Chapter 496 Future Lucy: Where Are There Ten Thousand Dragons? Layla(2/4)
"Actually, Miss Layla has always been like this. It's just that after Miss Layla met Lord Jiude, shouldered the responsibility of the Heartfilia family, and got you, Miss Layla, Miss Layla became calm.
Already..."
Just when Lucy looked at her mother with shocked eyes, a maid came to Lucy and spoke with a smile.
"Um?!"
Lucy heard the sound and saw the maid who was speaking. She had long green hair and a face that looked about thirty years old. However, Lucy could infer from the tone of the other person's voice that the maid in front of her was related to her mother.
They are about the same age.
"You, you are?!"
Lucy looked at the maid in front of her and was slightly stunned. She always felt that she had seen the maid in front of her somewhere, but she couldn't remember the name of the maid in front of her.
"I am Grandme! I am Miss Layla's stand-in maid. Miss Lucy, don't you remember me?! I obviously hugged you Lucy when I was little~"
"It really makes me sad..."
The green-haired maid was naturally Grandme. At this moment, Grandme looked at Lucy looking at her for a long time, unable to say her name, and said with a slightly sad look.
"Hug, sorry..."
"In the world I live in, my mother... passed away when I was very young! After that, my father dismissed all my mother's personal maids! Because my father was afraid and missed others when he saw things..."
Lucy first apologized softly to Grandme, and then told Layla and others about the situation of her world in an understatement.
"Lucy, I'm sorry. It seems that you have endured too much in the world you live in..."
When Layla heard that she, in the world where Lucy from another world lived in front of her, died very early, she did not feel any sadness. Instead, she expressed her apology to her daughter. She regretted that she could not
She took care of her daughter and grew up. At the same time, she also regretted that she in that world could not see her daughter grow up.
"No! Mother, you don't owe me anything!"
"On the contrary, I was too ignorant when I was a child! I am very satisfied if I can see my mother again in this world!"
After listening to Layla's words, Lucy shook her head repeatedly, and then she looked at her mother Layla with an extremely serious face, expressing her thoughts and feelings for Layla.
"..."
In this regard, Layla didn't say anything else. She just gently held Lucy in her arms and caressed the back of Lucy's head, just like she did when Lucy was a child, gently hugging and coaxing Lucy.
Time passed minute by minute...
Lucy didn't know when she fell asleep, but when Lucy opened her eyes again, the sky had turned from day to night.
"Ara~"
"Lucy, are you awake?"
Layla, who was reading a book, smiled a little when she saw Lucy waking up on her lap, and greeted Lucy gently.
"Mother mother..."
"How many hours did I sleep?!"
Lucy's eyes were bleary-eyed at the moment. She had just woken up and seemed to be still a little unconscious. At this moment, she was greeting her mother, Leila, in a hazy state.
"You slept for about four hours, which is not long..."
"Just in time, it's time for dinner in a moment! Our family hasn't gotten together for a meal for a long time."
Layla stroked Lucy's little head and spoke softly.
"It's been four hours already?!"
At this time, Lucy also completely woke up from her sleep. After listening to Layla's words, her expression flashed with shock, and then she immediately broke away from Layla's arms.
"Mother, I know your good intentions, but I can't wait any longer! My companions are still waiting for me to save them. Maybe one second every night, one of them will die! I can't, while they are doing this,
When I am working hard, I am here alone to enjoy peace and tranquility! Although I don’t like war and blood, that is my destination.”
Lucy straightened her body and looked resolutely. If everything in front of her was a dream, she hoped that this dream could be longer, and it would be best to keep having it, but no! The world she was in was now in danger.
She can't carry her companions behind her back and enjoy peace. She must find a way to save those companions who trust her!
"Lucy..."
After hearing Lucy's words, Layla's eyes flashed with emotion. Layla knew that her precious daughter had grown up.
"Lucy, I told you, I will solve your problem!"
"Besides, your opponent is ten thousand dragons. Even if you leave now, you will definitely not be the opponent of ten thousand dragons!"
