I Became Cinderella’s Vicious Stepsister: 57

“Beliya, I am going to see Lord Bruce later-”

“-Gaia, have you also kissed Lord Bruce’s toes with your tongue?”

Liu Yu couldn’t control the itch in her throat. If Gaia said “yes,” she decided to blame her nausea on the stale lamb chop and never kiss his lips again.

“No,” Gaia replied quietly and calmly. “Only yours.”

Liu Yu’s face immediately turned red.

Chapter 24

After Gaia finished eating, he went to see Bishop Bruce, while Liu Yu went to the library.

The library of the Temple of Light was the largest and most abundant library in the entire Erlen Continent. From the outside, it looked like a stack of open books, or three books stacked together.

Unexpectedly, there were not many people in the library.

She did see about ten white-robed gods, who greeted her warmly and called her “Little Fergus”, wishing her to graduate and enter the temple as soon as possible.

“Do you all know me?” The girl was surprised.

Since she came to the academy and the temple, she found that there was no one who didn’t know her: even the servants cleaning in the corner could accurately call out her name.

“Oh, of course, who in Soren City doesn’t know the Thorned Rose? No, no, don’t look at me like that, we gods are also a little… well, you know,” the young and handsome god leaned on the table, winking at her. “That’s how people are.”

“And when Roubi came back from Soren Academy, he said that there was another god supporter with a very pure Light Constitution appearing over there, so we did some research.”

“Alright, I accept it.”

But Liu Yu remembered the dense little book in the dormitory. She waved at the gods and went to the second floor.

Most of the books on the first floor were about national affairs, agriculture, and even Roman numerals, very pragmatic. However, Liu Yu intended to find some books on history to pass the time:

To understand a world, one must start with its history.

Unfortunately, she could only find a room full of glorious… flattery.

The heavy, vintage bookcases were neatly arranged, reaching the ceiling and the ground, filling up the entire room, but… none of them could be read.

But there were many people. They either stood or sat, each holding a book and reading it with great enthusiasm. After reading for a while, they drew a “one” symbol on their chests with their hands:

“Thanks be to God.”

“The Holy Light is everywhere.”

Liu Yu: …

“A group of ignorant lambs in captivity, oh, how pitiful.”

Suddenly, a familiar and magnetic voice sounded in her ear. A young man with black hair and black eyes leaned against a corner of the bookshelf, looking at her.

“But you are different, Miss Fergus, you naturally belong to the darkness.”

He smiled at her.

“No, I belong to the Light.”

Liu Yu never forgot to express her loyalty to the God of Light.

“Hypocrite.” Louis supported his forehead and chuckled softly. “Miss Fergus, I bet your prayers go unheard by God.”

“That is none of your business,” she muttered softly. “What are you doing here? It’s dangerous with people coming and going.”

“Is Miss Fergus worried about me?”

Louis stood straight and walked over.

The shadow of the bookcase covered most of his figure. His black silk shirt and trousers seemed to blend into the darkness, matching his excessively pale skin and deep black hair and eyes. He looked…

Liu Yu noticed that his profile resembled Gaia’s, but a more mature version of Gaia.

“No, I am worried about myself,” Liu Yu stepped back, getting out of the shadowy area under his dominant control.

Compared to this vampire who was so unpredictable and could turn aggressive at any moment, she did prefer Gaia-at least he wouldn’t suck her dry.

“Don’t worry, your sensitive lover is with Bishop Bruce and won’t come out for a while. As for the others… if they have their scepters, I’m afraid I have to be a little cautious,” Louis casually pulled out a book, flipped through a few pages, and threw it back into the bookcase. Just as Liu Yu was about to turn around and leave, he said, “The Ten Cups, Miss Fergus, be prepared for tonight.”

“I will die,” Liu Yu gritted her teeth, “and I didn’t say that it had to be fulfilled all at once.”

“Don’t worry, the great Louis the Tenth won’t let you die. At the moment your blood is draining, I will infuse you with fresh blood.”

“I don’t want to become a vampire.”

Liu Yu stared at him.

“An eternal life, everlasting youth… why not? Louis the Tenth is very picky and never easily turns someone into a clan member. You should feel honored.”

“No.”

“Why?”

Liu Yu’s fingers began to tingle, and she decided that if Louis came closer, she would take the opportunity to bombard his head with Light Bullets, even if the effectiveness was minimal.

“I don’t want to, Louis. No one can make choices for me, unless I die.”

“Well, it’s really taxing. Once a girl becomes stubborn, she’s no longer cute. My Natasya is much better…” Louis sighed.
