Chapter 441 Coffin
Chapter 441 Coffin
In Yingfeng City, the City Lord’s Mansion.
Kylo was sitting in the study of the City Lord's Mansion, handling government affairs. Suddenly, he felt a palpitation. He looked at the midday sun outside the window and recalled that he seemed to have started handling government affairs when the sun went down yesterday.
Kailuo rubbed his eyes, as if he had stayed up all night again. He had heard before that if a person did not sleep for a long time, his will would be weakened, and there was even a risk of sudden death. Many cruel city lords liked to use this method to torture their enemies.
After covering the animal-skin document on the table and putting down his pen, Kylo decided to take a nap before getting up for dinner. On the way to the bedroom, Kylo saw the servant repairing the lock of the storage room out of the corner of his eye.
He couldn't help but think of Alexander, and he didn't know where he and Ms. Storm were now. Then, he was furious. That idiot, he actually broke into the warehouse and took two bottles of purified water when he couldn't even bear to drink it.
If it was given to Ms. Storm as a gift, that would be fine. But when Ms. Storm refused to accept it, the fool actually drank it himself!
Suddenly, Kylo remembered the gift that the family brought to Master Huang Shiren. Except for the meditation method and a few spells, Master Huang Shiren didn't like the rest of the supplies and gave them directly to Alexander the fool.
If I remember correctly, those supplies are temporarily stored in a warehouse in Windward City. Kailuo walked out of the City Lord's Mansion quickly. After working an all-night shift, his throat was dry and uncomfortable. He just went to the big fool's supplies to get two bottles of water to moisten his throat.
When he arrived outside the warehouse, there were heavy soldiers sent by the family guarding it. After all, these supplies belonged to Alexander, and Kylo was trying to think of a reason to convince him to let him in.
But surprisingly, when the guards saw that it was him, they bowed and let him in. Seeing this, Kylo frowned. This was Alexander's "private property". Even if he was his brother, he would not let him in without asking.
Entering the warehouse, Kylo found some noise inside. He was a little confused. How could there be someone else here? But considering the reaction of the guards outside, could it be Ryan?
Kylo walked into the warehouse and unexpectedly saw an unexpected person, that is, Poirot, the old butler of the Bonaparte family. But what Kylo didn't expect was that in addition to the supplies, there was an open space in the middle of the warehouse, and a coffin was placed in the middle of the open space.
Poirot was carefully using grease to maintain the coffin to prevent it from cracking due to dryness. Yes, the coffin was made of wood, and in this world, logs were rarer than water. Therefore, the only people who could use the coffin were the successive patriarchs of the Bonaparte family.
Most family members were mummified or cremated and buried in the family tomb.
Now a coffin suddenly appeared here, what is this? !
The old butler also heard Kai Luo's footsteps. He turned around, raised his eyebrows, and asked Kai Luo with a little sadness: "Master Kai Luo, do you have any news for me?"
Kai Luo shook his head: "No news, I just came to see, this coffin?"
The old butler nodded: "It turns out that the time has not come yet. Now that things have come to this, I will not hide it from you. This coffin is prepared for Master Alexander."
"What? What the hell is going on?!"
The old butler put down the oil bottle and began to carefully wipe the coffin with a fine velvet cloth: "Master Kailuo, do you still remember the prophecy that Master Alexander has been talking about since he was a child?"
"The prophecy that he would become an apprentice of a superhuman? Although I always thought that was just a lie told by the wizard back then, or simply his imagination, I never expected that he would actually become an apprentice of a superhuman, even though that superhuman was a gerbil."
The old butler explained: "That is not a simple prophecy, nor is it the original prophecy."
"What do you mean?"
"That wizard did owe our Bonaparte family a favor, but it was not the master who made him owe the favor, but our ancestors."
"You mean the first Bonaparte?"
"Yes, the ancestor was just a commoner back then. During a gathering, he found a seriously injured wizard. He saved the wizard and took care of him until he recovered.
After the wizard recovered, he asked the ancestor what kind of reward he wanted. The ancestor wanted to be a wizard apprentice just like Master Alexander. Unfortunately, after the wizard's test, the ancestor did not have the potential to become a supernatural being, so the wizard could only ask the ancestor to change his request.
The second request made by the ancestor was to become the most prominent noble in the world, and his family would last forever. It happened that the wizard was proficient in prophecy, so he promised three prophecies. The ancestor used the first prophecy at that time. The wizard asked the ancestor to go to a place where he could meet the future king. As long as he could follow the king's footsteps closely, the ancestor's request would be fulfilled.
So under the guidance of the wizard, he went to a wasteland, where he encountered bandits and also met Lady Storm. When Lady Storm killed all the bandits and saved the ancestor, at that moment, only the ancestor and Lady Storm were left in that area, and it became clear who the future king would be.
Kai Luo was suddenly shocked: "So the ancestor's persistent proposal of marriage and the ancestral precepts he left behind?"
The old butler nodded. "Yes, what could be a closer relationship than becoming a member of the king's family? Moreover, the ancestor was truly attracted by the beauty of Ms. Storm, and his infatuation with her was also true."
Kai Luo looked at the old butler suspiciously: "How did you know?"
The old housekeeper coughed awkwardly: "My ancestors had a bad memory, so they had the habit of writing memos. And the family library is mine..."
"Grandpa Poirot, did you peek at your ancestor's diary?"
"Well... the ancestor is famous for his broad-mindedness, so he probably won't blame me. As I said just now, after the ancestor settled down, he asked the wizard for the second prophecy.
According to the prophecy, the ancestor found a relic and obtained a lot of property, weapons and armor, so it only took one generation for him to go from a commoner to a great noble.
But being just a noble was still far from what my ancestor wanted. At that time, my ancestor was already very old, and he knew that it would be difficult for him to realize his wish of establishing a long-lasting family in his lifetime.
So he and the wizard agreed that when the critical moment came, the wizard would return to the Bonaparte family and make the final prophecy. "
"Alexander back then?"
"Yes, the wizard gave his last prophecy to Master Alexander. He predicted that Master Alexander would become an apprentice of a supernatural being in the future, and follow his teacher and the future king to save the world. Although he died, the Bonaparte family has become the most prominent family in the world since his death.
Live forever! "
"Master Alexander seems to have only remembered the first half of the prophecy." The old butler glanced at the coffin beside him and said, "This coffin has been prepared a long time ago. Each generation of the Bonaparte family has only one coffin for burial. It is an honor enjoyed exclusively by the patriarch.
But this coffin will only be left to Master Alexander. Master Kailo, you should not complain, because your brother let Bonaparte step on him and go to a higher place.
He deserves it.”
"No! With me here, I can also lead Bonaparte to glory. Family members can sacrifice for the glory of the family, but the family must never sacrifice family members in order to achieve glory!
I will leave immediately to bring my brother back!"
The old butler shook his head: "Master Kailuo, do you remember? They flew away."
Hearing this, Kailuo became depressed. In the warehouse, the old man and the young man were no longer in the mood to communicate.
He just stared blankly at the coffin.
