After this heavy punch, Hilbert folded his hands and tried not to grit his teeth, while his mother Mantha and old Collini were also attracted by him.
Qin Xiaoxia had a blank expression on her face, and Su Su couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark when she saw this scene.
"With such a weak constitution, it's a good thing that you attacked a Yin spirit monster the night before yesterday, otherwise even if you hit the wall, you would at least have broken your bones."
Although this would be a bit embarrassing under normal circumstances, Hilbert didn't care now. What he wanted to know most at the moment was about his father.
"Ma'am, can you tell me where my father was killed?"
Su Su looked at her tutor for his advice.
"Let's say it here. As close relatives, they have the right to know."
"Good mentor!"
With a wave of her hand, the crystal ball circled around Su Su and returned to the bag.
After considering her words, Sister Su spoke, but she did not directly tell the content of the divination. Instead, she asked a question.
"Teacher, is there a kind of monster that can poison a person's soul without the victim realizing it?"
"Poisoned?"
Qin Xiaoxia couldn't help but think about his method of quietly killing the remaining Soul-Eating Monster. It was a kind of latent magic, and only a low-intelligence and low-powered creature like the Soul-Eating Monster would fall into its trap. Anyone with a slightly stronger soul could sense the abnormality.
"It's very easy to make the body poison undetectable, but it's quite difficult to poison the soul, because the human soul is highly pure and any foreign matter will be easily rejected..."
He glanced at everyone who was looking at him, and finally met Hilbert's gaze.
"Not to mention that the man's last name is Chakus!"
"So, I think it's unlikely that it's pure soul poisoning..."
Su Su was also thinking hard and felt that something was wrong but couldn't figure it out, so she asked the instructor.
"But if we change our thinking, another way may not be impossible. For example, Red Banshee can easily achieve a similar effect!"
Sister Su's eyes lit up.
"That's right! The powerful sound illusion ability is indeed amazing. If it was someone like Sister Hong who was gifted with the Windsor Law, it would be even more terrifying. But Sister Hong couldn't do such a thing. Teacher, could it be a monster with similar abilities that did it?"
The sound became smaller and smaller as time went on. It was obvious that the girl found this monster very troublesome.
"Don't worry, even if it's true, it definitely won't be as powerful as your sister Hong. If it's really powerful, the old baron won't be able to make it home."
As if to verify something, Qin Xiaoxia looked at Su Su.
"Can you tell where the monster is now?"
Hilbert, Mansa and Corini also mentioned the witch who was looking at the beauty.
But the latter's expression looked somewhat ashamed.
"I, I can't predict it... The opponent's magic power should be very strong, I can't predict its information at all..."
"Is that so..."
Qin Xiaoxia sighed with emotion, as if he was not worried at all about not being able to foresee the dangerous monster.
"It's not that its magic power is very strong, nor is it that you are not strong enough. With your magic power, when it comes to divination, you are the best in the world!"
Because of this compliment, Miss Su's cheeks turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the ears of others, they also had a refreshed impression of the mysterious witch in front of them.
The term "world's number one" carries a lot of weight!
"No matter how powerful a monster is, even if you can't predict its location, if you have the material connection, at least you will have a sense of foreknowledge. At worst, you will be backfired by the collision of magic power in the air."
Su Su nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, it should be so according to common sense.
"There is only one possibility in the current situation. The monster may be dead, and it has completely disappeared!"
"What?" "Huh?"
Hilbert and Su Su raised their doubts one after another, the former greeted with a smile on his face while the latter showed realization after a moment.
"Yes, it's dead. The one who killed it was none other than your father, Chrisman Chakus, the former Baron Lionheart!"
His breathing was heavy and his chest hammer was dancing wildly. Hilbert's heart seemed to be hit by burning magma from the inside!
There is a strong emotion about to burst out.
"Did the monster discover Chrisman first? Maybe the Baron discovered the monster first... But it doesn't matter anymore. This battle has already ended..."
Qin Xiaoxia sighed softly, and the regret and helplessness contained in this sigh seemed to resonate spontaneously with the surrounding environment.
Boom!
Pictures after pictures vaguely emerged in the minds of Hilbert and even Mansa and Collini.
The stern old baron and the terrifying and evil figure in the darkness.
Perhaps it was an unexpected encounter, or perhaps it was a pursuit by one party. In short, an unknown and unimaginable battle unfolded in that dim moment.
Because he had used the "power of blood" once, Hilbert could imagine how thrilling the battle would be for his father who possessed even stronger power!
Where does it unfold, when does it begin, and when does it end?
Just as the mysterious man said, all this no longer matters.
The old baron dragged his tired body back to the Chakus family's estate and greeted his beloved wife calmly as usual.
He knew that he didn't have much time left. The monster's sound illusion ability was the most difficult to guard against. He had tried his best to return home as his soul was about to dissipate.
There was no separation of life and death as shown in movies and TV dramas, and no crying.
Perhaps, he just wanted to leave his wife with a normal back view, or perhaps he didn't want to feel his wife's sadness.
He went into the study alone, just as usual!
The three relatives, even Su Su, all have imaginations to varying degrees, and will beautify some scenes in their minds based on their emotions.
But the general "re-enactment" is almost the same.
“No… Ugh… Chrisman!!!”
Mantha covered her mouth and started crying. Although the British usually did not cry at funerals due to religion and customs, they were still sad. The tears that she had been trying to hide for days could no longer be suppressed.
Collini leaned against the door frame, his eyes were cloudy but he didn't cry. Instead, he tried his best to comfort Mantha.
Hilbert was both excited and somewhat relieved.
Maybe I can't avenge my father, but for that great man...
"Maybe this is fine!"
…
The art of language is not about saying everything that is true, but about giving the audience the facts they want. If these "facts" are reasonable, they can evoke a resonance of trust.
Chrisman Chakus is undoubtedly a good husband, a good father, and a good child in Collini's eyes.
Such a person, when learning that he may possess certain extraordinary powers for a while, will appear decadent in the hearts of his relatives because of being killed by monsters. Only when they die together and have a slight advantage will they be moved, especially because it contains a hint of romance at the end of life!
Of course, if it weren't for some suspicion, Qin Xiaoxia would have a better way.
Judging from the result of Su Su's divination just now and the so-called "injury" time judged subjectively, although there is a slight difference, it seems that it will not be too far from the time when Qin Xiaoxia found the secret location map.
Qin Xiaoxia now has a little doubt: what would happen if he found the parchment scroll instead of putting it aside first, but looked for its location immediately?
'Baron, Baron, at least you have left a deeper impression on your loved ones!'
As for the Baron's death, it was an act of force majeure, or perhaps it was really a coincidence of a heart attack!
However, seeing that Qin Xiaoxia did not make any other arrangements but let the matter end here, he felt a little uneasy.
