Chapter 287: Change of Mind

Shocked, Felik pushed open the door and walked back to his room.

After hearing about that, Felik couldn't calm down.

"You're here? I'm almost asleep. ”

"Huh?"

Felik looked up blankly, Claudia sat weakly on the bed, looked through the books in his hands, saw Felik come in and put down the books, and greeted him with a wry smile.

"I'm sorry, I went to the wrong room."

I was so shocked by that incident that I went to the wrong room, I was so out of shape that I wanted to turn around and leave.

At this time, Claudia kept him.

"Since you're in, why don't you sit down for a while before you leave?"

It is also said that Claudia has the right to know about Augustus, thinking so, Felik turned around and looked at the room, but found that there was no place for himself to sit, and the only place he could sit was by Claudia's bed.

Just as he was weighing, Claudia lifted the quilt and patted the spot next to her.

After a moment's hesitation, Felik climbed in, and the two of them leaned side by side on the headboard of the bed, speechless for a moment.

"Obviously, I was a hooligan before, why did I hesitate just now, did you see that I was in a bad mood?"

Hearing this, Felik looked at each other with his spare eyes, Claudia lowered her head, quietly flipped through the books in her hands, and did not look at him, in his eyes, Claudia is very conflicted now, so she should use reading books to calm her mood.

Is it because of the reason for losing?

"You think too much, I hesitate because you have been poisoned by that poisonous heart, and you haven't recovered yet, if this is the case, I still want you to cooperate, then can I still be considered a human being?" Felik half-jokingly.

I thought that this kind of meat talk would be attacked by the other party, but unexpectedly Claudia didn't hit him this time.

The corners of Claudia's mouth crooked, and she sighed: "Your way of comforting people...... It's really clumsy. ”

Smack.

Closing the book and setting it aside, Claudia's brows furrowed.

"We failed, and I was the one who dragged our feet."

Sure enough, this stupid woman fell into self-blame, now what should I do? Felik was a little dazed.

"I agreed to this duel without permission, and in fact, I was also at fault."

"No, I'm too weak."

Felik stopped talking, and he thought it would be nice to make the other person aware of that.

"But we haven't lost yet, you said, give the other party what he wants, then let the other party also give you what you want, now is the time to use your brain."

After speaking, Claudia turned her head to look at Felik, and found that the other party was looking at her directly, and couldn't help but show a displeased expression: "Why are you looking at me like this, isn't what I said wrong?" ”

"No, you have a point! I thought you'd be decadent for a while. ”

Claudia narrowed her eyes and nodded knowingly.

"It turns out that in your eyes, I am such a fragile woman, I am underestimated by you, I have lived for more than a hundred years, and it is more than enough to be your grandmother in terms of age, it is really unpleasant to be despised by you."

"It's not about age or anything, it's about thoughts." Felik pointed to his head: "My spiritual realm is high, flexible thinking, witty actions, the young and promising Demon King is not only wise, but also outstanding, it can be said that he is both civil and military, even if you live for another hundred years, you can't compare to mine." ”

Thump!

Felik was kicked out of bed.

"Alright, that's all for the boasting, now I'm going to get down to business." Claudia spoke.

"Say it." Philik shamelessly climbed back into bed.

"I heard about my father from Lilia before."

This sentence made Felick pause in the action of covering the quilt, and he quickly recovered to his original state, covered himself with the quilt, and then Claudia asked rhetorically, "And then?" ”

Her words seemed to say that her father was someone who could push the limits of his bloodline.

"So you want to investigate your dad in the rest of the negotiation period?"

"Yes."

"If breaking through the bloodline limit is a way, your father would have made it public a long time ago, so that this method was popularized, and now the bloodline has no way to break through the bloodline limit publicly, obviously not everyone can do it, even if you find out, it won't be beneficial, even if you do it, do you want to investigate?"

Claudia nodded firmly: "Well, I want to investigate!" It's not just a way to break through the limits of the bloodline, but also to know more about my father. ”

In this case, there is no reason to hide it, and Felik decides to tell the other party what he has just learned.

