Chapter 766
Rafael took a step towards Selina. Seeing that she had no intention of beating him, he took two more steps forward.
"Since you heard it, Mom...can you tell me..."
What happened after that was really hard to say.
Selina sighed and looked at Rin.
"His Royal Highness the Holy Son is right, daughter, there is actually something I haven't told you."
Selena pulled Rafael and sat aside.
"Cavendish has the royal bloodline of the Holy Empire. His family fled to the Fallen Star Empire in their early years and has since settled here, earning a small amount of savings through doing business.
I was in a side branch of the family and it was not very prominent. We basically grew up together.
It was only after he drank too much that I learned that his ancestors were members of the royal family of the Holy Empire and were ousted from power due to a coup. "
"coup……"
Rafael thought for a moment and raised his index finger: "Could it be something that is known as the black history of the mainland?"
The reincarnation of a skeleton and the death of a hero seems outrageous when you think about it, but it really happened.
"Well, their ancestor was still a child at that time. He was rescued and moved around, and finally came to the Meteor Empire."
"Then...what does this have to do with his crime?"
"The main backbone of Charon are the descendants of that royal family, including your father, Cavendish."
Rafael seemed to have guessed what his mother would say next, and he looked depressed.
Selina continued: "I found a lot of clues from his late mentor, all of which pointed out that he was a member of the Charon organization and had a high status in it.
If you follow the line of archaeological work, you will find that several archaeological students and helpers die in ancient ruins every year. At that time, everyone thought it was an archaeological accident.
I asked people to re-visit and investigate every ancient ruins where he stayed, and paid a lot of money to hire a spiritual mage to get close to his disciples... All the evidence shows that he is not what we imagined at all. I don't know when, he has become The executioner. "
Under Selena's words, Rafael had no luck anymore. He squeezed the corner of the quilt tightly with his hands, and his fingertips were turning white.
Selena took a deep breath, stepped forward and held her daughter in her arms.
"I shouldn't have kept this from you in the first place, baby, don't worry about it anymore, you still have me, I will handle his affairs, you... don't think too much and don't ask anymore."
"But...but...I..."
That was his biological father. It was not easy to completely ignore Rafael.
It's just that she doesn't know what to do.
"Listen to mom."
Selina's eyes flashed, and she suddenly grabbed her hand and handed it to Rin.
"Boy, I was very dissatisfied with you."
"Forehead?"
"It's not that I don't like you, it's just that... you have too many lovers."
Selena made a serious face: "But who made my daughter like you? At least you are a good child. She will live a better life than me, but if I know that you bully her..."
"Wait a minute, Auntie."
Rin had a toothache and glanced at Raphael, who was shrinking his neck and only rubbing his hands.
"Well, I bully her quite often."
Selena was angry and funny: "You brat, you're quite honest. I'm not talking about bullying. I mean letting her down. Do you understand?"
When she said the last word, she came over with a sharp look, and Rin was immediately frightened.
"……Understand."
"That's it, take her away quickly, take her to relax, and don't worry about things here."
Raphael didn't object, he just lowered his head silently and allowed his hand to be grabbed by Rin.
She knew that Selena, who had made the decision, was much more sad and depressed than she was.
At this time, she should not be willful.
Rin scratched his head: "I'm going to the Desert of Death. Do you mind the danger there?"
"It's just a good time to practice. During this time, she doesn't think about food or drink, and she doesn't exercise well. She goes there to sharpen her skills. I hope she can reach level 50 as soon as possible."
"Well, now that you say so."
Rin could only agree.
Selena said earnestly to Rafael: "After you go out, don't cry, every step should be brave."
"Yeah, I get it, Mom."
The Thundersword user recalled some nightmare fragments.
It seems that I can still remember the painful reincarnation in it.
Thanks to that nightmare, she was able to become stronger.
Otherwise, now I won't just hold Rin and cry and vent, but I won't make a decision easily.
She feels that this is not an escape, but an exercise so that she can better stand by her mother in the future.
And...she really needs a buffer space to completely accept reality.
"Then why don't you leave quickly? Isn't there some kind of teleportation?"
Selina seemed not to want to see them anymore, and waved her hands in disgust; "Leave quickly, and... definitely don't cause any harm to anyone. It's a troubled time now."
As she said that, she couldn't help but glance at Rin, with a bit of confusion and confusion in her eyes.
Rin's scalp was numb at the sight of her, and she quickly explained; "We were not what you thought before. I... I was just applying medicine when Rafael called me over."
