When you come home from a busy day and are so tired that you want to just lie down on the street, if there is a cute girl wearing a lace maid outfit, smiling sweetly, welcoming you at the door.
"Master, welcome home, should you eat first, take a bath first, or..."
Ahem, all male compatriots understand the rest.
I admit, I am a complete maid addict, but a man must have some hobbies!
"If a man doesn't change his attitude, is he still a normal man?!"
When I said this confidently and asked Eliza to fulfill her daily "welcoming duty" and "wake-up call", of course, it was the healthy version. What can I do with just one bone? But she looked at me as cold as a
The look in my eyes is still unforgettable, and what followed was a month of cold violence.
Even, in order to make her wear a maid uniform every day, I not only threatened her with the kindness of raising her, but also almost knelt down and hugged her thigh... Ahem, did I say anything?
In a sense, well, from a gentleman's perspective, Eliza's "education" was a complete failure.
"I don't understand. She was so well-behaved and cute when she was a child, but she turned into an iron maiden like Margaret when she grew up."
Over the years, except when she was a little girl, she really did whatever I said. She always smiled sweetly and said, "Welcome home, Master," and "Be careful on the road, Master." But when she became a little more sensible, that child
The passage of time has become a dark history that immediately goes berserk as soon as it is mentioned.
Now, the familiar coldness under those silver eyes has melted. The girl held up her skirt and spoke my favorite line in a sweet voice. She was perfect in terms of appearance and attitude. She was simply the perfect maid of my dreams.
But I felt a chill on my back and all the goosebumps came up.
"This time, I might really die..."——
Ten minutes later, I was lying in the yard of the old house, enjoying myself, looking at the familiar scenery around me, and I felt more and more trance-like.
I am not a newbie who has not seen big scenes. I have seen a lot of fields and environments. I have seen hundreds of mental worlds that are extremely different from reality. However, the old house in front of me is exactly the same as in my memory.
reality.
The black pearl grapes on the vines behind are rare magical plants that are bitter and unpalatable. However, if they are brewed, they are not only delicious, but can also have a wonderful effect in calming souls. They are also a very rare potion material.
Black pearl wine is also a "food" that only a few high-level undead can enjoy.
In order to successfully grow it, I spent a lot of energy. This garden was designed for it, but if I had moved it to the same place, it would have died instantly. But now, those black and small grapes are just like in my memory.
are generally the same.
The most incomprehensible thing is not the demonized plant itself, but the shelf under the vine.
The pillar on the far left has a series of knife marks on it, hundreds of them densely packed, which is the trajectory of someone's growth, and now, it is exactly the same as before.
The emergence of illusions and the projection of the mental world all have requirements for the controller. What the controller knows and remembers can only exist in the mental world. Even if it is not like that in reality, as long as the obsession is deep enough, reality can be rewritten.
But looking at it from another perspective, if the controller does not know or pay attention, it will naturally be missed.
The familiar bitter taste of requiem wine danced on the tip of my tongue. This thing is poisonous to the living, but I fell into memories.
There are many small details that Eliza could not have noticed back then, but now they are all in front of me, as if she is truly in control of the world. I have never heard of such an ability. Such Eliza,
I can’t see through it more and more...
"Stop guessing, this is the old house in Sulfur Mountain City. I went back and brought it out directly."
"Ahem! If I had told you earlier, I would have almost choked to death."
A mouthful of old blood spurted out, and probably, at that moment, there was only the word "Embarrassed" written in capital letters on my face.
When I calmed down and took one last look at this familiar scenery, I felt even more reluctant to leave. How could this girl be so wasteful? If we fight later, wouldn't everything be ruined? This is my hometown.
Yes, when the fight started, I knew from the moment I saw Eliza that it was impossible to be nice this time. Not only was I deceived, I was also deceived by the person I trusted the most.
But some things have to be faced in the end...
"Eliza, no, Cynthia, when did you start your alliance with Cavins?!"
I smiled and asked the question with anger. What I expected was a negative answer, but sometimes, the reality is so cruel.
The Eliza in front of me is more powerful than any main god I have ever seen. There is only one possibility for this incredible power.
She, Eliza, is the victorious Daughter of the Abyss, the new generation of Chaos Goddess Cynthia.
Cavans is hunting the Daughter of the Abyss just to make the Daughter of the Abyss he chooses become the real Cynthia and gain the authority of the Goddess of Creation. I originally thought that the Daughter of the Abyss would be the King of Devils and the mother of Heloise.
, one of Leona and others.
After all, the daughter of the abyss becoming Cynthia is not a change of personality, but an individual who has completed devouring according to the law of the jungle and completed all-round improvement. It is an existence that may travel through the Lord God. If I were in Cavins's position, I would naturally let myself
People benefit.
But now, Eliza has become a new generation of Cynthia, and there is only one explanation.
"After the Hades War, he found me and we reached a common alliance on certain interests. To be honest, your brother is much easier to deal with than you."
I finally know why Eliza has been missing for a long time these days. When the hunt for the Daughter of the Abyss begins, as long as the rapidly evolving Eliza appears in front of me, everything will naturally come to light.
So, the betrayal has been at least ten years.
Perhaps, a lot of information is not leaked from the kings of the Abyss bloodline. Perhaps, my secretary is the highest-level spy.
I became more and more puzzled and even a little angry.
Common interests? What common interests do Cavins and Eliza have? Opening the door to the plane is a good thing for a bastard like Cavins who is afraid of chaos in the world, but what benefits can it bring to Eliza? I was a professor back then
Where have she forgotten all the laws and principles given to her? If Yinzhi becomes a demon, will he agree with the demon's stupid worldview and the law of the jungle?
"Your brother thinks you will be a hindrance, so he expects to restrict you, especially since he knows what you plan to do. And me, what do you think I want most?"
Eliza sat in front of me, her cheeks flushed by the unaccustomed drink, the cool breeze blew by, her long silver hair fluttered in the wind, she was as beautiful as a picture.
But her words surprised me a little.
I paused, what did Eliza want? Maybe, I never thought about it.
"What do you want? Since you were a child, I will give you whatever you want. If you have any needs, you can tell me directly?! What can Cavins give you?"
"Roland."
"What?"
Why are you calling my name at this time? But the claws of the dead cat on my head are already making my scalp hurt.
"You probably have never thought about why I follow you and sacrifice everything."
Hearing this, I fell into deep thought. Maybe I was used to her following me, but I really didn't think deeply about the reason for her loyalty.
The words were still plain, but the slight trembling of the wine glass revealed the excitement in her heart.
Taking a deep breath, Eliza decided to show her cards.
"Dynasty hegemony? Saving the world? The law of honor? Invincible power? What is the meaning of these things to a woman? Do you think that I, a woman, am so desperate that I don't even hesitate to step into the abyss, or even swallow it?
Disgusting devil’s heart, for what?”
Even if I am a pig, I should have an answer at this time, but I can't bear such an answer.
"Idiot, I am a woman. Of course, what I want is happiness for women. Roland, Cavins' promise is to give Roland to me, forever, eternity, and only... And now, you are here as expected.
Already."
The girl's cheeks were filled with a secret blush of shyness, but now my expression probably has the word "embarrassed" written all over it.
"It's true..."
The sigh of a dead cat is full of hindsight. (To be continued.)
ps: Well, there are very important and legitimate reasons for Eliza’s choice, so I won’t spoil it now.
