Since he has to wait for the news from Amir and has to prepare a lot of things with Sirius, Hill can't accompany Kiki to wait for Xiuqi's return in the square, and he doesn't want him to do so.After hesitating for a while, Keech didn't stay behind, and followed Hill back to the government affairs hall.Instead, Joey volunteered to accompany Li Qi to continue distributing water and food to the residents of the city, and to complete his guard work by the way.

When they returned to the government affairs hall, Seres and A-Dong had already woken up, the four of them had breakfast together, and then went to Sires' office together.Sirius and Hill discussed government affairs, while Kiki and Adong sat aside in a daze.

As always, A-Dong stared at Kiki to puff her up, but Kiki didn't even look back at her, and waited anxiously for Xiuqi's return.

——At the beginning, Xiu Qi firmly disagreed with him going to the Magic Association.

Keech will not forget this, and even involuntarily suspects that the disappearance of his family is also related to his sneaking away from home.

——If Xiu Qi still disagrees with him continuing to be a magician, what should he do?

Thinking of this, Kiki couldn't help looking at Hill who was consulting the map with Sirius.

Hill needs him, and he cannot do without Hill.

Kiki took a deep breath and told himself silently that he was no longer a child who could only listen to Xiuqi's words. Two years of meditation practice would not be wasted. At the mercy of.

Before Kiki could completely calm down, Joey knocked on the door and walked in.

"Mage Kiki, your brother... is back." After greeting Sirius, Joey turned to Kiki and said, with an indescribably weird expression.

Kiki immediately stood up from the chair, turned his head to look at Hill, and wanted him to accompany him to meet Xiu Qi, but he couldn't say anything.

Hill didn't even want to let Kiki go out by himself, and immediately turned to Sirius and said, "Your Highness, can I leave with Kiki magician for a while?"

"Of course." Sirius agreed with a smile, "If possible, please also convey my invitation to the brothers and sisters of Magician Kiki. I hope to have dinner with them tonight."

"Your Highness." Before Hill could answer, Joey stopped him embarrassingly, "This... I'm afraid it's inconvenient."

"Why?" Sirius raised an eyebrow in confusion.

"I just found out." Joey hesitated for a moment, and said, "Kiki Magician's brother...is a priest."

"Priest?" Everyone, including Keech, was stunned.

Hill immediately turned to look at Keech, "Your brother is a priest?"

"He... just went to a church school." Keech was equally puzzled.

"I used to think he was just wearing priest's clothes. After the disaster, there was a shortage of supplies, and many civilians wore what they had..." Joey glanced at Kiki's face, swallowed the rest of the words, and said instead, " But today, I heard Priest Dominique calling him Priest Kamberg, so I made a special inquiry, and only then did I know that he has joined the Holy See and has become an official priest.”

--how can that be?

Not only Keech was puzzled, but Hill also found it hard to believe.As far as he knows, the Holy See has to go through at least three years of probation before officially conferring the title of priest on those who want to join their faith, and Keech has only been away from home for two years, how could his brother become a priest? Woolen cloth?

"Anyway, I'll accompany you to see him first." Hill suppressed his doubts and motioned for Joey to lead them.

As soon as he got out of the gate of the government affairs hall, Kiqi saw Xiuqi standing in the middle of the square, and Liqi following behind him.

Not seeing each other for two years, Xiu Qi has become a mature young man. His height hasn't changed much, but his body has obviously become stronger.Although they also have black hair, Xiu Qi's face is not as similar to Keech as Li Qi, but it is enough to identify the blood relationship between them.As far as the first impression is concerned, Xiu Qi is far more handsome than Kiki, and his demeanor is more intimidating, with a kind of coldness and majesty unique to a superior.The black priest's robe also looks very decent on him, unlike the slender Keech, who can't always support his own magic robe.

——Xiu Qi is already 20 years old this year!

Keech thought silently.

