These days, wives deliver to their door by themselves

Said a maid with wavy hair.

"No matter what we say, we can't prove our identity. Perhaps you are willing to go to the ruins of the crystal coffin with us to witness it with your own eyes."

Karina immediately refused.

"This is impossible."

That's right, even if Du Wei is willing to go, his family will not agree, after all they don't want him to get involved too deeply with religion.

"Then there is another way."

Another maid with shoulder-length short hair looked at Sasha.

"Dean Rowling can extract the memories in our brains to find out the authenticity."

Just as the maid finished speaking, a space crack appeared in the living room, and the Dean Rowling that the maid said was Du Wei's grandma walked out of the crack.

"grandmother!?"

Rowling did not respond to him, but looked at the four maids with serious expressions.

"Are you sure? Memory search may cause irreparable sequelae to the brain."

"Flo..."

Miss Hill seemed to want to say something to stop her, but the maids held her down.

The maid with shoulder-length short hair looked at Princess Kainos with a reassuring look, and then calmly walked in front of Rowling.

"I believe that memory search should not be a difficult spell for you, the fifth member of the Mage Council, and you should really want to know the truth of the matter."

Rowling didn't say much, but put her hand on the forehead of the maid named Flo and chanted a difficult spell.

After the incantation was finished, the maid fell backwards unconsciously. Just before she fell to the ground, a translucent giant hand lifted her up. This time Rowling pressed her hand on the unconscious woman. After the maid closed her forehead, she closed her eyes and did not move.

The scene suddenly fell into an abnormal silence. No one dared to make a sound at this moment, for fear that Rowling's distraction would really break the maid's head.

After about ten minutes, Rowling withdrew her hand and exhaled a long breath, and then the transparent giant hand sent the maid who was still unconscious to lie flat on the sofa.

"Du Wei."

"What happened to grandma?"

"Follow me back to the mansion."

so suddenly?

"Hey!? But what we're going to talk about today hasn't been settled yet?"

"That's not important anymore, go back with me first."

well?What did Rowling see in the maid's memory?

But seeing Rowling's dignified expression, Du Wei also understood that the best policy is to be obedient at this time.

Just when they got up and were about to leave, Karina suddenly took out a small box from her arms and put it on the table.

Princess Hill was confused.

"......This is?"

"What you've been looking for."

Princess Hill was stunned for a moment, then her expression changed suddenly. She carefully opened the small box, and there was an emerald green leaf inside.

"how much is it?"

There was a trill in Princess Hill's tone, and this was the first time Du Wei saw her lose her composure.

Karina sneered.

"Do you think I will be short of money? You can figure it out yourself."

After speaking, Karina dragged Du Wei out of the dormitory.

118 The price of leaves

I don't know if Rowling has made arrangements in advance, Du Wei just walked out of the dormitory, and found that the family's carriage was already waiting outside.

However, Rowling did not go back with them, but took Sasha to draw a space crack and left directly.

What information did Rowling learn from the maid's memory... He was very curious!

And thinking about it carefully, this meeting did not solve any problems at all, and it can even be said that the problems have become more, such as Destiny's Child, Destiny Sect, and Doomed Destiny.

Du Wei was also very concerned about what Rowling said before leaving, what is meant by 'that is not important anymore'.

What does that refer to?What about him and Princess Hill?Or is it a matter of the Destiny Sect?I always feel like I'm in a big mess.

"Master Du Wei, are you alright?"

Karina, who was sitting next to Du Wei, put her hand on his forehead with a worried face.

He was honest.

"Of course there is something. I have been confused about the situation since just now...By the way, what is the leaf you left for Princess Hill at the end?"

A single leaf can actually make that princess turn pale with fright. You must know that she didn't have such big emotional ups and downs when she just showed the hole card of the Destiny Sect.

Karina replied flatly.

"That's a leaf of the World Tree."

"...Huh? The leaves of the World Tree? Wait, I gave her the leaves of the World Tree?"

The leaf of the World Tree is actually the name of a prop. It is not just a leaf, but a bud picked from the bud located in the center of the World Tree. It is said that after taking it, it can relieve any curse and cure all diseases.

However, if you have money, you may not be able to buy it, because the number of outflows from the elf kingdom is too small. It is said that the elves only pick two or three pieces every year.

Karina gave away the leaves of the world tree?To someone she considers an enemy?What is this operation?

"I want her to owe me a favor forever." The corners of Karina's mouth rose slightly.

"What's going on? Don't be foolish. Is it possible that Princess Hill has some kind of curse or some rare disease?"

Karina shook her head.

"Not her, but her mother."

"The Queen of the Kingdom of Keenos?"

Karina shook her head again.

"Have you forgotten? Princess Hill is the daughter of the concubine, and the current Queen Keenos is the mother of the eldest prince."

Oh oh oh, he almost forgot that Princess Hill is different from that idiot prince.

"Princess Hill's mother, that is, the side concubine was diagnosed with a very strange disease, sleeping sickness."

"Sleeping sickness?"

"According to the information I have inquired, the side concubine has gradually developed symptoms such as lethargy and lack of energy since about seven years ago, and now her condition has worsened to the point where she can only wake up for less than four hours a day. The side concubine's body is very weak, and she may not even last this year."

There is still such a disease! ?

