Chapter 577
Count Valentine stood up to protect the retreat of the people in that battle, and eventually died in a bloody battle.
His subordinates took Camilla and Alex and fled with the people, but they were separated by a group of monsters on the way, causing Camilla and Alex to be separated.
When they met again, Camilla was already famous, and Alex was recognized by one of the holy swords because of his "brave qualifications".
Later, the giant half-blood Suna Montilfarri appeared in the lives of the siblings.
The three formed a team and were active as mercenaries in the battlefield between humans and demons.
Camilla protected her brother, who was the last relative, very well and never let him get into danger lightly.
But Suna believed that her behavior would only make Alex a waste.
The two eventually had a dispute.
After a particularly fierce quarrel, the two decided to go their separate ways.
Camilla originally thought that Alex would definitely follow her, but she didn't expect that he would eventually choose Suna, which was a huge blow to her.
Soon after, Alex became famous for the title of "Moonlight Swordsman".
After that, the war became more and more intense.
Whether it was Camilla, Alex, or Suna, they all had a life-and-death feud with the demons.
Both sides resolutely joined the army.
Although they were divided into two northern and southern troops, they could always get some news about each other from the intelligence department.
Until one day, Alex and Suna suddenly withdrew from the army and the two sides completely lost contact.
No one expected that when they parted ways, it would be the last time the three of them met.
Camilla tried her best to find Alex after the war, but in the end she only got the news that he had passed away.
It was not until Suna Montilfarli built the Free City that Camilla knew that the bitch who took her brother away had married her brother.
...
After many years of wandering.
Camilla and Suna's daughters have grown up, and the two met again in the banquet hall of the Duke's Mansion.
Lord Montilfarli just disliked Camilla.
But Camilla regarded her as an enemy.
The two sides were on the verge of a fight.
If they were not in the Duke's Mansion, they would have fought!
...
At this moment, Dak was preparing to hold Diana's hand and dance for tonight's birthday party.
He could see that Rose had no intention of dancing, and Anna and Angel were not his choices from the beginning.
This is the Duke's Mansion, his home court, so naturally he didn't have to give too much face to the two little princesses.
In short, after dancing with Diana, he would probably dance with Rose, and then play with the magic elves for a while. Even if tonight was over, what was left was the expected gift unpacking session.
Every invited family gave at least one gift, and the maids would send them to his bedroom and put them away.
In the past, birthday gifts were things that matched his age.
He hoped that this year's birthday gift would also match his current age.
However, things don't always go as planned, and tonight's birthday party doesn't seem to end so easily.
Dak didn't know who the unexpected guest was, but since he could enter the Duke's Mansion, there must be no big problem. It's just that this person seems to have some disagreements with Diana's family?
He looked down at Diana and was about to ask.
Diana shook her head quickly: "I don't know, I don't know, I don't know."
Dak was happy and observed it himself.
Lord Montilfarli is a person who can easily leave an impression on others.
The first time Dak saw her, he noticed the similarity between her and Professor Pava Jones from her height and breath.
"Is she a giant hybrid?"
His eyes turned slightly, and Dak's sight quickly moved away from Lord Montilfarli and looked at the other person who followed her.
This look made him frown.
The one following Lord Montilfarli was naturally her daughter Aurora.
Aurora, who has one-quarter giant blood and one-quarter moon elf blood, is completely different from her mother who is tall and has slightly rough features. She is not only petite, but also has delicate features.
Her hair color is also inherited from her father Alex, pure white and transparent, with only a little silver light at the end.
But more importantly, she looks quite similar to Diana!
Dak can be said to have watched the flesh on Diana's face disappear little by little, and gradually grow a widow's peak.
And the girl at the door gave him the feeling that Diana would become after another year or two of growth.
Of course, it's just a resemblance.
But Dak couldn't help asking again: "What about her? Don't know her either?"
Diana shook her head vigorously: "I don't know her."
Rose's eyes were also surprised, and she hesitated: "Diana, you don't have a long-lost sister, do you?"
Diana shook her head again: "How is it possible."
At this moment, the second princess Anna on the other side laughed and said: "No way? Don't you even know the mayor of the Free City? No way, no way?"
The third princess Angel also said: "The little one is Aurora Montilfali, she is very famous."
"The mayor of the Free City... is he a sun warrior?"
Dak's expression moved, and he had an idea in his mind.
But when he was about to withdraw his gaze, Aurora Montilfari, who looked similar to Diana, raised her head slightly, and her bright red eyes inherited from her mother were fixed on him.
…
Aurora didn't pay too much attention to the confrontation between her mother and her aunt.
She had already started to help her mother with the housekeeping, and she saw these things very clearly, and knew that it was impossible for the two to fight.
