Chapter 22: Rayla
"When I put on the crown... You will be my queen... The color of lavender: It's blue and green.."
Under the bright sun, the beautiful girl gently hummed a song in her mouth, carefully combing the lamb, and her movements were gentle as if she were taking care of a baby.
The ewe next to her stretched out her pink tongue and licked the beads of sweat oozing from the tip of the girl's small nose, which was crispy and soft, making the girl a little itchy, and couldn't help giggling.
Her smile is sweet and pleasant, reminiscent of blue skies and turquoise meadows.
What a beautiful and harmonious scene, but it was always rudely interrupted.
"Cinderella, what are you doing?" a shrill voice rang out in the air, a shrill tone that drove away the pecking birds, "I want warm goat's milk... Damn, hurry up and get it here. ”
Cinderella stood up with a little panic and hurriedly replied, "Here you are, honorable Lady Temani. ”
Cinderella took the little half bowl of goat's milk at hand, and she quickly warmed it, and added two and a half spoonfuls of sugar and a spoonful of butter, and Madame Temani would be furious if she had a little more, and then her own dinner would fly away like a finches.
It's ridiculous that I had to call her "mother" half a year ago.
Until, my father died...
Cinderella's eyes darkened, but hope soon rekindled. As my mother taught me when I was a child, be patient, girl, the prince will one day come and put on your laurels...
Cinderella's hustle and bustle begins at the first rays of the morning sun and continues until the stars fill the night sky.
Mrs. Temani had dismissed most of the servants of the household two months earlier, and all the extra work had fallen on Cinderella's thin shoulders.
Fortunately, life is not only about painful thorns, but also about beautiful flowers.
It was an ordinary afternoon, and Mrs. Temani's two stupid daughters were shouting again: "Cinderella, where's my dress..." Cinderella, I want black tea! You lazy pig, can you hurry up?"
The poor girl was so busy that she knocked on the door.
"We need a little water, my poor mount is dying of thirst."
It was supposed to be a group of rushing knights or a tired mercenary, and Cinderella didn't quite tell the difference between the two. All her attention was drawn to the young man in the lead, with his brilliant blonde hair and resolute handsome countenance.
The man is polite and full of a different kind of charm.
He took Cinderella's water and politely said thank you.
They soon whistled away as if they had never been there, but Cinderella knew that her heart had been captured.
A stranger whose name she didn't even know.
If the song says that the prince is indeed a person, it must be the appearance of that person.
The girl looks forward to the future and asks God to arrange another meeting. And a voice said, "As thou wilt, my beautiful queen."
The day before the Golden Spike Festival, the King of the Kingdom of Blackcastle made a big announcement that he would be hosting a grand dinner at the royal palace on the evening of the Golden Spike Festival.
All the young maidens of the kingdom have been invited, and perhaps a princess will be born among them.
The Parade Prince's handsome appearance and noble status make the whole kingdom boil, and this is a golden opportunity.
From the princes and nobles to the common people, everyone moved, and the garment stores in the city-state made a lot of money, but the overtime rush still could not satisfy the enthusiasm of the young ladies.
The same goes for Mrs. Temani and her two stupid daughters.
"I will be the new princess. The eldest daughter, Antasia, proudly declared, but was soon retorted by her sister, another arrogant woman: "Shut up, the new princess must be me, look at your bloated figure." ”
"Damn, I'm your sister. ”
Two stupid women fight together, making Mrs. Temani growl.
In normal times, this rare scene might make Cinderella can't help but snicker, but now she is inexplicably sad.
She saw the prince's appearance clearly, it was the passerby who begged for water that day, a handsome and charming knight.
There is a voice in my heart that keeps telling Cinderella, you should go, it is your prince, no one can take it away, you should go...
But.. Cinderella looked at her shabby and gray dress and sighed helplessly.
How to get there, she didn't even have a decent evening dress.
For the first time, Cinderella hated her stepmother and two older sisters so much.
...
The city-state of the Kingdom of Blackcastle, a splendid royal palace.
The king stood respectfully at the foot of the hall, and the throne that should have belonged to him was now occupied by a young man.
"I have done as your Excellency commanded. King Blackcastle cautiously replied, "The dinner will be held tomorrow." ”
"Okay. Carlo shook the wine glass in his hand and stood up satisfied, "You will get everything you want." ”
With a flick of Carlo's fingers, an emerald green glow was released from his hand and landed on the king.
King Blackcastle's sluggish body began to regain its vitality, wrinkles erased, gray hair blackened, and old age left him, replaced by abundant energy.
The king could not contain the ecstasy and excitement in his heart, and knelt down, "Thank you to my master." ”
The king felt that he had made the most successful deal of his life. Black magic, witchcraft, demons... To hell with it, this is not something that can be obtained by believing in the Light.
Carlo smiled and nodded, "I'll be back." ”
The next moment, his figure disappeared into thin air.
Through the knights who went to the rescue of the Holy See, Carlo quickly found the king of the Kingdom of Black Castle, and then showed his strength a little, and everything went smoothly.
Everyone has desires, even the king. As long as the price is right, he can not hesitate to abandon his faith and choose to make a deal with the demon.
As for regaining youth, hehe, which is so easy.. It's just a simple little spell to stimulate life.
Lies and deception are also one of the compulsory courses for demons.
The next thing to do is to let Cinderella step by step into the trap she had set up and give her soul willingly.
Carlo spread his wings and weaved through the night, his wide demonic wings obscuring the silver moonlight, casting a huge shadow on the ground.
During this time, Carlo's experience points have been rising wildly, although the value is not large, only one or two points at a time, but the speed is very fast, so far there are nearly a thousand more experience.
Carlo could almost guess who the experience was coming from, but he wasn't quite sure how.
Didn't Sofiamo start massacring her own subjects?
Carlo shook his head and put the question aside, he couldn't wait to meet the charming and lovely Cinderella now.
As long as he completes this step, he can be promoted to the rank of Great Demon, and when the time comes, the entire plane will become his slaughterhouse.
