False prophecies kill people [Western Fantasy]

Chapter 19 "Becoming the Laughing Stock of Wizards

Xie Yi's "one stiff" was acted out, there is no doubt about it.

But he was indeed a little shocked, how did the protagonist know so quickly?

He remembered the priestess in white, and was at peace: the priest must have told Sexitus.

Although Sexitus, the "Holy Emperor", insisted on celibacy, there were many girls who admired him.

Sexitus himself is in good condition, and his status is also noble, so it is only natural that he attracts people to like him. Maybe the priestess is one of his admirers. The story in the manuscript has not been written in detail, and Xie Yi has no way of confirming it.

"Tell me, Your Excellency, I just want to know the content of that prophecy, and there is no loss for you, is there? As long as you kindly resolve my doubts, I will let go of my hand immediately. "

"I will apologize to you for my rudeness."

Believe you are a ghost.

Xie Yi kept silent.

Sexitus spoke softly, and his tone was good to discuss, but this was just a layer of paint to cover up his madness. Xie Yi had reason to believe that as long as the content of the prophecy did not threaten Sexitus, he would One step is definitely not "hands off".

Xie Yi's guess was not wrong.

Sexitus harbored deep malice towards the wizard, if it wasn't for the wizard's actions that made him suspicious, his dagger would definitely cut the wizard's wrist immediately.

As for why not the throat...

Wouldn't it be too violent to kill the wizard just like this?

He has rich experience in actual combat, and there are so many ways to make the wizard lose his ability to move in an instant, unable to use witchcraft, and let him be slaughtered.

But that unknown prophecy stopped him.

Apparently, the wizard has absolutely no affection for him, and it is definitely not out of kindness to come to rescue him when he is dying.

It must be because of that prophecy that he cannot die, otherwise it will have a great impact on the wizard.

And that effect is unfavorable.

So what about the other way around?

If the wizard died, or got injured, would it have the same effect on him?

Adverse effects, how adverse?Will it be life threatening?Or is it painless?

Sexitus could not be sure, so he restrained himself.

Xie Yi didn't answer him and kept silent.

This always proud wizard was obviously very angry. He couldn't bear to be hijacked by an ordinary person he always looked down on, so he turned a deaf ear to everything Sexitus said.

The cloud of witch power entrenched in his palm was about to move, if it wasn't for the sharp sword on his neck, I believe he would have pushed that cloud of witch power into the body of the person behind him who dared to offend him without hesitation.

Sexitus hugged Xie Yi from behind, the prince pressed his dagger against the wizard's neck, and the wizard pressed his magic power on the prince's lower abdomen, and the two were very close.

There is a gap between the two in stature, Sexitus is tall and handsome, and the wizard is a little thin. At first glance, people who don't know it may regard this threat as a hug between lovers—the wizard is almost like It was like leaning back in the arms of Sexitus.

Xie Yi was nervous, but he didn't notice this problem. He really wanted to knock down Sexitus directly, but unfortunately he didn't dare to compete with Sexitus for speed.

The two sides maintain such a weird balance.

After being silent for a while, Sexitus saw that the wizard had no intention of giving in. This was what he expected. He didn't think that a simple threat could make the proud wizard bow his head.

Contact with wizards can calm him down, he has a splitting headache, but wizards are dangerous people, and he must remain absolutely awake and sharp when confronting wizards.

It just so happens that this position can calm his headache, so that he doesn't have to expend energy to suppress the sharp pain in the cranial cavity.

After a while, he spoke first: "Since you don't want to say, please let me guess for myself, okay? If you can give me some hints during my guessing process, I would be most grateful."

Xie Yi ignored him.

"Let's go back to the beginning of the matter. Half a year ago, you, such a powerful wizard, came to the Kingdom of Daqi."

Sexitus smiled and analyzed slowly: "However, the Daqi Kingdom is a small and remote country, neither prosperous enough nor enough knowledge for wizards to pursue. I don't want to belittle myself, but this is the truth."

"But if that's the case, why would a wizard come here? The location is remote and the resources are scarce. The only advantage is to avoid the crowds. Maybe some weak wizards will come here to hide, but obviously, you are not."

"I learned from the priest that you are here for a prophecy."

When Sexitus said this, he pretended to apologize: "I didn't want to pry into your privacy, I found out by accident."

As for how "unintentional" that "unintentional" is, he didn't go into detail.

"Now we come to the prophecy, where you only have regular contact with the queen and me, so the person involved in the prophecy must be between me and the queen. The queen had to leave here for some reason a few days ago, and you didn't help her I stayed and didn't leave with her, but just let her go, so the person involved in the prophecy is not her, but me."

Sexitus continued, "I don't know the content of the prophecy, but what I can be sure of is that the prophecy must involve two people, one is you, and the other is me."

"Undoubtedly, the content of this prophecy must be very important to you, otherwise, as a powerful wizard, you would not be able to stay in my country for half a year. Then, let me recall your attitude towards me."

"Take me to test the medicine, obviously you hate me. But in the process, you have a little control, and I didn't lose my life, and it didn't cause damage to my body. You hate me, which means that the role I played in the prophecy made you Not satisfied, but you paid attention to not killing me, and even saved me twice."

Having said that, Sexitus' soft voice stopped abruptly.

It seems like a second, or maybe a century later, a gust of wind blows in from outside the door, and the burnt smell left by the flames is carried into the room with the wind.

At this moment, Sexitus' voice rang out together with the breath of the flames. It was faint, like a smoldering fire lurking under ashes, a danger with safety and confusion.

