The slender and sharp shards of glass slit Albert's throat and plunged deep into his neck, and he even felt the touch of an irregular edge scraping against his bones. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Unfortunately, you're not fit for such a thing, Albert. ”

Finally, Albert's ears rang with Charlotte's still gentle voice.

Little by little, his consciousness sank into darkness, and Albert knew what it meant, perhaps because resentment and lust had gone with life, and he wanted to laugh a little.

Knowing that the woman named Charlotte Heberis was a monster with a human skin on her head, it was ridiculous that she thought that even if she was a monster, she could become a weapon if she used it properly...... Stupid.

Watching Charlotte gently thrust the glass shard into Albert's throat with a gentle face, even as a bystander, Lisa still felt shuddered.

Lisa is not unprecedented, there are many people in this world who are more cruel than Charlotte, who may despise life for various reasons, trample on life, or take pleasure in it, but there are few madmen like Charlotte.

If there is anything that Lisa has learned from this time of getting along, it is that for Charlotte, life, country, and the world are meaningless.

So, what exactly does Charlotte want? Lisa, who is not good at resourcefulness, can't figure out why Charlotte is so tired. Presumably Charlotte herself knew that her life would be easier if she could have avoided thinking about issues that didn't have any practical significance, but even if she knew, Charlotte didn't do it, or couldn't do it.

“...... What a trouble-seeking guy. ”

It was just a whisper to herself, but it still didn't seem to escape Charlotte's ears, and the princess, whose hands were covered in blood, looked up at Lisa.

"Were you just talking bad about me?"

It was a direct question, but Lisa certainly wouldn't and couldn't admit it, and she gave Charlotte a blank look.

"I ask you what you're going to do next, for when I approached the palace, the crowd was already on the verge of breaking through, and while the guards were still dutifully holding back the mob, you knew it yourself, they wouldn't be our companions. ”

After a pause, Lisa lifted her chin, as if demonstrating and laughing.

"Don't look at me with that smile, do you want to stick something in my throat too? ”

Hearing Lisa's teasing, Charlotte just shrugged helplessly, and had no intention of changing her smile.

"This smile is a reflection of my true heart, why don't you believe it. ”

- It's even more terrifying. Lisa said silently in her heart, and as for the question of whether she believed or not, she didn't want to answer it at all.

There was no response, Charlotte didn't care, she turned around and walked to the desk, and began to pack some simple necessities, a dagger for self-defense, a map, a certificate for customs clearance and some documents, as for the necessary clothes for girls, they were not paid attention to at all, but some popular jewelry was brought by Charlotte, but not to wear it, but as a guarantee of money to carry it with her in case of emergency.

During this time, a bored Lisa begins to talk to Charlotte again.

"Speaking of which, what you said to Albert sounded like you knew I was coming, but it was just posturing, right?

Although Charlotte's expression could not be seen, Lisa heard Charlotte chuckle.

"Albert is trying to harm me, right? Just don't tease him too much before he dies. ”

Charlotte took it for granted, and Lisa didn't know how to refute it, she opened and closed her mouth, and finally just said something lightly.

"That's a bad idea. ”

"Really, I think I'm gentle. ”

Lisa thought Charlotte's definition of gentleness was strange, but Charlotte herself didn't seem to think so, and she chuckled again.

"And, according to the plan of the man who designed it all, I will not die, because it is in his best interest to live, and to live in a place out of the reach of all, because he needs a reason for everyone to point the finger outward with him. ”

As if laughing, Charlotte's shoulders shook.

"But that guy doesn't seem to be able to take care of me at all, so it's a great favor for you to come. ”

With a little thought, Lisa knew who Charlotte was talking about.

"You're talking about the demon who calls himself a merchant, right?"

Anyone who knows the inside story can easily guess this, after all, whether it is Lisa and Charlotte's acquaintance or the killing of the second prince, there is the shadow of that person in it.

"I knew that demon couldn't be trusted. ”

It may feel a bit of an afterthought, but it's true, but Lisa's suspicion of Mephistopheles is not a well-founded guess, but simply an emotional disgust.

"I hate demons. ”

Charlotte was noncommittal, and she packed everything into an inconspicuous cloth bag, and draped herself over a cloak of black feathers, which was still conspicuous, but at least better than showing her face.

Seeing Charlotte finish cleaning up, Lisa took the lead in taking a step, but at this moment.

"To be honest, I really didn't expect you to come to my rescue. ”

Charlotte stood still, looking at Lisa's back.

"You and I have no real interests involved, if you don't save me, you will be safer, save me, you will be in danger. This is not a trivial matter, but a real stake, just a verbal agreement, and it does not have the binding force that can make you stick to this point, right?"

Lisa stopped and turned around helplessly.

"You're still talking about this?"

Lisa was helpless, it was good that this little princess was smart, but it would be too much if she was smart enough to only be suspicious.

"Just now you asked, why don't you believe you, now, I'll use that sentence to ask you, why can't you trust others?"

While it may be a little unconvincing to say such a thing from the mouth of a man-eating monster, Lisa still has to say it even so.

"You're taking feelings too lightly. ”

Charlotte didn't react to Lisa's words, she just stood there, word for word.

"Rather than an ethereal relationship, a real relationship of interest is more reliable, right? At least you can know what the bond between you and others is. ”

Lisa was stunned, she didn't know how to answer the question, this kind of natural, but sad question.

Lisa didn't need to answer, and as she was silent for a moment, Charlotte smiled.

"I'm kidding. ”

Charlotte's expression under the cloak is unreal because of the shadows, but the smile on the corner of her mouth is so beautiful that it is exciting.
