z, I feel so sad
The lion eagle flapped its wings, its iron-like feathers were like sharp blades, and the edges of its black and translucent feathers scraped against the window frame. Amidst the flying wood chips, the carvings on it were completely destroyed. It stared at the alchemist in front of it with its unruly little eyes, and let out a threatening scream from its throat. [com]
"Shut up. Don't scream." Leo shouted angrily at the beast in front of him. With his restored left hand, he grabbed a piece of fresh meat that he had prepared and threw it to the gryphon's feet. "Eat it. Damn it, you are just like a greedy businessman who won't let go until you get something. I hate transactions." He cursed in annoyance, watching the thick gray-white mane on the gryphon's neck being quickly stained with blood. Red, then the smart beast turned its head and raised its leg with a bamboo tube tied to it.
A bamboo tube painted black. Black birds bring black news. The alchemist hopes things won't be so bad. He opened the mailbox and threw another piece of meat to the griffon. "Wait here, don't run around." He warned the beast.
Miss Bachelor opened the door and walked in, holding in her hand the dress that the tailor had finished making.
"A gryphon?" She stopped and the gryphon raised its head, opened its sharp beak and roared at her.
"Quiet!" Leo shouted impatiently.
The griffon whined and buried its head in eating the reward specially prepared for it. Minced meat and blood flew everywhere, covering the window sill.
"How could it-"
"This annoying thing is a messenger. It is more reassuring than a pigeon."
"Messenger?" Miss Bachelor moved slowly and put her clothes on the bed with some worry. Only then did she notice a thin piece of parchment in the alchemist's hand, "Whose letter is it?"
"Nigel."
"who?"
"Ansel."
"It's him?" Miss Bachelor said in surprise, "Didn't he leave already? Are you still in contact with him?"
"We occasionally contact each other, but usually we don't need this big guy." Leo explained, "He has been here for a long time and knows more than a bunch of secrets. And, most importantly, he is willing to help us. Although that is Because of Rosie.¡±
"How can he help?"
"For example, the rumors that have been circulating for a long time, and the worshipers of the Black Sun that he spent seven years tracking." The alchemist looked at the densely packed letters in his hand, looking for key information. "There is also the Mother of the Desert, Clegg's sacrificial ritual. After all, no one can know everything. Asking experts for advice is the best option. Of course, there are some taboo spells-"
"¡ª¡ªDemon bloodline?"
Leo handed the letter to Miss Bachelor, "Everything is in the letter."
"Then how did he contact you?" Miss Bachelor asked confusedly as she took the letter that had been soaked in potion and became stoic, "How did he know you were here?"
"Magicians always have other methods. Either bribe them or seduce them." Leo teased the gryphon and scratched its bloody mane. "Or tame it. What's more convenient is spells."
Miss Bachelor stopped talking and focused all her attention on the letter. The expressions on her face varied and finally settled on an expression of fear and anxiety. "This is simply I never knew that this is incredible." Miss Bachelor said, "And it's shocking how could they"
¡°For a fanatical believer, nothing is impossible.¡±
"She doesn't look like¡ª¡ª"
"I think there is nothing more like her." Only that kind of person would say such words nonchalantly, indifferent to everything, as if she was born to please her god - even if it is an elusive demon. The alchemist could not see any doubt in her body, in her eyes, or even in her soul. Her faith is purer andimpeccable than that of the monks in the Sanctuary of Silence. "She's more dangerous than a fanatic."
"Okay, okay." Miss Bachelor said as if she was giving in. Her long sigh seemed to contain too many things that could not be expressed clearly in words. "Then what do you do with it?" She raised the letter in her hand.
Leo took it and walked towards the candle stand by the window. "Burn it and never mention it again." He watched the flames ignite the letter, the flames rising higher and higher, and the paper turned to ashes in his hands. "Nigel is just giving advice, but the choice is ours."
"We have no choice."
"Actually, there are."
"I never knew." Miss Bachelor's tone suddenly changedDe Feng said, "You don't seem to have rejected the other party."
He refused, but to no avail. "These are not the choices I'm talking about."
"What is that? You'd better give us an explanation as soon as possible." Miss Bachelor pointed to the clothes on the bed, "The dress has been made. If you don't want anything to go wrong at tonight's engagement banquet, you'd better explain it clearly. Make it clear. Otherwise I don't think I can control Rosie. She's going crazy."
"She wanted to kill Aurora¡ª¡ª"
"Arora, what you call is so kind." A strange voice came from the door. He turned his head and found the female mage leaning on the door frame with her arms folded, looking at him with a sneer on her face, "I think you can call her more affectionate, such as 'my love'."
He frowned, "Rosie!"
"What's the matter, does this make you angry? You are really defending that bitch." Rosie walked in, and the door made a loud bang. "Have you forgotten your old love when you have a new love?"
"I've already explained it to you."
