Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 359 The Goblin in the Attic
Leon Rik invited Angel to sit down.

"Master Mask, can you save my daughter?" As soon as she sat down, Cyndia hurriedly spoke, fearing that Angel would disappear in the next second.

Angel raised his eyes and glanced at Cyndia. In just five days, the originally graceful lady was already haggard. Even though her hair was still combed meticulously, there was no decoration; plump cheeks also appeared. The depression, especially the skin changes the most, it is completely sallow.

Because of the daughter's misfortune, it was the mother who suffered the most in the end.

Angel lowered his head slightly, Cyndia's love for daughter reminded him of his mother.She also loves herself and her brother so much, without reservation, even at the last second of her life.

Angel's silence made Cyndia lose her eyesight, and she sat on the chair blankly, tears flowing silently.

"Doctor Caroline, can you help me send Cyndia back to the bedroom?" Although Leon Rick was also sad, but at this moment he was the only one who could carry the whole family, and he couldn't collapse yet.

Caroline nodded: "Okay. Ma'am hasn't closed her eyes these days, and she needs to rest." After finishing speaking, Caroline took Cyndia and left the hall, leaving only Angel and Leon Rick in the hall.

Angor: "I heard from Barr that you found a clue?"

Leon Rik showed a little discomfort: "It's not a clue, I just saw an urban legend in a travel book in the central library." Speaking of this, Leon Rik speeded up his speech, with a sad expression: "I think It should have nothing to do with Little Black Shadow, but I really have nothing to do, although Magda has woken up these days, but..."

Angel interrupted him: "It's irrelevant, let's not mention it for now. I want to hear the urban legend you told Barr."

Angor's solemn expression made Leon Rik stunned, and a trace of suspicion arose in his heart that he didn't even believe: Could it be such a coincidence?The urban legend he saw happened to be related to this incident, right?

Thinking of this possibility, Leon Rik immediately sat upright and started talking about the urban legend from the beginning——

"According to legend, 1000 years ago, Sipollac lived a group of races who liked to live in human families, named Kura Kuka. This race was called the little people by the local people of Sipollak, or: goblins in the attic .”

"They are small in size, mostly less than a palm. They are gentle and kind, good at singing and dancing, and love to make all kinds of exquisite ornaments. As long as there are Kulakuka people, life will become more and more exquisite, because they love repairing Decorate the room. Humans also like them very much, and they will make room for them, but the Kura Kuka is not a race that likes to trouble humans. They are small and do not need large rooms, so they often live in the attic or under the floor , so it is also known as the goblin in the attic."

"In the beginning, Kura Kuka and human beings were the closest partners. There was even a legend in Sipollak that as long as someone lived in the Kura Kuka family, the family would be happy forever. But it is also because of this legend , the Kura Kuka family is facing the greatest disaster."

"On this day, great changes took place in West Pollack. The war came, and the smoke filled the air. The people who lived here began to flee, and many people went to other places and drifted away... The war lasted for ten years. When the new sovereignty was established, West Pollack, a once-prosperous city, has become fragmented. Wandering wanderers will return home one day. After ten years of drifting, they dragged their tired bodies back to their hometown, and what they saw was broken houses and moss. "

"But it's strange to say that only the houses once inhabited by the Kulakuka tribe are still in good condition. When these wanderers who had been wandering for ten years returned home, they found that the Kulakuka tribe hadn't died, they were still living In the original family, waiting for the wanderer to return..."

Speaking of this, Leon Rik sighed softly: "The Kulakuka people are too pure and kind. They think that the people they used to be are still the people they used to be. However, although people have not changed, people's minds have changed. Especially After a war, ten years of wandering, the people of Sipollak learned a lot and lost a lot."

"They have learned to be greedy, to scramble, and to fight; at the same time, they have lost friendship, innocence, and happiness."

"When the Kulakuka clan faced the new Xipollaks, they were hit by a near-genocide destruction. Many Kulakuka clan were captured and trafficked, and some even because of human jealousy, And tortured, abused."

"Then, the Kulakuka tribe disappeared from the sight of human beings, and also disappeared into the long river of history."

After Leon Rik finished telling the urban legend he saw, he said in a low voice: "Perhaps, the reason why the war did not damage the house is that the Kulakuka people are working hard to repair it, just to wait for the return of the former owner. But Unfortunately……"

"The returnee has turned into a demon." Angel continued in a low voice.

Leon Rik nodded: "Kura Kuka's luck is that they believe in and like humans; but their misfortune is also because they believe in humans too much, and humans are the most fickle."

Angel thought about this story. According to the logic of human stories, this is an enlightening story, telling us to be kind, and warning that war is the source of all suffering.

But... what if it's not a story, but real?

Thousands of years ago, war, Sipporak, Kura Kuka, stories... Angel sorted out the key words one by one, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something.

Angor raised his head: "Siborack, is Walterglass actually?"

