Academic Gathering with Lich Colleagues

Chapter 288 Gurelia
The departing Anna was like a drop of water escaping into the sea. Among the crowd, William couldn't find her back.

Even if you ask passers-by, the people around may not necessarily leave an impression on the succubus girl passing by in a hurry.This is a wandering city, where strangeness and spirits exist just like ordinary people.Here, there are always more surprises than norms.

William has no way of knowing where Anna is, but he can guess where she will stay. There are only two places where a succubus girl can call her home in the Wandering City.

One is the Bloody Rose Bar, and the other is where William is going now.

The third area of ​​darkness, the area of ​​criminal karma.

This place of right and wrong, the manager of the criminal karma demon clan, is probably the place with the highest population density on the chaotic side.

The place I am most familiar with, the beginning of all adventures, also starts here.

The same illegal buildings can be superimposed. Some high-rise canned houses are out of touch with the lower floors, and they need to be squeezed and held by adjacent houses to prevent them from falling.Although it was crumbling, this state of not knowing which day it would collapse persisted strangely for a long time.

The home of Succubus Ana and Candy, right here, a ramshackle little room in a canning section.

Last time, after William helped Candy get out of trouble, Candy invited him once, and William was deeply impressed by this kind of building that made the guests uneasy.

The corners of the castle in the air have been rounded out, and dozens of wooden boards stretch out to the surrounding buildings, firmly fixing itself.

On the wooden door at the front of the house, a crooked rope ladder fell down.

This is their home, because demons can fly, and this ladder is for the half-succubus candies.

The bottom of the dilapidated rope ladder is less than half a meter from the ground, and it seems to be finished after several repairs. The wooden boards of different colors indicate the number of times it has been repaired, and the variegated knots on both sides also bear the scars of time differences.It's like letting an old man who is supposed to retire go back to work, and replacing it with a new one is definitely less expensive than the repair.

"My mother left it behind, and she made the ladder herself."

This is why the siblings cherish it so much. As expected, William should be the third person to touch the top of the rope ladder.

When William's palm touched the wooden boards of the rope ladder, a wonderful whispering sound emerged in his mind.You can't discern it carefully, it's like your illusion, but the temptation to disturb the mind is produced in your heart.

You will subconsciously climb up the stairs, and the temptation will become stronger and stronger. When you reach the halfway position of the rope ladder, your mind will finally be occupied by the beauty.

You will fall down because you can't control your hands and feet.

It was the voice of Anna the Succubus, and that was her spell to protect her home.This spell has no effect on candies of the same origin, nor on William, who is immune to her charms.

However, listening to Anna whisper softly in his ear, this feeling is worth aftertaste.

Climbing up the stairs is like climbing the castle of a princess. The knight is drifting in the wind, searching for the beauty he longs for.

In no time William was at the top of the ladder, directly below the door.

Next, comes the hardest part of the whole process.

William raised his arm and knocked on the bottom of the wooden door.

two cases.

First, Anna is not there.

In the second type, Anna opened the door angrily, and kicked herself in the face angrily, trying to kick herself down.

In this case, William was already mentally prepared, and he would definitely stick to it, grab her feet, and persuade her.

As for the aftermath, William couldn't think of it.

The dull sound of knocking on the wooden plank was mixed with the creaking sound of the rope being forced to swing, and William's heart was a little silent.

Da da da.The vibration of the heel touching the floor was transmitted to William.He was delighted and at the same time, a translucent frost mask covered his face with five layers.

It can't be any more, any more will reveal its stuffing.William has never been able to understand the power of the succubus, but judging from some clues, this succubus does have all the potential of a female tyrannosaurus.

It shouldn't be so hard to trample me to death, William should not be so sure about this now.

The uneasiness did not last long in William's heart, because the wooden door had already opened above his head.

Maybe in every dark corner, sooner or later there will be a ray of light shining on that location.In this smoky urban area, above his own head.William saw the light.

