When he came out of the dungeon, Lance saw a burst of smoke coming from the distance. He looked at Spark and asked: "What's going on?"
"It seems..." Spark's flames in his body hit the sky and they turned into an eye in the air. He returned and said: "Reporting to the Third Prince, it seems to be the Imperial Guard."
Before Lance could continue to ask, a dozen knights riding terrors had already arrived at the gate of the dungeon. The leader, a goat-like guy over three meters tall, knelt down on one knee and said, "His Highness , the Lord want to see you."
"Okay." What is supposed to come will always come. His uncouth second brother already knew that he learnt magic, why didn't the dad know about it?
Lance jumped on the Behemoth and said to the leader: "Lead the way."
The Behemoth moved its legs, with Lance sitting on top of him, holding JiangCheng in his hand and heading towards the palace. Soon they arrived at their destination, the Corsas Palace.
He was scolded on this place a few hours ago, but now he was recalled because of him knowing magic. This demon race is realistic enough.
"Wait outside." Lance ordered JiangCheng and walked in himself.
It was still a familiar scene: the Cruel Lord Ratahn was sitting on his throne. This time his eldest brother and second brother were sitting below.
Though he had not taken two steps, Lance couldn't help but cursed the designer of this palace in his heart. When he entered the main entrance, he wanted to quickly walk to his father and salute, but this palace was built according to the size of the demons. Besides, in this place, Lance couldn't run but only walk... his legs were short!
He was now feeling like a celebrity on the red carpet who was not invited, for fear that someone would talk about him. Fortunately, everyone seems to have gotten used to it. Lance walked to the steps of the throne and bowed: "Father, are you looking for me?"
"Yeah." Ratahn said calmly: "There was a aura of magic coming from your living area just now. Subaru said it was you who used the summoning magic?"
Haha, Lance was laughing in his heart. Is his second brother naive or stupid? He actually took the initiative to tell their father about something that would obviously enhance his status.
He was not pretentious and replied: "Yes, father! That is my summoning magic."
"What did you summon?"
"A high-level undead." Lance raised his head: "Do you need me to call him over?"
"No need." Ratahn waved his hand: "The one outside the hall, right?"
Lance quickly took the opportunity to flatter him: "My father knows everything!" He learned this skill from the villains in TV series.
Sure enough, although Ratahn's face was expressionless when he heard this, his beard still trembled and even the call changed: "Lance, when did you learn magic?"
"I don't know." Lance pretended to be stupid: "It's just... I can do it after my head clears up."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the eldest brother Vitez suddenly said: "Lance...why don't I see any shadow of elements on you? Can you summon another one to have a look?"
The cold sweat on Lance's face fell instantly. Summon another what! I don't have any summoning.
"What's wrong?" Ratahn saw Lance's embarrassment: " Is there something wrong."
It's indeed something wrong! The game is anti-addiction.
"Well..." Lance rolled his eyes and thought about it. I'm worried about finding a reason.
"Father, this summoning magic was suddenly acquired after I woke up." Lance raised his head: "But when I summoned the undead outside, that familiar feeling disappeared again. In fact. This is why I stopped you from sacrificing those humans."
The Lance who wanted to protect these humans before was just motivated by an impulse in his mind. Now what Lance has to do is to make this motive reasonable.
Vitez touched his sharp corners: "So, this is why you went to the dungeon just now?"
"Yes." Lance said, "I felt that there was magic energy in my body throbbing after I came back from the front line.So when I found my magic stopped responding after summoning an undead creature, I think of those humans. "
"Isn't this nonsense?" Subaru was holding a stick in his mouth: "If I am affected by a forbidden curse, magic energy will throb in my body too."
"Subaru!" Ratahn's eyes widened: "Spit the stick out of your mouth before you speak!"
Subaru swallowed the stick-like toothpick directly. Lance's eyebrows jumped when he heard this. The demons... really have no taboos!
Ratahn looked at Lance: "Keep speaking."
"I..." Lance was interrupted by Subaru so that he almost forgot his words: "I remembered that there was a magician among these human captives, so I went to find her to ask about magic."
"What are you talking about?" Subaru was stunned after hearing this and then burst into laughter: "You actually! You actually went to a human to ask about magic!! Hahahaha, Lance, are you crazy! What can they tell you?"
Ratahn also looked unkind: "As a prince, are you going to find a group of prisoners as mentors?"
Lance raised his head and looked at him in a neither humble nor condescending manner: "Father, I always thought that my existence was to test the possibility of magic. The combination of you and my mother..."
"Shut up!" Before he finished speaking, Ratahn slapped the throne and a whirlwind blew Lance away, making him hit the ground hard. Vitez and Subaru also lowered their heads at this moment.
Even though every demon would mock Lance's bloodline, no one dared to mention it in front of Ratahn, including the second brother who has always been domineering!
Ratahn's reputation as the Cruel Demon Lord isn't from nothing. Those who questioned him and kept mentioning Lance's life experience have long been torn to pieces by him. This thing is like his reverse scale!
As for the reason...even if he had reached this point, Lance's memory did not give him any help. All he knew was that his memory contained no information about his mother!
Lance endured the pain all over his body, gritted his teeth and said, "Father, your son is going to be an adult soon. The previous war made me understand my own weaknesses. I have been listening to the criticisms too much on my growth path! So... I don't want to give up magic!" He climbed up and insisted: "I wish you can support me!"
Vitez's face changed slightly and he shouted in a low voice: "Lance, what are you talking about! Why don't you admit your mistake quickly!"
Lance said nothing.
On the throne, Ratahn stood up slowly and looked at Lance with an unhappy expression: "Have you decided?"
"Yes, Father!" Lance knew there was something important going on.
"Okay, those humans are yours." Ratahn turned and left the throne. He only left one sentence: "The demons never raise waste. Don't let me down in ten days! Otherwise, you know the result!"
Ten days, this was another keyword. Lance remembered that it should be Autumn Hunting.
Ratahn left and Subaru over there stood up. He glanced at Lance with disdain: "My brother, enjoy the free days you have now. But don't think that you can win Nini's heart even if you have learned magic!"
Lance: "????" Who the hell wants to win the heart of that beetle? Second brother, if you want it, hurry up and come on! I thank you very much!
However, Subaru had already walked away. Vertz stepped forward to help Lance and asked with concern: "Lance, are you okay?"
Lance grinned in pain and raised his head, "Don't worry, big brother. It's just a fall and I can still bear it."
In the entire City, it seems that his eldest brother was the only one who is truly kind to him, so Lance was also kind to him.
"You!" Vitez lectured: "Why don't you mention your mother! Don't you forget father will get angry if anyone mentions her? Fortunately, he is merciful this time, otherwise you would have to lie down in the palace for a month!"
"Okay, okay." Lance agreed quickly: "Brother, you are right. Oops..." Lance cried out in pain.
Vitez became anxious all of a sudden: "What's wrong!"
Lance touched his neck and grinned: "I keep looking up at you and... twist my neck."
Vitez: "..."
