If he couldn't give her a reasonable explanation and give her a satisfactory answer, there was no doubt that Marguerite's Blood Witchcraft and Ice Blade Storm would come crashing down on him, the man who had cheated her feelings in her eyes!
After greeting Marguerite, Marguerite once again looked coldly at Connor. Feeling Marguerite's anger, Connor helplessly said in a low voice, "Marguerite, you should know very well what will happen to the two of us once our relationship is made public."
Hearing Connor's words, Marguerite looked deeply at Connor, and then a mocking smile appeared on her beautiful face. She then pretended to be indifferent and said to Connor, "So, Connor Ferguson, this is the reason why you told your father that Varga is your future wife?"
Although Connor didn't say it explicitly, Marguerite was very clear about what he was trying to say. She was a priest of the Church of the Storm, and Connor's public identity was Earl Ferguson of the Kaman Empire. If her relationship with Connor was made known to the Church of the Storm, the Church of the Storm, who was very sensitive to the collusion between clergy and the Empire's officials, would definitely restrain her and investigate her relationship with Connor Ferguson!
When that happened, Marguerite practiced Blood Witchcraft, and the fact that Connor was a Dark Magus would definitely not be hidden from the Church of the Storm, Blake. In the end, not only would Marguerite die, but Connor would also have to face the relentless pursuit of the Church of the Storm. Even the Ferguson family would be in big trouble!
In fact, even if Connor didn't say it, Marguerite had already understood this. In fact, when she first got together with Connor, Marguerite had already realized that before she was strong enough to make the Church of the Storm fear her, her relationship with Connor could only be hidden in the dark. Therefore, Marguerite didn't mind that Connor couldn't give her a proper status. There was only one reason why Marguerite had lost her composure. That was because Connor had promised Varga to be his future wife in front of Old Ferguson's tombstone. However, Connor couldn't fulfill the same promise to her!
In the face of Marguerite's ridicule, even though Connor had a lot of explanations to say, when he saw Marguerite's eyes, all these explanations were stuck in his throat, making him unable to say a word. After a moment of silence, Connor met Marguerite's gaze and said in a deep voice, "Sorry!"
Hearing Connor's apology, Marguerite smiled sadly and turned to leave. However, Connor naturally wouldn't let Marguerite leave. He directly hugged Marguerite from behind.
Connor was very clear that if he really let Marguerite leave, then according to Marguerite's personality, he and Marguerite could only be strangers from now on. It was impossible. Connor wasn't willing to accept this, so he had to be thick-skinned.
"Let go of me!"
Caught off guard, Marguerite, who was in Connor's embrace, tried several times but failed to break free from Connor's embrace. She said coldly:
"Marguerite, I will compensate you!" Connor buried his head in Marguerite's fiery red hair, took a deep breath, and then whispered in Marguerite's ear:
Marguerite obviously wasn't interested in Connor's persuasion. A cold light appeared in her eyes, and she warned Connor even more coldly: "Connor Ferguson, I'm warning you. Let go of me!"
"Marguerite, even if you kill me today, I won't let you go!"
Although Marguerite's warning was obvious, Connor wasn't afraid at all. He even hugged Marguerite tighter. Hearing Connor's words, Marguerite, who had her back to Connor, had a complicated expression in her beautiful eyes. However, in the next second, she abruptly turned around in Connor's embrace, and a dark purple dagger with cold light appeared in her hand. Marguerite didn't encounter any resistance. The dark purple dagger swayed in front of Connor's throat, and then pierced into his shoulder.
In an instant, dark red blood flowed out from the wound on Connor's shoulder, and the pain rushed to Connor's nerve center. Although the wound was very painful, Connor didn't let go of Marguerite's hand.
Looking at Connor who was enduring the pain in front of her, Marguerite's heart softened. After all, she was just angry, and didn't really want to leave Connor. Therefore, she took out a bottle of hemostatic medicine from her space ring, and applied it evenly on the wound on Connor's shoulder. After that, she wrapped a bandage around the wound. After that, she sighed faintly, and then pretended to be fierce to Connor: "Connor Ferguson, you have to think about how to make it up to me!"
Hearing Marguerite's words. Connor was delighted. He knew that Marguerite had tacitly agreed to this fact. He quickly grabbed Marguerite's jade-like hand, and solemnly promised: "Marguerite, I swear to the Storm Goddess that I will treat you well, and will not let you down!"
Seeing a vicious and merciless Dark Magus like Connor swearing to the Storm Goddess that he believed in, Marguerite felt that it was hilarious. She couldn't help but glare at him, and then said softly: "I still have things to do in Flosinone. I'll look for you after a while!"
"Then how can I contact you?"
Connor immediately asked Marguerite. It wasn't easy to meet Marguerite again in Flosinone, and he didn't want to miss Marguerite again.
In response to Connor's question, Marguerite took out something that looked like an emerald bracelet from her space ring. She handed it to Connor, and then explained:
"This thing is called a jade bracelet. It's a magic artifact that was first researched by the Religion of the Earth's Alchemist, Mbabu. I pulled a lot of strings, and was only able to get two of them. As long as the distance between two people with jade bracelets is not more than ten kilometers, they can communicate at any time. I also have one of these things, and it's already matched with the jade bracelet on Connor's hand. As long as you activate it, you can contact me within ten kilometers!"
At this point, Marguerite extended her hand, and showed Connor the same emerald bracelet that she handed to Connor.
After receiving the emerald bracelet from Marguerite, and hearing about the use of this jade bracelet, Connor's occupational disease as an Alchemist flared up. He squinted his eyes and carefully examined the jade bracelet.
