The Book of Maiden Contract

When Lin Xiaoke said this, everyone was stunned. Under such circumstances, coupled with Lin Xiaoke's current state, it should be impossible for her to lie, but... not only Mikoto and Tohsaka Rin were dumbfounded, but even one of the parties, Arthur, had an expression of disbelief. They all stared at Lin Xiaoke, wanting an explanation from her.

Of course, the only person who didn't show a shocked expression was cc. She already knew about this. Although it was just a guess, she was obviously right, but she had no way of knowing the details, so she was looking at Lin Xiaoke at this moment... not out of gossip, but because she saw the hope of Lin Luo alive.

Afterwards, Lin Xiaoke began to explain in detail...the world she and Arthur lived in was the Xingyue world where Rin Tosaka lived, and they were still in the same era, but their family has always been hidden, even if they walk outside, they show up under aliases, so the world hardly knows their existence.

Their origins are Lin Luo and King Arthur.

Before the Battle of Jianlan, King Arthur and Lin Luo had a child. The reason for that time is unclear, but the child was finally raised by Bedivere, the most loyal knight around King Arthur. At the beginning, the child didn't know his own life experience, and Bedivere didn't tell him everything until he grew up and was dying.

His father's name was Lin Luo, and his mother was King Arthur. After the battle of Jianlan, a powerful enemy attacked and could not protect a newborn child, so they used themselves as bait to lure the enemy away, and then Bedivere took the child away. As for what happened to them, Bedivere didn't know, but he believed that they did not die, but could not come back due to some special reasons.

Although Bedivere himself was powerless, he still hoped that the child could find his parents in his lifetime, and after hearing these stories, the child also deeply felt how much his parents had paid for him, and felt helpless, so he made up his mind to find his parents.

But he didn't succeed until he died, so before he died, he ordered his son and daughter to fulfill his wish, and after his death, he even signed a contract with Gaia and entered the Hall of Valor, just for the wish that he will never forget until he dies.

His two children are also upright knights who abide by the spirit of chivalry like him. They will naturally do their best to carry out the entrustment of their father before his death, and they also swore at their father's grave that no matter how long it takes, they will find their ancestors. Before they find them, they will never change their surnames.

So, since then, this family has added such a rule: when a man in the family marries a wife and has children, if the son is named Arthur, if the daughter is named Lin, and the daughter is not allowed to marry, the man can only enter into the family. Similarly, the male surname Arthur and the female surname Lin.

This is not because they disdain outsiders, but because they want to expand the power of this family. After all, if there are only two brothers and sisters, it is not easy to find their ancestors who have disappeared for decades.

But I don’t know if it’s the curse of the family or other reasons. After the brothers and sisters got married, the elder brother only gave birth to a boy, and the younger sister only gave birth to a girl, and the same is true for their children’s children... Passed down from generation to generation, there will always be only two people.

"Sister, wait, that's not right! Don't we have many brothers and sisters in our family? Why do you say there are only two?" When Lin Xiaoke said this, Arthur suddenly interrupted. There are nine brothers and sisters in their generation, and not counting collaterals.

Lin Xiaoke replied indifferently: "Because many of them are adopted, the clansmen who have the blood of Lin Luo and King Arthur are only me and you, and your and my direct descendants."

That's exactly the fact. When they reached the seventh generation, they realized that something was wrong. How long would it take for only two people to find out? So they began to adopt orphans displaced by the war, not only let them follow the family name, but also taught them as strictly as their own children, and cultivated them into true knights no matter in terms of character or force.

Then after these adopted children gave birth to offspring, the whole family became bigger and bigger. Of course, they are still carrying out the task of finding their ancestors, but only the biological children will know the real reason.

But in their generation, the power of the family has almost spread all over the world. Whether it is the church, the Magic Association, or other organizations, more or less their clansmen hide in it... For example, the most powerful magician family in the world, the Barthemero family, is a branch of them.

With the power of their family, if they want to start a war, it is enough to destroy the entire human civilization, but they will not do so, and their purpose is always only one...to find their ancestors!

And the direct descendants want to know the truth of this matter, but also after reaching the age of eighteen, so it is normal for Arthur not to know, after all, he was only seventeen years old when he left Xingyue World.

