"Karov wrote me a letter saying that Eluria had been emotionally unstable recently and asked if I had any good ideas. When I received the letter, my heart skipped a beat, and the image of that young man immediately appeared in my mind. I was a little worried about Eluria, so I handed over the management of the convent to another nun, took a long leave, and hired a carriage to rush to the North." "Along the way, I didn't hear anything about the Bretton Clan, which made me a little relieved.
"Along the way, I didn't hear anything about the Bretton Clan, which made me a little relieved. A month later, the carriage arrived outside Karov's castle. It was only when I saw Eluria that my heart completely returned to my stomach. She looked a little thin and pale, but her body seemed to be fine. I noticed that her belly was bulging, so she should be seven or eight months pregnant. After dinner, I went to her room, and she asked the maid to leave, so only the two of us were left in the room."
Terrified, helpless, like a little kitten that had just been fished out of the water, shivering. Seeing her like that, my heart was suddenly filled with anger. I loudly asked if Karov had bullied her, but she shook her head and gestured for me to keep quiet. There was no one else in the room except for the two of us, but she insisted on searching everywhere. Not only under the bed, the wardrobe, the sofa, even the teapot and the snuff box were not spared. After that, she took my hand and mysteriously told me that someone had been spying on her for the past few months. "" Along the way, I heard nothing about what happened to the Bretton Clan, which made me a little relieved.
However, Eluria's situation is very different from my teacher's. My teacher doesn't have any children and lives with his younger brother's family. They are all ordinary people, and this is the Northern Territory, the heart of the Bretton Clan. Security is tight here. Take the corridor outside the bedroom for example, there is a guard every ten steps. Even a fly would have a hard time getting in, let alone a living person. "
"I asked Eluria if she had told Karoff about this. Although I don't like that kid, I have to admit that he treats Eluria well. For the head of the Bretton Family to be able to resist the pressure to marry a commoner girl is already an amazing thing in itself. What's more, from the beginning to the end, he has never shown any difficulties in front of Eluria. Although I have some conflicts with him, I have to admit that from the perspective of a husband, he can be called perfect."
"And in handling this matter, he was equally outstanding. He took action immediately and organized men to turn the entire castle upside down to ensure that no suspicious people sneaked in. He even increased the number of guards stationed outside the castle to ensure Eluria's safety. However, all of this seemed to have no effect. Eluria always felt that she was being watched, and as time went by, this feeling grew stronger and stronger, as if there was no place in this world that was safe."
Rob shook his head. "According to what you said earlier, it was almost impossible for anyone to successfully sneak into the castle without being discovered. Besides, Karov himself is very powerful. A master of this level is very alert and sensitive to danger. The Bretton Clan has been dominating the Northern Region for hundreds of years and has a deep foundation. It's not like they can't even control their own hinterland. It's also because they're afraid of the Scarlet Sword and the Bretton Clan Temple that they haven't made a move yet. Unless the intruder is a ninth-grade profession, it's even more difficult to explain why the Temple sent a ninth-grade expert to monitor and harass Eluria.
"Karov's analysis was the same. After the search, he didn't really believe that there were outsiders in the castle, but even so, he still deployed men and strengthened the security. At the same time, he pushed aside many things to do and stayed by Eluria's side as much as possible. But the latter's condition didn't improve. No, I should say that it got worse. Not long after he wrote me that letter, Eluria began to have auditory hallucinations."
"Auditory hallucinations?"
"Yes. About a month ago, she began to hear strange whispers from time to time. She couldn't find the speaker, and according to her, the voice was speaking in a language that she had never heard before. She didn't know why she could understand that strange language, but when I asked her what the voice said to her, she shut her mouth. During that time, she became very neurotic and often locked herself in her room alone. Sometimes, she would even talk to the mirror, crying and throwing a tantrum."
Luo Luo looked at a certain someone and asked in surprise, "Mind magic?"
"Spiritual Magic is the most mysterious of all Elements of Magic. In theory, there are indeed Spiritual Magic that can achieve such an effect, especially when Eluria is just an ordinary person. It's easy for the Spiritual Magic to succeed. But still, what's the other party's motive? What's the point of using Mind Magic to scare your mother? Besides, ordinary magicians can't enter the Bretton Clan's castle, "Rob explained.
"So, you also think that there's something wrong with Eluria's mind?"
"No, I think that the possibility is very small. From your previous description of her, she should be a very strong person, and she did indeed meet with misfortune after giving birth to you. So, I believe that there must be a reason for her abnormal behavior in the last few months of her life."
Future Supreme Magister Your Honor's conclusion was a classic case of reverse inference. But at that time, Eluria didn't suffer any substantial harm, and the Scarlet Sword had done almost everything they could. Against this' invisible 'enemy, Karov didn't have any good ideas. Everyone, including Mother Teresa, felt that Eluria was suffering from some kind of strange illness. But after Mother Teresa's arrival, this strange illness was alleviated to a certain extent. Eluria became much quieter and no longer cried hysterically. Occasionally, she could even cheer up and accompany Karov to some of the less important gatherings.
