But did Roya like her? Ravshini couldn't help but pinch the quilt hard. She only thought Roya was a good person with a sense of responsibility. They could only be considered friends. They would just chat about literary works and drink tea together for a few hours every day.
[Actually, you are not that bad. At least... you are a good sister. Ravshini is well taken care of.]
[Abrana, seriously, I don't want to see you go the wrong way]
[It’s hard not to like someone like you who is around me all day]
Abrana found herself unable to sleep. Roya's words were like mosquitoes in summer, circling around her ears. She found herself unable to calm down, as if something was blocking her chest.
I still have to find something more for Luoya to do tomorrow!
Chapter 36: These two people can’t be together?
“Is this the finalized plan?”
Early in the morning, when the school officer arrived at Abrana's office, both of them were already sitting at their seats and busying themselves. However, only Roya was really busy, as Abrana seemed to have not slept well last night.
"Almost, but it must have been revised afterwards. Don't tell me you don't have any secret forces. Follow my standards for selecting personnel and yours for training. Write me a training plan."
As for how to train a secret force sharper than the Gray Hats, Luo Ya had a plan in his head when he brought it up last night, as if he knew what this force should be like.
"Zhuying... a nice name. Why did you choose an orphan specifically? You don't need to worry about having ties?"
"People who have been helpless since childhood are the most suitable to be loyal. If you treat them well, they will naturally work hard for you. Don't always think about ruling with authority. You need to make people respect and be loyal to us from the bottom of their hearts. However, with your IQ, it may be difficult to understand."
The officer was upset, but he couldn't make a scene in front of Abrana, not to mention that he still remembered clearly what Roya did last night, so he had to leave with the plan in his hand.
Today, Abrana did not retaliate against Roya's disrespect last night. She did not even give Roya the documents she was supposed to handle and then drink tea and laugh while watching him work overtime.
"It's really strange that you actually know that you, as a leader, are not just for show."
The familiar irony made Abrana glance up at Roya, and then continued to deal with the official duties in front of her. She was not a mascot or a combat character, so she still had to have the basic qualities of a leader.
But compared to Luo Ya who was working very smoothly over there, her speed was much slower. In addition, she had not slept well for two days due to insomnia last night and the pursuit of Luo Ya the night before, which somewhat affected the quality of her work today.
She still couldn't understand how Luo Ya's work efficiency was. He could even spare some time from time to time to type on the typewriter next to him.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"I'm mad at you." Abrana replied subconsciously.
"I'd be happy if you said that."
Luo Ya whistled and continued to correct the documents in his hand. As a secretary, he had the most things to deal with, but because he processed documents as fast as turning pages of a book, he was always the first to finish the task at hand.
(I really want to beat him up)
Abrana suppressed her anger and thought, forget it, if he really beat her to death, she would be at a loss, so now she should squeeze this guy hard.
Because the doctor that Eric mentioned who can cure everything except oripathy is coming today, Roya is in a bad mood. No matter what, it is still a hope. If the other party has no solution, Roya can only take the risk and give it a try.
After finishing the task at hand quickly, Luo Ya took the typewriter that he had brought from the Intelligence Department in the morning and prepared to reproduce the fairy tales from his previous life to see if he could make some money in this era and leave more inheritance for Xiao Ke and Rosemary.
"Ok?"
Just as he was about to knock, Luo Ya noticed that Abrana had fallen asleep on the table without him noticing.
"How strange! He really has insomnia. Oh, that's right. He was probably thinking about targeting Duke Kaster last night. He chased me until the early morning the night before yesterday. He must not have slept well."
Given Abrana's temper, Luo Ya couldn't say whether she would be burned to charcoal if he woke her up by typing too loudly. He had seen people being grouchy when waking up. Xiao Ke had the same experience. When he was woken up early in the morning, he would scream frantically for food.
"Quiet!"
The small room was muted. The chirping of birds outside the window and even the last music of autumn insects were blocked out of the room. Luo Ya tried to press the typewriter lightly, but there was no sound.
He found a piece of paper and wrote "Busy, do not disturb" in Abrana's handwriting and stuck it on the door. Then he locked the door and walked to Abrana's side.
"He's much cuter when he's asleep than usual. This guy has made a lot of sacrifices for his sister."
Since they are the last descendants of Draco and are still so young, Roya can guess what kind of blood debt the two sisters are carrying. Abrana's current state must be inseparable from her past experiences.
She created the Deep Pool, but she herself does not have much power, and she cannot rely on her own strength to compete with the Grand Duke, so she can only choose to cooperate. Although she still remembers to protect Ravshini, as time goes by, a rift is bound to appear between the sisters. Sooner or later, Abrana will follow the path that Roya has anticipated and become a completely self-centered tyrant.
