However, two figures went against the crowd and walked towards the city of Antica.
One of the men was wearing a cloak that completely covered his body, leaving only a hint of black hair visible.
Another blonde woman wore a veil covering her face.
She was holding a small child in her arms.
"Alice, do you think this place is okay?"
"Yeah." The woman named Alice nodded. "Ryder, it's almost done."
"Row."
The man nodded, then walked into the woods, and the woman followed him.
After the two walked into the woods, they seemed to have completely disappeared.
Half an hour later, the two came out of the woods, but this time, the woman was no longer holding the child.
The woman turned around and glanced reluctantly at the woods.
"Will our child end up in a good family?"
She was talking to herself, and seemed to be asking questions to the man beside her.
"Look, Ryder, you haven't named the baby yet."
"Let the person who finds him choose his name. After all, he doesn't belong to us."
Hearing the man's words, Alice's expression flashed with a trace of pain, but she finally nodded with relief.
Who would want to abandon their own child unless they have no other choice?
"Yes, that child doesn't belong to us after all."
"Those old stubborn guys are about to catch up with us. Let's go quickly and lead them to Limusa now. Then I will buy you some time and you can see if you can escape back to the lighthouse."
Reid said this and glanced at Alice behind him, as if he was ready to sacrifice his life.
"I can not go back."
Alice shook her head sadly when she heard this.
"From the day I decided to come out with you, I can't go back, Ryder, you can't abandon me. I have decided to follow you to the ends of the earth."
"Idiot! They only want my life! I am a demon, they cannot tolerate me. But you are different. The old guys in the lighthouse will protect you! You are a rare genius! You still have a bright future..."
Reid said angrily when he saw Alice cut off her own retreat.
But halfway through his speech, looking at Alice in front of him, he finally couldn't bear to hurt her anymore.
The woman in front of him was the one he loved the most. After hearing his words, she just smiled bitterly, and the tears in her eyes couldn't stop falling.
"I just want you, isn't that okay?"
Reid knew that even if the road ahead was hell, she would follow him.
In desperation, he held Alice in his arms.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, the cloak slipped off, and the horns on Reid's head, which symbolized the devil, were exposed to the air.
However, by this time, all the fleeing people had already left, and no one noticed anything unusual about him.
……
"Teacher Triss, Teacher Triss?"
Lit's words brought Triss back to her senses. Triss was stunned for a moment, then said, "What's the matter?"
"Were you just daydreaming?"
"Ah, because I remember that about 20 years ago, a very powerful person did disappear. However, I don't think it has anything to do with Orson."
"Oh?" Litt was stunned for a moment when he heard that, but when he saw that Therese was not going to continue talking, he did not ask any more questions.
This may be something that Teacher Therese is reluctant to mention.
The smart Li Te didn't ask too many questions, but he had already left a thought in his mind.
Chapter 81: New Goal
After walking out of Triss's dormitory, Lit slowly walked around the campus, thinking about what to do next.
Judging from what she said just now, the issue of bloodline is very complicated and cannot be explained simply.
.
It would be difficult to find a solution unless it was Orson's biological parents, or someone who had a deep understanding of the demon bloodline.
At present, apart from consulting various ancient books to find the problem, we can only take it one step at a time.
At this moment, an idea suddenly came to Litt's mind.
Is it okay if Orson can't recover?
At least, I can still protect Orson for the rest of his life, and... I can let Orson stay by my side for the rest of his life...
As soon as this thought came into Litt's mind, it was immediately extinguished.
Lit hurriedly shook his head.
"No, no, this idea is wrong!"
She immediately denied herself.
"Li Te, Li Te, when you arrived at the new home, it was Orson who raised you. Orson treated you like a brother. How could you have such thoughts? It's really treasonous..."
Leeteuk said this and patted his cheek quickly.
But then her mood dropped again.
Although it is said that one should not have such rebellious thoughts, but if one thinks about it carefully, if Orson really marries Olivia, he obviously will not be happy either.
So, am I just going to watch Orson move further and further away from me?
Or would it be better to express your feelings now?
Orson had never taken himself seriously before, and had always regarded himself as a junior...
I have to make him understand that I am a person of the opposite sex and the same age as him.
