Chapter 71 He? (asking for monthly ticket) Facing his sister's concern, Lumian shook his head: "No." He glanced around and said, "Let's talk about it after we go in." When they reached a place near the stove, he first briefly mentioned the exploration process of himself and Ryan and the others, and then told his sister that if Mrs. Pualis came to attack them, she must not hesitate but surrender immediately and betray the three outsiders. Based on what he had experienced and seen in the castle, Lumian didn't think that the brother and sister could defeat Mrs. Puaris together, and they might not be able to handle that "midwife". Aurore listened quietly and couldn't help laughing: "From a rational point of view, your countermeasures are indeed the best, but it makes me feel weird, as if I have become a villain in a novel, and not even the main villain, the charming one." "What's important is the result," Lumian stressed to his sister. "In your words, it means enduring humiliation, shouldering heavy responsibilities, preserving a useful body, and waiting to show its value in the future." "..." Aurora couldn't help but raise her hand to support her forehead, "Have I taught you too many weird things?" “Yes.” Lumian nodded “sincerely”. Aurore rolled her eyes.
"Okay, I understand. I won't fight with Mrs. Pualis unless it comes to the most critical moment. “Just now, Mrs. Pualis found that the alarm was triggered and wanted to leave. I did not forcibly stop her, but just showed my reluctance and chatted with her for almost a minute longer. "Well, tell me the details of your search." She walked to the dining table and sat down, pretending to listen, while paying attention to her surroundings to guard against Mrs. Pualis coming over with anger and questioning her. Lumian pulled out a chair from the other side of the dining table and told the whole story of the exploration and the battle process. As she listened, Aurore's expression gradually became a little strange, and more and more strange. "What's wrong?" Lumian noticed his sister's abnormality. Aurore thought for a while, then asked with a strange expression: "There is a photo of a man in Mrs. Pualis's bedroom, and that man looks similar to her. Is he suspected to be her brother?" "Well, those three outsiders said it might be a missing member of the Rockfort family named Plitt." Lumian relayed Ryan and the others' words, including "Dantiism" and a large number of illegitimate children. He added at the end: "According to the investigation of the three outsiders, there is no such person as Puaris in the Rockfort family." Aurore nodded slightly and exhaled: "Then I can basically confirm that my guess is correct." The strange expression on her face did not fade away, but became more obvious. "What guess?" Lumian looked puzzled. Aurore glanced at him and said: "Perhaps, Mrs. Pualis is the missing Plit." "Ah?" Lumian was shocked. "They have a boy and a girl...Mrs. Pualis even gave birth to two children!" "Who knows if she gave birth to the child herself? Maybe the administrator gave birth to the child?" Aurore sneered and retorted, "Even if it was really Mrs. Pualis's child, it doesn't mean anything. In the world of mysticism, everything is possible. Think about it, if a man like Louis Lund can give birth to a child, then it's not impossible for Pritt to become a woman." “That’s true in theory, but…” Lumian still couldn’t accept it.
Aurore smiled teasingly: “The reason why I dare to make such a guess, and the three outsiders don’t have similar inspiration, is because I have heard of, no, witnessed something. "Do you remember which adjacent pathway is 'Hunter'?" "'Assassin,'" Lumian answered without hesitation. He was initially attracted by this name which was obviously better than "Hunter". "In our organization, er, the Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society, there was a man who really liked to be an 'Assassin' and chose this path." Aurore said with a strange expression, "Later, at a gathering, he told us with a melancholy and troubled look on his face that the potion that an 'Assassin' needs to take when reaching Sequence 7 is called 'Witch'." "'Witch'?" As soon as Lumian heard the name of the potion, he had a premonition of what was going to happen next. "Yes, 'witch'. In the world of mysticism, 'wizard' and 'witch' are two completely different concepts. You always confused them before, and you always said I was a witch. I felt weird when you heard that." Aurore took the opportunity to teach me, "Obviously, if you drink the 'witch' potion, you will become a witch. When you act like a witch, your body will also be completely transformed into a woman." Hiss... Lumian took a deep breath, feeling extremely fortunate that the first material he obtained was the "Hunter" Beyonder characteristic. If he had gotten something related to "Assassin", given his eagerness to not want to make a choice, he would have most likely embarked on a path of no return. "What happened next? Did that person drink?" he couldn't help but ask. Aurore smiled and replied: "He was in a dilemma for a long time. He didn't want to become a woman, but he also didn't want to stay at Sequence 8. Until someone advised him, 'Life is short, why not give it a try?' "I met him again at a party afterwards. No, it was her at that time, a very beautiful and charming woman." "..." Lumian was speechless for a moment. Aurore looked at him with a smile and said: "After that, when you reach Sequence 5, if you cannot obtain Sequence 4 materials from the Hunter pathway, you can consider Sequence 4 from the Witch pathway. Yes, the Assassin pathway is also called the Witch pathway..." She looked like she was enjoying the fun and didn't mind if things got any bigger. "Witch"... Lumian deeply felt that the name "Assassin" was really misleading. The world of occultism is full of dangers! He quickly brought the topic back on track: "It seems that Mrs. Pualis may really be the playboy Plitt." Even an "assassin" can turn into a "witch", and a method that allows a man to have children can most likely also allow a man to become a woman. Aurore nodded and looked out the window warily: "I suspect that Madam Pualis also turned into a woman after reaching a certain sequence, and had to say goodbye to her family by disappearing to avoid being discovered by the authorities. Well, according to that mysterious lady, the power bestowed by the gods can also be divided into sequences. "Her abnormal path should also include promoting fertility, utilizing life, and controlling the power of the dead." "Using life and controlling the dead" was what she deduced from the battle between Lumian and others and the "midwife". This is also consistent with the performance of "Lady Night" in the other world being followed by many undead spirits, and that one looks very much like Lady Pualis. Having said this, Aurore suddenly said "uh".
