Chapter 115 The Last Heir of the Magic Continent 4
Chapter 115 The Last Heir of the Magic Continent 4
After a while, Xie Qi suddenly looked at the male protagonist beside him and thought of a very important question.
So he quickly grabbed Szelot in front of him, looked at him seriously and said, "He is a prince, and you are a knight. So you are now the knight chosen by Shenok?"
However, after hearing Xie Qi's words, Szelote seemed to have thought of something bad. His brows furrowed slightly, and he said calmly, "No."
Ever since Prince Sherkaki died, he had vowed never to be anyone's knight again. Even when Shernok later became a prince and wanted to choose him as his personal knight, he refused without hesitation.
At this moment, a trace of doubt flashed across Xie Qi's face, and he asked curiously: "Then why were you walking with him just now?"
Hearing this, Szelote took a deep breath, a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and explained: "I am the captain of the Holy Kaya City Guard. Protecting the prince is the duty of us knights."
However, Xie Qi looked at Szelote and couldn't help but feel curious. He couldn't help but ask, "With your strength, you are more than qualified to be a knight of the prince. Why don't you become a knight of Shenok?"
Szelot didn't stop, but continued walking forward, while answering: "The prince I want to protect is no longer here. Even if my current status as a prince is noble, I will not..."
At this point, Szelote suddenly stopped, sighed deeply, and murmured softly: "Why am I telling you this?"
However, Xie Qi held his wrist tightly, his eyes gleaming brightly as he looked at Szelote expectantly, saying in a firm and joyful tone, "In that case, why don't you be my knight!"
Hearing this, Szelote could not help but frown and said seriously: "Don't make such jokes casually."
Xie Qi hurriedly shook his head in denial, and explained: "No, I'm not kidding, everything I said is true, I really hope..."
However, just as Xie Qi was about to continue expressing his thoughts, a man suddenly appeared in front of Szelote and said respectfully, "Knight Commander, the king is looking for you."
When Szelote heard this, he frowned slightly, but nodded to show that he understood.
He turned to Xie Qi and said, "The Saint Kaya Academy is just ahead. I have something else to attend to, so I'll excuse you. We'll meet again. Saint Kaya Academy looks forward to your joining us."
After saying that, he waved and left in a hurry.
Xie Qi watched Szelote's receding figure, a complex emotion welling up in his heart. He had originally wanted to tell Szelote his true identity, but now it seemed he would have to wait until next time.
Xie Qi sighed, looked up at the magnificent academy in front of him, and couldn't help but worry whether his out-of-control magic could pass the exam smoothly.
At this moment, Szelot had already arrived at the castle, opened the door and walked in alone. He bowed to the king who was sitting at the desk.
"Good day, Your Majesty."
Xie Teming raised his head, looked deeply at the young man in front of him, and asked with narrowed eyes: "Has Xie Nuoke been studying magic well recently?"
"Your Majesty, you should ask Finny about these issues."
Hearing this, Xie Teming sighed and said helplessly, "Well, well, I really don't know what you're so uncomfortable with. Wouldn't it be nice to be my son's knight? In the end, that kid Finny got the advantage."
However, Szelot did not respond to the king's words, but only said: "Fini and the prince get along well. King, you can trust Finni completely."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore." After Xie Teming finished speaking, he slowly stood up and walked in front of the male protagonist.
After all, Shenok was just an excuse for him to call the male protagonist over. His real purpose was just to cast a magic circle on the male protagonist.
So he walked closer, circled around Szelotte, and looked at him carefully.
However, this feeling of being scrutinized made Szellot feel very uncomfortable, but he still suppressed the discomfort in his heart and remained calm.
Finally, Xie Teming's eyes stopped at his ear, the magic earring inlaid with a red gem, and asked curiously: "I see you seem to be wearing this earring all the time. Do you like it?"
Hearing this, Szelote subconsciously raised his hand and touched the earrings on his ears. Then he said calmly, "I'm just used to wearing them. There's nothing special about them."
The king said inquiringly, "Is that so? But these earrings are really beautiful and suit you very well. Just wear them all the time."
Upon hearing this, Szelote frowned slightly, feeling a little strange, but still said respectfully, "Yes."
Afterwards, Xie Teming slowly walked back and sat on the chair, then said, "There's nothing else to worry about. It's just that I'm too worried about my son. Since you said so, I will look for Finny later. You can go back first."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
At this moment, Szelot, who had already left, had no idea that the king had cast a magic circle on his earrings.
After Szelote left the room, the room, which had been peaceful and calm, suddenly erupted into a black mist. Above the mist were a pair of fearful eyes and a mouthful of fangs.
The devil's voice revealed greed: "Haha... What a delicious human... You have such a good human, why did you bring it to me now? This one is much more delicious than the humans you sacrificed before..."
However, Xie Teming scolded him, "I will find someone else for you to sacrifice, but he cannot die now."
Then, a sinister smile appeared on his face, and a cunning gleam in his eyes, as if everything was under his control.
"I just cast a spell on his belongings, which allows me to monitor his every move."
However, after hearing his words, the Demon King's voice was filled with anger and dissatisfaction, and his fangs flashed coldly in the darkness. He said coldly: "For decades, I asked you to find a way to remove the seal, not to spy on a student!"
Xie Teming sat in his chair, undeterred by the Demon King's rebuke. His lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile as he said calmly, "Don't worry. Waiting for the Demon Spirit Sacrifice will be the perfect time to lift the seal. And that person just now is one of the conditions for lifting the seal."
"Demon Spirit Sacrifice?"
"That's right. Szellot is the youngest and most talented magic knight in Saint Kaya City. He has the highest probability of being chosen as the guardian of the Magic Stone, so monitoring him before the Magic Stone Sacrifice begins will be of great help to us."
The Demon King fell into deep thought. After a while, he floated behind Xie Teming and said doubtfully, "Why don't I believe that just one human can break the seal? If it were that simple, why would I have been trapped for thousands of years?"
However, Xie Teming suddenly burst into laughter, his eyes became even crazier, and his smile became even more sinister: "Who said that he is the only one needed? All the teachers and students in the entire Saint Kaya Academy will be sacrifices under my magic circle, hahahaha..."
When the Demon King heard what Xie Teming said, he was also shocked. He didn't expect that there would be human beings in the world who were more vicious and shameless than him. For his own selfish desires, he wanted to massacre the entire Saint Kaya Academy.
But for the Demon King, this was certainly a good thing. As soon as his seal was lifted and he was free, the first person he would kill was Xie Teming.
After all, as the Demon King, how could he allow someone to be more evil than him?
However, Xie Teming was no fool. How could he possibly tell the Demon King all his secrets? In fact, there was one truth he hadn't revealed: the magic circle that lifted the seal actually concealed a master-servant contract.
In other words, once the seal is lifted, the Demon King will become his servant and obey his orders. In this way, he can use the Demon King's power to realize his own ambitions.
So, the Demon King and Xie Teming continued their cooperation with their own ulterior motives.
