The day when I was upper body by the host [Quick Transmigration]

Soon, Augustine also successfully solved Denton.To him, this seemed to be a trivial matter that couldn't be easier. He didn't even summon the staff, and directly used the most common and simplest spell to kill Denton on the spot.

After staring at the place where Simmel disappeared for a while, Lu Xiujin bent down and picked up the lightsaber that fell on the ground.He watched the lightsaber gradually disappear from his hand, and stared at his empty palm in a daze, until Augustine walked over and patted him on the shoulder in doubt, Lu Xiujin suddenly woke up: "What's wrong? Someone is here again?"

"No." Seeing Lu Xiujin's suspicious and neurotic appearance, Augustine couldn't help but rubbed his hair, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"

Hearing this, Lu Xiujin was stunned for a while, then shook his head.His face was a little pale, his eyes turned around Augustine, and after wandering on the opposite wall for a long time, he smiled wryly and said in a low voice: "It's... my first time killing people, I'm just not used to it."

Augustine was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood.However, facing this kind of problem, he was helpless, so he had no choice but to cast a cleansing spell, then pulled Lu Xiujin to sit on the ground, took out the note that he had casually put in his pocket before, and spread it out. open.

There were only seven words written on the note: Be careful Christian.

Lu Xiujin took the initiative to lean forward, thinking that there would be some important content, after reading the note, he looked at Augustine in dismay. He was about to say something, but saw that the note in Augustine's hand started to ignite spontaneously. Lu Xiujin exclaimed in surprise: " It's burning!"

Augustine had no reaction to this.He looked at the note with an unfathomable expression and burned himself completely within a few seconds, leaving no debris. After a few seconds of silence, he whispered: "That guy Joshua...is in trouble .”

"Then...do you want to help him?" Thinking of what he heard from Denton about Joshua and Augustine's past, Lu Xiujin asked cautiously.

"No." Augustine shook his head, and decisively answered Lu Xiujin's question.He snorted coldly, and although he didn't say it, his disgust and dislike for Joshua were all written on his face, and even the tone of his speech became extremely bad: "Have you forgotten? That Denton just now That’s right,” Augustine continued with a sneer, “Joshua is the one I’m going to blow up to death, and now I wish he would die in that Christian’s hands, and I will help him when I have nothing to do.”

Even when we first met, Lu Xiujin had never seen Augustine who was full of hostility and exuded aggression all over his body.He stared at Augustine in amazement for a long time, and in the end, he wisely stopped continuing the topic just now and asked instead: "Then what are we going to do next? Should we go deeper here, or leave directly?"

Augustine pondered for two seconds, and replied decisively: "Go on." He looked up and down the passage in front of him with probing eyes, and then continued: "Joshua is not a person who will do useless things, since she If you specially use a magic circle to hide this place, then this place must have its special features."

With that said, Augustine walked into the passage first.He stood in the passage for a while, but he didn't see any weapons rushing out to attack him, so he stretched out his hand to Lu Xiujin: "Come here, Joshua should shut down all the organs here, we are safe now .”

This passage full of traps was so long that it completely exceeded Lu Xiujin's expectation.He walked for a long time, the long time of tense spirit and the battle just now, as well as this long, endless road and this eternal gray, made him extremely exhausted from body to heart.He followed Augustine for a while, and finally begged for mercy, completely unbearable: "Can we take a break? I really can't hold on."

"Tired?" Augustine was surprised: "Take a rest when you're tired." He used a spell to clean the ground a little, pulled Lu Xiujin to sit on the ground, leaned against the wall, and looked at the dusty wall opposite. Know what to think.

He stared blankly for a while, then suddenly looked at Lu Xiujin, and said, "Are you curious about me and Joshua?"

Looking at Lu Xiujin who had written "I want to know" all over his face, he nodded in confusion, and then shook his head quickly. For some reason, Augustine suddenly burst out laughing.He chuckled twice, leaned against the wall with some relaxation, and said casually and solemnly: "If you want to know... just ask me."

