"A wise choice," Leon smiled. "As expected of the [Blade of Babel], your flexible moral standards have opened the door to benefits for you..."
"I will bring her here within three days," Perlis stood up and looked at Leon, "but I can't guarantee that she will be alive."
"Ah... it's indeed troublesome. If she dies, it won't matter." Leon shook his head with some regret, and looked at Perlis humorously, "If she dies, then you won't be able to spend as much as you want in the upper city."
"make a deal."
Perlis nodded, and pulled Pace up at a speed that he couldn't even react to.
"Let's go."
"Hey, little princess..." Pace said anxiously, "Could you..."
"..Let's talk later..." Perlis said in a tone that was almost whispered, "Let's go first..."
Pace looked at the hand that Perlis was holding on to the corner of his clothes. For some reason, that hand was trembling at a weak frequency.
How did she...
"Then I'll arrange a place for you tonight," Leon waved his hand, "Get some rest and bring her back to me."
"Um..."
"Grace!" Leon waved his hand and called Grace, who had been waiting nearby, "Take these two to the hotel we booked earlier and treat them with the highest standards."
"Yes." Grace replied.
"You are smarter than I thought, [Pure White Flame]," Leon crossed his fingers and looked at Perlis, not noticing her slightly shaking legs, "I thought you would draw your sword here. I am glad you didn't do that. If you did, I would carry your body to Laplace to exchange for money."
Pearlis did not respond to Leon. She lowered her head slightly without saying a word, and followed Grace out of the reception room with Pace.
"Clap."
After the door of the reception room was closed, Leon directly picked up the opened bottle of red wine and poured it into his throat.
......
What on earth is she thinking?
Grace led Perlis and Pesce to the carriage. Along the way, Pesce stared at Perlis sitting next to him, his heart full of doubts.
No matter how many questions he asked Perlis, Perlis said nothing, but just lowered her head silently, her shoulders trembling slightly.
Could it be that...she is really going to betray Ashlia and accept Leon's olive branch?
Could it be that she...is also such a person?
Pace's heart sank slightly, and he didn't think about it any more. Grace, who was sitting opposite the two of them, also looked very nervous, as if he realized what had happened.
The hotel in the upper city was also not far from the Lion's Den. The size of the hotel was similar to that of the Saint's Hotel in Loton, but the decoration style was more classical. Grace led the two people out of the carriage, and walked into the hotel under the escort of two sharp knife lion guards, and walked towards the room that had been booked earlier:
"Senior Carly will be here soon. I told her the location," Grace said to Perlis in the corridor, "You...now..."
Perlis didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly. Grace turned his head and looked at the two guards following behind him, and swallowed his saliva.
Soon, they arrived in front of Room 13. Grace handed the three keys to Perlis, gave some instructions, bowed to her and Pace, and left with two guards.
Pace and Perlis were the only ones left in front of the door of the room. Perlis still kept her head down and said nothing.
"Little princess?" Pace was a little surprised. After all, she had been like this all the way. "What's wrong with you?"
Perlis picked up a key, her hands shaking badly. She tried to insert the key into the door lock, but failed again and again. The key head kept hitting the edge of the door lock and couldn't get in.
"Little Princess?" Pace was a little panicked, "Hey, wait, you..."
"Clap."
The key fell on the carpet, followed by Perlis's knees - she suddenly knelt on the floor, gasping for breath:
“Haha…ha…”
Pearlis gently covered her chest and breathed heavily. She was obviously trying her best to suppress her loss of composure and struggled to stand up.
"Little princess?"
Pace quickly glanced at the end of the corridor, and after confirming that the people from the Sharp Knife Lion had left, he quickly picked up the key and opened the door in no time. Then, he quickly helped Perlis up and took her inside.
"Little Princess!?"
Pes quickly helped Perlis to the bed, but she couldn't even sit still. Her legs went limp and she fell down the bed. Pes hurriedly turned Perlis over. Her eyes were rolling up slightly and her body was twitching slightly.
"Ah...ah ah..."
Perlis held onto the edge of the bed tightly with her hands, trembling slightly, as if she was enduring some intense pain. Beads of sweat emerged from her forehead, dripping down the contours of her cheeks, soaking her clothes.