Thinking of this, Li Te nodded, and then set out on the road back to the manor.
……
On the other hand, Orson stayed in the manor for two days. Except that he had servants serving him every day and reduced the frequency of going out, everything was no different from usual.
"Master Leeteuk sent a letter yesterday saying he would be back at noon today."
Early in the morning, the butler pushed open Orson's door and spoke.
In the past two days, this astute housekeeper also understood Orson's daily routine, so he specially arranged to come to Orson when he had woken up for a while in the morning and was awake.
"I understand. Just be prepared to welcome Leeteuk."
"Okay, excuse me." Upon hearing this, the butler bowed and walked out of the room.
At noon, Litt returned to the manor. The first thing she did when she entered the mansion was to go straight to the master bedroom on the second floor and find Orson.
Pushing open the door and looking at Orson sitting at the desk, Litt ran up excitedly and then covered Orson's eyes.
"Okay, no need to guess. No one except you would enter the house like this."
Before Litt could ask, Orson spoke directly.
"Eh? Boring." Litt said uninterested, then let go of his hand and stood next to Orson.
"Orson, I've delivered the letters to them, and I've also said hello to Lena for you."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Orson said this, his tone as usual.
"Well...can't you praise me more?"
Li Te pouted and pretended to be dissatisfied.
"Oh?"
When Orson heard this, he raised his head and stared at Yanlit.
Seeing that Lit had turned his head away shyly, Orson smiled and said:
"Leet, you've grown up, and these things are all natural."
"After all, you are my proudest sister."
After hearing the first half, Lit was still somewhat happy, until Orson said "sister".
Leeteuk's face suddenly became unhappy again.
Orson saw how quickly Litt's expression changed, and realized that his words had made Litt unhappy, so he couldn't help but laugh.
"What's the matter? I've been your brother for almost a year. Isn't there a saying that goes, once a teacher, always a father? Now I don't ask you to call me brother, can't I just call you sister?"
"Humph, sophistry!"
Litt knew he couldn't win the argument with Orson, so he didn't continue talking about this topic, but changed the subject.
"By the way, Orson, I went to see Teacher Triss, and she told me about your problem."
"Hmm? What did she say?"
"Well... don't blame me for what I said. After all, this matter might... be a bit of a blow to you."
"It's okay, and maybe I might have
knew,"
When Orson saw Tie's reaction, he already had a vague premonition in his heart.
"Did Teacher Triss say that my bloodline is not pure human bloodline?"
"Ah."
When Litt saw that Orson already knew about this, she was immediately relieved. She was originally afraid that Orson would not be able to accept it, but now she feels much better.
She then continued:
"Even... Teacher Triss said that you, Orson, might not even have human blood."
"Hmm?" Orson heard this and looked at Litt curiously.
He had anticipated that he had demon blood when he used the demon power in the Limusa Temple and later when he talked with Limusa. Subsequent events directly confirmed his thoughts.
But Triss said she has no human blood?
If I didn't have human blood, how could I have managed to avoid being discovered as a demon for the past 18 years?
Orson thought so and looked at Litt curiously, ready to listen to the information Triss told her.
Litt told Orson everything Triss had told her, and after Orson had listened, she added:
"By the way, when Teacher Triss was chatting with me, she also mentioned someone. About twenty years ago, which was exactly the time when we were born, a very powerful person whom Teacher Triss knew also disappeared. That person's name was Alice. I don't know if she has any connection with you, Orson, but if Orson wants to check, I can help you investigate."
It is a very painful thing to know that your parents are not your biological parents, just like Leeteuk. She lived in her adoptive parents' family for the first eighteen years. If no one told Leeteuk about her life experience, then Leeteuk would just think of herself as a child from a farmer's family and live her ordinary life.
The same is true for Orson.
"but……"
As Litt said this, he was also preparing Orson to be mentally prepared.
"After all, Orson, you have pure demon blood in your veins, so one of your parents must be a demon. So, the fate of both of them... may not be very good."
"It doesn't matter. I've already made preparations. Whether they are still alive or not, I will find them."
Orson said this, clarifying his goal.
What happens after we find them?
Orson didn't know either.