She started searching for Dak as soon as she entered the door. Now that she finally found him, she could no longer take her eyes away.
Two months have passed since Easter, and her "fiancé" seems to have undergone some unexplainable changes.
It caught her attention even more than when he won the Easter Duel Festival.
She didn't know if that was because of Dak's changes, or because the connection between her and him would be severed?
People will always cherish things they are about to lose more.
Aurora had wondered whether it was because of this that she felt more melancholy.
There was a touch of sadness in her eyes, which was incompatible with the tense situation around her.
…
"Suna, why are you here?"
Arvette's voice curbed the growing conflicts.
There is no change in the piano playing.
She stood up and walked to the door herself, causing other members of the family who had other thoughts to shut up.
Viscount Gerritby and his wife also snorted slightly at this time, and before Valkyrie could speak, they chose to give in temporarily.
Lord Montiel Farley raised the corners of his mouth and put down his momentum.
Then she turned to Arvite and said calmly and generously: "It's been too long since I last saw you. I wanted to come over and sit down. I just happened to remember your baby's birthday on the way, so I rushed off the road."
"It's rare that you still remember." Arvette suddenly smiled, but her eyes turned directly to Aurora who was next to the Lord of Montirfali.
"Is this Xiao Ruola?" she asked, unable to conceal her surprise.
"Yes." The Lord of Montelfali patted Aurora on the back of the head and reminded, "Why don't you call Auntie."
Aurora quickly came to her senses and said obediently: "Aunt Dimon, I am Aurora."
"Well." Arvette walked up to her, leaned over and said, "It's almost ten years since we last met, right? She's almost as tall as my baby."
Aurora's cheeks were slightly red, and she subconsciously tightened her clothes.
"Stop standing here, come with me over here. By the way, have you eaten?" Arvite directly grabbed her little hand and led her to the main table.
Aurora felt the gazes gathering around her, a hint of shyness appeared on her face, but she still managed to say: "I've eaten a little."
"Then eat some more." Arvette placed her in Dak's original position and said, "I'll let Dak cut a piece of cake for you."
With that said, she waved to Dak.
Duck showed an apologetic look at Diana, then walked past the four girls, picked up the knife again and cut the cake.
He cut two pieces of cake at a time, served them on two plates, and brought them in front of Aurora and Lord Montilfali.
Lord Montilfali sat in Anna's seat, his expression calming down.
Although her original purpose was to cancel the engagement, it was of course impossible for her to say it on this occasion.
Originally, the "baby kiss" of the two children, which was a private decision, was not spread.
Therefore, retreating means retreating.
If you say it in this situation, it will be difficult to retreat.
And of course such private matters should be discussed in private.
Only someone with a short-circuited brain would put such a thing on the table.
After Lord Montiel Farley took the cake handed over by Dak, he held out his hand to Aurora.
Aurora understood in her heart and immediately took out a palm-sized exquisite box.
The Lord of Montelfali smiled slightly, picked up the box, handed it to Dak, and said: "Today is the first time you have met since you grew up. You can call me aunt. This is what I have prepared for you." birthday gift."
"Thank you, Auntie." Dak reached out and took the box, feeling a warmth emanating from it.
He had a rough idea of what was inside and put it away carefully.
Then the Lord of Montelfali pointed at Aurora and introduced: "This is Aurora. You saw her when you were children. Of course, you definitely don't remember it now."
When Dark observed Aurora at close range, he felt more and more that she resembled Diana.
But seeing the tense looks on the faces of the Lord of Montelfali and Diana's mother, he knew it was best not to ask here.
So he just introduced himself to Aurora when they first met, and then backed away.
The sound of the piano still echoes.
Dark returned to the dance floor, this time reaching out directly to Deanna.
Diana was pleasantly surprised and quickly stretched out her hand to hold it back, accidentally using too much force.
Dak hissed secretly, held her hand in his hand, and danced a ballroom dance.
The two little princesses clasped their hands behind their backs and gnashed their teeth.
But the two looked at each other and reached a consensus.
Then they formed a pair and deliberately moved in the direction of Duck and Diana.
Rose quietly exited the dance floor.
But she did not return to her seat, but leaned to the side, picked up a cup of tea and sipped it, her eyes unconsciously turned to Aurora on the main table.
As if sensing her gaze, while Aurora was quietly watching Dark, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Rose.
The two of them made eye contact for a moment, and each shyly turned his head away.
At the same time, they were aware of each other's presence.
Rose instinctively felt threatened and couldn't help but feel a little worried about Diana.
But Diana was completely immersed in the joy of being chosen, and didn't notice Anna and Angie's little moves at all, let alone anything else.
