Chapter 475 The Truth About Father’s Death
Everyone was very happy to learn that the "ugly guy" was Hector's father's squire knight.
Finally we recognized each other!
Hector had a lot of things he wanted to ask Ailin, but since they were on the street, it was not convenient to say them.
"Uncle Ailin, can you come back to the hotel with me? I want to ask you something." He asked after helping Ailin up.
"Okay." Ailin nodded in agreement.
If he had not met Master Hector, he would have spent his whole life in Birita Town keeping the secret.
Now that I have met Master Hector, it is time to settle the past grudges.
He picked up the blue cloth that fell on the ground, carefully wrapped the golden sword in his hand, tied it up and put it on his back.
Shu Li came before the Elf King and gave him a thumbs up, his bright eyes full of admiration.
As expected of the Elf King, he possesses superb swordsmanship and completed the task with ease.
The Elf King smiled and returned the sword of Bersugar to him.
Shu Li took the magic sword and casually stuffed it into his storage ring. He turned to his friends and said, "It's done. Let's go back to the hotel!"
"Wait—" Amanda pointed at the eleven "dumplings" tied up with green vines, "What should we do with them?"
Shu Li snapped his fingers, and the green vines that bound the eight thugs disappeared instantly.
The thugs were suddenly freed, looking confused.
The female orc, dwarf and swordsman who were still tied up were furious and struggled violently, cursing vicious words.
Shu Li was annoyed by their noise, so he waved his hand and sealed their mouths with green leaves.
"The green vine will automatically disappear in half an hour. You'd better behave yourself and stop thinking about revenge. Otherwise—I don't mind sending you to hell right now."
A brilliant smile graced the young man's pretty face, yet he emanated a terrifying aura far exceeding that of a Mage Saint.
The female orcs, dwarves, and swordsmen were horrified, their limbs were stiff, and they had difficulty breathing. They were like fish on a chopping board, full of despair.
The young magician in front of me, who looks no more than twenty years old, is actually a magic saint!
No, he's even scarier than a Dharma Saint! Could he be a Dharma God?
They couldn't help but think of the recent rumors about the tenth level of the Snow Mountain Maze.
I originally wanted to use the power of the team to cause trouble for them, but now I don’t have any evil thoughts at all.
Seeing that they were quiet, Shu Li reached out and pulled off the storage bag hanging around the female orc's waist, easily took out a large bag of gold coins, weighed it, and threw it to the owner who was standing at the door of the tavern, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"then."
The tavern owner subconsciously hugged the big money bag, but his arms sank and he almost lost his grip.
Wow, this big bag contains two thousand gold coins.
"This is compensation." Shu Li asked, "Is it enough?"
The tavern owner smiled broadly. "Enough, enough!"
As the female orc looked on in anger, Shu Li returned the storage bag to her and said with a smile, "You are the perpetrator and bear the primary responsibility. Of course, you must compensate for the tavern's losses!"
The one who teases first is the meanest. Who made the female orc speak ill of you and then come knocking on your door?
Shu Li's hands itched as he glanced at the furry leopard ears hidden in the female orc's hair, pulling them, causing the other party to glare at him angrily.
After the matter came to an end, Shu Li waved his hand and took his friends back to the hotel.
After asking for leave from the tavern owner, Ailin straightened his back and followed Hector's footsteps.
After they walked away, the residents of the town gathered around the three "zongzi" at the door, pointing and talking.
Some brave children imitated Shu Li's actions and pulled the female orc's leopard ears.
"Wow, so soft! So furry! Just as nice to touch as my cat's ears!"
"Really? Let me touch it too."
"Oh, don't push, don't push, come one by one."
"Haha, it's really soft!"
"Why does she have leopard ears?"
"Because she's a half-orc!"
"Just ears and no tail?"
"She must have hidden her tail. Let's look for it—"
"Stop it! Mom said you can't molest girls!"
"Then let's just touch the ears!"
More and more children squatted in front of the female orc and touched her furry leopard ears. The female orc was so angry that her face turned red and her eyes rolled back. She wished she could tear these ignorant townspeople into pieces.
The dwarf and the swordsman looked at the female orc with sympathy.
The children's parents noticed the female orc's fierce eyes and feared revenge, so they hurriedly picked up their children and went home.
After a while, the pub was deserted.
The boss received the compensation, called his thugs, and closed the door of the tavern in front of the three adventurers.
The dwarf wanted to curse loudly, but his mouth was sealed with a strange green leaf, so he could not speak.
Back at the hotel, everyone came to the courtyard where Shu Li lived. As soon as they sat down, Hector couldn't wait to ask: "Uncle Ailin, tell me, who killed my father!"
As a party involved, Ailin must know the murderer who killed his father.
Ailin sat on the single sofa, looking around the layout of the living room, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
Twenty-seven years have passed, and returning to this hotel again feels like a lifetime ago.
After a while, he looked at the young man who looked like his master and said hoarsely, "The murderer is Colin Hunter of the Demon Hunter Group, and the accomplice is the Apocalypse Star Adventure Team he led."
Upon hearing this answer, everyone else was stunned.
Hector clenched his fists and asked coldly, "Then what role does my second uncle...Maisero play in this?"
