Chapter Twenty-Three: The Man in Black Strikes Again
CHAPTER XXIII
"Your Royal Highness Princess, you really came for the Demon King's ruins."
Compared to Raffi and Lu Lin's dazed expressions, Huivis had such an expression.
"It seems like you knew what we were going to do when we came back here, Lady Whivis."
The face under the black veil twitched unnaturally.
"Female ...... Lady? β
Whether it's the current empire or other countries around it, fifteen or sixteen is not uncommon to get married and have children, and from the age of 25-6, Huvis is really worthy of the title of lady, but she has always regarded herself as a girl who has just graduated from the magic academy.
"yes, what? Are you a man? β
"I'm a real woman, a lady is a lady, it's just a title, let's talk about business, what is the purpose of your Royal Highness Princess? And you didn't even bring a single escort, would His Majesty be relieved that you were coming alone? β
Roland had long expected the other party to ask such a question, and took a single ponytail on the back of his head.
"We went out with a small group of Imperial knights, but then a few church knights begged us to take them with us, only to be attacked on our first night on the Silver Heron Plain, killing all the knights, and 233's arm was gone."
Lorance wisely did not say anything about his plan to treat Diana as an outcast. Speaking of which, that guy hasn't come out to explore the wind for a long time, it seems that it scared her a lot that time, alas~ Wait until you're done with this day, let her come out and have fun.
"I'm not afraid to tell you, this time I came out and soaked the king for more than a month before he agreed to allow me to come out to play, I believe that he will definitely not let me out easily after I go back this time, so I want to take this opportunity to have enough."
Huivis looked at the princess in front of her who didn't realize it at all, she was very rare and had a big head, such a princess really didn't have any sense of crisis at all, if the eyes of the enemy country knew that the king's most precious daughter was running around and catching her without guards, although her life would not be harmed in any way, but the price of wanting to redeem her back was definitely not small.
"Rafi Lulin, what about the decision of the two of you? I won't treat you badly, if you help me, I will open a flower shop for you in the imperial capital, and as long as I can use the flowers in my personal name, I will buy it from you, which is a lot of income~"
"Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't need a flower shop, it's an honor for us to be able to help." Raffi smiled and agreed, and refused Roland's offer.
"And what about you, Miss Huiweis? The two of them agreed without taking a penny~"
This sentence is obviously provocative.
"Since it is the princess's request, the concubine will naturally not refuse, but ......"
"I personally ask for nothing less than the remuneration"
To this, Lorance waved his hand
"It doesn't matter, as long as I have it"
"Of course you have, princess, after all, it's your personal belongings."
As she spoke, her eyes turned to the room, and through the window she could see that Diana was taking off her shirt and asking the head maid to re-examine and bandage the wound.
"It's really no problem, Miss Lafite is already well bandaged."
ββ¦β¦β
The expressionless head maid tugged the bandage, and Diana, who was in pain, had to give up complaining and sit on the stool honestly.
"How about the princess, can I accept this condition?"
Whivis's eyes curled slightly, observing the subtle expression of the young princess in front of him. Roland's pupils dilated for a moment and quickly returned to her usual appearance, and she shook her hair disappreciatively.
"Well, although it's not a big deal for a little maid to reward you, 233's words may not work"
"Oh? What do you say?"
"She, she's just a temporary worker I've hired to kill my boring time, and she doesn't even have a working meal, but although I can't call the shots to give her to you, I can order her to serve you like a master along the way, serving tea and water, feeding and warming the bed, whatever you like."
Chevis touched his smooth chin and looked like he was thinking about the gains and losses.
"Sounds pretty good, so be it, I'll join your Highness the princess."
"Happy Co-op x2"
The slender palm of the jade onion and the soft little hand with baby fat were held together, and they seemed to have reached a consensus. So the members of the team exploring the ruins of the Demon King were determined.
γDing Dong!γ Hint: Raffi, Lu Lin, and Whives join the team, and the gold experience is increased by an additional %30]
Diana, who heard the system prompt, looked out suspiciously, Huivis and Lu Lin could understand, but Rafi shouldn't have any combat power, no matter how you think about it, the ruins of the demon king are not a good place, right?
"Don't move," the cold and piercing maid's voice rang in my ears.
Diana had no choice but to sit down honestly.
ββ¦β¦β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Because of Diana's injury, Lorance decided to rest for the night today in this small village of two hundred people, and set off tomorrow. The night wind blows through the village, kicking up layers of dust and fallen leaves on the roadside.
Tonight's moon is dim, the sky is overcast, and there is no trace of the stars that usually dot the sky.
Many people's watchdogs bark from time to time.
Today...... It is not destined to be a quiet day.
The cold wind of the night blew up the corner of Diana's maid's outfit, and the four-cornered safety pants underneath could be faintly seen.
At her feet lay the corpses of several men dressed in black, some of them covered with spears made of earth and stone, and some with knives around their necks.
She wiped the blood from her face and grinned
"It seems that the old lady's wound can't be healed."
The wound on her back opened for the first time in those few operations, although it was not fatal but it was very painful! The smell of sweat and ointment mixed in the open wound was not pleasant.
It's still the group of ghosts in black, this time they sent more people and stronger strength. It took them less than ten minutes to slaughter the village except for Diana's gang, leaving no one behind, whether it was an old man or a baby crying in swaddling clothes.
The smell of blood filled the village, and the beasts around the village roared at the smell.
Lu Lin, who has lived in the village since she was a child, took out the scimitar on her waist and was about to rush towards the group of men in black, but fortunately Rafi stopped her in time, otherwise she would not have changed anything except adding a fallen corpse.
"Kill them!! I'm going to kill them! This bunch of brutes!! Bastard!!!!! β
Tears of anger streamed down the scar, and her heart-rending cries echoed in the night air, far and wide.
Then...... An arm rested on her head, a sturdy robotic arm made of pure steel.
"Since they are coming at me, then I will give you a satisfactory answer. Can the head maid trouble you to get out of here with them first? β
Diana's ruby eyes reflected the figures of everyone, and I wonder if it was an illusion that the pair of eyes was getting closer and closer to the color of blood.
