After dinner, Duke rested in the castle's most luxurious room, intending to read a book or write down his plans for the future.

But now he can't concentrate on what he does, and his eyes always glance to his right front from time to time.

Because his chief knight had lost his armor, he sat there leaning against a chair in a white knight's regular robe.

At this time, he was crossing his legs, fiddling with his long hair boringly.

Usually, it's okay to see her wearing armor, she doesn't show her curves at all, and she can be called a man with a helmet, and she won't have any thoughts about her at all.

But now she only wears home clothes, which are convex where they should be convex and warped where they should be, and have great feminine charm.

And under the reflection of the cold moonlight, there is a different flavor, as if it is a fairy under the moon.

"I said, what happened when you came to my room, the castle is so big that you don't have your own room?"

Finally, Duke couldn't help but ask, trying to get rid of this goblin that could only be seen but not eaten.

"Joseph asked me to guard you tonight for fear of any accidents. ”

Without putting on the armor, Lenia also became a little casual, and no longer put honorifics on her lips.

While talking, he stretched his waist and showed off his perfect body.

Duke was hit again and could only look away to prevent making a fool of himself, secretly hating Joseph's dead fat man.

Obviously, there are four beautiful maids below, but they just called this big girl over.

I always thought he was very good before, but in the end, what did I do with this kind of bad thing, I have to find a chance to clean him up in the future.

He suppressed his thoughts and prepared to use other methods to provoke Lenya away.

So he left his seat and began to take off his clothes and change into his pajamas.

But Lenia was unmoved, except for the fact that her ears were a little red.

"I'm going to sleep, you can do it yourself. ”

Seeing that Lenia still didn't move a bit, Duke dropped a cruel word and got into the bed in anger.

Lenia was speechless, placing her saber in her chair and getting up to place the cage containing a rabbit on Duke's nightstand.

This is the way Duke came up with to suppress the sorcery erosion in his body, he links a part of his magic power to the rabbit, so that the rabbit can withstand the constant impact of the erosion in his place, and will not die in a short time.

And he can sleep peacefully, just a few waste rabbits.

But it was all worth it, at least now he could sleep peacefully.

Lenia shook her head as Duke snapped into sleep and snored softly, and returned to the couch and placed her saber within her reach.

As soon as he thought of this method of linking rabbits, Duke, who had been tortured by witchcraft for days, soon fell into a deep sleep.

But a gurgling sound always irritated him, followed by a dripping sound that woke him up from his sleep.

"What's wrong?"

Lenia had been in a state of intense tension, and as soon as she felt Duke open his eyes, she put her hand on the hilt of her sword and asked with concern.

"Have you ever heard any strange sounds, such as gurgling and dripping? ”

Duke asked Lenia suspiciously, it stands to reason that the knight, who is known for his danger prediction and perception, should know better than he heard.

After listening with her eyes closed for a while, Lenia shook her head and said, "I didn't hear anything. ”

Duke felt a little strange, but it could not be ruled out that he had not gotten a good night's sleep for days and was suffering from auditory hallucinations caused by some nervousness.

"That's fine, I'll go back to sleep. ”

He rubbed his forehead, rolled over again and fell asleep.

This time he didn't hear any more and fell asleep again.

But soon after, he dreamed that he was in an endless pool of blood, and countless dry bones crawled out of the pool, creeping closer to him step by step.

After a while, he was back in his bedroom, and then countless strange monsters rushed from the walls around him, speaking obscure and indescribable blasphemy, and then devoured him.

With a thud, Duke ejected himself from his bed, jumped down at Lenia, who had closed her eyes and recuperated, and drew her sword with a thud.

"Lord?" When she was sure that there was no threat around, she sheathed her sword and looked at Duke in confusion.

"Don't you really feel anything?" Duke asked Lenia with a gasp, retelling his dream to Lenia in passing.

Lenia was also a little dignified after hearing this, and combined with Joseph's reminder, she felt that something might really be out of the ordinary.

So she first tapped the walls around her with her scabbard bit by bit, and found that the walls around them were solid, and there were no monsters hiding them.

Then she used her perception as a level 5 knight to the fullest, and also took a magic potion that briefly stimulated mental strength, but nothing unusual was detected.

"Maybe it's really nothing. ”

She shook her head at Duke, who, judging by all the information so far, Duke's own uncertainty might be the biggest source.

Duke rubbed the corners of his eyes, trying to calm his thoughts, but finally gave up.

There is simply no evidence pointing to anything else.

So he took a calming potion at Lenia's suggestion and rolled over to sleep again.

Perhaps the potion had worked, and this time he visibly felt that he had slept peacefully, and that there were no more nightmares to disturb him.

Even he felt as if he had returned to Blue Star, to his mother's arms, to let go of all the burdens of being a lord.

To be able to enjoy a completely relaxing holiday after a long absence.

I don't know how long it took.

Duke, who had sunk in a gentle sleep, felt a cold little hand slap his face hard, making him feel a trace of pain.

Duke slowly opened his eyes, and then glared at Lenya, who was slapping his face fiercely.

Lenia breathed a sigh of relief when Duke opened his eyes, then made a silent gesture towards Duke and pointed to the bedside table.

Duke was still a little annoyed, but was confused and uneasy to see Lenia's movements, and then looked in the direction of her finger.

This look made Duke, who was still a little angry to get up, break out in a cold sweat and completely sober up.

I saw the lively rabbit that was originally the object of his link, and his eyes were round for some reason, and his originally blood-red eyes became gray and dull.

For the first time, Duke fried a rabbit like a fluffy white cloud.

What's more, the rabbit has long since lost the breath of life.
