Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 29.2
Feeling Unwell Again (2)
But Ulysses was a little impatient that the topic revolved around a maid, even if this maid played a very important role in the days of his amnesia.
So instead of waiting for Parrish to refute him, he looked at the Holy Son and said, "Your Excellency Victor, I want to know the details of last night."
Parrish sang in his heart. It appeared that Ulysses truly didn't understand flirting. Before when he said he wanted to know what happened last night, it was just an excuse. Wasn’t it more interesting to capture Anna's attention?
Anna perked her ears up when she heard Ulysses's words. She was also somewhat interested in what happened last night.
Rothgarr first glanced at Anna and found that she seemed to be very curious. He said confidently, "Those people came for you last night. I saved you."
Ulysses frowned. He had no enemies. Who would kill him?
But he was the Holy Son after all. Ulysses didn't doubt what he said at first. It was only when he thought back that he found there were holes in his explanation.
The place of battle was near Holy Son’s residence, and the bodies were burned to death. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like it was the other way around. The attackers were heading towards the Holy Son, but Ulysses perceived their movement and rushed over to help the Holy Son.
Ulysses wanted to figure out what was going on with his lost memory. He had to ask what happened last night. He looked at the Holy Son and asked, "But I heard that they all died of fire spells."
"Yeah, I blocked it for you and gave you a chance to cast spells. Otherwise, why would you be unscathed but I am bedridden and seriously injured?" Rothgarr knew that Ulysses had no memory of last night and spoke highly of himself casually. "You don't have to thank me. Since I am the Holy Son, I should follow the goddess and have mercy on the world."
Rothgarr's tone was a little arrogant, and Ulysses was especially uncomfortable listening to it.
"I wonder if you could elaborate more?" Ulysses asked, suppressing his discomfort.
Rothgarr sneered and tilted his head slightly. His long, silver hair flowed like satin: "Should I give you a recount of everything that happened yesterday?"
Anna wanted to cover her face and run away. The Holy Son was really too miserable; his reputable character was killed!
This demon didn’t need to care about interpersonal relationships, and he was not afraid of others discovering his strangeness. Therefore, he really did act recklessly. The holy and elegant Holy Son was made shrew by him.
Anna saw Ulysses's face turn very ugly, and quickly said, "Esteemed Holy Son, didn't you feel very unwell before? It's better to talk less and rest more."
Hearing Anna's words, Ulysses's complexion improved a little. The Holy Son was acting out because of physical discomfort; his attitude was not directed specifically at him.
Rothgarr looked at Anna coldly, then at Ulysses. He was not very happy.
Was she giving him a graceful way to back out of an embarrassing situation?
He would deliberately not let her achieve this.
Rothgarr didn't even look at Anna. He looked at Ulysses indifferently and said, "If you were even a little bit useful, then I wouldn’t have needed to..."
Before Rothgarr finished with his mockery, Anna rushed over, exclaiming, "What's wrong, Esteemed Holy Son", and pressed on his shoulder. His weak body fell backwards suddenly, and his head thumped against the bed with a bang, and a buzzing sound rang out in his ears.
When Anna rushed over, she used her body to block her movements. At this moment, she saw the demon lying on the bed, his face pale. She couldn't say anything that would corrupt the Holy Son's reputation. She pretended to be concerned and said: "Esteemed Holy Son, are you not feeling well again? Your face is so pale!"
Then she turned around and said apologetically to Ulysses and Parrish: “I'm very sorry, the esteemed Holy Son is very unwell now. I'm afraid he won’t be able to hold a conversation right now. Please give him time to rest.”
Although Parrish and Ulysses felt that the scene just now was very abrupt, they did not suspect that Anna, the maid, would dare raise her hand against the Holy Son. Seeing that the Holy Son's complexion was indeed very bad, it wasn’t right for them to stay, either.
Ulysses stepped forward and glanced at Anna, who smiled apologetically at him.
He suddenly retracted his gaze and walked out with Parrish.
Anna let out a sigh of relief when she saw the two leave.
Then, she remembered what she had done just now, and couldn't help admiring her courage.
She was too awesome, even daring to raise her hand against the demon!
Rothgarr felt so sick that he wanted to throw up.
Originally, the excessive use of mental power made him feel dizzy. When he finally felt a little better, he was hit hard again. Now he couldn't wait to get out of this body immediately.
What made him even more angry was that Anna pushed him in order to protect Ulysses' feelings!
Why didn't he see her defending him this way when he was possessing Ulysses? Obviously she had an interest in the Holy Son, but couldn’t let go of Ulysses. Did she want them all!?
