The Righteous Player(s) - Chapter 394
[Chapter 389 The Destiny of Intertwining]
Joseph Buckle… is Ellie’s biological father, “Brother Sledgehammer” in the gallery.
At that time, Elle Morrison’s name was also called Elle Buckle.
At that time, the reason why Joseph left Ariel and divorced her mother was because Ariel’s mother… Clara, his own apprentice, planned to use this child to blackmail her mentor.
She hopes to get more benefits from Joseph…for example, to become a real wizard, or even become a great wizard and mentor.
—Actually, Joseph had already given her a lot.
After Annan completely cleared the gallery, when he explained the final result of the matter to Joseph… Joseph explained the whole truth to Annan.
Also a fragment of the last part of history:
Clara, in fact, had no talent as a wizard at all.
The occult knowledge that Joseph handed over to Claire—including the secret tome written by someone from the Winter family, which recorded the Black Widow and the Skeleton, and many other gods, as well as books containing the secrets of many false gods, etc.
All belong to Joseph’s gift to her.
His original meaning is also very clear.
Joseph knew that the other party did not have the talent to become a wizard, so he gave her this book, hoping that the other party could become a ritualist.
Claire wasn’t the kind of person who was particularly keen on wizarding, anyway.
It learns spells just in the hope that it can improve its status and become a great man.
It’s just that Joseph couldn’t think of it… In the end, Claire chose to become a “Spider Whisperer”.
…he didn’t want to stay with Black Widow’s followers for long.
Maybe one day, he will be poisoned unknowingly.
But Joseph ended up with his wife and son separated, which is also his own fault.
Because Clara was elected to the White Tower back then because of his direct recommendation… At that time, Clara hadn’t started to believe in Black Widow, nor had she come into contact with the taste of power and wealth. She was still thirteen or fourteen years old. Innocent and lovely young girl.
Simply put, he is greedy for people’s bodies.
So she made a direct move and changed the trajectory of her life.
——Clara’s face
can be seen from Ellie’s body.
And her family is real, real ordinary people.
Her father was a dock worker and her mother was a female textile factory worker.
Not to mention that he wasn’t from aristocratic background, he didn’t even know a few words.
Her biggest advantage is her outstanding appearance and willingness to endure hardship.
That’s why Joseph fell in love with her.
He even made Clara his silver-level keeper—the power of the oath allowed Clara to directly increase some basic perception attributes, allowing her to barely pass the exam.
By the way, Annan’s keeper of the curse was Dove, who guarded his advancement at that time.
He then told Kaphne about it again, thinking it wouldn’t be nice not to tell Kaphne.
It’s not worth keeping secrets anyway.
The hard words to say are “his left eye can’t actually see anything”.
Other than that, it’s gone.
After Annan found that the “curse” of the silver rank could improve his attributes, he planned to use it as a reward for the main quest in the next stage – it could not only strengthen the players, but also show that he trusts them and strengthens the power of the oath.
This is called killing three birds with one stone.
As a result, Joseph did not expect that Clara’s personality changed quickly after being invited by him to enter the White Tower… But she had already learned of Joseph’s curse, and even gradually began to blackmail him in turn.
It may not be enough to say blackmail, but she is indeed constantly asking Joseph for more things.
Rather, it is precisely because she is used to a hard life and lacks a sense of security that she cares more about her future quality of life.
And because of Joseph’s desire to control, she didn’t know other wizards, so she could only ask Joseph for more.
According to her original life trajectory, she should have married a foreman, a government clerk, or a teacher… luckily, she could only marry a young clergyman.
Unless the clergyman suddenly advances to the rank of bishop, she will never achieve a class jump in her lifetime.
And after she came into contact with the world of wizards, this became possible –
as long as she could graduate to become a full-fledged wizard, she could be hired by the local nobles, eat and drink for the rest of her life… Even the nobles had to respect her.
Coupled with her well-cared-for appearance and figure, if you are lucky, you can directly become a noble lady.
Yes, although the status of a silver-ranked wizard is much higher than that of the local nobles.
But Clara still hopes that Joseph can get a title, preferably a fief, or get some more money… But Joseph himself knows that he doesn’t need it at all.
As an edict wizard, he is the only extraordinary person who has “the ability to detect lies and truths that can be seen by a third person”.
