My Maid Knight

2022-05-05/p> Chapter 142 Saintess and the Doll

Under the guidance of the domestic servant, Des Moines walked into Arnold Mansion and came to Roy.

“Roy.” Des Moines came over and said hello, then looked towards Leon.

“Lord Leon is also here, could it be that I came at the wrong time?”

Leon laughed: “It’s just a greeting, nothing important, Lord Des Moines is serving Your Highness the Saintess. Did you die?”

Des Moines nodded: “Exactly.”

He turned to Roy and said, “Roy, Your Highness invites you to visit Elland House, if it’s convenient. If so, please follow me now.”

“No problem.”

“No problem.

He took Apophis out of the “coffin”, scabbed it, hung it around his waist, then greeted Leon and Arya, and followed Des Moines to the Elland family’s house. carriage.

Although the scabbard that Leon made for him couldn’t cover Apophis’s breath, there was no better way for now, and he could only use it.

Anyway, the great characters he was going to meet would not be easily affected by Apophis’ breath.

“Roy, a few days have passed, have you mastered the power of Apophis?”

On the carriage, Des Moines asked calmly.

As the person responsible for dealing with Roy, gathering and understanding intelligence on Apophis is also one of his tasks.

Because no one in Sidonia had signed a pact with Apophis before this, they knew very little about the sword.

The only historical data that can be referenced is the record of the decisive battle with the Demon King six hundred years ago.

Soon after that battle, all the heroes who fought against the Demon King died, and it was unknown whether it was the Demon King’s power or the power of Apophis.

At present, what they can only be sure is that Apophis is indeed an unusual law sword, and it is just the breath that it emits unconsciously in a normal state, which is unbearable for ordinary people.

Even if the high-level inheritors stay with it for a long time, the physical and mental state will decline, which is the strong proof of Apophis.

It’s hard to imagine how powerful this Demon Sword will be when it’s thrown into the fray again.

“Almost.”

Roy laughed and replied casually, “Speaking of Mr. Des Moines, do you want to convey my intention to His Royal Highness, what did she think? “

Des Moines shook his head and said, “His Royal Highness didn’t say much. She invited you to be a guest in the mansion, perhaps because she wanted to chat with you face to face.” There is a bottom.

Des Moines’s response was a tactful, arguably respectable rejection.

It’s natural to think about it. If it was him, he would also require his subordinates, whom he worked hard to recruit and cultivate, to swear allegiance to him.

even more how is a personal bodyguard like the Royal Knight.

This time I went to the mansion to be a guest, and it is estimated that Saintess himself would recruit him again to test his true attitude.

If you insist on refusing to swear allegiance, then this matter can only be done.

Although Leon said that you can get a space ring by becoming a royal knight, but if you lose your freedom for this, you will neglect the root and pursue the tip instead.

This is also his bottom line, no matter how generous the reward, he will not be tempted by it.

 …

Elland House is located in the central area of Upper City, just behind the Sidonia Temple. It is the largest Aristocratic Family house in Sidonia.

The reason why Elland House is so close to the temple of Sidonia is also due to some historical issues.

Hundreds of years ago, during the initial dictatorship of Sidonia, the Temple of Sidonia was the place where the Elland Royal Family normally called the princes to court.

The Elland House is equivalent to the Royal Family’s bedroom. The two parts are originally one, and both belong to the Elland family.

Later, Sidonia’s system underwent a bloodless reform, the royal family ceased to exist, and the temple of Sidonia became the office of the temple council and was no longer the property of the Elland family.

But the status of the Elland family is still high. As the residence of Holy Son (Saintess), the Elland House remains the same and has not moved.

Arriving at the door of Elland’s house, Roy followed Des Moines and jumped off the carriage and walked to the house.

As expected of the former Royal Family’s bedroom, Elland’s mansion is more luxurious than the Qin and Paladin’s mansions he has ever seen.

After entering from the gate, there is a wide square. After crossing the square, you can see a wide main street with a red carpet, which leads straight to the white palace at the end.

Looking up, behind the White Palace is the towering World Tree.

