Release that Witch Chapter 1012: Olivia
Crossing alleys covered with snow, listening to the creaking sound from the soles of the feet, Olivia's chest became warmer.
northern region's winter is always the same. The sky is dark and gloomy, as if a piece of stone slab is pressed against everyone's head; the earth is shrouded in snow, and everything has lost its original color. Coupled with the ensuing cold and hunger, this monotonous scene can hardly be annoying.
But she saw a color that was never before.
The color is brighter than the rainbow. Even in this season of snow and snow, it is as eye-catching as the sky and the stars.
The closer you get to it, the more impatient Olivia can be.
The end of the light pointed directly at the cottage she rented.
If it ’s not for a living, she does n’t even want to leave it one step
That's her child.
Crystal of her and Gerald Wimbledon.
With him, she seems to have the whole world.
Thinking of this, Olivia's footsteps can't help a little faster.
However, when she turned into the last lane, her heart was choked suddenly.
I saw more than a dozen lines of footprints on the white ground. From the perspective, they entered the place from another alley and broke straight into the courtyard.
She lives temporarily in this compound.
The neighbors here are ordinary civilians, let alone the Months of Demons. Even in the spring and summer, there are very few guests visiting. Why are there so many footprints in vain?
All of a sudden, Olivia felt dizzy in his head, and then an inexplicable fear came to mind.
No, calm down ... she kept telling herself that maybe it was just a band of robbers who came to rob, or the refugees living here were just as bad as outsiders, it was her last hope.
But at the first glance after entering the compound with trembling, even this hope no longer exists.
The door of her rented house is full of patrolmen wearing soft armor. One of them is dressed up as Knight. The badge on his chest represents him from the Kant family who ruled Northern Lands.
"No!"
Olivia I don't know where a power broke out, I left the milk cake that was hard to buy in my arms, and rushed down to the door!
At that moment, she was ready to be killed.
You do n’t even need to do anything, just pull out a sword and stop her, and she will hit her!
Unexpectedly, they didn't seem to be indifferent to her appearance. They just turned slightly sideways and let her rush straight into the room.
The threshold tripped over Olivia, who had no choice but to go, the cold ground tore her sarong like a grinding disc, but the pain from the knee was insignificant. She crawled into the small bedroom with tears in her face, and when she wanted to see the child for the last time, she realized that the expected scene did not appear.
A azure-haired female sits at the bed, teasing her child expressionlessly, and the nanny who usually takes care of the child stands side by side respectfully, as if the other party is the Lord.
Then the woman raised head came and glanced at her just a glance, letting Olivia understand that this person is definitely not in the same category as herself, even though she has a memorable appearance, she can do nothing Associate her with common women. Mild, weak, charming, sensual ... The words that belong to women are not suitable for her. Even if she holds the child, there is no light of motherhood in her eyes.
Instead of teasing her child, she might ... she is teasing a toy.
"Meet for the first time," said the other slowly, "My name is Edith Kant. You should have heard my name."
Pearl of the Northern Lands Olivia was shocked. She is the eldest daughter of Kant Duke. The strange woman who is rumored to be able to lead Knight into charge? The name of Pearl in northern region can be described as no one knows, no one knows, even Gerald mentioned her many times.
Some people even say that she is more difficult to deal with than Duke herself.
"I've met an adult," Olivia swallowed, leaned down, and touched the ground with his head, "Excuse me, this time, you want to ..."
Edith waved his hand, the babysitter beside him immediately saluted, then left the bedroom, and closed the door with him.
At this step, she already understood that the nanny she found was arranged by the Kant family.
They have long discovered the secrets of the children.
"To make a long story short, I was entrusted by His Majesty The King to bring the blood of the Wimbledon family back to Neverwinter City."
"Then ... Is he executed in secret?" Olivia said hardly.
"If it's just to wipe out his existence, you can do it anywhere, you don't have to work so hard," Edith unwrapped the cloth over the child's head, exposing the shallow ash-grey hair, "Your Majesty needs a reason to hide people's ears, that's all. "
Olivia couldn't help but hold her back, she really couldn't understand the meaning of the other person's words, "Sir, I ... don't understand ..."
"It's not as complicated as you think," Pearl of the Northern Lands shrugged, "Have you heard of witch?"
...
