Chapter 86: The Origin of the Fiancée

After hearing these twists and turns of the past, Old Xie suddenly realized. He thought, no wonder the Old Mage was so indulgent to Rui Li. It turned out there really was an affair! Obviously, the old guy felt guilty in his heart, so he couldn’t face this Ice Magic Saint.

But then Old Xie found it strange again. He couldn’t help but ask curiously, “According to what you said, the old guy and Rui Li should both be despised by the people of both countries, right? Then why does it seem now that they are both very respected? The old guy even dared to kill a Duke in a fit of anger. Isn’t that too unimaginable?”

“That’s because 30 years ago, the Burning Legion invaded. Your Family shined brilliantly during the war, winning the praise and admiration of all living beings on the Continent again. Otherwise, Rafat would still be unable to see the light now!” Lan Fake said with a smile.

“Oh?” Old Xie immediately asked curiously, “Tell me, what did they do when the Burning Legion invaded?” Saying that, Old Xie poured another full cup for Lan Fake.

“En!” Lan Fake took a satisfied sip, savored it a little, and then continued, “More than 30 years ago, the million-strong army of the Burning Legion, led by the Legend Rank Expert, the Hellfire Lord Spike, suddenly appeared at the border between the Griffin Kingdom and the Kingdom of Orcs through a Space Door. They caught the Human Race and the Orcs off guard. Afterward, the nearby human kingdoms and the Kingdom of Orcs fought in a hurry. On one side was a prepared army of a million, on the other was a temporarily assembled group of farmers. This battle couldn’t be fought at all! So at the Iron Gorge Fortress, the Allied Forces of humans and beasts were defeated by the Hellfire Lord Spike.”

“At the last moment, seeing the Fortress was in danger and the main force was lost, at this critical moment, the Legion Commander of the Griffin Kingdom’s Mage Legion, Rafat’s father, my good friend Carl, stepped forward. As a Saint Domain Expert, he challenged the Legend Rank Expert, the Hellfire Lord Spike.” Lan Fake then said with extreme sadness, “Carl certainly knew he was no match for Spike, so he just tried to delay time as much as possible. In the end, he won precious three hours for the human and beast Allied Forces. During this time, the elite main forces of the two races were able to evacuate safely and rebuild the Defense Line at the Imperial Capital of the Griffin Kingdom!”

“As for Carl, at the last moment of the battle, knowing he was no match for Spike, he resolutely chose to self-destruct. At the cost of sacrificing his Soul and life, he injured the Hellfire Lord Spike!” When Lan Fake said this, he couldn’t help but have tears in his eyes. But he hid it well and hurriedly wiped his eyes while drinking.

Unfortunately, these didn’t escape Old Xie’s eyes. He couldn’t help but think in his heart, I didn’t expect this cunning blue-skinned toad to be such an emotional guy.

Afterward, Old Xie suddenly noticed a problem, so he asked, “Even if Carl died in battle, that was his glory. How did this get related to the old guy and Rui Li? Is it just because of this that people stopped holding them accountable?”

“Of course not!” Lan Fake then continued, “Although Rafat was a bastard and a pervert, I have to say he respected his father Carl very much. However, because Rafat’s reputation was so bad at the time, Carl didn’t dare take him to the battlefield. But when he heard that Carl died in battle, he didn’t choose to be a coward, but bravely stood out!”

“What did he do?” Old Xie immediately asked curiously.

“Hehe!” Lan Fake drank a cup of wine heavily, then laughed, “The Hellfire Lord Spike was injured by Carl’s self-destruction and temporarily stayed behind to recover, leaving the front-line battles to his subordinates. However, the human and beast Allied Forces, relying on the solid City Wall of the Griffin Royal Capital, and the high morale inspired by Carl, finally withstood the crazy attack of the Burning Legion. The battle situation fell into a stalemate. In order to wipe out the human and beast Allied Forces before the reinforcements of the Elves and Dwarves arrived, Spike had to set off again to supervise the battle at the Frontline in person. But!”

“But what?” Old Xie asked urgently.

“Hehe, but only Spike’s head arrived at the Royal Capital, and it was carried in by Rafat!” Lan Fake couldn’t help but laugh out loud when he said this.

“The old guy could kill a Legend Rank Expert?” Old Xie was immediately shocked.

“Haha!” Lan Fake laughed again after hearing that, then laughed and cursed, “Of course he couldn’t do it himself, but he could find helpers!”

