In front of her, Adele smiled as warm as a spring breeze and had a humble and polite attitude, which made Kareta a little restrained.

As a messenger of Venus, the goddess of love, Carret's previous job was to "serve", so she was not used to this kind of "served" treatment.

The maid named Ade, while taking off her human costume for Carette, said:

"Actually, you've seen me before. It was your first visit to the temple, and you slept in the dormitory for days, and when you woke up, I combed your hair. ”

Carreta knew that Adey's "first visit to the temple" was referring to the time when she was captured by Demos into another dimension when she first arrived in the human world.

"Huh?...? I'm really bothering you......"

Surprised in reply, Carette couldn't help but glance at the girl's face a few more times. Unfortunately, she had no impression of the pretty and intelligent face in front of her.

Adele was empathetic, and she could tell from Carret's sudden look that she had lost much of her memory of what had happened, so she smiled generously.

"The princess was in a hurry at that time, so she didn't remember Ade. In the future, Adele will serve the princess with all her heart. If you have any requirements in life, food, clothing and other necessities, you can tell me, and I will do my best to help you. ”

"Thank you so much. ”

Kareta smiled at her and replied. In vain, I thought of Shirley Shaw, the bright girl who had also deftly surrounded her in the human world to serve dutifully, but gave her life in vain because of her momentary confusion.

Because she feels that Adele and Shirley are very similar, with the same sunny and cheerful personality, and loves to talk and laugh, Carreta has some good feelings for Adele who wants to be close.

Supported by Ade, Carette entered the bathing water from the edge of the large bath, which was about forty meters square. The other three maids sat on the edge of the pool and waited, helping to hand over all the bathing items to Adele.

"Is the water warm?" asked Kareta as soon as she touched the pool.

"Yes, the water in this bath is naturally warm. ”

Adele helped Carette wash her long hair in the water behind her, and when she asked, she hurriedly answered.

At this time, Karet's mind grew more curious.

The Dark Temple is located in a different dimension that does not connect the heavens and the earth, where did this clear water, along with other necessities of life, come from?

"Ade, doesn't the Dark Temple exist in another dimension?

"Oh, you don't have to worry, the water is all clean. ”

Adei heard the concern implicit in Carette's question, so she explained unhurriedly:

"A passage in another dimension leads directly to Hades, and it is also the only way for human souls to enter Hades after death. Therefore, since the time of mythology, the king and the king of Hades have reached an agreement to exchange the water of the two rivers of Hades with this way of communication. Although the water of the Holy Land of Hades is sweet, it is also extremely cold, so after being introduced into the Dark Temple, it has always been sheltered by the king and the goddess Kali with their own divine power sources, and it will only feel warm to the touch. ”

There are five tributaries in Hades, and in addition to the three famous rivers of Xinchuan, Huochuan and Lethe, there are two rivers, namely the River of Sorrow and the River of Resentment.

The two rivers that Adei mentioned about bringing into the Temple of Darkness from Hades naturally refer to the River of Lamentation and the River of Resentment.

"I see......"

Kareta whispered, and her two slender jade arms stretched out of the water after swinging twice in the pool, holding a handful of clear water in the palms of the two combined hands.

A wisp of misty white smoke floated from the surface of the clear water, drifting warmly past Karete's line of sight and dissipating over the pool.

Lamentation, resentment –

As she recited the names of the two rivers Styx, Karet's expression turned into a state of gloom and gloom......

As soon as she was out of the bath, three maids gathered around Carette, each holding a rectangular silver tray in both hands.

One of the maids took out a white square scarf from the tray in her hand to dry the water droplets on Karet's body, and Adele took advantage of this time to change into another clean white attendant dress for herself, and her movements were very quick and skillful.

Then she came to serve at Karet's side.

She took a silver, gem-encrusted silver bottle from another maid's tray, pulled the cork, and poured some white cream from it.

Carret's nostrils immediately filled her nostrils with a sweet scent, like the smell of coconut fruit mixed with cream. When the aroma is completely dissipated, the air is filled with the rich smell of the combination of snowdrops and roses.

"Princess, this is a balm that can be used to maintain skin and beauty, and the formula was left by Hermis, the ambassador of the gods. ”

Adele explained, casually put down the long-necked silver bottle, closed the two palms and rubbed them a few times, and dipped the balm in the center of the palms and applied it all over Karete's body.

Hermes is the attendant of Zeus, the god of the holy mountain, and is also the god with the title of "God of Healing".

In the god generation, whenever there was an incurable plague epidemic in the human world, Hermis would disguise himself as an ordinary human and go down to the mortal world to heal the sick, and leave some secret recipes for treating stubborn diseases for humans at that time.

Carette raised her face, intoxicated herself as she inhaled the fragrant scent that had sprouted around her, and touched her silky skin with her hand. She felt that the efficacy of this ancient secret balm was really no worse than those big brands of high-end after-bath lotions in the human world!

Another maid was dressed in a pink glass gauze fringed dress and half-heeled shoes in matching colors.

Adele helped Carette change into her skirt and draped the delicate streamers of cicada's wings over her arms.

On one side of the second floor of the shrine is the side hall for dining.

As Carette and Adele walk in, they see Demos and Cali, as well as two maids at the table.

Demos also changed into a clerical gown, a new straight-placked black gown and trousers, and two strings of dark orbs on his left shoulder.