At this moment, Xiu Qi also saw Ki Qi, but he didn't come to meet him, and he couldn't see the joy of reunion after a long absence. He just raised his head slightly and stood there expressionlessly.

Keech couldn't help but feel a little guilty.Every time Xiu Qi showed this expression, nine out of ten times he would beat someone up.He immediately stopped habitually, refusing to move on.

Keech didn't move, and Hill couldn't go there first, so he could only stand with Keech.

Joey didn't come with them at all, and stopped at the door, watching the excitement from a distance.

Seeing that Kiki refused to go forward, Xiuqi said impatiently, "Come here."

Kitsch bit his lip, feeling that today must be impossible to escape, so he walked up to Xiuqi again.

As Kiki expected, as soon as he stood in front of Xiu Qi, Xiu Qi raised his arm, slapped him on the cheek, and slapped him hard with a "slap--".

Hilton next to him was stunned, but before he could make a move, Xiu Qi spoke again.

"This is the last time I hit you." Xiu Qi said coldly.

"If there is a next time, I will fight back." Kiki stared at Xiuqi stubbornly, and replied not to be outdone.When he arrived at Xiu Qi's side, he had already quietly tested his control over the surrounding elements.As he estimated, the practice of meditation made him control the elements far beyond Xiu Qi, and he no longer needed to be afraid of him.

Xiu Qi ignored him, looked sideways at Hill beside him, and asked, "Who is he?"

"Hill Balotelli, Keech's friend." Hill tried to maintain a smile, but he couldn't smile after all.

He didn't like this Shukey, Hill thought, not only because he hit Keech, but because of the way he looked at him from above.

——Obviously just a commoner, a lowest-level monk!

The way Xiu Qi looked at him reminded Hill involuntarily of the days when he was borrowed from the Magic Association, and he immediately became unhappy.

"I want to talk to my brother alone, please avoid it for a while." Xiu Qi didn't care about Hill's feelings at all, and gave the order to evict the guest coldly.

"I'm sorry, I can't do it." Hill immediately lost his politeness, "Also, this is not a suitable place for conversation."

"Xiu Qi, take Kiki home and talk about it." Li Qi, who had been frowning tangledly behind Xiu Qi, finally couldn't help but speak.

Xiu Qi was noncommittal, looked at Hill who was about the same height as him again, turned around and walked towards the church.

"Let's go, Keech, go take a look at our current residence." Li Qi immediately said to Keech, and then smiled apologetically at Hill, indicating that he could also come along.

Hill turned his head and gestured to Joey, telling him not to worry, and then followed Li Qi with Keech.

The residence of Xiu Qi and Li Qi was not far behind the church. From the outside, it seemed that they had also been hit by the earthquake. Most of the second floor had fallen, and the walls were also a little crooked.But after entering the door, the ruins outside disappeared without a trace, the walls were white and tight, the floor was neat and flat, and the furniture showed no signs of damage.Except that you can't go up to the second floor, everything else is the same as before the earthquake.

"We need to talk alone." After entering the living room, Xiu Qi said to Ki Qi again.

Keech glanced at Hill hesitantly, and seeing Hill nodded to him, Likki also said beside him: "Don't worry, Keech, I will entertain Mr. Balotelli well."

Only then did Kiki turn his head and follow Xiuqi into the next door.

As soon as they left, Li Qi immediately smiled at Hill and said, "I'm going to make tea."

"Thank you." Hill also showed his usual decent smile. When he saw Lizzy entering the kitchen next to him, he immediately took out the Whispering Stone from his pocket and stuffed it into his ear.

The room Xiu Qi took Kid Qi into was obviously his own bedroom.Just like when I was at home before, it was clean and tidy, without any unnecessary clutter.

"Father, mother, and grandmother?" Keech spoke first.He had spied the entire house with his powers, and there was no one else in there except them.

"Grandmother died." Xiu Qi said indifferently, "However, it wasn't during the earthquake. She passed away two months ago, and died without suffering any pain."