“Right!” Lan Fake nodded and said, “To be precise, killing Spike required an elite squad. First, they had to avoid the massive Demon Army and accurately find Spike’s position! So, the first person Rafat looked for was the Feather Race among the Orcs.”

“Feather Race?” Old Xie then recalled that this race was a large branch of the Orcs, famous for being good at flying and Wind Element Spells. Their archery was also extremely commendable.

“Yes!” Lan Fake nodded and said, “At that time, the Feather Race Clan Head had a good relationship with Carl and Rafat, father and son. After hearing Rafat’s plan, he agreed very readily and even wanted to participate personally!”

“I see!” Old Xie nodded, then said, “Who else?”

“The other person is a bit puzzling!” Lan Fake suddenly frowned and said, “It was the Legend Rank Prophet Natasha of the Beast Race. I don’t remember her having any relationship with Carl or Rafat? But she seemed very intent on avenging Carl. Anyway, she went along very resolutely!”

Hearing his mother’s name, Old Xie’s heart also trembled. He understood in his heart that obviously, Lan Fake didn’t know that Natasha was Carl’s daughter, otherwise he wouldn’t be puzzled.

“Then is the other person you?” Old Xie suddenly realized and asked.

“Hehe, of course, I was the last one!” Lan Fake laughed, “At that time, Rafat, who had never been on good terms with me, ran over personally and knelt directly in front of me. Whether for Carl’s sake or this kid’s sincerity, I couldn’t refuse!”

“Just the four of you killed the Hellfire Lord Spike?” Old Xie asked with some surprise.

“Actually, eight people went. The Feather Race Clan Head couple, three elites, and the three of us. The Feather Race people were mainly responsible for carrying us to fly in front of Spike. The ones who really fought Spike were actually only two, Natasha and Rafat. The Feather Race people and I were responsible for restraining Spike’s Guards.” Lan Fake suddenly said with emotion, “I didn’t expect at the time that Natasha and Rafat would be so powerful. You know, they were only Saint Level Experts at the time. Although Spike was injured, he wasn’t someone two ordinary Saint Level Experts could handle.”

“But Natasha and Rafat completely overturned this common sense. It was also the first time I saw them officially make a move. The Legend Rank Prophet Natasha was the most abnormal. She actually possessed three talents: Lightning Element, Natural Element, and Orc Shaman. These three originally unrelated skills could cooperate with each other in her hands, multiplying their power. She alone took on about 70% of Spike’s power. Rafat was not to be outdone either. This kid brought a large pile of various Combat Puppets and simply drowned Spike in an ocean of Puppets.” Lan Fake suddenly said strangely, “I don’t know why, but I always felt that these two had a very terrible tacit understanding, as if they were twin siblings. Their cooperation was simply flawless. Outsiders couldn’t get a hand in. After just an hour of fierce fighting, Spike had his head chopped off by Natasha!”

“One hour?” Old Xie calculated and said, “For killing a Legend Rank Expert, the time is not long. But the question is, wouldn’t Spike’s Guards try to save him?”

“Of course they tried!” Lan Fake laughed, “Spike had four Saint Level Guard leaders beside him, as well as a large number of expert Guards. It’s just that they were all blocked by the Feather Race people and me! Sigh!”

Speaking of this, Lan Fake suddenly sighed and said, “Although the Feather Race Clan Head couple were also Saint Level Experts, they were outnumbered. In desperation, they used the secret method of perishing together of the Feather Race, greatly increasing their own strength, and finally persisted until safe evacuation. But after returning to the Imperial Capital, they both passed away!”

“So that’s how it is!” Old Xie nodded and said.

Lan Fake suddenly said, “I’m telling you, kid, you have to treat your wife well in the future. If you dare to bully her! Natasha, Rafat, and I won’t let you off!”

Old Xie was stunned by his words and couldn’t help but ask strangely, “Out of nowhere, how did this get related to my fiancée again?”

“Before the Feather Race couple passed away, they entrusted Natasha to take care of their son and Rafat to take care of their daughter. In the end, under the plea of the Royal Family and Rafat’s arrangement, this Feather Race Princess married the current Emperor, becoming the first alien Queen in the history of the Griffin Kingdom.” Lan Fake then said solemnly, “She is the biological mother of your fiancée. You tell me, shouldn’t we care about your fiancée?”

“Oh, so that’s how it is!” Old Xie couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “I really don’t know what you guys were thinking. Why did you marry her to a fool like me back then?”
