I'm not a magician
Chapter 72
"Shall we make a deal?" Catherine asked.
Ji Chi glanced at her sideways, with a calm expression, as if he didn't care about the threat to the young master's life or death at all. He found a step by the fountain and sat down, quietly looking at the bright palace where singing and dancing were flourishing not far away.
After he disappeared, the banquet seemed to have nothing to do with him. Night Breeze was very comfortable, the environment was quiet, and the scenery was beautiful. It would be even better if there was no nervous little princess by the side.
Seeing his very contented face, the little princess also smiled slightly, went to sit beside him, and looked at the soft halo from the glass windows of the palace with Ji Chi.
"You don't seem to care at all. Can I ask why?" Catherine's voice was sweet and gentle. If there was no invisibility potion, the scene of the two sitting together would only make people feel warm and peaceful.
Ji Chi propped his hands on the steps behind him, stretched his long legs, and shook his ankle: "I also want to ask you, how can you kill him?"
Ji Chi softly read the data above her head: "Character [Catherine], level [lv.4], occupation [none], blood volume [80/80]..."
She is very weak, so weak that even a hard-working commoner on the street can easily suppress her. This kind of physique is not uncommon on the earth, but in the Demon Sword Continent, which relies on force value, it is definitely at the bottom.
Catherine understood those words, but she didn't quite understand what they meant when they were combined. However, she could hear "unemployed" very clearly. After all, it was a defect that she had been criticized since she was a child.
The smile on the corner of Catherine's mouth didn't fade away, her clear eyes blinked slowly, her slender eyelashes looked like a night butterfly flapping its wings: "Sure enough, you also think that being unemployed is a waste, you can't do anything, you were born to be Dominated by someone, right?"
Ji Chi: "There's no need to misinterpret my meaning...I'm just reminding you that no matter how squeamish Brandon is, he's still a smart and motivated magician. It's not that easy to kill him for no reason."
Catherine listened very seriously: "Yeah, so you still have the idea that being unemployed means that you can't compare with anyone."
"But, Ji Chi." Catherine suddenly leaned in front of him, "Don't you also hate the feeling of being bound by fate? Didn't you waver for a moment and want to save me? Am I also struggling against fate? You You should understand me."
Ji Chi narrowed his eyes and looked at her coldly: "Have you investigated me?"
"What kind of investigation does this need? I can tell at a glance." Catherine looked straight into his eyes. "I can also tell that we are the same kind of people, because we all have powerful souls."
Ji Chi frowned and avoided the little girl. He really wanted to believe that she was a seriously ill secondary school patient. Unfortunately, Catherine had an inexplicable and dangerous feeling, not from strength, but from a deeper level of tenacity.
The little princess tilted her head with a naive look: "I really need this invisibility potion. It can not only save my fate, but also save many people. Do you want to watch us live a miserable life? ?”
Ji Chi stood up coldly: "Don't secretly change concepts, and don't kidnap morals, I'm not that capable."
Catherine nodded vigorously and looked up at him: "Yes! Of course you can save everyone, the only difference is whether you are willing to do it or not. Just like now, you can actually save Brandon, but it's a pity you don't want to .”
This sounded a bit strange, Ji Chi frowned and looked at the little girl.
The little girl smiled sweetly: "Life is as bright as a fire, then die in ashes!"
Boom—a huge explosion sounded from the quiet flower beds of the palace, and the orange flames soaring into the sky were more dazzling than the resplendent palace, illuminating half of the palace.
The sudden burst of fire light shone on his face, and Ji Chi's ugly face became clearer.
The explosion site is where Brandon is.
Catherine giggled: "Look, you should promise me quickly."
Ji Chi's black pupils were filled with anger, and he turned his head to look at her deeply: "Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
Catherine raised her chin triumphantly, like a proud little magpie: "How can a puppet princess who is unprofessional kill the extremely talented young earl? Compared to me, another teenager who disappeared in the middle of the night is more suspicious!"
Ji Chi stared at her for a while, then smiled slightly, his mysterious black pupils rippled in the night: "Why, if someone wants to wrong me, do you believe that the young master will burn the whole palace?"
