Chapter 684 Ancestors

For Duanmu Huai, this is the first time that he has fully used the power of the old god's will.

The tentacle slowly crawled into the man's ear hole, and then extended all the way inward. Duanmu Huai felt that the tentacle was like his own fingers, grasping the hot brain, and he could even clearly feel the slight trembling of the brain. This feeling not only comes from the tactile aspect, but also from the mental aspect, Duanmuhuai can feel that he has been completely connected with the man's brain. Now the man's brain is an undefended search for Duanmuhuai The engine can search for whatever content you want by typing in keywords.

So Duanmu Huai also glanced at the other person's brain, and then entered the keyword. Soon, the memory in this man's mind appeared in front of him.

He was born in a small village. Later, when the village was destroyed, he was rescued and taken away by a wandering mercenary. He then learned fighting skills and became a mercenary. At this time, in order to fight against the raging Demon King's army, the country Heroes were called for, so he responded to the call and embarked on the bumpy road until...

"Um???"

Looking at the familiar snowfield, familiar land, and familiar scenery in front of him, Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment, then silently withdrew his tentacles and looked at the black-robed eunuch who collapsed on the ground and was shaking. For a moment, even he didn't know what to say.

"Dong dong."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then Alleria walked in.

"Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Inquisitor, have you learned anything? Who is this man?"

"Well... I have gained something..."

Duanmu Huai looked at Aurelia and then at the black-robed eunuch with a rare expression of embarrassment.

"Any questions?"

"Well, it's not my problem anyway."

Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders, then spread his hands.

"He is your ancestor."

“…………………???”

After hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Allelia tilted her head, looking confused. Obviously, Her Royal Highness the Princess did not know that this was also a curse word.

"Sorry, I don't understand..."

"Well, he is your ancestor. In a literal sense, this guy is the brave man who sealed the demon king and saved the country."

Duanmuhuai silently pointed at the man in black robe who was lying on the ground like a pile of dog excrement, and said lightly, while Alleria... was stunned.

"Hug, I'm sorry, I seemed to have heard wrongly? He...?"

"If you don't believe it, ask yourself."

Duanmuhuai silently walked to the side and made room for Alleria. To be honest, he was a little confused when he first came into contact with her memory. After all, the so-called brave man was just a background, but unexpectedly, he was still alive and alive until now... and he also became a shady BOSS...

"Are you really an ancestor?"

To be honest, this answer also made Alleria confused and at a loss. The latter also stopped struggling at this moment, seemingly giving up resistance and nodded.

"Yes, I am Orlia Christopher...the stupid man who let the devil go."

"Huh? Let the devil go?"

Aurelia was stunned when she heard the man's answer.

"But obviously..."

"You have already broken the seal, haven't you? The coffin inside is empty. This is normal, because I didn't seal the Demon King at all, but made a deal with it."

When the man said this, he also stood up tremblingly. To be honest, looking at him, he didn't look like the brave man who held the holy sword and defeated the devil at all. Instead, he looked like a deeply addicted patient.

"trade?"

Duanmuhuai had already known what happened through "recalling the past", but Allelia knew nothing about it. She was also shocked when she heard about it.

"Yes, I gained the power of the Demon King and the ability to live forever! In exchange, the Demon King must not return to this world again within five hundred years!"

"I do not believe!"

Hearing the man's words, Alleria shook her head and looked at him with a stern expression.

"I don't know who you are, but I will never allow you to pretend to be an ancestor and slander him!"

"Slander? Hahaha, if you want evidence, then just look at it!"

As he spoke, the man suddenly tore open his clothes, revealing a skinny body with even the ribs clearly visible. I saw a strange prismatic mark in the center of his chest, which even emitted a faint firelight. When she saw this sign, Alleria was stunned for a moment, subconsciously stretched out her hand to hold her chest, and looked at the man in surprise.

"How is it? Do you feel it? This is the emblem that we have passed down from generation to generation, the symbol that represents the descendants of the brave - Hahahaha, bah! This is actually the brand that that bastard put on our clan! Hahahahahaha!! "

At this moment, the man in black robe seemed to have fallen into some kind of madness. He raised his head and laughed, while Alleria looked at him blankly, as if her whole outlook was shattered - well, that's understandable. , who has always been regarded as a role model, turned out to be such a guy. Duanmu Huai felt that it would not be much better if he was replaced.

"...So, are you really...an ancestor??"

Pressing her chest and feeling the faint fluctuations of the mark, Alleria couldn't help but believe it at the moment. This mark was shared by all descendants who inherited the bloodline of the brave, and they could feel each other's presence as long as they concentrated on sensing. The man in black robe has always been by the king's side, so Alleria just because it was her father's induction, but now...

"Yes, I am the idiot who made Luminas turn from a mere small country to what it is now."

The man snorted nonchalantly, and then looked at Alleria.

"To be honest, I thought my descendants had died long ago. Why do you think you are working so hard?"

"...I, I don't understand..."

Alleria was also confused at the moment. The shock was so great that she couldn't recover.

"Since you are an ancestor, why would you do such a thing? Didn't you turn this country into such a powerful country in the first place? And why did you make a deal with the Demon King?"

"Why?"

Upon hearing Alleria's inquiry, the man suddenly became furious.

"What do you know!"

"Why?"

"You have been a princess since you were born, and you are also a descendant of a brave man. You don't know how to be held in the palm of someone's hand! Do you think that your ancestors are just like you? There are people who protect, watch, and accompany you in everything you do?"

