"I'm just a poor woman. I finally got rid of the nightmare. Can't I let me go?" Ava stood in front of the bonfire, and the fire shone out a pure, beautiful and sad face. "I've said everything I should say!"

"Madam, after this time, unless your life is at stake, I swear that I will never disturb your peaceful life again." The witch hunter sitting upright on the bench opposite the bonfire folded his hands on his knees and stared at each other's eyes. "I learned from Yanke of the Ivy Village that Ortolan once took his father, the gambler Flandon..."

"Have you seen them act together?"

The woman clasped her fingers and pondered for a moment, "One night I woke up from my nightmare and found that Altoran and Flandon were both at home."

"What are they doing? What are they talking about?"

"I didn't hear it clearly. Later, Ortolan only explained that there were important matters to discuss. I was very surprised at the time. What's the point of talking about as a rich businessman and a gambling man?"

"How long ago was it?"

"More than a year ago..." Ava lowered her face and pursed her lips. "At that time, he had already begun to deliberately neglect me, but she had not yet hooked up with other women."

Roy patted his knee lightly, which matched Yanke's confession.

...

"There's another thing, I learned from the guard of the port, Aige, that the few women your husband had an affair were all prostitutes."

"So what?" Ava wrinkled her small nose, her tone full of disgust.

"Three prostitutes look very much like you. Do you have any special thoughts?"

"What do you want to explain? He still loves me?" A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Ava's mouth, and her voice became sharp. "So I found a few substitutes for me, but I left me aside? Don't you think this kind of speculation is ridiculous? Whether the person he is looking for is beautiful or ugly, betrayal is betrayal!"

"If he still has me in his heart, he would not neglect me, torture me, and make me feel in pain!"

"Wow--" The loud cry of the baby sounded from the bedroom door. The woman hurried over, picked up the cradle from the wooden stroller, and gently patted the child on the back.

"Be good at Yasa, don't cry, mom is here, mom is here."

Roy's eyes accidentally swept over the boy's doll with red lips and white teeth, and his pupils curled up. The boy's fair neck was hung with a gray necklace, and the pendant was a diamond-shaped stone with a small pattern carved on it.

It was blurred under the light of the bonfire and looked extremely inconspicuous.

But the witch hunter walked within one meter of the child's body, and the viper pendant on his chest began to buzz and whisper.

Chaos energy is surging.

His breathing worsened.

"Madam, this necklace looks very special." Roy suppressed his excitement and tried his best tone to be calm.

The woman hugged the baby, her delicate side face exuded a holy light, and a loving smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Fahed gave it to the child."

"No, no, this is what Ortolan left for you?"

The witch hunter looked at the mother and son with a bright look.

The woman tightened her body and her face paled for a moment, but she no longer made any arguments.

"Well, you're right, this is Ortolan's gift...it doesn't look worth much, so I put it on him."

You are very wrong, it's not worth it!?

Roy roared in his heart, his pupils shining with deep light—

Guardian pendant

Materials: Obsidian, silver, magic, bright stone, evil spirit dust, wheel-injected dust, evergreen stone…

Enchantment-

Physical protection, energy protection, evil spirit protection, disease resistance...

After each effect, the amulet will automatically draw chaotic energy from the air to supplement consumption.

...

The witch hunter has never seen such a powerful enchantment jewelry, which blesses several practical functions and is automatically charged.

According to his estimate, the necklace is worth tens of thousands of kronors.

"So this child is Ortolan's flesh and blood?"

"Before he disappeared, I was pregnant for several months. After remarrying Fahd, I gave birth to Asa. Fahd didn't mind," Ava turned her gentle gaze out of the wooden window, in the direction of the sea, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "He treated the child as his own."

Under the observation of the witch hunter, this baby was just an ordinary boy and did not have any magic power.

He failed to inherit his father's magical talent.

...

With the gentle comfort of the mother, the child stopped crying, took a finger of his mother, and looked at the witch hunter curiously with his big black eyes.

Roy was caught in a conflicted mood.

Even if the mage has strong financial resources, he will never give such a precious enchantment pendant to others easily.

"Ortolan..." The demon hunter couldn't help but sigh, his eyes locked on the pendant on the baby's neck, and wanted to see the pattern on it clearly. "It must attach great importance to this child, he loves the child very much. And if you leave a necklace, it means you still have him in your heart."

"No, you don't know anything!" Ava seemed to be stimulated by some kind of stimulation, and suddenly roared in extreme depression, glaring at the witch hunter, "I hate him! The necklace is just... just kept as a souvenir..."

"He doesn't love me and the children either! His behavior before he disappeared is unforgivable!"

"What did he do to you?"

Roy let out a lighter voice.

"I didn't say that besides the betrayal of emotions, he had even more terrible mistakes." The woman shook her head and said the last clue, "I collapsed because of his well-known cheating scandal and committed suicide. He saved me and quickly restored me to my vitality. I thought he would change."

Ava pursed her lips tightly, and her bright eyes were filled with fear.

"But that night I woke up from my sleep, I saw him standing in front of my bed, holding a fish-killing knife in his hand, looking straight at me."

"I saw that look when I was very young, in pirates who went out to sea to rob." The woman shrank her shoulders and hugged the child in her arms. "I can feel that he wanted to kill us mother and son at that time."

Ava hugged the child and sobbed, and even the beauty mole on the corner of her mouth was stained with tears.

The baby felt his mother's sorrow and started crying with her mother.

"After I begged, he left without saying a word. But I could see that he was hesitant and extremely reluctant!"

"How can a father have such a bad idea? It's even more desperate than cheating!"

"Although he spared my life and my child, I don't want to see him again!"

"He made me successful, he disappeared by himself."

The witch hunter remained silent until she vented her emotions and wiped away her tears.

I was sweet with her for four months, but I ignored her again and cheated on an outsider.

The amulet worth ten thousand gold for the child disappeared without looking back.

He just saved his suicide wife and wanted to kill her with a knife.

...

Ortolan's various actions became a word in the mind of the demon hunter - contradiction!

The witch hunter could only think this way - he took the gambling ghost and the three prostitutes who looked like their wives, and finally wanted to kill their wives with their own hands, all in order to achieve a certain goal?

But when things came to an end, he regretted it.

And to solve these puzzles-

"Mrs. Ava, I have a reluctance... Can you lend me this necklace for use?" the witch hunter begged, "I promise to return the original item tomorrow at most, or what do you ask for?"

"I only have one request!" The woman held the child and looked back at Roy. Tears flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she begged at the top of her lungs, "Don't mention that name to me again, don't bother our family again! Please!"

...

Click, the wooden door opened and closed.

The witch hunter held the necklace in his hand to his eyes, and the hazy light shone the exquisite carvings on the pendant - a star-shaped pond and three willow trees beside the pond.

A strong intuition told him that this had something to do with Ortolan's secret base!

"Mr. Linus..." Clotte, who had been waiting for a long time, said to the witch hunter, "I have found a tavern for you, right in the Big Lobster Tavern, with fine wine, food, and even a little special service, so you can satisfy you."

"Don't worry, man, you claim to be a tour guide and you must know all the attractions and terrain of the entire Indalsfell?"

"It's not me bragging," the tour guide smiled proudly, pointing to his blond hair and flowing head. "Do you remember the map of the island here?"

"Have you seen this place?" Roy showed him the necklace.

The latter stared at the pattern on the pendant, and in just ten seconds, his expression moved.

"I remember it, it was in the woods near the no-man's land in the north! I had fished in this pond a few years ago!"

"lead the way!"
