She Chooses To Destroy the World

Chapter 86: Special potion.

“Really?” Alice was taken aback. “I saw his hair and guessed that he might have something to do with the royal family… But… is he really the king’s uncle?”

“My uncle.” The archmage gave a positive answer, “Although not many people know about this from the east or the west, but the necromancers must know about it.”

“He doesn’t seem to be that old anymore.” Alice commented, “I think he is about the same age as His Majesty the King.”

“I don’t remember exactly how old he is, he is probably a dozen years older than the king.” Archmage Talus said, “but Necromancers are like wizards, they have their own special beauty. It can make him appear younger than his actual age. There are secret investigation records related to him in our mage tower. I have read it when I just became the tower owner… The investigation records in the mage tower show that he and the kingdom The current high priest in China is likely to be twins.”

This is another staggering news. The high priest is so famous that even people like Alice who have no idea about the political structure of the royal capital have heard of him. Everyone in the country knows that he is the tutor of His Majesty the King and has a pivotal position in the court. Earlier, the king chose to let Alice bring letters to the archmage instead of sending his cronies. Isn’t it just to avoid being discovered by the high priest that he wants to contact the mage in the east?

This thing is so weird that Alice can’t help but keep asking questions:

“Why did the twin brothers of the high priest come to the east? They also became the leader of the necromancer? Shouldn’t they all believe in the **** of light?”

“The situation on the royal family’s side cannot be fully grasped by the Alliance of Wizards in the east.” Archmage Talus told her, “After all, there is still a border between us, and many things cannot be conveyed so clearly, but we are Fula. Mage Mel Tower has been collecting information and recording files for many years. Many of the contents that have been erased in the west are still recorded on our side. All in all, according to our records, the original royal family announced that, the queen They gave birth to a pair of twins. But twenty years later, they suddenly decided to erase the record of this person completely. They claimed that one of the twins had died in childhood, and all the activities he had attended were attributed to them. The name of his twin brother. Later, he has been downplaying his existence, so many people now think that the current king has never had such an uncle. This happened very early, and even the king himself may not be very clear about it. ”

“So… Damian lost in the political struggle?”

The archmage shook his head:

“Not necessarily. Damian and the current high priest are not the eldest sons. Under the premise that their elder brothers are in a solid position, it would have been impossible for them to be kings, let alone defeat. The information in our hands There is no detailed record of his departure from the royal family. But there is a little guesswork.

“Although he and the high priest are twin brothers, there is still a difference in the time of birth. Damian is the youngest son, and his succession ranks later. After the two became adults together, the high priest entered the temple first. In this case, if Damian also chooses to enter the temple, he may only be the shadow of his brother. If he chooses not to enter the temple, but works **** the side of the knight, he may be jealous by the crown prince. For these reasons The reason was that he simply left the royal family. As for how he became a necromancer… then no one knew.

“If the royal family members become necromancers and become known to the world, it will obviously damage the image of the royal family, so they erased the records about him… But this kind of thing can only deceive ordinary people, our mage The tower has very detailed files on this.”

On the way back, they have been discussing Damian. Out of some subtle and special understanding, neither of them mentioned Alice’s mother again. The father and daughter who had just met were not close enough to discuss sensitive topics. At this time, talking about the gossip of the Necromancer leader would make the atmosphere a little more relaxed.

The carriage returned to the mage tower, and they returned to the office of the arch mage through the hidden door in the tower.

“Tonight has happened too much, are you tired?” Archmage Talus asked Alice, “We can come back to explore your mother’s memory tomorrow.”

“If everything is ready soon, I would rather start now.” Alice replied to him, “If I go back now, I will not sleep.”

After listening to her, Archmage Talus thought for a minute.

“Okay.” He finally replied, “The potions needed for the ritual have been prepared. Although a magic circle needs to be drawn, it probably won’t take much time.”

After he said this, he opened the cabinet in the corner of the office and took out two bottles from it.

