Chapter 188: The Princess Returns
Vanessa didn't know if she was betraying her hue, so she rolled over and climbed out of bed, searching for her trousers among the clothes that were scattered all over the floor. The young maid slept soundly, her smell was still between his fingers, but it was like a rose petal overnight, no matter how delicate it was, it was yesterday's yellow flower, but fortunately, the process was pleasant, Vanessa could finally get rid of Brandt's preachy face and be her true self again.
"Where?" The woman on the bed grunted and rolled over, revealing her snow-white back, and she fell asleep again, the sheet sliding down her hips and thighs. Vanessa gently covered her and kissed her lightly on the hair, "I'll be back soon, darling." With that, he picked up a bunch of keys and left the room.
During this time, Vanessa did nothing else, he continued to use his appearance to the advantage of the maids in the palace, making the women in the castle crazy for themselves. At the beginning of his tenure, Terrence had no time to pay attention to his nonsense, and the guards sent to guard the princess only took these things for fun, and as long as he did not beat people, they did not stop them.
Now, his nonsense has finally borne fruitβthe maid who brought food to Brant has been slept by him.
For Brant's sake, I'll leave for a while. Vanessa frowned and reluctantly walked down the stairs deep in the castle, swore that the key to the forbidden magic stone was thrown to Brant, and turned back to continue enjoying the gentle country.
The door opened, and it was one of the many utility rooms in the castle's basement, and if it hadn't been for the maid writing the number on the key, even she herself would not have been able to tell which cell to send food to.
Brant was sitting on the ground with his legs open, the silver-haired prince was noticeably bleaker than Vanessa's privileges, the cottage had only one door leading to the outside world, not only did it not see any light, not even a bed to sit on, as far as the eye could see, there was a wooden barrel in a corner very close to it, and it was a strong stench, and other than that, only flies and maggots kept Brant company.
"Keys." Vanessa threw the key to the Forbidden Stone to Brant on the ground, looking at his posture, it seemed that the prince was grinding something before he came in, Vanessa glanced at the straw under his buttocks, there might be any sharp weapons hidden in it, "Take your treasure and come with me." β
Vanessa did not pay attention to the hateful gaze of Brant on the ground in the darkness, and when he turned around, the prince jumped to his feet, and let out a loud shout, and his fist came with it, and the princess felt only a stab in her left side, and quickly turned around, and received another blow in the heart. "You're crazy!" By the faint hedron light in the hallway, Vanessa wanted to see Brant's face, hoping to find signs of complete madness on his face.
But it's clear that it's not madness that haunts Brant, it's anger. "You sent Reina to kill those mercenaries!" His fist struck again, "Why can't you change that cold-blooded heart!" β
Vanessa ducked as she retreated, "I don't understand what you're talking about!" Don't go crazy, we'll be in trouble if we don't go quickly! β
"I'd rather you be captured by demons!" Brant punched Vanessa's pretty face, "Oter has come, he brought Reina's arrow, it's the arrow stuck in Horst's heart!" β
"He died innocently, what does it have to do with me!" Vanessa dodged the Prince's iron fist and returned the punch with Brant in the neck.
Brandt was shaken, and it was clear that the long absence of sunlight and the damp underground life had weakened the prince's strength, but despite this, he was as fierce as a lion. He pounced on Vanessa and twisted him, gently wrenched his arms and pressed him against the wall, "I've had enough of your quibbles and hurting my family, I'm going to kill you and avenge my parents and aunt!" β
A cold thing was pressed against her neck, Vanessa didn't know what it was, but believed it would definitely kill someone, "Then do it, you know I'm going to wake up somewhere else, and then come back here and dangle in front of your eyes." β
Brandt held a dagger made of a chain, in this boundless darkness, sharpening this chain was the only thing he could do, and it was also the power to support his spirit, but when it licked Vanessa's neck and could lightly cut through his soft skin, the prince finally failed to do it, both of them knew that he couldn't do it, and Vanessa was even more sure that he was in love with him as always, regardless of gender.
But this time, Brandt was furious, the mercenaries killed by Rainer were all those who chose to leave, they just wanted to go home, and he shot arrows from behind, brutally and insidiously murdering unsuspecting enemies, this is the most despicable act, as a knight, Brandt will never tolerate this kind of behavior, he can't live peacefully with Reyna, if one of them is destined to stay with Vanessa, then he can only choose to quit.
"Take me out," Brandt gasped, and made up his mind, "once we leave the palace, we'll have nothing to do with each other." β
"You're leaving?" Vanessa turned to look at the prince in disbelief, "Leave me?" Just for a few mercenaries? β
"That's human life! It's the blood of the innocent! β
"There's a chance they'll expose our whereabouts, and they're more likely to betray us like Horst! I can't risk it! β
"Yes, you never take risks," Brantt nodded, "you just believe in your own tricks and in the power that power brings you!" Thou hast turned a deer into a horse, and hast stirred up trouble in the temple, and hast wronged my aunt; Betrayed me and Reyna for self-preservation, and then betrayed himself to Terrence, intending to use him to reclaim the Land of Midsummer! β
"Your perverted aunt treats you like an ant in the dust, and she has committed more sins than the droplets that make up the River of Sleeping Lions, and if I don't turn the tide, the Flame Kingdom will be full of corpses!" Vanessa finally broke out, he felt the slackening of the prince's strength, turned around and yelled at Brant, "Yes, I wronged her, but isn't she worth dying?" She's killed so many people, including King Matthew, she's not hard-hearted! And those mercenaries, Tertu, Horst, none of the people I killed were not covered in blood! I didn't want to defend my actions, but he actually threatened to leave me, how could I let him leave me without any concern, "You want to leave, okay, then let me stay with Terrence to save your stupid ass, ha, I'm pretty good at Game of Thrones!" β
"No matter what, you don't have the right to decide whether someone else lives or dies." Brandt yelled, but was clearly lacking in confidence. He knew Vanessa was right, and he knew he shouldn't listen to his rhetoric anymore, but he just couldn't turn away, and he slammed his fist against the wall, venting his inexplicable anger.
"So who has that right?" Vanessa smiled and asked, "I don't want to be involved anymore, you are the one who pulled me back into this Game of Thrones, and now that you want to withdraw halfway, it is better to give me a more reasonable reason." β
"For example?" The prince raised his ice-blue gaze.
"Like a kiss." For no reason, Vanessa pressed her lips against Brant's, he could even hear the collision of the two beards, the fluffy touch made his heart tremble, what were he doing? When he wanted to pull away, but was hugged tightly by Brandt, the two of them were inseparable, greedy for each other, for a while, they couldn't tell the reason, they couldn't figure out whether it was love or hate, but when Vanessa raised her head again, it was not because of the change of love, but because of the change in herself - he was shrinking!
"Vanessa!" What happened at this moment surprised Brant, because the person in his arms had changed from a slender boy to a beautiful princess, "You have changed again!" β
