Picked up by the Protagonist of a Tormented! MC Novel

Earl Duin was happily preparing for the wedding, but he didn't know that his expectations were just extravagant wishes after all.

Soon it was the day before the wedding, just after nightfall, Xi Wei drove away all the servants who were going to try on the "wedding dress" for him, and drove away the worried Andrio along the way.

Earl Duin, who seemed to be a strict wife without a wife, had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

Xue Ji glanced at Xi Wei anxiously, then lowered her head, didn't hear anything for a while, then looked up again like a thief.

It happened to meet Xi Wei's eyes.

……

Xi Wei said with a cool tone, "You can say whatever you want."

Xue Ji didn't dare to say it at first, but she took a sneak peek at Kino who was still in a coma, clenched her fists, and said as if she was dead, "Master really wants to marry... marry that earl?"

One sentence almost didn't bite the tongue.

Xi Wei didn't answer, but asked instead, "Do you want me to marry that earl?"

When Xue Ji heard this, she immediately became indignant, "How is it possible, with the status of the master, how can he enter into a marriage contract with a mortal!"

"Then who do you want me to marry?"

Xue Ji suddenly felt a chill in her neck, as if if she didn't answer well, her life would be lost.

So the poor maid swallowed, and thought hard, "Master's partner must be the most loyal and reliable."

Xi Wei seemed to be quite satisfied with this answer, so he raised his chin, "Continue."

Xue Ji felt that the atmosphere had warmed up a bit, so she boldly continued, "It must be dedicated to the master wholeheartedly, and the most important thing must be the master's favorite!"

When it comes to the end, Xue Ji's confidence is getting stronger and stronger, and the more I think about it, the more I feel that this is the truth.

Xi Wei was stunned. Originally, he was just casually warning Xue Ji not to meddle in her own business, but who would have thought that the stubborn maid would really say something.

And, it seems to make sense.

Before that, Xi Wei had never considered the issue of a partner. Ye Sacheng's partner was like a joke. The front foot was a partner, and the back foot became an enemy.

But if it is a person who meets these conditions as Xue Ji said, maybe it is not necessarily suitable to be a partner.

So who is right?

Involuntarily, his eyes drifted to the bed beside him. Someone was sleeping like a pig with his mouth open, exhaling and inhaling.

Startled by his own thoughts, Xi Wei frowned, shook his head to get rid of this unreliable idea, but asked Xue Ji in a strange way, "If there is such a person, what would you do."

Xue Ji was stunned, "Of course it's for the master's happiness, I'm willing to do anything!"

"Remember your words."

The maid nodded half-understanding.

After saying this, Xi Wei went out with the pile of bridal gowns, not knowing what to do.

Xue Ji trembled, the master was so scary, he looked like he was going to tear someone into pieces, but the little master was cute.

Then Xue Ji lay down on the side of the bed to watch over Kino, and fell asleep unknowingly.

When Kino woke up, he didn't realize where he was for a long time. He scratched his head, sat up and stretched himself, feeling the abundant spiritual power in his mind and the surging magic power in his whole body, and he felt great.

Then he looked around and found that it was an unfamiliar environment, Xue Ji was sitting beside his bed and dozing off bit by bit.

His ignorant head cleared up little by little, and finally remembered that before he lost consciousness, Xi Wei drank a glass of something for himself. The aroma of the lake magnolia was so obvious that a fool would know what he drank.

Feeling his spiritual power and magic power that should have disappeared again, Kino's mood became complicated. He had no choice but to let Xi Wei do this for him.

It was just a vague guess at first, but now Kino is almost sure that Xi Wei must have recognized him, otherwise, how could the always cold and heartless protagonist disguise himself as a woman to find medicine for a stranger.

The more this happened, the more anxious I became.

Just as he was thinking wildly, someone pushed open the door, and Kino opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything, and everything he said seemed hypocritical.

It was Xi Wei who came in. His face was always pale, as if nothing could move him, and he didn't show anything when he saw that Kino woke up. He just pushed the blood girl to wake up the maid.

Xue Ji slept with a dazed expression on her face, she jumped up in shame when she saw her master's cold face, and reported like beans poured out of a bamboo tube, "Master, little...Kino is all normal and still asleep."

……

Kino, who was still "asleep", poked Xue Ji's arm speechlessly.

The maid froze and ran away on tiptoe.

Kino felt a little uncomfortable, he and Xi Wei were the only ones left in the room, Xi Wei didn't look at him, but was looking through something in the cabinet.

Kino opened his mouth a few times, but didn't know what to say.

