The Grand Duke's words were obviously quite convincing.

His tone was very sincere, and Marven could feel that he was not using any enchanting spells on himself.

Every word he says comes from the bottom of his heart.

【Diroth. Creeland].

The name swirled in his mind like a spell.

The Grand Duke's face was slightly stern: "Have you really seen him?" ”

Marven nodded slightly.

"Nine Layers of Hell."

The Grand Duke was silent. He pressed his forehead hard, as if to organize his thoughts: "All these years, I have been working on finding traces of him. It's just that he is very cunning, and although I have a sense of him, he can still block out my perception of him. ”

"All I know is he's still in the world. Actually, when he was going to take Diroth's head, I knew that, after all, we were soul twins. ”

"But I didn't stop it, because I felt that with my brother's talent, he was fully qualified to have it. But then, it seems to have developed on the bad side. ”

Marven shook his head: "Maybe with the passage of time, the soul spirit energy has gradually disappeared?" ”

The Grand Duke laughed and said nothing.

Marven was a little surprised, he himself felt that this statement was unreliable!

If the Grand Duke and his grandfather were really soul twins, this innate spiritual energy would not disappear until death.

However, based on the three words of the Grand Duke, it is impossible to make Marven completely believe that his grandfather is dead.

In the Nine Layers of Hell, if it weren't for his help, it would be difficult for Marven and Eevee to get out of the predicament at that time.

Not to mention that he gave Marven two things.

Merely. Now it seems that those two things also have a mysterious color.

If it is true as the Grand Duke said. So when you use the Legion Contract Scroll, do you create a temporary gate to hell - or is it permanent?

Marven didn't know. He just felt like things were getting a mess.

Originally, this legion contract was regarded by him as a killer weapon. It may come in handy at a critical moment.

But now it seems that it is up for debate.

At the very least, to prove that his grandfather is still alive - and even if he is, what is the difference between him now and who he was then?

These are all things that Marvin needs to figure out.

As soon as he thought of this, he felt that his head was as big as a fight. One of the purposes of this trip to Lavis was to find out who his grandfather was.

I didn't expect the Grand Duke to say this, which seemed even more confusing.

……

The Grand Duke glanced at Marven meaningfully and suddenly stood up.

"Looks like you still have doubts. Let's go. ”

"I'll take you to meet someone."

The Grand Duke took Marven through the reception room and came to the depths of the castle.

Leaving the warm reception hall, the fireplace fire was far away from the two of them. The cold of the Northland has hit again.

When passing by a time monument and a water hourglass. Marven glanced at the time.

January 10, 819 in the Wizarding Calendar, 10:08 a.m.

An ingenious ancient goblin master-level timekeeping tool, very old, but precise, I didn't expect to see it here.

January 10th.

There are six days left, the date of the cataclysm of the gods.

Marven took a deep breath.

Regarding this news, it seems that some forces have already received it. And the Southern Wizards Alliance, however, still knows nothing.

It is no wonder that the South was the most exaggerated disaster area in the entire cataclysm. The rule of the entire Wizarding League was almost completely overturned.

In this, there is naturally the credit of the phoenix.

Even the Duchy of Lavis in the Northland is ready for the cataclysm, and there is no reason why the legendary wizards of the Southern Wizards Alliance do not know.

There is only one possibility. Those who knew left silently, they were not the opponents of the Stygian Phoenix.

The rest. It's just a poor worm blinded by the phoenix.

……

The two of them made their way through many ancient buildings to the depths of the castle.

Marvin observed. The castles of the White River Valley are simple, but they are cast in style. But it's exactly the same as this castle.

Perhaps when Delos built the castle, he designed it according to the place where he grew up.

In the deepest part of the castle is a frozen garden.

Although the Grand Duke looks old, his steps are still steady.

He led Marven step by step to the center of the garden.

In the middle of the garden, there is a cuboid lying impressively. A large amount of snow obscures its surface.

The snow was like flying, and Rao is Marven was physically strong, and he couldn't help but shudder.

Cold resistance doesn't mean you're not afraid of the cold anymore. What's more, the coldness of this place is even worse than the rest of the Northlands.

At the signal of the Grand Duke, Marven stepped forward and gently wiped away the thick snow.

In the next second, his pupils dilated!

It's a crystal coffin!

He hurriedly wiped all the snow away, and lying in the crystal coffin was a woman with an extremely delicate face.

She looked like she was thirty, extremely beautiful, her eyebrows were gentle, and she lay there quietly, her expression was very calm.

