Tyrant Code

Gordon was silent for a moment.

In all fairness, what Atricia said made sense.After three years, it's not that he hasn't tried to unravel the curse on Sai Lun. After all, they are friends... But the more he researched, the more Goldo realized that the root of the curse was not in Sai Lun, but in a more distant place. and hidden from view.If the source of the curse cannot be found out, no matter how many times Goldo casts dispelling magic on Sai Lun, the curse will come back again, just like trees take root in the soil to absorb nutrients and grow on Sai Lun naturally.

"But is his illness really hopeless?" Goldo asked unwillingly.

Atricia glanced at him: "It's not that there is no way, but that this method is simply not feasible. Because the matter of being cursed is not something he can choose, and whether the curse can be completely removed is not at his control. It depends on the rest of their family."

Goldo: "..."

So this matter is really related to the entire royal family of Archid.

That Goldo is really out of control.

He sighed and mourned in his heart for 3 minutes for his friend.

Fortunately, according to Gordon's observation, although the curse on Sai Lun was powerful, it was not life-threatening.Whether he can break the curse in his lifetime depends on his own good fortune.

"I understand, thank you, Teacher Atricia." Gordon nodded.

Atricia seemed a little relieved: "It's good that you can listen to it."

"Why do you think I won't listen? As you said, I'm not a good person. And I can't do anything about it." Goldo asked with a smile.

Atricia glanced at him, then rummaged through another book in her own book and handed it to him.

Gordon took it over and took a look—this familiar and exaggerated cover was not the same as "Your Highness's Only Favorite Young Master" that Gordon had finished watching.

Goldo: "..."

Looking at the book in Atricia's hand, it is actually the latest one.

Gordon only felt that his cheeks were getting hot, and the corners of his eyes were twitching.

"...When did you start reading this kind of book?" Goldo asked with gritted teeth.

"I have nothing to do, I bought it to pass the time." Atrichia said without blinking, "I didn't expect that after I bought this book, I was pestered by a female student to gossip about this novel for a long time The love affair between two archetypal characters. What is the private meeting under the moon across the balcony, the candlelight starry night, the prince’s highness visits the young master’s room at night, and does not leave until the early morning... It’s really wonderful.”

Goldo: "..."

You are afraid that you have met the author of this book, that schoolgirl herself.She was also promoted the cp she was drinking.

"But it's fake. It's all fake." Goldo said with a dead face.

"I know." Atrium nodded, "If it's true, you shouldn't have reacted like this when I mentioned that His Royal Highness just now."

"So you just said that on purpose to test me?" Goldo asked.

Atrium: "Of course what I just said is true. It's just that if you really like that prince, His Royal Highness, things will become more troublesome."

Gordon: "What's the trouble?"

Atricia glanced at him, but said nothing.

The two fell into silence for a moment.

Gordon seemed to sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere. He turned his head slightly, and coughed a few times with his hands clenched into fists by his mouth: "...how about, let's not talk about this topic. By the way, teacher, this book " Where did you get the Book of Darkness? It should be a very rare book."

"This is a forbidden book." Attica said very calmly, "When I was collecting ancient books, I bought it from a merchant and brought it back to Selanka. Remember to hide it well. Once someone finds it Yes, that is the crime of exile."

Goldo: "...is it so dangerous?"

Atricia: "Of course."

Gordo looked back, the golden hair of the other party shone with a faint brilliance in the dim room, but the transparent emerald eyes seemed deeper and deeper.

Attica made a move, and her white wrists were exposed from the wide and unstained cuffs.He spread his five fingers, and the light shone through his palm, casting a shallow reflection on the desk.

"Although the Holy See prohibits any activities related to dark magic, after you finish reading this book, you will find that dark magic is not all composed of curses, and there are even many places that are more practical than light magic." He said "Just as a three-year-old child knows, when there is positive, there must be negative, and where there is light, there must be darkness. Leaving aside the folklore of the holy lord and the evil gods fighting endlessly, since there is light magic in the world, then from some kind of From a perspective, the existence of dark magic is inevitable. Some people gather dark elements, similar to priests gathering light elements, and it is as natural as eating and sleeping."

Goldo understood: "...Then do you think that dark magic also has its value?"

"Whether a thing has value or not is a relative term." Atrium shook his head, "Everyone has a different opinion on this."

Goldo said affirmatively: "But at least you haven't completely denied the significance of the existence of dark magic."

