Anger was rising in Awu's heart.

"You'll know in a moment. Let's continue with the topic we were talking about."

The man drummed his fingers on the table.

"Kate, a Silver-rank assassin eighteen years ago, maybe he was a rare genius among the Little Cats. Unfortunately, he met you in the end."

"..."

Awu said nothing and forced herself to calm down. She wanted to see what nonsense this disgusting guy in front of her was going to say.

"The Assassin's Guild accepted a bounty mission to assassinate the current head of the Roald family. Many people were sent, including your adoptive father Kate. In fact, with the lineup sent by the Assassin's Guild at that time, it was impossible to kill that person. But unfortunately, there were actually quite a few people in the Ruby Chamber of Commerce who were dissatisfied with him. So due to a series of coincidences, the Roald family's defense became particularly empty, and even a silver-level assassin could easily fall into it."

"And the final result was that the then head of the Roald family and his wife were killed, the Roald family mansion was burned down, and their two newborn children were also burned to death."

The man paused here, until Awu gave him a questioning look, then he continued with a smile.

"Of course, this is only the one-sided statement of Bigelow, the later president of the Ruby Chamber of Commerce. The actual situation is that the two baby girls, that is, the twins, did not die. They all survived."

Chapter 281 Another Possibility (Part 2)

"what do you want to say in the end?"

Awu suddenly felt a surge of fear from the bottom of his heart.

She had an urge to plug her ears.

"Lina Roald, the elder sister, was a lucky person. She was taken away by a maid who had received favors from Mrs. Roald. The maid died of severe burns, but Lina Roald was picked up by an old wizard who passed by."

The man noticed the fear in Awu's eyes, and she smiled even more happily.

"As an old wizard, he would not have adopted Lina Roald. At most, he would have sent her to a nearby orphanage or found a family to adopt her. But Lina Roald's natural super magical affinity when she was still a baby made the old wizard love her talent, so he finally adopted her."

"Do you know who this old wizard is? He is Oliver Jeria, the dean of the Wizard Branch of the Royal Academy of the Patra Empire. He once taught two legendary wizards. He is also the most prestigious wizard in the world today."

"And Lina Roald, who was adopted by Oliver, also showed unparalleled magical talent at a very young age. She was too smooth on the path of a professional, so smooth that it seemed as if everyone was making way for her. Now she is the same age as you, guess what her strength is?"

"..."

Awu said nothing, and the bad premonition in her heart grew stronger.

"Gemstone tier, and a real gemstone tier that has the potential to become a legend."

Awu didn't know what the real gem level was, but she knew very well what the promising legend was.

Most of the adventurers who were called promising legends in history really had the hope of being promoted to legends. Even if they did not achieve legends in the end, they were basically the strongest among the group below legends.

"Look at you again, you are still at the Red Iron Stage, and you haven't even touched the edge of the Silver Stage."

Awu did not feel embarrassed by the man's ridicule because she was very self-aware.

That's the nature of her talent, there's no comparison with genius like that.

“Why are you comparing me to her?”

"Because you are the younger sister of the twins."

The man said this.

Although she had a premonition, when Awu heard the man's words, she still felt dizzy.

"Do not believe?"

The man's mouth curled up.

"It's normal. After all, if it were me, I wouldn't believe it if a strange guy whispered this in my ear. But it's the truth."

"Lindy Roald, this is the name your father gave you. The meaning of this name is peace and safety. Because you were always sick at that time, your father gave you this name. The worried expression on his face when he told me this is hard for me to forget~"

"Your sister is just the opposite of you. She is very healthy. The name Lina also means four-leaf clover, which is the lucky grass in legend. I have to say that your names really fit your destiny."

"You were taken away by the assassin as a talisman, but you eventually influenced the assassin named Kate. That guy actually raised you as his daughter. Hahahahahaha!!!~~~ How could there be such a stupid guy!"

"As for what happened to you later, I think I don't need to tell you."

The man held his chin with one hand, resting his chin on his hand and staring at Awu, whose face was becoming increasingly paler, with a happy expression.

"you're lying..."

Awu said these words so weakly that even his voice was very small.

"You believe it, don't you?"

The man's words were like a heavy hammer, shattering the appearance that Awu was barely maintaining.

"I...."

I do not believe...

