The Black Knight from the Blue Planet
Chapter 1067 Dowry
Facing her daughter with her head on the table, although the woman in front of her did not faint, her whole body was trembling and she did not even dare to look at her daughter.
After all... not many people can accept a loved one whose head is separated from his body.
"Okay, Mary, go up and rest first."
The noble lady nodded slightly, glanced at the head on the table again with a pale face, and then left in a panic.
Prini held her head back in her arms, looking very disappointed.
Hornby Eckerd walked over, hugged his daughter, and said with a smile: "Don't be too sad. Your mother is a woman after all. She has never seen such an exciting scene since she was a child. It is normal that she cannot accept it for the time being. "
Prini shook her head: "I'm not blaming my mother, I'm just blaming myself... It's all my fault that I'm in this situation."
"Speaking of this... who killed you?" Hornby's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Dad will avenge you."
Pliny shook her head again: "No need, this matter has passed. It's fine now."
Hornby looked at Pliny quietly, and then his body slowly relaxed. He suddenly seemed a little older: "Really? That's right... Sometimes many things in this world are beyond one's control. Even my father can't deal with that person, right?"
Pliny smiled softly: "It's none of your business, father, it's my problem."
"Is it Hardy?"
Pliny's expression remained unchanged: "How is it possible..."
Hornby interrupted her: "Although I can't find any evidence, after thinking about it, only Hardy has the ability to kill you and make you have no intention of resisting."
Pliny was silent. At this point, there was no point in refuting.
Although his father is not very smart, he has thought about some things for a long time, and he can indeed get to the truth of some things.
Hornby clenched his fists: "Daughter, if I want to go against Hardy, will you help me?"
"Father, this is not good."
"But I want him to die!" Hornby slammed his fists on the table: "He killed you, why did you stop me?"
Pliny looked at her father quietly for a while, then said slowly: "It's impossible, you can't kill him, and besides, he had a legitimate reason to kill me."
"What reason!"
"I killed his father!"
Hornby's anger suddenly came to a halt.
He sat down, the anger on his face was gone, only melancholy: "When did it happen?"
"He hasn't come to the royal city yet." Pliny said with a smile: "I found out from the almanac in the royal library that there was a nightmare saddle that was lost among the people and was in the hands of the Hardy family. Then I found I took the opportunity to catch his father while he was doing business, and wanted to find out the whereabouts of the saddle. He even sent people to his home... to kill him. "
"You should be doing it very secretly." Hornby asked curiously: "But how did he find out..."
"I also thought that I was very secretive. When I first met him, I knew that he was Old Hardy's son, and then... I thought that he didn't know anything and wanted to recruit him as my subordinate, or even... Future husband. But I didn’t expect that he came to Wangcheng to investigate the cause of my father’s death and find out the murderer. Until now, I still don’t know how he was sure that I was the murderer.”
Prini spoke with pride in her eyes.
Not for myself, but to be proud of Hardy.
The man he likes is so smart and so powerful.
"Even you can't figure it out, and I can't figure it out even more." Hornby sighed: "No wonder he can conquer such a large territory."
"Father, I came back this time just to see you." Pliny said with a smile, "I will leave in a few days."
"Aren't you going to stay?"
"Is this suitable for me?"
"No problem... No matter how strange you are, you can't be more strange than those group of undead people." Speaking of the players, Hornby's eyes became strange: "I really can't describe the style of those people, it's too outrageous. "
Speaking of this topic, Prini also laughed.
She has heard a lot of jokes about the undead since she returned to this main plane.
The women of the elves are relatively peaceful and like to gossip when they get together.
There is a lot of gossip about Hardy, and then there is the gossip about players.
What's wearing armor on the upper body and running around with bare legs on the lower body.
Press your head against a toilet, wear briefs and run around looking for people to ask for tasks, etc.!
It's all kinds of indescribable abstractions that don't care about outsiders' eyes.
Of course... most of them are also particularly obsessed with so-called 'justice'.
Sometimes, even if he is killed dozens of times and his strength is hidden to the extreme, he still has to pursue the so-called justice.
Thanks to their efforts, the nobles now no longer dare to bully others outside.
They are all bloody lessons.
Pliny thought for a while and said: "Forget it. Now that the battle for the throne has come out, Queen Sissi seems to be able to sit in that position for several more decades. There is not much point in my staying. At home, The inheritance rights will be left to my younger brother.”
Hornby nodded. He didn't know that there was no chance of competing for the throne with Queen Sissi now.
Not to mention that Queen Sissi’s daughter is the Pope of the Church of Light, but I heard that Hardy and the Queen also have a particularly ambiguous relationship.
It can be said that as long as Queen Sissi does not deliberately commit suicide, her position is as stable as Mount Tai.
"If you don't go home, what are your plans?"
"I have settled down in the elves' place and have my own house." Prini said with a fascinated expression: "The atmosphere there is good, and they do not discriminate against us headless knights. More importantly..."
Hadi is the prince of the elves, and there is a "guard regiment" in the elves. If she works hard, she may be able to get in.
Thinking of this, she unconsciously became happy.
"What's more important?" Hornby asked curiously.
Prini smiled shyly.
Hornby understood... As a person who has experienced it, how could he not understand his daughter's little thoughts.
He was silent for a while and said: "In this case, I will give a big gift to Hardy tomorrow."
"Huh?" Prini couldn't help asking: "What do you mean!"
"My daughter has a man, and as a father, I have to prepare a dowry gift, don't you think so?"
Facing her father's ridicule, even Prini felt a little embarrassed.
But then she asked curiously: "What are you going to give him? Hadi is very famous now, and he doesn't like ordinary things."
"I know, so the things you give him must be very useful to him." (End of this chapter)