Fortunately, this is not the case now. She still has a lot to learn. All Luo Ya can do is try his best not to let this guy go down a path that is not good for anyone. He doesn't want Rosemary and Xiao Ke to be implicated after he dies.
"You're actually drooling? I'll have to take a picture of this and laugh at it later."
He took out the communicator and took a picture of Abrana sleeping. Then Roya squatted down and poked her tail curiously. He just touched Xiaoke and Rosemary's ears and tails casually, but Abrana's dragon tail was really handsome. Except that it might be troublesome to sleep with, no man could refuse it. Unfortunately, he didn't.
After gently handing the blanket he used for nap to Abbrana, Luo Ya returned to his seat and continued typing. He couldn't help but yawn. He didn't sleep very well last night, probably because he used too much strength.
But this did not affect his work. He planned to write down the stories he had heard in prison, such as "Snow White and the Seven Calabash Brothers", "The Little Girl Selling Dynamite", "The Magic Lamp of Aladen" and "The Magic Brush of Ma Chao". Relying on Shen Chi's connections and the background of the Iron Duke, it would not be a problem for him to make this book a small hit.
Although I always feel that there seems to be something wrong with the fairy tales I have heard, but Xiao Ke and Rosemary both like them so much, I believe it will surely be a best-seller!
Time passed by minute by minute. First it was Ravshini, then the school officer or someone else. No matter who came to the door, they would wonder what happened inside and why they were not allowed to go in. There should be only Roya and Abrana in the room now.
Thinking of the rumors in the camp, combined with the change in the atmosphere between Roya and Abrana in recent days, the officer couldn't help but have a bad guess in his mind.
These two people... shouldn't they?
Chapter 37: Unexpected Intimate Contact
For Abrana, it is actually difficult to associate holidays with happiness and joy, because she always remembers the holiday bells that sounded like a death knell when her parents died.
Mom and Dad died as the festival bells rang out. The presents they had brought back from Londinium lay scattered at their feet, their wrappings stained with blood.
She pulled Ravshini out of the cold snow, with a blazing fire burning in her chest, and led her sister by the hand through alleys. Candlelight was reflected in every window, but there was nothing in front of them except darkness.
The footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer. She knew what those people's purpose was, so she hid her sister in the darkest corner, and then used her own fire to light up the darkness for the first time.
The purple flame engulfed everything, burning the enemies' swords and bodies to charcoal. It was a different flame from the one in the records, as it appeared because of her hatred.
That time, her hideous appearance and the burning buildings around her became Ravshini's eternal shadow, and the night seemed to be afraid of her power.
She did not reach out to her sister again. If Ravshini did not catch up with her, Abrana would not blame her. She burned all the pursuers, and then sought refuge from Earl Warwick, known as the "Ancient Singer", and then gradually grew up.
Abrana knew that Warwick's ambition was his only hope to use her bloodline to become Victoria's master, and she was even more aware that he was closely related to the death of her parents.
"So I killed him."
Abrana looked at her past, watching Earl Warwick, who had drunk the poisoned wine, being climbed by flames and then burned to ashes. That was the first time she felt disappointed with Ravshine. Her sister had no determination and lacked desire, so despite having a similar face, Ravshine could never disguise herself as her. When she was a child, Ravshine had pretended to be her sister several times in order to get some gifts, but she would not understand. Abrana would never ask for dolls or storybooks, she was too young.
Her ambition matched her strength. That night she promised her sister that she would allow her to be her shadow, otherwise the delicate flower would probably wither on its own. Abrana knew very well that her sister had the potential to be as good as herself, but she did not have a goal to match it.
The purple flame burned Abrana's dreams. She knew that her enemies were still hiding behind the scenes, and her fire would burn away their ambitions and desires.
"Ok?"
However, when she opened her eyes and saw the blanket draped over her body, Abrana's eyes softened a little. She looked at Roya who was still busy typing over there. The latter seemed not to notice her waking up and was concentrating on his work.
After realizing that the room seemed to be muted by Roya, Abrana walked carefully to his side and looked at the manuscript he placed beside her.
Perhaps because handwriting was too tiring and the typewriter was much more efficient, and because they were all stories he had heard a long time ago, Roya wrote extremely quickly. Abrana even noticed that the documents on her desk were all on his side and had been completed.
"'Dog, Tom and Jerry'? What a weird story."
After Abrana finished speaking, she found that her voice could not reach Roya's ears, which gave her some different ideas.
The tail went around to the other side and gently poked Luoya's arm. Luoya, who was busy typing, turned his head to the side, and the purple flame burning on the tip of the tail suddenly turned into a ghost face that was the same as his but more hideous.
