Cecil and Jasper.

Different from you.

"Miss Caroline?"

Nagini cried out.

Caroline rolled her eyes and forced a smile at Mori Yuesha: "There is no way to change the aging of the soul. We can only choose to make our appearance look more glamorous, right?"

"The soul ages because mortals do not have the power to maintain its youth." Mori Yuesha pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and looked pitiful: "That is the despair after hope. Trying to grab something that does not belong to you..."

"Mori Tsukisa."

Nagini pulled her master back with a headache and explained softly to Caroline: "She just likes to discuss these philosophical issues."

philosophy?

Caroline didn't care and gave a strange smile.

well.

If you are interested in these.

Believe these...

very good.

Caroline straightened up: "I also joined a small club that studies the soul in college." She glanced at Mori Yuesha: "We can communicate when we have time, dear."

"Can we discuss this while we eat? I see those vegetables you grow in your garden are pretty good."

Nagini swore, swore she saw Caroline's mouth twitch for a moment...

“That’s a plant.”

"Plants are just vegetables, they can be eaten, Caroline. Let me tell you, some vegetables can be easily prepared, some cannot; some can be used for bathing, some can be squeezed; in terms of eating, cooking and using them, Nagini and I are both experts."

Nagini: You're only responsible for eating.

“Those are the plants that Mrs. Devereux has been raising for many years. Every inch of the garden is the result of her hard work.”

Mori Yuesha waved her hands impatiently: "She's dying soon. You are not related to her, don't worry." She patted her chest and promised: "The delicious food made by Nagini will make you forget about Mrs. Devereux."

Caroline suppressed her desire to curse, and with a stiff expression, she said, "I have no right to do this, girl, and neither do you."

Didn't we pay?

Mori Yuesha turned to look at Nagini: "No way? I still want to build a wooden house on that tree."

Unfortunately, no.

Please don't mess around in other people's homes, master.

"Oh, that's a shame. By the way, where is the paralyzed old man? Where does he live?"

Caroline pointed to the room at the end of the corridor: "I hope you can treat him well."

"I'm very kind."

"I can tell."

Nagini followed behind silently and watched the two women talking to each other.

This world is not unfamiliar to Nagini: she grew up here, walked here. She suffered torture and bullying here, and she has no good feelings towards this world. And since she came to the estate of Mrs. Devereux, or the new heir, Miss Caroline, there are more uneasy and irritating things floating in the air.

This reminded her of the days long, long ago when she was imprisoned by Skender and forced to work for him.

This manor…

Disturbing.

This town is even more so.

Nagini began to doubt whether there was anything wrong with where they were staying.

"Hera."

"Nana."

"Check this town."

"I've checked it out when we landed. I've searched all the history and rumors about this town, and there's nothing that can threaten Asa's existence - if you consider murderers to be counted."

“I feel uneasy.”

"In human terms: You care too much about Asa."

"I don't need you to educate me on something that everyone knows. You know what I mean. I have the blood of the Master of Fate Changing in my body. There must be something in this town that exceeds its proper limit."

Hera's answer surprised her.

"Even if it is, so what?"

"Hera?"

"Have fun - Asa's travel motto."

"You should know that nothing can threaten your master. Even if there is, your 'cute' worries can't stop or solve it. As a servant, shouldn't you make your master happy?"

This is a bit sharp.

Nagini sneered: "You have no body, you are just a series of cold procedures. Of course you can't understand the concerns of us 'cutes'."

Seeing Hera's sudden silence, Nagini sighed and slowed down her tone: "Sorry... Hera. Maybe you are right. I should adjust my mood. Recently..."

“It could also be that he’s unsatisfied.”

"According to the historical records, the frequency of your and Asa's 'trouble' is increasing rapidly. I can tell -"

"Hera."

"If I have time, I can give you a comprehensive psychological test."

"No, I take back my apology."

"What a shame."

"You deserve it."

Chapter 14 Hehe Accident

Mr. Ben has become even weaker.

When that self-righteous female nurse came, he could still climb up to the eaves through the window; now, if it weren't for the bulging of his eyelids, she would almost think that there was a corpse lying on the bed.

The rise and fall of the chest was very slight.

"Pitiful."

This was the scene that Mori Yuesa and Nagini saw when they came in.

A dying, bedridden old fellow.

"He's so pitiful..."

The room was filled with the smell of burning spices. Just like the long, quiet corridor, the entire first floor, and everywhere in the building—the room was lit with rough wax, with no electric lights.

The halo spread out, shining on one side of Mr. Ben's old face, which was as wrinkled as a quilt cover after waking up.

He seemed to be dreaming, his brows were furrowed so tightly that they were almost connected.

There was nothing extra in the room, just an old-fashioned cabinet, an old-fashioned storage table, a wooden bed frame with peeling brown paint, and half-drawn thick green curtains covered in dust.

A few crushed pillows and dirty yellowed sheets.

The black line border left by the wall mirror.

"Miss Caroline, from what I've observed just now, this house seems to..." Nagini asked her softly, "There are no mirrors?"

There are no mirrors.

Caroline's face turned pale, and she said vaguely, "I don't know... This is what Mrs. Devereux told her... It's her habit."

What kind of habit is this without a mirror?

Nagini narrowed her eyes and asked, "But now, this house belongs to you."

“I have to follow…”

"follow…"

Caroline was incoherent: "That's it, that's it..."

"My master and I need a mirror to hang above—"

"Can't!!"

The woman's sharp voice cut off the candlelight.

"No...Absolutely not! No mirrors!"

Nagini's expression changed slightly: "Can I know the reason?"

"No, no, no, no mirror... Ben will die!!" The young blond homeowner hurried to Nagini in panic, grabbed her hand, and pleaded in his eyes: "Don't do this, you can use a hand mirror, a hand mirror... Don't hang a mirror..."

Is there something wrong with this person?

Nagini slowly opened her trembling hands: "Miss Caroline, what happened? You can tell me that my master and I don't belong here. Besides, as a maid, I have the obligation to protect my master from..."

"Something's hurting. You better tell us everything before anything goes wrong."

——They are born to believe those things.

--Very good…

Caroline lowered her head gloomily, her eyeballs turned upward, and the large whites of her eyes made her look very weird.

then…

"It won't, it won't hurt you..."

She looked at Mori Yuesha with tearful eyes.

"It won't... Please, stop asking, okay?"

"Madam... is protecting us..."

Caroline ruffled her blonde hair with both hands, tears falling from her eyes.

It looked so pathetic.

"Just keep it as it is. Don't, don't touch anything in the building, okay?"

Nagini looked at the crazy woman in front of her and nodded helplessly: "It's possible. I still hope you can tell us something about the past."

"I know, I know... I know that, I saw it, the lady protected me..."

"I shouldn't have tried, shouldn't have..."

The woman walked around the room, muttering nervously: "I shouldn't have tried it, it's too magical, it made me see a new world..."

——While the two were talking, Mori Yuesha had already quietly come to the bedside.

Ben was woken up.

His loose eyelids were trying to lift his triangular eyes upwards, his lips were trembling and turning purple. He couldn't say a word, he could only roll his eyes and watch a strange face approach...

Her new prey?

Hurry up.

leave here.

No response was received.

The girl had an extremely beautiful face. She tiptoed to the side of her bed and leaned close to his ear.

"Hi, I'm Mori Tsukisa."

Said hello.
