After hearing the doubts of her immediate superior, Huafalin thought for a few moments and shook her head slightly.

She doesn't comment too much.

After all, Maria often shows a rather strange duality.

Sometimes they are completely merciless and aim to kill, and sometimes they are extremely tolerant of others.

In addition, Aifanil has the most special relationship with Maria that she has ever met in such a long time, so Huafarin doesn't know what to say.

I can only say that the other party is indeed courageous.

But such things do make Warfarin more attractive.

She looked at Maria curiously, her face full of amusement.

She was a little curious about how Maria planned to deal with her rebellious child.

The answer is...don't.

"That's not up to you."

Maria spoke softly, her unique strength clearly visible!

"Ok?"

Alphanil frowned.

"you……"

He just opened his mouth, but suddenly saw Maria's eyes slightly red...

A scarlet...

Although it was only a moment, Aifanil still felt a chill in his heart.

Those were the eyes of... an evil spirit that had walked out of a battleground that had been tempered by countless trials and tribulations.

Pure, without any emotion!

By the time he came to his senses again, he was already in another place completely!

"here……"

Elfaniel looked at the ground.

Here is a meadow covered with tiny white flowers.

The ground is not very undulating, but the space is very vast, and various weapons surround this area.

A breeze blew, and the little flowers swayed slightly.

"here……"

Aifanil was stunned. This unprecedented scene made him a little dazed.

Behind him, a group of Rhodes Island operators were also amazed by the scenery and seemed a little dazed.

It was also at this time...

clatter……

The sound of footsteps attracted the attention of everyone present.

Maria took a step forward, and the huge full moon rested on her back in mid-air.

The pale light outlined the corners of her clothes, creating a delicate silver-white outline for her.

The black tricorn hat lifted slightly, revealing her delicate profile, which was completely unlike anything in the human world...

Eyes calm...

"you……"

It was the first time that Aifanil encountered such an environment that appeared without any warning, and he was completely stunned.

Originium skills?

No... Although he was young, he was at least a master of Originium skills. He was sure that Maria had not shown any signs of mobilizing her Originium skills just now.

Then... is it another type of spell?

But he didn't see Maria make any movement either.

It seemed like she just said one sentence, and before she finished speaking, everyone was pulled here?

Is it sound that acts as the medium for casting spells?

But as banshees, there should be no one in the entire Terra who is better than them in this technology, but he still didn't notice anything unusual in this regard.

Maria...how did she do it?!

Could it be... an illusion?

"This is not a hallucination."

Just when Aifanil thought he should have come up with an answer, Maria anticipated his thoughts and broke his train of thought with her calm words.

However, Maria did not think it was a big deal. Instead, she slowly recounted the past to the person who might be the only one in the world besides herself who still had Cainhurst blood.

"Cainhurst... It was originally just the name of a group, but later on, it became the surname of all of us. And as time went by, this surname became the unified name of our race."

"And within it, there is a very ancient, almost extinct ritual..."

"After becoming an adult, I fought a battle with my parents..."

Maria spoke softly and slowly drew out the long sword from her waist.

As she took action, everyone present couldn't help but feel nervous.

Although most of them had never seen Maria in real combat, but... a person's name, a tree's shadow, the legend of Maria made them full of awe for this mythical figure.

Especially after seeing the other party actually pick up their weapons, everyone felt an indescribable sense of suffocation.

And Aifanil pursed his lips.

He crouched slightly, ready to fight.

But Maria seemed very calm about this.

"In the final analysis, our very existence was meant to welcome something... This is a pathologically fanatical belief... In the records I've read, it even required descendants to do everything in their power to kill their parents... Only in this way could they prove their bloodline was purer..."

"..."

Elfaniel said nothing.

He didn't think Maria said this at this time in order to tell him the history of Cainhurst. Maria must have her own ideas for doing this.

And judging from the situation at the scene, it is obvious.

Maria plans to continue this tradition.

"You want me to fight you?"

Elphanil grinned.

He didn't know how he felt at the moment. He could only feel that as Maria spoke little by little, his blood began to boil and become restless.

Aifanil never thought that his blood would also have its own consciousness.

They are cheering for this.

"No... This ritual is meaningless, even foolish and blind."

Maria shook her head slightly, expressing her disapproval.

Ultimately, Cainhurst's very existence was to serve as a vessel for the higher-ups...

That’s why there are all kinds of rules and abilities that are difficult for ordinary people to understand.

But these rules eventually faded over time.

On the one hand, it’s because the population of Cainhurst is dwindling, almost to extinction.

On the other hand...it was also because Maria surpassed everything that her predecessors had thought of.

As a vessel, she ate those above her!

"then you……"

Aifanil was a little confused.

Since Maria didn't plan to continue the ceremony, why did Maria bring up this matter?

And you brought me and others to this place?

"Because you said you didn't want to bear the Cainhurst name."

Maria's voice was calm.

But Aifanil was a little puzzled.

"because I?"

Maria dragged me here just because I said this?

How could he not see the connection?

In response to Aifaniel's doubts, Maria only had one sentence to say.

"I won't force you to accept it. The Cainhurst family name should have completely disappeared with the passage of time, but... whether I want to admit it or not, it is still a mark engraved on me."

"I would be happy if you would get rid of that last name."

"But, before all this, you must prove to me..."

Maria whispered.

As she spoke, everyone could feel the air around them becoming heavier.

The originally gentle and cool breeze began to swirl, and the petals of the surrounding small flowers began to sway in the wind.

Under the moonlight, Maria's profile gradually became clear.

The gray eyes gradually became firm.

Just standing there, she makes people feel a powerful force!

A certain ancient melody was carried by the wind to everyone's ears, and Maria's eyes became sharper.

It's just like……

A cold light tearing through the air!

"Prove to me that you have taken control and are free from the curse of Cainhurst!"

The momentum gradually rose to its peak!

……

Maria actually doesn't care whether her descendants will have the same surname as her...

In fact, even she has complicated feelings about her surname.

On the one hand, it was the cause of all the disasters in her long life before coming to Terra.

On the other hand, she grew up under the protection of Cainhurst after all.

Today, this surname is more than just a surname or a race.

In a sense, it has become Mary's emblem.

Anyone who wears the badge is considered one of hers.

Maria would naturally be happy that her children could break away from her and grow up independently.

But before that...

"You must prove to me that the curse that flows in this family name and blood will not affect you...that you already have the strength to face your own life!"

Maria's voice was very soft, and she didn't even have much strength.

But it was these words that made everyone tremble as if they were facing a great enemy.

Everyone can feel it.

Maria...is serious!

If Alphaniel wants to reject the name Cainhurst, he has to convince Maria!