Roy followed in the footsteps of Des Moines, and along the way, he had seen no less than two teams of patrolling soldiers pass him by.

As expected of the Royal Family.

Roy sighed in his heart and confirmed, “speaking of which, is this time His Highness Shirin is going to see me, or is His Highness Vera going to see me?”

“It is His Highness Vera. .” Des Moines replied.

He took Roy through the layers of guards, walked into the White Palace, came to a spacious study, and said, “His Royal Highness has come, please sit here and wait for a while.”

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave. After hesitating for a while, he was warned repeatedly: “Roy, although His Royal Highness Vera has an easy-going personality, and he has not been officially crowned yet.

“But after all, she It is the future Saintess, you must not go too far in her words, otherwise it will be disgraceful. “

Roy’s remarks “even Saintess isn’t worthy of my allegiance” after the Holy Land tour before, freaked him out.

He also I’m a little afraid that this kid will make provocative words in front of Your Highness the Saintess. If he angers His Royal Highness, the consequences will be disastrous.

Don’t look at Vera is only eighteen years old now, after graduating from the Inheritance Academy In the past few months, she has gradually taken over various affairs of the Elland family, and she has real power.

Although because of the two losses to Qin Lu, the outside world has not given Vera’s performance very much. High evaluation, but as a clansman of the Elland family, Des Moines knows it——

Vera’s innate talent is actually quite high, even Her Royal Highness Xilin has personally admitted that her daughter will be in the The near future surpasses her.

He has always believed that Vera lost to Qin Lu just because she didn’t want to win.

This Your Highness the Saintess, she used the It’s more than that when you’re doing your best!

“I know what to do. “

Des Moines left the study after seeing Roy> nod

.

The maid outside came to make a cup of tea for Roy, and then also left the huge Roy was the only one left in the study.

Roy took a sip of tea, leaned on the sofa and waited quietly for Vera to arrive. The wall clock made a “crack crack” sound.

As time passed, in the quiet atmosphere of the study, Roy half-closed his eyes, as if he was dozing.

Then at a certain moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up, looked towards a rag doll on the desk opposite.

Having been a human being in two lifetimes, coupled with God’s Heart’s baptism, his mental strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, and his intuition is more acute.

As soon as he entered the study, he immediately realized that he had been targeted by a certain line of sight.

The owner of the line of sight seemed to think that Roy couldn’t find his peeping, and he didn’t hide it at all. Planning.

Roy pretended to be dozing off, but in fact was silently observing the surrounding environment, and soon locked a suspect in the study——

That was placed on the opposite desk A rag doll of her.

Vera is a girl after all, so it is not particularly strange to have a rag doll in her room, and the workmanship of this rag doll is extremely delicate, even if it is placed in the study for decoration There is no sense of incongruity.

Roy leaned on the desk, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the doll carefully.

No, it should be a human being to be precise. Puppet, its body joints are made of hard material, which can support its heavy skirt.

This puppet has long golden hair, blue eyes and With a delicate face, it is dressed in a gorgeous tutu, like an aristocratic Princess who is dressed up to attend the ceremony.

Roy had seen this in the store before when he was studying various props. A type of puppet.

But in his mind, there has never been a puppet like the one in front of him, with such beautifully designed costumes and such vivid facial features—

It almost seems to be alive.

Could it be that the feeling of being stared at just now is just an illusion caused by this doll being too vivid?

But how is it possible, How could he make such a low-level mistake?

Roy frowned, he hesitated for a while, then stretched out his right hand index finger and poked the puppet’s cheek.

Although he was free to touch other people’s things West is a little rude, but this doll is just too weird.

And since Vera invited him, but the Master has not appeared, could it be that this is the test she set?

He wanted to see what was hidden in this little doll.

And just as Roy’s hand was about to touch the puppet, he suddenly froze.

The puppet in front of me – actually moved!

The doll’s eyes looked at Roy, its body floated slightly, and it quickly stepped back.

At the same time, a young female voice with a little disgust sounded in his mind:

“You have an abominable ominous aura about you, hurry up and leave me. Farther away!”

