I, the Lord of the End

Chapter 55, The Approaching Shadow

Ritz Palace, in the master bedroom (Sid also lives in the outer cot), Sid and Celesty stared almost simultaneously at the burning flame in the fireplace and the iron pan hanging above the flame, and remained silent.

The temperature inside the house is warm and comfortable, the sound of the wind outside the house is beating on the unstable window structure, the flames and the light of the magic lamp shine on each other's faces, but it cools down the hot topic in the house.

The comfort and harmony during this period of time almost made Celesty forget that Sid was not really her servant but a "mercenary" left behind by a contract. When the request is temporarily put aside, the princess needs to find a suitable topic to cut into and maintain her own initiative.

"Let's talk about yourself first." Celeste couldn't let the atmosphere be so awkward, she leaned back on the soft sofa chair and said lightly: "Sid, do you have any memories of your childhood? Do you know Your own life experience? You obviously have a very good blood and good talent, why do you think about being bad all day long?"

"I don't know anything about my life experience. When I had a concept, I was adopted by my adoptive parents." Sid shook his head: "You have investigated almost all my experiences. What else can I hide from you?"

"You didn't answer my bad question." Celeste said seriously, "Did your parents teach you?"

"My adoptive father is a busy man, busy, busier than the donkey in the mill." Sid recalled a funny childhood, a little want to laugh: "He is just a donkey, just working, my adoptive mother is a very busy Charming woman, she can always make the most delicious meals with the least amount of food, but I think she is a little too charming sometimes."

"?" The princess looked puzzled, she picked up the wine and motioned Sid to continue.

"When we knelt down to pray in the church on Sunday, the priest would always stand in front of her and stay for a long time."

"puff!"

"Ahem...you...really." The red wine from the queen's mouth spurted out, splashing Sid's head and face. She coughed and hurriedly adjusted her appearance, feeling a little embarrassed.

"It seems that you sprayed it on my face, my highness?" Sid expressed helplessness.

"Sorry." The blushing Celiste quickly apologized. She took the silk scarf from her chest and offered to help Sid wipe his face soaked in red wine.

Does this guy have to be described like this?I can't stretch myself!
Celeste was ashamed and annoyed, seeing Sid's innocent face, she knew it was not his responsibility.

Following the queen's movements, a pendant fell out of her chest, instantly attracting all Sid's attention!
The second Void Realm Artifact, Angel's Tears!

Angel's Tears is a small sculpture of an angel without a head and arms. The sculpture is carved from a whole piece of pure white warm jade. It is hung on Celesty's chest with two silver chains.

This thing is indeed on the queen's body!

Sid immediately identified the target, and he couldn't feel wrong. This is the Angel's Tears, the second virtual realm artifact that the True God of the Ring wants to find.

The queen's servant couldn't help being emotional. After two weeks, he finally made some progress!At this speed, I might be able to collect all seven artifacts in five or six years!
Now that it's confirmed, it only needs to plan how to get it, which makes Sid look relieved, which is also clearly reflected in his facial expression, he looks a little happy and a little enjoying.

However, what Sid didn't expect was that his look naturally fell into Celesty's eyes.

In the sight of the princess, at this moment, not only was her personal bodyguard secretly staring at her chest, but she also wiped his face with a contented look on her face.

What does this indicate?
It seems that it is not so difficult to subdue Sid for his own use!
The princess knows how to use her advantage too well.

In this way, the moods of the young men and women who were already tense improved inexplicably.

"Finish talking about me, let's talk about you, I know almost nothing about you, my lord." Sid couldn't help saying two words after he was in a good mood: "Among the women I know, you Almost nothing like them."

"Do you know a lot of women?!" Who knew that the princess' soft eyes immediately sharpened as soon as she said this, and her gorgeous purple pupils immediately bit Sid's face tightly, narrowing her eyes slightly and dangerously: "Yes, you She is already very beautiful, and she will definitely not lack the love of women or even men, and she is so eloquent."

"Is this important?" Sid also leaned back, with an indifferent attitude on his face: "I used to be a mercenary middleman, my lord, but now I am your servant, it's as simple as that."

Why does this kid still want to run away?Celeste was unhappy in her heart, and it was naturally reflected in her words: "I know what those people outside call you?"

"what?"

"'Prince of the Empire's little milk dog', you have to understand, Sid, if I hadn't protected you, you would have been tied back to give birth full-time by others, and I was the one who protected you."

"Ah yes ↑ yes ↑ yes ↑" Sid thought it was not because of you, but he had no intention of arguing with Celesty but changed the topic: "You paid me so much money to hire me, don't talk about the little milk dog , small licking dogs are fine."

