In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

The girl nodded seriously.

"Fifty years ago, Syracuse's families disappeared on a large scale. According to rumors, the Gray Hall didn't even exist back then, and Syracuse was controlled by twenty-four families..."

"And a sudden attack by Rotish destroyed half of the families..."

The girl continued to speak, and Maria understood what the girl was talking about... She couldn't help but lower her eyes, feeling a little helpless.

Obviously, the Rotish the girl was talking about should be what she did at the beginning.

So... is this clue also broken?

Maria frowned.

Meanwhile, the Sakota woman suddenly straightened her back.

"If that's the case... then it seems like there was also a Rotish incident ten years ago..."

Chapter 229: The wake ceremony begins!

"It was about ten years ago... but I hadn't been to Syracuse at that time, so I don't know much about it."

The Sakota woman scratched her head, and seeing that both of them were focusing their attention on her, she quickly took precautions.

She didn't know much, and it couldn't be said to be solid evidence, it was just some gossip.

Just listen to it, don't take it seriously.

"At that time, the Texas family, far away in Colombia, had just chosen to return to Syracuse... and the other families at the time were also extremely wary of this powerful new family. Many families expressed clear resistance to them... Some even declared that if the Texas family arrived, they would let these outsiders know what Syracuse was all about."

"Then... the Texas family came..."

"I don't know what happened between them."

"But what I do know is that in the end, the Texas family successfully lured out all the families that were hostile to it, and brought them together, engaging in a thorough fight face to face!"

"But a lot of bizarre things happened during the process."

"Some say they saw the moon fall to the earth that day."

"Some say there was no moon that day, and a heavy rain washed the blood all over Volsinia..."

The Sakota woman said this and also touched her lips with her hand.

Maria sat quietly by the side, without urging him, just looking at the other person seriously.

"According to rumors, more than half of Syracuse's families participated that night... But according to family and Gray Hall records, there were only two families involved in the battle, besides Gray Hall and the Texas family."

"But the people of Syracuse have never heard of these two families... It's not that they know about them but dare not say it at the time, but in the true sense of the word. When we ask them about their names, they will look confused and ask us what we don't know!"

The Sakota woman looked at Maria as if she was telling a ghost story, her eyes wide open, trying to scare Maria.

But obviously, for Maria, ghost stories of this level were not enough to scare her at all.

His calm eyes made the Sakota woman feel a little embarrassed.

She scratched her head and curled her lips, knowing that she was bored.

"Then, the Gray Hall sent a large number of people to investigate, but unfortunately, we didn't find anything..."

"Although the Grey Hall also sent personnel to question some of the people who participated in the event, they also remained silent on the matter."

"Gray Hall certainly can't force them to tell all this."

"As for the other ordinary people... we don't know much, and others don't know much either. It's just that after that period, the Texas family officially received an invitation from the Saluzzo family... This means they successfully became one of the twelve families of Syracuse today."

"That's all I know... I don't know if it's the Rotish you were talking about."

After the Sakota woman finished speaking, she leaned back in her chair.

Lavinia on the side lowered her head seriously, thinking about the message in the other person's words.

Maria, on the other hand, narrowed her eyes slightly.

Ten years ago…Texas?

Family feud?

Rob?!

Almost subconsciously, Maria thought of the Rob she had met before.

When the other party saw him before, he had completely lost his fear... Obviously, as a wolf lord who has lived for who knows how long, even if he is not very smart, he would not be so arrogant as to directly fight with his imaginary target after gaining some power.

In any case, we should send some reference objects to test it out.

Besides, it wasn't necessary for me to meet him... Overall, it was Rob who took the initiative to find me.

There are only two reasons for this somewhat bizarre result.

One possibility is that Rob was overwhelmed by the strange power, causing him to actively seek out Maria without being fully prepared and try to prove his strength.

The other reason was that Maria's situation at the time forced him to intervene.

And what were I doing at that time?

"At that time... Zaro was explaining the family's plan to me... the plan to rebel against the Gray Hall..."

Maria narrowed her eyes silently, and gradually some connections were made in her mind.

Meanwhile, the confused Sakota girl suddenly became nervous again.

She looked out the bright window, at the figure swaying in the distance, her eyes slightly narrowed.

After a moment, she turned her head helplessly and looked at Maria.

