Section 82 Future
Léa was startled, and when she turned her head, she saw Scarlet leaning against the wall in a leisurely position.
"It's you...... Why are you here?"
"I'm Duke Scarlet's guard, so there's nothing surprising about being on duty for him here, right?" Scarlet replied coldly, a dangerous glint flashing in her eyes. "But you, why do you sleep in this bed?"
"Are you jealous?" asked Leia, steady, straightening up.
"Jealous? What a strange statement, why should I be jealous of you?" scarlet laughed. "But in terms of your ability to seduce men, you're really the best of the sluts. Today in the baths, and the host...... Did you have a lot of fun?"
"You...... You...... How ......" Leia felt an uncontrollable heat in her cheeks.
"How do I know the way? Of course I know the way. Your voice is so loud that anyone hears it unless you are deaf. Scarlet replied in a dismissive tone. The sneer in her voice was so strong that Léa's face instantly turned red to the base of her ears.
"Who would be jealous of you, just because you have no breasts and no ass...... Hmph...... "Scarlet eyes slanted, and the arrogance that flowed from the corners of his eyes was better than any woman could put into words.
"But the Duke just likes me!" replied Léa in a loud voice. Her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, clenched tightly, her nails digging deep into the flesh. "Every man's hobbies are different, and it just so happens that I'm the type he likes. If you don't believe him, try to seduce him. ”
"Why am I trying to seduce him?" this time, Scarlet stared at Leia in front of her with a fierce gaze. Every time she looked at each other like this in the past, it made Léa feel visibly terrified. But this time, Leia's face was flushed, but she didn't have any intention of backing down.
"If you can't eat grapes, you can't say grapes are sour, right?" said Léa in a deliberately contrived tone. "I know you like the Duke, but he doesn't like you. Do you feel like a failure as a woman?"
"Joke, why do I want to like him?" Scarlet tried to keep herself calm. "He's a vampire, and the word 'vampire' isn't coined, it's literal. He's—will—drink—human—blood—and he only likes to drink the blood of beautiful girls, which is not a lie I made up. Don't look at him now that he is lying on his bed, who knows when he will suck your blood!"
"Oh, what are you here for?"
"I'm here because I made a deal with him, and I traded my freedom for strength ......"
"So you're here, waiting for him to suck your blood at some point?" asked Leia, in the same tone as the other party had just spoken. "He didn't put a chain around your neck, so why didn't you stay here? If the Duke is present now and can't leave, there was nothing here to stop you from leaving some time ago. ”
"I ......"
"Well, I can't tell. He just likes the way I look!" Leia puffed out her chest with pride.
"Like?" Scarlet repeated, "Like......?" Haha......ha She stopped laughing, "He can't even give you the status of a concubine, you actually think he likes you?
Talking too loudly, did she even overhear this kind of thing?Leia froze in her heart. But she immediately plucked up her courage again, it doesn't matter, you don't lose if you lose. No matter what, this time you can't admit defeat in front of this woman.
"It has nothing to do with him liking me. He had other concerns, not because he didn't like me. Like the girls down there, he didn't want to hurt them, just because of some concern. Still," she replied in a teasing tone. "A female orangutan like you who came out of the jungle doesn't know what a man really thinks. I will just stand on my own side and make some stupid judgments. ”
"No wonder he doesn't like you. Not even the most basic gentleness and thoughtfulness of a woman...... No wonder it's only unrequited love......" Her voice stopped, as Scarlet grabbed the collar of her pajamas with her hand and strangled her throat.
Just when she said the last word just now, Scarlet rushed over. Scarlet's movements are as graceful and swift as a female leopard, and her movements are so fast that she grabs Leia before she can dodge. Scarlet's body was originally half a head taller than Leiya, and her strength far exceeded that of the other party. Scarlet only used one hand, and Leia was completely suppressed.
The expression on Scarlet's face made it clear that this was not a joke.
"What are you doing?" another voice said. Scarlet turned her head sideways, and what she saw was Mimilu. Due to Mimilu's talent for changing color and stealing, and because her attention was completely attracted to Leia just now, she didn't find out when Mimilu came here at all.
Scarlet slowly let go of his hand and let go of the other party. Léa took a few steps back, almost falling to the ground, leaning against the wall at the least.
