Under the silvery moonlight, a large number of golden butterflies fall from the sky and flutter around the castle. The whole forest became quiet, and even the sounds of the animals could not be heard. All the fish in the lake hid deep at the bottom of the lake and never dared to show their faces again.

"Everybody...... What's wrong......" Nanali looked at the forest from afar, her expression confused. In her memory, nothing like this had ever happened before.

The world suddenly became quiet, and the only one who noticed this was Nanali, who always communicated with nature. She noticed as if something was emanating from the castle, shocking the creatures around her.

It was a breath that most people couldn't feel, but it was a very, very scary thing for the little animals and fish, so much so that they all hid.

Nanali suddenly jumped off the wall and hurried as fast as she could to the garden she had built.

There can't be a mistake, it must be "that", the "horrible thing" made by her sister.

Oops, she underestimated her sister's magic too much.

The beautiful butterflies fluttered gracefully in the air, and they were the only ones who were completely unaffected by this breath, only them, no matter how strong the breath was, it would not help.

Because they are them, the children of the Demon King.

............ At this time, the cheerful maids are preparing delicious food for the owner of the castle / Some of them help deliver the ingredients on silver plates, some run along the castle paths with woven fruit baskets, and some are cutting cheese and cakes in the kitchen.

Tonight was the time for a banquet, and although the maids didn't know why Miss Hugo had a sudden banquet, it didn't stop them from doing their own work.

"Hurry up, hurry up, this hundred-year-old white turtle soup is what Miss Hugo wants, has the fire arrived?"

"What about the special spices used to roast lamb chops?

"Okay, the lobster is sliced, put it on a plate and take it. ”

And the busy voices and footsteps of the maids were the only sounds in the castle, and the only thing left was the sound of the wings of the beautiful golden butterflies in the air.

The maids didn't notice such an abnormal phenomenon, but as the host of the banquet, they were also the culprit behind this phenomenon - Miss Hugo naturally saw it all.

"Where did these butterflies come from?" if there was one thing that Miss Hugo had planned, it was the golden butterflies fluttering over the castle. Under the threat of her Great Forbidden Technique, all the lower beings should have run clean long ago.

The Great Curse from the legendary "Lost Ghost Codex" is extremely powerful.

Although this curse is a curse for a specific target, due to the fact that it will be connected to some chaotic realms during casting, it is natural that certain "things" will be leaked, and animals and insects will feel these things much more strongly than humans, and will instinctively stay away from these things.

Human beings, on the contrary, will not be able to feel "them" so easily, because most of them are "people", but they are not living people.

If she wants to kill her disobedient sister, she has performed a very high-level curse technique, and I am afraid that it will attract quite a lot of "them". However, since the designated sacrifice is a "sister", "they" should not attack other humans.

Are these golden butterflies not afraid of "their" breath at all?

"Sure enough!" Nanali looked at the flower tree she had planted with her own hands, and her expression of fear appeared.

There, there were no flowers or trees left, all I could see was a thick fog, and in the mist, there were faint figures moving around.

However, in there, it's definitely not a "human", it's just something that is very close to a person, or still nostalgic for what it was like when it was a human being. They are wandering in that mist, as if nostalgic for the taste of the human world.

The natural magic barrier that Nanali had set up during the day had already been completely destroyed by this gray-white mist, and even a small half of the garden had disappeared into this mist.

It was only a few steps away, but in Nanali's senses, it was a completely different world. From the pit that Miss Hugo dug out and worshipped with her own hands, something is constantly scattering, eroding the real world little by little.

Nanali tried to use her natural magic to stop the spread of the mist, but she failed, her power had no effect on the mist, and she could no longer feel the flowers and trees she had planted with her own hands.

In the mist, several shadows looked at Nanali with eyes that did not have the slightest warmth, and then disappeared into the depths of the mist.

A few curious golden butterflies flew into the mist after the shadows.

However, they soon flew out again, and continued to fly gracefully in the air, showing off their beautiful bodies in the moonlight.

It's just that there is a trace of hazy mist on their wings unconsciously.

"Nanali, what are you still doing here?" Miss Hugo's voice suddenly sounded behind Nanali, startling her.