Rosie walked up to him, ignoring Miss Bachelor¡¯s persuasion. She maintained her mocking smile and whistled at him. "Threats work really well for you," she said. "It makes you so impatient."
Is it possible for me to watch you die? Leo stared at her without speaking.
At first, the female mage looked at him without flinching, but after a moment, she looked away as if she was hurt and lowered her head. She cursed softly, "Hell, it's me who needs comfort now. Don't act like you're hurt. Do you still want me to comfort you?" There was a hint of crying in her voice, "Don't you know that women are all Are you an unreasonable animal? Especially me. I especially can¡¯t stand you like this. It seems like I will kill you"
The alchemist suddenly felt at a loss. He reached out his hand and tried to hold Rosie's shoulder, but she shook her hand away. She lowered her head and her shoulders trembled slightly, as if she didn't want him to see her fragile look. Leo looked at Miss Bachelor for help. However, her eyes were also full of reproach and she glared at him.
The words of apology were in his mouth for a long time before he hesitated and said "Sorry".
"I don't need it." Rosie growled angrily.
The alchemist didn't know what to say, but he had to say something. If Rosie hadn't recovered yet, he would have no doubt that she would have come to fight with Aurora. "I don't know what to say, butit's not our turn to choose." He can be Nianta's backing, give her advice, and let her do what she wants. But what about himself? He has to think carefully, and his impulse will only bring bitter and heavy fruits. "I don't have the guts to say no."
"I know that. We all know it."
"Sorry." He repeated again.
"What's the use of saying sorry? It can't change the situation." Rosie snorted, but her mood stabilized. She wiped her eyes quickly and raised her head. Her eyes were red and there were tears on her face. Leo was surprised that she actually cried. Guilt washed over him and consumed him completely.
"It's so ugly." He squeezed out a weak sentence, which was neither an apology nor a joke.
"None of your business!" she cursed.
"Don't say bad words, Rosie." Miss Maester reminded her, and then she looked at the Alchemist and said to him seriously and seriously, "We have to know what your plans are, Leo. All our differences, accusations, and Your dissatisfaction all comes from your concealment." Miss Bachelor pointed out unceremoniously, "Many times, Leo, too many times -"
"¡ª¡ªJust like Lu Yuewu." The female mage took over. Leo couldn't refute, he lowered his eyes and listened to their turns of trial. "Keep your head up like a man. Damn it, you should be glad that we are different from that cheapskate. Otherwise you would be a loner now. Who would care about your life or death."
"I know¡ª¡ª"
"You know shit!" Rosie interrupted him angrily, "If you knew, you wouldn't be vague to us. It seems that we are all long-tongued women who will spread your secrets everywhere. From the bottom of your heart, you You don¡¯t believe us at all, do you?¡±
How can this be? "Why do you think so?"
"Because I don't see what you have done to regard us as partners you can rely on, your friends, and your lovers!" Rosie shouted loudly. Tears filled her eyes again, extinguishing all the anger welling up in Leo's heart and making all his rebuttals choke in his throat. "Because you always think that you are the savior of God! Damn it, I've almost had enough." She turned around and left.
Leo didn¡¯t have time to think. HeHis hands went over and grabbed her tightly, holding her tightly in his arms. "Let me go!" She kicked around in his arms like an angry female leopard, clawing and biting. "Dammit, let go!"
How can you be obedient at this time? How could he let go? Letting go means losing. He remained silent and allowed the female mage to punch and kick him. He endured the pain from everywhere in his body, buried his head in her neck, and waited patiently for her to calm down. "I just don't want this pressure to be shared with you-"
Rosie was just calm for a few seconds. She sneered in the alchemist's arms, "-Even if you make a wrong decision, let everyone die because of the stupid mistake you made?" She said loudly, "You are just like that crazy person who doesn't care about anything. Just like the oriental women! Do you need me to give you a slap in the face before you wake up?"
"Have you ever beaten Lu Yuewu?"
The female mage admitted with a sneer, "Yes, she almost killed me. We don't owe each other anything."
when did it happen? He was a little at a loss. "II don't know."
Rosie pushed him away. "How did you know? You were drunk and you were in love with Iweila!" She was almost blinded by jealousy. Is she still trying to expand the war circle? "Rosie!" Miss Bachelor screamed. But that didn't stop her at all. "¡ª¡ªBecause your eyes are always staring at that woman lustfully! Your Aurora."
"Rosie!" The alchemist's anger was suddenly rekindled. "You can go further, female mage! But who do you think will listen to your nonsense and believe your fabricated slander?"
The female mage stared at him with a tense face, her amber eyes flashing with anger. But suddenly, everything completely disappeared like a repelled illusion. Her face was filled with dazzling light. "Since you have a clear conscience, what else do you dare not say?" She said softly, glancing at him sideways, "One person is short-sighted, and two people are wise. You don't know it."
