Because of the limited time, Anna didn’t have time to think about how to draw Hansen over. She thought that Hansen was probably very hostile to “Raymond”, but if “Raymond” showed up directly, Hansen would not be stupid; he would certainly run.
Therefore, the element of “Raymond” must be there, and secondly, Hansen must be convinced that “Raymond” was seriously injured and be fully occupied with no time to spare for other things. That way, Hansen would have a chance to succeed.
Therefore, Anna just made up a story that “Raymond was wallowing in having an affair with a married woman, and that his mental strength was not so good that even her one-star mage husband couldn’t beat her”. Look, wasn’t that a good effect?
Hansen really thought he could make a sneak attack, but what he didn’t know was that it was the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind*.
But it didn’t matter even if Hansen wasn’t fooled. This encounter was a pleasant surprise. If they couldn’t beat him up this time, there would always be an opportunity in the future.
Seeing that Anna didn’t answer, Rothgarr’s expression became even colder: “Where did you learn it?”
Anna, who was a little anxious when she saw the demon’s expression, answered honestly: “…I first lived in a slum area, where the soundproofing was poor, and I overheard it.” Actually, she learned it from films and dramas.
Rothgarr’s expression relaxed a little, and he practically ordered: “In the future, don’t learn anymore!”
Anna replied obediently, “Okay.”
Why would she spend her time learning that! She wouldn’t have come up with that kind of “scene” if she was given a little more time just now. That definitely wouldn’t happen again.
While the two of them reached a consensus, Hansen’s servant came in. The servants didn’t find Hansen at first. After all, he was lying off to the side. Anna had to use her mental power to cast a spell that threw a small stone over, which successfully got their attention. After the servant’s saw Hansen, who even Hansen’s own mother wouldn’t recognize, they cried and rushed up, helping lift up the unconscious Hansen and quickly hurried back.
It wasn’t until the servants who were supporting Hansen walked off to a point that they couldn’t see that Anna truly felt a sense of relaxation of successfully completing a great task.
It was quite a pleasant thing to get revenge.
The two waited a while before leaving, lest Hansen’s servants see them.
Rothgarr deliberately kept his distance from Anna, but such efforts were of no use. He still kept on replaying Anna’s voice just now in his mind. The high and low levels overlapped each other. Even if her voice became distorted, if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes and heard it with his own ears, even those who knew her couldn’t tell that that was Anna’s voice.
Anna kept observing the demon on the way out of the Association, and seeing that he was like a pressure cooker, she also subconsciously moved away.
Obviously beating someone up was such a pleasant thing, why was he not happy? Was it because the plan couldn’t keep up with the changes, and he didn’t let Hansen know that he did it? But although Hansen didn’t see his face, Raymond was the only one who had a grudge against Hansen at present. Hansen wouldn’t need to think much to know that Raymond must have done it; only, Hansen didn’t have any evidence of this fact.
No one would believe that a nobleman would hide in the dark with a sack and beat another nobleman, especially not someone like “Raymond,” who seemed extremely arrogant to outsiders. Hansen could only swallow his teeth and blood—oh, his teeth were knocked out, no need to swallow.
Anna thought of the question the demon asked just now and the order that she was not allowed to learn it again. It was only after that moment that he looked to be in a bad mood.
So… the demon reacted to her voice and was so angry? Outraged? Embarrassed to see her?
She immediately crossed out the last one; this demon was not that kind of “sweet” person.
Based on Anna’s understanding of the demon, he was the kind who looked down heavily on humans very much and thought that “all the humans here were rubbish”. Perhaps this was the case for the entire demon race. Even with Balan, who was very kind to her before, she faintly felt that Balan didn’t treat her as an equal at all, more like a cute pet or something.
Looking down on humans, but curling up in a human body to deceive her soul; this must not be a pleasant experience for the demon, and because she was too tenacious, this unpleasantness had been prolonged indefinitely.
And now, because of the vulnerability caused by the human male physiology, her relatively restrained voice caused him to react, and he felt annoyed and angry. For a demon to react because of the voice of a human woman, this was probably a shameful thing for a demon who looked down on humans, right?
Anna kept guessing in her heart, and the guess that most likely explained the demon’s current state in her opinion made her want to laugh.
Demon oh demon, how the tables have turned!
Perhaps the body structure of demons was different from that of humans, but today, let him have a good taste of the pain that he had to endure from being trapped in the weak body of a human!
Anna didn’t know what she was proud of, but she didn’t dare to show it on her face. Even after leaving the Association, she immediately pretended that she didn’t know anything, waved her hand to say goodbye to the demon before running away quickly.
Rothgarr certainly didn’t stop Anna. Her previous voice had been stuck in his mind, even until he turned to the carriage with a gloomy face. In the confined space, the voice seemed to be clearer and clearer.
His brows furrowed, and after he signaled the driver to drive, he immediately assumed a meditative posture, but he barely entered the state even when the carriage had stopped and he had arrived home.
This damn fragile human body!
Anna had a smile on her face until she got home. Of course, she was very happy to see the demon yielding, but she had to pay attention to this kind of thing and not let it happen again. It’s not that she was afraid of what he would do to her, but that she was worried that he would peel away his mask and kill her directly.
