In other words, the Matriarch of the Night Healers in the darkness was very likely a root-level existence like Big Brother Titan.
However, Ryan wasn't surprised.
Because the leader of such a huge organization as the Night Healers couldn't possibly be an ordinary being.
Ryan immediately put his hand on his chest and bowed his head to salute, saying,
"Apprentice Night Healer, Good Doctor and Peace Messenger, pays respects to the Matriarch."
"..."
"..."
The two guards standing on both sides of the gate all looked at him with strange eyes.
Because it was the first time they had heard such a ridiculous name...
Didn't he feel embarrassed when introducing himself?
In the depths of the hall.
A grand female voice rang out.
"Raven has mentioned you to me. What surprises me is that you could pass the assessment so quickly and also got White Night's recommendation."
"But I trust White Night's judgment, so I also believe that you will surely become a qualified Night Healer."
Ryan lowered his head and said seriously, "Thank you for your appreciation, Matriarch!"
At this time, it was necessary to follow the rules. After all, the other party wasn't a little girl, but a being who might be at the same level as Big Brother Titan.
He had to be cautious in both words and deeds and must not offend her.
This was the way to survive in the Dark World.
The grand female voice said, "I need to conduct an inspection on you. Relax, and it will be over soon."
"Yes, Matriarch!"
Ryan nodded.
Then he reached out and took off his outer coat.
But just when he was about to continue taking off more clothes.
"What are you taking off your clothes for?" The grand female voice from the depths rang out.
Ryan looked up, holding his clothes, and said, "Isn't it a physical examination? When I examine others, I always ask them to take off their clothes."
"..."
"..."
There was a brief and extremely strange silence.
The corners of the mouths of the two guards at the door twitched crazily, and they felt so embarrassed that their toes went numb.
After a long silence.
"No need!"
The female voice from the depths obviously raised its volume by more than one decibel.
Ryan nodded, put on his coat, and stood there like an innocent young man.
In the next moment.
A ray of light shooting from the darkness enveloped Ryan's whole body.
Ryan immediately felt warm all over his body, as if a delicate little girl's hand was giving him a full-body massage. It was numb, soft, and very comfortable.
Ryan showed a satisfied look.
It felt like his soul was about to be purified.
[Ding! You are being illuminated by the Holy Light, and your body is being spied on.]
[Ding! Your vitality has been restored to 100%.]
[Ding! Your fatigue has been recovered.]
While being illuminated, some soft tentacles grew out of his body unconsciously, floating like seaweed.
Obviously, the inspection by that being had activated some abilities inherent in his body.
And then, in the next moment.
When the light swept across his forehead, an ancient cross-shaped rune slowly emerged on his forehead.
The moment that rune was seen, the gaze in the dark depths became astonished.
"The mental contract of the Titan clan?! How is this possible?!"
Yes!
Definitely!
That was the contract rune used by the young men and women of the Titan clan to establish a relationship with each other!
But how could this human have the contract of the Titan clan on him?!
What a joke!
Because with this contract rune, it meant that this guy was engaged.
A human less than two meters tall was engaged to a Titan girl hundreds of meters tall?!
[Ding!???'s shock level towards you + 10]
[Ding!???'s shock level towards you + 10]
And then, in the next moment, the grand female voice rang out again.
Only this time, the voice was obviously full of hesitation.
"Where did the mark of the Titan clan on your head come from?!"
Ryan was stunned and quickly came back to his senses from the warm light.
"Mark?"
He subconsciously took out a mirror and looked at his forehead.
Then he immediately remembered the ceremony that he was forced by Aunt Witch God to participate in with Soso, which was almost like being abducted halfway.
Ryan took a sharp breath and said somewhat awkwardly,
"How should I put it... There was an aunt... She insisted that I marry her daughter. It was hard for me to refuse, and I'm also good friends with her daughter, so I agreed first... I'll explain the situation to her when she grows up..."