"that……"

She spoke carefully.

"Are you...free now?"

"The priest... seems to want to discuss something with you..."

……

Almost a week had passed since Maria came to his side.

This is a very delicate time.

It is not short, a full week is quite enough.

But for people, a week seems to go by too fast.

Introverts might not even spend enough time this week to remember each other's names.

But Maria seemed to have this magical power.

Although Lavinia hadn't spoken a few words to Maria these days, nor had they had a serious conversation, she was unconsciously attracted to Maria because of various things.

From the initial communication on the mobile platform to the subsequent life-saving grace, and as time passed, he saw more and more mysterious but prominent figures gathering around Maria...

The most obvious manifestation of this is Lavinia's daily life.

Just a few days ago, when she went out to buy bread, she was targeted by a group of gangs as usual, who tried to steal her living expenses.

At this time in the past, for safety's sake, she would always choose to hand over the money honestly...and these small gangs generally wouldn't go too far, and the end result was that Lavinia's life would be a little more difficult for the next few days.

But that day, Lapland and Celinina happened to see this scene.

then……

The two girls beat up the gang members one by one.

He even called over the other team's boss and scolded him in front of everyone.

The power of the aura was so strong that it was hard for her to imagine.

But even these two girls still acted like well-behaved children in front of Maria... This wasn't a student's reverence for their teacher, but more of a reverence for the powerful...

Lavinia wondered what Maria had done to the two girls.

She only knew that she knew nothing about Maria...

While thinking, Lavinia put down the pen in her hand and stared blankly out the window.

At this moment, outside the window, Maria's figure is slowly disappearing...

She has been like this all this time.

Ever since she was last invited to talk by Father Agnel, one of the most senior leaders of the Gray Hall, Maria often went out at night and returned home before the next day's training.

Such a mysterious action made her even more curious about this woman.

But she didn't dare to really ask anything, so she could only support her head with her hands and sit in her seat in a daze.

until……

"Hey~"

The bright red wine glass was suddenly pressed against the side of Lavinia's face, which frightened her.

When she looked back, she helplessly discovered that it was Lappland's doing.

"Hey hehe~"

Lappland smiled, holding two wine glasses in his hands, and his face looked very happy.

She sighed and sat down at the table beside her. She glanced at Lavinia's Law Records again and curled her lips helplessly.

"Are you watching this again?"

"Ah."

Faced with Lappland's confidence, Lavinia suddenly felt an inexplicable inferiority for some reason.

She was silent for a while, then carefully closed her book and lowered her eyes slightly.

Although Lappland never mentioned it, judging from her daily behavior and her extremely special white hair, she could more or less guess that she had some relationship with the Saluzzo family.

When facing such a big figure in a large family, she always appears to be very cautious.

After all, I am just an ordinary person with no one to rely on.

But obviously, Lappland didn't think so.

She looked at the girl's timid appearance, narrowed her eyes slightly, then decisively picked up the other's cup, drank the tea in it, and stuck out her tongue bitterly.

"This stuff tastes terrible... How could you possibly like this?"

"Well... coffee can refresh you..."

"Coffee? I've never heard of it. Syracuse people still have to drink alcohol!"

After saying that, Lappland poured the girl a glass of red wine.

"This is……"

"This is a good red wine from Popolo Winery. I stole it from my home cellar."

Lappland smiled happily.

Lavinia on the side had a conflicted look on her face.

"We...are not old enough to drink yet?"

"So what? No one can control us now anyway."

Lappland waved her hand, looking very pleased.

Lavinia, who was standing by, didn't know if she was convinced by the other party's words. She picked up the wine glass with some hesitation, not knowing whether to drink it.

Just at this moment, Cellinina, who had just returned from outside, also saw this scene.

"Hey, you're back? A poor student?"

When Laplande saw Celinina, he provoked her out of habit, and his expression fully demonstrated what arrogance was.

But Celinina had become somewhat familiar with Lapland during this period, so she didn't say much, but just glanced slightly at the bottle of wine in the other's hand.

"Popollo Winery?"

"Oh? You know it? This is a good thing."

Laplande said this, and although her words were harsh, she still took the glass and poured a glass for Cellinina.

Although she was harsh in her words, it was obvious that Lappland still remembered everyone who lived in this small house.
