Chapter 17: The Queen of Halloween
The castle is tightly closed by heavy cloth curtains, and only the light from the lamps illuminates everything around it. Although there are a lot of lights, they are somewhat insufficient compared to the relatively large castle as a whole, resulting in a somewhat dim castle.
The gorgeous Gothic castle is full of amazing jack-o-lanterns, exquisite artwork is placed just right, and the unique decoration makes people feel like they are in a fairy tale world.
However, one of the most beautiful scenery in all this is the graceful and luxurious queen sitting on the throne, with extraordinary beauty.
No less than Leticia's blonde hair reflects a golden sheen, and the white gold crown is embellished with red agate-like orbs, and her crimson eyes shimmer with brilliant color. The appearance is more like a pampered princess than a queen.
Sitting quietly in her chair, the queen opened her eyes slightly, listening to the report of the knight maiden.
The gesture seemed to say that the queen was absent-minded, and I don't know how much she listened.
Despite this, the knight girl with a serious personality still reports the status of the mission in a serious manner.
“…… That's it. ”
Glancing at the nonchalant Queen, Fez Reis sighed silently in her heart.
Obviously for the queen's own temporary interest, but she ran almost all over the box garden, but it turned out that she didn't take this matter to heart.
The lack of interest is clearly a manifestation of the naughty child's excitement.
"It doesn't matter if the rest is anything, anyway, what about the reply from the White Yaksha?"
As one of the three major problem children in the box court, the queen obviously didn't take the other gods and Buddhas to heart, and all she cared about was the opponent.
After countless years of fighting, the queen has been obsessed with separating the winner from the White Yasha. She just wanted to hear the words of admitting defeat from the mouth of the White Yaksha.
Unfortunately, the White Yaksha only tries very hard when he fights the Queen of Halloween, and it is not easy to defeat her head-on.
How many years their battle had lasted and for what reason it had been in the first place has long been forgotten in the back of their minds.
Only the belief that the White Yaksha must be defeated has always been entrenched in the queen's heart.
However, after converting to Buddhism, the White Night King, who was once one of the three troubled children of the Hakote, has become only a lewd White Yasha, and Lingge has shrunk again and again.
Seeing that the opponent who had almost fought with her all her life had become so uncompetitive, the Halloween Queen's heart was quite angry with indignation and regret. The opponent she wants to defeat is the White Night King, not the ridiculous White Yasha she is now.
Therefore, the queen decided to hold a boon game with the "sovereign sun lord" as a bet in order to rekindle the fighting spirit in the hearts of the White Yakshas.
If she bets on the "sovereign of the sun", even the White Yasha, who is no longer interested in fighting her, will definitely be able to attract her.
As for sending invitations to others, it was only because the struggle between her and the White Yaksha had lasted for countless years, and they had already known each other very well. If no one else joins, the game won't be fun at all. The so-called accompanying the prince to study is roughly like this.
"Lady Hayasha's words......"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the queen.
"My lord? Ha! Who's the adult, are you calling that guy an adult? You're my knight, don't call that Yaksha an adult! ”
As if angry, the queen waved her hands in anger.
With a headache look, the strict knight had no choice but to remain silent.
“……”
In the face of the uninteresting reaction of the favored courtiers, the queen's original intention to tease and have some fun quickly disappeared, and she returned to her original boring appearance.
Maybe it's been seen through a long time ago, after all, he is a favorite minister who serves the queen, and it's impossible not to understand the character of his boss thoroughly. Silence may be the best way to deal with it. If you follow her words, you may be teased severely.
This may be the truth that can only be realized after suffering a lot.
"Forget it...... In short, the game is up to you. ”
Losing her opponent, even her favorite "toy" seems to be starting to become boring, and the queen, who feels the emptiness in her heart, yawns and can't help but feel sleepy.
Rao is so, even the queen with her eyes narrowed is still full of graceful beauty.
The gods and Buddhas in the box court, including the dependents of the gods and Buddhas, there are few guys who can't be on the table. It's better to say that one by one can easily become a heartthrob or something like that.
In other words, despite wearing a mask that covers her appearance all day long, Fez Reis may be a super cute girl under the mask.
……
The Halloween Queen's Boon Game was a big hit from the start, and even if there was no way to participate, many communities came from afar.