He whispered softly and asked word by word: "Why did you save me?"

His elbows wrapped around the wizard's shoulders, tightening even more now, and his warm breath brushed against the wizard's ears as he spoke.

"Why?" he asked again.

Xie Yi could clearly feel the tightening of Sexitus' sword on his neck, and the cold and sharp threat seemed to take his life away at any time.

"Tell me, huh?"

Sexitus' voice was deep and magnetic, gentle and slow, but the blade tightened more and more, almost pressing into Xie Yi's skin, and with a little more force, it could cut through that fragile barrier and let the red blood flow out.

Sexitus was threatening him, frightening him, threatening him.

Xie Yi knew Sexitus' purpose, but he was indeed a little scared.

What if Sexitus killed him regardless?

It's not impossible.

But Xie Yi also knew very well that the more Sexitus tried his best to intimidate him, the less likely he would kill him easily.

Despite facing a life-and-death crisis, Xie Yi remained calm.

He followed Sexitus' strength and took a step back. The distance between them was already small, but now it was almost none, and they were tightly stuck together.

It's a pity that it has nothing to do with the beauty, Xie Yi's purpose of retreating is to get his palm closer to Sexitus' abdomen, he pressed down hard, and also threatened to go back.

The abdominal muscles under the palm were tight and hard, like a wooden board or a smooth marble surface, only the warm touch showed that it was a body of flesh and blood.

... a little jealous.

Xie Yi threw away such boring thoughts and concentrated on thinking about the current situation.

The possibility of Sexitus killing him directly is less than one-tenth, because he doesn't know the content of the prophecy yet, and he is afraid, but after he knows it, it's another matter.

Xie Yi can choose to spend time with him like this, he has enough patience.

But Sexitus was not impatient either.

It is a very inefficient behavior for the two of them to spend like this.

Besides, Xie Yi was too lazy to argue with Sexitus.

Currently, Sexitus' attitude is very firm, he just wants to know what the prophecy is.

It is impossible for Xie Yi to take the initiative to tell him the content of the prophecy that he made up. One is that it violates the human design, and the other is that he is worried that such an outrageous prophecy will make Sexitus emotionally unstable.

When you are emotionally unstable, accidents are prone to happen.

But not saying a word is not enough, keeping silent is to start a tug-of-war with Sexitus by default.

The wizard's patience seemed to have been exhausted. Sexitus felt the muscles of the wizard in his arms gradually tense. The wizard's well-shaped lower lip was tightened, and a hint of impatience appeared in his eyebrows and eyes.

The wizard felt threatened, and he couldn't bear it any longer.

"You really want to know?"

The wizard sneered, and said slowly, "We are on each other's lifeblood, and I can't get away. Since you want to know, I'll tell you."

The wizard's voice was piercingly cold, but Sexitus smiled gently as if he didn't feel anything, and said softly, "Dear Your Excellency, I'm all ears."

His hand holding the dagger was extremely steady.

"The prophecy is very simple." The wizard said bluntly: "I see that you will become my apprentice in the future, and I will pass on all the knowledge I have to you, but you have violated my wishes and used the knowledge I taught you Dealing with me caused me a lot of losses and became the laughing stock of wizards."

When it came to the sentence "became the laughing stock of the wizards", the wizard gritted his teeth, the anger was as thick as smoke, almost materialized.

Sexitus listened quietly, without expressing his opinion.

After the wizard finished speaking, he smiled slowly.

fraud.

My dear wizard, the proud wizard, is lying to him.

This is by no means a true prophecy.

If this was true, the wizard could just kill him, why should he show mercy to him?

But one sentence of this false prophecy is true.

At least "becoming a laughing stock" is true.

But how could he, an ordinary person, make a powerful wizard the laughing stock of the wizards?

Sexitus didn't continue to ask, he accepted it as soon as it was good, and getting this news was already in line with his expectations, and if he continued, it was very likely that he would completely anger the wizard, and that would not be worth the loss.

The wizard hates him because he will make the other party a laughing stock, but the wizard can't kill him, obviously there is another mystery in it.

"You have got the answer you want." The wizard's voice was full of anger, "let go of your hand."

"of course."

Sexitus seemed to have been tricked, he didn't have any doubts about the wizard's answer, he let go, and the dagger slid down Xie Yi's front and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

This is silent provocation.

At the same time, the arms that restrained his shoulders and neck were loosened, Sexitus took a few steps back, and gracefully saluted the angry wizard: "I'm very sorry, please forgive my offense."

In the past, the method used by wizards to torture him was basically to test medicine, which was an indirect behavior.

Let him see if the wizard can directly harm him instead of killing him.

In contrast to him, the witch power in the wizard's palm hadn't faded away, they were flickering, bursting into a brighter light for a while, and dimming for a while.

Sexitus watched the wizard with interest, and at the same time, he was ready to dodge.

Obviously, the wizard was very angry. His cheeks and ears were red, and his fingers curled up a few times unconsciously. This was a sign of being about to get angry.

The wizard didn't wear a mask, so all the changes in his expression were seen by Sexitus.

The wizard is very beautiful, and it is quite pleasing to the eye when he is angry. He has beautiful red lips, fair and pink cheeks, and black hair hanging by his ears. The color contrast makes him even more stunning.

Finally, the wizard forcibly suppressed his anger, the witch power in his palm disappeared, and he did not take revenge on Sexitus.

But the wizard didn't want to stay here for even a second, so he picked up the mask and put it on his face, covering that beautiful face, turned around, suppressed his anger and left.
