The female devils I saved came to my door

In the Royal Opera House in the city of Lovnania, the grand and dazzling opera "The Great Adventure of Saint Lovna" is entering its third act.

This scene tells the story of Lovna traveling around the continent after being "blessed by an angel".

The future queen will save innocent civilians everywhere, fight against corrupt officials everywhere, destroy criminal gangsters, and punish nobles who harm the people...

In a series of adventures, she was supported and loved by kind people, gained a reputation, and became an excellent leader.

Lovna in the story is heroic and passionate.The audience in the audience also cheered non-stop, applauding loudly for the shining founding queen on the stage.

However, Charles in the box remained expressionless as he watched the drama.

He finally became impatient and turned around to tell Wuming beside him: "At that time, the Netherworld Demon who signed a contract with Lovna, his real name was 'Subversive', and he was a being who liked to create chaos and riots.

"The subversive, she is the demon in the underworld of the underworld, the souls who resented the status quo during their lifetime, and were spawned by desire, obsession and desire.

“So, when someone else’s obsession is strong enough and the objects given to them are mixed with stronger emotions, she can fulfill her wishes and distort the facts.

“She is very powerful and likes to see the subordinates killing their masters, seeing the superiors falling into the clouds, and seeing everyone panic after the order collapses.

"So, she wants to bring chaos. But after all, her existence is also shackles of the laws of the world. As a demon, she cannot lie directly to mortals, and she cannot kill others first, let alone move around at will, so she needs a Host.

“Disruptors understand destiny far better than mere mortals.

“She fell in love with Lovna through her prying eyes on destiny.

"She could actually make Lovna's mother recover from the plague with just a wave of her hand. But she deliberately gave Lovna a box of pills and asked Lovna to use the medicine to cure her mother.

"Because she knew that Lovna, who had no independent ideas, would probably give this box of medicine to the priest under her mother's useless mercy.

"These medicines will definitely be given to all believers. In this way, Lovna herself will be considered as breaking the contract and saving an excess number of people.

"The demon then guided the two paladins to discover the clues, and led the two paladins Perry and Thalia into the forest. The two knights took the initiative to attack her, and she resisted the opponent's attack with prepared means. He could kill the two of them in a logical manner.

“She also deliberately let one of them breathe, and waited until Lovna arrived before actually killing him in front of Lovna.

“In the end, she took advantage of Lovna’s guilt, fear, and shame at the time, forcing her to sign the contract in a confused manner.

"Lovna, she has become the host that this demon likes."

After Wuming listened, he felt speechless for a long time.

The performance on stage is very dazzling.In this fictional plot of the opera, Lovna dazzles like a future empress.

But the real Lovna was just an unlucky person who was deceived by the devil, burdened with guilt, and had to find excuses to leave her hometown and wander.

Wuming in the box no longer wanted to watch the opera in front of him.

"Miss Lovna suffered a lot at that time, right?" Wuming felt a little pitiful for her: "It must be hard to be bound by sins that are not yours."

"It is true that she suffered a lot. Her originally twisted heart was amplified by the devil... so much so that when we met later, her feelings for me were a bit wrong - but Wuming, you actually Don’t hate her?”

"Why do I hate Miss Lovna?" Wuming was puzzled.

Charles reminded: "She almost chopped you to death in our castle a few days ago. The curse rune on the knife made you unable to get out of bed for three days."

"Oh...this." Wuming almost forgot about this.

Indeed, she should hate Lovna for this, but even looking back, she felt like she couldn't feel disgusted with that paranoid red-haired woman.

She thought for a while and gave her answer: "As long as what she did was to see you again, Sir Charles, I think there is no need for me to hate her.

"Because, I actually understand her quite a bit. Although Sir Charles didn't tell me what happened next, I feel that you are a very, very reliable person.

"Especially your care of Lovna and Sirna. Although you have always blamed yourself for not taking good care of Lovna, I really feel that you take care of Miss Lovna very seriously when every major turning point occurs. Considered.

"You will also think of her every time something good happens. You will also try your best to fulfill every promise you make to her - whether it is making her a gift, buying her a weapon, standing up for her when she is being bullied, or Take her to Glory City to enjoy your happiness - you have never forgotten her, even if she was just an ordinary girl at that time.

"If I were Lovna, I would also like you and have that kind of paranoid love for you. Even if I hurt other people around you, even if I put a knife on your neck, even if I hurt myself, it would only be I want you to look at me more."

Wuming looked at Charles seriously and spoke out what was in his heart.

Charles was stunned for a long time, and finally spoke: "Wu Ming, in the past, you rarely spoke so much to me, and you almost never expressed your thoughts."

