She is also a rare person, just like Marika, and is Marika's closest person and a private soldier in Marika's hands.

But she never expected that the woman would treat her as a disposable tool and discard her after use.

Clearly, in the past, before Marika became the [Eternal King], she had done so much for Marika, helping her assassinate so many people, and all the dirty work was taken over by them, the Black Blade Assassins...

It was clearly Marika's order to assassinate the Golden Son Godwin, but in the end she raised the banner of revenge for her son and prepared to kill all of them to cover up the truth.

If it weren't for the many men who protected her when she left the city, she would have died in the Royal City of Rodel...

She also thought about the reason, perhaps it was because the bitch [Moon Princess] Lani had tampered with the ceremony.

So she gathered her former subordinates to assassinate Kalia.

But he was captured by [Princess of the Moon] Lani and imprisoned in the prison of the Moonlight Altar, never to see the light of day.

Whether it was Malika or the two fingers that set her free, they all treated them as tools that could be discarded at any time...

This is the end of their lives as assassins and black knives.

sough--

At this moment, her keen hearing picked up a very subtle movement, as if someone was gently stepping on the weeds outside the church.

She put on her scale armor, crouched on the ground, and slowly put her hands behind her back, tightly gripping the black knife that contained the Rune of Death.

This is the only trump card she can rely on now.

"Who is it, come out!"

Aleto's eyes were filled with cruelty and solemnity.

However, the next second, her eyes changed, and the figure that appeared in front of her made her a little unbelievable.

"Dixi...? My daughter... is that you?"

The person who appeared before her was completely beyond her expectations. She never thought that it was her daughter - Di Xi, whom she had not seen for a thousand years.

"It's me, Mother."

The girl with the black knife who appeared at the entrance of the church slowly took off her hood, revealing her pretty face that was 70% similar to Aleto and as beautiful as an iceberg.

"you......"

Aleto was so excited to see his daughter again that he was speechless. He never expected to see his daughter here.

But just as he relaxed his vigilance, he suddenly felt something was wrong and his eyes became sharp again.

No, she clearly remembered that Dixi was sent by Queen Marika to protect a man named Reinhardt a thousand years ago, and since that man died, Dixi has also disappeared.

But now, Di Xi knew his location and appeared in front of him.

What is the plan?!

226. The Terror of Predestined Death (7.5K)

"...Did that bitch from Kalia send you to kill me?"

Aleto looked at Di Xi who appeared in front of him, and inadvertently saw the emblem of the magic academy hanging on Di Xi's chest, and a sneer gradually appeared on his face.

"Haha, I knew that bitch wouldn't be so kind as to let me go. I didn't expect that she would actually send you to hunt me down. What a bad taste."

Aleto cursed Lani who was far away in a sarcastic tone, not giving Di Xi any chance to explain.

This made Di Xi feel helpless and speechless.

Then Aleto suddenly changed his tone and couldn't help but sigh, "Oh, the fratricide between mother and daughter... This kind of evil taste is exactly the same as that woman Marika."

To be precise, in Aleto's mind, Marika might do something even more extreme.

If it were Marika, she would not only stage a drama of mother-daughter killing each other, but also play with Di Xi's soul and make her a puppet loyal to her.

Having followed Marika for so many years, no one knew better than her the woman's cold-bloodedness and arrogance, as well as her playful nature that was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

However, Di Xi shook his head and denied her statement.

"No, no, Mother. I am indeed affiliated with the Rhea Lukalia School of Magic in Lienia, and the school is indeed allied with Kalia. However, I am not a subordinate of [Moon Princess] Rani, and I do not need to obey any of her orders."

Di Xi tried her best to defend herself, hoping that her mother would believe her.

And her efforts did yield the desired results.

Aleto hesitated for a moment, but she did not deny her daughter's words. Instead, she looked back and forth at Di Xi's little face with suspicion.

As an assassin, and the leader of the most powerful assassin organization, Black Knife, he naturally firmly believes in the creed that one cannot trust anyone's words, even if the other person is his own daughter.

Di Xi is also a member of the Black Knife, and was once trained as the next leader, so he naturally knows this.

Then he continued to explain: "Mother, the master I serve now is not Lani, nor is it Master Seren who commands the magic academy, but Reinhardt."

"Reinhardt is the master I serve..."

"Reinhardt?"

After hearing this, she suddenly understood, but the sneer on her face did not diminish in the slightest.

"Heh, I didn't expect it was that man. That man is still alive."

Even though she was in jail, it didn't mean she was uninformed.

Aleto knew quite a bit about this man, Reinhardt.

Thousands of years ago, in that devastating war where no king emerged victorious, Reinhardt fought fiercely against the strongest demigod, Latarn, and ultimately died, a story told by the world.

Moreover, this man is the one that Queen Marika said could provide protection for her and Black Knife.

But before he could get there, the man died.

As a result, her daughter Di Xi also went missing. During the endless years of torture in prison, she thought Di Xi had already died.

