Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 161 Past rights and wrongs·The beginning of the escape and the truth of the past ()

"Rigel, what are you doing-"

Sensing the approach of the magic gem, Jocelyn was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to dodge out of the attack range.

However, the young man who suddenly launched the attack did not respond immediately. Instead, he pulled out a scroll from his large cloak and spread it out flatly. He quickly imitated the magic circle pattern on the scroll and drew a magic circle on the land in front of him.

"I'm asking you something, answer me quickly!"

Qiaoceline asked without hesitation. The movement of her hand was one step ahead of her thinking, and she took the lead in filling in the magic elements. She released a [water bomb] magic towards the young man in front who was concentrating on drawing the pattern of the magic circle.

Rigel made a move. After struggling for a few seconds, he still did not look directly at his friend across from him. While resisting the approaching [water bomb], he shouted apologetically: "Sorry, Jocelyn, I don't have it now." Time will answer you, if I don’t hurry up, according to plan they will come here soon to seal you.”

Plan, seal?
  Keenly capturing the important information contained in the other party's words, Qiaoceline frowned uncontrollably, but she did not feel any malice from it, but she still had the patience to remove the attack magic in her hand again.

"Thank you."

Rigel simply thanked him, and then continued to draw the pattern of the magic circle in the scroll without stopping for a moment.

boom--

As he smoothly finished the last stroke of his painting, the dim magic circle in the place instantly bloomed with a dazzling blue light.

Under the light, Rigel didn't care about alleviating the huge drain on him from just describing the magic circle. He grabbed the girl beside him by the wrist and quickly led the dazed girl to the old house behind the new house. Then he followed The memory in his mind found something that contained a mechanism, and he filled it with magical elements without hesitation, opening a mysterious secret passage hidden in this abandoned old house.

"This is…?"

Qiaocelin stared blankly at the dark corridor ahead of her who didn't know where it would lead, and for a moment she didn't know what to think.

From the bottom of her heart, she undoubtedly hopes that even if one day something happens to her Lifford family, she can be her father's last resort. But what happened again and again today revealed to her the difference between reality and ideals without exception.

Maybe, I really am not that important in his heart...?
  As a result, Qiaoceline, whose expression was a little resolute, could not help but feel discouraged, so that the foot that she had just stepped out towards the corridor showed obvious hesitation, and she was still unable to put it down.

"Let's go. Once you leave here, you will understand everything."

Realizing that his partner had become hesitant again, Rigel couldn't help but let out a long sigh, said these words repressedly, and then pushed the girl in front of him directly into the corridor.

"Why, why do you want to help me? I don't think the help I provided you before will make you give up your future to help me."

The moment the entrance to the corridor was completely closed, Qiaocelin, who had taken down a magic lamp from the walls on both sides and successfully lit it, immediately slowed down and asked the young man standing next to her who seemed to be suppressing something.

"Because I can't agree with their decision."

Rigel fell into silence for a while and found that he really couldn't avoid this topic, so he had to answer vaguely selectively.

"What decision? The decision to seal me and..." Qiaoceline stopped talking for a while, and finally gritted her teeth and continued, "And the decision to cleanse the entire Liford family?"

Rigel remained silent with evasive eyes, and finally nodded slightly at the girl's serious insistence.

"Then why did they seal me? What did the other members of the Lifford family do wrong?"

Seeing that her partner was beginning to relax her bottom line, Qiaocelin seemed to have grasped an important straw. Without waiting for the other party to answer the call, she asked first.

"Sorry, I can't reveal everything to you until I find the legacy."

Rigel continues to stick to his bottom line conscientiously. “Then when can we find the legacy?”

Qiaoceline asked subconsciously.

"If the pursuers above haven't found this place yet, you can find the answer after about three forks."

Rigel then behaved concisely, controlled the expression on his face, and nodded lightly.

"it is good."

Qiaocelin nodded with satisfaction, then ignored the noise caused by trotting in the secret passage and quickly searched for possible forks in the road.

……

"arrive."

After walking in twists and turns for a while, Rigel finally stopped shaking his head in response, pointed to the mark left on the wall, and motioned for the girl behind him to come forward.

"Shall I open it?"

Jocelyn blurted out in uncontrollable surprise.

"Yes, as long as you open this, you can find items that are enough to answer most of your problems."

After saying that, Rigel looked around the surroundings cautiously, and after confirming that the two of them were not being followed, he nodded gently again.

"it is good."

So, Qiaoceline quickly handed the magic lamp in her hand to her friend, then came to the magic circle on the wall, stood on tiptoes, injected magic power, filled the magic circle, and activated the magic circle.

boom--

As the magic elements at her hand were excluded, the magic circle on the wall was successfully activated, revealing a narrow space only the size of a pair of hands, and a black wooden box with their family crest engraved on it in the center of the narrow space...

"This is?"

Qiaoceline was stunned again, hesitated for a moment, and finally carefully stood on tiptoes to remove the box placed in the hidden space.

"Open it."

Behind him, Rigel also noticed the ordinary box hidden behind the mechanism, but he did not go up to check it out. Instead, he just handed over a magic lamp and stepped away some distance.

"Thank you."

Capturing the details of the other party taking the initiative to retreat a distance, Qiaocelin couldn't help but thank her from the bottom of her heart, and then opened the box in her hand with the help of the magic lamp handed by her partner.

However, when she tried to open the box directly with great expectations, the box in her hand seemed to have been stuffed with many heavy things. No matter how hard she tried to force it open, the lid of the box was not shaken at all.

Is there a special barrier set up?
  Qiaoceline secretly speculated, and at the same time began to search along every place in the box where the magic circle was likely to be hidden. Finally, she finally found the hidden magic circle on the family crest that was easily overlooked, and successfully dispelled it. The magic restriction attached to the surface of the entire box took out several square pieces of paper and a dark, exquisite and compact pistol...