"It has never been your character to sit still and wait for death." Miss Bachelor said sarcastically.
The gryphon let out a scream.
Rosie snorted, "Although it's usually a death struggle."
Having been with her for a long time, the alchemist has long since learned to ignore her sometimes sarcastic remarks. This was her, the real, touchable lover, the woman who suddenly said "marriage" for strange reasons could never replace her. He had to make them understand this, reassure them, be patient, and wait for the opportunity.
Leo took a breath and made up his mind. "I'll tell you all."
"Okay, I'm all ears." Rosie said disdainfully, "But you'd better not think you can fool her."
Since the decision has been made, why should he hide it anymore? So he revealed his plans that he had not yet completely reached consummation and still had fatal flaws
"Oh, hell!" Ms. Bachelor gasped, staring at Leo in shock, "You are simply crazy doing this, doing this -"
However, the female mage looked excited. She was eager to try and couldn't wait. She grabbed Leo's sleeve, "This is really bold." She couldn't hide her excitement, "But I love this plan so much. I can't wait!"
¡î
The throne room was brightly lit and crowded with people, almost all of them nobles and rich people. They come dressed up and sprayed with perfume. The rich aroma irritates the nasal cavity and makes people just want to sneeze.
"Good evening, my dear lady." A fat businessman who pretended to be a gentleman and had five rings on his fingers shook his fat body like a giant rat sleeping in a granary. "Can I buy you a drink?"
The lady in the tutu looked disdainfully at the fat man and winked at the young nobleman. "Sir Sir."
The young nobleman seemed unable to resist the lady's teasing. He almost without hesitation agreed to the woman whose face was covered with makeup and her black skin was almost completely painted white.
However, this did not attract the attention of the alchemist at all. He watched the various creatures in the throne room with cold eyes, treating each other as animals in a cage. Because they all have dark skin, like chimpanzees.
"Prince Patton is here." The attendant shouted loudly in a long voice.
The short, fat and bald Prince Barton appeared in the throne room dragging a crimson cloak. Nianta held the former's arm with a face full of reluctance. Her eyes searched the crowd. It wasn't until she saw the alchemist that she breathed a sigh of relief and put a smile on her face again. At this time, a gorgeously dressed lady, who must have been extremely beautiful in the eyes of the Varians, came forward. She seemed to be spitting at Nianta, and at the same timeHe squeezed out a false smile and tried to please the idiot prince, but the end result was that the woman was carried and thrown out of the hall by the guards.
Listening to her cursing, begging for mercy and screams, the alchemist shrugged and took it as a joke.
"Leo."
A woman's calm voice sounded in his ears. The alchemist turned his head and saw the female magician standing behind him, her golden eyes smiling. "Aurora¡ª¡ª"
The girls around me made no secret of their hostility. Even Lu Yuewu couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes. Even if she knew the reason and all his reasons, she would still be angry. "I won't hinder you anymore." She said, turning around and leaving without any hesitation.
The female mage looked at the female mage coldly. "Ha, who did I think it was? It turned out to be a shameless old woman." She sneered, clicking her tongue. "You're still wearing your black veil, is your face really covered with abscesses?"
Aurora looked at her sideways, "Even that has nothing to do with you."
"Hey, didn't you propose yourself to be our sister? But even now you don't dare to show your true face." Rosie suppressed her anger, like a volcano that had been brewing for a long time. "I really doubt how sincere you are."
The female magician was unmoved, "I am the one getting engaged, not you."
"Yeah, I remember it clearly." Rosie said, "And she even boasted that she was willing to share bitch."
Aurora stared at Rosie for a long time with squinted eyes, and Leo suddenly felt the flow of wind. "But you are looking forward to this in your heart. Right? My dear Master Mage."
Rosie didn¡¯t even refute. "That's right," she chuckled, "I'm waiting for you to beg for mercy in bed. Spinster!"
"Then we'll see."
"We'll see, old woman." The female mage said as she left, "You make me feel sick. So try to show off your coquettishness and use your spells to seduce men. Lest some bastards can't afford it. Not the least bit interested. I wish you good luck."
The female magician bowed, her eyes filled with smiles. "Thank you for your kindness."
The attendant opened the throne, and Prince Barton stood up. "Ladies and gentlemen, now, I, the ruler of Siris County, Prince Barton, want to announce good news." He said loudly. The guests present looked confused. They had no idea where the joy came from, as if they had been deceived by lies. "This beautiful lady beside me," Nianta's arm was pulled tightly by him. She cast a horrified look at the alchemist for help, but Leo was helpless. "She is the daughter of Earl Jinship"
"¡ª¡ªThat monster." There were low exclamations from all around.
"Heir to the Riverlands." Prince Barton could barely conceal his pride. "I hereby announce to you that I will marry the beautiful Miss Nianta and regard her as the love of my life and my eternal lover!" - Didn't finish reading?