Then Xi Wei seemed to have finished it, turned around and said, "What are you doing there? Tomorrow is Earl Duin's wedding."

"Wedding?" Kino was confused by the sudden jump of the topic, and then reacted, "What! Wedding! You want to marry that Earl of Rausch?!"

Xi Wei suddenly raised the corners of his lips, and Kino felt a chill.

"marry?"

Chino trembled, "I didn't say anything."

Xi Wei threw a piece of clothing on his face, and Kino tore it off in a hurry, and found that it was a normal men's clothing. Only then did he realize that he was only wearing shorts. No wonder he felt something was wrong.

"I don't want to hear that tomorrow's Magic Bulletin is the news of Earl Duin's wedding, so hurry up and put it on, otherwise tomorrow's bride will be given to you."

When Kino heard this, he couldn't care about anything else, whoever the countess wanted to be, anyway, it wasn't him, Kino.

The moon is dark and the wind is high at night, when murderers and arsonists.

Earl Doin was so excited that he couldn't sleep this time, when he suddenly heard the servants shouting "Fire! Fire!"

Andreo was so excited that he ran out without even thinking about putting on his shoes. The guards at night followed him and called the count to put on his shoes. However, Andreo stared at the direction where the flames were burning, lost his mind.

The fire burned for a whole night, and thanks to Xue Ji's alchemy potion, it couldn't be extinguished no matter how hard it was.

It wasn't until the next morning that people discovered that the Earl's Mansion, which was hung with red silk yesterday, was replaced with white gauze today.

So the rumors began to swirl.

When the fire was extinguished, there were no bones left in the yard of the future countess. The servants only found some fragments of clothes and a piece of precious blood jade, which looked even more bloody under the burning of the fire.

That piece of blood jade belonged to the future countess. People often saw her wearing it around her neck. Now the treasure is still there, but she was buried in the sea of ​​fire.

The people in Siwa Town have another conversation after dinner.

In the end, the news that Earl Duyin had killed his wife spread like wildfire. People mentioned that he was no longer yearning and envious.

Andrio held the blood jade in a daze for three days, and lost a lot of weight.

Loli, who hadn't seen Baba or "Mama" for three days, reached the limit of her patience, and angrily climbed onto Earl Duin's lap, grabbing the tender flesh on Andrio's cheek and acting coquettishly, " What about Ma Ma, Lori wants Ma Ma."

Earl Duin smiled bitterly, "Lou Li is good, Mama has gone far away."

Little Loli didn't know, so, "Then let's go find Mama."

Earl Duin stroked his daughter's hair, and listening to her immature words, he suddenly became enlightened.

"Lou Li is right, Ma Ma is gone, we will go find her and get her back."

Then Andreo had someone find a few demon dogs, and then took out the box that once contained the Millennium Lake Magnolia, let the demon dogs remember the smell, and then let it out.

From this day on, demon hunting dogs bearing the Earl's Mansion mark roamed around Siwa Town.

However, he was doomed to be in vain. At this time, on the path hundreds of miles away from Siwa Town, the combination of two teenagers and a beautiful woman seemed a bit weird.

Xi Wei was still dragging the Shen Yuan epee and walked slowly.

Xue Ji worried, "Can this method really fool them?"

Kino thought for a while, then shook his head, "After all, there is no corpse. When Earl Duin recovers, he will understand that this is just a hoax."

"Then what should we do?" The maid became nervous.

Kino said, "That's why Xi Wei kept the blood jade. In terms of value, that blood jade is more than three thousand-year-old magnolias. It can be regarded as compensation for the Earl."

Otherwise, Andreo, who was short of money and man, would have to go crazy.

The less trouble the better.

Kino quite understands Xi Wei's thinking, but they don't understand that not all things in the world can be solved by equivalent exchange.

Chino didn't ask Xi Wei if he recognized him, and he didn't ask about the change of the protagonist's appearance. They seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding, and they avoided this question tacitly. They just got along as naturally as they did when they were children. As always, it never changed.

Not far behind them, two men followed side by side, and the brown-haired man asked, "Why do you want me to teach him Shen Yuan's seven moves? sword."

Asir said, "Xia Zuo, trust me, you won't regret it."

Xia Zuo put his hands behind his back, "You care too much about Evelyn's child, even his caretaker?"

"Xia Zuo, you don't understand. I don't want to repay Kino because he saved him, but I have a vague premonition that the survival of this era has a great relationship with him."

Asir doesn't want the world he and Xia Zuo worked so hard to guard will not escape the curse of fate in the near future.
