Vol 3 Chapter 18: , In the middle of the night...

In the dark room, apart from the light of a candle in this area, there are only scarlet eyes gleaming in the endless darkness all around.
These eyes kept blinking, each pair stared at the girl's fair skin and bare neck. Some "people" have even begun to let out a low growl in their throats. If it weren't for the "rules" laid down by "that big man", I'm afraid this girl would be eaten up immediately.
Marlene silently knelt before the throne, her eyes peaceful.
She is not afraid of everything around her. In other words, she looked forward to this look even more.
However, if she really wants her to choose, she still hopes to be able to choose to "die" in the hands of this king and give her the greatest and happiest glory.
On the throne, there is a "person"...
This person seemed to be wrapped in a cloak, but the dark environment could not show his image.
In the darkness, it seemed that even the breathing had disappeared. All the voices turned into silence at this moment...
"Well...you better go. Accept that kid's invitation and have a good time."
At this moment, a soft voice suddenly came from the throne. Gradually, a beautiful woman walked out from the "king" and looked at Marlene tenderly below.
"That kid really likes you. If that's the case, he is a very worthy kid, isn't he?"
Although this woman has a gentle face, the bright red that overflows from her eyes is self-evident.
However, her face was full of happiness, and she did not feel any inconvenience for her change. As "his" wife, no matter what she becomes, as long as she can continue to be by "his", then everything will be fine.
In the darkness... the "king" still closed his eyes.
Marlene raised her head slightly and saw the dark golden long sword placed beside the throne.
This sword... was originally completely golden. But now, the rune on it has become the darkest black, and the golden light on the sword is now dimmed.
but……
I don't know if it is an illusion, I always feel that the sharpness of this sword...seems to be even more terrifying.
After looking up, Marlene lowered her head immediately. She clutched her chest, and after a little hesitation, she began to say again—
"My king, can I ask you to show mercy and give me...this supreme honor?"
The scarlet pupils all around were shining, seeming to be excited.
However, the "king" still didn't speak, and he didn't even open his eyes to take a look at the girl below. Seeing this, the beautiful and gentle woman shook her head and said--
"It's not time yet, Marlene."
"We need people who communicate with people outside. Once you bear this curse, you will never see the sun again. This is a very scary thing in many cases."
At this moment, Marlene stood up suddenly, she took a step, her face was full of desire and excitement
"I'm not afraid that I like the dark. It doesn't matter if I don't see the sun. I ask for this curse, this kind of immortality, you can stay young and beautiful forever like your sister. ?"
"Marlene, you retreated too much"
Seeing Malin's arrogance, the gentleness on that beautiful woman's face immediately became serious. She yelled, and surprised the little girl who didn't know anything at all. Then she knelt down angrily and lowered her head.
In a room without light, the weak candle is like a lamb thrown into the wolves, seeming to be swallowed at any time. The light was too small to illuminate Marlene's face, let alone illuminate the surroundings.
After the beautiful woman yelled, she was silent for a while. After seeing this silence, she breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone returned to gentle...
"You are still too young, this year, you are only seventeen years old. You still have too many things to see, and a lot of happiness that you have not enjoyed. Maybe one day in the future, you will lose the light. But that day is definitely not now, It’s not when you were so young. When the time comes, my husband and I will help you. But, that’s definitely not now..."
Marlene lowered her head and promised in a low voice. But where the beautiful woman could not see, she gritted her teeth secretly and hummed.
(Troublesome woman...how did my brother choose such a woman? She is too troublesome...so troublesome that she doesn't deserve to be a "Queen".)
However, that beautiful woman did not know what this sister was thinking. Seeing that she had agreed, she was relieved when her thoughts were slightly simple. after that……
"By the way, you just said that the assassin named Zelens Scarlet invited you to the Flower Festival the day after tomorrow?"
Marlene paused and said, "Yes, but I don't want to go with him very much. This man is very troublesome, he thinks I like him, he comes to pester me almost every day. Even if I avoid seeing him, he will come. ."
