Raising Octopus Juvenile - Chapter 79
Arnold’s birthday is very happy.
He originally thought that only the birthdays of two people with Cecil would be the happiest. He didn’t expect that there were so many people this year, but he didn’t feel disgusted or dissatisfied.
I even faintly hope that next year’s birthday can be spent like this.
But he didn’t intend to express his feelings-Cecil would laugh at him after hearing it.
After this, Arnold secretly handed the second prince’s reply to Cecil, and Cecil forwarded the letter to Lena before going to bed.
Lena was very happy: “Sister, Mr. Cavaliers have asked me to meet again!”
Cecil: “Oh? When is this time?”
“Seven days later, at 6 o’clock in the afternoon, see you in the bookstore…” Lena put the envelope on her chest and said joyfully, “It’s great that he is not angry.”
“He won’t be angry.” Cecil patted her on the shoulder. “He is a reasonable person.”
Lena raised her face and asked her shyly, “Do you think so too?”
“Um… uh, I guess.” Cecil touched his nose vaguely.
At least when playing games, among the three targets, the second prince Theodore is the one who looks the most sound. Good-looking, gentle gentleman, understanding, and lofty conviction, all aspects are much higher than Alex and Renault.
Of course, it is very boring to play a role that is too perfect, which is one of the reasons why Cecil is not interested in him.
“He’s really reasonable.” Lena squeezed the envelope shyly, then looked at Cecil expectantly, and said, “Sister, in seven days…Can I ask you to go with me?”
Cecil pointed to himself in surprise: “Me?”
Lena: “Hmm… I’m not as embarrassed to go by myself…”
This, to be their light bulb?
This will not go against the will of the world at all. It’s better to say that her original role was to act as a light bulb and then catalyze the feelings between the male and female lords with crappy tactics. It’s just this situation…
Cecil originally wanted to refuse, but when she met Lena’s extremely expectant look, she was embarrassed to speak again.
“……okay then.”
“Yeah, sister, you are so kind!” Lena happily hugged her, and the little octopus poked and crawled in her sleeve, very dissatisfied.
Cecil ignored him.
As a result, as soon as she returned to the house, she was entangled in all fours by Lanny, unable to move. The only thing she had time to do was to put a layer of soundproofing on her room in a hurry.
Lanny shook his tentacles unhappily: “You ignore me again.”
Cecil hurriedly said: “I don’t have any, wait, I can explain, wait a minute… well…”
This night, she paid a painful price for her behavior.
After that, Cecil’s life was fairly peaceful.
Arnold continues to be busy with the work of the Knights, and now the number of mutants outside has increased, and their workload has also increased a lot. Kevin also became fascinated, not knowing what he was doing all day. Renault will come every other day, mainly to teach Lena how to maximize the effectiveness of the healing technique. It has to be said that he has done an impeccable job in teaching people to learn-even though he believes in a cult.
In addition, he occasionally said a few words to Cecil.
It’s not a topic that Cecil likes, it mainly revolves around the keywords “muter”, “monster” and “unknown”.
“Do you think I am the kind of person who is very interested in the survival of the world?” Cecil asked him with a smile.
Renault faintly replied: “No, but you will at least care about the people you care about.”
Cecil: “What do you mean?”
“There are dangerous monsters around you.” Renault said blankly. “Aren’t you afraid that it will harm your family?”
Cecil looked at him steadily and smiled swiftly: “Does the monster you mean refers to you?”
Renault did not speak any more.
Bode told Cecil that he had been investigating the Star Crossing Society recently and found that this secret association had grown rapidly in a very short period of time. The fear of the mutants has caused more humans to seek the help of gods, and the appearance of the Star Cross Society has just given them comfort and hope.
An ancient and powerful **** that has existed tens of thousands of years ago, as long as you believe in him piously, you can get his asylum-this condition sounds too absurd, but there are indeed people who are lucky enough to join the Star Crossing. Survived under the attack of the mutants.
This makes more people of the empire begin to believe that the old **** is sheltering his followers.
“You did it?” Cecil looked at the expressionless young man with a scrutiny gaze, and said slowly, “I heard that those who were rescued saw a golden crescent light. According to me You know, that seems to be a spell?”
Renault whispered: “It’s a spell that everyone can learn.”
Cecil: “But if you can achieve such a low-level spell to such an extreme level, you should be the only one in the entire king.”
Their dialogue is completely over. After this, Renault never looked for her again.
The days passed quietly like running water, and finally, it was the day when Lena and the second prince met.
Lena put on a nice little skirt, her long golden hair was braided into two lovely braids, and the end of her hair was tied into two light bows with a pink ribbon. Cecil, as usual, wore a skirt with pockets and hid the little octopus inside.
In the evening, Arnold sent the two girls to the door of the bookstore, waved to them, and continued to work on the Knights.
Because the target of the meeting was the second prince, he was not worried at all. The second prince promised him that he would hide in the dark with enough men and horses to ensure the safety of the girls. The second prince himself was also extremely capable of swordsmanship. He would not be a problem with him.
The sky gradually darkened. Lena clenched her skirt tightly and slowly opened the door of the store. The wind chimes made a crisp sound, the light was lingering, and a slender figure appeared in her vision.
“…Mr. Cavalier.” After seeing the Junya youth in front of her, Lena’s face suddenly turned red, “Good evening.”
The second prince Theodore smiled softly: “Good evening, Lena.”
The two smiled face to face, the atmosphere was quiet and sweet. Cecil consciously walked aside and slowly hid his figure behind the rows of bookshelves.
She stood between two rows of tall bookshelves, took out a book casually, and flipped through it absent-mindedly.
It’s very nice and private, it will not disturb Lena’s date, and it is suitable for her to whisper to the little octopus.
Cecil thought this way. Just as he was about to open his pockets, a low voice suddenly sounded beside the bookshelf: “Cecile?”
Cecil raised his face, followed the voice, and saw Marty across the bookshelf on the left.
Marty smiled gently at her and said, “What a coincidence, I will meet you here.”
Cecil nodded: “We always seem to meet at a very coincidental time.”
“Maybe this is fate.” Marty blinked playfully, walked around the bookshelf, and walked to her side.
“Go out for a while? It’s not suitable for relaxing and chatting.”
Cecil glanced at Lena not far away, and responded in a low voice, “Let’s go.”
She also didn’t want to disturb Lena’s date.
Marty took her out of the bookstore lightly. When he walked out the door, Cecil found that the sky outside was completely dark.
“It’s always getting dark recently.” Marty raised his head and said with a chuckle.
Cecil also raised his face and looked at the dim stars in the night: “Why is this happening?”
Marty curled her lips and looked at her gently: “Because the long night is coming.”
Cecil stopped looking up, silently lowered his eyes, and looked directly at him quietly: “What do you mean?”
“Variants.” Marty sighed softly, looking at the sparse pedestrians, “You see, there are fewer and fewer people on the road. Although your Majesty wants to try his best to appease his people, you can’t. What is denied is that the number of mutants is still continuously increasing.”
“More and more people are beginning to believe that the empire can’t save them.”
“What about you, Cecil?” Marty looked sideways, his eyes gentle and shallow, “Do you think these people will be saved?”
Cecil said coldly: “I don’t care if they will be saved.”
Marty was startled slightly, then smiled happily.
“It’s indeed a different answer. You really are a very special girl…” Marty smiled so that his eyes were bent, his profile became more beautiful in the night, and the light blonde tail hanging on his shoulders trembled slightly, exuding With a dim halo, “Then I will change another question…”
He slowly stopped smiling, looked at Cecil intently, and said, “Do you think you will be saved?”
Cecil thought about it seriously: “No.”
“why?”
“Because I am not lucky.” Cecil said, “Only lucky people have the opportunity to be saved, and the opportunities are limited, so I did not.”
Marty looked at her quietly, with shards of light floating in her faint eyes: “Actually, you are already very lucky.”
Cecil couldn’t tell what kind of emotion he had in his eyes.
It doesn’t seem to like it, nor does it seem to be a mockery.
…It’s more like yearning.
Cecil thought about it carefully, and suddenly smiled softly.
“You are right, I am indeed lucky. No, to be precise, I should be the luckiest person in the world.”
Her smile was so soft, there was a kind of almost radiant brilliance, so that Marty was a little surprised at this moment, even a little lost.
“Why did you suddenly change your mind?” he asked puzzledly.
Cecil said softly: “Because I think of it, I have someone I love, and someone who loves me.”
“Is it just that?” Marty seemed to think this answer was a little funny.
“It’s just that.”
Marty shook his head, looking regretful.
“I thought you would be more rational.”
Cecil did not answer his words, but looked at the walking crowd quietly, with faint starlight gleaming in the faint blue eyes.
“But even so, you are still very special.” Marty smiled again, and he stretched out his hand to invite Cecil, “Cecile, join us, for…”
Before he finished speaking, a drop of red liquid suddenly fell on the palm of his hand.
Warm, sticky, with a strong fishy smell.
It’s blood.
Cecil and Marty looked up together.
A huge round hole appeared in the dark night sky, and blood ticked down along the inner edge of the hole, scarlet and mellow, like hot magma.
Then they saw the hand bones of countless skeletons sticking out of the hole.
More and more blood was dripping down, and a huge giant monster made up of countless skeletons slowly descended from the air.
The last gleam of moonlight was obscured.
According to eyewitnesses, there was no sign when the skeleton monster descended.
At 7:13 in the evening, a blood hole appeared in the sky above Jielan Lane, the capital of the king.
At 7:14 in the evening, the skeleton monster landed from the blood hole.
At 7:15 in the evening, the skeleton monster bent down its bloated body and looked at the blond youth and snow-haired **** the ground.
At 7:16 in the evening, the skeleton monster opened its mouth full of teeth. The girl shook her hand vigorously and threw a small object out.
In the next second, the youth and girl were swallowed by the monster.
