There is a lord who just wants to draw cards, what's wrong with that?

Hua Hua LaLa——

When Domi returned to the castle on the top of the mountain, the rain was already heavy. The rain was so heavy that it seemed to be about to blow the roof off, and even the umbrella was about to be blown over by the wind.

He pointed the umbrella in the direction of the wind and lowered it, which made it easier for him, but he couldn't see ahead.

What difference did it make? He had walked here for seven years and could walk to the door with his eyes closed.

But since this umbrella was the smallest size, it was too small for him as he gradually grew bigger, and it still couldn't protect him from a lot of rain.

The driver wanted to hold an umbrella for Domi, but Domi was considerate of his family and insisted on doing it himself. After all, no one wants to get wet.

However, at this moment, the sound of footsteps mixed with the sound of rain, getting closer and closer...

A pair of white leather shoes came into view, and when I looked up, it was Xia holding a bigger umbrella!

"you……"

"Really? You're still going out on a rainy day. Give me the small umbrella and you hold this one."

In this way, the two of them held the same umbrella, their bodies so close that they seemed to be able to feel each other's breathing and heartbeat.

The soft light from the castle lengthened their silhouettes.

Domi matched Xia's pace, and Xia matched Domi's speed, but they actually walked even slower.

However, it feels pretty good to walk in the rain like this.

Chapter 119 Please listen to my excuse!

Chapter 119-118- Please listen to my excuse!

Both of their shoes were soaked. When they walked into the door, Domi found two pairs of slippers and two dry towels already placed at the entrance.

When Domi was sorting out his clothes and putting his umbrella in a special place, Xia was already standing on the steps outside the entrance, taking Domi's slippers down from where they were placed and placing them in the most suitable place for changing shoes.

He walked up to Xia and accepted Xia's hair-wiping service while changing his shoes:

"Did you expect this?"

She took the towel and continued to wipe Domi:

"I just heard from the maid that you went out, and it looked like it was going to rain. Calculating the time, you will definitely be soaked when you come back."

"Look, it's as expected~"

Domi laughed. Hearing this, he seemed to see Xia standing at the upstairs window, waiting for him to come home.

This feeling is like that of an old married couple.

Similar experiences have happened before.

When he was younger, he always encouraged Edward and Argyle to run to the garden to play on rainy days. When they came back, Grace would wait at the gate with a few maids, drying their hair with towels while scolding them.

My childhood here is much more interesting than my previous life, and most importantly, it is full of love and care from others.

"What are you giggling about?"

"Nothing, I just like it this way."

Looking at Domi's smile from the bottom of her heart, Xia couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. She didn't notice that Domi had taken the towel from her hand, and stood behind her like a host, helping her wipe her hair.

"You got a little wet when you came here, let me wipe it off for you~"

"How can you rub it like this? It's all frizzy... I'll do it myself!" Xia said angrily with a slightly red face.

"Haha sorry sorry~"

"Okay, go back and take a shower, be careful not to catch a cold."

"Why are you like my mom?"

"If you can't speak, stop talking and get out of here!"

Domi fled in panic, returned to his room, took out the clothes he wanted to change, went into his bathroom, and soon came out steaming.

After coming back from the rain, the most comfortable thing is to take a bath. I feel my whole body is much more relaxed and my mood has improved a lot.

He sat calmly at his desk, looking at the darkening sky outside the window and the rain blurring the window frames, with the sound of raindrops falling in his ears. It was a perfect atmosphere!

At this moment, he didn't want to do anything except stare blankly.

However, not long after, there was a knock on the door.

When I opened the door, I saw it was Xia. She had changed into a white floral dress, and her long rose-red hair was still a little wet. It was obvious that she had just taken a shower. She was holding two bottles of hot milk in her hands.

She raised her glass of milk and said, "I've brought a 'meeting gift' with me. Wouldn't you welcome me in and have a seat?"

Domi seemed to be cooperating on purpose:

"Why are you here if you want to? Why bring a gift? Xia, you are such a fool~~"

"Looking for a fight..."

ding~~

The two of them sat on the edge of the bed, clinked their glasses, and drank the milk in a few gulps.

I have to say, after taking a shower and drinking something, I do feel much better. Girls are really thoughtful. He was just in a daze and couldn't think so much in his mind.

"You came here specially, you don't just want to drink some milk here, right?"

"Of course~ Do you still remember why I wanted to stay in the castle on the top of the mountain?"

Domi quickly remembered:

"Oh! The Book of Emblems, right? I think there is such a thing. I've been busy lately and almost forgot about it."

"I was afraid you would forget, so I came here myself..." Xia's words were filled with deep helplessness, and a sense of disappointment as if she had failed to make good use of her talents.

This idiot didn't even know how to use this excuse to find me! She had to be the first one to take the initiative!

Domi apologized, stood up and took out a brand new book from the desk drawer.

Xia took the heavy book and said, "I remember it was just a fragment, right?"

"The scrolls on auction are indeed fragments, but do you remember what the last king of the Urumun Dynasty did to me in that small room?"

"He...gave you some knowledge, and then tried to take over your body?"