After saying this, the man stretched out his hand and pointed at himself.

"I was just a desperate mercenary back then. If I hadn't pulled out the Holy Sword, I would have been one of the pawns who died in the Demon King's army! And do you think that once the Holy Sword is in your hands, it will be safe? Is that wrong? Why did you think I made a deal with the devil in the first place? It was because the royal family wanted to kill me!"

"Kill... you?"

"That's right, before I went to fight against the Demon King, that bullshit king found me and said categorically that he would give me the throne when I came back. The princess also found me and said that she would marry me when I defeated the Demon King and came back! "

"Uh...isn't that so?"

Seeing the man's furious look, Alleria didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, the stories and historical records she had heard since she was a child said that after the hero returned from defeating the Demon King, he married the princess, and then gave Luminas built a strong country. But now looking at the appearance of my ancestors, it seems that this is not the case?

"Of course not! If you think about it carefully, which princess would be willing to marry herself to a mercenary? What's more, after defeating the devil, what value do I have? I have no money and no aristocratic power, but it's okay I became more cautious. After that, I eavesdropped on their conversation and learned that they had already made a decision. After I defeated and sealed the Demon King, they would let the lackeys pretend to be my companions. How about killing me and telling the public that 'the brave man died together with the Demon King, and used his last strength to seal the Demon King before his death'... Isn't it a very touching story?"

"Quite old-fashioned."

Duanmu Huai commented silently, but Aurelia... was unable to say a word at this moment.

At this moment, the man is getting more and more crazy.

"It was then that I realized that in their eyes, I had no status or value at all. My only use was to pull out the holy sword! Those so-called companions looked down on me, the nobles looked down on me, Princess Look down on me, even the king looks down on me! And if these bastards still want to burn bridges, why should I fight for them?"

The man's eyes were bright red at the moment, staring at Alleria coldly, as if he was staring at his mortal enemy.

"So, I chose betrayal. The life and death of human beings is none of my business. Since you want to kill me, I can kill you in turn! I know that the devil cannot be killed, so I signed an agreement with him. I have gained the power of the Demon King’s immortality, so no one can kill me!”

Speaking of this, the man became more and more excited and excited, as if he had returned to that day again.

"I still remember that day. When I came back, the expressions on that old bastard and that bitch's faces were so wonderful! They also held a party just for me, even gave me wine and gave me He poisoned me and wanted me to die silently—but unfortunately, I have gained the power of the Demon King’s immortality. Swords, poisons, and magic have no effect on me!”

The man clenched his fists and looked ferocious.

"I killed everyone who dared to oppose me, and then I fucked that bitch over and over again in front of the old immortal on the throne, until she died! Then I chopped off the old immortal's head and let They know, this is the price, the price they pay for daring to cheat me!”

Alleria was no different from a doll at this moment. On the contrary, Duanmuhuai clapped politely beside her, which was a bit of a response.

At this moment, the man seemed to have completely opened up his chatterbox and started talking nonstop.

"Of course, those nobles didn't obey me at first, and then I almost killed them all, and the remaining people became obedient. After all, when they found out that I couldn't be killed, they gave up their resistance. Then I became the king of Ruminas. Of course, this was not the end. I made up my mind to become the king who ruled the entire continent, so I started to launch wars and attack other countries... Then, Rumi was born. That’s brilliant today.”

"Isn't this great? So why did you abandon the throne and run away?"

Now Alleria was completely stunned, so Duanmuhuai raised this question on Alleria's behalf. If what the man said is true, then he can live forever, right?

"betray!"

However, it was okay if Duanmu Huai didn't ask, but when he asked the man, he immediately exploded again.

"Those bastards, they actually hid my bloodline secretly and betrayed me!!"

Amidst the man's angry condemnation, Duanmu Huai and Alleria were also aware of the situation. They had said before that when the brave man and the devil signed a contract, the other party said that he would come and make all his descendants their own in five hundred years. slave.

Of course the brave man doesn't want to, he just wants to default on the bill.

How to default on the debt? It's very simple, wouldn't it be fine as long as you have no descendants?

Anyway, if you live forever, what’s the use of having future generations?

So those women who were pregnant with their children were mercilessly executed by the brave men.

Of course, wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. Finally, some people chose to flee in order to avoid themselves and their children being executed. The cruel behavior of the brave man for so many years has also aroused many resistance forces. The two sides joined forces to help the woman who spoiled the brave child escape from the palace.

Later, the woman gave birth to a child, and the child was raised by the resistance organization as a hope of fighting against the brave.

The reason for doing this is also very simple. After all, at that time, no one knew why the brave man would live forever and could not be killed no matter what, so they thought that this might be from the power of the holy sword held by the brave man, so he wanted to break this wave. To have the power, a descendant who also inherited the blood of the brave must be able to kill him...

Well, it turns out that the people's brain power is quite strong. In fact, this thing has nothing to do with any holy sword.

What follows is a template for a legendary story. The hero's descendants led the resistance army to overthrow the hero's rule, defeated him, took the holy sword and pierced the hero's heart.

Well, of course he's not dead, otherwise where did this person come from?

But even if he didn't die, the hero was seriously injured because he inherited the power of the Demon King. At that time, he was thought to be dead, so he was buried directly. Then the descendants of the brave man inherited the throne, and then the country that was in chaos by the brave man was put back on track.

As for this dark history... it must have been sealed directly.

However, it was this death that made the brave man discover that he had fallen into the trap designed by the devil from the very beginning!
