Chapter 21: The Clown
(Thanks to 'Thor Adu' for the 588 tip and 'Apocalypse' for the 1888 tip~)
――――――――
As a king, how can you not know a little bit about the means to see through people's hearts.
Even if Arthur didn't understand it originally, with the experience of the electric shock type Arthur and the assistance of the royal sword, he could easily see some of the other party's psychological fluctuations from a person's face.
Maybe it can't be compared with some masters of psychology, but in his hands, it's enough.
After all, what he was facing at the moment was nothing more than a Roya.
"Princess."
His eyes swept around, and Arthur could already see the mood swings of the people around him.
With a soft smile, Arthur looked back at Elquit, picked up the sherry in his hand, and touched the glass in the princess's hand opposite.
"Cheers." With a gesture, Arthur drank it all.
Elquette was slightly stunned, looked at Arthur's expression, and suddenly seemed to understand something.
With a smile on her face, the princess looked at Arthur with trusting eyes, and drank the sweet sherry in her hand as Arthur did.
"Cheers~" the princess said with a smile, with a hint of joy on her face.
Arthur lowered his head with a smile, but his gaze swept around casually.
If you were a fugitive and came to a public place in disguise, and two police officers walked in through the gate, what would be your expression?
Is it nervousness or pretense of calmness? Or is it to pretend to be calm after being nervous?
In any case, your state of mind at the moment is definitely not calm, and your behavior is naturally different from those around you who don't know anything.
Of course, based on this alone, Arthur can't be sure who Roa is, because he is not a master of psychology and does not have the means to be able to discern a person's inner thoughts from his micro-expressions.
So after discovering a few suspicious people, Arthur smiled back, made a confident look, and clinked glasses to the princess.
The confident appearance was naturally made for the Roya who was secretly observing them in the dark.
Although he can't let the other party show his feet immediately, it will also make his heart more nervous.
At this time, Arthur made a gesture of clinking glasses, what does this mean?
Actually, it doesn't represent anything.
But in the eyes of the other party, this is a signal!
It's not a smashing glass, it's a psychological cue -- two people come to the bar, order a drink, and then sit for two minutes before drinking the wine.
This is very different behavior from normal situations, and if it were you, what would you think?
'They...... Did you find me?! ’
This is what Roa is thinking now, Arthur can be very sure!
Then, at this time, the surrounding crowd will subconsciously have the desire to run away because of this thought~ people......
"Found you...... Roya. ”
The princess's voice sounded behind him, and the bartender, who was hesitating whether to continue pretending or flee immediately, suddenly turned his head and looked at Elquit with a look of horror.
"Sure enough......"
Arthur was also standing in front of the waiter at this moment, smiling.
The princess's voice just now was the final temptation, and the reaction of the guy in front of him was indeed not unexpected by Arthur.
"Who are Luo and Luoya?"
The waiter's face changed, and he looked at Arthur and the princess cautiously, with a look of doubt and fear on his face.
If this was a movie, Arthur would have praised 'good acting'.
Of course, it's perfect if your eyelids aren't constantly beating with fear and panic.
Pity...... Standing in front of the princess, the true ancestor who is like a natural enemy, can you still maintain your composure?
With a smile on his face, Arthur waved his hand, and Rhine had already appeared in his hands.
At the same time, the surrounding crowd suddenly fell silent, and then one of the famous blood clans suddenly stopped moving, and one by one closed their eyes and fell asleep.
The Enchanting Eye is activated.
How terrifying is the princess who has recovered her strength? Looking at the blood clan who fainted in the bar at this moment, you can see a rough idea.
It was just, just a gentle wink from the princess.
Luo Ya's face changed, and the scene of being killed by the princess countless times came to mind, this ancestor of the dead apostles could no longer control the fear in his heart, threw the plate in his hand, and his body disappeared in an instant, and he ran out dozens of meters in an instant.
"How could you escape?" Arthur put away Rhine, clasped his hands on his chest, and looked at Roa who was rushing out in the distance.
In this world, there are very few creatures that can escape in front of the princess.
And Roya, obviously, is not in this small range.
"Of course I won't let him escape."
The princess smiled, snuggled up to Arthur's side, and did nothing but wave her hand slightly.
Fantasy is realized!
Luo Ya, who was running away, suddenly felt that the space around him froze.
This feeling is familiar, because almost every time he is resurrected, he will experience such a death.
"Empty, think, embodied, present!"
Turning his head with difficulty, looking at the princess in the distance, Luo Ya said these four words with difficulty.
The princess smiled slightly, looking at Luo Ya who was struggling over there, she suddenly felt that the shadow that the other party had brought to her was nothing.
"Look, it's just such a clown, a clown who can be eliminated at will."
"That's right," said Arthur, the princess laughed even more happily, "but a clown." ”
I don't have to worry about anything, as long as Arthur is by his side.
Completely ignoring the restrained Roya, the princess looked up at Arthur's face, and the light in her eyes became more and more tender.
The princess was happy, but Luo Ya almost didn't spit out a mouthful of blood.
Nothing?! Listening to the words of the princess over there, even if Luo Ya was not a character with strong self-esteem, he was annoyed at the moment.
He is one of the twenty-seven ancestors of the Dead Apostles, and he can be said to be a high power in the Night Empire, but in the eyes of Princess Zhenzu, he is just a clown...... Clown...... Clown!
With a flash of anger in his eyes, Luo Ya roared, and just wanted to do something, but the restraint around him was a lock, completely enveloping it, leaving no gaps.
In the distance, the princess nestled in Arthur's arms stretched out her jade arm and snapped her fingers lightly.
The air around Roya suddenly distorted, and the next moment, countless pitch-black chains appeared out of thin air, locking the Dead Apostle who was trying to struggle in place.
"Now, let me continue to go to reincarnation."
Stretching out her palm with a smile, the princess's palm clenched slightly, getting harder and harder.
Luo Ya over there blushed suddenly.
He could feel the chains that had completely locked him tighter and tighter, so tight that he couldn't even breathe.
The body seems to be churned into meat sauce in the next moment.
But Luo Ya was not very afraid, because he was the ancestor of the undead Dead Apostles, and even if he was the true ancestor princess, he could not completely erase him.
Struggling to turn his head, Roya's grim gaze stared at the princess and Arthur beside him.
Wait...... When I am resurrected the next time, I will definitely kill all of you, those close to you, without missing a single bit!
Princess, do you like this little white face very much? I get it, I'm going to make you regret it!
Roaring loudly in his heart, Roya's gaze became more and more resentful.
But the next moment, his eyes froze.
Because, at this moment, there is a hand in front of his eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't give you any chance."
Arthur's chuckle reached Roya's ears, and before he could show a mocking look, Arthur's body changed, and suddenly made him sluggish again.
Silver-haired blood-pupiled, expressionless.
Arthur, who was in the form of a demon, just glanced at him, and Luo Ya had an irrepressible sense of fear in his heart.
It's not the predator-like fear of the princess, it's the fear of death!
Going to die, definitely going to die! Real death!
Luo Ya's eyes were round, his eyes were about to burst, and his blood-red pupils stared at Arthur in front of him.
"Die."
There was a voice that didn't look like a human in his ears, a demonic voice that made Luo Ya pause, and the next moment, he felt that something in his body seemed to be broken...... What is it?
And this is his last question in this world.
