When this extremely direct question reached Snape's ears, the expression on his face became even more indifferent.This is actually the self-disguise he's used to, and Lucius knows it all too well.

"Are you just a portrait?"

A question sentence, but the tone is decisive.

A Malfoy's limbs may be weakened by accident, but his awareness is not.

Lucius couldn't be more clear about the power of the magic portrait left by the deceased.

Facing the silence of the portrait, Lucius' feelings became complicated.

All the things that happened in the magical world, now recalled, already have the feeling of the previous life.

This portrait can carry Snape's thinking ability, that is to say, it carries the soul of the master of potions.As for items that can carry a person's soul, Lucius would not make second guesses.

After reading the propaganda about the savior's efforts to solve the Horcruxes and end the war, Lucius looked at his best friend trapped in this portrait, and he couldn't help but sigh that the creation trick people.

"This is an attempt that unfortunately succeeded." Facing the doubt in Lucius' eyes, Snape explained dryly.

"Hehe, indeed. It's more like you to leave the whole world to die." Lucius mocked himself speciously, but there was no expectation in his voice, "If Your Excellency the Savior can know your existence, I probably still Can we expect some of the return passages to be opened from the other side?"

In fact, when the conclusion that Snape's portrait was actually a Horcrux was just deduced, the turmoil in Lucius' heart was absolutely turbulent.

But with the passage of time, and the occurrence of these subsequent changes.Lucius also quickly realized that everything related to the magic world has nothing to do with himself here.

Regardless of the considerations, it was a good thing for Lucius that Snape's Horcrux was here at this moment.

On this continent, it was impossible for Lucius to find another person who understood the situation he was about to face better than Snape.

"I think, now you should be able to directly share with me the possible solutions you think about?" Lucius took a deep breath, retracted all the fragmented thoughts in front of him, and refocused, "I'm even curious when did you I started to think of designing such a plan. Is it because of my worries? Or is it because the rich new materials in this world have already attracted you enough?"

"Perhaps I should applaud your precise execution?" Snape snorted.

"As I said, I'm also a student who got an O in Potions." Lucius finally laughed when he heard that.

Communication between two fraternal wizards is cryptic and reserved.For the Elf King, this is not a puzzle that can be solved in a short time.

And communicating with a moving portrait is not familiar to him.

After confirming that Lucius' voice revealed real relaxation, the Elf King, who hadn't figured out the situation, chose to wait and see.

******

When the early morning fog dissipated little by little with the rising sun, the situation in the valley gradually became clearer.

The human guard, who had been dozing off for a long time, rubbed his eyes, and was suddenly speechless in surprise.

The terrible dragon corpse and the dreaded elf army disappeared overnight, and the morning wind blowing from the valley even carried a hint of warmth.

Before he had time to be surprised, the arm holding the horn was shaken vigorously by the colleagues beside him, and his terrified fingers pointed to a lone black figure on the city gate bridge a short distance away.

Shouts of panic immediately filled the city wall.

******

"Sorry, the reaction of the guards was a bit too intense." Bud shook his head helplessly, leading the visitor into his living room.

In fact, the human dignitaries in the New City didn't think his meeting place was the right choice.In particular, the King of the River Valley chose to retreat all the guards on his own will, and faced the visitor alone, the guest who could dominate the entire valley alone.

"Their worries are completely understandable." Lucius chuckled, didn't mind, and made a joke with a pun, "On the contrary, your choice surprised me even more. Maybe, as the lord of a country, you really A little more caution is needed. That doesn't make you look arrogant."

"Their fear of you is indeed understandable, but I think that once trust is established, it won't be disintegrated so easily." Bud smiled nonchalantly, looking at the wizard with sincerity, "Speaking of which, you Has your injury healed, why did you come to me alone?"

"Thank you for your concern. As you can see, I have recovered." Lucius raised his eyebrows and smiled. "In fact, that is not a small problem that is difficult to solve. The only thing that makes me feel a little pity is that, That incident probably spoiled your celebration."

