Rum looked around, he waited quietly for the demon's response, many people thought that these evil creatures only existed in those absurd stories, and he did too, but for some ancient families, they knew some ancient history that no one remembered for a long time, including these legendary creatures, which did exist.

After a brief silence, there was a sudden snickering sound from Rum's feet, and Rum immediately retreated, and the corpse of "himself" who had fallen to the ground stood up, his eyes flashing with a strange luster, and his chest was still oozing blood, but it didn't seem to affect his movement in the slightest.

The corpse, it should be said, the demon clapped his hands and said appreciatively, "Rum Falster, can I call you honorifially, Lord Falst?" he said, opening his mouth, blood still in his mouth.

"Leave it to yourself, sir. Rum replied calmly. "But I want you to show your true identity, not to talk to me like this. There was a hint of anger in Rum's tone.

"Well, of course, I have to apologize for my presumptuousness, you're not one of those who can be distracted by these carving tricks. The man gracefully performed a gentleman's salute, and then, gradually, his body changed, and in a few seconds he had become a completely different image—a plain-looking young man, but with abnormal fair skin.

Rum retracted his sword into its scabbard, not believing that he could hurt a living demon with his sword. Therefore, there is no need to hold it in your hand anymore and look like you are afraid.

"Hail to you, Lord Falst, there are few people who have faced their dark side as much as you do. The man paused, and tapped his head as if he remembered something. "What a faux pas, I don't think I reported myself yet, did I?" he saluted again, something Rum had never seen before. "Heh, these demons have their own set of etiquette. Rum thought with some irony.

"I am Malterence of Fester Canyon, a subordinate of abomination and hatred, and a loyal servant of Lord Maher. Maltellance introduced himself as deliberately imitating the appearance of the aristocracy in his behavior, but it was too pompous.

"Your strength is impressive, Lord Falst, so I accept your invitation to speak with you face-to-face. With a false smile on his lips, he looked at Rum quietly, waiting for his response.

Rum waited for him to finish his sentence before he smiled faintly, and then said with a slight mockery, "Very good, but it sounds like you're a minor character, aren't you?"

Maltellance didn't care about the thorns in Rum's words. "Oh, of course, I'm a small character compared to those great people. He stepped aside, touched a big tree, and said, "Like this tree, I am only one of the many leaves on it, unobtrusive, and incapable of turning the waves," he said sadly.

"Oh, even so, you still have the power to trap me, and my excellent soldiers. Rum said. "These tricks, these fogs, and hallucinations, are your usual methods, aren't they?"

"I think you've misunderstood, Lord Falst," Malterence shook his head. "It's not you who trap those fogs, it's us who trap those fogs. He gestured to the fog floating around him.

"I see, then I guess my soldiers and I are still in our dreams, aren't we?" Rum touched his chin, and then asked very confidently.

"Is that what you're capable of? to go into someone else's sleep? and then make them face what they don't want to see?"

"Part of it, part of it, part of it, part of it. Maltellance emphasized. "Besides, it's useful, isn't it? At least you're all trapped here by me. ”

Rum and Malterence looked at each other, and then they both smiled knowingly.

"Oh, Lord Falst, you are a noble man. Malterence said that they were both smart people and understood in an instant what the other person wanted. "It's easy, my Excellency, and if you're willing to help me get out of here, I'll repay you, starting with getting you out of here. ”

"Hehe, you want to be free, and I want to be free. If you have the ability to get me through here, I don't think it will be hard to get you out. Rum said with a faint smile. "So, my question is, what do I have to pay for you to help me?"

With a truly demonic smile, Maltellance walked up to Rum's side and whispered in his ear, "It's simple, Your Excellency, it's simple, all you need to do is lend me your body for the time being." ”

"What are you doing? Miss Eve. Just as Eve was about to read the letter, Lady Maya suddenly pushed the door open, causing Eve to hide it.

"I saw you running down the hallway, is there anything wrong with you?" asked Lady Maya, confused, Eve's unusual behavior made him wonder what she was doing.

"Well, dear madam, I'm just some, a little anxious. Eve blushed and squirmed. "Please be considerate, I have never lived in such a large manor, so some of them cannot be found. Eve cleverly lied, and her face, which turned red with excitement, was also understood by Madame Maya as shyness.

Madame Maya smiled understandingly. "I didn't think it through, I should have taken you around first. She shook her head, and then continued, "When you are rested, I will show you around the manor, lest you get lost again." Lady Maya slowly closed the door and walked away.

Eve waited until she could no longer hear Lady Maya's footsteps before she let out a long breath. Then he hurriedly ran to the door, locked the door behind him, and then went back to bed, took out the letter, and read it by the light:

"To my dear husband,

Where are you? my warriors, my knights. You've been gone for so long, so long. I've been waiting for you, my Darling, I've been waiting for you for so long, so long. My knights, my servants, my squires, they all died, they all died at the hands of that terrible demon, and now I am the only one left. A person, drowning in this lifeless sea of flowers, suffocates me, makes me afraid. I'm afraid, my brave husband, I'm afraid, I'm afraid I'll just be alone forever, I'm afraid I'll never see you again, and our children.

Oh my poor child, I'm sorry for her, my love, I'm sorry for her. I've never dared to tell you, I've never dared to tell you, our child, our daughter, she was killed by me, it's all my fault, oh, it's all my fault. ”

The letter is only written here, and the rest of the content does not seem to have time to be written.

"Oh my God, what did she do to her daughter?" Eve couldn't help but think that she had decided that Lady Maya was a wizard and must have experimented on some strange magic on her daughter to turn her into a frog.

Eve was lying on the bed, and what she had just seen made it difficult for her to sleep, and finally, curiosity overcame the Sandman, and Eve got up from the bed and decided to look for more clues.

Eve quietly opened the door, poked her head out to look at the sides, and made sure that Lady Maya was not there, before she cautiously stepped out and closed the door.

"Hmm...... There's definitely something wrong with that mirror, let's start there!" Eve thought for a moment and decided to see if there was any secret hidden in the suspicious-looking mirror, and she tiptoed to the top floor little by little.

After a few minutes of thrilling journey, Eve finally reached the top floor, and Lady Maya was not there, much to Eve's relief.

"It's strange why there is only such a mirror in such a large room?" Eve walked in, only to find that it was more empty from the inside than from the outside, except for a few candles that were about to go out burning around the mirror, and the rest of the place was pitch black.

But Eve didn't care at all, she curiously walked over to the mirror, which was a huge, ornate life-size mirror, and the three Eves combined were not as tall as it.

Eve looked at the mirror closely, trying to find anything special, but no matter how she looked, she couldn't see anything special.

It occurred to Eve that something special was certainly not easy to see, so she imitated the way Lady Maya had faced the mirror at that time, and just stood there and stared at the mirror without moving.

But she persevered for a while, and then gave up. "It's stupid, it's useless. She patted her head, and then she suddenly noticed that something was wrong - she was not moving with herself in the mirror!

Eve rubbed her eyes, then looked closely at herself in the mirror, and found that she did not move with her, and moreover, she was smiling at herself.

When Eve looked at it and confirmed that the "self" in the mirror was really moving, she said with some excitement: "Hey, me in the mirror, how are you?"

Eve in the mirror tilted her head a little strangely, and then really responded: "You are so strange, child, most people would be scared when they see me for the first time." ”

"Scared? Why, you look funny. Eve said confusedly, she just thought it was funny and funny for herself to talk to herself in the mirror.

"Hehe, thank you, no one has ever complimented me so much. Eve smiled at her in the mirror, and asked, "Who are you?" little girl, I have never seen you before. ”

"Why do you ask? I'm you, Eveluna Falst, Rum Falst's daughter. Eve replied curiously, doesn't she know who she is in the mirror?

"Hehe, I think you're mistaken, Miss Eve, I'm not you, I just look like you, in fact, whoever looks in this mirror will become whoever looks like me. Eve in the mirror explained. "I don't remember my name, but you can call me 'Anna' like Lady Maya. ”

"Hello, Miss Anna, uh, ma'am. Eve hurriedly greeted her, and it was rude to call someone by the wrong name.

"Hello, Miss Eve. Why did you come here? I thought Madame Maya was the only one here. Anna asked politely.

"Oh, I got lost in the forest, and was invited here by Madame Maya, for a while, to stay for a few days. Eve said with some hesitation, thinking it would be better not to talk about her semi-house arrest for the time being.

"Oh, she's such a kind person, though she looks a little fierce. Anna chuckled, and Eve giggled.

"That said, Lady Maya is so fierce, she looks so scary. Eve agrees that Madame Maya didn't make much of a good impression on her.

The two of them had been talking for a while, and Eve remembered what she was here for, and she quickly interrupted the conversation between them, which might never end.

"Ahem, Ms. Anna, can I ask you a few questions?" Eve asked solemnly, calming her excitement.

"Of course, Miss Eve, what is your problem?" replied Anna with a calm expression.

"Well, why are you in the mirror? Can you come out?" Eve thought for a moment, but asked the question she cared about the most.

"I'm sorry, Miss Eve, I don't know. Anna said with a somewhat gloomy expression. "I don't know anything about my past, I can't remember. ”

"Well, then, when did you meet Lady Maya? Eve then asked. She was curious to know more about Madame Maya.

"I think I've known Lady Maya since I became conscious. Anna thought hard. "But Madame Maya never spoke to me, she just stood here quietly, and no matter how much I called her, she did not respond. ”

Eve had to think. "You've confused me, are you saying that Lady Maya didn't know about your existence all along?"

"Yes, Miss Eve, actually, you were the first to speak to me. Anna replied with a smile.

"But, didn't you say that few people see you for the first time and are not frightened, and why am I the first?" Eve felt even more puzzled, and the mystery grew more and more as she explored.

Anna lowered her head, as if trying to remember something. "I'm sorry, Miss Eve, I can't remember why I said that. ”

"Well, what do you remember? Eve asked anxiously, feeling as if Anna didn't know anything at all.

"I ......," Anna's eyes became a little misty. "I, I remember, I have a daughter, a beautiful daughter. ”

"Daughter, do you mean ......" Before Eve could finish speaking, Lady Maya's voice suddenly came from behind her: "Miss Eve, you are really naughty." ”

Eve turned around in surprise and saw Lady Maya with a strange expression on her face, standing at the door of the room.
