Chapter 425: Ghost Wife and New Wife! What Should a Husband Do?
Chapter 425: Ghost Wife and New Wife! What Should a Husband Do?
It was pitch black all around and I couldn't see anything.
Roland felt like he had fallen into a river. The water in the river was very light, and anything that fell into the river would sink to the bottom.
But his body was also very light, so light that it was difficult for him to swim in the water and he could only drift with the current.
Gradually, the surface of the river seemed to become thicker and thicker, and Roland could slowly see things clearly.
Suddenly Roland realized that it was not because he was blind, but because it was too dark here.
There were some silk threads in the river, emitting a faint light, which allowed him to see the surroundings clearly.
This is indeed a river, a river in the desert.
There seemed to be a lot of people in the river, their eyes were dull, as if they had no thoughts.
Our bodies can pass through the silk threads in the river like air, but occasionally some of the threads will stick to us, making the river water thicker.
Gradually, there were more and more silk threads, and some people were simply stuck to the threads.
Roland vaguely had the idea that he must not get stuck by the silk threads. He swam desperately in the river, trying his best to avoid the threads.
Slowly, Roland saw an oasis appear at the end of his vision. The river in the desert passed through the oasis, and it was unknown where it would end up.
But there was a faint sound of falling water in the oasis, as if the river water would form a waterfall after flowing into the oasis and eventually reach somewhere.
Seeing the oasis getting closer, Roland couldn't help but get excited. He had a vague feeling.
As long as you reach the oasis, you win.
There were more and more silk threads, but Roland was stronger than his companions. Others couldn't swim in the water at all, but he could not only swim but also dive!
There were also silk threads in the river, but they were much fewer. Roland narrowly avoided one silk thread after another by swimming and diving.
Gradually, the oasis drew closer. Roland could already vaguely see the end of the river in the distance—there seemed to be a waterfall there!
Many people fell directly from there after arriving there.
"You're so naughty! You loved pestering me when we were little, but now that I'm pestering you, you're hiding again."
Suddenly, there was a strange creaking sound above my head, and then a faint light appeared in the sky.
Roland looked up at the sky in astonishment.
The creeping dark clouds covered the sky, obscuring the sun and the earth. Its existence made the original world dark and gloomy.
Some fine black smoke is slowly rising from the desert into the sky and joining the clouds.
Slowly, the sky became brighter and brighter, and there seemed to be a dozen moons covered by dark clouds.
These moons are arranged in a very regular posture on the black sky. They are slowly getting bigger, and the dark clouds around the moons are slowly dispersing.
As the clouds around the moon gradually dispersed, the moon became clearer and clearer.
These huge celestial bodies seem to be rotating slowly and there is a scarlet crack in the center of the celestial body.
These moons look like split pomegranates.
Or eyeballs.
——["So you're here. Do you really not want to marry me? But this time, it's not up to you. Hehehehehehehe"]
The god that covered the sky suddenly lowered his head from the clouds, and a spider-like face covering half of the sky opened its mouth towards Roland.
Immediately, countless spider silks fell from the sky and landed in the vast river. Roland was horrified.
At this moment, Roland had no way to escape.
As if by some strange coincidence, Roland suddenly looked towards the distant end of the river and saw a person about to fall into a waterfall. The next moment, Roland appeared at the waterfall, and the person who was supposed to fall into the waterfall appeared where Roland was.
There were so many silk threads falling from the sky that they almost covered the entire desert. Silk threads were still falling near the waterfall, but Roland fell into the waterfall first.
--["it's useless!"]
Amid the god's wild laughter, Roland suddenly saw that the bottom of the waterfall was covered by a thick spider web!
Roland was so frightened that his soul was about to die, and his whole body disappeared like smoke.
An angry howl echoed from the sky. The low-frequency sound waves shattered the dark clouds in the sky, and dense black raindrops began to fall.
Upon closer inspection, the dark cloud turned out to be countless flies.
"Heh~~~"
Like a person who had just woken up from drowning, Roland sat up panting and sweating profusely.
It was pitch black all around, and Roland subconsciously thought he was in the desert, and he couldn't help but nervously clutched the heavy quilt.
After a few seconds, Roland's SAN gradually recovered and his vision became clearer.
This is a large and warm bedroom with very thick curtains that completely block out the light from outside.
