22. The old woman who doesn't choose her words
According to incomplete statistics along the way, during the time when he sat in the carriage with Jace and arrived in the imperial city, the piece of wood sitting on the opposite side secretly looked at himself fifty times out of the corner of his eye, and used the excuse of opening the window to ventilate thirty times, pretending to cough was actually glancing at himself twenty times out of the corner of his eye.
The most frustrating thing is that Jace actually thinks that he has done a good job and has not been discovered by anyone, but he does not know that his obviously abnormal behavior has been clearly seen by Lilith at the first time.
In the final analysis, it is easy to figure out what the reason is, although Lilith is not confident in her appearance and figure, but it is not to the point of looking down on herself, compared to the average person of the same age, she still has a lot of advantages.
It's just that so much has happened since Asmon was summoned, and there is no time to think about that kind of thing between men and women.
The carriage stopped before entering the Imperial City, and Lilith took the opportunity to open the window, and all around it were all waiting, ready to enter the city, judging by the dense Cheng dΓΉ, there were at least dozens of them. It seems that even if you say that you want to keep a low profile, will so many people still come?
"I heard from my father that on the princess's birthday last year, only a few dukes were invited, and no other people were invited. "But this time, it seems that the princess's birthday has invited all the nobles above the earl, and a few nobles with a lower rank have also been fortunate enough to be invited, so I have the honor to be here." β
"So this time is much grander than the last?" Lilith opened the window again, but soon realized a question that had been coiled in her mind since she got into the carriage.
"What about your father? Why isn't he here?"
You wood and yourself are just side goods, and it should be your father who can really enter!
β...... He was in a carriage in front of him, because he said...... That ......"
Well, as a father, I'm afraid he's already done his best.
β...... Ahem, Lilith, you're beautiful today. β
"Ah, thank you. Lilith sighed, "If it weren't for your financial assistance, I wouldn't have been able to dress up like this." β
This guy finally said what he had been holding back all the way, but maybe his father, who had worked so hard for his son's happiness, would be angry to death?
β...... It's true. Seeing that Lilith's attitude was a little negative, and Jace was a little excited to think about why it was different from what was said in the book, "Compared to the ...... you saw in previous years"
"Ah, yes, yes, I know. Lilith looked out the curtain-covered window, "It's just a little bit of a bother." β
Red precognition.
If her sister hadn't done anything wrong and had succeeded in casting the spell, then something related to red would have happened tonight. Moreover, his sister is divining for herself, that is to say, this red thing is going to happen to her.
Drank a glass of red wine and ate a strawberry...... These are all light, and what worries and scares Lilith the most is the blood-related thing.
But the place I'm going to go to now is the Imperial City, and there shouldn't be any bloodshed on me, most of the meaning of this red symbol is just that my white dress was spilled with some red wine.
After several stops and various checks, the carriage finally reached its destination. However, Jace obviously still didn't get used to the interaction that men and women should have, and when he grabbed his wrist, this guy obviously couldn't even walk. I can't imagine how scared this guy would be of a man if it were a woman.
...... Try it at a time next time.
It was nearly 7 o'clock when the dinner party officially began, and before that, the nobles who stayed in the hall had to stand there for nearly two hours, but at this time, the special physique that the nobles all possessed was immediately revealed, and they gathered together like butterflies that had seen flowers, and they did not feel tired and helpless to stand here for two hours.
"Hey, the nobles' communication. β
Lilith was a little helpless, and to be honest, she was a little hungry now because she was in such a hurry. But you can't just eat the food that is obviously used as a decoration, because it doesn't matter if you bring it with you, but Jace will be embarrassed to bring it with you.
"Are you hungry? I'll go get some then. β
Jace was unusually observant at such times, and soon he was back with a small plate of cake. And those aristocrats were busy talking about big things, and no one cared about this little guy who knew what to eat as soon as he came.
"Thank you. Lilith took the plate, found a corner, and began to put the cake to her mouth in the most gentle way she had ever been born, "By the way, Jace, have you ever seen a princess?"