Sid was half-joking, but Celeste's mind suddenly appeared Sid knelt in front of her to express her obedience. She stretched out herself wrapped in dark red thick stockings and put on high-heeled short boots, and then Sid Humiliation and excitement slowly moved over...

"Continue with our last question first." Sid saw the unpredictable expression on Celiste's face and didn't know what she was thinking, so he quickly found a topic to interrupt her: "You really know some Nobilis I know. Is it because of your mother that the daughters of the family are different?"

"Mr. Sid, I hope you understand one thing." Speaking of her parents, Her Royal Highness's expression changed suddenly: "My family is my family business, please don't talk about my family without my permission." Family matters, otherwise don't blame me for breaking the contract!"

Celeste's reaction was so great that Sid's heart moved, and he let Celeste stare at him until she looked away before slowly saying:
"Royal family affairs are state affairs."

Sid said lightly: "As for private matters, my lord, you have no personal matters as a princess. If you always deal with things with such emotions, but I have nothing to say, I wish the matter would end immediately, and you pay me the rest." For a mercenary like me, it is quite normal to accept different commissions and change employers."

Royal family affairs are state affairs?
As the princess, you have no personal affairs?

Celestia froze.

The Imperial Princess carefully chewed on these words, and thousands of thoughts flooded into her mind. She never thought that Sid would say such a profound motto.

I have nothing personal?

She was absent-minded for a moment, staring blankly at Sid.

Sid was busy cooking with his head down.

The sound of knives and forks hitting the dinner plate continued. After a long time, the princess murmured to herself, and she didn't know if she was telling Sid: "I want to say that my status in the court is not high..."

"Stop!!! This is your private matter, my lord." Sid hurriedly wiped his mouth with a napkin to show that he was full. He put down the napkin with a playful smile and quickly made a "T" gesture with both hands: "Stop, stop, stop Having said that, I don't really want to hear it, Your Highness, not everyone is interested in the affairs of the royal family, I don't want to cause a disaster!"

"Boom!" The table shook violently, all the silver tableware trembled, the knives, forks, and goblets shook up and down, aperitif, wine, and liqueur spilled out, and Celeste slapped heavily on the veins that appeared on her forehead. table.

How she wanted to throw Sid into the fireplace now!
Wow, look at this Sid, he eats too much and is disobedient, why not roast him!

The princess quickly realized that she had lost her composure, and she said sarcastically: "Sometimes you say that my family affairs are state affairs, and then you say that I have no personal affairs, but you still don't listen when I say it, Sid, don't you know that mercenary practices don't teach you? Do you want to work for your employer after taking the money?"

"I only do what I can and what I should do. My Highness, not everyone is so interested in state affairs. For example, I am not interested, and I don't want to know about your family affairs." Sid smiled and said: " I just want to mess it up."

"Get out! Disappear from my eyes immediately!" The imperial princess felt an evil fire rushing from her belly to her forehead in an instant, and she burst out a brand new order from her teeth: "Now!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Sid immediately got up and disappeared into the room at an extremely fast speed, leaving only the princess sulking.

A few minutes later, Celesty suddenly realized that she was not only controlled by this guy, but even aroused by him!
This won't work, she plans to move back to Yicheng immediately.

But Sid didn't come back. The princess waited for more than an hour, and the hot pot was about to burn dry, but Sid still didn't come back.

Knowing that she had given the wrong order, the princess had no choice but to ask the maid to come in and pack up the dinner herself. Celeste did not and would not be able to take the initiative to go out to find Sid. This is a matter of principle.

There are actually many maids in the Ritz Palace, but because of the previous incident, Celeste doesn't trust them at all. Even if the maid who came in today looks strange, with a horse face and uncoordinated facial features, Celeste also Just let her get out after cleaning up.

She recognized this maid, who was strange in appearance but flexible in her hands and feet, and she had been there when she came here.

The maid silently cleaned up the dinner scene, and when she was almost done tidying up, the princess immediately said, "Let's go out after tidying up."

"Yes." The maid withdrew.

After the maid withdrew, Celesty looked up at the closed door vigilantly.

Just now she felt that the maid seemed to be staring at her for a while?

Forget it, maybe out of curiosity, Celeste lowered her head and continued to read the file.

When she came out of the room, a distorted smile appeared on the corner of the maid's mouth, her black almond eyes suddenly turned blood red, and there was a ring snake spinning rapidly inside, and the vertical eyes returned to normal after blinking a few times.

New information, "Guard" has left.

The saint can be notified that he is ready to do it.

