deceased

Gregory, who had remained silent from the beginning to the end, suddenly stood up straight.

The carriage came in a hurry, and before the driver stopped, the door was opened, and a gray-haired man about 60 years old jumped out of the carriage holding a cane.Seeing that Hansen squeezed a cold sweat.

"Master Gregory!" The gray-haired man rushed in front of Gregory, looked him up and down, confirmed that he was safe and sound, and then saluted, "I kept you waiting." He paused, doubtful. , "I received a notice from the Marshal, I heard that you... have lost your memory?"

Gregory nodded and apologized, "What should I call you?"

The man was greatly shocked, and he said after a while, "I am Ford, Mrs. Lillian's personal butler."

Gregory asked, "Mrs. Lillian?"

Ford was almost desperate, "She is your mother, master!"

Gregory pursed his lips.Despite amnesia, it is still unacceptable to forget one's biological mother.

Ford wiped his face, and turned his gaze to the girl with the pink bow beside him, "Who is this?"

Gregory said: "She is Miss Monica Gulaba, and I am inviting her to our house."

Ford hurriedly saluted and said, "Hello. It's an honor to meet you."

Mundra nodded.Necromancers are a group of solitary and arrogant guys. They rarely meet, let alone salute. Nodding is already a very polite behavior in his cognition.

But that wasn't enough for Ford.He has been in the Danya family for so long, except for the big figures who can really influence the empire, he has never been so arrogant to him.He felt slightly displeased.

Gregory introduced Hansen again and said, "This is Captain Hansen of Marshal Hayden's bodyguard."

"Ah, hello." Ford's face was full of gratitude, "It is thanks to Marshal Hayden that our Master Gregory returned safely this time."

Hansen smiled and said, "It's easy."

Ford said: "Someday, Madam will come to thank you in person."

Hansen said: "The marshal will be very happy."

Because the enthronement ceremony was about to begin, they exchanged a few words and then went home.Mundra got into the carriage with Gregory, and Ford sat outside with the driver.

Watching the scenery on both sides of the window fly backwards quickly, Mundra wished to go faster.

"When are we going to attend the enthronement ceremony?" He looked at Gregory expectantly.

Gregory said, "I'm not sure about this."

Mundra tilted his head to look at him.Due to his movement, the originally crooked bow was completely vertical.

Gregory said: "You know, I have lost my memory, so I have to ask my elders about many things before I can decide."

Sure enough, it's faster to go by yourself.Mundra turned his head and looked out of the window. The Van Riel in front of him was no longer the prosperous and noisy imperial capital when he left, but he still recognized the main streets. "Do you know where the enthronement ceremony is held?"

Gregory shook his head.

Mundra pressed her face against the window, staring out.Knowing that Heidein is in this city, but not being able to meet him right away, this feeling is really terrible.Perhaps, he can let the skeleton army look for it?But in this way, the armband must be removed, and it will be discovered soon.

Gregory said, "You really want to attend the ceremony?"

Mundra nodded.

"Because... Marshal Hayden?" Gregory asked.

Mundella said: "No, I like magicians."

Gregory said, "Do you want to see Head Olivia?"

Mundra said: "I want to see Heiden." He made no secret of his purpose.

Gregory said, "Oh."

Mundella suddenly turned to stare at him and said, "Do you remember Olivia?"

Gregory said: "Hansen introduced it on the way."

Mundella said, "But you don't remember your mother."

"Maybe he didn't expect that I don't even remember my own mother." Gregory sighed.

Mundra continued to look at the street.

The carriage drove all the way into the interior of the Danya family.

Although the fire destroyed half of the buildings in Van Riel, the Danya family's mansion happened to belong to the other half.

Ford got out of the car and opened the door for them.

Gregory got out of the carriage first, and then stretched out his hand to Mundra.

Mundella raised her skirt, took his hand, and jumped off the carriage.That's his new research finding that jumping off is much safer than walking while wearing a skirt.