"You should be glad that the Scarlet Duke is in the castle now. Scarlet's voice was cold. With that, she turned and walked back. The armor on her body changed color slightly with each step she took, and at last it melted into the shadows completely, never to be seen again.
"Leia, you're okay, are you?" Seeing Scarlet leave, Mimilu hurriedly rushed up to greet her.
"It's fine. Léa touched her strangled neck. "Mimilu, why didn't you sleep?"
"I went up to the top floor with my master to look at the stars. Mimilu replied. But although this matter doesn't seem like a bad thing at all, there is a little frustration between Mimilu's expressions.
"Where's the Duke?"
"He's still behind. Mimilu replied. I don't know why, at the mention of Ashrufat, her mood was further depressed. Mimilu went to sleep. Without waiting for Léa to speak, she ran forward on all fours, and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
"Mimilu......" Leia tried to stop Mimilu, but it was too late. Then she heard footsteps behind her, not the light footsteps of Scarlet, but the footsteps of a man, heavier and more stable.
"Léa. Ashruphat squealed softly. "You're up?"
"Lord Duke, I'm awake...... Discover your ......"
"I'm sorry, I got up and accompanied Mimilu to the top of the tower to look at the stars for a while. Ashrufat replied. "What's wrong with you? What's going on here?"
"Me and Scarlet...... Said a conversation. ”
"Scarlet, she didn't sleep?" Ashrufat asked curiously. At this time, Carrie interjected in her head.
"Master, after the transformation, Scarlet's sleep time is only one-tenth of that of ordinary people. So it's normal for her to be active now. I said, master, you don't care too much about your servant. I thought you already knew the truth. ”
Léa lay back on the bed, and Ashrufat lay beside her. Scarlet only needs one-tenth of the sleep time of ordinary people, but Ashrufat goes one step further, he doesn't need sleep at all. But he can also maintain a dreamless light sleep if he wants.
"What did Scarlet tell you just now?" Ashruphat asked in a seemingly casual tone.
"Something ordinary...... Leia said hesitantly, but she immediately gave up on ending the matter with a lie. "I had a fight with her. "Or rather, the first face-to-face battle. It was a war between women. She didn't know if she had lost or won.
"For what?" he replied. "She's strong and maybe will hurt you. ”
"No, it won't. "The first time I met her, I knew it. She whispered in her heart. She could no longer see the thread of fate, let alone interpret it. But she remembered what she had seen in the past.
"How did you wake up?" asked Ashrufat again.
"I had nightmares. Léa replied. Why did she have such a dream? She had even forgotten exactly when this unknown nightmare began to haunt her.
"What kind of nightmare?"
Leia leaned closer to the other, resting her head on the other's shoulder, as gently as a bird or a kitten. "I forgot. She replied in a soft, but happy, voice. Then she fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up, it was late. The sunlight from the window was shining into the bedroom, and her clothes were neatly arranged next to the bed. She got dressed and walked into the bathroom on the side. The castle is magically magical, and when one walks to the edge of the stone basin, water flows out of a metal pipe. In addition, the commode is also very bizarre, washing away the excrement with a stream of water, leaving almost no odor.
"Miss Léa," she heard Carrie's voice as she finished washing, and with that sound, a glittering metal ball floated in front of her. "Want to have breakfast?"
"What about the Duke?" she asked.
"The master has left. But he'll be back in a few days. Carrie replied. "I suggest you think about the early days. If you don't have any special requirements, then let's go for the old one. Dine at the restaurant. ”
The castle's restaurant is huge, but it's actually just too big. Enough for fifty people to dine together. When she sat down, she was surprised to find that Scarlet was also eating there. Scarlet's attitude towards her today is very cold, even more cold than usual, to the point of turning a blind eye.
When Leia walked past Scarlet, Scarlet didn't even move her eyelids, just eating a frozen chicken and drinking red wine to accompany her meal. Léa remembers that in the past, if they met in a restaurant, Scarlet would at least snort with her nose to show her disdain. But Leia knew that the other party was paying attention to herself, paying attention to her every move.
"If you wear armor all day, you can't get the attention of the opposite sex. Leia said tentatively. In exchange for a violent sound of chewing bones.
"Well, Miss Leia, I actually have a commission that I want you to accept. Carrie floated up to her and said suddenly.
