Things about the female knight in black stockings

Karen made a sound that fit her current body, and then opened her eyes drowsily.

"Are you awake?"

Lika's attitude was quite mild, even with a hint of joking:

"Your skills are good...your magic is very successful. You are now a beautiful girl."

These words made Karen, who had just woken up, turn pale instantly. Looking at her white and delicate hands, her eyes were full of despair that she could not accept the reality:

"How could this happen...it shouldn't be like this...it shouldn't be."

"What? Are you not satisfied with your current body?"

Lika raised her eyebrows:

"You made this body yourself using forbidden alchemy, right? Or do you regret it?"

"No! Things are not what you think! You don't understand anything!"

Karen seemed to have gone crazy out of despair, and had no consciousness of being interrogated at all. She glared at Valencia with her beautiful eyes:

"Especially you, a self-righteous impulsive idiot! You ruined two and a half years of my hard work! You even killed my original body! You murderer!"

"No, no, no...I didn't kill your original body~~"

Valencia was not afraid at all, and she just smiled when facing those fierce beautiful eyes:

"Doctor Karen died heroically in the battle with the cultists. What does it have to do with me? The college will hold a funeral for him in a few days... If you want, maybe you can attend too?"

"Varied……"

Karen was speechless for a few seconds, and then became even more furious:

"You idiots just 'sacrificed' me like this? I'm not dead yet!"

"The only one who survived was you, the innocent girl who was kidnapped by the cultists, not Dr. Karen."

Valencia continued to joke:

"So I advise you to answer sister Lika's questions obediently...if you still want to live freely with your new identity."

"...Do I still have a chance to live freely?"

Karen was stunned for a moment:

"I have used forbidden spells and participated in illegal transactions. Shouldn't I be tied to the stake and burned to death by you?"

"It depends on your motives and whether you cooperate."

Lika stopped Valencia who wanted to continue teasing, with a serious and solemn expression:

"So tell us carefully... If you don't want to become a beautiful girl, why do you want to get involved in these forbidden spells? Where did you get this forbidden knowledge?

What will happen to you in the future depends entirely on your next answer...so you'd better calm down and think clearly before speaking. "

Chapter 104: No one is dead, how can they be resurrected?

"I……"

Karen fell into a brief silence.

She thought she was dead before, so she acted crazy... She was about to die, why couldn't she just curse a few words?

But now that she heard that she had a chance to live, or even regain her freedom, Karen quickly adjusted her mentality.

Although this attempt failed, there is still hope as long as people are still alive.

Karen doesn’t want to give up:

"Where do I start?"

"Let's start with how you came into contact with necromancy and alchemy."

Rika said while looking down at the information on the table:

"Your personal resume has never mentioned that you are also a necromancer... Your magic power is definitely not something that can be cultivated in just two and a half years."

"I have indeed learned necromancy and alchemy from a long time ago."

Karen nodded, her voice already very calm:

"But even now, I don't consider myself a necromancer... I am a doctor, and necromancy is just a means to assist me in my medical practice."

"Oh?"

Lika raised her eyebrows curiously, but did not interrupt and motioned for Karen to continue.

"...This classmate has experienced it personally."

Karen suppressed her resentment and pointed at Valencia as calmly as possible:

"Although the divine arts of the Church of the Sun are miraculous, and the top divine spells can even bring human flesh and bones to life, there are also many wonderful things in nature, including many special injuries, curses, toxins, etc. that cannot be cured by low-level divine spells. Or to eliminate it, targeted drugs and methods must be used.

This is the main direction of my medical research. Undead magic can help me better understand the human body, and alchemy can help me become familiar with various medicinal materials... They are just means to assist me in practicing medicine. "

"Well, this is consistent with your personal fulfillment."

Lika nodded while looking through the information:

"According to the information provided by the Zhan Zhan College, you were once an outstanding military doctor. You even followed the vanguard team to explore the wilderness many times and made many contributions...

Normally, you can continue to accumulate merit in the military and get promoted until you become a noble... Why did you suddenly retire and return to the Zhan Zhan Academy to become a school doctor? "

"...Because I was married by then."

There was a blush on Karen's face, and her eyes were full of happiness:

"Compared to performing meritorious service on the battlefield, I want to spend more time with her... Anyway, the income from the school doctor's job is enough for us to live without worries. It doesn't matter whether we are a noble or not."

"Are you giving up your career for your wife... It seems that you are a sentimental person."

Lika sighed, she already understood Karen's true purpose of violating the taboo:

"So you don't want to become a beautiful girl yourself, but you want to resurrect your wife?"

"……Yes."

Karen's voice suddenly became painful, with a hint of resentment towards the church:

"I have been studying medicine since I was a child, and I have saved countless people from death... I never expected that I would not be able to save my beloved wife.