[Ding!???'s shock level towards you + 10]
[Ding!???'s shock level towards you + 10]
"You, a human?" The voice was hesitant.
Ryan nodded with wide eyes.
"And a Titan?" The voice was astonished.
Ryan didn't know how to reply in astonishment.
"Engaged?!" The voice gradually felt that it was getting more and more absurd.
Ryan stared and corrected, "No, it's a young Titan female. Her name is Soso. Although we're engaged, it will definitely be cancelled in the future."
[Ding!???'s shock level towards you + 20]
"You're not only driving a big truck, but you're also driving a (bleep) truck?!" The grand female voice was obviously shocked by him.
Ryan: "..."
Ryan wiped the sweat on his head vigorously.
He always felt that this Matriarch didn't seem to be the kind of being who could listen to others' explanations, and she seemed to know a lot. However, judging from her voice, she didn't seem to be the type that was difficult to get along with.
"No..." Ryan explained dejectedly, "Really not. I was really forced. I don't have any such intentions..."
The gaze in the darkness became even more hesitant.
"The Titan clan has been completely wiped out. Now there are only three Titans left in the Dark World. Don't tell me that the one engaged to you is the daughter of those two guys!"
Ryan was stunned and stared, saying, "Well... If you mean the Headhunter family, then it should be them..."
[Ding!???'s shock level towards you + 10]
[Ding!???'s shock level towards you + 10]
"She's only five years old!" The voice was obviously shocked.
Ryan covered his forehead and said, "Three thousand and five years old..."
"What's your relationship with the Witch God?!" The voice was hesitant.
Ryan wiped the sweat and said, "She's sort of an aunt... We just know each other..."
"What's your relationship with the God of War?" The voice became a bit aggressive.
He remembered that Big Brother was indeed the God of War of the Titan clan when he was alive.
Ryan coughed and said, "He's my sworn elder brother..."
Buzz—
The whole hall was silent.
The two guards at the door were so shocked that they couldn't say a word.
"..."
After a long silence.
The female voice in the darkness rang out hesitantly.
"He became your elder brother? His wife is your aunt? And his daughter is your fiancée?!"
Ryan said in a shocked way, "Although the relationship might seem a bit messy, generally speaking, that's about it."
They knew each other!
The Matriarch of the Night Healers definitely knew Soso's family!
Then was he considered half an acquaintance and a relative?
"How dare you fool me?!" The voice in the darkness suddenly became cold.
Ryan also immediately felt that the warm light enveloping him suddenly became bone-chilling cold.
And prompts quickly rang in his ears.
[Ding! Crisis level reaches 50%!]
[Ding! Crisis level reaches 80%!]
[Ding! Warning! Warning! Crisis level 96%!]
Seeing that the murderous intent and coldness were getting stronger and stronger, Ryan immediately raised his head, stared seriously, and explained,
"No! Absolutely not! If you don't believe me, I still have the contact information of Big Brother's family. You can go to The Vision with me to confirm at any time!"
"If I tell a single lie, may I be struck by lightning!"
But obviously, the effect wasn't very good.
The cold gaze was still getting colder rapidly.
Ryan gritted his teeth.
At this time, he couldn't care so much anymore!
In an instant.
He took out half of a huge broken tooth from the system space, held it in his arms with difficulty, and gritted his teeth, saying,
"If you don't believe what I said, then you should believe this, right?! This is half of my fiancée's, no, Soso's broken baby tooth! Do you think an ordinary person could have such a private thing?"
"..."
There was a brief silence.
Ryan could clearly feel that the gaze fell on the half of the tooth in his arms.
The root-level aura emanating from it was very obvious.
If she really knew Soso's family, it was impossible for her not to sense the aura on it.
The surroundings fell into silence.
Ryan also felt that the temperature of the light shining on him didn't continue to drop.
Ryan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He raised his head and asked cautiously, "May I ask who you are, Matriarch?"
After a long time.
The grand and indifferent female voice rang out in the hall.
"I'm the first love of her father."
Ryan: "!!!"
