Chapter 229: The Missing Ring


Ghosts fall into dreams, this is such a strange way of getting along with mothers and daughters Lyudmila was stunned for a moment before taking Nikita's words, "Well, then your mother can't be considered dead."

"If the physical body is gone, and you become a ghost mage with no weight or body temperature, you can't be considered alive in my opinion.

"But your mother is still alive."

"I'm sorry, but the ghost is a spirit creature that usually lives in the spirit world rather than the main material plane, which is the usual sense of the human world, Mira, are you really interested in discussing the necromancy with me," Nikita looked at the female ranger strangely.

Lyudmila hurriedly waved her hand, now she knew why Nikita was so bland about her mother's death, people's "death" was not at all the same as ordinary people's concepts, she couldn't get consensus from the other party, so she turned her eyes to Roland.

In fact, Roland doesn't have much of an impression of "mother".

After all, he was a time-traveler, and the mother of the main child had been dead for many years when he occupied this body, but under Lyudmila's expectant gaze, he still tried to search for his memories and say as much about the past as possible to satisfy her.

"Mother is a gentle and beautiful woman, of course, in the minds of all children, mother is gentle and beautiful, if you want to say a special impression, probably the fire in her hand."

"Fire in your hand, your mother is also an arcane spellcaster," Nikita asked curiously.

"No, she was a sorcerer, and I didn't understand how she used that mysterious power at the time, but I remember that she often performed magic tricks on me, and a black flame would come out of my palm, so I still remember that image to this day, but unfortunately I didn't inherit my mother's talent as a sorcerer."

Roland shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands self-deprecatingly, and then asked Lyudmila: "I know you are not usually so sentimental, and stepping back on this land of birth reminds you of your father who has been dead for many years" Lyudmila nodded and said faintly: "I do think about Igor, when I was a child, he often carried me around this street, I still remember my father's hand was very large, very strong, wearing a ring forged in pure gold on the middle finger of his right hand, I like the smooth and cool black gem on the ring face, Igor often said that when I grow up, give me that legendary ring as a dowry." ” "Ha Legend Ring, oh Roland, you're so lucky, both people and money" Veronica complained inappropriately and got a burst of chestnuts, covering her head and shrinking back.

"Mira, what reminds you of these past events" Nikita captures the root of Lyudmila's mood change.

"It's the ring."

Lyudmila lowered her eyes, not wanting her friends to see the tears in her eyes, "Fifteen years ago, the dragon king Mars and the orc army attacked the fortress of Kitland, which almost led to the fall of the city, my father Igor died heroically in that battle, my mother took me to claim my father's body, he looked fine, seemed to be sleeping, the military judge transferred his relics to his mother, everything else was missing, except for the Ring of the Legendary Titan." ” "Of course, my mother refused to stop there, and asked the military judge to investigate the matter strictly and recover my father's relics, at first the military judge claimed that the ring was taken by the enemy, but this is illogical, otherwise why didn't the other party take away the other magical equipment on my father's body" "It's really illogical, and it's mostly a ghost insider."

Veronica whispered.

"My mother thought the same way, and then went to the military judge three times to ask about it, and the other party tried every means to shirk it, and was very impatient, and then she had to make explicit hints to my mother, trying to force her to be her lover, otherwise she would not bother to trace the whereabouts of the ring."

"You know Genia's temper, she slapped the man twice on the spot, and went to court to accuse him of dereliction of duty, but she did not get the fair sentence she wanted, and was countersued for defamation, and the court demanded that she apologize publicly to the military judge, and if she refused, her pension would be broken."

"Genia couldn't swallow this breath, she would rather die than apologize, she had no pension, and she was suppressed and threatened by the military judges in the city, and she couldn't even find a decent job, so she had to leave her hometown with her young me and go to the south to ask for a living, you all know."

Lyudmila wiped the corners of her reddened eyes and raised her head to barely show a smile: "Originally, I didn't want to talk about these old things, but when I entered the city in the morning, I saw a familiar guy, vaguely the military judge who persecuted me and my mother back then. ” Roland quickly went through the people he had seen in the morning in his mind, and then locked on the most suspicious person.

"It's Sergey" "That's right, it's the villain," Lyudmila gritted her teeth, and after a long time she continued with indignation: "What shocked me even more was his son Oleg, who wore a pure gold ring on his hand, almost identical to my father's, except for the lack of the black gem, which is probably not a coincidence. ” "Of course it's not a coincidence," Veronica sneered, "Sergei was in charge of managing the martyr's relics in the first place, how could he not be tempted when he saw the legendary ring on your father's hand, since he was greedy for ink, how could he really help your mother find the whereabouts of the ring, it was nothing more than a thief shouting to catch a thief and pretending." ” Vigrav stood up suddenly, unable to hide his anger: "Miss Lyudmila, I need your permission to report this scandal about Sergei to Lord Beowulf, I believe that Lord Beowulf will be able to give you justice."

Lyudmila shook her head slightly: "I haven't figured this out yet, don't make a noise." ” Nikita frowned: "Why are you willing to let that villain go" "No, of course I want revenge The problem is that I have no proof that it was indeed Sergei who stole my father's ring, that ring is not exactly the same as I remember, where did the black gem go" Her words were a little incoherent, and most of the people couldn't understand them, only Roland understood her conflicted feelings.

"The ring on Oleg's hand has a magical aura, but I can assure you that it is definitely not a legendary-level magic ring."

Lyudmila let out a long sigh: "This is what I can't figure out the most, wouldn't it be embarrassing if the ring on Oleg's hand was only similar in shape, and in the end it turned out that I was wrong." ” Roland held his chin in deep thought, this matter was indeed a bit tricky.

Veronica gave Nikita a look, took Lyudmila's hand and stood up: "These things can't come up with a result for a while, let's go out shopping, it's good for you to change your mood." ” Lyudmila hesitated for a moment, and was finally taken away by the two female companions.

"Mr.

Roland, Miss Lyudmila's affairs really can't be reported to the lord," Viglaf asked Roland in a low voice.

"I know what you're thinking, but Mira doesn't want to get caught up in the whirlpool of high-level struggles, and I don't want her to be used by others, so I'll find out about this in my own way."

"Understood, I'll keep my mouth shut."

Roland drank the cooled tea in his cup in one gulp, got up and put on his coat, and said to Vigraf: "Let's go out for a walk, the tournament is about to start, since you are interested in competing, it is still necessary to familiarize yourself with the competition venue in advance." ”:
