Chapter 184: Hermaphrodite

It took Ethan a long while to come back to his senses.

"That woman... is your sister?"

"She is not my sister." Lucia wiped her tears: "She is the murderer, she is the murderer, she just took away my sister's face!"

How is this possible?

Sophia just said that there is no magic to change faces. Could it be that with the medical skills of this era, faces can already be changed?

This is even more impossible!

"I say, is it possible that the person just looks like your sister?" Ethan still didn't believe it.

"No!" Lucia shouted hoarsely: "That's my sister's face!

Did you see the little mole under her eye just now? Is it the same as mine, and my mother also has this.

They look alike, but the position of the mole can't be the same!"

Ethan was silent.

This is indeed a bit unreasonable.

Could it be that there is really magic to change faces, but Sophia just doesn't know it?

And the reason why the woman killed Lucia's family was actually to take away that face?

Although it is absurd, it is also possible.

After all, if there really is face-changing magic, and her sister is indeed stunningly beautiful.

But it doesn't make sense! .

She is not a man, how can she insult...

Uh... men!

Emile!

Ethan's mind suddenly lit up, as if he had grasped some important information.

So, he sat next to Lucia, comforted her, and asked: "I'm going to ask you something next, which will embarrass you, but it is related to identifying the murderer. Are you willing to answer?"

Lucia wiped her tears and replied without hesitation: "Ask!"

Ethan was a little embarrassed to speak, because the next question was like rubbing salt into someone else's wounds.

But after thinking about it, he said, "I remember you said before that you saw that person insulting your sister's body, right!

Then did you see that person's private parts? Did they look extremely strange?

For example... it's like a small pepper growing out of a shell, right?"

After hearing this, Lucia was shocked, opened her eyes wide, looked at Ethan with tears in her eyes, and asked in surprise, "How did you know?"

"It seems that I guessed right!"

Ethan immediately understood everything.

If I guessed right, the woman just now was Emile.

Although I don't know how she changed her height and appearance, it is absolutely impossible for a person's breath to change.

And Emile is actually a hermaphrodite.

This explains everything.

"Sir Ethan, are you still willing to help me?" Lucia asked cautiously when she saw Ethan suddenly in a daze.

This question made Ethan difficult.

It's not that I don't want to help, but I can't help.

I thought the other party might just be a big noble who did evil, and I could solve it with one arrow.

But the other party is a great swordsman, and [positioning strike] can't hurt her.

Since assassination doesn't work, the only way is a life-and-death duel.

But there must be a reason for a duel!

Although he did plan to duel with her before, he was forced by the other party to show his strength, and it was just to show his strength.

Although he said he wanted to kill the other party, he didn't actually want to fight to the death.

In addition, they have reconciled now.

If at this time, for an eagle, just find a reason to fight a life-and-death duel with the other party.

That's equivalent to a full-scale war!

I can't bet my life for an eagle.

The family won't agree to this!

Thinking of this, Ethan sighed helplessly: "I don't want to hide it from you. Your enemy is a great swordsman, and he has mastered an extremely terrifying rule.

Although I'm not afraid of her, I can't kill her."

Ethan couldn't say anything more after saying this.

He blamed himself.

He gave this woman hope, and let her fall into despair again.

At this time, Lucia had already cried so hard that her whole body was shaking.

"Ah..." Ethan felt uncomfortable and could only stroke Lucia's back to comfort her.

Lucia cried louder and louder, and finally threw herself into Ethan's arms, crying heartbreakingly...

After an unknown amount of time, the crying finally stopped slowly.

Lucia stood up from Ethan's arms, wiped the tears from her face, and showed a forced smile.

"Sir Ethan, thank you! Can you please take me back?"

Ethan sighed and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

After nodding, he picked up Lucia and the wheelchair and sent her back.

After a while, they arrived at the gate of Merlin College.

After putting down the wheelchair.

Lucia said "thank you" again, and then silently pushed the wheelchair into the college.

Ethan stood at the gate of Merlin College, looking at Lucia's lonely back, and never left for a long time.

He felt that he had lost something.

The thing called conscience.

That thing called justice.

And got something called bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

But can I blame myself for this?

There are so many pitiful people in the world, can I help them all?

I also have a family, how can I risk my life for someone I just met once.

This is unreasonable and makes no sense.

But why do I still feel sad?

Ethan smiled bitterly and shook his head, then spread his wings of light and flashed away.

…

Outside the imperial capital.

An uninhabited ruin.

A flash of lightning fell, and Ethan appeared.

After looking around and making sure that no one was around, he condensed a thunder eagle in his hand and shot it into the body of the eight-eyed steel falcon he had just obtained.

The eight-eyed steel falcon immediately stiffened and collapsed to the ground.

Ethan had seen this situation many times and was used to it, so he was not worried about any problems.

He only took off his coat and wrapped the eight-eyed steel falcon to prevent it from freezing.

Then he checked the force consumption.

This time it was 900.

It was 100 less than Volibear, so it seemed that the plane messenger should be able to be summoned.

Knowing that he would have to wait for a long time, Ethan found a stone and sat aside to wait quietly.

And Volibear came out by himself, went to collect some dead branches, and lit a fire for Ethan to keep warm.

"Master, if you want that rainbow eagle, you don't need to do anything, I can go kill that woman now!"

After lighting the fire, Volibear knelt on one knee beside Ethan and said.

"Haha!" Ethan smiled: "Can you beat her?"

"Her resonance rules are invalid for me! Just give me some time, I will definitely kill her!"

Ethan couldn't help laughing: "Haha! When did you learn to be cunning?

You used to talk to me and said what you meant, but today you are beating around the bush.

Tell me, is it because of that rainbow eagle?"

"Master is wise! I can't hide my little thoughts from you!"

Seeing that Volibear had changed his serious image in the past, Ethan teased: "Is [Expert in Sophistry] very powerful? Can it make you take the initiative to speak up?"

"I don't know if she is powerful or not. But, Master, I can't take my eyes off the rainbow eagle since I saw it. She is seducing me!"

"Haha! You are so funny!"

Ethan laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.

At this time, Ethan suddenly realized that Volibear saw that he was in a bad mood and deliberately made a fool of himself to please him.

"Thank you! I feel much better!"

"My supreme master, I am honored to make you smile!"

"Alas... What a pity! I couldn't get that rainbow eagle, otherwise it would be complete! Alas... I can only see if there are other opportunities in the future!"

...

While the two were talking.

Suddenly

"Zizi" sounded.

The eight-eyed steel falcon on the ground disappeared.

Ethan smiled slightly, and his mind sank into the talent tree...