Whether it is checking the owner of an item, judging whether the other party is lying, carrying poisons and dangerous items, or checking the cause of wounds, seeing people’s real names… and space capabilities that can be easily used, such as putting Someone pushes out, or swaps places.
The school of edicts is actually the most convenient school in real life.
He would be the best cop, detective, bodyguard.
Any nobleman must befriend at least one edict wizard, or else trouble will come to an end.
Rather, it would be a lot more inconvenient to do things if the shaman had his own territory and title…because he was no longer objective.
But Clara couldn’t understand it.
He even contacted some jobs and asked him to use his spells to do some illegal things – and if Joseph refused, Clara would mention that Joseph, her mentor, did not allow her to graduate and become an advanced wizard.
——This is actually the direct cause of the intensification of their conflicts.
Considering the age…
Louis is 30 years old this year, his father died shortly after his birth, and he was taught by his elder brother Alexander himself when he was in the Knights, so Alexander’s mission should be fifty years ago.
And the time when Elle’s mother died was almost forty-six or seven years ago.
So, maybe Joseph even fought against Alexander back then…
Alexander must have let go of a lot of people because of a major intelligence problem… Among them, Ailey’s mother may be included.
Annan thought of this, so he immediately asked:
“Your Excellency Alexander… Do you know a man named Joseph Barker?”
“…Where?”
Perhaps because of the time, Alexander was a little confused for a while.
And after Annan reminded him that this was what happened in the frozen water port forty-five years ago, Alexander’s eyes flashed suddenly.
“You mean… ‘Hand of Justice’ Buckle? I do know him, but I haven’t seen him in a long time, probably dead.
“Yes… I’ve seen him.
In fact, the ex-wife who was chasing him at that time was me, although I still failed to arrest her in the end-because when she surpassed her own strength and forcibly prepared a poison that could kill me with a ritual, she was poisoned because of the failure of the ritual. died.
”
He shook his head with some pity: “It’s a pity.
“Although his ex-wife was arrested, he was still subject to the death penalty according to the law…
“… But in fact, Buckle had already talked to me at that time.
”
When he said this, he paused and added calmly: “Or, I accepted his bribe. Of course, it was within the scope of the ‘transaction’ allowed by the Silver Sir – after all, his ex-wife believed in Black Widow not long ago. Only had time to kill one person. If she changed her charge from ‘living sacrifice’ to ‘murder’ and paid a full bond, it could be shortened to ten years in prison.
“It’s just that his ex-wife doesn’t trust me…or Said that she did not trust Lord Barker, and in the end she died.
And I have taken the potion that Lord Barker gave me, and I cannot return it to him.
I am also very sorry for that.
“So after he returned to the capital, I could only compensate him for my weapon. Although he didn’t want to accept it and said it wasn’t my fault, I finally gave him the hammer.
“Then It’s my favorite spell… not the one he needs the most.
But this is to discipline myself, so I need to give up what I value most in order to discipline myself.
Alexander sighed, and said with some regret and some nostalgia: “Although I know that this is not in line with the value of what he gave me, this is the greatest compensation I can make
.
Zhi Ji asked curiously from the side: “Is it to warn myself that I should be more serious about promising others?
”
”
—No, not to make random promises.
Especially things that you may not be able to do yourself.
Alexander
‘s
eyes were calm and his pupils were deep.
…Wait, Hammer?
Annan
was
stunned for a moment.
No?
With Clara, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com led Amos to start to study ritual spells, and then called the skeleton man, betrayed Alley, and finally constituted “Nightmare: Gallery”. And Amos himself was also held Killed by Barker with the “Right Arm of the Barrier”.
…At the same time, without Annan’s intervention, Louis would probably die in the frozen water port in the end.
And with his level of iron, perhaps the betrayal angel has almost hatched by that time.
If that big, excessive hammer had been given to Buckle by Alexander…everything would be connected.
——This is a cause and effect from outside the nightmare.
from a predetermined destiny.
Annan tentatively asked, “Can I ask? Do you remember the name of that curse?” The
result was no surprise, and the answer was just as Annan expected-
“It’s called the ‘Right Arm of Breaking Barriers’, It’s a one-handed hammer. It’s a curse that I want the blacksmith in the church to tailor for me.”
Alexander replied with nostalgia.