"I've heard from Lilia that your father wasn't a Blood, but a human."

Claudia's eyes widened, and she looked at Felik incredulously, her mouth slightly open, and she was speechless in surprise, and it took a long time before she could hold back a sentence.

"You...... No kidding, right? ”

"I don't have a penchant for making jokes, Lilia said it herself, she met your father almost a thousand years ago, when your father was still a human being."

"A thousand or hundreds of years, exactly?"

"Fifteen hundred years."

"Hmph, how is this possible, my father is the seventh elder, if he is 1,500 years old, then he is even older than the first elder, no one knows how old the first elder is, but he can probably guess that the age of the first elder is about 1,300 years old, and my father was born two hundred years earlier than the first elder...... Is it possible? ”

"It's hard to imagine, but it's not impossible, and I don't think Lilia lied to me."

He said it seriously, as if it were a well-thought-out judgment.

"You're not going to be smitten by her because she's beautiful." Claudia sarcastically said in her usual arrogant tone, her eyes narrowing slightly, as if to hide the jealousy in her eyes.

Seeing the other party like this, Felik was secretly a little happy in his heart.

"Am I like the kind of person who is obsessed with beauty? There is no shortage of women around me who are more beautiful than her, but she is too beautiful and not good, she will make me addicted to pleasure and unable to extricate myself, as a demon king, I will always have the illusion that I am being conquered by a beautiful blood clan, so recently I have been restraining myself. ”

Felik was not stingy with his compliment, he thought that Claudia must know that it was a compliment, but she should not refuse, even if it was an unreal overture, she would gladly accept it if she was arrogant, Felik knew that Claudia was such a person.

"You're still as shameless as ever."

Sure enough, although the mouth is unforgiving, the smile at the corner of the mouth is so obvious.

"So trust my judgment, Lilia didn't lie to me." Felik continued.

Hearing this, Claudia frowned and cast a suspicious look at Felik.

"You seem to be trying to convince me that you're suspicious, Felik."

"I will not betray you, never." Felik emphasized: "You seem to have forgotten the contractual relationship between the two of us, I just want you to understand where I stand. Your father is using me, and I am using him, and my relationship with Augustus is not as simple as the contract between you and me, and I don't think that in the end, I have to be on opposite sides with him, so I have to know what he wants. He was hiding too much, which forced me to be more wary of him. ”

"To keep me from being caught in the middle of the way?"

"Yes."

"But I still can't believe that my father was a human, and that humans can't be transformed into a blood race, they can only become blood servants, and then survive in a way close to blood through the blood of the host. Imagine if humans could easily convert to the Bloodline, and we wouldn't have to be so cautious about dwelling in the Holy Land. ”

"You're right, but there's always something to be done."

"What if my father was a human being? There are always secrets that I want to hide in the millennia, and even if I make a pact with you, I have secrets that I don't want you to know, let alone my father. Claudia thought for a moment, and suddenly changed her words and said, "Do you have a secret that you don't want me to know?" ”

Asked by the other party, Felik looked away, and he remembered Belina.

Are you stepping on two boats now?

Didn't you get killed by the Fallen God Contract, was it because of the circumstances at the time? Or is it because I didn't classify that as a betrayal at all? Felik didn't know, but he thought that if Claudia knew, he might die.

"Felik, are you ...... Is there another woman? ”

Claudia suddenly sat up from the bed and stared at Felik, the cold murderous intent in his eyes that made him fall into an ice cellar, and frightened Felik to shake his head like a dog out of water.

"How is that possible!! How could a person who cherishes my life do such a thing! Don't think about it, I'm going to die!! Can you calm down? I swear to God, I've never done anything to be sorry for you. ”

A woman's intuition is so terrifying, she obviously didn't say anything, how did she see it, could it be that Claudia is actually a monster who can read minds?

Seeing Felik's overly frightened appearance, Claudia also felt that she was a little too much, this guy is really sorry for his life, and he shouldn't mess around.

So she put away her expression as if she was about to kill, calmed down, and leaned her back back back on the headboard.

