The sound of the baby's crying woke Gardia from her slumber, and she opened her eyes slightly, only to see the little boy who had been taking care of her anxiously coaxing the crying baby in his hands.

"What's wrong with him? Is he hungry?" Gardia sat up slowly, she was not in a good state of mind due to her previous injury, and she had been in a state of half-awake and half-asleep.

"Sorry to bother you... I immediately quieted her down. The boy nervously apologized to Gardia.

"My words, it's okay. Gardia waved at the boy and motioned for him to come with the baby.

Although the boy hesitated, he still carried the child to Gardia's bedside.

"It's okay, it's okay... She stretched out her hand and gently stroked the baby's forehead, the warm light shining in her palm, and the baby who had been crying instantly quieted down.

"I'm sorry, my sister is too young, please forgive me. Seeing that the baby girl was quiet under Gardia's touch, the boy kept bowing to Gardia.

"You don't have to be so reserved with me, you've been taking care of me these days, right?" Gardia smiled softly, "Tell me your name." ”

"My name is Sho - this is my sister Amy, and then we have another sister named Aisha. ”

"It turned out to be three sisters and brothers... What about your parents?" asked Gardia, gently touching the baby girl's cheek, as she turned to the boy.

"I don't know, we've always lived with my sister, kept in the basement by slave traders all year round. ”

"Should such a young child be a slave ... ”

"Kind sister, please don't let the master abandon us, Amy and I will try not to cause you trouble... ”

"Master, is that the woman named Angelia?"

"Yes, although they are cold to us on the surface, they will give us food and a place to sleep. ”

"yes, it seems that the woman is not as annoying as it seems... Gardia muttered to herself.

"I'm sorry I annoyed you so much!" Angelia suddenly broke through the door, and Xiang on the side immediately knelt on the ground and bowed his head to her.

"It's a despicable act to eavesdrop on someone else... Gardia said coldly and sarcastically.

"Despicable?" Angelia smiled slightly, slowly walked in front of Xiang, and gently dragged his chin with the rest of his hand, "Talking about your own master to other people's slaves behind your back, is this what you angels like to do?"

"Treat such a young child as a slave and drink it, you demons are really cruel and ignorant guys!"

"That's right, as you said, I can take this little ghost's life at any time if I want!" Angelia suddenly grabbed Xiang's throat, and the boy's expression suddenly became painful.

"You!!" Gardia angrily tried to get up from the bed, but her body couldn't move at all.

"Alright, don't make a fuss!" Haruka walked in from the outside, Angelia let go of her hand, and the thin Xiang lay on the ground with a flushed face, coughing violently.

"It's rude, Your Majesty. Angelia saluted Haruka, "I just want this impolite angel to know where he stands. ”

"Alright, you can take Sho and his sister to Aisha's side first, I have something I want to talk to Gardia alone. Haruka said to her.

"Understood, Your Majesty. Angelia nodded, and Xiang on the side hurriedly picked up the baby on the side, and then followed her out of the room.

As the door was closed, the whole room fell into a deathly silence in an instant, and Haruka and Gardia just looked at each other quietly, and neither of them took the initiative to speak.

After a long while, Gardia finally couldn't help but speak.

"What the hell are you trying to do!!!" she asked loudly. "Didn't you say that if we met again in the future, we would be enemies! Why do you want to save me!!"

"I'm sorry... Haruka sighed softly, then walked over to Gardia's bed and sat down slowly.

"Why do you want to apologize!I don't want to hear your false words!Since you are the Demon King!Why did you hide your identity in the first place!!Why did you pretend to be our companion in the first place!!Deceived us and betrayed us at the last moment!!!" Gardia said, tears sliding down her cheeks like pearls.

Seeing Gardia's emotions out of control, Haruka suddenly stretched out her hand and held her in her arms strongly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't want to lie to you... I don't want to be a demon king either... WHO ARE ON YOUR OPPOSITE SIDE ... But that's not my choice ... ”

"Let go of me! I don't want to hear your argument!!" Unable to move her body, Gardia had almost no resistance, and could only snuggle up in Haruka's arms like this.

"The moment I lost Natalie, I swore to myself that I would never let any of my companions die again, whether it was you, Iska, or Elalian-senpai. ”

"Protect? Why are you? You are the Demon King, the existence that is about to destroy this world! We can only be enemies, and there is no other possibility! All this is a fate that has been arranged!!"

"Fate? I don't believe in such a thing! If there is such a thing, I'll break it with my own hands!"

"Stop talking nonsense!!"

"I'm serious!" Haruka's hand gripped her arm tightly......