After listening to each other's story, it took Olivia a long time to link the two things together, and the conclusion reached was even more incredible than fantasy story! Roland Wimbledon is determined to marry a witch, so he plans to pull the children of Gerald out to calm down public opinion? She didn't understand the doorway of noble, but she felt that this method was too counterintuitive.
The other party is King, is it really necessary to do this step?
She gritted her teeth, summons courage said, "Sir, please forgive me. Maybe Your Majesty has this idea now, but it does not mean that it will continue to be the case in the future. In case of any change, Xie Luo he ..."
"Xie Luo? Is this the child's name?" Edith raised an eyebrow. "You don't seem to understand your situation yet. The Your Majesty's order is absolute. You only have two choices. , No longer ask about it, or go with him to Neverwinter City, but can no longer show up in the name of his mother, but a servant of the noble family. "
Olivia felt tears bursting in her eyes, yes, her identity was too humble, impossible became part of the royal family, "Who will take care of him instead of me?"
"No one."
"Eh?" She slammed raised head, and the tears dripped into the corners of her mouth.
"Your Majesty is not so unfriendly. If you choose the latter, except for changing your identity, everything else is unchanged. You can still stay with him and watch him grow up. The noble family is already in Church's. The attack was destroyed, and Gerald's fiancee entrusted the child to you before he died. The above is the entire story. "Edith paused," In addition, this news has already been announced in other territories, northern region is no exception, just wait In two or three days, you can hear the whole content of this message. If he wants to get rid of you, why bother talking about it? "
Pearl of the Northern Lands means ... Is Your Majesty doing this mainly to reassure her?
Olivia held her chest, and involuntarily emerged from her mind that night, she was desperate, and found him who was still Fourth Prince at the time, and the other party did give her a helping hand. Although he may have an unscrupulous purpose, if it was not for this, she would have been killed by the tavern owner.
She took a deep breath, wiped her face, and stood up from the ground. Her long kneeling position made her legs numb, but she still controlled her body, "Master Pearl of the Northern Lands, may I ask ... Is this child a chance to become King?"
"No." There was a hint of interest in Edith's eyes, "set off before Your Majesty deliberately explained, if you don't have to have fantasy, there is no hope, there is no disappointment. Of course, this is forbidden to spread."
"No, my lord, I won't be disappointed. It is my greatest wish to make him grow up safely." Olivia's voice is getting slower and slower, as if every word requires all his strength. "But, this The successor to Your Majesty has not been resolved. In case he changes his mind in the future and decides to establish a true crown prince, the latter will surely regard Sherlock as a nail in the eye, and by then, he may not be able to survive! "She looked directly at the other party. , Word by word, "I know I can't change anything, but if you can't tell me a reasonable answer, please kill me here!"
"Oh?" Edith eyes narrowed.
It's bloodthirsty.
She is as weak as a lamb in front of each other.
But even so, Olivia still held up its chest, without giving in, "if not, this day will come true sooner or later. I can't do it by hand, Gerald Wimbledon children, adults!"
Of course there will be no answer. Even if there is, there is no need for the other party to tell a humble maid. She can only do this ... Sorry, Gerald, Olivia closed her eyes, waiting for the coldness of her throat to cut through her throat Sorry ... dear.
As if feeling the coming farewell, the child wakes up from his sleep and crying rises.
She tried her best to stop her eyes from opening.
She's afraid she won't be able to make that decision with just a glance.
However, the blow didn't arrive.
Until Edith chuckled and said, "Yes."
Olivia looks at each other in disbelief.
Then Pearl of the Northern Lands opened his mouth and said the answer silently. It was a more incredible answer, even beyond her imagination, but somehow she believed the words of the other party. Probably when falling into the vortex, even a straw will be a hope for life, not to mention her almost drowned.
Instead of being persuaded, she might as well persuade herself.
Edith tossed the crying child to Olivia, turned around and walked out the door, "depart in three days, prepare for luggage."
"Adult ..." As she passed by, she murmured, "Quiet Valley Town has a tavern owner, and His Highness Gerald, an unknown guard, may know this."
"I'll deal with it yourself, you don't need to worry." Edith didn't reply.
When Pearl of the Northern Lands left, Olivia hugged the child tightly, for fear that he would disappear, and the latter calmed down and buried her head in her chest.
During a fierce heartbeat, she couldn't help asking herself, was that really possible?
During the silent conversation, she clearly saw the answer said by the other party.
That's a simple word, but it has a fascinating magic power.
"Eternal life."
This is answer for King.