With every movement of his own, this beautiful ornament makes a low crunch between swaying and colliding. When lit by candles, it glows with a hazy gilded glow, and it is also a wonderful finishing touch to the single black color of his clothing.

Seeing Carette and her maid enter, Demos rose from the head of the long table to greet her.

"It's coming? ”

While he was talking to her, Adele had already walked over to the vice-chair at the head of the table and stood respectfully waiting for her hostess.

A series of cutlery has already been stacked on the light-colored tablecloth of the table.

"Go and sit down. ”

Demos smiled again at Carette and pulled her back to the table.

At the head of Karete's seat is Kali, the goddess of blood. As soon as Carette sat down, she saw the goddess in the bright red dress smiling politely at her side, and then ordered the male attendant who was guarding the door:

"Alright, let's pass the meal. Don't keep the king and princess waiting too long!"

The waiter walked out, and after a while he returned, standing in his place at the door.

He was followed by a column of male servants, each carrying a dish in his hand, whether a meal or a drink, in a different style.

The dishes were set on the table, and the line left. The attendants at the table followed and poured wine and cloth for the three gods seated.

The meal was quite hearty.

The main dishes include fried fish with honey milk, grilled grouse, grilled pork loin, and charcoal-grilled lamb chops. The garnish is a cheese pie, a crystal salad, and the main dish is a whole-wheat meal bun and rice. There are two drinks: light wine and fruit syrup.

"Come on, all raise your glasses. A toast to the reunion with each other today in the Dark Temple. ”

Demos was the first to raise the gold jewel cup full of wine, followed by Carette and Cali.

Kali suddenly stood up from his seat and raised his glass to Carrete:

"In the past, for the benefit of the dark clan, Cali had a lot of offense and disrespect to the princess, but now that it has become a family, please don't blame the past, and have a lot of Haihan. ”

As he finished speaking, Cali raised one side of his face and drew a sparse smile.

Kareta couldn't help but stare at Kali for a moment. It was at this moment that she happened to capture the sharp edge of the two points that crossed the deepest part of the other party's purple eyes.

"Sister, the previous thing is over, don't mention it again, okay?"

Demos saw Carret's crampedness and once again came to her rescue.

He only glanced at Kali, and then said:

"I've been too busy in the human world to take care of the affairs of my clan. Thanks to you staying in the dimension to take care of me, I should thank you well. ”

It was hard for the king to speak like this. In any case, it would be good for you and the princess to return to the clan. It's true that you haven't lived in the temple for too long, and this time the Yuan is getting colder and colder, even if Cali wants to maintain it carefully, he will feel too strong because of loneliness!"

Cali turned his head to look at Demos, and Ling Shi's gaze suddenly became stunned. What changed her expression significantly was the atmosphere in the dining hall.

In an instant, there seemed to be a strong oppressive force surging in the air, stirring up the hearts of all the gods present to be at peace.

Even the attendants had to stand quietly with their heads bowed, not daring to make any noise easily.

Demos didn't say anything more, his handsome face turned into silence, as if he had no motives for hearing Cali's ulterior motives.

Picking up his glass and taking another sip of wine, he lowered his eyes and fiddled with his knife and fork to eat.

Ignoring Kali, Kareta picked up the spoon and stirred it on the plate, scooping a spoonful of broth into her mouth.

Suddenly, the expression on her face froze. However, this small change in expression was firmly grasped by Cali, who was sitting opposite.

"Not to your liking?"

With her wrist flicking the wine glass in her hand, she asked Kareta with a smile, her red lips moving with a hint of mockery.

After hearing this, Demos immediately asked Carreta with concern:

"What's wrong? It's not delicious?"

"No... ......No," Karette replied in a panic as she swallowed the cold soup in her mouth.

"And what do you want to eat?" I immediately ordered the men to fetch it. ”

"No need. ”

To be honest, this meat dish is not very good. The color is not only light and tasteless, but the temperature is almost cold.

Kareta instinctively sensed that Cali was not acting as friendly to her as she had been when they first met outside the temple.

She politely declined Demos's offer, explaining to him:

"It's really delicious. I just think... The soup is not too hot, just not used to it. ”

"The princess didn't know that at this time, it was a fierce wind in the dimension, and it was inevitable that the cold wind blowing from the food from the room to this dining hall would be blown by the cold wind that poured into the temple, so it was not very hot. In addition, although the Dark Temple regularly has personnel assigned to the human world to comprador daily necessities, but the variety is limited, it will not be as complete as being in the human world, and I hope that the princess will be about to do so. ”

After Cali finished tasting the wine, his sharp eyes remained fixed on Carette's strange face.

Seeing that she still refused to talk too much, she chuckled slightly and seemed to be talking to herself:

"Anyway, since the god generation~ I and the king have helped each other to live together in this environment, and we have long been used to it......"

Out of the corner of his eye, Cali saw Demos glaring at her, and quickly stopped.

At this time, Kali naturally had a sense of superiority in her heart, she knew that there was no need to continue to talk to Karet, presumably what she had just said had caused a lot of damage to the psychology of the little woman opposite.

Just as Cali was talking, Karete's brow moved slightly, as light as a slight ripple when the breeze stroked the river, and after a single fluctuation, it quickly spread across the entire delicate face.

She was still silent, sitting quietly at the vice-master's table with a warm smile, eating the food on the plate, looking indifferent.