Catherine blinked: "What are you talking about? Where did the dead young master come from—"
"Ahhh——" A familiar girlish scream came from the explosion, and the scream was full of air, and it was obvious that she had suffered a serious psychological injury.
"Who's going to kill me!" The young master's red hair was curled up more and more by the flames. He turned his head angrily, but when he saw the charred and blackened corpse on the ground, he couldn't help it. I rushed to the flower bed and had a yue.
Surrounded by guards, the king who hurried over turned green when he saw this scene.
His favorite flower bonsai was ruined in a mess like this, which only made him feel tight in his chest. When he saw the second prince who was half body bloody, he became really anxious and angry: "Oh my God, Louis! Hurry up and save him!" He! Hurry up and find out who is causing trouble! If you hurt my son like this, I will let him die in the fire!"
William, who was not far away, hurried over. Seeing Louis' miserable state, he showed an untimely joy on his face, but was quickly suppressed, and ran up anxiously: "Brother, how are you? Can you still open your eyes?" Can you open your eyes? Can you still talk? You have to hold on!"
Louis was a little dazed by the bombing, he raised his head with difficulty, and looked at his body: "Well...it's nothing, it's just missing an arm and a kidney...oh, the intestines are about to flow out, help me out. "
His tone was very calm, as if he was used to this kind of injury.
Eldest Prince & King & Young Master: "..." What has happened to you before?
The king hurriedly gave Louis a bottle of the best potion, and his trauma was recovering rapidly, but it would take a few days for his arm to return to its original state.
Seeing that Louis got up and was still looking around for his belongings that had been blown away, the king was finally relieved. He frowned and looked at Brandon, with a very bad tone: "What happened just now?"
Brandon's face was pale. Compared with the second prince, he looked more like the one who was seriously injured. He tried hard not to think about the black, red and black spots on the ground, and said in a low voice, "I don't know... I'm just talking to you." His Royal Highness Louis was speaking, a gardener suddenly rushed towards me, if His Royal Highness Louis wasn't blocking me, I might..."
The king's face became worse and worse: "So that person came for you? What good did you do!"
The king was so startled that he lost his mind, and his first reaction was to blame Brandon for almost hurting his own children, or the hope of the royal family.
Brandon pursed his lips tightly, his eyes full of annoyance.
"Your Majesty, what's the point of questioning Brandon now? Shouldn't we find out who the mastermind behind it is? A little gardener can't afford to buy a Molotov cocktail with such pure magic power." A clear voice came from the side, Also with anger and majesty.
Earl Elliot looked straight at the king without fear, his dignified gown covered with a thin layer of purple-blue flame that only the purest magic could do.
Also as the father who almost lost his child, the earl was much more frightened than the king. Seeing him interrogating Brandon indiscriminately now, he was also very angry.
The king's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help looking away. He took a deep breath of the depression in his heart, and retreated a step: "You are right, I am in a hurry."
He glanced around and looked at the trembling guards: "You are also nearby, have you noticed anything wrong?"
The guards glanced at each other hurriedly and shook their heads hesitantly. The king paid great attention to this garden and would send a gardener to trim it from time to time. Although it was indeed strange that there was a gardener staying at this time, they didn't think too much about it for a while. expected that……
The king gave them a cold gouging look: "What a waste."
"Father." After listening to a guard's whisper, William suddenly spoke out, with an anxious expression on his face, "There is indeed something wrong, Ji Chi and Catherine are missing!"
When the king heard it at first, he was even more shocked: "What! Something happened to Catherine too!"
William guessed with embarrassment: "Could it be Ji Chi...Maybe my sister noticed something wrong and was taken away by him?"
When Brandon heard this, he immediately turned his head and glared at him: "How is that possible! Why does Ji Chi have any reason to kill me?"
William looked at him firmly: "Isn't the girl you like the same? How do you think he, as a commoner, robbed the earl's son? Are you sure he doesn't hate you?"
The young master didn't expect that the hole he unintentionally dug would eventually implicate the two of them, and he retorted blushingly: "You're talking nonsense! That's not at all...that's..."
William became more determined in his guess, raised the corner of his mouth, and forced him to ask, "Did I say something wrong?"
