My Maid Knight

2022-03-09/p>Chapter 38 mountain road twists around each new peak

“This Young Lord, has arrived.”

Coachman The urging sound of Roy interrupted Roy’s thoughts.

It’s not so much contemplation, it’s better to empty his mind, and he can’t think of any plan to break the game along the way.

Paying the fare, Roy jumps off the carriage.

What comes into view is the familiar Arnold Mansion, and the increasingly familiar—

the maid waiting for his return at the door.

“Welcome home, Young Lord.”

Arya bowed to him and smiled happily, “I’m back early today!”

“en.” Roy’s mouth twitched.

Looking at her smiling face, he also felt a little more cheerful.

Immediately Arya’s expression solidified: “Young Lord, the blood on your body is…”

Although the blood on her face was washed, the blood stained on her clothes was very Difficult to wipe off easily.

“That’s not mine.” Roy’s face was calm.

Arya is very sensible. She did not ask any further questions, but went back to the room to prepare hot water and a change of clothes, and served Roy to bathe and change.

Of course, she didn’t need to intervene in the bathing process.

As a personal maid, it is not impossible to achieve this level.

It’s just that Roy isn’t used to having someone help him change his clothes and rub his back, let alone Arya, even steward Sebastian never let him do it.

Stepping into the warm bathhouse with rising steam, he felt a little better under the hot water.

After getting out of the bath and changing into clean clothes, Arya has dinner ready during this time.

After gorge oneself, Roy leaned back in his chair and sighed with satisfaction.

Because of his personal maid, he can have his own menu and schedule, and Arya can always bring him the most attentive service at any time.

Although he can take care of himself, occasionally when he is exhausted, he also hopes that someone can take care of his daily life.

It’s like when he was a social animal in his previous life, his biggest dream was to go home from get off work every day and see that his wife had prepared a hot meal and was waiting for him to come back.

This warm feeling is enough to wash away the tiredness of the whole day.

After a meal, it is customary to study.

Roy didn’t go to school during this time, so he didn’t help Arya with homework. Instead, he did self-study.

Roy casually picked up a book on the bookshelf and looked at it. Now it is his time to read books. This habit has been going on for many years.

Only tonight, the words on the book seemed to him to be a grotesquely shaped ghost picture talisman, and could never enter his mind.

In fact, not only tonight, the past few days his state has been like this.

It’s like a mess in my head, very bad.

Unconsciously, his eyelids began to fight.

This time, Roy didn’t resist the increasing sleepiness, he lowered his head and fell into a drowsy sleep.

……

“bang bang bang ……”

The sound of the heel stepping on the stone pavement is very clear.

A thick fog gradually filled the streets.

“Elena?” Roy turned around suddenly.

No one answered.

As if disappeared from the face of the earth, everyone disappeared.

In the mist, he saw a silhouette walking in the distance.

The man was wearing a black cloak, like a Death God walking in the dark night.

Roy gasped.

Since his first trip to Underground City, every time he falls asleep, he has the same nightmare.

This is Underground City?

Why am I in Underground City?

Why am I called Elena’s name?

Who is that black cloak?

Roy doesn’t have a noded thread.

Maybe he knew it, but every time he woke up, the specific content of this dream would be forgotten in the deepest part of his memory along with his answer.

The black cloak came slowly, stabbing the dagger in his hand towards his throat.

The nightmares of the past will end at this time, but this time Roy suddenly explodes.

He grabbed the black cloak’s wrist, snatched the dagger, fiercely’s stab to his heart!

“Bang——”

“Ah…”

There was a muffled sound and a girl’s scream.

The voice seemed familiar.

Roy woke up suddenly.

Arya’s delicate and pretty face came into view, she was pushed to the ground by him, frowning slightly in pain, and clutching a blanket in her hand.

Roy remembered, this is his bedroom.

He was studying at the desk with Arya just now, but he fell asleep because of the exhaustion of running around for several days.