The room was not completely dark, but Roland was a little confused just now, so he blocked out everything he saw.
The fire in the fireplace in the distance was burning brightly, the firewood crackling as it burned, emitting warm light and heat.
There are many gold and silver utensils and antiques in the room, and the tapestries and carpets are also very exquisite.
Roland slept on a soft feather bed with a quilt made of silk stuffed with velvet.
Judging from the furnishings in the house, the owner living here is definitely a nobleman, at least richer than a country lord like Baron Hall.
Baron Hall could not afford such a bed, nor could he afford tapestries to insulate the castle.
‘Where is this? ’
Roland hurriedly checked his body and found that his body was empty, just like an ordinary mortal.
Roland's heart skipped a beat.
His eyes searched the room.
Soon, Roland noticed that there were many mechanical clockwork gadgets in the room.
There were also several unfinished mechanical dolls on the table, as well as some books, drawings, etc.
It seems that the owner of the room likes to study these kinds of toys.
Soon, Roland found some portraits on the wall, and one of them caught Roland's attention.
As a sword-bearing squire who had lived in the castle for many years, Roland was considered Baron Hall's chief manservant. He was very familiar with the nobles' rules and customs.
So he could tell at a glance that the painting specially placed in that position was most likely a portrait of the owner of this bedroom.
Or rather, portraits of the host and hostess.
Maybe it was painted by the man himself.
The male host was in his twenties and looked about the same age as Roland.
From the host's hair color, Roland could conclude that this might still be his world, and it was most likely in the south.
Because his hair color is black.
In the south, one-third of the nobles had Malrod ancestry. Of course, even on Roland's home planet, there were many people with dark hair in Europe.
This man actually looked somewhat like Roland—about 50% or 60% similar, but the man was more handsome and had a gentler appearance. He looked like someone with a particularly soft personality and was easily bullied.
His wife was also very beautiful, with a youthful and gentle face. At first glance, she was the kind of woman who was particularly gentle, yet also a bit lively and naughty. Generally speaking, she was a person who didn't have too many complicated thoughts.
As a wizard, especially an Alayeh wizard, Roland's intuition was very accurate. If he had a feeling about what kind of person someone was, he would generally be right.
I don’t know whether this young couple is the young master and his young mistress, or the master and his mistress.
If this couple is the owner of this place, then the husband's father must be very remarkable. Otherwise, if it were passed down to his generation, it would have been completely eaten up.
At this moment, Roland suddenly sniffed and discovered a very faint medicinal smell in the house. There was also a faint trace of death lingering around - someone had died in this house some time ago.
After coming to his senses, Roland couldn't help but cover his eyes fiercely.
"So, I was sacrificed, and then I floated down the River Styx back to the human world and resurrected as a corpse?"
"So, I am now the man in the painting?"
Roland felt very unwell.
Other things are easy to deal with, such as cultivation.
I seem to be able to still sense Leona, but I can't sense Diana.
But if he can feel Leona, he can ask her to help him find the snake ring.
His realm was already improving quickly, and with so many treasures at his disposal, he would soon be able to reach his original realm. Roland even had a feeling that this time he could directly ascend to the realm of Demigod or above.
Besides, there was nothing urgent or important right now. Although there had been a "small problem" on the way here, Roland had a vague feeling that the plan he had discussed with the Thousand-Eyed King would require his group to slowly lay out.
Judging from the current situation, nothing big will happen in the short term. O'Reilly shouldn't cause any big trouble either, right?
Probably not.
The worst that can happen is that you can just avoid these things and avoid fighting with others.
Therefore, I should have time to practice and come back.
But after practicing for a long time, the body is not your own, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
Besides, how should I face my senior in the future?
Catherine has a psychological obsession with cleanliness. If Roland were to interact with her in the appearance or even the body of another person, she would absolutely not be able to accept it.
Roland also felt uncomfortable.
At this moment, Roland's mind was in a turmoil, with many thoughts on his mind. Gradually, his mood calmed down.
"Small problem, my knowledge and memories are still there. Recreating an authentic 'Roland body' won't be a problem!"
"The 'holy tree' that O'Leary stole back then is in my hands!
That thing can make anything!
'Tukara' can even create demonic insects, so cloning my exact body is no problem.
When the time comes, I will undergo a soul transformation and be completely resurrected.
