Chapter 97 You...Beast

1861 Words
When facing a wild beast, your fear is its biggest reason to pounce and tear you apart.Just like Karen now, in front of this little girl, if she shows any signs of fear or normal human thoughts and behaviors, she will meet the same fate as her own brother.She is like a wild beast,And this damn study is like a cage, trapping her and the beast together.Karen swears,After this, she will immediately learn the Order of the Gods' servants, no, since she was able to awaken the dead before purification, why can't she try higher level spells? "God's revelation and guidance, even that of a judge!Even if there is a great risk in learning it early, it's still better than now, right?Actually, Karen doesn't have much reason to complain about his laziness, because he just completed the purification yesterday, and this little beast came in today.The only laziness, perhaps, was sitting at the desk this morning and eating a not-so-delicious breakfast without any guilt.Apart from that,a secretary desk will be added next to the study, so even if he's just trimming his nails in the study, Alfred must sit there and accompany him.Judy walked to the desk,before pressing the bell,she smiled,then she turned to look at Karen," Karen noticed it out of the corner of her eye, but just continued to use her fingers to pull up her clothes."Ding..."Judy pressed the doorbell.Standing at the door was Borg, a first-level member of the family's belief system.Karen felt that he was probably no match for this royal crazy girl.And when Borg saw another person in the study, he obviously hesitated. He had been standing at the door of the study, how did he not know someone had come in?"Go get me a change of clothes, Princess Judy's saliva got my clothes dirty.""It's not true, you clearly like to eat other people's saliva."After pouting, Princess Judy still showed a cute smile to Borg who was standing there. "Master, the lord would like to ask if you would like to attend the cemetery ceremony later.""I'm not going.""Okay, I'll go get your clothes, sir."In a little while, Alfred walked in with the clothes. Before entering, his expression was somewhat solemn, but once he entered, he resumed his strict smile."Sir, here are your clothes.""Mm, you're also a very elegant butler." Judy walked over to Karen and squatted down, wrapping her arms around his legs as he sat in the chair. "I even start to wonder if there's a story between you and your butler.""Put the clothes on the table and leave."Alfred placed the clothes on the desk and smiled, "Sir, do you not need me to help you change?""No need."Karen shook his head and gently patted Judy's head with his hand. "I want to experience the feeling of a princess helping me change clothes.""Okay, young master."Alfred walked out of the study, stopped at the door, turned around, and pulled the door handle with both hands, closing the door."Click."In the moment the door closed, Alfred grabbed Borg's collar and lifted the boy off the ground."What are you guarding, you useless waste!"After cursing in a low voice,Alfred threw Borg to the ground.Borg immediately got up and said, "I don't know, I've been at the door the whole time. I don't know how the princess got in. I just thought it was strange, so I specifically told you, sir."The young master should be fine, right? Didn't you just go in to check, sir?" "Is everything okay?" Alfred kicked Borg again, causing him to fall to the ground. The "radio" fairy in Puer only showed respect to great beings, but in reality, he was a demon who could live independently and sit on equal footing with the ordinary judges of the Order of the Gods of Order."When I went in, that girl deliberately stuck close to the young master, afraid that I would suddenly attack her. This is using the young master as a hostage. Do you call this nothing?" Borg, who was kicked down, immediately got up and asked, "Please tell me what to do now?""What else can you do?" Alfred took a few steps back and leaned against the wall. "Just wait for her to come out on her own."Borg asked, "Should I go find the master and ask him to invite Prince York over?""Don't do anything, don't make things worse." Alfred took a deep breath and reminded, "When you lose control of the situation, doing nothing is the best way to keep things from getting worse. Hasty actions can often make things worse. Since the bell on the desk was pressed to let you in earlier, it means that the young master still has control over the situation. Let's...trust the young master." "Yes, thank you for your teachings, Mr. Alfred." Borg bowed to Alfred while holding his chest.Alfred glanced at him and said, "From now on, set up a desk for me in the study. I will always be by the young master's side starting today."