It was the faint light shining through the gaps in the pavilion, like a hazy veil draped over Anna's face.Tranquil and gentle, her curved eyelashes, which can hang tears, spread out like flower buds, and her jewel-like eyes stared at William, pure and unblemished.

Looking at Anna like this, all William's plans were shocked and left behind.A succubus actually had a sense of holiness, even though she was still beautiful, alluring and enchanting.Those eyes seemed to be out of touch with this seductive and depraved body, involving William's soul.

As for the reason why William returned to normal... Because of William's angle, Anna's upright chest, and the slight ups and downs of her breathing would block their gaze.There is no excess waist, plump thighs, and those high heels.

Five layers of ice don't seem to be enough.

"An...Anna, I'm sorry..." Stumbled and said the pre-planned lines, William had already stretched out his right hand to defend, although others saw it as if he wanted to touch her thigh.

William's palm was held together with a soft hand.

"Anna?"

"Aren't you tired?" It felt like I was holding the boom of a crane with one hand, and Anna lifted William up with the other. "Come up and talk about it." Without physical pain or verbal scolding, the gentle Anna hugged William up.

That's right, a hug.Because of the insecurity that his body weight was being manipulated, William subconsciously grabbed the support around him, which was Anna, out of biological instinct.Enveloping her in his arms, the soft body fits his slightly sweaty body, those beautiful eyes are in front of him, the girl's body fragrance has been integrated into his breath, as long as he bows his head a little, William can Feeling... the feeling of being pierced by a devil's horn.

A man and a woman hugged each other, and William knew that Anna must have heard his beating heartbeat, as if he could feel her arms folded behind his back.

"Hold... sorry, I'll step back immediately."

"Back back and you'll fall." Anna didn't let go of her arm, and this posture lasted for a few seconds, until the cold wind was blocked by the closed wooden door, and William came back to his senses.

The two sat at a wooden table, looking at each other.Anna is like a different person.

"It's me who should apologize, William, and I shouldn't have interfered in your business."

"No, Anna, I..." I didn't know what excuse to refute you for a while.

Anna had a smile on her face, resting her cheek on her elbow, watching William's embarrassment, but not teasing him.

"William, you are an excellent person. I believe this is not my personal feeling. Everyone in Bloody Rose has fallen in love with you after getting along with each other for less than a month. Your magic makes you a unique and meaningful person. Charismatic man. I...maybe a little too eagerly, the Conclave, is indeed your best home. I don't want to see you pass up that opportunity, William, or I will feel sorry for you. I... I am very grateful With your help to Candy, Candy has become a lot more cheerful recently."

"Candy has helped me a lot, we are mutually beneficial."

"Yeah, when I saw you getting along with Candy, I was a little jealous."

William didn't understand what was going on at all, and suddenly Anna seemed to be a different person, and the two communicated like friends, like meeting for the first time.

"Anna, you...why did you suddenly change so much?"

Anna had a smile on her face.

"I think it's time for me to accept the fact that there is an extra handsome boy in my life, so I also want to change myself."

"Yes, is it?" Hearing Anna's politeness, William scratched his head in embarrassment.

"William," Anna stretched out her hand to hold William's palm, "I will entrust you to take care of the candy from now on."

"What about you?"

Anna's pupils shrank suddenly, and she narrowed her eyes, "I'm also looking forward to it."

William left Anna's house with a smile, broke up with Anna as a friend, and began to look forward to the future.

Anna stood in front of the door, watching the figure leaving happily, with a sweet smile on her lips.

This smile is like a mask.

Anna returned to her room and found the small box on the bottom layer of the bed.Blow off the accumulated dust and tear off the seal marked "Sister's Dowry".

Inside the box is a bracelet with a line of small characters on the inner ring.

"To my daughter, Gurelia."

Anna picked up the bracelet, spread her bat wings, and flew out.

In the sunlight, the gift from William on her neck, the witch head pendant, was shining brightly.

On the imperceptible side, in the gap between the profile of the woman's head, there is a small line of runes.

That's a name.

Gurelia Warbringer.
