Chapter 104: Crimson (7)

Heavy curtains blocked the last rays of the setting sun, and the not-so-bright candlelight made the hall even darker. The www.biquge.info of the hall was full of people on both sides of the hall who couldn't be lit by candlelight, and they whispered something to each other. Even though she couldn't see clearly, Loria still felt that everyone's eyes were focused on her.

"What kind of stress test is this?" Loria said to Ixis behind her in a voice that everyone could hear, "Or did I accidentally walk under the canopy of the dead?" ”

The succubus didn't answer her question, but stared at the person in the first seat and muttered, "It's my type of thing." ”

The first element of Rocca's choice of contract demons may be special, and Ixis is a special succubus - she is only interested in becoming a ** sex.

"I'm very sorry, Miss. My friends and I are used to this environment, and I didn't expect it to make you feel uncomfortable. ”

The woman with long black hair apologized in a neutral voice, in a sincere tone that even made it seem that she was immersed in deep guilt. She left her seat and walked over to Loria, and the people in the hall left their seats, scrambling to light candles everywhere.

"I'm Clement, and it's been a lifetime honor to meet you."

Although it had a masculine name, it was not uncommon for a woman to be named Frederick during the war years, and such a name only added a bit of heroism to Miss Clement. A few meters in front of Loria, she knelt down on one knee and chanted, 'Praise be to the Light!' ’

Loria could hear a subtle, suppressed excitement in her earnest tone—either from utter sincerity, or from the utter of hypocrisy. There is no love in the world for no reason.,Pink Lori, who has always been afraid to speculate about others with the greatest malice, did not hesitate to classify it into the latter.。 As a noble military organization, the Scarlet Crusader leader of the Abbey had to be surnamed Mograine...... For those with ill intentions, Loria's greatest value lies in this. To date, she has encountered countless sycophants trying to get close to her, many of whom are more sensual and exaggerated than Clement.

She looked down at Clement, who seemed to be a knight who had met the lord with the highest courtesy, and said painlessly, "You are too polite. ”

After a little excuse, Loria sat down in the first seat in the hall. At this time, the dense candlelight illuminated every corner, and she finally saw Clement's appearance—hardly beautiful, but heroic, typical of a majestic knight.

It was hard for Loria to imagine such a gentle-mannered, respectful person who had not long ago been in a dimly lit environment, and called it a 'habit'. Before coming here, she had asked a lot of people about Clement. Most of them were at a loss, completely unaware of the existence of such a person, and the few remaining people also had mixed reviews of her.

"I have heard that Miss Clement is a man of propriety and wisdom."

"Clement? I heard that he was a coward who hid in the house for fear of the undead and did not dare to come out. ”

"She seems to have joined some kind of cult...... The Holy Light bless the Crusaders. ”

Without exception, they are all 'heard'.

At this moment, the mysterious Miss Clement stood in front of Loria with her head bowed, and all her men stood up straight, bowed their heads and remained silent. They were all waiting for Loria to say something - as the leader of the future.

He is not a duke, and the other party has no obligation to him.

For the first time, there must be a reason why the little-known self is so courteous.

However, before Daddy assigned them as his direct subordinates and came here by himself, they had never entered his sight at all.

And Clement himself, the most contradictory existence. He showed great sincerity and respect for himself, but he kept his eyes on it from the beginning.

Sitting in her chair, her cheeks in her hands, Loria looked around with interest, her mind contemplating the motives of Clement and his men. Occasionally, someone looked up at her, only to bow down again at the sight of her immediate change of target.

I can't figure out why I never intervened in my life when I had a strong purpose...... Loria tilted her head to look at Ixis beside her, wondering what her mother would do.

"Rocca will only say what she wants to say, and will not think about things that don't matter."

As if reading Loria's thoughts, a smile slowly bloomed on Ixis's face. She looked into Loria's eyes and whispered, "Let me see what you're capable of, my dear, powerful contractor...... daughter. ”

Never lying, but domineering, Rocka unexpectedly pleases the devil.

Loria whispered to herself, "Hmm...... Say what you want to say? ”

"Yes, from the heart...... ...... from the soul Quick, they can't wait. Questioning, sarcasm, scolding, whatever comes to mind. ”

The whispers of Ixis lingered in Loria's ears, demons never impose an idea on people, but they are the best at digging up and amplifying your inner secrets.

"Ahem......"

Loria cleared her throat and looked around the hall, while Clement and his men, who had been bowing their heads, couldn't help but stand up straight and look up at their future leader, the little girl on the first seat.

The first words the chiefs say to themselves are always impressive - if the war is over, they may happily hug their grandchildren and recount their memories over and over again.

"I'm hungry, give me something to eat." Loria's little face was full of seriousness, and she deliberately added: "I smelled the smell of hot butter from the beginning, bring me more." ”

I am hungry...... Hungry...... Finish.

Ixis coughed hard, as if she had choked on something.

'Holy ...... O Holy Light! Such exclamations came and went one after another.

"Master Clement, what's wrong with you?"

Someone shouted in surprise and stepped forward to support Clement, who had taken a few steps back and almost collapsed from unsteady footing.

"Let's ...... Let me take a break...... Just take it slowly. Clement said as he put his hand on his chest and gasped.

……

The crust of the white bread is toasted to a crispy crisp, and when gently cut, it gives off a rich wheat aroma; A thin layer of bacon is topped with a fluffy, white bread and a steaming, melting butter to hell with intrigue, speculation and suspicion.

From the hall to the dining room, Loria, who was still sitting on the main seat, greeted the restrained crowd unceremoniously.

Perhaps considering the relationship between size and food consumption, Loria's portion was so small that before everyone could react, the plate in front of Pink Lori was already empty.

"You're a great cook." Loria said, looking at Clement's plate.

"Thank you for the compliment, Miss." Clement, who was sitting on Loria's right hand, stopped preparing to eat and replied respectfully.

"Eat it quickly, it won't taste good if it's cold." Loria said, looking at Clement's plate.

"......" Clement, who was not stupid, had no choice but to say, "I...... I don't have much of an appetite. ”

The Scarlet Crusaders, who were starved of supplies and emphasized military discipline, never had one meal at a time, and even if Renault missed time, he would go hungry.

"That's not good, you see you're so thin, you can't eat more." Loria said, looking at Clement's plate.

"Thank you for your concern...... But......" Clement racked her brains to organize the language, and she struggled with the logical dilemma of how to thank the eldest lady for her meticulous care and be able to starve at the same time.

"It's a crime to waste food!" Without waiting for Clement to consider the art of language, Loria reached out and pulled her plate in front of her and said, "Let's not take it as an example." ”