"Of course it won't be a big problem." Bud shook his head, showing a little helplessness, "After all, this kind of disaster is not what you and I have the ability to predict in advance."

Generosity and peace have always been the advantages of this human king.

Lucius was silent for a while.

His visit was actually to appease the leaders of the Romanian region.Although the peace and quiet of the previous three days can show the silent agreement reached by humans, dwarves and elves, but after all, Lucius set off a dark storm that no one can ignore, and the consolidation of the light camp obviously needs some clear words. guarantee.

However, Bud approached Lucius' visit with a personal, presupposed scenario from the start.This is already a self-evident statement.

Lucius chose to start his appeasement project from here, but he was not too worried about the harvest in River Valley City.

But he really achieved his goal so easily, and he was not without emotion in his heart.

Bud showed an open-minded smile helplessly, reminding Lucius of the few times he had been with this human before.

Whether it's real or fake, a good character can always make the road ahead smoother.

At that time, he really sincerely sent out strategies and blessings for this human being.

But reality may never tolerate too optimistic expectations.

Bard's current situation is really not as high-spirited as expected.

Lucius remembered a past detail: "Speaking of which, I remember that you were already preparing for the coronation ceremony before I left Long Lake. At that time, I regretted that I missed it, but I didn't expect this A ceremony will be delayed until this time."

"This matter..." Bud was stunned for a while, and the helplessness that appeared on his face turned around in his mouth a few times, and in the end it turned into a simple word, "It's hard to say."

Human society has never been an easy topic to sort out.

As if a lot of memories had been brought back, Bud's eyes were dazed for a while before they regained focus because of Lucius's action of picking up the black tea cup.

Because of his hesitation to speak, Lucius chose not to ask any more questions, knowing the truth.

However, this kind of proper processing is not the optimal solution in all cases.

Bud's disappointment flashed across his heart, but he habitually stretched out his hands to cover it up.

His eyes fell on the wizard's calm face, and the River Valley King couldn't help sighing again: "Your appearance has changed again."

Lucius looked at Bud and hesitated for a moment.

It was a kind of disappointment, and there was also some undefended loneliness.

Bud is not stupid, and Lucius' use is actually his willingness.

This can be the perfect exchange of interests.

Sincerity, or take advantage of.

The difference is really only in the transition of thought.

The more it came to the time when his hands were full of chips, Lucius followed his heart instead, and didn't want Bud to continue to be trapped in his willingness.

When there are some things that are destined to be unresponsive, Lucius at least never has a heart of contempt.

"I remember, the last time I met you in the Woodland Kingdom, although you were a little embarrassed, you were actually more smug." Lucius said, "What makes you wear all the fatigue now? ,friend?"

"There can always be many reasons for being helpless." Bud shook his head while talking, and finally followed Lucius' hint and pressed all the emotions brewing in his heart.In front of the wizard, Bud finally chose to continue to follow, and returned to the real theme of the other party's trip with a smile, "What about you, why are you here this time?"

"The crisis of the evil dragon has been resolved, and the elf army will all withdraw today. There is no need to continue the delicate confrontation outside the city of River Valley." Lucius said seriously, "I will also return to Long Lake."

"Oh..." It is not difficult to understand the meaning behind the wizard's simple statement.But before the perfect answer, a sudden sense of loss delayed Bud's reaction.

With the strength that Lucius has shown now, he still came to seek Bard's consent to show respect.For the disadvantaged River Valley City, this is goodwill that should be accepted without hesitation.

Thinking of Lucius' dazzling outburst a few days ago, the scene once again coincided with the head-on conflict between Lucius and the Elf King that he had seen with his own eyes.

The tension formed when the two elves faced each other seemed to only add a touch of embarrassment and helplessness to Bard at that time.

But at this time, the seemingly unimportant picture in memory was brewed and fermented into a repulsive force that could no longer be broken through.

Once, looking at the figure of Lucius and the Elf King, Bud was surprised and only felt that it was the result of choice.

But now, he suddenly realized that even in the past, it wasn't just Lucius' choice that stood between reality and expectations.

This may be a long overdue farewell.
