The Amber Sword: Act 50 two letters xv
"Amandina, you can open it." Brando looked at the box and said.
Amandina reacted for a moment, then immediately came over, she looked at one's own Lord Thane carefully, her heart moved, and then she nodded gently.
She put her hand on the cold iron box, restraining the excitement in her heart, chanting the mantra in a low voice, and spit out byte by byte from her soft lips, low and clear, the box His lock seemed to be held up by an invisible hand, then slipped away quietly, and finally landed on the ground with a click. She opened the box slowly, breathed in. Below was a layer of waterproof tarpaulin. Below the tarpaulin was divided into three tightly wrapped packages. The outer skin of the package was also the same material of tarpaulin, and a letter was placed on the package. The sealing wax on the letter also printed the emblem they had seen before.
Amandina opened the envelope only after getting the instructions, and read the letter carefully. The content of the letter is almost the same as the will. -- If anyone else finds this legacy, I hope the discoverer can divide legacy into three. He can inherit the richest part of it, and the remaining two meager parts and some sundries are left to Amandina and Sadie, so that they can at least have a life to rely on, and it is also a commemoration. There are still some words left for Amandina in the letter. I hope that she can be happy and forgive his irresponsible father -- Miss Adviser. After reading the last sentence, holding the letter in both hands for a long time without saying a word, she bowed her head, The dense eyelash trembled like feathers.
Brando and Freya looked at each other behind her. The future Valkyrie was full of sympathy, and she almost wanted to share the sadness of Miss Adviser with her body. She thought of one's own's life, and her heart was soft.
It took a while for Amandina to put down the stationery. She looked fine, but her face was horribly pale: "Lord Thane, let's open these packages."
Brando looked at her like this and couldn't bear to talk, just nodded, he suddenly thought that he was really right this time. He thought that Miss Adviser had long forgotten the haze of the past, but he did not expect these sorrows in her heart. Buried so deep. Amandina first opened the largest package silently, and the gold silver light mang immediately reflected the faces of the three people present. Inside were neat and tidy gold bars and silver ingots, and some jewellery and stacked house deeds and land deeds. She quickly estimated After a while, I concluded that at least more than 100,000 Tor property. For a small noble household, this is also a lot of money. --, but this money was prepared by his father for those who found legacy. Amandina silently transferred It set aside and opened the second package again.
The second package is also similar, but the amount is about half -- of the previous package. This is left to her mother. There is also a letter with the signature Sadie, which is her mother. Amandina did not open the envelope, but looked at the letter for a while before lowering it gently. Then she picked up the third package, the smallest package, --, about the size of a vanity box, and this package was left to her.
She felt almost choked when she was holding the package, but hold the breath opened it carefully. She separated the layers of oiled paper into a delicate walnut box. Opening the box again, the ring was covered with a ring and a thin necklace on the velvet cloth, and the moment she saw the necklace, tears could not help but roll down along her cheeks.
Brando and Freya looked silent at the necklace. The original crystal pendant of that necklace was a beautiful Recording Crystal. When the box was opened, the crystal glowed light, just reflecting a man and a woman. Standing side by side, the man had black hair and a slight outline of Amandina on his face. He smiled softly at Amandina:
"Anna, if one day you open this box by yourself, I believe I'm already dead at this time. My beloved daughter, my irresponsible father, dare not ask for your forgiveness, but please be sure I believe that your father's life is the pursuit of the most justice and justice in this world. Because I know that the person who pays and bears responsibility for this world can never be the sinner -- Anna in his population, I hope that one day , You can use your clear eyes to see all the truth in this world, instead of being blinded by falsehood, because you are so intelligent, it is my life's pride -- "
"This ring is a token of my engagement with your mother. After obtaining your mother's consent, I will leave it here and stay here. I hope that I can leave it to you as a witness to witness your happiness. , Your favorite half. "
"Anna," said a gentle woman who is similar to Amandina, she smiled slightly: "May one day, you can find your one's own happiness."
"The liar ..." Amandina suddenly sobbed, as if the depressed feeling had finally erupted at this moment, like the flood of the dyke, surging, the whimper of the injured beast finally turned into a wailing, Brando never saw The quiet and calm Miss Adviser showed such a side. It was helpless like a child. His weak shoulders were shaking, except for crying, as if he couldn't make any more sound.
