Sword Sorcery

Chapter 318 coma
"what?!"

Aaron let out a light snort, which immediately attracted An Geli's attention: "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing." Aaron shook his head, concealing his abnormality: "Let's continue walking."

At the same time, he glanced at the middle-aged fat man who was leading the way, and he seemed to be fine.

The two followed each other into the majestic hall.

The interior of the main hall is quite gorgeous, pillars engraved with reliefs one after another, and exquisite murals occupy the sight of the two, the most central place has a wide bed, surrounded by a large circle of white curtains .

"Sorry, half a month ago, His Majesty Derek fell into an inexplicable coma."

The middle-aged fat man explained to Aaron: "As the Minister of the Palace, I have been in charge of His Majesty Derek's diet and daily life. Fortunately, although His Majesty Derek has lost consciousness, he still maintains normal physiological functions."

"At least, he can eat liquid things and guarantee excretion, otherwise, you won't see His Majesty Derek anymore."

The minister of palace affairs touched the sweat on his forehead, and it was quite rude to talk to the guests about the emperor's eating and drinking.

Aaron nodded slightly, because with his keen sense of smell, he smelled the faint stench from the smell of spices. It seems that the emperor's daily life must be a little 'unspeakable'.

No matter how well the maids take care of it, it is impossible to prevent a 'vegetative' from having a stench, especially in the case of abnormal excretion.
So, Aaron asked without thinking: "How is the situation of the Vincent Empire in the last half month?"

The Minister of Palace Affairs heard what the other party meant, and quickly explained: "The Vincent Empire is still stable for the time being, and the current regime is in charge of the queen, but because His Majesty Derek has not woken up for a long time, several princes have already Got some ideas."

The overall strength of the Vincennes Empire is not as good as that of the Finnish Empire, because they haven't produced an official wizard for a long time. Not only do they face the lack of confidence in other countries, but they also lack official wizards to sit in charge, which is prone to civil strife.

It is for this reason that Andy asked Aaron to go to the Vincennes Empire instead of him. At least, he asked Aaron to spread the news of Andy's successful promotion to an official wizard to ensure the safety and stability of the Vincennes Empire.

"I understand."

Aaron took out Andy's "wizard token" and the long sword-shaped pendant representing himself from the storage bag, handed them over to the Minister of the Palace, and explained softly: "Andy has been promoted to an official wizard, he Like me, I have taken over the duties of the team leaders of other archipelagos and entrusted me to come to the Vincent Empire to inform you of the news."

Aaron's short sentence and the two wizard tokens immediately made the expression of the Minister of the Palace respectful, and he said gratefully: "It turns out that your Excellency is an official wizard. I was really rude just now."

The Minister of Palace Affairs knew the existence of the mystic, and his lofty status allowed him to distinguish the difference between a formal wizard and a wizard student, so his attitude towards Aaron became flattering: "Master Aaron, I didn't know you came to Wenzhou The Mori Empire, besides entrusting the token, do you have any other orders for us?"

Aaron nodded lightly and said, "Take me to see His Majesty Derek. As Andy's friend, you can't turn a blind eye to his father."

The Minister of Palace Affairs was overjoyed immediately, and led the two of them to the front of the bed. From a close distance, Aaron clearly saw the situation of Derek Vincent——

The other party was a handsome middle-aged man.

However, the half-month-long lethargy made him look haggard. He lay pale on the bed, and there was a faint stench from his body, which was enough to make sensitive people frown.

"It stinks!"

As a peak knight, An Geli immediately sensed the stench on the opponent's body, and could not help complaining: "It stinks like a stone in a latrine."

The Minister of Palace's face froze, but he didn't dare to say a word, because that delicate girl was obviously the concubine of the wizard, and he didn't dare to offend her at this juncture, otherwise, Derek would have to lie down again .

Aaron also knew of An Geli's 'venomous tongue', so he couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Lily, it might be even more 'stinky' next time, you should go to other places to rest first."

"Okay, then you should also pay attention, don't make yourself too stinky—"

"Otherwise, you don't want to sleep with me at night!"

An Geli winked at Aaron, and under the arrangement of the Minister of the Palace, followed a court lady to the next lounge, causing the Minister of the Palace to burst into shame.

"Ahem, ahem, I really made you laugh."

"No, no, I should be the one thanking Lord Aaron for his understanding."

The Minister of the Palace thanked him gratefully, and took the initiative to talk about Derek's situation: "Your Majesty fell into a coma half a month ago at night, and the maids didn't realize something was wrong until the next morning."

While the Chamberlain was speaking, Aaron scanned Derek's body with a chip—

Subject: Creed, strength: 5.4, agility: 5.1, constitution: 5.3, mental power: 1.9, strength stage: official knight
It seems that Derek is also an official knight while being an emperor. It is very strange that the chip did not scan any traces of witchcraft.

Originally, Aaron thought that Derek's situation had something to do with witchcraft—

"No, the two must be related!"

Aaron touched the position on his chest. The vertical pupil pattern became hotter after he entered the hall, which also made him secretly vigilant.

This was the real reason why Aaron deliberately pushed An Geli away. At least, he didn't intend to let An Geli face that kind of unknown risk.

"Do you have any clues about His Majesty Derek's coma?"

Aaron asked a question, but the Minister of the Palace shook his head: "No, by the time we found out what happened, His Majesty had passed out."

Aaron reached out and flipped through Derek's pajamas, and found that his whole body was pale white, and a rotten stench gradually came out as he flipped it over——

"It's really a stinky stone in a latrine."

Aaron sneered inwardly, and asked instead, "What was Derek doing before he fell asleep?"

The Minister of Palace Affairs recalled: "That night, His Majesty didn't let anyone go to bed, but he has the habit of reading before going to bed."

As he spoke, Aaron's attention shifted to the bedside, where there was a withered yellow book.

"Was that the last book he read?"

Aaron picked up the dry yellow book and asked the Minister of the Palace.

The Minister of Palace Affairs nodded and said: "Yes, we also read that book later, but we didn't find any problems."

Shah.

Aaron had already turned a page and found that it contained some normal plant information. Suddenly, Aaron frowned and said to the Minister of the Palace: "I need someone to test Derek for witchcraft. Get everyone out of here."

The Minister of Palace Affairs hesitated for a moment, but thinking of the other party's status as a wizard, he still agreed: "Okay, Lord Aaron, I will report to Queen Vicky about your situation first."

After finishing speaking, the Minister of Palace Affairs took away all the maids present, leaving Aaron alone in the bedroom.

boom.

The door was gently closed, and a gust of wind caressed the bed, blowing a little of Derek's clothes, revealing a piece of bloodless pale skin.

Leaving Derek on the bed alone, Aaron turned the withered yellow book to the first page, then, touching the hot vertical pupil pattern on his chest with his right hand, he whispered to himself——

"Half a month ago? Isn't it when the "low tide" happened? "

Aaron reached out and stroked the pages of the withered yellow book. It felt cold and delicate, like the skin of a dead person without warmth.

The next moment, Aaron cut his finger and dripped a wisp of blood on the paper——

Whoosh!

The paper page was like a greedy glutton, and immediately absorbed the strand of blood. At the same time, the color of the paper page began to turn yellow quickly, which made Aaron feel quite familiar
Like, where have I seen it before? !