"What's wrong?" Lumian asked carefully. I wonder if my sister has thought of some scary truth again? Aurore frowned and looked at her brother and said: "During afternoon tea, Mrs. Pualis suddenly said that love is hard to understand. She hoped that he would die because he made a mistake, but when he was really facing death, she couldn't help but save him and refused to tell him. "I was very confused at the time, but I didn't pay much attention to it. Now that I think about it, did she say that on purpose for some hidden reason?" Lumian was also confused: "She saved people. When did she save people?" Suddenly, he stopped and looked at Aurora. The brother and sister both recalled the other side of the world, where "Mrs. Night" took away the undead and indirectly saved them. “But that was something that happened in the last cycle…” Lumian was about to deny it, but couldn’t continue. He and Aurore looked at each other and saw shock and fear in each other's eyes. If that was what Mrs. Pualis was referring to, it meant that she could retain her memories in the loop, at least part of them! "No way..." Aurora muttered to herself, "Forget it, let's just take it as the truth. It's better to think that the enemy is more powerful than to be careless." Lumian agreed, and then thought of something: "Aurore, uh, sister, considering that Mrs. Pualis might have been a man, who was the person she fell in love with?" "I didn't do anything wrong. It was you who peeped at Louis Lund giving birth. You are the one that Puaris loves." Aurore retorted in response. Lumian said subconsciously: “Maybe she thinks I was ordered by you. "I don't usually have much contact with her. She only teased me when I caught her having an affair with the parish priest. You discussed literary works and popular trends with her from time to time, and occasionally went to her house to borrow her pony to ride." "Eh..." Aurora raised her voice and showed a look of disgust, "Then she still introduced marriage partners to me? Didn't you say that none of them were good, or even bad?" Lumian thought for a moment and said: "Maybe she wants to use this method to destroy your interest in men, and then slowly seduce you to lean towards her..." "What weird things do you usually watch?" Aurore glared at her brother unhappily. Lumian was not only right, but also confident: "Your novel. "You have a novel with a similar plot." "Really..." Aurora fell into deep thought. After a while, she looked out the window and said: "It's been so long, and Madam Pualis hasn't come to trouble us yet, and the cycle hasn't restarted..." "Maybe she didn't want to kill those three outsiders. If these official investigators were killed, there might be even bigger troubles." Lumian speculated, "And she didn't know I was involved, so she didn't suspect you." The witness was dead, and no one else saw him. Aurore nodded slightly and said self-deprecatingly: "I've been waiting so long that I haven't had the mood to prepare dinner." Lumian suddenly had an inspiration: "How about I go to the castle and take a look?"
"Is the criminal returning to the scene?" Aurore laughed. Lumian nodded: "I'll go and see what's going on in the castle. Anyway, Mrs. Pualis shouldn't suspect me. "Oh, by the way, I haven't picked the tulips yet, so I can use the excuse that you want to make perfume to ask them for a few." On the surface, Aurore and Madame Puaris are friends, so there is nothing wrong with Lumian doing this. Aurore thought for a few seconds and said: “You can try, but wait a little longer. Now we can’t be completely sure that Mrs. Pualis won’t cause trouble. "Well, if you don't come back within half an hour, I'll go to the edge of the village and trigger the loop, and restart it directly." "Okay." Lumian agreed. ………… When he arrived at the administrator's castle again, the sun had already gone behind the mountains and the sky was filled with red clouds. Lumien walked through the garden and came to the open front door. He said to the male servant guarding there: "My sister Aurore is planning to make a perfume. I wonder if I could borrow some tulips from Mrs. Puaris?" The male servant in a red shirt and white trousers answered without any unusual response: "I'll go ask the lady." He quickly turned into the castle and came out after a while: "Madam said you can just go to the garden and pick them." You really don't doubt me? And, as if nothing had happened... Lumian didn't try to enter the castle, but walked into the garden and looked for tulips. When he saw the flowers, he also noticed a maid pruning the branches of a flower tree in the shadow nearby. As they passed each other, Lumian glanced casually at the maid. Suddenly, his gaze froze. The maid was in her forties, with brown hair and brown eyes, a pretty face and few wrinkles. She was exactly the "midwife" who had fought a fierce battle with Valentine and others and was eventually killed by Ryan! At this moment, she was standing next to Lumian, her face seemed to be shadowed by the flowers, plants and trees. PS: Please vote for me~ (End of this chapter)