In response, the beautiful woman shook her head, her red pupils exuded a warm luster, and said, "That's it...just like what I said, go on a date with him. He is a master, if you can If you absorb it, it will help us. In addition, I can see that he is sincere to you. Although you have avoided him many times, he is not discouraged at all when he did not see you, and he did not force it. Come in. Such an obsession has lasted for nearly a year, and it can be said that it is very good."
"But he is a perverted stalker"
"Pervert, won't you be so caring for you for a year in a row, won't you?"
"............ But, I don't like him."
Marlene gritted her teeth, raised her head slightly, and focused on the "person" sitting on the throne.
"He is an incomparably splattered thing. Apart from his strength, he has nothing. There is no status, no money, no manners. And... the person is very dirty, and I think he is everywhere. There is really enough rubbish."
The beautiful woman was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Is that right? I've seen that child. He should look good?"
From the perspective of ordinary people, it is indeed okay. but……
Marlene raised her head again, looking forward to her brother. Although he can't see his face now, she can still imagine his handsome and beautiful appearance before...
Compared with my brother, that assassin can only be described as wretched.
"I... still don't like him much."
"Ah... I don't like it, it's okay. You go try it and see what he will do to you, you are living among us now, it is'abnormal'. But you need a'normal' life. You need to be in the sun Go on a date, just have fun, go to the coffee shop with friends. So, go on a date with him."
"But... he kidnapped a student last time, such a terrorist..."
Marlene felt that she couldn't tell the woman a little, so she couldn't help but throw out this truth.
but……
"So, do you really believe that child is this kind of person?"
The beautiful woman smiled slightly and said--
"Is there no misunderstanding in this? You should also know that the kid is a little simple and a little stupid. Although there is a misunderstanding now, this misunderstanding will be resolved soon, won't you?"
After talking for a long time, Marlene finally couldn't talk about the woman. Although she has been talking to herself and giving instructions to herself since just now. But the little girl knew that since the "king" next to him did not respond, it meant that her words also represented his meaning.
Finally, Marlen nodded and raised the candle in her hand.
After saluting the throne in front of her again, she turned around and walked slowly towards the door.
When the light of the candle left, the red eyes in the darkness converged again. After a short whispered discussion, the sound of music once again sounded in this ballroom...
From beginning to end, the "king" never said a word or said a word.
He just sat like this, wrapped in a cloak, leaning on the dark golden sharp sword, sitting on the throne, closed his eyes, and raised his mind...
In the broad wind and sand, it was already deep.
But in the depths of the Goodsey mansion, how long will the noisy sound continue?
-
If you want to be a friend's girlfriend, first make yourself more like a friend than a friend.
Although the idiot didn't know exactly how that Miss Goodsay felt towards Zelens, based on the fact that the other party was a noble lady, some preliminary preparations were still needed.
Tomorrow is the Flower Festival, and the streets are already decorated like a sea of ​​flowers. Colorful flowers are blooming on the windowsill of every household, and the rectangular flower pots in the middle of the street are even more pleasant. Under such circumstances, the idiot walked on the way to Xingli's shop.
As always, the Rooney family’s store business is still so good. The idiot pulled the buns to prevent her from walking away in the crowd or "unknowingly" walking towards the chili barbecue shop. Taking advantage of the gap between a group of people leaving the shop, they squeezed in.
After years of operation, the Rooney family's shop is no longer a small roadside stall or a tent. Xingli rented a shop and started a clothing business in the spring.
Her women's clothing store is obviously popular with young women. Many girls will come in eagerly to come in, some look at Xingli by the clothes, while some look at Xingli directly, and then look at the clothes if they are embarrassed.
Of course, there are still as few guests as men and women go together. Some men who wanted to come in at the door were very sharply dragged away by their female companions. If other men wanted to come in, they would naturally have to bear the eyes of those female customers. V