In order to properly accommodate these sudden increases in the number of people, Fez Reis, who was in charge of the management of the Gift Game, simply turned the game into a celebratory event, adding many mini-games that ordinary members of the community could participate in in one fell swoop.
Such a strong appeal is undoubtedly created by the long-term reputation of the "Halloween Queen" community.
There are still many days to go before the official bounty game begins, and the preliminary preparations are being carried out in an orderly manner.
"Blocking the sovereignty of the sun? It's unimaginable power. ”
Black Prince Alexander sighed.
The godslayers, who were thinking of joining in the fun, were attracted by the Gala held by the Queen of Halloween.
If the magicians of the original world were to see this picture, they would rather believe that there was something wrong with their eyes than that the godslayers could have a friendly day.
From the moment they inquired about the prizes of the game, similar words kept coming out of their mouths.
These daredevils didn't declare war directly on the Halloween Queen, thanks to the lessons they had learned before.
"Unfortunately, we don't meet the conditions to participate. I can't even participate in that bounty game...... Ahh ”
Shaking his head and sighing, the listless guy is Tony, the King of Swords.
"Even if you participate, you probably won't be able to win those guys."
A self-aware answer, from Anne's mouth.
In the past world, even if the opponent is a god of disobedience, they will only go forward to challenge with high spirits.
But unfortunately, the upper limit of the strength of these box garden worlds is simply too high to be seen, and even the god killers dare not mess around here. In the face of those star spirits, or the existence of innate gods and Buddhas, there is no output power to smash the continent level, and basically bid farewell to the possibility of victory.
Even if the godslayer is the one who holds the impossible victory in his hands and creates the impossible miracle, I am afraid that he knows in his heart that there is a limit to that miracle.
The fame of the Queen of Halloween, even they have heard some of it more or less.
Can't be offended.
The guy who is out of the ordinary in the three-digit number is not something they can provoke who is still spinning in the four digits today.
If you die, you will really die a miserable death in this world.
No!
If there were any special rules, it would be a happy thing to die.
They had learned from the deeds of the lord of Castlevania what a certain tragic race was made history.
"Huh! That's not ......"
Pandora, who was brightly lit up, didn't say a word, and ran away with a smoke.
The godkillers who couldn't catch up simply had to give up.
Anyway, that guy is a smart woman, so she must not do anything that makes her suffer.
Moreover, even if they suffer a loss and sell themselves or something, the god killers probably won't care.
"Wait, wait a minute!"
"Papa" Pandora, who was trotting, let out a coquettish cry, as if she was chasing something.
Ahead of her, someone heard her cry and looked at her suspiciously.
Unfortunately, there were so many people at the festival that the road was crowded with participants from all over the world, and the diminutive Pandora couldn't be seen in the crowd.
"It's like hearing a familiar person's voice...... Is it a delusion? ”
"Probably."
The blonde and silver-haired girls shine as if they stood out from the crowd, even in the crowd.
"At the end of the day, you can't tell the inside story of the game by looking at it like this."
The silver-haired woman muttered discontentedly.
If her friends had to bring her along, she didn't plan to squeeze into such a dense crowd.
"If you don't do that, you won't be able to do anything. No matter how much it is, as the home field, there will definitely be a hidden layout that is necessary for the game of Gifts. ”
Unable to find more clues from the "contract documents", Erica, who was unwilling to admit defeat, recommended herself to Cangzhen Mao and pulled her friend Liliana from a place to come here.
As a result, there were no clues at all.
Rather, they seem to be enjoying the excitement of the celebration.
"After all, it's the existence of that level, and the home of the game should be in a unique world."
Liliana, who felt guilty for receiving a reconnaissance mission but finding nothing, was not even in the mood to enjoy the festive atmosphere around her.
Although Cangzhen told them before setting off that she didn't expect them to find clues, and instead persuaded them to give up the task and participate in other bounty games to the fullest, the serious Liliana still couldn't accept the frustration of futile efforts.
"So...... Stop me! ”
A hand reached out from the crowd and grabbed Erica's arm.
Although she came from a relatively open modern society, Erica, who was wearing a short sleeve today, did not show any interest in strangers casually touching her skin, and she frowned and flashed to the side.
If it weren't for the fact that this was a celebration of the "Queen of Halloween" and couldn't cause chaos casually, she would rather choose to teach this rude a lesson. For example, break the other party's outstretched wolf paws or something.
