I really just want to be a big lord

Chapter 44 The "Accident" of the Year

Of course, Keos didn't know about whether artistic creation should be sacrificed to the soul, but he had to say that after this trip to Sardinburg, he returned to Beishan Manor and saw the paintings painted by the original owner, and he was different again. a feeling of.

His previous impression of the original owner was that he was lustful first—Salveira said that he designed the sheer tulle jumpsuit!Definitely an LSP!No need to wash!

Then there is mania, tyranny, autism, and even a bit of self-destructive tendencies.

After all, those paintings are basically full of similar negative emotions.

But now, he actually somewhat understood why the original owner had these emotions.

After Keos returned to Beishan Manor, he did not immediately go to the warehouse to meet Guan Yaoxing. Instead, he first went to the studio and then to the study to find Pete and ask about the cause of his sister Lena Li's death.

As soon as Luna was mentioned, Pete couldn't restrain the grief on his face. He sighed and said, "Oh, Joseph, it's all Joseph's fault, but Joseph is also a poor person. Of course, Miss Luna is even more pitiful..."

According to Pete, when Kaios and his sister were riding a pony in the manor, a tall steed with monster blood suddenly went berserk and rushed towards Kaios and Lenna.

At that time, there were guards guarding them, and there should be nothing wrong with them. Let alone a horse with the blood of a monster, it is a real monster. In the manor, facing the prepared guards, it is difficult to hurt the two. little Master.

But what I didn't expect was that Joseph, a young spiritual man who had just been promoted from a light guard to a full-armored guard, was so nervous that he actually shot out a strong wave of spiritual energy, and he didn't control the direction well.

Therefore, within the damage range of the spiritual energy wave, little Lunna was decapitated directly.

After this incident, Joseph was directly devoured by the furious old baron with a soul contract, his whole body exploded, and he died in pain.

Even Caios was angered and locked in the room for several months.

It was also after that that Kaios, who had already used the "secret method" to take good care of his body, began to become weak and sick again.

This matter is a taboo topic for both the old baron and Caios, and it is a painful memory that they want to forget desperately.

"Where was Benan's chief guard at that time?" Keos asked, according to the time, his first secret technique "teacher" Filo had died because of "spiritual vein disintegration", and Benan had just become his second The secret method "teacher".

"Benin?" Pete was startled, and recalled: "Benin's chief guard was also at the manor at the time, oh, if I remember correctly, the first to arrive at the scene was the chief guard of Benin..."

Suddenly mentioned Benin at this time?Pete's left eyelid twitched uncontrollably. Reminiscent of what the master said to him when Benin returned to the manor earlier, he felt that the master may have discovered some terrible secrets when he came back from Sardinburg this time. .

"Did Joseph admit that he did it?" Keos asked.

"This... there should be, but when the master... the old baron arrived, he only asked a few questions, and killed Joseph. When the old servant arrived there, he was already dead..." Pete said.

Keos nodded and did not continue this topic, but ordered: "You arrange it, I am going to inspect all the territories, farms and factories, including the development camp in the northern boundary, and try to arrange it within a month."

Pete was startled, and instinctively wanted to dissuade him, but when he opened his mouth, it changed into: "Yes, master."

During this period of time, he has gradually gotten used to Kaios' style, knowing that since he explained it in such a specific way, he has already made a decision, and he only needs to be responsible for how to implement it well.

Thinking of the difficulties and dangers he might face, Pete became a little excited for a while.

After Pete left, Kaios looked at a painting he moved from the studio with a gloomy expression.

This is the "red painting" drawn with blood. Through the contents of the original owner's half-graffiti and half-diary notebook in the basement of Sardinburg, Kaios knew that this painting was made with the original owner's own blood. When the painting is finally completed, it is the moment when he makes the most radical decision.

In the original owner's notebook, there is a completely different description of Lenna Lee's death from Pete's.

He has tremendous remorse and self-blame for his sister's death, because according to his records, Lenna died by his sword.

The original owner did not record the specific details and what happened at that time, but combined with Pete’s account of another version of the incident and the analysis of other information, Keos deduced:

When the original owner was taking his younger sister to ride a pony, a magic pony rushed towards him in surprise. Because he had practiced the "secret method" for several years, he was actually a spiritual practitioner with decent strength, so he directly drew his sword and killed the horse without any hesitation. Thinking that he underestimated his spiritual energy wave and killed his sister by mistake.

Even at that time, the weapon in his hand may have been powerfully enchanted, and the bonus of the protection array may have been used.

As for Joseph, he must be the scapegoat.

And there is a high probability that after Benan arrived, he made the first arrangement to help him remove the pot and force or lure Joseph to take over.

Does the old baron, the original owner's father, know?

Keos tends to know that he knows this, which can be seen from the fact that the old baron’s diary did not mention the original owner in a single word during the period after his daughter’s death—although every time it was mentioned before, it was not good or bad. , but it will be mentioned anyway.

Bearing such a huge self-blame towards his sister, it would be logical and natural for Benan to lure him into the trap of practicing undead spells by summoning Luna's dead soul.

However, after experiencing the abnormal "spirit rushing to the brain" madness of Kares and Chu He, and Dr. Grossman's speculation about the "spiritual curse", it was hard for Kais not to doubt that the strange magic horse back then Is the crazy incident really an "accident"?
Since the other party can make a spiritual practitioner go crazy, it seems that it is not very difficult to make a half-breed magic horse that is not even a monster go crazy?

Keos even speculated that the sword and the aura wave created by the original owner were the result of careful arrangements and designs. The purpose of everything was to let him kill his sister with his own hands!

Judging from all the signs that have been discovered so far, Kaios feels that his speculation is very likely.

But the original owner is also a ruthless person.

In the process of cultivation, in addition to physical weakness, there was also a mental shock, which made him irritable, restless and even a little crazy and violent.

But because of this, the original owner did something crazier than Benin and the others imagined—he directly nourished his sister's undead with his own flesh and blood, and in order for his sister to truly connect with the material world through those flesh and blood, he And stripped a part of my soul out!

He wants his sister to "return to life", and also wants to cultivate a "Undead Emperor". He wants to turn himself into a lich!
In the half-scribbled notebook, the original owner firmly believed that once he succeeded, let alone Benin who wanted to coerce him, even the Holy You Palace would be ignored.

Keos didn't know why he was so confident, he could only attribute it to the double sacrifice of his soul and body, he had been paranoid to the point of madness after being backlashed by his magically modified undead spell.

However, it was precisely because of his crazy attempt that Keos vaguely grasped the operation mode of the soul and related spells in this world.

Especially the soul subordination contract.

……

Kaios stayed in the study until late at night before getting up to go to the warehouse.

Guan Yaoxing still looks like sitting cross-legged in the cage, but her complexion looks a little worse than before he went to Sardinburg. It seems that she can't really live forever without eating or drinking.

"Vera, go and pour half a glass of milk." Keos ordered.

"Yes." Salveira didn't need to pour it herself, she went to the door to give an order, and soon a guard was ready and trotted over to deliver it, and then she took it from the door and brought it over.

After delivering the milk, Salveira subconsciously prepared to walk out of the warehouse and guard the door.

But Kaios called her back: "Vera, you can just stay inside."

Salveira was startled for a moment, answered "Yes", and stood inside the warehouse door.

Although she pursed her lips tightly, she couldn't hide the smile and complacency in the corners of her eyes.