However, not long ago, she learned a piece of confirmed news in prison—

Reinhardt and the Moon Princess, Rani, became partners, and they signed an eternal pact within the ruins of the Manus Selis Cathedral on the Moonlight Altar.

Now, her daughter Dixi said that the monarch she serves is Reinhard?

How is this any different from that bitch from Kalia sending Dixi to hunt him down?

Although she thought so, her eyes softened when she looked at Di Xi.

"My daughter... Dixi... You must have suffered a lot over the years, right? That man Reinhardt must have ordered you and used you to do many things you were unwilling to do, right?"

"No... Mother, my Lord Reinhardt treats me well and has never asked me to do anything against my will."

"Hehe...Alas...My poor daughter was cruelly brainwashed by that guy..."

Aleto sighed again.

She completely scoffed at Dixi's defense of Reinhardt.

Didn't you force Di Xi to do anything he didn't want to do?

Aleto said that he didn't believe it at all. Not to mention the value and importance of the Black Knife Assassin in the border area, her daughter Di Xi's appearance and figure are also among the best in the border area. How could the Faded Ones who are vying for power not be moved?

Even the man who used to be He Leilu fell in love with Queen Marika at first sight...

"Mother...."

Seeing his mother Aleto talking to herself there, a trace of doubt and confusion slowly emerged on Di Xi's pretty face like an icy mountain.

She didn't understand why her mother was so hostile to her master.

Is it because of Lani? Is it because the master is a knight of Kalia?

Or is it because of Queen Marika?

Or maybe, my mother has become stupid after being locked up in prison for so long?

However, no matter which possibility it was, she had to explain it clearly to her mother, otherwise her plans and expectations would probably be in vain.

"Mother, everything is not as you imagined. Lord Reinhardt has been very kind to me. Even my arrival this time was not at the behest of anyone. Neither Lord Reinhardt nor Moon Princess Lani has ever given me any orders."

"Haha, my daughter, you are still so naive..."

Aleto chuckled, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Di Xi revealed deep disappointment.

She was no longer in the mood to listen to Dixi's defense of Reinhardt, so she slowly stood up, straightened her clothes, took out the winding black knife from her waist and took a stance.

"If that's the case, prove it to me, just like you did in the Royal City of Rodel... Use your power to convince me, and let me see if my beloved daughter has made any progress after all this time!"

"Mother...."

Di Xi wanted to say something else, but it was too late. Aleto had already launched the attack.

Seeing this, Di Xi swallowed his words, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he also took out a dagger and rushed out.

At that moment, the figures of Aleto and Dixi disappeared from the spot.

when--

Suddenly, there was a loud explosion in the air, and several sparks flew out continuously, like firecrackers.

It fell on Dixi and also on Aleto.

During these thousand years, Di Xi has never stopped honing and practicing himself. His current strength is incomparable to the past. He has already surpassed his mother, the leader of the Black Knife. In just twenty rounds, he has made Aleto show signs of defeat and exposed numerous flaws.

"good chance."

At the moment of seizing one of the flaws revealed by Aleto, Di Xi, who was flying in the air, turned around and lightly stepped on the broken wall behind him.

Hound pace!

Boom! With a loud noise, the broken church wall collapsed. Di Xi's figure disappeared in an instant, and appeared in front of Aleto in the blink of an eye.

At this time, Aleto was keeping the dagger raised. Logically speaking, she had no way to avoid it this time.

But the moment Di Xi approached, a smile appeared on Aleto's face.

"...My daughter, you are still so naive."

Death Blade!

Aleto suddenly reversed the black dagger in his hand and slashed from top to bottom like a knife.

The sharp blade drew a black blade light in the air, leaving a red and black mark, and even cut off the Radagan statue not far away.

Red and black flames burned quietly on the smooth cut stones and grass, and the heat emitted distorted the air.

But there was no joy of victory on Aleto's face. Even his original smile slowly disappeared, replaced by an extremely solemn look.

Because her previous attack missed, not only did she not hurt Di Xi, she didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.

And Di Xi's figure disappeared silently.

Besides the sound of burning flames, the only thing echoing in my ears was the faint sound of the wind.

"Mother, I am no longer the person I used to be."

Di Xi's voice came from behind. Just as Aleto was about to move, he felt his arms and shoulders being tightly bound.

Di Xi, who appeared out of nowhere, hooked his legs tightly around Aleto's armpits and rode on him.

Then he suddenly leaned his body backwards, and the whole person and Aleto spun in the air, and then fell to the ground.

Boom——

The entire ruins of the Perum Church trembled slightly, splashing some dust. Aleto came into close contact with the fresh soil, and suddenly his eyes went dark.

"...You are truly worthy of being my daughter."

After Aleto uttered these words with all his strength, he fainted.

"Sorry, Mother."

Di Xi bowed deeply to his mother who was already in a coma.

It was not her original intention to fight with her mother, but she had no choice. She originally wanted to have a good chat with her.

Unfortunately, her mother had no such intention and was too lazy to even listen to her explanation.

"Ugh...."

Di Xi couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his mother lying on the ground.

However, there is now a new problem -
