Chapter 30030: Curse

Rosie frowned.

These black spots were all over Count Fernandi's chest, the largest of which was no bigger than a fingernail, while the smaller ones were as small as sesame seeds.

Ordinary people might think that they are just ordinary age spots, but as a wizard apprentice, Luo Xi clearly felt the elemental reaction from them.

'What's going on? How can a mortal have such an elemental reaction?'

'Could it be that he was contaminated with something unclean?'

Luo Xi did not conduct further inspection immediately. Anything related to the extraordinary world cannot be treated carelessly.

He turned to Carol and asked, "How did the Earl do this?"

Carol explained: "We don't really know. Half a year ago, my father's health started to deteriorate after he came back from hunting in the Misty Forest. We thought it was just a minor cold, but no one expected..."

After listening to Carol's description, the doubt in Luo Xi's eyes did not diminish at all.

The Misty Forest is the intersection between the wizarding world and the human world. It is indeed possible to encounter wizards, but no wizard would curse a mortal for no reason.

Yes, Luo Xi initially judged that Count Fernandi's condition should be due to a curse. This is a spell subject under black magic, a mixture of knowledge of spirit, destiny, and blood direction. It is very difficult to defeat the enemy in the void and is the favorite method of black wizards.

Although the curse is difficult to deal with, it is also very troublesome to cast. It requires a lot of materials and prerequisites such as the hair and blood of the person being cursed. It cannot be done on a spur of the moment.

Therefore, this curse definitely was not contracted accidentally in the Misty Forest, but was definitely targeted at Count Fernandi.

"Another internal fight among the nobles?"

In a sense, the human world is far more complicated than the wizarding world. Intrigue and deception are commonplace, especially among the aristocratic class.

But this is not important to Luo Xi. His task is just to complete the task and repay the favor.

Carol asked, "Any questions, Mr. Wizard?"

Luo Xi explained: "Your father was not infected with an ordinary disease, but a curse, which is the cause of his downfall."

Carol's face changed: "What!"

The expressions of the servants in the room all changed.

"Curse? The master is cursed!"

“No way!”

"The wizard said it himself, so it can't be wrong. Who on earth is this despicable villain?"

Carol frowned and suddenly said to Knight Lowa beside him, "Knight Lowa, could you please take everyone in the room down and temporarily detain them in the dungeon? Put them in the next room first and don't allow anyone to come in or out."

Several servants looked at each other, and Knight Lowa also frowned: "Isn't this a bit bad?"

Those who can take care of the Earl in this room are all carefully selected. They were the Earl's most trusted people in the past, and many of them even have blood ties with the family.

Carol said, "I will bear all the blame for my father's awakening."

After a pause, he turned his head and bowed to the servants: "I'm sorry, but this is an extraordinary period, please understand."

Everyone nodded, said nothing more, and followed Knight Lowa out.

Luo Xi raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but take a closer look at the young noble. Although he was young, he was quite decisive in doing things.

After sending the others away, Carol looked around, then asked Luo Xi vigilantly: "Sir Wizard, may I know the source of this curse?"

Luo Xi said: "Let me deal with it first."

Carol nodded and said, "Thank you, Master Wizard. My Fernandi family will remember this favor."

Luo Xi nodded casually, not taking it too seriously. There were very few intersections between wizards and mortals, and even nobles seldom interacted with each other. After this time, there might not be a chance to meet again in the future.

Then, he began to work on the curse in front of him.

In fact, this was already beyond Luo Xi's mission. After all, the mission he had received in advance was only to treat the plague, not the curse. What he should do now was to report to the castle and ask the castle to send an apprentice of at least a senior level to deal with it.

However, the current condition of the humans was very bad, and they might not be able to hold on until that time. In order not to affect his mission, Luo Xi decided to try it himself first.

He is quite confident in his own strength and knowledge reserves.

“Take precautions first.”

Recalling the standard procedures in the book, Luo Xi took out a pair of leather gloves and a bird-beak mask from the space ring. These were special witchcraft tools, specially used for conducting some polluting experiments.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

There are many substances in the wizarding world that are highly polluted and radioactive, and even wizards cannot easily be contaminated by them.

Just as he was about to put on his magic tools, a commotion came from the corridor outside the door.

"Where's Carol? Where is Carol? Tell him to come see me!"

"What? I can't go in? Get out of here!"

Then a young man in his twenties was seen coming to the door of the room with several soldiers, ignoring the guards' obstruction.

"Master, Master Joseph."

Carol waved to the guards and said, "I understand. You can go down first."

Then, he frowned and looked at the man in front of him, frowning and asked: "Joseph, what are you doing here?"

Joseph Fernandi was the fourth son of Count Fernandi. His mother was originally the wife of one of Count Fernandi's enemies. The Count was attracted by her beauty. After defeating his opponent, he also needed a marriage to stabilize the situation, so he married her.

Although the countess died of illness shortly after giving birth to Joseph, her son Joseph was born into a legitimate aristocratic family, so his status was higher than that of Carol, the "illegitimate son".

Hearing Carol speaking to him in an almost interrogative tone, Joseph immediately felt unhappy and said coldly, "You have no manners at all. You call him by his first name. Is this the etiquette you should have towards your brother?"

Carol looked embarrassed, but soon recovered and smiled, saying, "I'm sorry, it's my fault, Fourth Brother. What's the matter with you coming here so suddenly?"

Joseph snorted and then asked, "I heard that you went to find a wizard to cure your father's illness. Is that true?"

Carol nodded, then pointed to Luo Xi next to him and said, "This is the wizard."

Joseph glanced at Luo Xi, turned around and said impatiently: "Okay, I won't waste my words with you. I don't care what you did before, but you must stop now, immediately, get these liars as far away from me as possible!"

"You've come to Blackstone Castle to cheat and deceive people. You're so brave! You must be tired of living!"
