Chapter 211 Witch

After getting the detailed information, Duanmuhuai naturally found the black knife cemetery very quickly, and found a black knife engraved with some kind of brand in it, then he returned to the wooden house and handed the black knife to the Roger's hand.

"this………"

  Looking at the black blade handed over by Duanmuhuai, Roger couldn't hide his surprise.

   "Could this be the brand of the black knife? I didn't expect that you actually got it..."

   While speaking, Roger stroked the strangely shaped black blade.

   "Is there a way to find death runes?"

   Staring at Roger, Duanmu Huai asked, while Roger nodded.

   "If you want to inject the power of the death rune, although it is only a fragment, it still needs a certain scale of ceremony to do it. And the imprint of the ceremony will definitely leave traces of the leader..."

  While speaking, Roger stretched out his hand to put on the sharp blade, and then his eyes flashed.

"I found it... I already know about the leader of the ceremony, that is, the identity of the mastermind of the night of the conspiracy. The princess of the moon—— Lani, one of the children born to King Vladagon and his first wife Lenala A child. Her name was hidden in the brand, and it is now certain that she led the night of the plot, just not sure why she did it."

   "Lani..."

"That's right, since this princess is the mastermind of the night of conspiracy, there must be traces of the curse of doomed death in her body. She lives in the magic tower behind the Kalia Walled City in the north of the academy, That's Lani's hometown - the hometown of the Kalia royal family, I think she should be there."

  After getting clues from Roger, Duanmuhuai and Milfie set off again to the Kalia Fortress, but...

   "Uh...Master Knight, the Princess of the Moon he mentioned, could it be..."

   "Well, I know, it seems that this meeting may not be too friendly."

   Facing Milfie's words, Duanmu Huai also looked helpless. Although they still don't know the situation here, Duanmu Huai has already figured out the relationship between several people.

  Obviously, the woman Renala who lives in Leyla Lukaria Academy of Magic is Lani's mother. Now it's all right, I waited for someone to rush to her mother's house, and even beat her mother up, no matter how I thought, the princess would not give them a good face.

   As for the relationship between Lani and her mother, there is no need to think about it. After all, in the second stage, Lani even used magic to create an incarnation of a queen to try to stop Duanmu Huai. It can be seen that the relationship between the two parties must be very good.

  Then the question is, what would a daughter think when she saw her mother, who was insane because of the loss of her child, being beaten up by a stranger who broke into the house?

   "...I think it would be nice if she didn't just throw us out."

  Milfie sighed helplessly, while Duanmuhuai sighed.

   "Thinking about it better, at least we didn't kill her, how much can we express our goodwill?"

   "No, no, sir, you didn't show any kindness when you hit her..."

   "What can I do, I didn't expect it to be like this at that time..."

Although Duanmuhuai regretted it, it was a pity that there was no regret medicine for him here, so he could only bite the bullet and came to the high tower behind the Kalia Walled City, where Duanmuhuai and Milfie also I met the legendary princess of the moon—— Lani.

   "Oh...it's you guys."

Sitting on the chair was a petite and lovely girl. She was wearing a big white hat and a white robe. Although she looked no different from a living person on the surface, but from the fact that she was wearing a large sleeve Looking at the four arms outstretched from the middle and the limbs of the puppet under the robe, it can be seen that Lani in front of her is just a puppet just like Augis.

   Right now, she is staring at Duanmu Huai, obviously not having a good impression.

   "What do you want when you come here? Stranger?...I shouldn't have sent you an invitation letter. Do you want to defeat me and take my power like you did with my mother?"

"Well………"

  Hearing the barbed sarcasm in Lani's words, Duanmu Huai was also speechless for a moment—anyway, he couldn't get rid of the blame for breaking into someone's house and beating his mother.

   "About this matter, I can only say sorry. I didn't mean it. Of course, I also know that it is useless to say these things now."

   After all, the person has already been beaten. Why do you need the police if an apology is useful? Are you right?

  Although Duanmu Huai is a judge himself, he is not afraid of this.

   Having said this, Duanmu Huai stared at Lani.

   "I came here just to find clues about the death rune."

"ah………"

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, Lani's eyes became colder and colder.

