Train to Another World

In the windward city, the city lord's mansion.

Kailo is sitting in the study room of the City Lord's Mansion, handling government affairs. Suddenly he felt a palpitation in his heart. He glanced at the noon sun outside the window and recalled for a moment that he seemed to have started handling government affairs when the sun went down yesterday.

Kailo rubbed his eyes, as if he had stayed up all night again. He had heard before that if a person did not sleep for a long time, he would lose his will and even risk sudden death. There were many cruel city lords who liked to use this method to torture their enemies.

Covering the animal skin document on the table and putting down his pen, Kailo decided to take a nap before getting up for dinner. On the way to the bedroom, Kailo saw the servant repairing the lock on the storage room door out of the corner of his eye.

He couldn't help but think of Alexander and wondered where he and Lady Storm were now. Immediately, an unknown fire rose. That idiot, even though he couldn't bear to drink pure water, he actually pried open the warehouse and took two bottles.

If it was given to Ms. Storm as a greeting gift, then that would be fine. But when Ms. Storm refused to accept it, the fool actually drank it himself!

Suddenly, Kailuo remembered the meeting gift that his family had given to Master Huang Shiren. Except for the meditation method and those few spells that were accepted, the rest of the materials were not appreciated by Master Huang Shiren, so they were all given directly to that idiot Alexander.

If he remembered correctly, those supplies were temporarily stored in a warehouse in Windward City. Kailo quickly walked out of the city lord's mansion. After working an all-night shift, his throat was so dry that he felt uncomfortable. He happened to go to the idiot's supplies to get two bottles of water to moisten his throat.

When we arrived outside the warehouse, we were heavily guarded by soldiers sent by the family. After all, these supplies belong to Alexander, and Kailo is about to think of a reason to convince him to put himself in them.

But what was unexpected was that when the guards saw that it was him who was coming, they bowed and let him go. Kailo frowned when he saw this. This was Alexander's "private property". Even if he was his biological brother, he would not let anyone in without asking.

Entering the warehouse, Kailo noticed a noise inside. He was a little confused. Why was there someone else here? But considering the reaction of the guards outside, could it be Ryan?

Kailo, who strode into the warehouse, did not expect to see an unexpected person. That was Poirot, the old butler of the Bonaparte family. But what Kailo didn't expect was that in addition to the supplies, there was also a special open space in the middle of the warehouse, and a coffin was placed in the center of the open space.

Poirot, on the other hand, was carefully maintaining the coffin with grease to prevent it from cracking due to dryness. Yes, the coffin is made of wood. In this world, logs are rarer than water. Therefore, those who can use coffins are generally only the patriarchs of the Bonaparte family.

Most of the ordinary family members are mummified or cremated and buried in the family tomb.

Now a coffin suddenly appears here, is this? !

The old butler also heard Kailo's footsteps. He turned around, raised his eyebrows, and asked Kailo with a hint of sadness: "Does Master Kailo have any news to convey to me?"

Kailo shook his head: "No news, I just came over to take a look, this coffin?"

The old housekeeper nodded: "It turns out that the time has not come yet. Now, I won't hide it from you. This coffin is prepared for Master Alexander."

"What? What's going on?!"

The old butler put down the oil can and began to wipe the coffin carefully with a fine velvet cloth: "Master Kailuo, do you still remember the prophecy that Master Alexander has been talking about since he was a child?"

"The prophecy that he will become the apprentice of a transcendent? Although I always thought it was just what the wizard said to fool him, or simply his imagination, but I didn't expect that he actually became the apprentice of a transcendent. , even if that transcendent being is a gerbil.”

The old housekeeper explained: "That is not a simple prophecy, nor is it the original prophecy."

"What's the meaning?"

"The wizard does indeed owe a favor to our Bonaparte family, but it is not the master who owes him a favor, but his ancestors."

"You mean the first Bonaparte?"

"Yes, our ancestor was just a commoner back then. While out collecting, he found a seriously injured wizard. He rescued the wizard and took care of him until the injury healed.

After the wizard recovered, he asked his ancestor what kind of reward he wanted. The ancestors back then were just like Master Alexander, who wanted to become a wizard apprentice. Unfortunately, under the test of the wizard, the ancestor did not have the potential to become a transcendent, so the wizard could only ask the ancestor to change his request.

The second request made by the ancestor was that he wanted to become the most prominent nobleman in the world, and that his family should last forever. It happened that the wizard was proficient in prophecy, so he promised three prophecies.

The ancestor used the first prophecy at that time. The wizard asked the ancestor to go to a place where he could meet the future king. As long as he could closely follow the king's steps, the ancestor's request would be fulfilled.

So under the guidance of the wizard, he went to a wilderness, where he encountered robbers and Lady Storm. When Lady Storm killed all the robbers and rescued the ancestors, at that moment, only the ancestors and Lady Storm were left in that area. It was clear who the future king would be. "

Kailo was suddenly startled: "So the ancestor persevered in his proposal and the ancestral precept he left behind?"

The old butler nodded: "Yes, what could be a closer relationship than becoming a member of the king's family? Moreover, the ancestor was really attracted by the style of Ms. Storm, and his infatuation was also true."

Kylo looked at the old butler suspiciously: "How do you know?"

The old butler coughed awkwardly: "The ancestor has a bad memory, so he has the habit of writing memos. And the family library is my..."

"Grandpa Poirot, you peeked at the ancestor's diary?"

"Uh... The ancestor is famous for his broad mind, he shouldn't blame me. Then I said just now that after the ancestor settled down, I asked the wizard for the second prophecy.

According to the prophecy, the ancestor found a relic and obtained a lot of property, weapons and armor, so it took only one generation to go from a commoner to a noble.

But being a noble was still far from what the ancestor wanted. At that time, the ancestor was already very old, and he knew that it would be difficult for him to realize his wish of establishing a family that would last forever in his lifetime.

So he and the wizard agreed that when the critical node arrived, the wizard would return to the Bonaparte family and make the last prophecy. "

"Alexander back then?"

"Yes, the wizard gave the last prophecy to Master Alexander. He predicted that Master Alexander would become an apprentice of a supernatural being in the future, and follow his teacher and the future king to save the world. Although he died because of this, the Bonaparte family has been the most prominent family in the world since his death.

Live forever!"

"Master Alexander seems to have only remembered the first half of the prophecy." The old butler glanced at the coffin beside him: "This coffin has been prepared for a long time. The Bonaparte family has only one coffin for each generation. It is the patriarch's coffin. Exclusive glory.

But this coffin will only be left to Master Alexander. Master Kailuo, don't complain, because your brother let Bonaparte step on him and go higher.

This is what he deserves. "

"No! With me, I can also lead Bonaparte to glory. Family members can sacrifice for the glory of the family, but the family must never sacrifice family members to achieve glory!

I will leave immediately to bring my eldest brother back! "

The old butler shook his head: "Master Kailuo, do you remember? They flew away. "

Hearing this, Kailuo became depressed. In the warehouse, the old and the young were no longer in the mood to communicate.

Just staring at the coffin blankly.