Selina was silent for a moment and couldn't help but ask: "So, will applying the medicine have immediate effects?"
Rafael looked confused: "Mom, what are you talking about? What about immediate results?"
"...It's nothing, get out of here."
Rin never expected that a swordsman as noble and cool as Selena could speak such... profound and profound words.
Anyway, he had no shame in staying any longer, so he immediately opened up a space, dragged Rafael and ran away.
Selina looked at the closed space, still a little confused.
"Isn't it true that body shape is directly related to...?"
Chapter 8 But my riding skills are not very good
Rin teleported back to the tent.
He and Rafael were caught off guard, and their heads immediately hit the ceiling of the tent.
Both of them squatted on the ground holding their heads and grinning.
A warm hand immediately appeared on Rin's head.
"Brother, be careful."
Rin didn't feel the pain anymore, and when he raised his head, he met Xiye's concerned and somewhat confused gaze.
"Ahem, sister... let me introduce our new member. I will take her with me on this trip to the desert."
Xiye looked at the pants that Rin had put on, and then at Raphael who was greeting her with an irritated expression, and she felt a little more clear.
But she didn't ask any more questions, just nodded gently.
"However, this tent is not big enough for three people to sleep."
Raphael blushed and waved his hand: "I don't want to sleep together! Besides... besides, it's still daytime when I'm in the Holy Empire."
As she spoke, she glanced at the tent secretly, and her eyes finally fell on Rin's pants lying on the ground and the ointment on the side.
"It turns out...it's really medicine, so why are you applying medicine..."
"Shut up, you idiot hedgehog!"
Rin quickly covered Raphael's mouth: "Okay, why are you crowded here in such a small tent? If you don't want to sleep, go watch."
"Just keep it! Who wants to stay with a stinky gangster like you!"
Raphael snorted coldly, hunched over and left the tent.
Just as she was about to zip up the zipper, she suddenly thought of something and spoke with difficulty.
"You... you... if, what, it's best to keep your voice down."
After saying that, she hurriedly pulled up the zipper and ran quickly.
Only Rin and Yuye were left looking at each other.
"Brother, Rafael seems to know a lot."
"I'm guessing she's secretly looking at the little emperor's uncle. Don't worry about her."
Lin lay down carelessly and said, "Fortunately, we will go to the oasis tomorrow, otherwise she will be punished for disturbing our time together."
Xiye couldn't help but smile, lying beside him, covering him with a quilt, and kissed Rin's lips.
"Brother, go to sleep quickly. I will have to replace Rafael in the second half of the night and keep vigil."
"Well, good night."
Rin said good night and slowly closed his eyes.
After lying upright for ten minutes, he suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and pressed down on Xiye's shoulders.
Xiye opened her eyes, and in her dark red eyes, stars flickered and flickered, and she looked at Rin quietly.
"No, the awakening ceremony was interrupted and I can't sleep!"
Rin whispered into her ear, and his hot breath lit a fire in Xiye's heart.
But she glanced to her left, doubtful.
"But, Raphael..."
"So you idiot sword master, please keep your voice down!"
…
Raphael was rekindling a bonfire not far away, and she had the Thunder Elemental Divine Sword stuck in the ground beside her.
She sat down and looked up at the desert night scene she had never seen before.
The front foot is still in my bedroom, and the back foot appears in the desert, and it is a place I have never been before. It feels quite strange.
Thinking of going deep into the Desert of Death in the future and seeing the wonders and monsters that ordinary people would never see in their lifetime, Miss Thunder Sword User, who already loves adventure, felt her heart surge.
It seems that even the previous sadness and hesitation have been forgotten a lot.
Don't think about that kind of trouble for the time being.
Otherwise, it would be fine if Rin saw her if she cried. It would be so embarrassing to be seen by Xiye.
She simply lay down and connected the stars in the sky with her fingers.
Unknowingly, they actually connected into the shape of a phoenix clone.
Not only that, the Liu Bei and illustrated books that I had secretly seen came to my mind crazily.
She thought of the kiss scene in her dream, and her mind was unconsciously interpreting the unfinished things.
She stopped her hand, a ball of steam suddenly came out of her head, and she covered her face.
"Raphael, are you crazy! Why is your head filled with that kind of stuff!"
I seemed to hear a strange muffled sound in my ears.
She looked helpless.
"It's over. Even the auditory hallucinations appeared. I still called him a stinker. I feel the same way."
Gradually, Rafael finally realized something was wrong, came to his senses, and sat up.
"No...it doesn't seem to be an auditory hallucination!"