...Karen took off her dirty coat and handed it to Judy.Judy took the coat and placed it on the desk. Then she picked up a new piece of clothing and walked over, spreading out the sleeves and asking, "I'm curious.""Curious about what?"Karen put her hand into the sleeve and put on the clothing. Then she stood facing Judy, indicating for her to help button it up.Judy reached out and buttoned up Karen's clothing, continuing, "Curious if you were just performing in front of me, if everything before was just an act." "Yes, I was pretending," Karen answered honestly."Oh?" Judy continued buttoning, "If it's just an act, then you have amazing acting skills. You should be the lead at the Royal Theatre in York.""Making a choice and then constantly testing it is a boring thing to do," Karen said."Well, you make a good point."With the buttons in front done, Karen turned around and let Judy fix the ones in the back."Now that you've made a choice, just keep moving forward. In reality, the end result doesn't matter as much as the journey itself. It's only for others to see; what matters is if you enjoy the scenery along the way," Karen continued."I understand," Judy let go of Karen's hand. "Everything is fixed here too." Karen turned around and personally straightened her sleeves."I initially thought you were cleaning this study, but then I realized you weren't; then I thought you were just a core member of the Allen family, but now I see that's not the case.You are the owner of this study in the Allen family, how strange." "Is that really so strange?" Karen smiled, "Your sense of strangeness is quite low."Judith lifted her skirt and bowed to Karen:"I am curious, if I were to walk out of this study alone, would I be met with an attack ordered by you? Is that a possibility?""That possibility is just as likely as when you first climbed in through the window and wanted to eat me.""Then how can I leave?""What do you think?" Karen finished fixing her clothes, "You can ask yourself what made you change your mind about wanting to eat me.""I can tell you a secret, a secret of the Gloria royal family targeting the Allen family." "Speak.""The Gloria royal family is preparing to take action against the Allen family.""Why not now? Your brother Henry would make a good scapegoat.""Because the timing isn't right yet. My great-grandmother's health is deteriorating, she's close to death.""She could die at any time, after all she's quite old.""But she has found a way to prolong her life, and if successful, it will greatly elevate the status of the Gloria family.""Can you explain more clearly?"Judy pointed to the painting of Count Rekall, "Count Rekall once gave my Gloria ancestor half a sea chart as... payment.""Hmm."Karen didn't find it strange. In pirate stories, there will never be a shortage of sea charts, and they will never be complete. "More than a hundred years ago, the Gloria and Allen families jointly formed an expedition fleet, merging their half maps together and following the map's guidance to explore a mysterious treasure.During that expedition, the fleet suffered heavy losses and only the flagship of the Allen family returned, while the Gloria family was completely destroyed."Karen's heart trembled slightly, so the finger of the god of light was brought back by the Allen family during that treasure hunt?"But the fact is, there was an ancestor of the Gloria family who participated in this adventure, and he did not die. He floated on the sea and ended up stranded on a deserted island.In the past hundred years, with the expansion of colonial movements, finally, twenty years ago, a survey team belonging to the mining department came to the island and discovered the remains of that ancestor in a cave on the island.Next to the remains was a box, and inside the box was a black seed.""Your story is a bit too long," Karen reminded, "perhaps in the future, I can teach you how to tell a story without making the audience feel bored."But what Karen was thinking was, during the joint expedition, the Allen family brought back the god's finger, so the seed that the Gloria family ancestor protected until his death must also be extraordinary."There are actors in the grand theater who specialize in telling stories, and they perform almost every day. They talk nonsense, but there are always many people buying tickets to listen to them.""Okay, I will go to the grand theater next time I have the chance, but for now..." "Great-grandmother intends to visit the Allen family before she dies. This is an honor for a vassal. When the queen visits a family, it is a blessing, even for a small town or a city, it is a collective honor for all its people.""Then what?""Great-grandmother will die at the Allen family, and the seed will sprout inside her. Then, on that night, everyone at the Allen Manor will die, but great-grandmother will be reborn. However, in name, she will also die at the Allen Manor and her body will be left there.Perhaps outsiders do not know, the Gloria family only dares to protect themselves, but they do not dare to actively attack others, because the church closely monitors the Vayne royal family. The royal family can do whatever they want on their own territory, but if they want to reveal any ambitions, they will surely face suppression from the church.Fortunately, using this method can deceive the church's suspicion towards the royal family, and outsiders will not think that the Gloria family is responsible for the destruction of the Allen family.""Can you be more specific?""I don't know the specifics either," explained Judia. "It is great-grandmother who will swallow the seed, not me.""Why choose the Allen family?""This must be a result of the family's research. This seed has been stained with blood, the blood of the Allen family's ancestors from a hundred years ago.""What?" Judy shrugged and said, "Is it hard to understand? It probably involves a joint expedition team formed by both sides, but when it came to dividing the profits, they got into a fight and it turned into a brawl."