"It seems that you have really investigated a lot... That's right, I am the witch Lani. I once stole part of the death rune, and after a ceremony, I turned it into a black knife for killing gods—killing Godwin. It was indeed my doing. I know why you came here, but what you are looking for is not here. I have killed and abandoned the body I was born with... and the scar of the death rune is engraved there physically."

   "So, where is that body?"

"snort."

   Facing Duanmu Huai's question, Lani snorted softly.

  "...Why do I have to tell you? I don't hide the past, and I don't regret it, but I won't be willing to give alms when someone begs. The curse mark you are looking for is not here, and that's all I have to say. Now, get out of here."

"Well………"

  Hearing Lani's merciless drive away, Milfie was a little uneasy, and Duanmuhuai also shook his head helplessly. If this is placed in the game, the reputation of this NPC is at least at the beginning of the cold start. It is not bad if he does not run into hostility, but even so, he will not just shrink back. After all, for Duanmu Huai, Death Rune is his most One of the things I wanted to find.

   "Sorry, I had to get the death rune."

   "Oh? So what are you going to do?"

   Lani raised her head and stared at Duanmuhuai.

   "Do you want to use brute force to make me submit? Just like treating my mother? It doesn't matter if you want to do it, but the power of the witch Lani is not so easily defeated."

  While speaking, Lani slowly raised her finger, and a dazzling light began to emerge from her fingertips. Star-like brilliance appeared around Lani, and a surge of magic power surged up and spread to the surroundings. Obviously, this is the rhythm of going to war if there is a disagreement.

"That was not what I meant."

Sensing the magical aura floating around Lani, Duanmuhuai also raised his hand in a hurry. If it was normal, he would have hit her. It's a pity that Duanmuhuai just beat her mother before, and he was not justified, so this Facing Lani later, we still need to discuss it to some extent.

   "I understand very well that there is no free lunch in the world, and I don't expect you to agree to my conditions as long as I ask, so... can we make a deal?"

   "... what deal?"

   "If you need me to do something, I can help you do it. Instead, I hope you can tell me where the curse scar is...how?"

  “…………”

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's proposal, Lani was silent for a moment.

   "I do need someone to help me with some things, but... a person like you who has no loyalty at all, is it trustworthy?"

   "Trust is not a prerequisite for our transactions."

   Duanmuhuai shook his head.

   "I really won't show loyalty and trust to you, but as a transaction, our mutual interests are the same... I will help you with things, and you will pay me. I think this is enough."

  While talking, Duanmu Huai stared at Lani, this was his last compromise, and it is not impossible to give up. Whatever the judge likes, you have to give it, or you have to give it if you don’t. If Lani still chooses to refuse, even if she is not straightforward, Duanmu Huai will have to convince others with reason.

   "Not loyalty, but transaction..."

  Hearing this, Lani stared at Duanmuhuai, thought for a long time, and then nodded.

"...It's okay, I don't hate this kind of straightforward relationship. Besides, if what I did brought you here...it's not a kind of fate. Well, I promise you to replace me Do things. First of all, I want you to go to the Eternal City Nokronn and join a half-wolf warrior named Blazer to find out the secret treasure hidden in the Eternal City. As for the details, after arriving in the Eternal City , you can ask him. I have already written the location of the entrance on this map."

   While speaking, Lani waved her hand, and then a map fell into Duanmu Huai's hands.

   "Okay, you can go, I hope you can bring good news next time."

   After saying this, Lani closed her eyes, obviously not planning to talk to the two of them anymore.

  Although the process was not smooth, Duanmuhuai got further clues about the dead rune anyway. As for the task Lani sent her, it didn't matter to Duanmuhuai.

   After all, isn’t the chain mission like this every time the player plays the game?

   To get A, so go to B, and then B will give you the task CDE, after completion, B asks you to go to F to get the key to open the door, and then F says that the key was stolen by G...

  MMP, if this is the case in reality, then you will beat someone.

  Of course, if Duanmuhuai made the charming little loli character in the game, it is estimated that being cute and coquettish would be enough to get Lani to talk.

  Unfortunately, in front of me is a Charm 1...

   It’s hopeless, let’s do the mission.