Brando is also speechless. Some emotions in this world can always move people's hearts and hit the softest place in the hearts of the people, and the family relationship is undoubtedly the one that will always be constant. -- no matter in his eyes How strong and indifferent, as if I haven't remembered everything in the past, but in front of one's own parents, Amandina still cried like a child. -- is not biting the lips, tears swirling in the eyes, but completely silent, Crying and running, hissing like a beast.
Freya also turned his head and wiped the corners of his eyes with his hands.
I don't know how long it has passed.
Miss Adviser finally sorted out the one's own relationship. She blushed and tried not to watch Freya and Brando, as if she was afraid to make them read a joke. "Lord Thane, I checked it carefully. There doesn't seem to be a relic of Darus." As soon as she spoke, her face couldn't help turning redder, because her voice was so hoarse that it almost seemed like someone was talking.
Brando looked at her with some concern and asked, "It's all right, Amandina."
Amandina shook her head and gently let out a relaxed breath, she was in a mess, and for a moment she said if it wasn't really okay or not. In any case, after getting what her father left her, it seemed that the hatred of the father who had never left her again seemed not so strong. She thought silently, maybe when Lady Mother was holding the one's own hand on the sickbed, they already knew where his father had gone, they always knew, because his father had never deceived his mother, they just joined forces to lie to her forget it/that's all . She smiled, then shook her head slightly. Although the tears still hung on her cheeks, Miss Adviser smiled very cute.
Brando is finally sighed in relief. He looked at Freya. This kind-hearted Bucce girl is also sighed in relief.
There is no relic of Darus in the box, which is the opposite of what was written on the letter, which is both expected and unexpected by Brando. After thinking for a while, he replied: "Amandina, your father cannot guarantee that the person who unearthed his legacy will be you, nor can he guarantee that the unearthed person will keep his promise to legacy to your mother and daughter, so he is unlikely Put such important things directly in legacy. "
Amandina nodded.
"But he clearly wrote in the letter ..." Freya asked a little puzzlingly: "That was a private letter, he didn't have to lie to isn't that so?" She immediately responded by herself, saying: "I understand Now, he does not need to put the relics of Darus in one's own legacy, but he can leave a clue -- in legacy "
Brando gave her a surprised look: "... how did you suddenly become smart."
Freya stared at him with gritted teeth.
"If my father left me a message in legacy, I think it can only be in my parcel." Amandina thought for a moment and replied.
"But isn't it possible in your mother's package?" Freya asked again.
Amandina shook his head: "My mother's parcel is basically rich, and my father will definitely estimate the greed of the human heart, and only the legacy left to me is almost all sundries and not noticeable. And before I also checked my mother ’s package, and the letter, there was nothing worthy of note. "
"Amandina, you guessed it early, your brain is really good." Freya was envious, she was never the smartest one at Knights Academy, it can even be said to be a bit stupid, but for the truly talented and intelligent People, she has only envy, not a little jealousy. Her Highness the Princess told her that her father was the most talented Knight-Thane in the last era of Aouine, which made her very distressed, why she was so clumsy.
Miss Adviser smiled slightly.
"Have you checked?" Brando asked again.
Amandina nodded: "I checked the necklace and ring, as well as inside and outside the box, and found no clues." She thought for a while, and replied, "I don't think my father will make it so important. Information is left in a conspicuous place, and only by taking it apart, I am afraid that it is clear where the clue is. "
"But that is the last relic left by your father --"
"it doesn't matter, Lord Thane," Amandina replied softly: "This is also my father's wish, and he will not blame us for it. Besides, if we miss someone, we should be in our hearts, not entangled in these. Things. "
She opened the box, but Brando held her hand. "Come on," he said, "show me the necklace."
Amandina glanced slightly, raises head took a look at the one's own Lord Thane, then nodded, and put the necklace on his hand. Brando took the necklace and examined it carefully, then he pinched the necklace's pendant and turned it slightly. For only a moment, pendant really loosened. He lowered the pendant in a certain direction, then carefully lifted it towards the light in the room, and then pulled out a piece of paper wrapped from it.
He has no lag in this movement, as if he had thought about all of this in advance, and had long guessed that the note was hidden in the necklace, he thoroughly watched the Freya and Amandina next to it.
"Lord ... Lord?" Amandina opened his mouth slightly, almost thinking that one's own Lord Thane is really a omniscient god.
