Working Prophet.

Chapter 225 Key Testimony
"Sir Carloman, do you remember me?"

Ilea said to the man in front of him with a pair of gray-brown ears and a long thin beard.

The latter raised his head timidly when he heard the words, and the pair of bloodshot eyes stayed on the female lord's face for about three or four seconds before he recognized the girl.

"You are...Ilea, Ruth's daughter?!"

"That's right, it was me. On my eighth birthday, you took me to ride a horse on the grass outside Teacup Castle."

"Oh my god, it's really you! Ilea, have you been kidnapped by those villains too?" Carloman's eyes widened, and he looked at Thomas who was standing next to the female lord with some fear.

"This is my captain of the guard, Cavalier Thomas." Ilea gave a brief introduction to the two.

However, after seeing the weasel coat of arms on the knight's armor, Carloman was at a loss again.

"Oh, this batch of armor originally belonged to the Emmanuel family. They gave me this batch of armor in order to thank me for getting rid of the black dragon and avenge their family. I haven't had time to change the tattoo on it. Chapter." The female lord explained.

"So you saved me, Ilea!" Carloman burst into tears with excitement, stood up tremblingly from the ground, and planned to give Miss Rabbit a big hug, but was stopped by Thomas.

In addition, Carloman also noticed that the girl took half a step back calmly.

The joy of the owner of Acorn Castle after he successfully escaped from trouble also dissipated most of it immediately, and he smelled a bad smell.

"Those who kidnapped you, do you know anything about their origins?" Ilea continued to ask.

Carloman shook his head, "I don't know. When I was hunting, they suddenly appeared. There were seven people in total, all of them covered their faces. They tied me up and killed my attendant without saying a word."

"Afterwards, I was taken away by them. These days they have been using all kinds of cruel methods to torture me, and even cut off my right hand."

Carloman stretched out his severed arm while talking, the wrist was empty, and the cut was wrapped with a strip of cloth, which had been dyed brown by blood plasma.

"Then do you know why those people kidnapped you?"

"What else...these desperadoes are just for money." The owner of Acorn Castle's eyes flickered.

"And you insisted on refusing to give them money, even at the expense of your right hand?" Miss Rabbit said, "Why didn't I know you valued money so much before?"

"They didn't give me a chance to choose at all, and cut off my right hand as soon as they came up."

Recalling that nightmarish experience, Carloman closed his eyes in pain. It took him a while to calm down his breathing, and thanked the girl again.

"You saved me from those villains, my boy, and I don't know how to repay you. Also, I've heard about your successful slaying of a dragon. It's an amazing feat. If Russ is still alive, he must Will be proud of you."

After a pause, he looked around again, "Where are we now, Luye? They put me in a wine barrel before, and I couldn't see the outside scene at all."

"You are in Yanxue City now." The female lord said calmly, "By the way, David's cavalry is just two streets away."

Carloman's expression froze when he heard that, but then he forced a smile on his face, "Yan Xuecheng, that's great, with the guards of the Figuerola family protecting us, we must be safe."

"I am indeed safe, but you are not necessarily."

Carloman laughed dryly, and pretended to be stupid, "I don't know what you're talking about, Ilea... Well, can I leave now? I need to go to the Silver Moon Church to see a doctor to treat my injuries."

"Please go ahead." Ilea stepped aside from the door very readily.

Carloman couldn't believe that he could get out of trouble so easily, he stood up tentatively, and walked out of the room with some staggering steps.

However, just as he stepped out of the door, the female lord's voice sounded from behind him again, "You know what will happen to you if David finds you, right?"

Carloman's body shook.

"As long as you leave this hotel, David's eyeliner nearby will find you immediately. We spent a lot of effort to get you in just now."

Carloman's body trembled even more when he heard the words. After a while, he finally withdrew his stepping foot, turned around and said to the girl, "What exactly do you want?"

"An answer."

"what is the answer?"

"I already know that what happened in Acorn Castle more than half a year ago was not an accident, but a premeditated murder. I need you to tell me who ordered you to murder my father."

"I..." Carloman opened his mouth, trembling for a long time, but couldn't utter a word.

"Tell me that name."

"If I tell you, will you let me go?" Carloman obviously knew that there was no point in arguing anymore. Maybe the group who kidnapped him before were also related to the Arias family.

"No, you killed my father. He regards you as his best friend. I need to avenge my father."

"Impossible. If you know his identity, you will know that your revenge cannot be completed at all."

"That's my business." The female lord said.

"Then what good is it for me, no matter whether you say it or not, I will die." Carloman smiled bitterly.

"Speaking out, you will at least feel better before you die, if you still have the slightest bit of guilt for murdering my father."

"........."

Carloman's whole body seemed to be crushed by these words, and he closed his eyes in pain again, covered his face with his only remaining hand, and sobbed unexpectedly.

"He forced me. The Figuerola family is the lord of the Western Region, and that person is the next successor of the Figuerola family. He only needs to talk, and someone will do everything for him. They designed to frame Hugo , my only son, I had to do as he said.

"Only in this way can Hugo be saved. I don't want to murder your father. We are friends, but I can't disobey David's order. I'm sorry, I'm too weak..."

Hearing Carloman finally spit out that name, Ilea also let out a long breath. She didn't feel much joy, but a kind of relief that after traveling thousands of miles, she was finally about to reach the end.

Following the technique taught to her by Professor Li Yu, she pressed the pause button on the recording pen, and recorded the conversation between the two of them completely.

Afterwards, without even looking at Carloman, who was kneeling and crying bitterly, he walked directly over the latter and left the room without looking back.