The young master roared in his heart, it was a big mistake, okay!That girl is played by Ji Chi, okay?But I can't say it okay!Otherwise, Ji Chi will really kill me, okay?
So, the young master in everyone's eyes was speechless.
William lowered his eyes, concealing the surprise in his eyes, and continued: "And the gardener is a commoner. At this banquet, no one will know a few commoners, right? The most likely one is Ji Chi."
"Hey——" St. Keli folded her arms and laughed as if she was watching a nonsensical farce. Who has a brain?"
The people around knew that she was the holy and gentle saint in the past, and they looked at her like a ghost after hearing this.
The king and William were blatantly ridiculed, and their faces were ugly.
The countess chuckled comfortably: "There's so much noise, otherwise just ask Ji Chi, he'll be here soon."
As soon as the countess finished speaking, Ji Chi hurried out from behind a flower bed, followed by a timid little girl.
The invisibility potion that Ji Chi used in the palace didn't last long, and without the potion's battery life, their invisibility effect was lifted after a while.
Catherine's deer eyes were watery, and she said in a trembling voice, "This, what's going on..."
"Oh my darling, as long as you are fine." The king stepped forward to hug her, stroked her smooth hair, and asked with his head down, "Did anyone bully you? Don't be afraid to speak up, father will help you decide .”
Catherine's moist eyes trembled slightly when she saw the intact Brandon, she opened her mouth and said in a low voice, "No, I'm fine...did something happen just now?"
William glanced at St. Colly with complicated eyes, quickly explained the matter, and asked eagerly, "Did Catherine notice anything?"
It turned out that the second brother protected Brandon... Catherine lowered her eyes, secretly annoyed, she was too excited for a while, and forgot Louis's affection for the earl's family, which led to the deviation of the result.
Catherine reflected on herself, but she still felt something was wrong in her heart, as if some details had been overlooked by everyone.
Ji Chi glanced at the scene of corpses strewn all over the scene, his eyes were unclear.With such a big explosion, even with Louis protecting him, the young master might not be able to survive all of them.
However, Brandon didn't suffer any harm now, except for his scorched and torn clothes and his look of distress.
This is the legendary equipment taking effect. Ji Chi glanced at the young master's armor value, [9906/10000], well, it's enough for him to resist another 99 explosions, and one attack a day is enough for three months.
Ji Chi breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this was a small scene.
"I didn't notice anything... I've been with Ji Chi all the time, and I don't know anything." Catherine froze for a long time before answering, her voice was trembling when she listened carefully, and her pitiful appearance seemed very pampering.
St. Kelly squinted her eyes when she heard the words. The image of this princess was very weak. Just like her not long ago, no one would doubt her holiness.But it's a bit too much force, especially for those of them who are familiar with Ji Chi.
Sure enough, the king became more suspicious when he heard it, and asked, "What are you doing with Ji Chi? Did he be rude to you?"
"He..." Catherine hesitated. She was considering whether to frame Ji Chi. Although she really wanted to see him suffer, it wouldn't be worth it if her father really executed him.
"Instead of blindly suspecting, why don't you check the murderer?" The countess Tingting walked out from the earl, gracefully closed her snow-white silver fan, and touched the broken corpses on the ground.
William glanced at the messy ground in disgust, and immediately looked away: "It's all broken like this, what else can I check..."
The Countess smiled, and asked Louis as if she was teaching, "What do you think, is there any useful information here, Your Highness Louis?"
Louis carefully observed the dirty lawn, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Yes, the blood is still there."
The countess nodded in satisfaction: "That's right, soldiers are the most sensitive to blood, and every drop of blood contains information about the enemy."
The countess took off the silk gloves and folded them up neatly. Her every move was elegant and dignified, but in the next second, she knelt down and caressed a bloody stump on the lawn with her scarred fingertips. Without hesitation, he clicked his tongue again.
"Hmm..." The countess closed her eyes and felt it carefully, and said softly, "It smells like branding, mithril, chameleon and... gladiolus."
Catherine's pupils trembled violently.
Ji Chi glanced at her sideways, with a calm expression, as if he didn't care about the threat to the young master's life or death at all. He found a step by the fountain and sat down, quietly looking at the bright palace where singing and dancing were flourishing not far away.