Arya tried to cover him with a blanket, but he subconsciously regarded her as an enemy and knocked her down with her backhand.

He was still pressing on Arya’s body at this time, in an indecent posture.

The sternness in Roy’s eyes faded away, and his expression was guilty: “Sorry, I’m sleepy…”

He was about to get up, but Arya suddenly stretched out his hands and squeezed him tightly. hold tight.

“Don’t go, okay?”

“I’m so scared, Young Lord, I’m so scared…”

She hugged Roy and pressed her forehead against him. In his chest, sobbing softly, like a little girl snuggling up to her beloved stuffed doll.

In the middle of the night without relatives, only the warmth around her can dispel her loneliness and loneliness.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m here,” Roy said softly, rubbing Arya’s head.

Her pale-gold hair feels like the highest level of silk, silky and supple, with a faint girly fragrance.

“Will you stay with me?”

Arya murmured softly, “I want to see you every morning, and I’ll make the best breakfast for you, Then watch you out of the house.”

“en.”

“I’ll clean your room, then clean the yard, do the laundry, make dinner, and wait for you at the door when you come back. .”

“en.”

“After dinner, I will come to your room to read and study with you. If I have any questions, I will ask you, and then I will Serve late-night snacks. Late-night snacks are your favorite Sanxian dumplings, and I also like this flavor recently.”

“en. ”

“I like the current life, I I just want to make it last longer.”

“… um.”

“So don’t go, I just want you by my side and nothing else. It’s important!”

Arya’s hands were getting tighter and tighter, as if she was afraid that the teenager in front of her would suddenly disappeared.

How could she not have guessed that Roy was struggling with her business?

Roy has been mentally and physically exhausted since the day Klein visited the mansion.

Whenever he came home with the stars and the moon, he was so tired that he didn’t even have the strength to talk to her.

It was possible to obliterate an aristocratic Aristocratic Family with no difficulty. She couldn’t imagine how complicated the shady story behind this case was.

How dangerous this is! She didn’t want Roy to take the risk.

Especially this afternoon, when Roy came home covered in blood, her heart was shaking with fear.

It was as if the past was about to reappear before my eyes.

She no longer wants anything else.

She just wanted to hold on to the little happiness in front of her.

“Yeah, what am I doing?”

Roy muttered to himself, slightly absent-minded.

After several days of investigation, he found nothing, his thinking seemed to have entered a dead end, and he could not think of any possibility of breaking the game.

Unconsciously, he has lost the direction of investigation, and even going to Lower City every day for investigation has gradually become a habit.

Now, not even Arya wants him to investigate further.

Does he need to keep going?

This seems to be a losing battle.

Let’s go back to daily life, I am still the Young Lord of Arnold House, and the double inheritor of extraordinary natural talent, who has been favored by the Great Family and has an extremely bright future.

Now, he also has a maid of the same age, she is gentle and lovely, loyal, and has awakened inheritance.

With her here, I will definitely be able to live happily in the future.

And all the unbearable things in the past should go away with the wind.

He sighed, and also wrapped his arms around the girl in front of him.

“Arya.”

“en?”

She stuck her head out of Roy’s arms and looked at him with tears in her eyes, the tip of her nose a little swollen red.

“I—”

Roy opened his mouth, only to find that there were some things he couldn’t say yet.

In the end, he just said softly: “I’m letting you worry.”

“The past few days…I’ll just rest at home.”

Arya blinked twice and laughed.

“Hmm!”

……

A dozen days have passed in a flash, and unconsciously the time has come to November 29th.

There are only two days left until Klein says the case is closed at the end of the month.

Roy glanced at the calendar on the desk, then tore up the November schedule, crumpled it into a ball of paper, and threw it in the trash.

After that night, he never went to Lower City again.

“Young Lord, I’m ready!” Arya’s voice came from the yard.

Today is Sunday, sun shone brightly, the weather is fine.

As scheduled, he is going to do morning exercises with Arya.

Roy walks out of the room.

