Twenty Sided Dice

Chapter 142: Sea of ​​Fate Thirteen

readx(); "The divine power of the Lord of Dawn revealed the truth. Although this woman named Janet did not impose a curse, it was indeed related to the prince's ills." Bishop Reverend Cooper's tone was calm, but his voice was clearly audible in the hall . The holy emblem on his chest exudes a soft light, and everyone watching this light can't help but be convinced. "And according to God's guidance, this woman seems to be a demon, but is actually a devil. I suggest that the punishment of fire and silver juice is to purify the evil as soon as possible."

Janet raised her head sharply, her heart filled with fear and hatred. Fear comes from the punishment of fire and silver juice. Whether it is tied to the stake and swallowed by the fire, or poured on the head with melted silver, it is the most cruel punishment. And the source of all these judgments is based on several magical effects. Ken is not a fact, it is all speculation and slander, so Janet is full of hatred. She wanted to yell and curse, but she knew it was useless except to make her suffer more. Under the heavy watch of the Dawn Knight, she has no ability to escape at all, and the death penalty seems inevitable. She thought of Siegel, then, hiding the curse in her heart, pleaded.

"I'm not a devil, and I've never hurt a prince. If you sentence me to death for being a demonborn, I'll admit it, because I won't be the first nor the last to be caught by blood. Sinner. I just want one thing, please let me jump off the cliff, right where Siegel disappeared. You can tie my hands and feet so that I can't speak or move, and use all means to make sure I can't break free. I just want to be close to Siegel, he's the only one who is really good to me."

Reverend Cooper frowned. The lie-detection spell didn't respond, indicating that what Janet said was the truth. What is the reason for this, is there another hidden secret? Although he was suspicious, he did not speak.

"But you made him fall off a cliff." Sir Bill stepped forward and reprimanded her. "I've heard this from many people, but I've never been able to find you to verify it. Can you speak now?"

"Yes, that was my fault," Janet replied, crying.

Sir Bill nodded and turned to Prince Aaron. Then he said: "His Royal Highness, Baron Siegel is your royal knight and has been fighting for you faithfully. This Demonborn is related to the disappearance of Baron Siegel, as Siegel's former knight mentor. I hope Janet can be detained temporarily in order to get more information on the situation on the battlefield at that time." He also said to Dawn Pastor Cooper: "If the temple wants to, you can send people to guard the prisoners."

"It's a pity they can't do that," Evan said suddenly, then lowered his voice and said in the prince's ear. But the keen Earl Todd and Reverend Cooper could still hear. He said: "The paladins and priests of the Temple of Dawn can only defend members of the royal family, and cannot participate in political affairs other than that. Your Highness. This is our royal business, and many knights and knights will serve you."

Pastor Cooper hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, we are only assisting in the search for evil devils, and have no intention of intervening in political affairs. Please understand."

"I understand." Aaron nodded to him, and then said: "I have always been grateful for the assistance of the Temple of Dawn, and this is how it is. Keep her in custody, Earl Todd, you will arrange for someone to take care of her. If Sir Bill, if Go ask her whatever you want. Poor Siegel."

"His Royal Highness, please let me cast a spell. To block the devil's mana, so that she does not violently hurt people." Pastor Cooper bowed, and then began to cast the spell. Janet only felt that the world was spinning, and the surrounding people became blurred light and shadow, but the twisted and funny faces were clearly visible. Under the effect of the spell, she gradually lost control of her body, just like the last time she fell into a coma, the faces she had changed in the past kept appearing.

The onlookers were just like watching the fun, they just thought it was very magical, but Earl Todd was startled by a face. in the blink of an eye. He found a familiar face, which he had seen when His Royal Highness visited Master Lier before leaving the Old World. He thought that this person was the maid of the Master of Prophecy and did not pay much attention to it, but obviously Master Lier would not have a maid of demon descent. So what's behind Janet having this face? He decided to find out.

After the spell was cast, a pair of white-gold handcuffs restrained Janet's hands, and also suppressed all her innate abilities. Prince Aaron waved and let the poor kitten down, and then said to Pastor Cooper.

"Contact the Mages Association of Waterdeep City and ask them to open the teleportation array." His tone was unquestionable: "I have been in this cold and cold place enough. Now that the devil has been captured. I believe my body can already withstand the bumps of travel. already."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness. I'll do it right away."

The cell in Castle Black was facing west, so Janet could see the last rays of the sunset disappear. The sausages, bread and water placed next to her remained the same as when they were brought in, but they had long since become icy cold. She looked at the darkness gradually coming up outside, but she didn't believe that this would be her end.

The metal shackles on her hands were unusually cold, but they didn't look strong. She could try to unlock them if she had the tools to unlock them. But the knights standing guard outside the door are not easy to pass, no matter how they change their appearance, they can't help but attack. If he can break through this line of defense, with disguise and disguise, it is not too difficult to leave the Black Blood Castle. But how to find Siegel at that time, and how to explain to him after finding him?