"********"
There are not many people in this world who can be scared by their own faces. Although she couldn't hear what Roya said, it was not difficult for Abrana to tell what his reaction was from his expression, but she obviously ignored how intense Roya's reaction would be.
As if he had collected a frightened cat, Luo Ya jumped up from his chair in shock, hugged Abrana with his hands and feet, and hung on her, his hair all over his body.
That's why Roya couldn't maintain his ability anymore. His panicked voice was trembling a little. Now Abrana didn't know what he was talking about.
"What the hell is this?"
As a person who had seen blood, Luo Ya's reaction really broke other people's impression of him. He was a little over-stressed, but his pale face and panting did not seem fake.
The purple flame instantly retracted back to its original shape, and its powerful tail pointed at Luoya's side, signaling him to turn around. He suddenly felt that the thing he was holding was a little too hot.
"Um..." Luo Ya turned his head stiffly and looked at Abrana who was laughing angrily, "I can explain."
"Your Highness Abrana, are you busy?"
Just when Luo Ya was thinking about how to beg for mercy so that he could write a suicide note in a decent manner, the voice of the colonel reached their ears. Fortunately, he didn't want to offend either Luo Ya or Abrana, so he didn't push the door open at the first time, otherwise it would be difficult to explain if he was seen.
"Don't open the door yet!"
Abrana scolded Luoya angrily and almost threw him out of the window with her tail. She felt that he must have done it on purpose. How could someone be afraid of her face?
This unexpected close contact made both of them feel somewhat embarrassed and their faces turned red.
Without even needing Abrana to say anything, Roya quickly loosened his hands and feet, then ran to the door, opened it, and let the officer in.
"What's the matter?"
"Yes, uh..."
Although Roya and Abramana wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, their rosier faces and messy clothes seemed to suggest to the officer that he had come at a wrong time. Fortunately, there was no strange smell in the room, otherwise he would have to consider whether to write a letter to the Iron Duke to report that Abramana might be pregnant.
And the officer clearly felt that Abrana seemed very unhappy. Was it because he disturbed them?
"Go ahead."
Abrana was indeed unhappy, mostly because of Roya, and a small part because of the school officer. She couldn't explain the root cause of this small part, but the appearance of the school officer did ease a lot of embarrassment. She was indeed angry just now, but all she wanted to do was to pin Roya to the ground, and she didn't intend to kill him.
To put it more accurately, Abrana no longer wants him to die, no matter what.
"Yes, the doctor invited by Mr. Eric has arrived and brought some medical equipment. Secretary Luo Ya needs to cooperate with the examination."
Roya is Rosemary's guardian, so of course he should go. Abrana thought about it and said nothing. She would feel uncomfortable if Roya stayed here.
"Let Ravshini receive the guests on my behalf."
"I'm going right now!"
It was life-threatening to stay here, so Luo Ya ran outside without thinking. He wanted to find Lavshini.
"Your Highness, can I ask you a frank question?"
Since this concerns the future of Deep Pool, the officer feels that he has to get to the bottom of this matter even if Abbrana wants to burn herself to death.
"what?"
"Do you... like him?"
This was a question that made Abrana's eyelids jump. The officer was ready to be beaten, but only the flame on Abrana's tail suddenly increased a little.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"
"Yes."
There was no need for Abrana to answer directly. The school officer knew that he had probably guessed it. If it wasn't for this, Abrana would have burned herself to ashes. She would not allow anyone to shake her authority.
Chapter 38 Kal'tsit's Problem
Deep Pool, Kal'tsit had received intelligence about this organization and knew that they had formed an alliance with the Iron Duke behind the scenes, but she shouldn't have come into contact with Deep Pool so early in her plan.
But whether for Rosemary or to verify that possible hypothesis, she needed to come here in person.
"Dr. Kelsey, this is it."
Eric brought Kal'tsit to the door of Roya's room, his face inevitably showing anxiety. He already knew that Roya was recruited by Abrana to be the chief secretary. He had boasted before that he could cure the disease, but in the end he was of no help. If Kal'tsit was unable to do anything this time, then he would have to consider how to save his own life.
"You are the best doctor I know and the most knowledgeable person. Please help me this time."
"I see."
There was a trace of loneliness in Kal'tsit's eyes. She felt sorry for Eric, who was also her student. However, he did not say "please save this child's life" but was only concerned about preserving his own career. She wondered what the passionate and high-spirited Eric would think when he knew that his future would become like this.
When I opened the door, Roya, Xiaoke, Rosemary, and Lavshini were already waiting in the room.
(Does she know me?)
A hint of curiosity flashed through Luo Ya's mind. Kal'tsit didn't seem to glance at him casually just now. Instead, she looked at him purposefully. But she was worried that he would notice something wrong, so she looked away and pretended to just be observing the surrounding environment.
