Chapter 204: A Message of Failure
When she woke up the next day, Beth smelled a strong smell of alcohol and hormones. It wasn't until she flipped over and touched Edge that she noticed that she and Edgee were both naked.
When I lifted the quilt, there was another strong smell of hormones. Looking at the quilts, sheets, and her own body, Beth found that these were all stained with the 'traces' of post-sex that had been solidified.
Strangely, in the face of this situation, there is no doubt that Beth knew that she had sex with Age last night, but she was not surprised, nor was she annoyed with Age.
She didn't feel aggrieved and treated it calmly, and Beth accepted it calmly.
Looking at Aiji, who was still asleep, she suddenly laughed, reached out to touch Aiji's face, and said softly: "Really, it looks like a big man, but he can't even drink wine." ”
After a little rest, Beth got out of bed and prepared to wash up. The luxurious room is so convenient, the bathroom or something is integrated.
"Miss Bess, Miss Bess, Miss Bess!"
As soon as Beth tried to wash up, there was a knock on the door outside the room, and the knock was extremely urgent, as if something big had happened.
Hearing such a tight knock on the door, Beth frowned, extremely displeased. I drank a lot of wine last night, had sex again, my body was exhausted, and when she woke up in the morning and was disturbed like this, she was in a very bad mood, and she couldn't help but walk to the door with a black face, and hummed: "Say something quickly!"
"That...... Miss Bessy, Mentor Tile Claw says he's received a magic letter from Master Jericho, waiting for you to check it. Listen to them...... Something seems to have gone wrong......"
"What?!" Hearing that something was wrong, Beth was shocked and whispered, "You go down first, I'll go over soon!"
"Yes, Miss Bess!" the man outside the door was presumably a guard, and when Bez replied, he immediately retreated.
Bessie's face was very bad, so she hurriedly went to wash up, returned to the bedside, and picked out a new set of clothes to wear. Before leaving, she glanced at Edge, who was still still awake. Seeing Age's dead expression, occasionally blinking and frowning, her heart suddenly warmed, and she walked up to kiss Age's forehead, and then covered Age's quilt.
She never expected that just a little experience last night would cause her to have an unprecedented affection for Edge.
Of course, she didn't feel like it was love.
In the past, she would directly regard the relationship with Edge last night as a one-night stand. And now she didn't treat her relationship with Age as a one-night stand. She discovers that there is a trait in Aggie that the men around her do not have. She has a slight crush on Edge. This is what sets Edge apart from the men she has had relationships with in the past.
Maybe...... Beth doesn't deny her thoughts, she wants to take Edge as her lover. A lover who is not like a passerby, a lover who can accompany her silently and let her enjoy the feeling of having a man by her side.
Because she is already Rice's fiancée, even if she is really in love with Age, it is impossible for her to be with Edge, so she can only let Eggie be her lover. What's more, she didn't feel like she was in love with Age.
Lovers are not lovers, they don't need any love, as long as there is a little affection.
Beth didn't expect much.
She was used to living in the circle of the upper nobility, and some things she had become numb. For lovers, she doesn't want to keep just a puppet to satisfy the body. Even a little bit of affection is fine.
She plans to tell Age about this when she wakes up, and she wants Age to be her lover.
If Aggie agrees to be her lover, she will reward Aggie handsomely. Coins? Feel free to open your mouth as many as you want. As long as it is not excessive, it can help to get it.
After putting the quilt on Edge, Beth left the room. She also knew she was doing something crazy and asking Edge's lover, and she didn't even know Edge's name.
Arriving at the Grand Hall of the Merchant Marine, Beth returned to the style of the strong woman she used to be.
The hall had already gathered a group of famous nobles from yesterday, and when they saw Bessy, they all greeted her, treating Bess as a lifesaver. Beth was disgusted with them, but because of the relationship between her family and the need to assert her authority, she held back and greeted them with a far-fetched smile.
At this moment an old man with gray hair came out and saluted Beth respectfully. He's a powerful space mage, and he's also the Tile Claw Mentor mentioned by the guard who came to call Bess.
The matter of magic letters is the responsibility of the Tile Claw Mentor.
"I heard the person who came to report just now tell me what happened, what is going on?" asked Bess with a serious expression.
Tile Paw was silent for a moment before he said with a low face, "Miss Bessy, this is not good news. ”
"Just now, I received a magic letter from Master Jericho, which said that the mobile magic sent by Master Jericho to find someone for help a few days ago was intercepted. And the person who intercepted it didn't give the lord any reply, and the lord really didn't know what was going on, so he could only treat the matter of asking for help as a failure......"
"In other words, what Master Jericho said, asking for help from the escorts he knew in the nearby seas...... has failed. Tile Paw said heavily, to Beth.
When Biss heard this, her body trembled, and she failed? Grandpa failed to find a thing to ask for help? How could it be? How could it be? I looked forward to this as the only way now, but it failed?!
"How can this be? Oh my God, ...... That...... Aren't we hopeless?......"
"What to do, Miss Bessy...... Miss Bessie......"
When the nobles present heard Waclaw's words, they all panicked and looked at Bess one after another. They were expecting such from Beth that if Beth couldn't solve it, they didn't know of any other way to deal with being besieged by pirates.
At this moment, Bessy's mood was extremely depressed, and the panic and pressure in her heart were so panicked that she couldn't breathe.
Seeing those nobles who would only panic when something happened, she really wanted to scold them for being a waste and a stupid pig! As a nobleman, she seemed so flustered when she encountered difficulties, she would not think of a way by herself and would only rely on others...... It's ridiculous! This is also worthy of being called aristocracy?!
"What else can I do?!" I really couldn't stand it, and Bis snorted fiercely: "Order down, let the soldiers on the warship prepare for battle, and if the situation is not right, immediately attack the pirates." ”
"We ...... You can't surrender to the pirates even if you die!" Bess's eyes were cold, and she whispered viciously.
Everyone was stunned by Bessi's momentum and didn't dare to speak for a while. It's rare to see Bezy so angry, even she does, which shows how much pressure the siege of the pirate horde puts on them.
Beth eased her anger, closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths, then opened her eyes and said, "Go to the warship and have a look, lest there be an accident when you need to go out." ”
With that, Bezy shook her head regardless of everyone's reaction.