Leonric lowered his head and sighed, "Yes. The Sipporak in the story is the Walterglass today."

"The war a thousand years ago? The war to establish the Fuxu Royal Court?" Angel also recalled that Barr once said that the Fuxu Royal Court was established only a thousand years ago.

Leon Rik nodded: "If there are no accidents, it should be. After the establishment of the royal court, the former Syborac was renamed Waterglass by the king at that time..." Leon Rik slightly Shaking his head: "40 years ago, I was only 16 years old, and I took over Waterglass. The folk customs at that time were actually similar to the West Pollack people in the story, with poor mountains and bad waters, and a large number of troublemakers. I spent half my life It takes time to improve, build houses, open up people's wisdom, popularize morality, and it took 40 years to see the initial results."

"But now, when it's time for me to enjoy my blessings, something like this has happened. The old daughter, and the only daughter, actually..." Leon Rik said at this time, with tears running down his face: "If you steal my daughter The little black shadow is the former Kulakuka tribe, does this mean that the debt owed by our ancestors is time to pay?"

When Leon Rik was about to cry and his senses returned to clarity, Angel shook his head and said, "No."

"Why is that?"

"If it's for debt collection, they won't just steal blond people when they steal shadows." Angel said at this moment, subconsciously smoothing his messy short blond hair.

"My lord, is it really the Kulakuka who stole the shadow?" Leon Rik pondered for a while, but still asked the biggest doubt in his heart.

"I don't know." Angel recalled Shadow's words last night, and then thought of the magician's words that Shadow seems to have a soft spot for blondes, but the answer is self-evident: "But, it's very possible. "

"Then what should I do? Where can I find the Kulakuka tribe?" Leon Rik seemed to have sensed a ray of hope, and asked hastily.

Angel didn't answer, but stood up and said goodbye to Leon Rick: "Thank you Earl for the notification, and I will leave today."

Seeing this, Leon Rik looked bewildered and disappointed.Is there really no other way?
It wasn't until Angor completely disappeared into the darkness that Leon Rik covered his face and wept silently.

Just when Leon Rik fell into despair, he heard a familiar voice in his ear.

"If you have the courage to face the wrath of a wizard who could destroy Walterglass, you can come to me."

……

Angel didn't really leave, but hid in the boundless silence. It was his first time to use the sound transmission technique, and he had to see the specific effect.

Judging by Leon Rik's expression, it seems that he has received his voice transmission?
"Wizard, what wizard? Is it the magician Baal mentioned?" Leon Rick said loudly.

His yelling made Angel confirm that the voice transmission technique was correct.Angel did not intend to go back to Leon Rick, but slowly merged into the darkness and left the Earl's Manor.

Back at the villa in the bay area, as soon as Angel stepped into the yard, he found a strange scene.

Barr and Dodolo sat together, and Du Shan sat opposite, with a serious face.Dodolo looked ignorant, while Barr lowered his head and dared not make a sound.

"Why, Barr, are you planning to come here to study with Dodolo?" Angel walked in.

As if meeting a savior, Barr immediately fell to his knees in front of Angel, crawling and rolling: "My lord, please take me out, I really can't take it anymore."

Baal, with tears and snot running down his nose, recounted the pain of the morning.

He wanted to leave here, but as soon as he went out, he fell into a hallucination and saw the enemy chasing him.He cried and quarreled for a long time, and when he returned to the villa, the hallucination disappeared.

He didn't dare to go out, so he could only obediently stay in the villa and wait for Angel to come back.

But at this time, Du Shan came to his side and began to scold him.The reason is that when he was crying outside to see the devil just now, he said some of the crimes he had committed.The crimes he committed in the past can be described as countless, so he ignored Du Shan at first, and even showed a fierce expression, trying to scare Du Shan away.But Du Shan, relying on her age when she was about to die, was not afraid of Barr's threat at all, and on the contrary, she became more and more energetic.

Barr didn't dare to really hurt Du Shan, after all, he knew that standing behind Du Shan was Angel.In such a situation where you advance and I retreat, Barr can only obey the training obediently in the end.

After hearing Barr's cry, Angel couldn't help laughing: "Grandma Du Shan also hopes that you will change your ways."

Barr wants to cry but has no tears: He doesn't want to change his ways at all!
Angel glanced at Du Shan, who was filled with righteous indignation, and then at Barr, who was speechless.He suddenly smiled and said, "Well, Barr. You will follow Du Shan these days to protect her and Dodoluo's safety, and you can also learn the principles of life from Grandma Du Shan. I can give you permission to enter and exit the villa."

Barr's face turned pale in shock, and he shook his head again and again. He couldn't imagine what it would be like to be talked about by Du Shan all day long... But Angel's smile made him shudder, and he could only reluctantly agree with tears in his eyes. .

"Since you have Barr's protection, Grandma Du Shan, you can continue teaching according to the original plan tomorrow."

After solving the problem here, Angel signaled Barr to come in with him.