Recording Crystal has a Physical feature. Their crystal structure is hollow. Brando first thought of this when inspecting this necklace. He tried to remove pendant, but he did not expect to succeed in one fell swoop. It's also a coincidence. He exchanged the necklace to Amandina, and couldn't help but smile and talk about the reason, Amandina, but it still looked at it with great respect, but she looked at one's own Lord Thane with great respect. She was doing Magicite construction research. She is most familiar with various types of crystal, but Recording Crystal is a side door, because this is a kind of artificial Mana crystal, there are very few who really understand its Physical characteristics. -- only has one's own Lord Thane, and it is almost unheard of to learn so that it can be so important.
The three of them opened the note, but found that some strange symbols were drawn on the note, which were like graffiti for children. Neither Brando nor Amandina immediately understood what it was, but Freya gently ‘ah' gave a voice and blurted out: "Ah, this is military code."
"Military code?" Brando was a little hesitant. He knew that there were often some secret messages in the military that needed to be transmitted. Every country had a set of secret symbols modified from the ancient Rune. He was very familiar with Aouine's military code. Ten years ago, 'Anson code' was still the new 'New code' after the frosty upheaval. He could read them, but these were obviously not any of them. He looked at the Freya around him with a questioning look. This future Valkyrie nodded surely to him:
"This is the military code of Kirrlutzian, and it is also the old cipher text half a century ago. I happened to learn it at Royal Officer Academy."
She said so, Amandina also responded. "Yes," Miss Adviser replied as if remembering something: "When I was a kid, my father taught I will some of these code, but he didn't tell me what it was."
Brando did not expect that Freya had learned Kirrlutzian's code. He immediately asked: "Can you read it?"
Freya read it carefully, then nodded: "The problem is not big, Brando, this seems to be a map ..."
...
"What are these?"
There are three things in front of Freya, a light grey crystal, some russet stone tablet, and a papyrus map -- which only outlines a few lines. These three things are all taken out of the same iron box. This box is after she deciphered the cipher text, and took out -- from the floor of an old house in Hood area. Of course, she didn't know anything.
Brando tried to get Dean to spend some money to smuggle the legacy of Amandina father from graveyard. He applied the element guardian spell on the box so that those people could not open the box; and within graveyard There are many 'lives' in and out, and those wizards who secretly learned Black Magic from touch will not be able to carry out the corpses with great fanfare, so it is not surprising to use the box. Brando was originally worried that it would cause suspicion. But he still underestimated the extent to which these things were commonplace in the eyes of grave robbers.
After getting a sum of money from Dean, the gravekeeper patted his chest and promised him not to send out such a box, even if he was going to lift a few coffins out of graveyard, there was absolutely nothing wrong. problem. Then he didn't know where to find some people who were arrogant. In the eyes of Brando, those guys behaved somewhat like the traces of the Thief brotherhood. In short, with the help of these people, the boxes were smuggled out smoothly. There was no twists and turns in the process. The person carrying the box did not know how many such tasks had been done for many years. The box full of gold and silver seemed to carry a stone in their hands, and he did not take a look at it from beginning to end. .
Brando ca n’t help but feel lucky. Fortunately, I am smart enough to use blessed/buffed on the box to perform a wing operation. Otherwise, these people ’s experience may feel weight problems as soon as I get started.
After they have transported everything back to the manor, and went to Hood area to retrieve the last relic of Amandina father, --, or rather the relic of Sword Saint Darus, it is almost evening. Brando opened the box in his study, one by one took out the contents of the box, and then the above scene appeared.
But compared to Freya's confusion, Brando and Amandina look slightly different.
"Lord Thane, these stone tablets ..." Miss Adviser keenly remembered: "I seemed to have seen it when I was a kid. When my father bought it for the first time in an peddler, it seemed as if he was treasured. Since then he has been in each I bought these stone tablets. I remember there is a long a period of time, he has been playing with these stone tablet. "
"Did he tell you anything?" Brando stared at the crystal of that grey, without asking.
Amandina recalled for a while, but shook his head: "I was too young at that time, faintly remembered that my father said a few times, it seems to mean something like these keys to which stone tablet leads, but then these stone tablet gradually gradually Disappeared from my field of vision, I thought my father already had lost interest in them, but he didn't expect him to save them. "
"Amandina, you haven't thought about it, these things are actually related to my grandfather." Brando replied.
"I'm afraid yes. According to the letter, this box contains the relics of the adult Darus, as well as the fragments -- could it be that about what the father called the" picture ". These stone tablet?" Amandina somewhat Asked in confusion.
But Brando did not answer.
He stared at the grey gem.