"If you asked me, I would definitely answer."

Lu Xiujin was taken aback.

He didn't expect Augustine to say such a sentence at all, he was completely stupid, but soon, he reacted again, put this sentence behind him, looked at Augustine's side face, and asked, "Why did you blow up?" Where is Joshua? Aren't you brothers?"

"Brothers, that's right..." Augustine smiled: "But brothers, there are also brothers who are respectful, and there are also brothers who fight against each other."

After brainstorming what he saw in modern society, those wealthy families that were well-known for sharing inheritance, Lu Xiujin nodded silently.

Seeing that Lu Xiujin agreed with his statement, Augustine laughed even more. "Right?" He said with a smile, "Me and Joshua, of course it's the latter one." As he spoke, the smile on Augustine's face gradually faded, and he looked confused, as if he had completely fallen into the past. a memory.

"Me and Joshua... have not had a good relationship since we were young. We are not much different in age, and we have been fighting for all kinds of things since we were young. When we grow up, we are a little better, and we are both sensible. On the surface, we are peaceful, but in reality There is also a dark tide in the world, just like those politicians in the imperial capital, if the other party says a word, you have to guess his intention for a long time."

Seeing the obvious stunned expression on Lu Xiujin's face, Augustine couldn't help but smiled at him again, and asked Lu Xiujin: "It's unbelievable, right?"

"Yes, there is a little..." Lu Xiujin admitted blankly, blinking his eyes, as if suddenly remembering something, he hurriedly asked: "Are you and Joshua half-brothers?"

Anticipating that Lu Xiujin would have this doubt, Augustine denied it straight away: "No, we are brothers and the same parents." He said, shrugged with a smile, and said, "If you are not from our world, you will feel that you are not. The relationship between the biological parents may be a little closer... Actually, it's not."

Augustine propped his face, sighed, and said: "After I came to this world, I checked the rules of your world... It is to make a will, and the inheritance is distributed according to the wishes of the parties, right?"

Lu Xiujin nodded sharply.

After being affirmed, Augustine went on to say: "Our place is not. In order to guarantee the rights of the wife, all the husband's inheritance shall be inherited by the main wife and the sons born by the main wife. If the main wife dies and the second wife gives birth to a son, he can only inherit one. A small portion of the property..."

Augustine looked at Lu Xiujin and asked, "Do you understand what this means? It means that in the competition for inheritance, the children of the first wife are the most fierce. No matter whether it is a sequel or a lover, there is nothing comparable. Sex——" Augustine added word by word: "And, once you don't follow this rule, no matter who you are, it will be a capital offense."

Lu Xiujin's eyes widened.Hearing this statement, he couldn't help stammering: "No, no way? It's just an inheritance... Isn't it the right of the person concerned to dispose of it?"

"Of course not." Augustine laughed. There was helplessness in his smile, but it was more sarcasm: "Who can have an inheritance, and the inheritance will cause fights, who is it usually? A magician, a knight." Augustine's face Become solemn, he took a deep look at Lu Xiujin, saw that he was still confused, and his expression softened, and continued: "As magicians, as knights, serving the king is our lifelong pursuit—"

The corner of Augustine's mouth curled up into a mocking smile: "Even if you sacrifice your life for the king, you won't hesitate."

Lu Xiujin was taken aback for a moment, he pursed his lips, and asked in a low voice, "Are you too?"

"I used to be." Augustine nodded, shook his head again, and said in a low voice, "But not now." He smiled and rubbed the messy hair on Lu Xiujin's head, and subconsciously put his arms around Lu Xiujin's shoulders into his arms Rita, his eyes looked at the wall without blinking, as if he could see his past from the wall.

"My family is considered one of the best magician families in the imperial capital, and even in the whole country. My parents are saints of the law. They are too strong and loyal..." Augustine said with a sigh: "For the king, For the empire, they are willing to give everything. Whether it is their own life, or my life and Joshua's life."