"Because Sir Charles, you don't tell me much about what's in your heart, and I don't know you very well. I'm afraid that I'll say the wrong thing and make you hate me." Wuming explained: "Now, I feel that I care more about you. Understood, I believe you are a very kind person, and I am not afraid to share my heart with you."

"Are you kind...?" These words made Charles smile, a little bitterly and a little embarrassed: "I am not a kind person."

However, after the two of them talked so much, they had no intention of watching the opera anymore.

They left the opera house before the fourth act began.

55. Reunion

Standing at the door of the Opera House, the two of them looked at the street where carriages and pedestrians were passing by, feeling a little confused for a moment.

It was already very dark, but at the time, they still didn't want to go back like this.

"Master Charles, where are we going now? Should we go back to the hotel and rest?"

"I do not know."

This means that he doesn't want to go back.

In the past, his life was very, very simple, walking on the island, hanging out, greeting the island residents, going back to the castle to read, bathing, enjoying the dinner prepared by Wuming, reading, sleeping...

that's it.

He had lived like this for so long that he didn't even know what to do if he lived in a big city like Lovnaniya.

What should he do in such a bustling city?

It was definitely not appropriate to go back like this at night in a big city, and he also wanted to do something.

He planned to collect intelligence here, but he actually had no clue.

"Master Charles, let's go to the night market."

Suddenly, Wuming raised his hand, pointed to a noisy street not far from the Royal Opera House, and gave him a suggestion.

night market?

Ciel looked up and saw the brightly lit streets between the two neighborhoods.

There was melodious music coming from there, and the sound was also very noisy.

Leading Wuming through the busy streets and slowly approaching, the music became more and more exciting and loud.It wasn't until he stood at the entrance of the block that he saw the street clearly.

Night market carnival.

It turns out that a celebration is also being held here.

The streets are crowded with all kinds of exquisite snack shops, stalls grilling large pieces of beef and mutton, shops selling various souvenirs, hawkers hawking... The artificial light ball condensed by the magic crystal above the head. Under the light, the street scene is even brighter than during the day.

Near the intersection of the street, there is also a huge stage that has just been set up.

A complete orchestra composed of several hundred people was playing the resonant and resonant song "Founding Saint, Glory Guides the Empire", a well-known song of the East Ipoli Empire.

Many formally dressed gentlemen with straight waists gathered around the stage and sounded high-spirited.

The ladies held up silk fans, half-hiding their faces, and sat at the carnival resting place, tasting sweet and sour drinks with each other, and exchanging various gossips.

And passing through this bustling sales area, there are various entertainment facilities for the carnival.

The city of Lovnania is filled with merchants from all over the mainland, so there are definitely enough entertainment facilities.In addition to the big tent of the famous circus tour not far away, there are also nearby carousels, extra-large swings, roller skate tracks, roller skating squares, and ball sports stadiums...

Many entertainment facilities that only exist in the distant memories of the Shire are available here.

"Hey, hey, hey, the fourth game is about to begin. The Empire Warriors will face the Saints of Silver Lake. Bet is placed!"

"Come and see, come and see, the purebred snow leopard we captured from the Eastern Snow Mountains is absolutely rare. If you don't see it, you will regret it for the rest of your life!"

"You can buffet yourself with large pieces of barbecue. All are unlimited. All are unlimited. There are plenty of condiments. Enjoy your meal! Eat to your heart's content!"

…………

Looking at the scenery here and listening to these chaotic hawking and shouting, he was really stunned for a moment.

"Lord Charles?" Wuming asked with some concern, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

At this time, Charles also reacted and immediately made an excuse: "Oh, it's okay. I haven't been in such a lively place for a long time. I'm not used to it... Let's find a place to sit. We are all wearing formal clothes now." , it’s not convenient for you to walk in your long skirt and high-heeled boots. If oil is splashed here, cleaning will be troublesome.”

The two found a clean corner shop and asked for seats to sit down.Xia Er also planned to buy some food and drinks back, but at this time, Wuming remembered that he was Xia Er's bodyguard and had already asked Xia Er to take care of her for several days, so she could no longer trouble him.So he took the money and insisted on going by himself.

Charles was left to her own devices.

She knew Ciel's taste preferences very well, so she picked some lighter snacks and some non-alcoholic drinks. She also ordered a tray and placed napkins on it. She arranged all the food on the plate and set out the knives and forks, trying to create an atmosphere as much as possible. The right atmosphere.

Although they can't go back to the castle on the isolated island now, as long as Charles and her are still together, this necessary sense of ritual is indispensable.He must still be the Baron who pays attention to the taste of life.