"Besides, as long as you make good use of the Eclipse Gate, you can completely avoid the outcome of the 10,000-headed dragon invading the royal capital, and eliminate all dangers invading your world!"
"Lucy trust me..."
Layla looked at the grown-up Lucy. She stood up gently, gently touched Lucy's cheek with her white palms, and persuaded softly.
"this……"
After hearing what Layla said, Lucy's expression flashed with hesitation.
However, Lucy could not resist Layla's expectant eyes after all. She could only confess silently in her heart: "I'm sorry, just let me enjoy this beautiful dream-like life for one last time! Please!"
"Take the young lady to take a bath, and help the young lady change her clothes."
Layla saw the hesitation in Lucy's eyes, and without giving Lucy any time to think, she directly gave the order to the maids behind her.
"As you command!"
As Layla's words fell, one after another the maids suddenly walked over to Lucy, and pulled Lucy towards the bathhouse in the distance.
"Eh?! Wait, I..."
For a moment, Lucy was half pushed and taken to the bathtub by the maids.
"Wow~ Miss Lucy's skin is so smooth~"
"Miss Lucy, how do you take care of your skin? It's so white!"
"As expected of Lady Leila's daughter, even her skin is so good..."
As Lucy entered the bathroom, there was an immediate sound in the bathroom, the sound of clothes falling off, and the teasing laughter of the maids.
"Hey! Wait, I can come alone!"
"I don't need you to help me wash that place..."
"No!!!"
As all the maids took action, Lucy's delicate voice of resistance was the only thing left in the entire bath. If there was a magician from the Fairy Tail Guild nearby at this moment, they would definitely be surprised. It turns out that Lucy
, can also make such a charming sound.
after an hour……
From head to toe, every detail had been cleaned by the maids. She was wearing a gorgeous dress and her hair was carefully taken care of. She looked like a noble lady. Lucy had already arrived in front of Layla.
At this moment, Lucy was wearing a gorgeous dress, and her body was twisted in every possible way. She was a little uncomfortable with this young lady's dress, although to be precise, she was an aristocratic lady, and the kind that had been passed down for hundreds of years.
Yes, the eldest lady from a wealthy family.
"This is so decent!"
In this regard, even Jiude, who has always been known as a venomous tongue and a strict father, couldn't help but nodded after looking at Lucy.
"So shameful..."
In response, Lucy's face turned red with embarrassment, and she sat uneasily in her seat.
At first, it was a little difficult for Lucy to integrate into the atmosphere of the Heartfilia family's dinner party. However, after a few minutes, Lucy was like Layla and Jiude, smiling and chewing slowly, and at the same time
Occasionally chatting with her mother and father, all I can say is that Lucy is a bloodline of the Heartfilia family after all...
After Lucy had a relaxing and pleasant meal with her mother and father, she chatted with Layla and Jiude for a long time. She talked about what she had seen and heard over the years, and about herself.
During the happy time in the Fairy Tail guild, Lucy knew that her father Jiude was just an ordinary person and did not understand magic, so she deliberately concealed the S-class mage exam on Tenrou Island and what happened after that...
Layla and Jiude listened to the stories Lucy told, nodding from time to time. They listened very carefully. It was obvious that Leila and Jiude were also very interested in their daughter's adventures. The most important thing is,
Layla and Jiude want to hear about Lucy's experiences over the years and whether there is anything unpleasant...
But fortunately, Lucy didn't seem to encounter any unpleasant things in the guild. It seemed that every bit of Lucy's time in the Fairy Tail Guild made Lucy extremely happy.
Soon, night falls...
Leila and Jiude finally returned to their respective rooms and fell asleep.
Of course Lucy also returned to her room under the leadership of the maid.
"Miss Lucy, this is your room~"
Grame, who was the head maid of the Heartfilia family, personally sent Lucy back to her room and spoke kindly to Lucy.
Lucy looked at the room she was in and sighed in her heart. This room was exactly the same as the room in her own world. It could be seen that her character in this world was the same as hers, extremely bad.
"Aunt Grame, thank you very much~"
"You should also go back and rest early!"
Lucy entered the room and sighed, then smiled at Grammie behind her.
To be continued...