"pain..."
"Hey! Perlis, what's wrong with you?!" Pace shook Perlis anxiously, "Hey! What's wrong with you..."
"Get out of the way!"
A sharp female voice came from behind him. Pace turned his head and found that it was Carly running towards him at a fast speed.
"Miss Carly! Perlis..." Pace seemed to have seen a savior, and his speech became stammering, "She came out of the lion's den and..."
"I know," Carly said calmly, kneeling down beside Perlis and quickly pulling out a tube of blue solvent from her waist. "This is Red Sugarcane's withdrawal reaction. She must have used that stuff when she was fighting the Great Prophet."
Carly flicked the blue solvent lightly, then pulled out a small can from her waist, pried it open with her thumb, grabbed a small amount of red powder from it, dropped it into the solution, and shook it gently.
"Open your mouth," Carly said, prying Perlis' mouth open with her hands, "Drink."
“Gurgle..Gurgle…”
Perlis drank the solution obediently - in fact, she had no choice but to do so, because she had no choice at all. After the solution went down her throat, her body slowly calmed down. She raised her head slightly, leaned against the bed, and looked at Carly with a little unfocused eyes:
"Carly..."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Carly scolded sternly, "If I had known that you used red sugar cane, I would have prepared the medicine for you in advance."
"I... forgot... hehe..."
"Don't forget this kind of thing, understand?" Carly gently stroked Perlis's bangs and wiped her sweaty forehead. "Stupid... When did the withdrawal reaction start?"
"Just... with Zachamos..."
"It's been so long? You deserve it! I told you not to tell me!" Carly cursed, took out a towel from her waist and wiped Perlis's cheek, "I told you countless times not to be so arrogant, but you insisted on being reckless. Why don't you let the pain teach you a lesson?"
"Carly is here anyway..."
"What if I'm not here? You've forgotten about Thebit again."
"..."
Perlis' words reminded Pace of the scene at that time, and he suddenly realized: No wonder Perlis has consistently chosen to avoid fighting since then... Because if a fight really breaks out, they will inevitably be defeated due to the side effects of red sugarcane on Perlis.
Thinking back to those unforgettable tense moments, Pace suddenly felt a chill. It almost went wrong...
"Little princess... you can't be so stubborn," Pess looked at Perlis and sighed helplessly, "It won't take long for Miss Carly to prepare a potion. How uncomfortable must you have been on this journey?"
"Time is...very tight..." Perlis panted softly, "If I don't hurry up, then maybe..."
Before Perlis finished speaking, she smiled gently at Pess. Pess hadn't seen her smile for a long time. Since entering the territory of La Vatino, she seemed to have turned back into [Pure White Fireworks]. But at this time, the girl's smile did not make Pess feel happy at all, but made him feel a little distressed.
This girl... is she so anxious because she is afraid that I can't deal with Zacamos? Pace slowly lowered his head and suddenly felt ashamed. I am not strong enough, so I let her act so arrogantly.
Perlis is just a sister who likes to show off.
"I'll get you some water," Pace stood up, "Miss Carly, help her to bed. We can talk about anything tomorrow."
"Oh? Are you so considerate all of a sudden?" Carly glanced at Pace with disdain and nodded, "Go quickly and come back soon."
"Well, wait for me."
After saying that, Pess left the room and went to get some water for Pearlis.
......
8) False Idols (Part 13)
"Ah...poor little weak creature~"
With Carly's help, Perlis was helped to the bed. Because of the withdrawal reaction, Perlis's face was pale, and her originally fair skin looked a little pale, looking very pitiful.
Even so, what awaited her afterwards was still not a peaceful sleep, but a "thorough examination of her injuries" by Carly.
To be more specific, Perlis was forced by Carly to take off her clothes and let Carly check her injuries.
“Ouch…it hurts…”
Perlis blushed and turned her head away slightly. Carly was leaning her head against her neck, examining the wound she had sustained when Zachamos knocked her unconscious. The warm breath gently sprayed on Perlis's fair skin, causing waves of itchiness. Perlis twisted her legs under the cup restlessly, like a naked little loach.
