Chapter 657 A Wonderful Fate
The knights moved out of the way, and a green-haired lady stepped out.
"Oh! What a beauty."
Nathan whistled and the smile returned to his face.
But the next moment his smile froze.
A cluster of flames appeared out of thin air in the green-haired lady's hand.
As a spellcaster proficient in fire magic, Nathan could tell that this was no magic.
Edward exclaimed, "A spellcaster."
Ladi Setia ordered solemnly: "I hope you will not resist, otherwise it will be very dangerous."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk! This beautiful sister, please allow me to explain."
Nathan recovered from his surprise.
"Maybe you don't know, we are the same as you..."
"The same spell caster, right?" La Di choked him back.
"It is precisely because of this that I want to arrest you!"
Nathan snorted coldly, "What if I refuse?"
"Hey, hey! You two, don't start a dispute yet."
Edward said in a smoothing tone.
"So." He lowered his voice to Ladi, "Count Grayman has become your servant?"
Although it was quiet, many people could still hear it, and the guards showed angry expressions.
Edward said this because of the old tradition of mages - to seduce a lord in a remote place and make him surrender to the power of magic and become his servant.
This is also one of the reasons for the poor image of spellcasters.
"Then you are wrong." Ladi denied, "On the contrary, I am a servant of Earl Grayman."
"Fall yourself!" Both Nathan and Edward became angry.
"The majestic spellcaster actually stooped to a mortal!"
The atmosphere immediately became tense, and muskets were raised and aimed at the two men.
"Okay, everyone, calm down!"
A rather dignified female voice sounded.
The door of the carriage opened, and the red-haired Mariana jumped off the ground.
Ladi's pupils widened, "Teacher?"
teacher?
Paul, Nathan, Edward and a circle of guards were all confused.
"What a wonderful fate."
Mariana smiled and said to her former student: "Ladi, I never thought we would meet in the northwest bay."
"Is she the talented student you always talk about?"
Nathan actually remembered something, and it turned out that this was the "other people's child" that his mother called him.
"Uh... uh..."
Ladi didn't know what to say.
It was the first time that Paul saw such a panicked expression on her face.
He cleared his throat, drawing Mariana's attention to her.
"Beautiful lady, I can find a place for you to reminisce. For La Di's sake, I promise to protect your personal safety. Please come with us. Of course, I will search you for all suspicious items."
"Okay!" Mariana agreed, ignoring the puzzled expressions of Nathan and Edward.
"Now that we know our identity and have taken in a spellcaster as a subordinate, I think Count Grayman is not the kind of person who has stereotypes about us."
"And these guards of yours must be people who can keep secrets strictly."
Seeing that the other party agreed, Paul ordered a body search and Ladi took charge of her teacher.
But something unexpected happened.
Nathan cooperated very reluctantly and was slightly hurt by the guard.
He suddenly became furious, and flames burst out from his hands.
With a crash, a large number of muskets were pointed at him.
Mariana shouted hurriedly: "You can't hurt him!"
Paul said coldly: "I don't think he has the consciousness of being a prisoner."
He had long been unhappy with this arrogant-looking boy.
Paul took out his gun and wanted to scare the other person.
Nathan sneered, and his fighting spirit instantly rose.
"No, you can't. Paul, please!"
Mariana was very anxious, and her leisurely demeanor completely disappeared.
Fear and worry took over her face.
"He's your brother!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was instantly stunned.
"What did you say?" It took Paul a long time to react.
"Ma'am, I understand how you want to protect him, but it would be too outrageous to make up such a lie."
There's something funny about him.
"I do have a younger brother, but the sad thing is that he died at a young age. Just based on what you just said, I can send you to prison without any other reason."
Ladi was very surprised that her teacher would make up such an outrageous reason.
"No." Mariana calmed down but said a little sadly: "Your brother did not die in infancy, and he is standing in front of you."
Nathan couldn't help shouting: "Mom!"
It was so shameful that my mother, who was just a bunch of mortals, started trying to lie her way out.
The key is who would believe this kind of lie!
Mariana ignored Nathan. She was looking at Paul without moving.
There is no mistake. One post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!
"And I am your mother."
The witch's mouth did not move, but Paul heard the words clearly and unmistakably.
Suddenly it was like being struck by lightning.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Paul laughed and pointed at Mariana.
"Did you hear her joke?"
"They can't hear it." The voice in his head came again.
Paul swung his horsewhip angrily, "This is the most ridiculous thing in the world! Madman, handcuff them all!"
The guards were about to pounce on him with their shackles in hand.
"You have a diamond-shaped birthmark on the inside of your thigh. You should know that, right?"
It was the red-haired witch's voice again, but...
"Wait!" Paul yelled.
The guards stopped immediately.
Paul looked at the red-haired witch with a strange expression.
There was a long silence.
Everyone could sense something was wrong with the count's expression.
What the witch said... was it true?
Look at Count Graman, and then look at the wizard boy who was arrogant just now and now looks confused. The more you look at him, the more similar he is.
Maybe the old count gave birth to the baby outside?
The guard who was about to go up and put on the handcuffs retreated a little.
Paul frowned and asked Marianna angrily: "What's going on?"
Marianna smiled, but it was a little reluctant.
"It's very complicated, and I can't explain it in one or two sentences."
"Hmph!" Paul pointed at the carriage, "Go in and go back with us."
"As you say, little Earl Graman!"
The witch actually answered mischievously, bowed and lifted her skirt to make a graceful salute, then turned and walked towards the carriage.
Although she didn't know what fate she would face, the big stone in her heart that had been there for many years finally disappeared.
Some repressed nature was released, and time seemed to go back more than ten years, when she also lived on this land.
Nathan pulled a corner of his mother, "That... is it true?"
"Shut up, you bastard!" Marianna glared at him, "What were you crazy about just now!"
"Yes, this must be a story made up by my mother to escape danger." Nathan thought in panic, he couldn't accept it at all.
Marianna got on the carriage, and there were two more people in it, O'Donnell who was still unconscious and Dessen who took care of him.
"You seem very calm!" Marianna frowned.
"Oh, could it be worse, Lady Chiyan?"
——
The carriage drove towards Lake Town under the escort of a group of servants.
"Ladi."
Paul, riding on a horse, called his mystic consultant softly.
"Paul, my mind is very confused now!"
Ladi answered a little absentmindedly.
Meeting a teacher she hadn't seen for many years was enough to shock her.
But the Count met his brother again.
If it was true, it really confirmed what the teacher said.
"What a wonderful fate."