That day was obviously like any other day...but I got the bad news after I got home from get off work...she was involved in a tragic accident and passed away.

I can't accept the reality at all...I even fantasized many times that you were wrong...she is actually not completely dead, and she can still wake up as long as she is rescued immediately...just like many people I have treated.

I didn’t expect that you wouldn’t even let me see her body, even if her matter involved church secrets... Even though I knelt at the door of the church for two days and one night in the rain to beg you.

After that, I was depressed for almost half a year before I found hope in life again... I thought of a forbidden spell in necromancy. "

"So you approached the underground gangs in the royal capital to anonymously purchase prohibited materials, and secretly studied undead magic in order to resurrect your wife?"

Rika sighed:

"This is really... Hey, I can't even remember how many times I have dealt with this kind of thing... breaking a taboo in order to resurrect an important person.

Don't you know that the success rate of this forbidden technique is very low?It may even bring unpredictable dangers to you and those around you. "

"Of course I know...but it is possible to succeed with a low success rate, right?"

Karen smiled sadly and said:

"I can't live without her anyway. The worst case scenario is that we die together?

As for the possibility of implicating other people... I also considered it, so I built the laboratory in a nearby cemetery where no one lives...

Forget it, it's useless to talk about it now... Since this is not the first time for you, Lord Paladin, to deal with something like me, then what is the usual outcome for people like me? "

"As long as you have not harmed innocent people during the research process, the undead magic power in your body will usually be purified and you will be allowed to practice for a period of time according to the standards of the priest."

Lika thought for a while:

"But now I am more concerned about the thing you mentioned before... You said that your wife's death involved church secrets, and you were not even allowed to see the body?"

"Yes."

Karen nodded:

"That's why...I've been hating you Paladins for the past two years."

"...Can you tell me what your wife's name is?"

Lika didn't pay attention to the dissatisfaction in Karen's tone, but took out the small golden round stick, which had the same effect as the Lian Nian Crystal Instrument, and put it between her eyebrows:

"I can help you find out the truth... maybe things are not what you think."

"Then I'll thank the Holy Knight first!"

This matter has always been a thorn in Karen's mind. Now that she has the opportunity to solve the mystery, she is also a little excited:

"My wife's name is Nuofi, and her nickname is Mengmeng. Her hometown is a small village in the west of the kingdom. She came to the royal capital when she was 13 years old. She married me when she was 17 years old. And when she was 22 years old... something happened."

"22 years old... Nofi... Huh?"

Lika murmured and used the golden round stick to search the Sun Church's database for a while, then she couldn't help but make a sound of surprise and glance at Valencia.

"...What's wrong? Lord Paladin, what did you find out? Please tell me!"

Karen quickly begged, and even used the beautiful girl's natural skills without a teacher, which was very touching.

"...It's okay to tell you."

Lika put down the small golden round stick with a complicated expression:

"But you have to be mentally prepared... I'm worried that you won't be able to think about it after knowing the truth."

"...Don't worry, I'm not that fragile yet."

Karen gritted her teeth:

"Even if I really have to die, I want to die clearly."

"You...hey, okay."

Rika sighed helplessly:

"According to the information I found... your wife is not actually dead, she just escaped after her identity was exposed.

The paladins in charge of this matter at that time made your wife's matter a secret and hid the truth from you out of good intentions and did not want you to be implicated. "

Chapter 105 The end of a man’s infatuation is to be severely deceived by a bad woman

"What? Mengmeng is not dead yet?"

As expected, Karen exclaimed, even her pupils shrank.

But within a few seconds, she frowned again:

"That's not right... If Mengmeng is still alive, then my magic circle should give priority to calling her soul into this body... Why did it lock on me all of a sudden?"

"...Because you don't know your wife's true face at all."

Rika sighed again:

"According to what you said before...she married you when she was 17, and the incident happened when she was 22, right? In the five years since you were married, have you ever been to the small village in her hometown?"

"This...no."

Karen seemed to have thought of something and turned pale:

"I mentioned a few times that I would accompany her back to her hometown to visit relatives, but she declined with various excuses."

"Of course she declined because it was not her home at all."

Rika continued:

"The paladins of our church went there to investigate later... The small village your wife mentioned as her hometown was destroyed by a plague long ago due to the actions of cultists.

The real Miss Nofi also died with the destruction of the village at the age of 11... The person who later fell in love with and married you using the identity of Miss Nofi was actually another woman. "

"...Is this actually the case?"

Karen immediately covered her face, her shoulders shrugged slightly, and tears flowed from her fingers.

Although Valenza and the others who were watching were also curious about the truth that followed, they were more sympathetic to Karen, so no one made a sound to urge them, and waited patiently for Karen to adjust her mentality.