He has always regarded his second uncle who misappropriated his father's inheritance as a murderer. This time he came to the Valley of the Wind specifically to find evidence and expose the true face of his second uncle.
However, his father's squire knight told him that the murderer was someone else.
This answer was hard for him to accept.
Hector took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and waited for Ailin's answer.
"Bang!"
Ailin pounded the armrest of the chair hard, his muscles tensed, his disfigured face twisted with anger, becoming even uglier, and deep hatred bursting from his deep blue eyes.
"He is the employer! The mastermind behind the murder!" he growled hoarsely.
There were several gasps in the living room.
Hector was stunned for a long time. He exhaled the foul air in his chest and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Ailin, please tell me everything you know!"
His guess was correct, his second uncle, Maisero, was indeed the culprit.
Ailin wiped his face and said hoarsely, "Everything starts from when the master met the lady..."
"My mother?" Hector looked surprised.
"Yes." Ailin nodded. "Your second uncle, Maserato, was also a suitor of your ladyship..."
The beginning of the story is very cliché. The young Olaman takes his two younger brothers, Maisero and Kadimer, on an adventure to the Warcraft Forest, where they meet the magician Meadow who is being hunted by Warcraft.
The three brothers, along with six squire knights, bravely killed the monster and rescued the young and beautiful female magician.
Afterwards, they traveled together.
Olaman and Meadow hit it off at first sight and fell in love during their adventure.
Afterwards, Olaman took Meadow back to the Pros Empire and held a grand wedding despite his family's opposition.
After marriage, the couple loved each other and had a harmonious relationship. The next year, they gave birth to a son, Hector.
Because Hector had a pair of silver-gray eyes unique to the Snowwo family, the voices against his parents gradually decreased, and when Olaman was named earl by the king, no one said anything anymore.
However, accidents happen, and Meadow died during an adventure.
The younger generation of the Snowvo family would go out for training every once in a while. Olaman and Meadow were both magicians, and in order to improve their strength, they often traveled together.
However, when Hector was ten years old, an accident happened when they went on an adventure to the Wobba Canyon. Meadow was hit on the head by the collapsed ore and died.
Olaman was grief-stricken. If Hector had not been young, he would have died with his wife long ago.
After burying his wife, he was silent for a while, then he picked himself up and decided to raise his son well according to his wife's last wishes.
Twenty-seven years ago, Olaman decided to go to the Valley of the Wind for training, and his younger brother Maiser insisted on following him.
Olaman didn't think much about it and happily took his brother to the Valley of the Wind.
Unexpectedly, he died in the Valley of Wind.
Having said this, Ailin paused, met Hector's confused eyes, and said mockingly: "The master regards Myserlo as his brother, but Myserlo regards the master as an enemy!"
"Why?" Hector blurted out.
Why did Myselo hate his father?
"Because he loves your mother!" Ailin gritted his teeth. "He thinks the master killed the lady and should go to hell with her!"
The others were surprised when they heard this.
Shu Li opened her mouth slightly.
Is the truth really so bloody?
Hector's face flushed, his breathing became heavy, and he was furious. "He's making excuses for his ambition!"
After his father died, all the inheritance was divided among the family members. My second uncle, Maisero, took the largest share and became the new heir to the family.
He said he loved his mother, but it was obvious that he was deliberately insulting the deceased in order to wash away his own crimes!
Ailin said expressionlessly, "This was the answer Myserlo gave when my master questioned him before he died."
Whether he was lying or not is unknown.
Ailin simply told the young master what he had seen and heard.
Unable to express his love for many years, Maisero could only watch his brother marry the girl he loved and have children. As a result, his brother failed to protect the girl, causing her to die.
After Meadow's death, Myselo firmly believed that his brother Olaman was the real murderer of her, and began to implement a plan to murder his brother.
Before his death, Olaman learned that his own brother had hired someone to kill him. He asked him why, and Myselo told the truth with a crazy look on his face.
The Valley of the Wind was the burial place he chose for Olaman.
As for the Apocalypse Star Adventure Team, they were murderers hired by him.
Maisero had long known that Apocalypse Star belonged to the Demon Hunter Group. They agreed to meet in the town of Birita, with Apocalypse Star deliberately picking fights and creating conflicts between the two sides in order to dispel his own suspicion.
The subsequent developments were similar to what the hotel owner said.
They competed in drinking in the tavern, felt a sense of mutual admiration, called each other brothers, and naturally became friends.
Once entering the Valley of the Wind, Olaman had no chance to resist.
During the adventure, Olaman noticed something strange and discovered Myserlo's conspiracy, but he had no time to react and was ambushed by Colin Hunter.
As Olaman's squire knights, Ailin and Ani tried their best to protect their master. However, they were outnumbered and Ani died on the spot. Ailin was luckier and was swept away by a sudden hurricane and escaped.
As for the two knights following Maserati, they were completely kept in the dark and only learned of their master's conspiracy after the incident.
They were silenced.
"...I was the only one who survived." Ailin covered his eyes and choked with sobs. "The hurricane carried me into the center of the Valley of the Wind. They thought I was dead and gave up chasing me. I struggled for over a month in the center. Fortunately, a mercenary group passed by and saved my life."
After waking up in the small town clinic, he found himself disfigured, his voice broken, seriously injured, heavily in debt, and his heart lost, full of despair about the future.