……… I am the dividing line of hands………

After more than two weeks, Sid finally left the Ritz Palace for the first time. He breathed the fresh air outside and lamented the preciousness of freedom. Facing the empty and far-reaching dark night sky, Sid spread his arms and looked towards Looking at Lin Hai in the distance, facing the white eyes of the nearby black eagle guards, he couldn't help shouting:

"Freedom!"

Listening to the echo with satisfaction, Sid ignored everything around him and set off quickly.

After finally finding an opportunity, he finally got out of the cage for the time being, and bought himself some time by deliberately misinterpreting the imperial daughter's order and interpreting it as "leave here", but Sid knew that he would still have to go back later, because he had already Take over the Queen's mission.

Sid is very professional. If the princess gives him so much money, he will naturally do things well, or try his best to do it well.

Coming out of the manor, along the path paved with dirt, Sid, who opened the Falcon Eye to confirm the direction, replayed the conversation between the two just now. He had some intention of what he was going through, but Sid told her to put on the brakes.

Because after getting along for a period of time, Sid discovered that Celeste is a woman who lacks love very much. Although Sid does not know the past of the princess, he can speculate based on her few words and the information that can be collected from the outside world. What kind of lonely life did she experience in the capital?

If this woman with a strong desire for control and a penchant for micromanipulation really told Sid something about herself, she would regard this behavior as her great kindness to Sid, and then she would have expectations.

This woman is used to her high status and the excellence of her two ultimate biological brothers, so she can imagine the level of high expectations she has for herself.

Thinking of this, Sid smiled wryly and shook his head, he didn't want to meet this expectation.

Although the princess is very strong and wise, and every corner of her body is covered with his XP, Sid is clear-headed: in terms of their identities, views, status, and standpoints, it is very difficult for them to get along with each other. There is a future, unless a miracle happens.

Not thinking so much, Sid moved quickly along the path, he was going to the Light Elf Merchant Station to check the "Chaos Collection" given to him by his elder sister, and by the way make some extra preparations for the next thing.

The pitch-black sky covered the night sky like dirty thick ink, and neither the moon nor the stars could be seen. Even though Wolf Castle is a relatively wealthy city in the Wolf Principality, it is impossible to have magic lights everywhere. It's all black, and you can't see your fingers.

Wolf Castle is quiet at night, the scare of the disemboweling incident is not so easy to dispel, martial law is still in effect, civilians lock their doors and windows to sleep at night, even the nobles and the strong act cautiously, for fear of being killed by the legendary The "killer" is watching.

Yes, the government did not publicly acknowledge the existence of devil believers and worshipers, but the incident became more troubled than the use of the title "murderer", and they tried their best to suppress the impact of this incident, but the disembowelment incident happened There are signs of being overwhelmed by too much.

Let's hope nothing major happens, Sid thought.

However, Sid didn't even finish this sentence in his heart, screams came from the street hundreds of meters away, clusters of torches were lit, and the shouts of patrols, religious warriors and citizens were endless!
Oops, something went wrong!Sid hurried towards the scene of the accident.

"Someone has been disembowelled!"

"It's Mr. Walter Schell!"

"My lord, Jupiter, what blasphemy!"

"Get out of the way!"

More and more people crowded the streets, and more than 100 torches lit up the night sky. Sid pushed through the crowd by relying on his special appearance, and came to the front to ask the nearby residents.

The person who was disembowelled was Walter Schell, the dispatch officer of the Holy Empire, a happy old man who liked to sing, and the neighbors around him praised him for his kindness and kindness. The body of such a good old man was hung at the door of his house, Together with a temple guard of the Church of Heaven and a wolf champion warrior of the Wolf Principality!
And the most frightening thing is that the assailant not only disemboweled the dispatcher, but also fused the bodies of the temple guards and the wolf champion warrior together!What appeared in front of everyone was a bloody suture with three heads, six arms and six legs.

This is not an ordinary suture. Sid used the Falcon's Eye to inspect it a little bit, and his whole body was cold: the suture position was perfect without any rough marks, and he also thoughtfully used magic to make the flesh and blood fusion wound disappear.

There was a sentence written on the body.

"It's your turn~ you~ here~"

Is this the work of worshiping Xujiao?What exactly does Baixujiao want to do?Sid was shocked.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

"Those who stand in the way will be killed!"

"In the name of Jupiter, we will take over here, everyone will go back to sleep immediately, and those who violate the order will be punished as heresy!"

There were roars from behind.

Hutten, the imperial judge, quickly approached with a whole group of religious warriors.

Judge? !Sid hurriedly got into the crowd and escaped.

Now he suddenly felt that it was not so uncomfortable to be by the princess's side.

Go back as soon as you're done!
