Chapter 57: CH 22.1

Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 22.1

Battlefield (1)

Rothgarr looked up at Anna who was standing in front of him. He did not expect this kind of reaction from her.

Her smug look really made his hands itch to hurt something.

Rothgarr resisted and resisted, and finally let go of this itch for action.

He offer to teach Anna to read was not to torture her more conveniently.

Balan thought Rothgarr didn't have much experience in dealing with women and couldn't win the gambling contract, so he wanted to defeat stubborn Anna and let Balan know that he was wrong so that he could give him The Abyss Tree Seed obediently.

Rothgarr took out the book from Anna and glanced at her: "Listen."

Then, just like he had recited the basic characters yesterday, he started reading from the cover and spent only ten minutes reading the entire book.

Anna, who was standing behind him listening to him reading from the book in his hand: "..."

Teachers like this should really be taken to Shentang*!

[A place in China where criminals are held or where evildoers are punished.]

Anna had a good memory, but she was still far from having a photographic memory. She had silently recited the basic characters several times before memorizing them, let alone this entire book.

Fortunately, lingua franca was based on the pronunciation of basic characters, and you would pretty much know the pronunciation by seeing the spelling of a word. When the demon was reading, she gave her full attention. When she heard words that did not meet the common spelling rules, she especially noted them in her mind. If the demon’s pronunciation was the same as she assumed, she would skip it.

After a high-intensity ten minute reading session, Anna’s throat felt dry even if Anna didn't really speak.

Fortunately, she had also remembered a good chunk of it.

Rothgarr had known that Anna was standing behind him when he began to read. Because he knew that she could not do anything to him, he decided to just do as she wished. When he finished reading, he slammed the book shut and threw it into Anna’s arms. He looked to his side and asked indifferently, “Have you remembered it?”

Anna involuntarily stepped back a little while hugging the book. She couldn't help thinking, how come this demon only spoke the same few lines; did he not get sick of them?

She wanted to say that she didn't remember and ask the demon to read it again. Ulysses's voice was very nice, and in addition, he was reading a collection of poems, which added a rhythmic charm to his voice. It was just a pity that she was too focused on the pronunciation and didn't have the time to appreciate it.

But looking at the expression in the demon's eyes, she felt that if she really asked him to read it from beginning to end again, he might turn hostile, but...she could ask it in a different way!

Anna said: "I’ve remembered most of it. It's just that I still don’t understand the meaning of some words, so I’ll have to ask Master Ulysses to teach me."

This was not asking Rothgarr to read it again, but asking him to teach her the meaning. Although he had never taught anyone before, he thought that her request was not too overboard, so he lifted his hand and motioned for Anna to return the book.

Anna hurriedly handed it over, but because she was too rushed, her fingers accidentally slid across his palm as she placed the book in Rothgarr's hand.

Rothgarr raised his eyebrows and looked at her with slight irony in his eyes.

Anna pretended to be calm. She retracted her hand and took a short step back, but she felt depressed to death in her heart.

She didn't mean it! Does he think she was trying to seduce him? !

The feeling of her finger was still there on his palm. Rothgarr remembered that Anna was standing behind him when he was reading just now. She was deliberately very close to him, and he could almost smell the very faint smell of body wash on her body. He couldn't help but sneer.

She had put it so nicely then, but in reality, didn’t she still want to take a shortcut in the end?

Rothgarr just glanced at Anna. He didn't expose her, only opened the book and asked, "Which words do you not know the meaning of?"

Seeing him turn around, Anna took a step forward so that she could see the words in the book.

Rothgarr noticed her behavior. A sneer formed at the corner of his mouth, but he pretended as if he hadn't noticed.

"I don't understand the title of the book." Anna said.

After Rothgarr read through the book, Anna had already matched some of the pronunciations with words used in daily life, but this was most likely a book of poems, and most of them were written words, so there were not many words she could match.

Rothgarr said: "Poetry sea, poems of the sea."

Anna nodded. She had guessed it right, it really was a collection of poems. And because the demon said the word first and then explained it in a more plain form, she not only remembered the pronunciation she had nearly forgotten, but also understood the meaning of the word.

Rothgarr turned to the inside page. His tone of voice did not fluctuate. "What else?"

Anna thought for a while. Then she leaned closer and pointed at a word: "I don't understand this."

"Murder. Plan to kill."

"What about this one?"

"Buried alive. People who are buried in the soil before they die."

Anna asked and memorized along the way, which was equivalent to reviewing. She also read the meaning of the whole sentence to deepen the word’s impression in her memory.