"I've only seen it from afar. Jace replied, "Normally, Her Royal Highness will not appear in front of everyone, and she must be wearing a mask when she appears. β
"Ah, that's right. β
Lilith nodded, since Jace didn't notice the anomaly around him, then there was no need for him to say it.
"That...... Lilith, ...... Today That ......"
After squirming for a while, Jace honestly lowered his head, "Can you go to my house when the dinner is over?"
"What!"
Lilith blurted out, drawing some people's eyes to it at the same time.
This guy didn't even use the date directly, did it directly become an appointment?
"Ahem......" Lilith immediately pulled Jace away from everyone's sight, "Do you know that you can't talk nonsense?"
β...... But my father told me to take a look at you when you were happy. β
That bastard old man!
"Aha, I found you. A childish voice came, but it made Lilith shudder violently, "You two, as students, are still in love, do you want to eat punishment?"
Dean Frey!
I knew she would be here, but why did I have to meet her at such an awkward time.
Dean Frey, who has only a little girl's body, naturally can't wear any low-cut clothes, in that case, I'm afraid that the clothes will fall off directly. I don't know who dressed her up as a doll and sent her over.
And standing next to her is probably her "female companion" this time.
"Lilith. β
Dorana smiled and nodded, although she still couldn't see the obvious expression, but for Lilith, who had been only looking at Dorana with a straight face, this time she was really smiling. Dorana at the dinner party didn't wear the armor that could kill people, but despite wearing her skirt, no one dared to approach her within a few meters of her.
After all, the longsword is not a vegetarian, and although Dorana is much more beautiful than usual when she takes off her armor, there are still no ill-intentioned people to provoke.
"I'm amazed by your pair. Dean Frey was obviously in a good mood today, and even had the spirit to joke with Lilith, "But if you think about it carefully, it's really good, after all, it's still good to have a good relationship with each other." β
Hey, you old woman hasn't been talking since she started. Is the air around you also affecting you?
"Hey, in fact, the dean, I'm still very generous about dating. Frey waved her hand, "Well, as long as you invite me to the wedding, that's it, what do you think?"
This old immortal...... Aren't you even looking at Jace? This guy has clearly misunderstood.
Just when Lilith wondered if she needed to educate this old woman who didn't know what to do, she suddenly found that the eyes of the nobles who were talking around her were obviously focused on each other. Although most of them were women, a chill crept over Lilith's back.
It feels like ......
"Well, I've finally found it. β
You can't go wrong!
This gothic dress, with a top hat on his head and a cane in his hand......
Isn't this Don Quixote who pretended to be a potion before!? Could it be that this time it is the real thing!?
It can't be impossible, how can this kind of character, who is obviously made up by himself, really exist, that is to say, someone who knows the inside story of this matter pretends to be him......
"Dean Frey, we're meeting again. β
β...... Yes...... Well. β
Frey's mouth changed several times with her expression, and finally she blushed and lowered her head.
is all old, and she is still the same as a little girl, so she is really not ashamed.
But who is this Don Quixote? So far, only Lucifer and Sister Anne know.
Sister Anne is naturally impossible to pretend, so that means this guy is Lucifer? But according to her logic, how can she let go of the so-called "dignity" and pretend to be a person who has nothing to do with her?
"You...... Who are you?"
Don Quixote ...... Hello, Sister Lilith. β
...... This blinking eye.
Was it her sister, and how did she get in?
"Hey, what the hell is going on?"
Ignoring Dean Frey's murderous eyes, Lilith pulled Don Quixo aside, "How did you get in and what about the rest?"
"Sure enough, I still can't worry about my sister. "So I'm going to chase after me soon, and with Mamun here, what kind of place can't I get by?"
Marmon?
......
Is that guy here too?
"It's not just Mammon, but Lucifer, who is more worried, has also come, and I don't know why Asmon came with me, but in short, only Sheena and the kittens are left in the house. β
(I'm telling you, I'm going to push it next week.) οΌ