"It won't be contagious, right? And can't the bishops of the Church of Light solve it?"

"Many people from the source have seen the priests of the Church of Illuminati go to the Kainos Palace, but now it seems that there should be no effect."

Du Wei frowned and said.

"It's just a sleeping sickness, but it can't even be solved by magic?"

"...No, I think it should be that the price to be paid is too high for the Kainos royal family to pay."

"You mean that King Kynos refused to save his wife?"

"...She is just a side concubine. The king's attitude towards his concubine's illness is very negative. A large part of it should be influenced by the queen. There is even information that the queen has blocked the priests of the Church of Light. Entering the palace, if it weren't for Princess Hill's hard work these years, I think that side concubine would have died in the palace long ago."

Wow... It's a typical court struggle scene. Even though the queen's son is already the crown prince, he still pursues the side concubine fiercely, and even intends to kill him.

Fortunately, their Knox Empire was very united. Du Wei thought it might be because Roland, the crown prince of the empire, was too perfect. Now, he has never heard of anyone who has any opinion on the current crown prince's succession to the throne.

If the current crown prince is like Prince Keenos...then maybe the empire will fall apart.

At this time, Du Wei suddenly thought.

"So Princess Hill has been active all these years to earn medical expenses for her mother?"

Karina thought for a while and said.

"Half and half, I guess the suppression from the queen's faction these years may have made her want to take revenge on the other party. The queen also wanted to take advantage of Princess Hill's busy search for a cure. business, but it was a trap designed by Princess Hill, and the queen who was severely punished is said to have lost a lot of money."

"You really investigated carefully, and it sounds like you admire her."

"Don't underestimate the intelligence network of merchants, especially the intelligence of the royal families of various countries is the focus of collection. You must know that most of the royal families are big customers who pay generously."

Karina sighed and continued.

"It's just that the more information I investigate, the more I feel that Princess Hill's ability is unbelievable. If the same conditions are exchanged, I will definitely not be able to achieve her current achievements."

At the age of eight, they were still growing up leisurely under the care of their elders, and they were able to achieve their current achievements because they had a huge family behind them to support and rely on them. However, Princess Hill was facing the malice from the queen while being miserable. It is said that he started from scratch to prop up the maritime trade business.

It's just a protagonist template!Why are other people's children so powerful!

Karina beside her seemed a little disappointed, and she seemed to be hit by Princess Hill who was always proud.

Du Wei comforted him.

"It's also possible that the four maids of the Destiny Sect helped plan the scheme behind Princess Hill."

Karina showed a forced smile.

"I'm fine. I admit that her ability is better than mine, but I didn't admit defeat."

It was the first time that Du Wei saw the strong and stubborn Karina who thought she was a little shorter. It seemed that she really admired the other party's ability.

Karina continued.

"A while ago, I found out that the other party had been inquiring about where the leaves of the world tree circulated, so I knew that the opportunity had come, so I went to the kingdom of elves last weekend to get this world tree bud, and I wanted to choose today Hand it over to her."

"Does selling favors make her feel indebted to you? But...uh, let me put it bluntly, if the side concubine is left alone and she dies of illness like this, wouldn't it be a bigger blow to Princess Hill?" ?”

In a sense, Karina's position should be the same as that of Qenos's queen who does not want the other party to grow stronger, but she turned around and helped Princess Hill?

"Strike? Master Du Wei, you are wrong."

"Ah? What do you say?"

"Princess Hill's personality is very similar to mine. We are all the kind of stubborn people. If it were me, if the only weakness 'family' is gone, then there is nothing to be afraid of. Even if I do No crazy revenge, and I no longer have to worry about someone doing something to my family behind my back."

"Hey hey!"

"So that concubine must be alive, because she is Princess Hill's most obvious weakness. As long as she is alive, the other party will never let her go."

It turns out that Princess Hill may be much more capable than Karina, but she has to worry about the safety of her family. Although Karina's ability is slightly weaker, the family behind her can provide her with great help.

Sure enough... having money means being able to do whatever you want!

Karina Lee showed a somewhat smug smile as if waving away the haze.

"And the most important point is that she spent so many years failing to cure her mother's illness, and I only spent a few days finding her medicinal materials for treatment. Speaking is the heaviest blow, no matter how good her ability is, this kind of love is destined to make her respect me three points when facing me, unless she can repay the favor... But I will never give her this chance .”

Good idea!The sweet little loli with twin ponytails when she was a child is now a super scheming girl!

Eighteen changes in female college?

But Du Wei was still a little worried.

"The leaf of the World Tree should not be cheap, no, the ordinary gold coins must be looked down upon by the revenge elves. You didn't do anything stupid, did you?"

The World Tree is the holy tree of elves, and only high elves are eligible to live in the core area of ​​the World Tree, let alone the young leaves of the World Tree, which have magical curative effects, will definitely not fall into the hands of outsiders.

And Karina is a half-elf with mixed blood. In the eyes of the high elves, a half-elf cannot be regarded as a member of the elves, so she must have done something to get the bud.

"Speaking of this..."

Karina's expression became a little weird.

Du Wei asked anxiously.

"What? Did you really do something stupid?"

Karina shook her head and smiled.

"No, I haven't done anything yet. I even just asked about the young leaves of the World Tree. As a result, the Elven Kingdom immediately gave me the young leaves of the World Tree."
