Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 28.1
Split Personality (1)
After being convinced that Anna had an interest in the Holy Son, and did not dare to express it because she was afraid of the Vatican, Rothgarr was relieved.
In this case, what was he worried about? As long as he waited for half a month’s time, he would get the result he wanted.
Anna tidied away the blood-stained gauze and other scraps, and turned her head to find that the demon was staring at her.
Fortunately, she had long been used to it, so she just pretended as if she didn’t notice and asked, "Esteemed Holy Son, do you want to eat now?"
It was just after nine o'clock now, and such a lazy person like Parrish had not even gotten up yet. The demon used to eat relatively early when he was possessing Ulysses, but now that he was possessing the Holy Son, it was normal for him to change his habits.
"Bring it in." Rothgarr nodded.
The human body was very troublesome, and after possessing them for nearly a month, he also began to get used to the human routine.
Anna went back to the kitchen. In order for the Holy Son’s body to recover as soon as possible, she asked the maid preparing breakfast to add more fish and eggs. Because there were no other fresh red meat products early in the morning, she did her best and got some bacon. Coupled with a cup of warm milk, it was a decently nutritious breakfast.
After returning with a nutritious breakfast, Anna took out the small table that was always available in each bedroom and put it on the bed, placing the breakfast on it. Then she stood by and watched as the demon ate.
The demon was not a picky eater; he ate everything. In addition, the amount of food she had brought over was just right, so he ate until there was nothing left.
Anna put everything away, carefully supported the demon to lie down to rest, and went back to the kitchen.
She lingered in the kitchen for a while, but did not return immediately.
At this time in the previous few days, she would already be learning literacy with the demon. Although he taught very poorly, she did learn a lot. She even missed not having classes anymore.
When Rebecca asked her for the second time why she was still in the kitchen, Anna could only go back unwillingly.
In order to take care of the Holy Son who was bedridden, she practically had to stay by his side almost all day.
Anna walked slowly to the Holy Son’s residence. On the way there, she ran into Abigail and the others and stopped to talk with them for a while. The three of them already knew about the Holy Son's injury, and heard that Anna was assigned to take care of the Holy Son, so they asked her about the Holy Son with concern.
Anna simply said that the Holy Son was in good spirits. He was able to eat and sleep, and he should get better soon. As for the matter of taking off his night robes to clean up his wounds and change the gauze, she would just keep it to herself, lest they turn green with envy.
The four chatted for a while, but Fiona urged Anna to go back, worrying about the Holy Son's needs, so Anna reluctantly said goodbye to them.
When she got to the master bedroom on the second floor, the demon was still lying there.
Anna tiptoed closer. She saw him with his eyes closed, and took another two steps back. Just as she was looking for a place to sit down, she saw the demon open his eyes. He looked at her and said, "I heard that you have been learning literacy with Ulysses recently."
Anna thought to herself, how long have you been here as the Holy Son? How could you have heard of such a little thing about a maid?
He had a lot of holes in his story, but she still pretended not to know anything.
She expressed regret: "Yes. Master Ulysses is very kind and considerate. He has taught me a lot. Now that I can't continue to study with him, I feel very regretful."
Rothgar’s face changed. Did she think of him that way?
However, he also believed that it was her honor as a human to be able to learn with a demon, and she should really be grateful.
"Don’t be regretful, I can teach you, too." Rothgarr said.
Since Anna really liked literacy, he believed he should continue to use this method.
Anna glanced at the demon, feeling a little reluctant in her heart.
She did miss the demon’s teaching before, but it was after he stopped teaching, okay? For example, in conversation with others, she always reminisced about the beauty of childhood, but if she had the chance to return to her childhood where she ate less and drank less, where she was not financially independent and she couldn't happily watch dramas without a smartphone, she was very reluctant to do so.
Therefore, if she had to go back to the days where she was forced to memorize an entire book every day, she still felt very nervous.
However, she loved to learn and refusing didn’t seem too reasonable, so she could only express joy: "Really, esteemed Holy Son? I am worried that it will affect your recovery process."
Rothgarr said, "You mean this little cut?"
Then, he pressed his hand on the biggest wound on his shoulder. A streak of white light flashed, and he pulled off the night robe and peeled off the gauze. Only a shallow trace was left from the original wound on his shoulder.
This action stunned Anna.
If he could heal the wound himself, why didn’t he do it earlier? She had worked hard to clean and change the gauze for him!
After Rothgarr used the Holy Healing, he felt a little dizzy and nauseated, and his complexion was a bit off.
It was not only because he hated the feeling of the light element washing over his body, but also Victor had used excessive mental power in the first place. Him forcefully using the magic technique, even if it was a small holy healing technique, would make his already poor mental state even worse.