"Forgive me for not having the guts, I'm suspicious, but let's say it first, if you do something out of the ordinary, I don't guarantee that you won't die."

Frightened into a cold sweat, Felik nodded with a smile and promised to do so.

"Let's talk about your father, since you don't want to know his secret, do you want to investigate?"

I saw Claudia pinching her delicate and round chin, thinking for a while, with a decisive look in her eyes, she nodded vigorously, and replied: "Sure enough, it is still necessary to find a way to break through the bloodline." ”

"Now that it's been decided, then we can continue to inquire from Lilia's side, and the Senate's mission has not been completed and has not been completed, the alliance between the blood clan and the empire will bury hidden dangers, and there is still Gurador here, hey- there is a long way to go."

The thought of having so many worries to do comes out, and once the tense nerves are relaxed, the accumulated pressure will be returned exponentially.

"Claudia, I'm tired, can I not go back?"

"It doesn't matter, if you want to sleep here, sleep here, it's almost dawn, and I'm going to sleep too."

……

I had a dream, and in the dream, I returned to the Demon King's Palace, and I dreamed of Agnes.

When he opened his eyes, it was a dark room, Felik got up from the bed, walked to the window and opened the curtain a small slit, outside was the red sunset, which was about to sink to the horizon, the blood-colored remnant sun seemed to release the last light and heat, and the afterglow was brighter than ever, dyeing the outside golden.

"I've slept all day, and even my work and rest habits have become the same as those of the Bloodline." Felik sighed.

It's the first time I've climbed into bed like this and done nothing.

After a while, Claudia also woke up, and after a day's sleep, the toxins in her body were gradually cleared away, and returned to the original level, and the two walked out of the room, and followed the usual corridor all the way to the hall, where the three princes were already gossiping.

Seeing Felik and Claudia walk out, Lilia waved at them.

"Demon boy, we have changed our minds, and we have promised to assist the Senate and the Empire in cooperation."

Lilia's words made both of them stunned, and they looked at each other, staring at each other with big eyes, completely confused.

Obviously yesterday he refused, but today he agreed, was it what happened during the day that prompted the three princes to make such a decision?

Felik quickly calmed down and found a chair to sit on.

"Your Royal Highness, why did you suddenly agree? Obviously, I refused yesterday. ”

Labis smiled bitterly: "No way, last night the Senate sent a secret letter, saying that the Demon King escaped from the Elven Forest, and not just escaped, she seems to have obtained the truth." If the various races in the outside world join forces, I am afraid that they will be devoured by the Demon King. ”

Felik's eyes flashed with surprise.

The Thing of Truth, the second time I've heard the name, the mage plague seems to be caused by it, the Thing of Truth originally seemed to be jointly owned by Maisie and Lance, but looking at Maisie's forgery of letters, she was betrayed by Lance, and now this thing is in Lance's hands.

The information of the Senate said that the truth was in the possession of Agnes, could it be ...... Lance and Agnes met?

Lance is a dangerous person, and the wolf is ambitious and scheming, is this time to approach Agnes to take advantage of the situation?

"What is this thing of truth? Sounds like a lot of power. ”

Rabbis was about to speak, but Lilia answered.

"It is the source of knowledge, which encompasses the mysteries of this world, and those who get the truth can know the truth of this world, and those who know all the knowledge of this world can naturally obtain unparalleled power with the help of knowledge.

"This ...... That's an exaggeration, right? If you can become so strong when you get it, then wouldn't the Demon King be invincible now. ”

"You don't look stupid, if the truth thing can be used so simply, everyone touches it, then there are more strong people than dogs? It's like an anti-heaven artifact, you have to pay a corresponding price if you want to use it, but no one knows the price of the truth thing, and how to use it is impossible to know. ”

Claudia listened with a little skepticism.

"Why haven't you heard the name of such a powerful artifact?"

"It's normal, because its name has been banned by the empire for five hundred and ninety-eight years, hundreds of years of forgetting and its own etherealism, you juniors have never heard of it, and it is understandable, but the blood clan that has lived longer has heard these four words more or less."