After hearing this incident, everyone was speechless. They never expected that the relationship between Lin Luo and Lin Xiaoke's family would be so close and complicated. Especially Rin Tosaka, she never thought that in the world she was in, there was such a powerful family hidden, but their purpose was so simple... But they still couldn't understand many of the details, such as King Arthur died in the Battle of Jianlan, and was killed by her own son Mordmore, but why does what they hear now seem to be a little different from history?

Of course, they also knew that history might be tampered with, so they didn't get too entangled in this aspect, but they did see the hope of Lin Luo alive, and that was enough.

"I'm leaving here!" Suddenly, Arthur said with a sullen face.

Everyone looked at him immediately, not knowing why he made such a statement.

"Since finding our ancestors is the long-cherished wish of our family, as descendants, we should try our best to fulfill it, but now..." At this point, Arthur's face flashed with pain and determination, and then he said seriously, "I can't go on like this, I'm sorry everyone, I'm going to challenge the nightmare world!"

After speaking, before everyone could react, Arthur activated the Avenue of Stars and flew towards the sky... Although the nightmare-level world was released by the proxy god, and now the proxy god is the enemy, he will not continue to give pointers, but Arthur has obtained the coordinates of a nightmare-level world not long ago, and he can still go there.

Looking at the place where Arthur disappeared, everyone was stunned for a while, but then, they suddenly saw a white light falling from the sky, and then hit the ground heavily.

Everyone immediately felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, but their faces changed when they saw the figure in the white light, because that person turned out to be... Returning!

"you……"

"Don't gossip, you come with me!"

As soon as everyone said a word, they were interrupted by Guihuilaixi, and then their eyes blurred, and they looked again, and they saw that their hosts and Lin Xiaoke had all returned to Sky City. Guiguilaixi was sitting on the sofa in the middle, but she seemed to be in a bad state, as if she had been seriously injured, and she was no longer as leisurely, indifferent and domineering as she had seen before.

"Don't talk for now." Without waiting for everyone to ask questions, he returned and said, "I think you all know the cause of this incident. Now let me tell you that the proxy gods are divided into three factions, the radical faction, the defender faction and the neutral faction. Overtake us, and then there will be a big war..."

"In this battle, the neutral faction was almost completely wiped out, and our side and the radical faction also suffered a lot of casualties. In the end, both sides were wounded. There were only four of the defenders and me alive, and the radical faction had more than us. Of course, their vitality was also seriously injured. They can no longer participate in the battle of gods in a short period of time, but!"

Hearing the previous words, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but one of them raised their hearts again. Although they really wanted to ask, they were not allowed to speak when they returned home, and it was difficult for them to open their mouths.

"There are three problems now. First, the radicals have snatched the seven hearts of the world from the sixth group. They will temporarily lurk for research. Once they succeed in their research, it will be a fatal threat to us. And we have snatched five from them, and have already let them automatically find the owner."

"Secondly, I already know about Lin Luo's problem. I told him to die once before, otherwise he would never be able to reach the heavenly level if he has no heart. This death is what I expected. Of course, whether he can be resurrected and when he will be resurrected is unknown. You can look forward to it but can't rely on it."

"Third, during the period when the radicals are lurking, although you are not very dangerous, they may come to kill you after all, so during this period of time I will be in charge of this world... Although my current strength is not at its peak, the radicals are also seriously injured. With me in charge, they should not dare to attack. Then, your current strength is like ants to the agent god!"

Having said that, Gui Gui Laixi stood up from his seat and said seriously: "So, in order to be able to fight against the proxy god in the future, I will teach you in person, and the goal I ask you to achieve is at least the level of the first person under the heavenly rank... Then, what is your answer?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, then nodded heavily, "Yes!"

"Huh!" Guigui Laixi sneered immediately, but there was relief in his eyes, "It's a good thing not to hesitate, but don't be too happy, I won't show mercy. For a long time in the future, you will all be living in hell. If you don't make up your mind to die, you won't be able to climb to the top!"

There is only one answer for everyone to this sentence.

"This kind of awareness has already been there!"
