow: "If I am fortunate enough to die, my sister, my father and mother have not died... Please tell them that I am very happy. .
"And... I'm sorry."
She sat firmly in the chair, her hands on her knees. He bowed slightly forward.
……I see.
Annan couldn't help taking a deep breath.
He didn't say anything, but his eyes softened silently.
For some reason, his first reaction was... to say thank you to the old crow.
"The part after that is the secret stored in this ring. Please search according to the catalog and store the part you need."
Lily's voice became formulaic:
"One: the three-eyed crow and the one-eyed crow, and Noah's intelligence collection mode;
"Second: information on the counts of Noah Kingdom and above noble families;
"The third: the secrets of the ministers of Noah's kingdom;
"Fourth: Information about the false god "Faceless Poet";
"Part 5: About the process of 'Ritual: Forbidden Trading' and the mysterious knowledge it needs..."
Further down is the knowledge about various rituals... and the information about the curses she has collected.
Annan did not screen, but chose to absorb all the knowledge.
Although a considerable part of these materials overlapped with the information he already knew—for example, about the composition of the Three-Eyed Raven, for example, the relationship between the Faceless Poet and the Geraint family, there were also many that Annan lacked and related to. urgently needed.
Those materials just gave Annan the ability to help Kaphne.
The rest of the ceremonies are not too many. At least it won't make Annan feel too heavy to bear... After all, he is now the soul of the silver rank.
Annan stood there and quickly absorbed all the knowledge, but Lily suddenly spoke again: "If possible, I hope that after you have absorbed this knowledge, go see my son, his name is Don Juan Geraint.
"This is the ring that Yuffie and I made together. With this ring...he could be the Hand of Winter. I always feel that Lord Benjamin is not that simple...he may not be able to take care of Don Juan until he reaches adulthood. Noah had a bad day, so he gave him this ring... He has half of my blood, and will be accepted by Archduke Ivan after he becomes the Hand of Winter.
"This is a derelict mother, the last guardian of him.
"If something has happened to him...then this is a gift to you. Thank you for listening to me so much.
"I hope you can forget me."
And after Lily's last words fell, her virtual image completely disappeared in front of Annan.