"What about father and mother?" Kiki suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Mother died too." Xiu Qi lowered his eyelids, "On the second night after you left."

"Could it be... because of me?" Kiki asked in a daze.For a moment, he felt that his whole head was empty, but his heart was filled with some strange emotion, as if it might burst at any moment.

"In my opinion, grandma is the culprit who forced my mother to death." Xiu Qi replied indifferently, "After finding out that you left home, grandma insisted on chasing you back, but father and mother felt that there was another magician in the family." There's nothing wrong with that. So the grandmother who was violated said something in a fit of anger, something that a mother couldn't afford."

"What is it?"

"The real relationship between father and mother. Mother is not an orphan adopted by grandmother, she is her own daughter. Father and mother are not just husband and wife, but brothers and sisters, half-siblings." Xiu Qi said expressionlessly , "And we are the result of their incest."

Kitsch was stunned, speechless in astonishment.

"My mother couldn't bear this fact, so she hanged herself in the bedroom that night. And my father also ran away from home and disappeared." Xiu Qi continued, "Li Qi didn't know that her mother was dead, she only heard When it came to my grandmother, I didn't see my mother's death. I told her that they didn't want to face us again, so they ran away from home together. Of course, Lizzie may also know, or guess, just pretend she doesn't know .”

"She probably didn't know that when she saw me, she didn't cry." Kiki said with his head down.

"She stopped crying a long time ago, but it's not because of the so-called strength, but she knows that tears are meaningless." Xiu Qi looked at Kiki meaningfully, and said mockingly, "Kiki, you are really the best in the family. Stupid kid."

Kiki frowned, not understanding what Xiu Qi meant, but the stuff in his heart seemed to dissipate a little, not as depressed as before.But after hesitating for a while, he asked again: "If I don't leave, will these things not happen?"

"I don't think so." Xiu Qi shook his head indifferently, "There is nothing in this world that can be hidden forever, even if the relationship between father and mother has not been revealed, it will explode soon when my grandmother asks me to marry Li Qi .”

"You marry Lizzy?!" Kitsch opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"According to my grandmother, this is a tradition in our family." Xiu Qi didn't continue, and instead asked, "How is Rocky? With his brains, he should have a better life than you."

——This is really not certain!

Keech thought about this, but said: "I don't know, we haven't been together since we arrived at the Magic Association. However, he has passed the intermediate magic assessment and is also an intermediate magician."

"He is indeed talented." Xiu Qi nodded lightly, as if he was not surprised at all.

"And you, how did you become a priest?" Keech asked back.

"Maybe it's similar to the reason why you insist on becoming a magician." Xiu Qi said, "It's just that I prefer divine art to magic, and in my opinion, our power is closer to that of a god, or, that is simply The power of God."

"What the hell are we...?" Keech asked suspiciously.

"Chimera." Xiu Qi replied word by word, "This is not only a surname, but also a description. According to the records in the holy scriptures, it is - an inhuman being, a child of immorality, and a descendant of gods."

"Descendants of the gods?" Kiqi looked at Xiuqi with suspicion.Like Hill, he doesn't believe in gods, nor does he feel that gods ever existed.

"According to grandma, according to the records handed down by the Chimera family themselves, Chimera is a child born after intercourse between a god and a mortal, so it can control the power of the gods with a mortal body." Xiu Qi said lightly, "I am Similar sayings were also found in the sacred scriptures of the Holy See, but it is quite unbearable. However, this family is indeed hard to flatter. They have relied on inbreeding for generations to reproduce, not only our parents, but also grandma. She gave birth to our father through incest with her own brother. Moreover, according to my grandmother's last words before she died, I want to marry Li Qi."

Keech was completely speechless. He thought his grandmother was weird before, but he didn't expect her to be so crazy.

"You—you don't really want to marry Lizzie, do you?" Keech couldn't help asking.