"There's no need to put it on the plate." However, Charles was too lazy to pay attention to it. He casually picked up the snacks with his hands and stuffed them into his mouth: "I don't have so many rules."

Wu Ming could only give up.

They sat and ate and drank slowly for a long time, and finally cleared the plate full of snacks.

Charles suddenly asked a question: "Would you like to live in a city like this, surrounded by carnivals, opera houses, and commercial streets, and the surroundings are so lively every day? Or do you prefer living on an isolated island, where all the residents know us? A life that is comfortable and leisurely, but remains the same all year round?”

This sudden question startled Wuming: "Lord Charles, you don't plan to settle in Lovnania permanently in the future, do you?"

"It's not impossible. I've been away from the world for too long, and now I'm not used to places with many people. However, after all, we don't have official status, and it's very troublesome to buy or rent a house here. Moreover, I just calculated that my cash is actually Not enough. When I teleported to Lovnaniya, I had some coins and two gold bars in my pocket, but cashing in gold is troublesome and can easily attract attention, so we have to find other ways to make money."

"Then you still spend money to buy me such expensive clothes?" Wuming was shocked by Charles's casual way of spending money.

"People rely on clothes, and it's good to dress nicer. Money has to be spent sooner or later anyway. It's important to have a way to earn it back." He said absently, while thinking about how to get money.

His long and monotonous life had long since made him lose his respect for money, so he didn't want to be prudent.

"Eh, eh..."

Suddenly, an old woman wearing shabby clothes and a weak face walked up to them tremblingly and stooped.

The old man raised a small broken bowl and looked at Charles and Wuming beggingly: "Two kind-hearted people, kind-hearted gentlemen, kind-hearted er... miss, please give me, this old lady, a little something to eat... "

The old lady's gray hair was interspersed with a few sea-blue strands. Although her face was covered with fine wrinkles, her lively light blue eyes were particularly beautiful, which still amazed Wuming.

When she was young, she might have been a particularly beautiful woman.

Wuming was about to speak, but Charles stopped her and put some money directly into her bowl. He didn't say anything and just looked at the old lady quietly.

The old lady didn't leave. She shook the broken bowl and happily thanked Charles repeatedly, calling him a great philanthropist.He also said nonchalantly that if I have a chance in the future, I will definitely come to repay you... something like that.

Charles listened quietly to her verbosity and kept nodding.When the old lady had nothing to say, Charles pretended to be unintentional and asked: "Old lady, I would like to ask, are you a native of Lovnania?"

"Yes, yes, kind sir, do you have anything to ask me?" She raised her head with difficulty, looked at Charles, and asked: "If there is anything I can do to help you, I, I will try my best..."

Charles nodded: "Well, I'll thank you in advance. Old lady, I'm a foreigner and want to settle here for a long time, but I don't have much money on hand, and I really want to find a cheap house in Lovnaniya." Stay, um... Since you are a local, can you recommend a good place to stay? If I can find a good place to live, as a thank you, you can come to my house in the future, and I will treat you well. "

This sudden question stunned the begging old lady.

Wuming didn't understand what use it would be to ask an old woman who was a beggar.

Where can I find a homeless old woman to be a real estate agent?

But the old lady's smart eyes turned slightly, as if she had thought of something.

"Kind sir, how much money do you have?" she asked.

"Very few, just enough to hang out in the city for a few months." Charles gave a rough answer.

"Then what kind of house do you want to live in?" she asked again.

"Fully furnished, spacious and bright, with good public security, harmonious neighbors, and convenient transportation... Anyway, the more benefits, the better. The most important thing is that it is close to the palace."

This is almost like making a wish on a magic lamp: in the capital of a large empire, it is simply fanciful to expect to spend a few months of living expenses on a residence that combines so many advantages.

But this old woman actually gave an answer.

"Kind sir, I, I, an old woman, have a bad memory. Don't be offended if I tell you... When I was begging, I saw a house seller hanging a sign. I seem to remember that it was just east of the Imperial City, on Prime Minister's Avenue... …NO.16, there is a villa for sale there, the price is quite cheap, you can ask about it tomorrow or the day after.”

"Thank you very much." Charles said gratefully: "If I can buy that house, please come to my house as a guest."

"Thank you! Kind sir!"

The old lady left with great gratitude.

After the old woman left, Wuming turned to look at Charles.

"Master Charles, if you want to buy a house, you can just ask in the newspaper or go to the city hall. Why do you want to ask an old woman begging?"

"She is a local, so she definitely knows more than us. It's not a bad thing to ask." Charles said with an indifferent expression: "We will go to see the house tomorrow. If everything goes well, we will be able to live in our new home tomorrow night."
