Chapter 22: Sebas
"Hey! Alicia, I don't think it needs to be cleaned yet, you can go straight to the second floor and sweep his room! Cassifer shouted.
But Alicia clearly didn't bother to pay attention to him.
While he was cleaning, there was a banging knock on the door, and Cassifer shouted as he burst into flames.
"The gate of the imperial capital!"
But then, he sneezed heavily, and a cloud of sparks splashed out.
Alicia glanced through the dust raised, and the door opened automatically with a jingle of bells.....
Behind the door was a young man dressed in black, with long black hair simply tied behind him, an imperceptible scar on his forehead that looked like stitches, a bag in his hand, and a high hat.
Even though the dust was flying around at the moment, Alicia could smell a dead man's smell in the air.
If Char were here at the moment, he would be able to recognize this person as the apprentice Grim Reaper he had seen not long ago, Sebas.
Cassifer obviously knew him, too, and would not have let him in.
"Hello." Sebas smiled awkwardly but politely, gently wiping his nose, which was a little itchy from the dust wafting in the air.
He looked around the room, then at the old man who was cleaning.
"Looks like I'm not here at the right time."
"As you can see." Cassifer said to him, "This crazy woman is going crazy. ”
Sebas turned his attention to Cassifer on the hearth, and he recognized it almost instantaneously as a demon, but a demon he had never seen before, which should be rare.
However, he had already learned from the Nightmare that the owner of the house had raised a demon, and that was nothing, and some powerful people always liked to keep strange pets.
For example, in the past, Hades raised a three-headed dog of hell, and compared to that thing, this flame is much cuter.
"Is Char-sama here?" Sebas asked.
"Upstairs, I'm probably reading." Cassifer said, "You can go up to him." ”
"But... May I? Sebas was a little flattered.
Although there is no specific custom, the second floor of a house like this is generally a place where only relatives and friends can go up.
"Why not?" Cassifer was a little strange, "Aren't you looking for him?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Sebas nodded his head and walked into the room.
He looked at Alicia, who could be in that adult's room would not be ordinary people, so he didn't dare to slack off at all, but nodded respectfully at her.
"Hello, my name is Sebas."
"My name is Alicia." Alicia nodded.
"You're so diligent when you get up so early in the morning to clean up." Sebas complimented.
"No way." Alicia sighed, "You can't expect a fire to clean up with someone who made this place like this. ”
Sebas raised his eyebrows, because he was a little too reserved, and he didn't know how to answer.
After a moment, he smiled awkwardly.
"Then I'll go up first."
Then, I walked up the stairs.
Alicia looked curiously at Sebas's back as he walked up the stairs.
"Cassifah, is he also a wizard?"
"It's not." Cassifer said.
Alicia breathed a sigh of relief, since she met the Witch of the Wilderness, she had a bit of a psychological shadow about wizards.
Moreover, there is always a chilling feeling when staying around this person.
Of course, Char is also a wizard, but he is an exception.
But then, she heard Cassifer say.
"It's the Grim Reaper."
Alicia was stunned, she suspected that she had misheard, and looked at Cassifer in disbelief.
"Wh.... What? ”
"I think my English is pretty standard." Cassifer said.
"Is it the one I've heard?" Alicia was still a little incredulous.
Cassifer crackled and laughed, "If you don't know the second Grim Reaper." ”
Alicia was a little flustered and said, "Are you here to take me away?" ”
"What do you think?"
Alicia reminisced about seeing the Grim Reaper......
Carrying something, his expression was restrained and apprehensive, not like he had come to harvest his soul.
It's more like visiting a respected elder.
Speaking of which, as soon as he opened the door, he asked where Char was, and he called him "adult.....
Alicia remembered the respectful way Sebas had shown her just now.
She had long been accustomed to being treated with respect, so she didn't feel anything wrong at all just now.
But now that I think about it, this is not a palace, and I am no longer the noble third princess, just an old woman who is old and hunched, and half a foot in the grave.
The reason why that person is like this to himself can only be because of Char.
Thinking of this, Alicia couldn't help but ask.
"Char, who the hell is it?
Why is even an existence like the Grim Reaper so in awe of him, is he really a wizard? ”
"You can go up and ask yourself, but chances he won't tell you." Cassifer said.
For some reason, Alicia's mood suddenly turned bad, and she vented her irritation on cleaning.
She sprinkled water from the sink to reduce the dust, and Cassifer flinched, and she began to sweep the ground again, and all the centipedes, rats, spiders, and cockroaches fled in panic with her movements.
Alicia was not afraid, she banged on the floor with her broom and shouted, "You filthy things, get out of here for me!" ”
She swept the garbage and dust out the door, and the flying dust caused Cassif to cough violently again.
Calcifer cowered in the hearth and muttered, "Fate, what a terrible thing....."
The movement downstairs is inaudible upstairs, and Char casts a soundproof magic.
Sebas cautiously walked upstairs and saw Char almost immediately.
Up the stairs was a short hallway, with about three or four doors, and the one on the right was open to a small balcony.
Through the door, the green mountains and green water moved slowly in front of his eyes, no, or rather, it was like the whole room was moving.
Sebas heard the roar of some kind of giant moving object.
It's definitely not the imperial capital outside, Sebas thought to himself, but he wasn't surprised, with that kind of existence, it was naturally easy to distort space.
To be honest, he didn't really want to come, but he couldn't sleep at the thought of having such a presence in his jurisdiction.
In order to work smoothly in the future, he still feels that he has to come to visit and say hello, which is commonly known as "worship the pier".
And on that balcony, Char sat on a chair, lazily leaning on the backrest, a little golden light swaying at his feet, taking advantage of the sunlight, quietly looking at a simple magic book.
As if sensing Sebas's arrival, Char closed the book and looked at him.....