Soul sound transmission?

Roy was stunned, this was the second time he had communicated with others through Divine Consciousness other than God’s Heart.

He took two steps back and sat back on the sofa, looking at the doll floating in the air curiously, simulating the way he had spoken to God’s Heart before, and asked in his heart:

“You are that puppet? What are your plans?”

The puppet floated straight to the wall and sat on the window sill of the study before replied:

” What’s the attempt? It’s really ugly, I just want to come and see the law envoy who has the Demon Sword Apophis.

“As expected, the breath of this sword is really disgusting, only It makes me feel very unpleasant to be close, unimaginable that you can actually bear its power. ”

Roy was about to speak, when the door on the other side of the study opened, and a silver-haired girl in a long dress walked in.

Follow him The door that came in as a guest is different. Only the host can go through that door, and her silver white hair also shows her identity.

Vera Elland, the future Your Highness the Saintess arrive slowly.

In the auditorium of the Inheritance Academy, across the huge stadium, he could only see Vera’s back.

Until now, Roy could not fully see it. This girl has inherited the beauty of Saintess Shireen, her skin is as crystal white as her silver hair, which is different from her noble status, but she only wears a relatively simple white Long dress.

The most impressive thing is her golden pupils.

Vera’s golden pupils don’t give the same kind of contrast as your average Judge inheritor. Strong oppression, her eyes are very calm…sometimes even a little hollow.

When she first looked at Roy, her slightly out of focus eyes once made him think this Your Highness The Saintess is distracted.

“His Royal Highness Vera? “Roy greeted tentatively.

“…Sorry to keep you waiting, Lord Roy. “

Vera’s eyes refocused, an apologetic smile appeared on her face, “Alice said she wanted to see you alone, so I’m a few minutes late, sorry. “

“You, you? “Roy can’t be beaten.” Your Highness Vera, just call me by my name, no need to be so polite. ”

Even if he became an envoy, he would not be honored by this Your Highness the Saintess.

Then, he looked towards the man sitting by the window sill puppet, said: “When you say ‘Alice’, do you mean… this puppet? “

“Yes. “

Vera sat down at the desk, and the doll stood up from the windowsill and floated on her shoulders, “Her name is Alice Lucian. “

“Lucien…” Roy pondered then said, “I remember that the Aristocratic Family, the temple represented by Deathrattler, is the Lucian family.” “

“That’s right. “

It’s a pity that Vera was born at the same age,”Alice was born in the Lucian family, she was a genius of the Lucian family at that time, she reached the nth rank lightly, and was incurably wounded in a raiding battle.

“One of the ancestors of my Elland family was her good friend, so I found this doll as a container for her, so Alice’s soul survived and has been guarding us younger generations until now. .”

“As for the people who met for the first time, how detailed is it?” Alice’s dissatisfied voice sounded in their minds, “even more how this was more than a hundred years ago. It’s an old thing.”

It turned out to be a girl who lived for more than a hundred years, Roy touched his chin.

Deathrattler inheritance is good at manipulating the soul, and perhaps only a powerful Deathratler like Alice can survive the death of the soul by attaching to objects.

Alice just showed her disgusted attitude towards him, probably because Apophis’s breath stimulated her.

After all, the power of Apophis acts not only on the body, but also on the soul. It may be very restraining Alice, a “solitary soul, unbound ghost” who has lost her body.

Vera and Alice were both silent for a while, the two seemed to communicate with Divine Consciousness for a while, then Vera nodded and said: “Mr. Roy, Alice and I are very fond of Apophis. Interested.

“Would it be convenient for us to see your sword? “

“No problem. “Roy stood up and was about to come over.

“Don’t come!” Alice warned loudly in her head, “Just stand there!” “

Roy stopped in place with a wry smile.

Well, the road to powerhouse is always lonely.

Thank you for teaching me that, Dear Apophis.

Thanks to Zhuge Wanjun and Nishikino Maji hshs for the reward! It’s a little bit sloppy, sorry for being late.