Ford silently turned his face away.The young master really lost his memory, that's why he brought back such an uneducated young lady.

The door was pushed open, and two maids came out surrounded by a beautiful woman.

"Ma'am." Ford stood up straight.

Mrs. Lillian held out her hands to Gregory, "Welcome back, Gregory."

Gregory froze on the spot for a while before hugging her in response.

Mrs. Lillian touched his head, then looked at Mundra and said, "This is..."

"She is Miss Monica Gulaba. I invited her to my house." Gregory was obviously more familiar with Mundra, and his body leaned slightly towards him.

Madam Lillian opened her arms and said, "Welcome, Monica."

Mundra stood stiffly.

Gregory said to Mrs. Lillian, "She's a little shy."

That's not shy, it's rude!Ford sneered beside him.

Madam Lilian withdrew her hand and said with a smile: "Girls are always cautious in strange places, but I believe we will get to know each other soon. Many people have left the imperial capital recently, and I can't even find friends to drink afternoon tea with. The arrival of Monica really solved a big worry for me."

Mundra looked at Gregory and said, "When are we going to the ceremony?"

Gregory said: "I want to have a private talk with... mother first. Don't worry, I will try my best to fulfill your wish."

Mrs. Lillian looked at him and then at him again, with a satisfied smile on her lips.

Ford escorted Mundra into the guest room, while Gregory and Mrs. Lillian came to the study.

Mrs. Lillian closed the door, then smiled and said, "I know you have lost your memory, but don't worry. I believe everything will be fine. Odis is gone, and you will be the undoubted heir of the Danya family."

Gregory raised his lips slightly, "I don't have amnesia."

"what?"

Mundra sat on the bed, fingers kept digging at the armband.From the moment he entered the door, he seemed to take it off, but Rhodes didn't know how to hold it back. He worked hard for a long time, only scratching one after another on his arm.

If you can't take off the armband, you can't use undead magic, and if you can't use undead magic, you can't summon the little skeleton to find Hydein.

Mundra scratched the bed dejectedly.

If only Rhodes was here.

It was the first time he missed someone so intensely.

But Rhodes couldn't feel it at all.

He just feels tired now.

It had been five or six days since Hayden's sword had escaped, and the wound on his ear was scarred, but Hussey's pursuit continued.

Rhodes sneaked around the border city before giving up the idea of ​​breaking through.Hussein obviously spent a lot of effort to hunt him down. Portraits, magic circles, troops...almost all available power was used.

What did he do wrong to end up like this?

Rhodes asked himself more than once.

Perhaps at the beginning, he shouldn't have concealed his identity as a necromancer and become some damn court magician, so that he would not be involved in the internal disputes of the imperial family, and he would not offend the future of the empire by standing on the wrong team. heir.

Or maybe he shouldn't be held hostage by Queen Samantha, he didn't leave when it was time to leave, and finally bumped into the Pope.

Of course, the most likely reason is because of Mundra, he is the most wanted criminal of the Banding Empire, no matter how embarrassed he is, he should not want to join forces with him.

He hid in the haystack, gnawing on dry food with difficulty.

The sound of soldiers' footsteps came from outside, sapping what little appetite he had left.He put away the dry food and used the earth escape technique to get into the soil.The east has been completely blocked, and he can only count on the west now.I hope Ciro will lose sight of the other and relax the defense there.

However, if you want to go to the west, you must first pass through Van Riel, which is located in the center of the Banding Empire.

Perhaps, a detour?At least bypass Mundra.

Rhodes thought about this question seriously as he moved forward.

"I have excellent perception of the water element, but Otis' father instigated grandpa to let me enter the Knight Academy." Gregory said slowly, "Look, I remember everything clearly."

"Thank you, Goddess of Light." Mrs. Lillian hugged Gregory in comfort, and then asked in confusion, "Then why are you pretending to have amnesia?"