"Yes, after I erased his consciousness, I obtained all his memories, including the complete Book of Heraldry. It was written by a royal scholar during the heyday of the dynasty, so I wrote it all down."

"Don't you like studying ancient knowledge? Now you can study it to your heart's content!"

Xia suddenly felt that the book in her hand was a little heavier.

"Why? You could have just given me the fragments. After all, that knowledge is your private property, so priceless and precious..."

"Why should there be so many conventions between friends? Didn't you give me the Soul Eater's Blade? This book is your return gift."

Friends...return gift...

Such unfamiliar words. Xia couldn't remember the last time she used them.

From some point on, all her actions had a clear purpose, even giving Domi the Soul Eater blade was for the purpose of "verification".

Being as direct as him...is it really possible?

If she had not had close contact with Domi, even if she had been secretly observing him for three years, she would still be skeptical. But now, after going through so much together, she chose to believe it for the first time in a long time.

Believe that Domi is really the person who can make me completely let down my guard and disguise, and believe in his purity.

She hugged the book to her bosom, holding it tightly in her hands:

"Thank you, thank you... I will definitely study it carefully!"

"Well, if it's Xia, I believe you can definitely study it more thoroughly than me."

At this time, Xia looked up at Domi and asked suspiciously:

"So you've learned all of them?"

"Yeah, it's amazing that ancient technology can still be used today."

"And you even used it!?"

"Yeah, it's already engraved on my body."

Xia's eyes suddenly lit up: "Please let me see it!"

So Domi reached out and started to take off his clothes. Since he had just taken a shower, he was only wearing a thin white shirt. When he unbuttoned the buttons, Domi's solid six-pack abs and the Qilin stepping ghost on his chest were exposed.

"Wow~" she exclaimed. The shyness of a little girl had long been thrown away. Now she only had a fanatical desire for knowledge.

"Can I touch it?"

Domi hesitated for a second before agreeing.

Xia's hands are delicate and white, with pink and tender nails, without any extra oil, and they feel itchy when they touch her skin...

After just playing around with it for a while, she came to the conclusion:

"It's a pretty cool tattoo, but it's not magical. The real work should be the 'pigment' used in the tattoo, right?"

Domi was a little surprised, but he felt relieved when he thought about Xia's reputation outside.

"As expected of a genius girl with a mind close to that of a demon, she understood it at a glance."

"Don't call me that. Genius girl or something is nothing but a burden," Xia showed a complicated expression: "The higher you praise me, the harder I fall. However, praising me highly does me no good at all. The reward is not proportional to the effort. It is just a shackle imposed on me by the world."

Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Duomi quickly apologized and retracted his statement.

"Hmm~ Good to know, this won't happen again~"

She turned playful again, and Domi breathed a sigh of relief. This was the Xia he was familiar with.

"Oh, by the way, since you have already studied the Book of Heraldry, can I study it in your room? It will be convenient for me to ask you if I don't understand."

"Of course, if Her Royal Highness the Princess doesn't mind."

So, the scene became Domi lying on the bed in a daze, while Xia sat at the desk, turned on the magic lamp and 'read at night'. The two of them were in the same room without any sense of incongruity, each doing their own thing and not disturbing each other.

The heavy rain outside the window showed no signs of stopping and seemed to be getting even heavier. It looked like a good atmosphere for sleeping.

He felt his eyelids becoming heavy, and he tilted his head, spread his hands, and fell asleep on his back.

I don’t know how long it took me to wake up from my deep sleep. The reason for my illness was the urge to urinate, after all, I drank milk before going to bed.

I opened my eyes and sat up, only to find that the desk lamp was still on. It was one in the morning! Xia had upgraded from "reading by candlelight at night" to "studying hard"!

He was about to fall down, but he was able to stand up miraculously, just like himself in the classroom, when he was under the tyranny of the head teacher but was extremely sleepy.

Domi yawned and walked behind Xia, patting her shoulder gently:

"It's already late, go to bed early, it's not like I won't show it to you anymore."

Xia turned her head and obvious dark circles could be seen under her eyes, but her expression was still full of excitement and excitement. She was simply extremely happy!

“This is very interesting.”

"Read one more chapter, then go to sleep..."

"Sleeping in late is bad for your health," Duomi sighed. "You must be hungry after using your brain for so long. Do you want a midnight snack? I'll make it for you."

"Can you cook?"

"Woman, you are looking down on me."

"Okay, then...thank you in advance."

"I'll let you know in advance that I only know how to make omelette rice..."

Less than half an hour later, Duomi brought the hot omelette rice.

In fact, it doesn’t take long to make an omelette rice, fifteen minutes at most. You just have to be careful when carrying it, and our house is too big, so most of the time is spent walking around.

crunch~

He pushed open the door, and the aroma immediately spread to every corner of the room:

"Omurice is here~"

With Catherine's previous experience as a lesson, and also because of Xia's beating on him afterwards because of his clothes being torn and his moans, Domi deliberately did not use Master Soma Yukihira's unique craftsmanship for the omelette rice this time.

But the technology is there, so it won’t be that bad.

"Ah?"