Arya is now in armor, holding a shield in her left hand and a one-handed sword in her right hand, ready to warm up in the yard.

Half a month ago, when she woke up on the second day of becoming a Divine Knight, Reno bought a whole set of equipment for her. In order to ensure her cultivation time, Butler Sebastian did not assign her any housework anymore. Even the job of serving Roy now was earned by Arya herself.

Only because she remembers being Roy’s maid.

With plenty of time for cultivation, and Arya comes from the Knight Aristocratic Family and has a good foundation, this half-month training quickly showed good results.

At this moment, the morning light swayed on the girl, her hair was as bright as gold, and her whole body seemed to be bathed in a holy white halo.

This is the “gift” of Divine Knight’s innate talent skill.

When exposed to sunlight, both physical fitness and spiritual power recovery speed will be improved.

The way she is now does indeed have several points of grace and dashing as a Knight.

Roy drew an iron sword from the weapon rack and nodded towards Arya.

“Let’s get started.”

Since Roy handed Reno the Wolf King’s teeth that night, Reno knew his child had grown up.

While buying equipment for Arya, he also replaced the wooden sword in the yard with a sharpened iron sword.

“Sorry.”

Arya shouted loudly, put her shield against her chest, and launched a Knight charge.

Roy’s eyes lit up quietly, and she could see her movements.

He dodged the charge with ease and fought Arya.

Arya’s moves are not unfamiliar, but they are straightforward and easy to see. After the fierce battle with Qin Lu, Roy has no pressure to face her offensive.

And that doesn’t mean he can’t benefit from the fight.

He has not been idle for more than ten days. After this period of cultivation, with the addition of red spiritual power crystal, the spiritual power accumulated in his body has reached the bottleneck.

There is only one chance to be promoted to Second Rank.

Although the daily spiritual power accumulation of the inheritor can be taken as a shortcut through spiritual power crystal, the opportunity to advance to the rank always needs to be obtained by actual combat.

The essence of the inheritor is a powerful warrior. Only in the battle with real swords can the inheritors gradually grasp the power and true meaning of inheritance.

At this time, the spiritual power in Roy’s body was running wildly.

The blood all over the body is boiling.

He could feel his second stage inheritor’s steps gradually shimmering as the sword and shield collided.

Coming soon!

Roy’s attacks become more swift, and soon Arya has nothing but passive resistance.

She was also keenly aware that Roy was at the critical point of promotion at this time, so she did not make a sound, and silently put up her shield to resist all the attacks.

Until——

The spiritual power in Roy’s body surged uncontrollably, and the long sword in his hand suddenly let out an overwhelmed whine, slashing towards Arya’s arm shield fiercely .

“zi zi ——”

The fire star shot, the arm shield was cut with deep scratches, and the Mortal Grade long sword in Roy’s hand was also broken into several pieces. cut.

He stopped and closed his eyes.

In Divine Consciousness, his Moonshadow and Judge’s two inheritance ladders light up rays of light at the same time.

The second stage is lit up, and he successfully progresses to become a Second Rank inheritor.

Meanwhile, a torrent of information, centered on the two inheritance ladders, suddenly spread out of his Divine Consciousness, imprinting the new inheritance skills in his mind.

From Second Rank, each First Rank can learn two skills.

Moonshadow Second Rank skill: “stealth”, after casting the skill, it will enter the invisible state for a period of time.

Moonshadow Second Rank skill: “Shadow Strike”, a period of time after the skill is cast, when attacking from the opponent’s blind spot, it will cause further weakness damage.

Judge Second Rank Skill: “Immunity”, protect yourself from a negative effect

Judge Second Rank Skill: “Space Hand”, telephoto, control distance objects within a certain distance.

Roy mused.

Then.

As if blessed to the soul, he began to run spiritual power and cast his skills.

“Immunity”!

At this moment, as if some kind of restriction was broken, the memories buried in the depths of the subconscious rushed out like an erupting volcano.

He opened his eyes, his eyes were clear.

He remembered everything about Underground City.
