Chapter 192: Inner Wavering
"Since it's not! Then why are you doing such a thing!! Do you know? He's just a vile human being! Even if you are a contractor, you are just a human being! He lived a short life. Valadin yelled at Claudia.
"Not necessarily, if he becomes a blood servant."
"Hmph, if he turns into a blood servant or that kind of ghost, can you bear it?"
“……”
"You see, you still can't stand it, you made a bad decision in the first place."
"......" Claudia remained silent.
Valadin stared at Claudia, sighed, and finally said, "Claudia, don't continue, this time I'll act like I didn't see anything, but please...... Don't go any further. ”
With that, Valadin turned to open the door and walked out, and she saw Felik leaning back against the doorframe, oblique at herself.
"Boy, be careful, if you put Claudia in a situation where you can't choose, then I'll kill you! Without Claudia knowing! Valadin's gaze was as cold as the edge of a sword, and the killing intent emanated from the red pupils, and she looked at Felik, who did not nod or shake his head, but looked away from her.
Valadin snorted coldly, turned around and went downstairs, she didn't care about the intentions of this human, as long as this human had any suspicion of deviance, she would not care whether the other party was a devourer or an ally, for the sake of Claudia's future, she would not hesitate to kill him, as long as Claudia did not know in advance, the fallen god contract would not be activated.
Opening the door, Valadin did not stop and walked directly to Karl's quarters.
When he saw Karl, Valadin was as stunned as ever.
"Valadin, what's wrong? Come in, what are you doing at the door. ”
"Hmm...... Well! Valadin looked down, a faint flush on her cheeks, but it quickly dissipated, and she stepped in from Karl's side.
"Yo! Is Valadin coming? Another man in the room waved at Valadin.
Carl, unlike Claudia, is not enough to own his own home in his capacity. Only if the blood clan has made a certain contribution, the Senate will allow it to have its own territory and build its own residence, and owning a residence is equivalent to having the qualification to form a gang, if the mansion has someone who thinks that a certain kind of person is compatible with him and can help him, then he can invite the other party to live in his own home, if the other party agrees, then it means that the other party is willing to become your close friend.
This is not a subordinate relationship, and if the other party does not want to continue to maintain a close relationship with the owner of the mansion, they can move out at any time.
Those who are not invited, or who refuse to be invited, can live in a house belonging to the Senate, and there may be many people in one house, and of course there will be people who are not pleasing to the eye.
Why is there such a system?
For the stability of the entire race, the life span of the blood clan is too long, and with the long life comes with extraordinary wisdom, and the person who wants to stand at the apex of the entire race and lead the blood clan must be a person with top IQ, emotional intelligence, experience, and mentality, and only such a person can suppress those blood clans that are too good for human beings, and this system is just a small political game.
A person with a top level of strength like Carl, if the family status is higher, he can have his own territory, but unfortunately his family is not noble enough, but it is Carl's too good ability to raise the status of the entire family.
Although he could not have his own territory, he was invited by countless people, for these invitations, Carl rejected them all, even the invitations of his closest friends were refused, none of the people who were rejected regretted it, they already knew the result, and invited Carl only to show friendly intentions to the other party, as for where Carl really wanted to go, everyone knew it.
Claudia, the object of Carl's affection, is well known to the entire community.
The toad wants to eat swan meat, this sentence does not apply to him, but the result is very similar, even if he has a genius talent, but the imperfect bloodline is destined for the two to be inseparable.
Carl waited, waiting for Claudia's invitation, but almost everyone invited him, but Claudia didn't, and the only thing that could make Carl talk about ** was that there was no one else in Claudia's mansion except for her, except for the human who had been there recently.
"Carl, I'm out, you guys talk slowly."
"Okay, remember not to come back too late, I slept last time and let me open the door."
"Got it."
Another cohabitant patted Carl on the shoulder and went out, looking back at Carl with a little regret in his eyes before going out.
Valadin and Karl walked to the living room together and sat down on either side of the couch across the coffee table.
"How's Claudia doing?"
"Huh? She, she's okay. ”
Claudia again.
Valadin's brows furrowed inadvertently.
"Yes, that's great, last time in the Senate I didn't think she and that human were favored, if there was any trouble for this, it would be bad, please help me tell Claudia, if there is anything you need my help with, please let me know."
"Okay, I'll tell her." Valadin whispered, her brow furrowed even tighter.
Why?
Why do you keep asking Claudia?
Valadin repeated in his mind, his fingers pinching the porcelain cup harder.
Karl in front of him focused on setting up dim sum, he always entertained guests so thoughtfully, and he was perfect in dealing with people, whether it was to people with a higher status than himself or those with a lower status than himself, he was humble and polite, neither humble nor arrogant, capable and very reliable, obviously the smartest one of the people around, why should he be obsessed with a target that he couldn't touch at all, thinking of this, Valadin suddenly felt a little annoyed for no reason.
What an idiot he was, Valadin concluded in his mind.
"By the way, Valadin, did you come to me for something?"
"I ...... No, it's fine. Valadin suddenly realized that she had come here without thinking anything after leaving Claudia, but she didn't know the purpose of coming here, and why she had come here in the first place. Is it just to see Carl?
"It's fine, but if it's okay, stay and eat, I've prepared very rare blood, and there are good ingredients, I'll cook it myself today, if you can, you go and call Claudia, it's best if she comes, after such a serious meeting, you have to relax once in a while." And the thing she asked me to do last time was done, and this time it happened to be ......."
Staring at the chattering Karl, Valadin's mind went blank, such a Karl was too pitiful to keep in the dark.
But I can't tell him that I promised Claudia that if this thing gets out, Claudia will be ruined, and she's my best friend.
Suddenly, the figure of Claudia appeared in Valadin's mind, the beautiful and powerful, noble and confident back, and the lonely and cold smile on the corner of her mouth, this kind of Claudia is like a perfect creature in the night, compared to the other party, she is like an inconspicuous roadside stone, Valadin suddenly stopped thinking.
It's too pitiful to let Carl be like me, I'm the closest person to Carl, he shouldn't be imprisoned by Claudia, the idea suddenly came to Valadin.
And...... If it was Carl, who was in love with Claudia, he would never betray Claudia, and if he could protect Claudia and get Carl out of painful unrequited love, then - tell him that it's okay.
