Chapter 115: On the eve of the final
It was a night that was so special for Charlotte. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Have you ever kissed in a previous life?
Charlotte, whose memory is gradually blurring, can't remember it clearly, but that cold and soft kiss is indeed the first kiss that engraved Charlotte's soul.
Charlotte and Sylvia exchanged goodnight on their way back to the State Guesthouse, and while lying in bed, their spirits were unexpectedly high, although they were physically exhausted from the discomfort of continuous all-nighters and drunkenness.
He tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep all night.
"Kiss, kiss, kissβ" Not to mention the mischievous Elle babbling in her ear like a repeater, "Ah, Charlotte." If I tell Lawrence, do you think he's going to go crazy?"
"Shut up!" Charlotte snorted impatiently as she covered her ears with a pillow, "It was just an accident!
"Oh oh - Charlotte can be shy, come and see...... Woo quack!" The young girl with two ponytails was brutally suppressed by Charlotte before she could finish speaking.
Charlotte rolled over and pressed Elle, glaring at her viciously, "You idiot! Shut up! I just want to rest now, you know?"
Elle smiled mischievously and nodded.
Naturally, this threat had no effect on Elle, and although she stopped chattering, she covered her mouth and snickered strangely all night, causing Charlotte to go insane.
So much so that early the next morning, Claire had to give up knocking on the door and went straight to the door and dragged Charlotte out of bed.
"Do you know what day it is?" asked Claire, looking at Charlotte, who had a confused face with panda eyes.
"What day?"
"Vivien Leigh's final!"
"W-what! Damn, I drank too much last night and forgot everything. Charlotte immediately came to her senses, she rolled over and sat up from the bed, and said as she dressed, "Where's Vivien Leigh?"
"When I went to look for her, the maid told me that she had already arrived at the venue early. β
"Damn, why don't you wait for us together?"
"Maybe she doesn't want us to worry. β
Claire said as she helped Charlotte, who was in a hurry, hand over her belt.
"Thanks! If Mesfield wants to do something to Vivien Leigh, this is probably the best chance to do it. Charlotte said, buckling her belt, "I'll have to go find my sister, as long as she's ......."
Charlotte's face turned red.
He remembered the kiss he had taken from last night, and Sylvia had pulled the ends of her golden hair close to his face in the moonlight. Then, there is the cold and soft touch.
He blushed and said to Claire, "That'...... Dude, can you help me call my sister?"
"It's not a big problem, but why don't you go yourself?" Claire looked at Charlotte, who was flushed, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, "You, you guy, shouldn't you make a move on Her Highness Sylvia!?"
"How-maybe!" Charlotte tightened her belt and looked up at the sky with a red face, "You think too much, no matter how scumbag I am, I can't do such a thing, right......?"
"It's suspicious...... Claire wasn't such a fool, he stared at Charlotte with a straight face, and with detective-like inquiring eyes, "I think ...... when you say that"
"What about you? Did you successfully invite Vivien Leigh to dance with you last night?" Charlotte quickly changed the subject.
"Go and call Her Highness Sylvia, right?" Claire realized that continuing would only hurt each other, and immediately changed the subject like forgiveness, "No problem, leave it to me!"
He walked out of the room with a full promise, and before leaving the door, he turned back to Charlotte and said, "Leave the matter of calling His Highness to me, you go to the venue to take care of Fei Wenli first, and if there is any special situation, you can use the mage mark to contact." β
Charlotte nodded in her boots.
The two of them went their separate ways, and after Claire left, Charlotte tidied up her hair and hurried out.
As he passed by the various branches of the State Guesthouse, he saw that the servants of the Seven Kings were busy with their work. The grooms carefully inspected the traveling cars, the servants arranged all kinds of honor guards, and it seemed that the Grand Duke from all over the country was about to attend some formal occasion.
Charlotte was only puzzled for a moment, and then left all this behind, for him, the most important thing at this moment was the safety of Vivien Leigh, there was no one!
The streets are full of people, and the atmosphere in the imperial capital is as lively as a festival. Charlotte, who was shuttling through the crowd, heard the excited chatter of the excited people, and realized what was happening.
They were all discussing the upcoming finals, and many sighed that they couldn't get tickets for their money. Because according to the custom of the San Lorenzo Empire, His Majesty the future Emperor and the current crown prince will personally pardon the crimes of the victors, and the nobles and rulers of the principality, who are rarely seen in ordinary times, will also be present to watch this traditional gladiatorial tournament.
"I'm really sleepy!"
When she heard these discussions, Charlotte slapped her head, and her whole mood relaxed.
Both Elbert and the Seven Kings will be in attendance in the finals, which means that the possibility of a black-box operation in this tournament will be greatly reduced. Thinking of this, Charlotte's steps were also a little brisker, and she was even in the mood to enjoy the street scene of the imperial capital in a hurry.
However, a casual glance led Charlotte to see an unexpected person.
Star Princess Devonne!
Today, she changed from her usual red and white ranger costume, and wore a gray cloak, sometimes cautiously, sometimes hurriedly walking the streets.
If it weren't for the two emerald green scabbards around her waist that betrayed her identity, Charlotte wouldn't have recognized her identity for a while.
Charlotte looked suspiciously at the sneaky princess, and he saw Daphne leave the busy street, enter a narrow alley, and then stand at the mouth of the alley with her head bowed and her back against the mud wall like a tired passerby.
Charlotte thought about it, but after all, she couldn't suppress the curiosity in her heart, and followed her to the alley.
As soon as Charlotte stepped around the corner, Daphne, with her head down, immediately sensed his arrival, she raised her head, pounced on Charlotte before she could ask a question, and covered his mouth.
"Shhhh
Charlotte cowered, her mental tension in height, and the defensive magic that had been set up was about to be triggered. He was full of regret at the moment, hating that he shouldn't have been so close to Daphne, for fear that the vengeful princess would stab him hard.
But the imaginary revenge was not coming, and Daphne's pointed ears twitched slightly, eavesdropping on the conversation in the alley with great concentration.
Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief, he listened curiously, and what he heard suddenly surprised him!
I heard a man's voice hoarse say, "Put on this mask and enter the venue, I have already arranged everything for the gladiatorial tournament." You don't care about the rest, you just need to deal with a person wearing a rabbit mask, understand?"
"But what if the rest of the finalists attack me?" another middle-aged man asked in a low voice.
"No, they'll only attack the wearer of the rabbit mask. Deal with her, and my master will give you everything! Remember, you are our trump card!"
Hearing this, Daphne smiled at Charlotte, "How are you going to repay me?"
"How about making a promise?" Charlotte regretted as soon as these thoughtless words came out.
Sure enough, Devany snorted and punched Charlotte in the abdomen, leaving her hunched over like a boiled prawn, tears and snot oozing out.
"Hmph! If it weren't for the fact that you are the godbrother of His Highness Sylvia, I would have taken your life! This is interest, and the rest will be settled when they are settled!"
