After being addicted to alchemy, the lady was kneeled and licked by the Duke

Devil's contract.

No matter what the request is, the price offered by the devil will always be the soul of the petitioner.

The devil's contract is checked and balanced by the laws of the world.

In other words, if the devil can force God to sign a "devil's contract", as long as the contract is established, they can even drag God's soul into hell.

Li Aili took a long breath, "Hey——"

"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Joanna asked beside her.

Li Aili said: "I remember, does Arthur particularly hate devils?"

Joanna opened her mouth but stopped talking.

Li Aili: "? What's wrong?"

Joanna hesitated for a moment, then carefully composed her words: "Before, His Highness didn't hate devils so much..."

"but……"

Li Aili was aroused by the way she hesitated to speak, "If you have anything to say, just say it. I won't be angry."

Joanna said: "It seems that it was when you just married His Highness and arrived in Constantinople."

"I also heard what Annie said..."

Li Aili frowned, it was not her at that time.

He is the original owner of this body...

No, if she and Arthur met in the Year of the Holy Dragon, then Arthur would never let anyone use her body.

She had ignored so much before.

You should find someone to ask these things clearly.

Joanna was still describing what happened that year, "At that time... although the Duke married you."

"But he almost never sees you..."

Joanna looked at Li Aili's face carefully.

"Later...once, you got a bottle of witch potion from nowhere and saved an injured bird."

"His Royal Highness was leading his troops on an expedition at that time. After learning about it, he abandoned the half-attacked noble territory and galloped back on horseback."

"Well... I know the Duke had a big quarrel with you that time."

"The Duke has hated the devil ever since."

Ellie Li: "..."

The information I heard from Joanna was vague.

Li Aili thought about it in her mind, but she really thought of a person who could ask these things.

Conard.

Li Ellie walked back and happened to meet Edward who was leading Conrad towards her.

"Conrad!" Li Ellie raised her hand and greeted.

Conard carried a black and brown leather box and walked quickly for a few steps. When he arrived in front of Li Aili, he smiled as always:
"Good day, Miss Ellie."

Li Aili was very pleasantly surprised, "Great, I was just looking for you."

"But what's the matter with you coming?"

Conard picked up the suitcase and said, "His Royal Highness Albert ordered me to transfer these things to His Highness Arthur."

"His Royal Highness Albert also has something to say, please let me convey it to His Highness Arthur."

Ellie, who has the heart of a sage, has a unique feeling for Arthur.

She sensed briefly and knew where Arthur was.

Very well, Arthur is causing trouble in the potato fields.

Li Ellie said to Conard: "Let's go, he is in the potato field."

Conrad: "...?"

Li Aili took Conard, who had a rare moment of blank expression, to the potato field behind.

I saw the knights and the children of the people standing in a circle around the potato field.

Everyone is waving flags and shouting.

"Your Highness! Come on!!"

Arthur was performing in the fields, 'destroying landmines with bare hands', no, 'destroying potatoes with bare hands'.

I saw a tall and handsome man not even wearing any armor, just a navy blue aristocratic uniform, walking leisurely in the potato field.

If Arthur stepped on a potato that was about to explode, then he would tap his foot 'gently' right after.

Then, the ground trembled slightly.

He grabbed a nearby root as strong as a small tree and lifted it gently.

A bunch of huge potatoes were pulled out easily.

Later, Edward looked confused, "???"

"Damn it! Will this potato ever be served to anyone?!" Edward was shocked.

When they entered, they were almost blown up by a series of exploding potatoes.

Why did nothing happen to the Duke when he went in? ?
"Look carefully, that little exploding potato is cracked." George, who had been watching here, turned around and said.

Really!

The potatoes that cause explosions are the ones closest to the ground and the smallest in size.

I saw that the surface of this potato was cracked.

But the other big potatoes were all safe and sound.

Edward gasped, "Hiss!"

Sensing Ellie coming.

Arthur threw the potatoes aside.

He walked out of the potato field, took the coat from George, put his arm around Ellie's shoulders naturally, then lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

Edward smiled so hard that his eyes curled up, and the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes became a little deeper.

"Conard is looking for you."

Ellie pushed Arthur shyly.

His possessiveness that breaks out anytime and anywhere...

Arthur slowly looked at Conrad.

Conard coughed lightly, "It's His Highness Albert."

So, Li Aili took Conrad and Arthur back to her simple residence, a small wooden cabin where she slept upstairs and worked downstairs.

After coming in, Conard directly placed the suitcase in his hand on the square wooden table.

"This is what Albert asked me to pass on to you."

After saying that, Conrad put his hand on the metal buckle that opened the suitcase.

Arthur immediately asked: "What is this?"

There was a clear "click" sound, and Conard opened the suitcase while answering Arthur's question:

"Some public..."

Before he finished speaking, I saw the official documents in the suitcase rushing out of the small suitcase in a tsunami-like manner...

"arts."

When the last word fell, the ground and the table were covered with parchment scrolls.

Li Aili lowered her head with a confused expression.

I saw that the parchment rolls were piled up to my ankles.

Arthur: "..."

Conrad coughed slightly unnaturally, "The suitcase was prepared by Miss Victoria."

Arthur: "..."

Conrad: "His Royal Highness Albert has one more thing to say."

Arthur: "Say."

Conrad: "His Royal Highness Albert said, 'Please treat lichs as intelligent beings that should enjoy legal rights!'"

Arthur asked back: "If I didn't regard him as an intelligent life, why would I give these official documents to him for processing?"

Conrad: "..."

Despite this, Arthur eventually took matters into his own hands.

However, the two knights guarding the door, George and Edward, looked at each other tacitly and exchanged glances.

When Li Aili turned around to make lemonade, she happened to see half a bubble passing through the wooden door:
[...Yao, it seems normal so far. 】

[...I am not an evil lich, and I have no intention of seizing power from His Highness...]

Li Aili looked away.

Place a glass of lemon water gently on the edge of the table.

"My dear, you take care of these official duties first, and I'll take Conrad to visit the territory."

Arthur scanned the document at a glance, and then wrote a line of comments on it in domineering and smooth cursive calligraphy:
[Having come up with such an idea, are you out of your mind? 】

At the same time, His Highness Arthur said to Ellie in a low and gentle tone: "Come back early to accompany me."

Ellie Li: "..."

Li Aili pulled Conard all the way out of the city gate.

"Conard, how much do you know about Arthur's deal with the devil?"

Conrad replied softly: "Everything, Miss Ellie, I know everything."