The moment he heard the last sentence, Lu Xiujin's expression froze.He turned his head to look at Augustine tremblingly, and even stretched out his hand to squeeze his hand, as if he wanted to confirm whether the Augustine who was with him now was a real person.

Augustine was amused by Lu Xiujin's nervous behavior, he lightly knocked on Lu Xiujin's head, and said angrily, "Don't pinch it! I'm a living person!"

Hearing this, Lu Xiujin let go of his hand with a dry smile.However, although his behavior was a bit rude, Augustine was not very angry. He pondered for a while, organized his words, and then continued: "Me and Joshua were considered great geniuses at the time."

Having said that, Augustine's face is inevitably a little proud.The smile on his face grew a little bit more, and he continued: "Our parents are very talented magicians themselves, and they are also saints of the law. Under such an environment, Joshua and I have a higher magical talent than ordinary people. It’s a big cut. It’s easy for us to become a junior mage or an intermediate mage, even if it’s the threshold of a high-level mage that many hot guys can’t cross in their entire lives, it’s a piece of cake for us.”

Augustine took a deep breath, recalling what happened in the past little by little, and slowly told Lu Xiujin: "However... probably because of the big tree, our family was finally favored by the king because of its strong talent. It has become a thorn in his flesh, a thorn in his side."

"Then... the king asked someone to assassinate you?" Lu Xiujin guessed, but once he thought of what Augustine had just added, he immediately overturned his guess just now, and asked again: "The king asked your parents to take the two of you For...uh," Lu Xiujin stammered: "Sacrifice?"

As if he didn't expect Lu Xiujin to say such a word suddenly, Augustine was stunned for two seconds, and soon burst into laughter.While laughing, he kept patting Lu Xiujin's head with his hands, and when the laugh was over, Augustine leaned in front of Lu Xiujin, a little pampering, and also kindly asked: "What are you thinking about? Ask this question."

Augustine's fierce reaction startled Lu Xiujin, he twitched his lips, and finally couldn't help rolling his eyes: "Didn't you mislead me before?"

"My fault, my fault." Augustine surrendered with a smile, and he put his head on Lu Xiujin's head. In an instant, his nose was filled with the smell of the shampoo Lu Xiujin used.

Smells the same as my hair.

Augustine thought in his mind, somehow satisfied with this realization, and even connected to say that the memories he had tried to avoid for a long time seemed not so bad for a moment.

However, what happened has always happened.It is difficult to color those black and white memories of all the good things that happened during the narrative.

"That should have happened when I was 15 years old. Someone broke into my house, took advantage of my parents' unpreparedness, and attacked them. Because of some kind of drug, it was difficult for them to communicate with magic elements—" the look on Augustine's face It is unspeakably sad and ironic: "Two all-powerful Dharma saints who turn their hands into clouds and rain, turned into two useless ordinary people in the end."

"They have always thought highly of themselves, so how can they tolerate such a thing?" Augustine snorted coldly: "But the king at that time seemed to be more tolerant. His contribution will never be forgotten.”

Augustine licked his dry lips, and continued: "They were loyal believers of the empire and the king. Now that they have done something like this, they are even more grateful to the king... This is what the king wants."

"When they regarded the king as their god, the king suddenly sent someone to tell them secretly." Augustine pulled a horrible smile on his face, and he said slowly, "'The flesh and blood of your own children can heal Mages lose their elemental affinity and can no longer communicate with magical elemental diseases."

Augustine's words were not long and his voice was not loud.But the moment he finished speaking, the temperature in the entire passage seemed to drop by more than ten degrees in an instant, and Lu Xiujin even had the illusion that countless people and countless eyes were staring at him.

He stared wide-eyed and looked at Augustine in disbelief. Suddenly, the hairs on his back stood up.

The hair is creepy.

The author has something to say:

This chapter does not mean to discredit the role of parents, it is only necessary for the plot.

There are many good parents in the world, and of course, there are some who are not worthy of being parents.