"Sister, these things!" Nanali looked at her sister with some uneasiness, pointing to the strange mist and the strange shadow that was faintly visible.

"It's just foggy, and it will naturally disappear when the sun comes out, so come with me to the hall, today is a rare banquet. Miss Hugo looked at the miserable white mist, and after a moment of eye contact with a pair of eyes that could not see the slightest anger, she said lightly.

"But......" Nanali tried to argue, but under the terrible eyes of Miss Hugo, she could not say anything.

This kind of look, the first time she saw it in her sister, it was a look that she would never be allowed to refuse.

"It's okay, Nanali is a good boy, you and Paran are different. Listen to my sister once this time, and tomorrow will be the same as usual, and the flowers and plants you like will also come back. Miss Hugo comforted her sister that Nanali would never fight her for Ulysses, so she was relieved of her and did not worry that she would go against her.

"Hmm. In the end, Nanali could not disobey her sister, and after looking at the garden with some concern, which had been eroded by about half of the miserable white mist, she sighed and left with Miss Hugo.

In the silent garden, only the beautiful golden butterflies are left to play with the newcomers to the castle.

............ "Today's dinner is really rich, my sister is preparing it for you." Sitting in a chair that was noticeably one size larger than her body, Paran picked up a crystal clear purple grape with one tail, then skinned it with the other tail and finally brought it to Ulysses' mouth.

After obtaining the complete bloodline of the golden-haired jade-faced nine-tailed fox, Paran is getting used to using his tail to solve problems, all sorts of things. It was a little unaccustomed at first, but after using her tail to tease Ulysses in front of Miss Hugo, she began to love the game.

"Paran, I can eat it myself. Ulysses looked at the peeled transparent grapes in front of him a little depressed, he was not a prince and nobleman somewhere, living a luxurious life of food and clothes.

When he was a part-time mercenary in Taji City, he often slept in the wild and ate food, and even gnawed on the flesh of insects. It was really unpalatable, although the old mercenary Bell who gave it to him said it tasted like chicken, crunchy to bite, and six times more nutritious than beef, but it was not a good memory.

In contrast, the life he has lived in the castle in the past few days is really a luxury, especially the food, all kinds of high-end ingredients make his blood boiling, and when he is alone with Miss Hugo, he is almost unable to control himself many times, if it weren't for the newly learned ice and snow magic to cool himself, he may have committed a crime long ago.

"Eat, eat, don't you think my tail is clean......" Paran looked at Ulysses with aggrieved eyes, and the beautiful golden tail lay limply on Ulysses' hand as if he was being reproached.

Of course, it is impossible to have an unclean tail or something, as the most important symbol and special ability carrier of the golden-haired jade-faced nine-tailed fox, these three tails are the cleanest places on Palan's body. Magic is automatically emitted from the tail at any time, providing protection for Palan twenty-four hours a day.

"Alas. Ulysses sighed, finally having to accept Paran's kindness.

The peeled grapes were sweet, barely sour, and seemed to have a hint of Paran's scent...... "Humph!" Ulysses' delusion was interrupted by Miss Hugo's disgruntled voice, and she stared at Paland's moving tail with cold eyes, and if she had the legendary magic eye, she would have used her eyes to cut off the tail that tempted Ulysses.

"Oh, my sister is here, as the host of the banquet, you are still too late, sister, Ulysses and I are almost eating up the grapes. Picking up a bunch of grapes with the rest of his tail, Palan shook it in front of Miss Hugo as if he were ostentatious.

"It's okay, I'll send you lots and lots of grapes to eat in the future. Miss Hugo looked at her sister with the eyes of a dead man.

After killing her sister, she didn't mind watering the flower tree where her sister was buried with more wine, so that the flower tree could absorb the nutrients of her sister's corpse faster and better, grow tall and big, and bloom more colorful flowers the next spring.

"yes, I'll enjoy it with Ulysses. Paran peeled off another grape and brought it to Ulysses' mouth.

There won't be that kind of opportunity anymore, sister, you just like this grape, obediently disappear...... Looking at the grape that Ulysses had eaten, Paland was just as confident.