These three simple words could be said in less than a second, but now Awu was unable to make such a sound.

Those three simple words were stuck in her mouth and couldn't be uttered.

Does she really not believe it?

The little flaws in his past life, the fact that he was adopted by Kate, and Kate's inexplicable guilt towards himself.

Everything you have points to one fact.

A fact she was unwilling to admit.

"Where's Kate?"

Awu glared at the man fiercely.

"He should be dead. After all, he defected from the Assassin's Guild, and now the assassins have found him."

The man spoke slowly.

"you?!!"

Awu raised his fist angrily, but found that it was impossible to beat the opponent with his current strength.

She was being suppressed by the man's aura.

"Although I am a piece of trash that can be killed in one move, I am at least a weakling of the Gold and Red Iron ranks."

When the man said that he was killed instantly, the madness in his eyes became more and more exaggerated.

At that time, the reason why he was able to survive was not because he was strong, but because he was too weak, so weak that the opponent didn't even bother to finish him off, so he was able to survive.

After experiencing such humiliation, he no longer cared about anything and only wanted to take revenge on the culprit who caused all this, Lina Roald, who had tried to kill them all as soon as she took office.

"You want to use me against Lina Roald?"

This is the only thing Awu could think of.

"Do you think she would care about a relative she's never met?"

"She will care. After all, she just took back the Ruby Chamber of Commerce. She has to care, even if it's just for her face."

The man looked at Awu as if he was a dead person.

"Especially when most people know she has such a sister."

"..."

Although Awu is not a so-called smart person, she is not stupid. She can completely see through a man's thoughts, especially when the other party does not hide it at all.

"Let Kate leave alive, and I'll listen to you."

Awu said expressionlessly.

"Hehe~ You can only listen to me."

The man smiled.

"You will get a dead body. You can't watch over me constantly."

Awu said to the man coldly.

"Boom boom boom!"

A knock on the door interrupted Awu's negotiation with the man.

"Come in."

As the man spoke, the door opened and a man in black walked in carrying a bloody bag.

"What you want."

The man in black threw the bundle to the ground and spoke in a flat voice.

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

The man attacked the moment he opened his mouth. The black-clothed man's head fell directly from his neck. The gushing blood splashed all over the ceiling and even fell on the dark man, but he didn't care.

"Want to open it and take a look?"

The man stretched out his foot and kicked the bloody package.

"Forget it, I'll do it."

As the man spoke, he picked up the package and opened it layer by layer. What was finally revealed was the head of Awu's adoptive father Kate.

"I am going to kill you!!!"

Awu's eyes turned red instantly and he rushed straight towards the man.

Then he was knocked unconscious by a punch from the other party.

"The next good show still requires your presence, so please be quiet for a moment, Lindy."

A playful smile appeared on the man's face. He took out a strange scroll, opened it and pressed it on Awu's body.

Chapter 282 Another Possibility (End)

When Awu woke up again, she found that she could no longer control her body.

When the man appeared in front of Awu, Awu wanted to tear him to pieces with her teeth, but now she stood obediently in front of him, not moving at all.

"I was betrayed."

When the man talked about this, it was as if he was not betrayed, but that he had won.

He is laughing.

"In fact, I already knew he was a traitor, but I still sent him out."

"Because only he can accomplish my plan."

"Only an ignorant traitor could have left Lina Roald in no doubt about my purpose."

"After all, she has already revealed her flaws in order to save you."

Awu had no control over her body at all. She could only watch the man talking to her about his plan as if he were talking to himself.

"Let's go, the next part is the most exciting moment of this scene."

The man waved his hand and Awu followed him obediently.

Afterwards, Awu was locked in a hidden secret room.

Two days of not eating or drinking made Awu's body extremely weak.

On the third day, Awu was like a prisoner trapped in a small dark room, longing for death.

Now that his body is out of control and he can only watch it die little by little, Awu feels that life is worse than death. Especially Kate's death makes Awu feel extremely desperate about this world.

"Boom!!!"

There were explosions outside, but Wu didn't care.

The stone door suddenly opened and the man ran in in a panic.

He looked badly injured and even lost an arm.

But seeing the man like this, Awu just wanted to laugh.

"You'd better stop."

The man said to the person outside the door.

"Da da da..."