"Um..Carly..."
"The wound is not big. It should be caused by some kind of needle tool," Carly said softly. She touched the skin on the side of Perlis' neck with her fingers, causing her to shudder slightly. "Didn't it bleed afterwards?"
"Um...no...no..." Perlis was very embarrassed.
"Then it's okay." Carly raised her head, took out a tube of ointment from the tool bag on her waist, and gently squeezed some on her hand. "This part is most likely to leave sequelae. If there is no problem here, then nothing serious will happen."
After that, Carly began to apply medicine to every wound on Perlis' body. Her fingers stained with ointment gently stroked Perlis' skin, very gently.
Although Carly said "nothing serious will happen", she still frowned angrily when she saw the purple pinhole on Perlis's forearm:
"That bastard... actually dared to draw your blood," Carly gently grabbed Perlis's arm and applied medicine to her, "If I had known I would have gone into the Colosseum with you, I really wanted to give him a couple of hits as well."
"No, Carly," Perlis said seriously, "You are the only one who can grasp the flow of information around you. If you had come in at the same time, I would not have been able to make an accurate estimate of the battle situation. In this case..."
"I'm just saying this, idiot," Carly tapped Perlis's forehead gently, "I feel sorry for you, idiot. You hurt yourself again, and I have to spend a lot of time to treat you again."
"Um..." Perlis covered her forehead with her hands, looking down, "Sorry to bother you..."
"No trouble, Your Highness Little White Flower," Carly skillfully applied medicine to Perlis's arm, "Who is Carly Philos? Your exclusive medical kit~"
"Pfft..." Perlis laughed amusedly, "What a beautiful medical kit."
"You are pretty. Pretty people are all stupid. Look at you."
"You are the same!"
"I'm not as pretty as you, so I'm not as stupid as you~"
Carly stood up and clapped her hands neatly, then shifted her gaze to Perlis' legs under the quilt:
"Okay, there are no more wounds on your upper body. Lift up the quilt and let me see how your legs are."
"Eh!" Perlis suddenly covered her face with the quilt, and the fading red tassels once again adorned her cheeks, "Carly... I... I can see for myself..."
Seeing Perlis's awkward and somewhat shy appearance, Carly was stunned. After a while, she realized that Perlis was unwilling to lift the quilt because she was shy, which made her angry and amused:
"Hahahaha, idiot, are you still shy with me?"
"Carly is a pervert!" Perlis pursed her lips in indignation, "I won't show it to you!"
"Wow, I just wanted to see your body, you're already a grown-up!" Carly teased, pretending to be surprised. "How many times have you been exposed to me? When Thebite came back, you were in a daze, and I gave you a bath! I even helped you change your clothes!"
"Well...it was then...but it's not possible now!" Perlis stammered, firmly objecting.
Seeing that Perlis was really resisting, Carly put her hands on her hips and looked helplessly at the little white flower whose face was already burning red with her icy blue eyes. Such a shy little girl turned out to be a [Pure White Fireworks]. If you tell others about it, it will really make people laugh...
"Okay," Carly waved her hand and turned around, "Then you can see for yourself. Anyway, remember to apply the ointment. It's very effective. It can make your wound skin beautiful again in one day."
"Then...then you go out first!" Perlis pointed to the door firmly.
Carly glanced at the door, sighed, then turned around and walked towards it.
Seeing that Carly finally left, Perlis finally breathed a sigh of relief. She lowered her head slightly, ready to check if her ankle was swollen.
"Little—white—flower!!"
The air was disturbed, it was murderous! Perlis looked up suddenly and caught a glimpse of Carly braking to a stop beside the bed.
The next second, the quilt covering Perlis's lower body was lifted up high and bloomed in the air, as if a white flower finally revealed its pistil.
"Eh?"
A chill came over her, and for a moment, Perlis didn't seem to realize what was happening. The next second, her face immediately turned red.
"Carly!!!"
“Hahahahaha!! Don’t move! I’ll fix it for you soon!”
“Ahhhh!! Pervert!!”
......
Pace was very tactful and waited at the door for a long time before he finally mustered up the courage, cleared his throat, and knocked on the door:
