An Illustrated Guidebook To Other Races - Chapter 99
After waking up this time, you vaguely realized that there seemed to be something different about yourself.
But where exactly has changed, you can’t tell.
It is not a change that can be observed by the naked eye, but a subtle change between invisible and invisible.
I thought I just slept for a short time, until you saw the haggard and exhausted look in Shalena’s brows and eyes and this magnificent ancient castle, you only learned from Shalena’s mouth that in Werner Nearly ten days have passed since the imperial alliance ceremony was attacked and injured by the beautiful female demon named Mamen.
The female devil’s behavior is very strange. She can kill you directly on the spot, but she has not done so, and her target seems to be you at the beginning, because with her skill, if she wants to kill you by the way Shalena next to it is also easy.
Although Mammon didn’t kill you directly, she also caused almost fatal damage to you. Your chest was penetrated by the devil’s claws.
The heart was grabbed by her hand at the time, and it seemed to be crushed with a little effort.
But she didn’t do this. Instead, she painted a weird sealing circle on your heart with her nails. This process is very long, but in fact it is only a momentary matter.
Although there is no pain in your chest when it is pierced by the devil’s claws, after Mammon withdraws his hand, the suppressed pain will sweep over the sky, making you completely unconscious when you have no time to react.
The magical power of high-level demon comes with some special effects of curse and light magic immunity, even if a handful of high-level priests of the Holy See personally come to cast healing magic on you, it is invalid.
After all the hardships, she was finally able to find her only sister, but in a blink of an eye she was about to face the pain of losing you again. This made Shalena, who has always had a tough personality, almost broke her.
But when I heard Shalena with a nearly trembling tone, recalling the fear and panic of you, who was covered with blood at that time, if you were in the past, you would have been heartbroken and began to comfort her, but the truth is Go, after listening to all this, it took a while to react and calmed Shalena quite jerky for a while.
You thought that it was because you were injured that you were so slow to respond, but in the next few days, you also vaguely noticed something wrong.
You seem to… lost a part of human feelings.
I can’t even feel my heartbeat.
The body temperature has also become much lower than that of ordinary people, and the observation power and sensitivity of things around the body have also risen a lot.
Is your body… still human?
In order not to cause Shalena’s worries, you didn’t tell her what happened to your body. In the past few days after you woke up, she would take time to look at you every day, but you saw her under her eyelids. Day after day, the signs of bruises and the solemn annoyance that occasionally flashes between the eyebrows.
You never thought that your sister would actually be the daughter of the Duke. You have also met the Duke of Alfred and his wife. From the expressions in their eyes, you can see that they really love Shalena, as well as in their hearts. I am really happy for her, so that if something happens to you, she also has her real family to accompany and support her through it.
However, Shalena, who has restored her status as a lady of the Duchess, is not so relaxed. She has a full schedule every day, and she has very little spare time for rest. After all, she has almost nothing to know about the aristocracy for so many years. I know that if you continue to act carelessly and recklessly as before, it will only cause others to laugh and contempt.
Although Miss Duchess’s status is very noble, but you think, Shalena in the mercenary group seems to be happier and more free.
There is nothing in life that has the best of both worlds. If you have gains, you will lose. This is Shalena’s decision. As her sister, you will support her choice anyway.
When you are sitting on the bed and looking out the window, the noise from the door makes you suddenly regain your senses.
In the next second, the door slammed and was knocked open from outside.
“This is my house, why can’t I come in?”
After the door opened, a coquettish and willful female voice came over at any time.
You turn your head and look, and you find a young woman who is about the same age as your sister, but with a more delicate appearance, wearing a palace-style high-waisted dress, is staring at you with dissatisfaction.
“Are you the sister that the woman picked up?”
Before you have time to answer, the maid next to the woman looked embarrassed and persuaded: “Miss Bailey, stop making trouble. If Miss Shalena comes back, you will definitely be angry.”
“I didn’t do anything to her, why is she mad at me?”
The woman pushed the maid away and walked to the bed, looking down at you condescendingly, “You haven’t answered my question yet.”
You froze for a moment, then you remembered that Shalena had told you that the daughter of the fake duke who had exchanged identities with her had also stayed in the Duke’s mansion as an adopted daughter. Although she was not related by blood, she was also nurtured. After so many years, how could there be no feelings at all.
It seems that the woman in front of me is the fake princess who was stolen.
“Hello, may I ask if you have anything to do with me?” You try to greet gently in polite language.
The woman said frankly: “It’s nothing, I just come to see how you look like.”
You were stunned, and then you saw this woman sitting on the side of the bed very familiar, looking at you with twinkling eyes, but spit out provocative words: “I am the fake who occupies the position of your sister, I Not only did she occupy the love of her parents, she also wore her dresses and jewelry, and enjoyed the princess life of the princess for more than two decades. As her sister, you must hate me very much, right?”
For a while, you can’t react to the real purpose of this woman who seems to be unkind but weird in words and deeds. She looks expectantly, as if she wants you to have a fight with her.
“Why should I hate you?” You blinked a little blankly and said hesitantly: “This incident was not your fault.”
You pursed your lips and smiled a little embarrassedly, “If you didn’t exchange with your sister, maybe I wouldn’t be her sister. Seriously speaking, I am actually a little grateful to you.”
As if she didn’t expect your answer at all, the woman was stunned for a while, and then snorted suddenly: “No wonder you can become sisters. That person’s answer is the same as you. Instead, I made me look like a petty petty kid. ”
“It was not what I was willing to exchange. As soon as my identity was exposed, the people who rushed to please me in the past changed their faces and ignored me as if they were air. They didn’t even want to say anything to me, as if I were He’s a vicious and despicable bad guy.”
The woman laughed at the corners of her mouth, her eyes gradually enveloped in loss and depression.
You hesitated and said softly: “If you don’t mind, you can talk to me when you have time…”
“Huh, who do you think you are? I just need your charity!”
The woman seemed to be irritated. She suddenly got up and stared at you fiercely and walked out the door. However, when she reached the door, she suddenly stopped, her cheeks were slightly red, and her expression struggled for a while before hesitating. Asked: “You…when do you usually have time?”
When she was behind, she immediately added, “Don’t think too much, I just asked casually.”
You glanced at the woman with a weird expression, and then couldn’t help but say, “You have time these days. You can come and find me at any time.”
“Who is looking for you?”
The woman glared at you with anger and anger, and left like she had come.
You couldn’t help but smile. At first, you thought she was here to trouble you, but you didn’t expect that this eldest lady who seemed to be arrogant and instigated was actually just a duplicity and arrogant.
As soon as the woman left, you looked into the shadowed corner of the room and called out. “Mr. Aleucus.”
As soon as the voice fell, there was a wave of magical power in the shadow-shrouded corner, and a handsome demon with black hair and red eyes slowly appeared in front of your eyes.
“When did you find me?” The corners of the demon youth’s lips raised slightly.
“As soon as you appeared in the room, I knew you were coming.”
The smile on Aleucus’ lips slowly disappeared.
“Mr. Aleucus, can you tell me what happened to me?”
You looked at him very seriously and said, “Please don’t deceive me. Although I am not very smart, I also know the changes that have taken place in me, and I don’t want to become a terrible monster when I am ignorant. .”
After a pause, you added in a low voice, “In fact, I heard some of your conversation with Mr. Reynolds.”
The demon youth stared at you quietly for a moment, and then smiled helplessly: “I thought I could keep it a little longer.”
Knowing that he couldn’t hide it anymore, Aleucus was silent for a while before telling you the truth.
It turned out that after discovering that your breathing is getting weaker and your vital signs are gradually declining, Reynolds cast a forbidden technique on you to save your life.
However, forbidden techniques can only play a prolonged role, and cannot restore your declining body to the original. The reason why forbidden techniques is classified as forbidden is because such spells usually have considerable negative effects.
As the price of prolonging your life, part of your emotions are gradually disappearing. Once the effect of the forbidden technique fails, your body will still die due to excessive weakness.
No wonder Renault disappeared after you woke up, maybe he was afraid of his own claims and was ashamed to treat you.
“Miss May, don’t worry, we will definitely find a way to save you.” The Demon Youth comforted you.
You pursed your lips and shook your head lightly, “It’s okay, this result is much better than what I had expected for the worst.”
You should have died a long time ago. You are very lucky to live more than ten years, and you have met so many people who care about you. Why are you not satisfied?
The only regret is probably that I can’t see my sister gaining happiness with my own eyes, but now she has her own real family, and you have nothing to worry about.
“Mr. Aleucus, can you please grant me a wayward request?”
The demon youth nodded slowly.
“If one day, my body really can’t hold on any longer, can you please take me out of here, and then tell my sister that I have traveled to a far place, every once in a while, please help me send her a A letter to let her know that I am still alive somewhere in this world.”
“It’s also a very lucky thing for me to meet Mr. Aleucus.”
“I have been taking care of you so much all the time, I don’t know how to thank you…”
A thin layer of tears appeared in your eyes, but there was still a gentle smile on your face.
Aleucus was silent for a moment, and the corner of his mouth twitched, “Unexpectedly, I would be so jealous of a human being, so I can be so concerned about you…”
He suddenly leaned down, and in your slightly surprised eyes, a feathery kiss fell between your brows.
When you are nervous and at a loss because of his actions.
The demon with black hair and red eyes sighed lowly.
“This is reward.”
