When Lily returned to the Temple of Silver and Tin, she began to make sure what she would bring with her for tomorrow's trip.

She hummed softly, checking her luggage repeatedly.

In fact, compared to Ewass, Lily is the one who is more excited about traveling. She is really looking forward to the trip.

She has never left Glass Island since she was born – she lived in Lloyd's before joining the Moriarty family; And then she went to the White Queen.

Even before Ivas took her to the Temple of Silver and Tin and asked Isabel for an admission spot on her behalf...... Lily hadn't left Moriarty Manor in years, let alone the White Queen and Glass Island.

It's not that Ivas won't give her a holiday.

It's because Lily will use her rare vacation time to study and enrich herself.

- But it's not because Lily doesn't like to go out.

On the one hand, because she doesn't have much free time, and she is eager to read; And the reason why she wants to study is because she instinctively doesn't want to spend the rest of her life in a mess as an ignorant maid.

From this point of view, it also proves that Lily does have the insatiable blood of Drost in her body.

And on the other hand...... It's because Lily doesn't want to leave Ivas for too long.

It was because she had read a lot of books that she had seen a little more than the other servants. Therefore, she knows that girls who generally work as personal maids are not as lucky as themselves.

There are regular holidays, a good salary, permission to read the master's books, and sometimes to eat together when there are no outsiders, and the master he serves is also so young, intelligent, handsome, and gentle......

Lily knew she was lucky.

So she didn't want to miss out on that luck.

So even on vacation, she was reluctant to leave Moriarty Manor. What if on the day of his vacation, Ivas happens to have something to use himself? What if something happens to Ivus on the day she is not at home? If someone else had taken care of Ivus at that time, would he have stopped being Ivus's personal maid when he returned?

After all, in Avalon, the real bigwigs are generally not worthy of personal maids.

It's like the kind of family heirs, they are almost always personal valets since they were children.

They are stronger and more powerful, can help carry heavy loads, and can also protect their owners. They grew up together, even closer than brothers, and they play together wherever they go. They can work as coachmen, as bodyguards, cooks, assistants, secretaries...... This is more freedom than a personal maid who needs to be beautiful and decent.

Edward had not yet joined the Inspectorate, so he could still inherit the Moriarty family. So Mr. James was a manservant for Edward and a maid for Ivas.

After that, Edward joined the Inspectorate. According to Avalon's rules, after joining the Inspectorate, you can't touch the family business - this is to prevent the abuse of power for personal gain. After all, the main job of the Inspectors is to monitor the various knight families.

Other words.

Lily knew that from that time on, the first heir of the Moriarty family was already Ivace.

And as a male head of the house, he brought a personal maid...... According to the books Lily reads, this would have been ridiculed by people of the same level in Avalon's public social scene. It's basically like saying "I haven't grown up yet, I need a maid to take care of me", or admitting that I don't have a relationship with the opposite sex, and I don't have a decent and good enough lover who can be recognized by the elders in the family.

The knight family of Avalon alone has nearly a hundred, and the number of family masters with maids is more than ten. And they give people the impression that they are basically the type that tends to be gentle and weak.

- Ever since she found out about this, Lily has been very anxious. She was very afraid that as long as she went out, when she came back, she would no longer be Master Eivas's maid, and she might even be kicked out of the Moriarty family, because she was useless......

If it had been the first few years of joining the Moriarty family, she would have been happy. Because that means you're free.

But now she is no longer naïve, and has gradually understood a lot of things - she is alone, without a family, without support, where can she go? Is it like in the book, to marry a man I have never met and loved, to be the wife of a businessman or a scholar?

She didn't even have parents.

If you don't have mom and dad, you don't have a home.

And Mr. James and Eivers, who were so good to her, were her family. Mr. Edward was always old-fashioned and silent, and Miss Yulia was gentle and kind, and they were both kind and good people.

Separation from family is just once. Lily was terrified of being left behind again.

So Lily never dared to go out on vacation; That's why Lily pays attention to maintaining her beauty and etiquette, thirsting for knowledge and showing loyalty. The root cause of all this impulse is the fear that lurks deep in her heart and is not even perceived by herself.

It's like a cat or dog that has been abandoned once, and when it is picked up and raised again, it will become very well-behaved.

- As long as we can stay together.

Lily was genuinely happy when Ivas shared the opportunity to step into the transcendent path.

This means that she will become more useful. It also means that Ivas also values her, and does not see her as a burden that needs to be replaced and makes herself undignified.

And now, Ivas takes her with him even when he travels......

Does this mean that she has become useful? It won't be abandoned again......

After confirming this, the fear in her heart was diluted. The shadow is like a tea brick brewed with hot water, turning into warm, bright and fragrant warm water.

And after being reassured, she subconsciously began to crave more.

As Lily packed her belongings, she began to feel her desires gradually magnified.

I want to monopolize the young master, I want to love him, I want to love him hard.

Want...... Eat him. I want to suck his blood and chew his flesh......

As she imagined in her mind, her pupils grew scarlet. The breathing gradually became heavier, and the heartbeat became more intense, and the heartbeat became so loud and loud in the ears.

“…… Hey? ”

Lily paused suddenly, her eyes widening slightly in surprise.

Her power to adapt to the path suddenly calmed her down.

"Why ......"

She was surprised that she had suddenly begun to think cranky.

At this moment, Lily suddenly felt a subtle abnormality coming from the room.

She followed the faint impulse in her heart and walked over.

I found out that it was the birdcage that the young master kept on his desk during the day.

The birdcage was supposed to be a book inside. It was the "Morning Dark Secret" that the young master read a few days ago, when the young master read this book, his clothes were still burned off, and his hair became longer after that.

- But.

Lily's eyes widened suddenly, and her heart palpitated for a moment: "Book...... It's gone? ”

I saw that the book in the birdcage was gone, and it turned into a snow-white rabbit.

The rabbit's scarlet gaze stared at her motionlessly, making Lily feel a little uneasy.

But what really made her anxious was that the young master's secret book was missing.

"Damn, how could it be ......"

Lily subconsciously walked over to check if the rabbit had sat the book under her ass.

But when she approached the rabbit, she suddenly hallucinated in front of her—

She saw the cage suddenly open and the rabbit leap out of it.

The world around her instantly turned into snow - she was not in the room, but in the deep snowy night.

The rabbit glanced at her in front of her, then ran forward.

"Don't run!"

Lily's heart swelled with intense irritability and rage, and her reason vanished without a trace.

She didn't realize how abnormal this snowy night was, but subconsciously chased after her: "Come back quickly!" ”