Yatricia withdrew her hand and gave him a deep look.

"If you have to think that way, then I don't need to correct you."

"However, you know the conversation today. If it is leaked, it will not be as simple as being sentenced to exile."

Goldo: "..."

He covered the cover of "Dark Canon" and stroked it lightly, only feeling the coolness on the surface of the black wax stone slowly climb up along his fingertips.

"Okay, I've given you the gift, and it's time to return the notes." Atricia changed the subject and said.

"Okay, then I'll bring it to you tomorrow." Gordon said with a nod.

But Atricia refused: "I'll go get it with you. I have a class tomorrow, and I want those notes tonight."

Goldo agreed, and wrapped the "Dark Canon" tightly again with parchment, held it in his arms, took a light breath, and said, "Then let's set off quickly."

Yatricia raised her eyebrows lightly: "Be more natural. Your appearance is the most suspicious."

Goldo: "..." That's right.

He changed his posture and put the "Dark Canon" on his chest with one hand, which made it much more natural.

Gordon followed Atricia out of the teacher's room, locked the door, walked through a small rose garden, and walked towards the dormitory.

It was a starless and moonless night.The verdant trees cast dim shadows on the ground, and the road looked darker than usual.

Gordo reached out and lit up an aura.A ball of gentle light just floated around him and Atrium, shining leisurely.

"It's great to be able to keep your magic power stable in the air for such a long time." Atricia glanced at the lazy ball of light and said.

Gordon was slightly taken aback: "Isn't this an easy task?"

Yatricia smiled softly: "It's just for you."

They entered the dormitory building and climbed the stairs.Goldo fumbled for a silver key from his waist, and while opening the door, he tilted his head and said to Atricia, "I'll pour you a glass of water later—"

However, before Goldo could enter the door, a figure rushed towards him with a low growl.

"Bang."

The moment Goldo saw the scene inside the door, he closed the door with lightning speed.

There was a muffled sound from the other end of the door panel.After a moment of silence, there was a sound of scratching nails.

Goldo: "..."

Atricia: "..."

Yatrixia turned her head and glanced at Gordon blankly: "I told you, leave him alone. This is what happens when you meddle in your own business."

The person who wanted to attack Gordon just now was clearly Sai Lun with a grim face.

Gordon twitched the corners of his eyes, a little puzzled: "But today is not a full moon."

"Generally speaking, this curse occurs once a month. But if there is any special stimulus, this pattern will change." Atricia sighed softly, "What are you going to do with him?"

It seems to be quite difficult to subdue Sai Lun silently.

At this moment, the scratching sound behind the door panel stopped, and a voice sounded faintly in the darkness: "...help...life!"

Goldo: "..."

Goldo: "!!!"

Is this guy still sane? !

But it is also true, today is not a full moon, but Sai Lun appeared in Gordon's room, it seems that he himself realized something was wrong and came here temporarily.Moreover, he hasn't made much noise since he went crazy. It seems that he still has a sliver of reason.

Gordon said with some embarrassment: "Teacher, I think I should help him again."

Atricia nodded and said nothing.

Gordon took a deep breath, leaned against the door and said, "Stand back a little, I'm going to open the door."

But there was no response from the other side of the door panel.

Gordo was heartbroken, twisted the key, and opened the door——

He found Sai Lun lying half dead on his bookshelf.

The blond boy twitched lightly, a glaring bruise grew under the corner of his eyes.He gritted his teeth, sweating profusely, as if he was suffering from great pain, the light in his eyes was flickering, and the only remaining rationality seemed to be a reed floating in the sea.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Gordon raised his hand to dispel the magic, and then knocked Sai Lun completely unconscious.

Seeing Sai Lun's body go limp, Gordon sighed softly, looked around, and found that the chair had fallen over, the books had been turned in a mess, and the paper was shredded under his feet.

Atricia was frowning as he watched Goldo deal with Sai Lun, but suddenly a large piece of paper under his feet caught his attention.

Atricia: "..."

He knelt down, picked up a piece of yellowed paper, looked at it carefully for a while, and found that the faintly faded handwriting on it was written by him.

Finally, his icy gaze rested on Salem's sleeping, unconscious face.

Atricia: "..."

Thus, Sai Lun vaguely heard the following conversation in his coma.

"Teacher, don't... he is a sick man after all! He is the prince, and we can't afford it if he is fooled!"

"Teacher, put down the chair first!"

Atricia: Tell me, how do you want to die?