The first bottle was filled with white sand. The Archmage Tales opened the bottle and carefully used the white sand to draw a magic circle on the floor. The sand in the bottle didn’t seem to be a lot, but the archmage used it to draw the entire circle. When the drawing was over, it glowed slightly.

He made Alice stand in the center of the circle:

“This magic circle can form a barrier between you and your mother’s memory, preventing her memory from invading your mind and causing confusion with your own memory.”

Alice looked down at the center of the circle where only one person could stand:

“how about you?”

“I don’t need this kind of magic circle.” The archmage said, “This is my own memory.”

As he said, he pulled out a few hairs from his head and opened another bottle at the same time:

“Here is the potion needed to search for memory. I have made it since the last time we talked. It is now when the potion works best.”

The liquid in the medicine bottle was dark purple and looked scary. He put his hair into the medicine bottle, and the potion was bubbling and the color turned into a transparent pale golden. Alice paid special attention to it, and the hair inside had disappeared in the potion.

The archmage handed the medicine bottle to Alice and motioned to her to add her mother’s hair. Alice added a few of her mother’s hair according to the amount the archmage had just given, and there was still a handful of hair left in her hand.

“This kind of spell doesn’t use much hair.” The archmage said, “I can find a pendant to help you put it on.”

He said this, then moved, turned to the desk and flipped for a while, took out a necklace from the drawer and handed it to Alice. When Alice reached out to pick it up, the Archmage Tales suddenly noticed the covenant ring in her hand.

“Who forced you to make an agreement?” He frowned. “It’s hard for me to remove this kind of thing safely.”

“It’s a long story.” Alice looked at the pendant intently, and replied casually, “I used it for something that I needed… It’s not really a hindrance, I almost forgot that I was still wearing it.”

The archmage gave her a small box on the necklace. One side of the box was embedded with red enchanted gems, and the other side was transparent, which seemed to fit a small image. Alice put her mother’s hair in, closed the lid, and looked up at the archmage:

“All right.”

The archmage sighed and said nothing. At this time, Alice’s mother’s hair had completely dissolved into the potion, and the potion was ready.

The archmage took out two cups and poured the potions into them separately.

“Have you considered,” Alice asked, “if you are not my father, what will happen?”

“If I have never met your mother or shared memories with her, then nothing will happen.” Archmage Talus said calmly, “If that’s the case, you might just watch To a short completely blank scene, or some fragments of memory that can’t be pieced together… In short, even if that kind of problem occurs, don’t worry, just wait quietly until the medicine disappears. But I don’t think it will appear. That kind of situation.”

“So you are pretty sure that I am your daughter.” Alice said, “Why are you so sure? Since you have all forgotten.”

“I just know.” The voice of the Archmage Tales was very soft. “The magician is always more sensitive than others. When I first meet you, I have that kind of feeling. It’s just…I am not I dare to admit it.”

He handed Alice a cup:

“Drink it.”

Alice looked down at the potion, the color of the potion was indescribable, making her look embarrassed:

“Is this something to drink? It just dissolved my hair. It really won’t burn my stomach through?”

The Arch Mage looked at her helplessly:

“Since the day I started making potions, no one has ever raised this question to me, even my original mentor, who is still famous throughout the mage tower for his poisonous tongue.”

‘sorry.”

“Oh, forget it.”

The archmage took the cup and drank it. Alice watched him vigilantly for a few seconds, and saw that he didn’t react in any particular way, so she drank her half glass of liquid.

The smell of this thing was not as bad as Alice had imagined. A lot of air was dissolved in it, which gave her a special feeling of bubbles in her mouth. Although it was not common, it was not unpleasant. The liquid itself even has a fragrant smell, with a bit of sweetness and sourness. Alice felt that she seemed to have tasted this taste somewhere before.

It’s like…cider?

The taste very similar to cider evokes a little memory of Alice, who had drunk this wine somewhere in the south when she was a mercenary. But soon, her own memories were overwhelmed by other memories that swept through, and Alice found out that she was no longer in the Frammel Mage Tower at this time, but had gone to another place.

She seems to have returned to the winter nineteen years ago.
