Unable to find Firo, unable to obtain the "Blood Moon Codex", and seeing Marguerite's condition deteriorate day by day, Connor had no choice but to return to Marguerite's side with this intermediate version of Blood Witchcraft.
After hearing Connor's introduction, Marguerite did not speak. She only shifted her gaze to the dark red crystal ball in her hand, her gaze full of complex emotions.
Looking at Marguerite's complicated gaze, Connor's heart could not help but ache. He immediately solemnly promised Marguerite, "Marguerite, I will definitely find that bastard Firo and get the" Blood Moon Codex "for you!"
"Connor, I believe in you!"
Smiling at Connor, Marguerite said seriously. The two of them looked at each other and smiled knowingly. Holding hands, they snuggled up to each other and continued to admire the splendid sea of flowers in front of them.
Even though the intermediate version of Blood Witchcraft in the dark red crystal ball that Firo had given her was a slow-acting poison, and switching to this skill was equivalent to slow-acting suicide, Connor and Marguerite both understood that this was the reality and they had no choice. If they did not switch to this intermediate version of Blood Witchcraft and continued to maintain their current condition, Marguerite's condition would quickly deteriorate to an irreversible state. Marguerite still had at least five years to slowly plan to switch to this intermediate version of Blood Witchcraft.
Five years was enough for a Magus to do many things. For example, planning how to find Firo again and obtain the "Blood Moon Codex" from him to completely change Marguerite's dangerous situation!
More than ten minutes later, Marguerite seemed to have thought of something and asked Connor, "Connor, from Firo's various actions, he seems to be plotting something against you. Didn't you have a good talk with him this time?"
Connor was somewhat hesitant about Marguerite's question and did not know how to answer. Just as he was deliberating, Marguerite seemed to have seen through his hesitation. Shortly after, her expression became unhappy, but she still pretended to be generous and said, "If Connor has something that needs to be kept secret, it's fine if you don't tell me!"
Feeling the emotions in Marguerite's words, Connor shook his head helplessly. With a thought, he pulled up an invisible barrier and covered both him and Marguerite. Seeing Connor's actions, Marguerite was slightly surprised. Being familiar with Connor, she understood that Connor's actions meant that the matter was very important and must be kept absolutely secret. Her expression immediately became serious.
With the protection of the barrier, Connor had no more scruples and told Marguerite everything that Firo had told him.
After listening to Connor's narration, Marguerite was shocked by the huge amount of information. She was also speechless for a long time and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, Marguerite digested the information in Connor's words and said to Connor, "Connor, once I successfully switch to this intermediate version of Blood Witchcraft, my strength will no longer be restricted. As your mentor, I will accompany you to the Navas Forest. The two of us will go together and take care of each other!"
"The matter of the Navas Forest is not urgent. After I return, I plan to clean up the vermin in our Ferguson Family. It will take at least a month or two!" Connor waved his hand and said. When he left Flosinone, he promised Varga that when he returned, he would clean up the family and bring her back to the Ferguson Family. Now was the time to fulfill his promise!
Seeing that Connor had already made up his mind, Marguerite didn't say anything more about this matter. She turned to Connor and said, "Connor, let's not talk about the feasibility of Firo's plan. I have a feeling that Firo's goal of killing Reyes isn't as simple as avenging his father as he said!"
After hearing Marguerite's thoughts, Connor sneered and said, "Of course that's the case. Firo has already made a lot of changes to the story that he told me to make his father look less terrible."
"But I'm more willing to believe the other version, which is that his father was greedy enough. He was jealous of Reyes's success and wanted to obtain his inheritance. Therefore, he has been investigating the ancient ruins where Reyes obtained his inheritance and successfully found some information. This is also the reason why Firo appeared in Flosinone. I'm sure that although we have lost his location and can't find him, this guy must still be wandering around Flosinone, searching for the ancient ruins. It won't be long before we meet him again."
"I'm guessing that 20 years ago, Reyes didn't invite his father to explore the mysterious ruins together like Firo said. The truth is very likely that Firo's father secretly went to the ruins and was discovered by Reyes, who then killed his father!"
"As for why Firo wants to kill Reyes now, of course, it's because he wants to avenge his father. But I think it's more likely that he's the same as his father. He's greedy for the ruins and wants a share of the profits. This can be seen from his plan to find the ruins and attack Reyes in the ruins!"
After hearing Connor's thoughts, Marguerite said faintly, "Connor, you're still so calm. Since you've already made a judgment about Firo, then what do you plan to do next? Do you want to cooperate with Firo?" "I'll observe first. I'm not in a hurry. I'm not in a hurry.
"I'm not in a hurry. I plan to wait until I return from Navas Forest and see what I've gained before making a decision. Firo is a hungry wolf. There's no way I'll cooperate with him. We'll only be using each other. He'll use me to find the ruins, and I'll use him to kill Reyes. If we have a common enemy and Reyes dies, we won't have a common enemy. We'll definitely fight to the death for the ruins!" Connor said faintly. When he said this, a hint of killing intent appeared in Connor's eyes.
If Firo's information was true, then the value of the ruins that allowed Reyes to obtain the inheritance was naturally self-evident to Connor, who was of the same lineage as Reyes. With such a huge benefit, and also related to the "Abyss Secret Arts" that he cultivated, Connor couldn't think of any reason for him to share it with Firo. How could he allow someone else to sleep beside him?
Since he couldn't tolerate it, the only way left for Connor was to kill Firo. This way, he could also help Marguerite obtain the "Blood Moon Codex" and solve all the hidden dangers in her cultivation. Therefore, killing Firo was completely in line with Connor's interests. As long as there was a chance, Connor wouldn't hesitate to do so!