Marven felt inexplicable heartache at that moment.

It was as if someone was hammering his heart with a hammer.

Needless to say, Marven also knows who is lying here!

"It's been a long time since he's come to see him."

Not far away, a figure appeared inexplicably, and walked to the side of the crystal coffin with some sadness.

"Lord Owl!" Marven's body shook slightly.

Shadow Thief nodded.

He didn't pay much attention to Marven, but looked at the woman in the coffin affectionately.

To be honest, a lewd old man looking at a beautiful woman like this will give people a sense of disobedience.

But Marven only felt a large area of heartache and grief.

He kind of believed what the Grand Duke said.

Maybe his grandfather has really been devoured by the devil. It is also possible that the two have been assimilated into one.

Otherwise, how could he forget to come to see the woman he loved the most in his life?

"That's what it is...... My grandmother? ”

Marven quietly looked at the woman in the coffin.

"She's not dead yet." The Grand Duke said suddenly.

……

in the reception room. The atmosphere is still icy.

After seeing his grandmother's crystal coffin, Marven's trust in the Grand Duke increased several levels.

For the warlocks. There is no false connection in the bloodline.

There is no need for the Grand Duke to deceive himself, let alone the Shadow Thief Owl to testify.

"Her name is Bi."

"Ever since she was like this. Deloth entrusted the Duke with her protection. And he himself began to frantically search for a chance to save her all over the world. ”

"Deloth is a genius, but when he is on the verge of despair, he is also the most likely to become a madman."

"He used to come here every year to see him. He thought I didn't know, but I had been hiding in the shadows to watch him. ”

"He'd put a paper crane folded from snow and ice on top of her crystal coffin—it would only last three minutes before it would disappear into the air. Hehe, I didn't expect that. His origami skills are still above me. ”

By the warm fireplace, Xiao poured a big sip of wine, and his eyes were a little confused: "But for many years, he hasn't appeared." ”

"Later, the Duke told me that he had lost his sense of the soul imprint of Deloth."

"Then I went quietly to the White River Valley, unbeknownst to your father and uncle. I found out something very strange that he went to hell. But he did not take away the head of the Maharaja and the mystery of the ancestors, but left it to his direct descendants. ”

"But in any case, your grandfather is gone. I know you've probably met him, but that one he ......."

Said here. Shadow Thief doesn't seem to know how to describe it anymore: "Maybe, not necessarily the real ......"

Marven was silent.

He was also confused. If grandfather was really under the bewitchment of the devil Maharaja, he did some crazy things. But why not release the head of the Maharaja?

This qiē is an unsolved mystery.

The only thing worth Marven's vigilance is his grandfather. It might really be a bit of a problem.

He hesitated, but eventually took out the Hell Legion contract and the potion.

If it's just a grandfather who has never met. He wouldn't trust that much.

But the shadow thief is a different relationship entirely.

This guy saved his own life. Marven was willing to believe him.

The Grand Duke took the two things with a solemn face, looked at them carefully for a while, and showed a hint of doubt:

"There's nothing wrong with either of these things, there's no contract loophole."

"This potion can help you break through the existing Warlock rank without any side effects; And the Hell Legion contract, there is no problem. ”

He returned these two things to Marven without the slightest hint of greed.

All three were confused.

It seems that Diroth has no bad intentions for Marven.

Or is he still plotting a bigger game?

They really want to go to hell now, but unfortunately in this situation, everyone can't help themselves.

In addition to the shadow thief who is a little freer, behind Marven is the White River Valley, and behind the Grand Duke, there is an unknown number of years of Numan bloodline and a famous principality in the Northland!

They are all burdened with too many things to do as they please.

……

"Actually, the head of the Devil Lord is in the White River Valley, and I have known it for a long time."

"It's just that I didn't want to destroy him."

After a while, everyone broke free from Marven's grandfather's confusing incident and began to talk about another topic.

"But then, something went wrong with Lavis's legacy, and I had to send Daniela to the White River Valley to find you."

"We need the head of the Devil's Maharaja - to be exact, to extract something from his head in an ancient way."

"Just like our ancestors did. There can be a bit of danger here. ”

"But there are also great benefits."

"Before I get into that, though, I want to ask you: Do you want to marry the brightest jewel of Lavis, your cousin, Daniela?"

The Grand Duke's gaze focused on Marven: "She is a very talented child, and so are you." Your descendants will have immeasurable power. ”

"Answer me, Marven. This is an important question. ”