Gregory said: "Because I have to figure out some things. For example, who wants to kill me."

Mrs. Lilian shook her body, looked at him in surprise and said, "Kill you? God! Which crazy guy is after you? Oh, no, I have to tell my father-in-law that you are the first heir of the Danya family, I believe He'll track it down!"

Gregory shook his head and said, "No, I will do it myself."

"I don't want my child to be in any danger." Mrs. Lillian looked at him worriedly.

Gregory smiled slightly, patted her hand on his arm, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry. I've already returned to Van Riel, I don't think they dare to show up blatantly again."

Mrs. Lillian still didn't recover from the shock, "It's unbelievable! What happened to you in Putra? Why did you refuse Miss Freya's proposal when you were with the Gulaba family's lady?" Marriage? She is the young lady of the Richard family, and her status is much better than that of the upstarts like Gulaba!"

Gregory said: "But the Richard family is more than just Miss Freya. But the property of the Gulaba family may be inherited by Monica alone."

Mrs. Lillian said: "You mean the little girl today?" She is very clear about the concept of the property of the Gulaba family, it is definitely an astronomical figure!

"No. Monica is dead." Gregory said calmly.

Mrs. Lillian was confused by this series of answers. "Then who is she?"

"He is..." Necromancer.Seeing Mrs. Lillian's worried expression, Gregory decided to hide the answer for the time being.He didn't want his plan to fall short because of his mother's fuss.He said: "It may be a thief, trying to pretend to be Monica to cheat."

"This is horrible!" exclaimed Mrs. Lillian.

Gregory said: "So I want to keep him by my side and see if he has any connection with those killers."

Madam Lilian shook her head and said, "How can you keep such a dangerous person by your side?"

Gregory smiled and said, "Don't worry. He has uses beyond your imagination. At least Marshal Hayden is also very interested in him."

"Marshal Hayden?" Her eyes lit up when she heard the name, "Yes, we have to go to the door to thank him in person. I heard that he saved you."

"You can say that." Strictly speaking, the fake Miss Monica was his savior.He said: "But the fact that I don't have amnesia must be kept secret. Don't even tell Ford."

Mrs. Lillian asked, "Why?"

"The patriarch didn't allow me to go back to Van Riel. If I didn't lose my memory, I would be disobeying the family's orders this time," Gregory said.

Mrs. Lilian covered her mouth and said, "Yes. Eunuch will be very angry."

"But now I have amnesia, don't I?" Gregory smiled, "And Marshal Hayden sent me back, so I can't be blamed."

Mrs. Lillian laughed, "Yes. No one should blame a child who has forgotten the past for wanting to seek the warmth of a home."

Gregory stroked the desk lightly, and said in a low voice, "Now is the time when the family needs me the most, and it is also the time when I need the family the most."

Mrs. Lillian said: "It's just the right time to come back. I heard that Ortis is frozen in ice. He may be dead, or he may still be unconscious. Only a necromancer can revive him."

"Necromancer?" Gregory frowned.

Mundra waited until evening, but Gregory did not appear.Only Ford came to spread the word that Gregory had been summoned by Murdoch, the old patriarch of the Danya family, and might not return until very late.

Mundra decided to give up waiting and go out to try his luck.

Hearing that Miss Monica was going to a banquet, Ford was slightly taken aback.He gently reminded: "This kind of dance requires an invitation letter to enter. Maybe you should wait for the young master to come back and ask him if he needs a female companion."

Mundra said: "Can I participate as the female partner of the person who has the invitation letter?"

Ford said, "Of course."

Mundra said, "I'll go."

"But the young master hasn't come back yet..." Ford said.Although he doesn't like her, a visitor is a visitor, and he is obliged to remind this brash lady from the country some common sense, so as not to have a negative impact on the Danya family's reputation.

Mundella whimsically said: "There will always be someone left alone."

Ford: "..." Did she go to the dance or to rob?
