He seemed to be pleased by her words:
“So?”
“So, in order to prevent the great Duke from getting upset and wanting to crush me like an ant, I wrote a letter and handed it to a reliable person, instructing him to send it to the Temple of Light in case something happens to me. How about that? Interesting, isn’t it?”
Louis clapped his hands:
“Very interesting, Miss Fergus always brings me surprises.”
“There’s no other way. If you want to live, you have to work hard.”
“Now, you hold my secret, and I hold yours–“
“–No, I didn’t admit it. I love Gaia, and I won’t harm him.”
“Love?” In that instant, there was a strange expression on Louis’ face. “Is it the golden iris or the medicine you gave him?”
“You–“
Liyu looked at him with suspicion.
“That’s right, the great Louis is omnipotent.”
“I think, if Miss Fergus hadn’t come so quickly, that iris would have been held by Mr. Leslie, oh no, don’t glare at me, Natasha is so kind, but you always bully her. I originally wanted to take care of you myself, but unexpectedly, I saw an interesting scene.”
It turns out that Louis was originally planning to come to school to kill her, but unexpectedly stumbled upon the scene where the original body was committing the crime?
Afterwards, Natasha delivered the food and picked up the original body’s iris badge, but Louis sneakily handed it to Gaia…
The original misunderstanding was unraveled.
“Speaking of which, you were very charming when you gouged out people’s eyes.”
Duke Louis looked at the pale, seemingly desperate girl in front of him and smiled faintly.
“Drugging…”
Suddenly, Liyu remembered something, ran to the desk, and rummaged through the drawer to find the canine tooth inside–
She took it off after that day. But to be on the safe side, she put it on again for another crystal ball test.
The Bright Academy had a barrier, and he couldn’t enter without a medium.
And the medium belonging to the darkness could only be brought in by her with memory beads and bird feathers.
Last time, it seemed as if Louis had lost, but in fact, it was her…
She fell for it.
“Smart girl, without you, I can’t enter.”
“What do you want?”
But Louis suddenly mentioned something:
“Does Miss Fergus know what a holy spirit body is?”
“I do.”
“No, you don’t.” Louis shook his head, “The old undead in the temple think that the gods are kind, but they don’t know that in the eyes of the gods, everything is just a game…he doesn’t love anyone. When he gets tired of it, he overturns the game… occasionally, he might create a perfect body, give it a soul, teach it knowledge, and send it to the mortal realm as a substitute for divinity.”
“This kind of body is called a holy spirit body.”
Liyu fell silent for a moment and thought, this holy spirit body is different from before: he is the incarnation of the god himself.
“So what?” she asked.
“Your medicine has no effect on the holy spirit body.”
“Impossible!”
Liyu instinctively retorted.
But when she remembered the original plot, indeed…the influence on Gaia was minimal.
Her face turned pale.
“No, it’s not useless, it’s just that you’re missing one thing.”
“What?”
“My blood.”
It is said that the blood of vampires has a hallucinogenic effect and loves virgins, so even though it was only a painful bloodsucking, it felt like a beautiful dream.
Liyu knew that he was right.
Louis lowered his head gently, and Liyu could feel his warm breath spraying on the back of her neck.
“You like Natasha.” She carefully chose her words, “But I think you should be able to see that Natasha loves Gaia, so helping me is helping yourself.”
“Deals aren’t calculated like this.”
Louis walked up to her, his newly grown teeth were as white as jade. “I want your blood.”
“Mine?”
“Yes.” Louis lowered his head and gradually approached her. “…I only tasted a little bit of blood last time, but even that tiny bit made me yearn for it, made my blood boil…”
“Fine.”
Liyu picked up the enamel cup and pinched her previously injured palm with it.
Drop by drop, the blood fell into the enamel cup.
Louis couldn’t help but take a step forward, and the air was filled with a captivating fragrance, reminiscent of poppy fields, full of greedy and sinful desires.
Disgust, but also desire.
“Half a cup for your drop.”
Louis’ pupils were extremely dark, extremely intense, and looked very eerie:
“Good.”
Chapter 15: Perfect
The banquet was held by the side of Lake Berner.
In the light and water of the lake, the “stars” were lit up one by one. The stars were wrapped in a transparent medium that felt like Qiu Qiu’s jelly when touched, with blue water inside.
White and gold-bordered carpets were spread out, and nearby were white carved long tables filled with various desserts, colorful sparkling wine, and seasonal fruits.
Countless puffy skirts and tailcoats shuttle through them.
When Liyu held Gaia’s arm and entered, she almost thought she had stepped into a European court drama. Shiny vessels, lively salon men and women–
She was also assigned a star.