And my clone is different from this body. It can perfectly merge with my soul. Then I won't need to practice anymore!
What a great idea!
This can be done in the next two days!
Thinking of this, Roland was greatly excited and couldn't help but clench his fists.
At this moment, Roland suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a faint scar on his wrist.
Looking at the scar, Roland had a strange expression on his face.
Roland's SAN was very low, and he was completely brain-dead. So he'd forgotten one thing: back in the Black Forest, he'd once hung a certain young lady from a tree and given her a good spanking.
In return, the lady bit him hard on the wrist.
The young lady was incredibly large, and her bite was even more formidable than a tiger's. So even though she hadn't used her full strength, the wound was still quite significant.
To this day, the scar remains on Roland's wrist, a token of their love.
Of course, considering Roland's current level of stupidity, even if he remembered the origin of the scar, he couldn't think of what it meant.
Just as Roland was looking at his wrist and frowning, he suddenly heard some movement outside the door.
——There were footsteps outside the corridor. The footsteps were very light, as if they were the footsteps of a lively woman.
Roland couldn't help but think of his wife. His mind was in turmoil, unsure how to deal with his "wife." He quickly lay down on the bed and pretended to sleep.
A moment later, a woman pushed the door open and walked into the room, and a faint fragrance suddenly filled the room.
After entering the room, the woman first walked to the table, then she hummed a little tune softly and fiddled with the mechanical toys on the table for a while.
Roland remembered that there were quite a few of these things and books in the room. These things definitely belonged to the master. Well, of course, they also belonged to the mistress. Because this was not only the master's bedroom, but also the mistress's bedroom!
Roland thought to himself, "How can a wife still be in the mood to do those things when her husband is unconscious? How can she be so careless!"
Suddenly, Roland thought of a possibility.
The smell of medicine in the room was very faint, so the man's illness might not be serious. But although the husband's illness was not serious, he needed more sleep and rest. So the wife moved cautiously after entering the house.
My husband was fine last night, but he may have died from a sudden myocardial infarction or something like that in the middle of the night.
So the wife never thought that her husband would die.
While Roland was distracted, he suddenly felt someone sitting beside the bed.
Roland couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
He didn't even feel the woman walking around in the room just now!
Suddenly, Roland felt that the woman was secretly looking at him.
His heart suddenly tightened.
Oh no! Have I been discovered?!
The woman was secretly looking at Roland, and Roland was also secretly sensing the woman.
It would have been fine if he hadn't sensed it, but once he did, Roland's heart was filled with turmoil.
This woman possessed a deep and hidden divine power, which made Roland feel unfathomable!
Roland thought to himself, "It's over! It's over now! Who could have imagined that this man's wife is such a powerful person with hidden abilities? I've definitely been discovered."
Roland vaguely felt the woman's gaze.
"She seems to be secretly observing my eyelashes and nose?"
Roland couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The wife probably didn't notice anything unusual about her husband. But the couple seemed to have just been married for a short time and didn't know each other well, and the wife was deeply in love with her husband.
It seems that this couple has indeed just gotten married. Although they are not familiar with each other, they have a good relationship.
Roland thought to himself, "What a good name this guy has! His wife is as powerful as a god, yet she pretends to be a mortal and clings to him. Were my parents just as happy back then?"
If Roland's father 'Anthony' heard what his son said, he would be so depressed that he would vomit blood.
Roland's mother was indeed very happy, but his father was not at all. Every day he lived like the protagonist in "Saya no Uta." One moment he saw his wife as a beautiful woman, the next he saw her as an indescribable, creeping thing.
At this moment, Roland suddenly felt an itch on his nose. An image flashed through his mind: a playful woman secretly brushing her nose with a feather, giggling as she did so.
Roland felt strange in his heart, and he thought to himself: "I am worrying too much. She really hasn't found anything wrong with me."
Back then, my senior, Anna, and Nar were all stronger than the other, but none of them noticed anything wrong with me.
Although I am not descending into the heavens now, but rather resurrecting from a dead body, this kind of thing is not so easy to detect. Once you believe that it is someone you know, you will lose your vigilance.
But, she must have noticed that I was pretending to be asleep.
Roland felt that he could no longer pretend to be asleep.
But what should I do? How do this couple usually get along?
