Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 26.3
Borrowing His Body (3)
Victor could no longer maintain his calm expression. No matter what the reason was behind Ulysses’ actions, he would not be surprised, but those were surprisingly not Ulysses’ actions!
"Are you...a demon from the Demon Realm?" Victor asked in surprise.
Demons had not appeared in the record for a long time. The last time a well-documented demon appeared in the Human Realm was more than a hundred years ago. The demon slaughtered a city, and when the nearest five-star mage arrived, the demon had long since disappeared.
Victor had never seen a demon in person before. He didn't know if the demon in front of him was the same as the demon who caused the massacre in the record, but he knew very well that this demon was not a good person.
Rothgarr didn't answer Victor's question. He slowly approached, his blood-red eyes flashing with unknown light in the dimness.
"What on earth is your goal?"
The unknown danger made Victor extremely disturbed. He took a short step back, and suddenly thought that maybe there was an ending in this world more terrible than death.
Rothgarr stared at him with spiteful blood-red eyes, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "I’ll be borrowing your body for a bit."
Victor didn't understand what Rothgarr meant at first, until Rothgarr turned into a dark shadow again and invaded him.
Before losing consciousness, Victor was in great fear.
The next day, when Anna arrived at the earl estate, she found that the atmosphere was not right.
She snuck up behind the people who were gossiping, and after listening for a while, she finally got a general idea.
Last night, gangsters and the like broke into the estate and attacked the Holy Son, and at the same time alarmed Lord Ulysses. After an earth-shattering battle, all the attackers were killed and the Holy Son was seriously injured. When the people from the earl's mansion arrived, the attackers had already become scorched corpses scattered on the ground.
Anna's eyebrows were pounding. The truth was that the demon had a fight with the Holy Son, right?
Yesterday the Holy Son asked her where the demon lived; he indeed discovered the existence of the demon, right?
The Holy Son was badly injured...Was it truly the demon who was more powerful?
Anna interrogated her own soul, but she soon calmed down.
What happened yesterday still gave her a lot of confidence. Dubian said that she was very talented. Although she started to learn spells much later than ordinary mages did, she would definitely catch up with those who were ordinarily talented soon.
Becoming a five-star mage was not merely a dream; she could definitely achieve it!
Anna had exhausted all the methods she thought of, but they all ended in failure. Only if she became a five-star mage did she still have a chance to try.
"Anna."
Hearing someone calling her name, Anna hurriedly turned her head and saw Madam Mary, the rarely seen deputy housekeeper of the estate, standing behind her.
Anna hurriedly saluted in greeting.
Mrs. Mary said concisely: "The esteemed Holy Son is injured and needs someone to take care of him. You have been assigned to him temporarily. Take care of the Holy Son and don't ruin the reputation of the kitchen."
After she finished speaking, she saw Anna with a weird expression on her face. She frowned and asked, "What?"
Anna quickly said: "I have just arrived for less than a month, I'm afraid I can't take care of the esteemed Holy Son, Madam Mary. I insist that you assign someone else."
Madam Mary's face went cold, and the words she said shattered the last shred of hope in Anna's heart: "No, the esteemed Holy Son personally named you."
Anna's face collapsed in an instant. She knew it! She knew that things would eventually end up like this!
She had already been so vain and conspicuous to Parrish. She clearly didn't even dare to spare the Holy Son even an extra glance. Why did the demon still attack the Holy Son!
Madame Mary saw that Anna's expression was not very good. She originally thought that Anna had done something secretly. Her face eased at this moment, but her tone remained stubborn. "Do you know why the esteemed Holy Son named you?"
"I don't know..." Anna shook her head. Of course she knew, but she couldn't say it. "Perhaps yesterday, the esteemed Holy Son asked me for directions, and I answered him. I encountered the esteemed Holy Son twice. The other time was when the City Lord and the Holy Son were passing through the garden. That time, I was with Abigail and the others; the esteemed Holy Son probably didn't see me then. "
Madam Mary nodded and said: "Maybe it was when he was asking for directions that the esteemed Holy Son remembered you. Don't worry, I heard Rebecca say that you have learned well, and I believe you can take good care of the esteemed Holy Son. Don't lose the face of the earl estate, got it?"
"Yes, I understand." Anna responded.
At present, what right did she have to refuse?
Anna couldn’t reveal what she knew about the existence of the demon. Therefore, before taking care of the former Holy Son/the present demon, she had to go to Ulysses to explain that she could no longer deliver food to him, and could no longer be taught by him.
And this time it would be the real Ulysses.
Because she knew the inside story, when she thought about the possibility that she told him about those things, and he didn't know anything or even thought that she was crazy, she felt that she would actually go crazy.