Do you confess to him that you are a spy?

That's what it takes to lose professionalism, Janet told herself. Although the cell is cold, it is much better than the trial hall, at least one can be alone. But this extravagant hope was soon broken, the iron door opened, and Earl Todd walked in.

Looking at the prisoner with his back turned to him, the Count said straight to the point: "Janet, you have a choice now. Tell me what you did in the capital of the stars, and I can intercede for you."

"Can you let me go?" Janet didn't look back. In order to steal information, she knew very well the temperament and character of the important officials of the kingdom. Earl Todd is an opinionated old man, and no one but the royal family can make him change. But Janet still wanted to try, keeping a glimmer of hope of meeting Siegel.

"I can't let you go. But I can imprison you forever." The Count said, "I can promise you a looser cell, as long as you tell the truth."

"It's okay, my lord," Janet replied, "I tell the truth and no one wants to listen, otherwise I wouldn't be here. Maybe I'll make you think I have some little secrets that will keep me alive. longer."

The earl frowned and said sharply, "Don't think about blackmailing the royal family. It takes a day to build the stake and collect silver coins. You only have so much time to think about it. I advise you to change your mind!"

After speaking, he turned to leave.

After the cell door was closed, Janet was able to be alone again in peace. 'Where is Siegel? Is he okay? ' Janet just had to think about these things to pass the time.

The cell door opened again as the moon climbed into the sky, this time to Sir Bill. He came in with an oil lamp. Seeing the frozen food on the table, he let out a long sigh. "Go get some hot food, I'm going to be here for a while."

He sent the guards away from the door, put down the oil lamp, and said to Janet, holding the long sword in his hand, "You didn't assassinate His Royal Highness. Did you?"

Janet smiled, she just said, "Sir, what you think is more powerful than what I say, isn't it?"

Sir nodded and said, "I don't know you, but I know Siegel. He looks silly, but he can tell the difference between a good guy and a bad guy. Even if you've been a villain before, you'll always be around Siegel. Give up your evil deeds, or that kid won't spare you and will drive you away long ago."

"I think you're right." Janet nodded. The topic also piqued her interest.

"I can't let you go, please understand that." Sir Bill continued: "This is my duty, and I can't disobey. Lord Earl is already preparing the stake, and the priest of the Temple of Dawn is also helping. They Will not do wasted effort, so your end will be very tragic. I said at the trial to get information from you, on the one hand, to avoid that terrible way, maybe in a more neat and less painful way, but now It looks like that effort has failed. The other aspect is that there are indeed questions for you, but it's not about the battlefield."

Jazz paused. Then asked, "Have you and Siegel ever slept, is it possible that you are pregnant with his child?"

Janet smiled, he knew what Sir Bill meant. If she had Siegel's flesh in her belly, the ser would have fought desperately to keep the child anyway. After Siegel disappeared. She had seen sadness in Jazz's eyes, it was a real wound from the heart, like a parent who lost his child, the pain was irreplaceable. She believed that as long as she nodded and admitted, she might have a turnaround. But Janet, who was accustomed to lying and disguising, shook her head and told the truth: "No. I don't have his children."

"Have you figured it out?" Bill asked.

"I don't want to lie to you," Janet said. "Just for Siegel."

Sir sighed again, then said to Janet, "Son, don't wait to be burned, it's too painful and cruel. If you nod, I'll cut off your head here, neatly."

"No, I don't want that." Janet looked out the window and couldn't see anything but moonlight and starlight, but she seemed to be able to see a lot. With tears in her eyes, she turned to Sir Bill and said, "I'm sure Siegel will show up again and save me from leaving. I'll wait."

"If that's the case..." Sir Bill retracted his unsheathed sword, and said, "Siegal won't save you even if he shows up, and Priest Dawn won't let him do that~www.readwn.com~I Trust him, there will be a way." Janet laughed and wept.

Sir Bill knew that this was actually the girl's last psychological support, so he didn't persuade him any more. Before leaving the cell, he lowered his voice and said, "Tell the Count the story, the longer the better. Don't forget to eat."

Then he slapped Janet in the face, knocked her to the ground, turned around cursingly, and strode away.

Janet sat up, ate the food, and got ready for bed. She had been alone before, but now she knew that Sir Bill would help her secretly, at least so that the Earl would not lose his patience, and only then would she have a chance to tell stories to delay time. Don't talk about making up stories, what if there is an expectation to meet Siegel, that is, to tell it all about it? She sat quietly on the cell bed, choreographing the details of the story in her mind over and over again.

But in the middle of the night, the prison door was opened again. It was Evan who came in this time, with a ridiculous black hood and a thick cotton coat in his hand. The two guards outside were knocked unconscious by him and fell to the ground.

"Stretch out your hand, and I'll cut off the shackles for you." Evan said: "Siegel likes you, so you can run away." (To be continued.)
