Chapter 630: Roselle and Arrodes
"You are the pioneer of the steam age who left endless legends, the romantic poet who has never been surpassed, the governor of the Republic of Intis, the great Emperor Roselle!"
"Oh, my God, I finally saw you in person. You are as heroic and handsome as the rumors say."
"I didn't expect you to appear in front of me in this way. It really makes me feel uneasy and my heart is surging."
Arrodes showed words of praise on the mirror, trying his best to show his admiration for Roselle.
Rossel sighed, "Don't be so funny, you broken mirror, it's not like I didn't meet you when I was in the Steam Church."
"Oh my God, you still remember that little encounter! It's really my honor!"
"... Speak nicely!" Roselle couldn't stand Arrodes' enthusiasm.
"Okay." Arrodes ended this flattery and remained silent.
"Tell me, when did the master-servant relationship between you and Klein begin?"
"Backlund two years ago."
Arrodes' brief answer appeared on the mirror. Just as Rosel was about to ask the second question, he saw a line of words on the mirror. This was a question.
"When you knew that witches were transformed by men taking magic potions, were you more excited?"
"?!" Rosel's mouth twitched, and he wanted to smash the broken mirror directly. What kind of messed up question was this!
"I refuse to answer!"
Rosel raised his head slightly, and then a blood-red thunder descended vertically, striking his chestnut hair. Rosel once again felt the comfortable feeling of electric numbness all over his body.
Rosel, with his hair exploding, stared at Arrodes for a while, gnashing his teeth and said, "Are you really not afraid that I will find a cesspool and throw you in?"
"Afraid." Arrodes answered honestly, and then the second question appeared on the mirror.
"What type of women do you like most in your life?"
"I TM..."
Before Rosel finished his curse, another blood-red lightning descended, burning his whole body.
At this time, a series of sad and crying expressions appeared on the mirror of Arrodes, followed by a sentence.
"According to the principle of equivalence, if you ask me a question, I must also ask you a question. This is not something I can control."
"..." Rosel gritted his teeth and said, "Broken mirror, you definitely did it on purpose!"
"Is this also a question?"
"..."
Rosel didn't say anything else, grabbed a piece of black cloth from the air, and covered the ancient silver mirror.
"I almost forgot this feeling. I remember that I seemed to have been struck by this mirror before."
Rosel thought carefully. He used to treat this mirror as a magic mirror that would answer any question, and he was really struck by lightning many times at that time.
Thinking of this, Roselle lifted the black cloth and stared at Arrodes with a bad look, "I was wondering why you were so crazy about trying to please me when you saw me. It turns out that you also remember what you did to me in the past."
"Is this a problem?"
"Don't think about getting away with it. You are such a black-hearted mirror. You even dare to deceive me. Do you really think I dare not split you in half?"
"Is this a problem?"
"Hehe, just chop me. Every time you chop me, I will return you to Klein one day later. You must miss your master very much, right?"
"Please pay attention to your words. Your thoughts are very dangerous."
"I TM..."
...
In the deep palace of the Balam Empire in the southern continent, Hastur walked out of the room today and came to the yard to relax.
During this period, after Roselle was resurrected, he could basically provide him with some interesting laughs every day, so that he often stayed on the Hall of Stars, overlooking Roselle's every move.
"Master, I'm so bored." Azshara, who turned into a little black cat and basked in the sun on the roof, jumped and landed accurately on Hastur's shoulder.
Hastur patted Azshara's head with a smile, "Hasn't Sharon arranged some courses for you recently?"
"I don't want to learn..." Azshara flicked her tail, "I don't want to become like Susie, immersed in books all day long."
"And Miss Audrey, she seems to have been stimulated recently and has become as diligent in reading as Susie."
Hastur listened to Azshara's report and said with a smile, "Let's go and take a look."
Azshara lay on Hastur's shoulder and stretched out her right front paw to point the way. Hastur soon came to the library where the royal family of the Balam Empire treasured treasures.
In the rows of bookshelves, Audrey and Susie each occupied a corner, without disturbing each other, and silently flipped through the knowledge they wanted to learn.
Hastur did not disturb them, but deliberately controlled his breath and footsteps, standing outside the gate and looking into the distance.
After being enlightened and guided by Hermes, Susie now has a stronger scholarly aura. The pair of gold-rimmed glasses on her face add a bit of university scholar temperament.
Just this temperament, he must be a college student at least.
Audrey frowned as she flipped through the books. When she encountered a point of knowledge that was difficult to understand or could not be understood immediately, she would write it down on a blank piece of paper. Moreover, the books she read were divided into very detailed categories, and they basically belonged to the same field.
The rustling sound of flipping through the books also aroused Hastur's interest in reading. Since coming to the southern continent, he had obviously flipped through books much less frequently than in Backlund.
After watching it for a while, Hastur walked to the bookshelf near Audrey, picked a book "A Hundred Years of History of the Balam Empire" and came to the empty seat next to Audrey. Azshara had already ran to where Susie was. place.
"Mr. Hastur, please go to Susie's place to read so as not to affect my study." Audrey said seriously without raising her head.
"Are you starting to compete with Susie in terms of learning speed?"
"Don't talk to me, you'll be distracted." Audrey's cheeks were slightly pouted, like a little bun, which made Hastur want to poke her.
"Okay, I'll go over to Susie's side."
Before Hasta turned around to leave, Audrey put down the book in her hand, coughed lightly and said, "Mr. Hasta, since your arrival has disturbed my interest in reading, how should you compensate me?"
Hasta replied seriously: "Beautiful Miss Audrey, in order to be fair, I will also interfere with Susie's reading and distract her attention so that she cannot concentrate on studying."
"It doesn't have to be so obvious." Audrey's cheeks turned slightly red. "Susie hasn't left the library for a long time. What I mean is that she needs a good rest and can't be obsessed with books all the time."
"This is undoubtedly the right and reasonable decision."
"Really?" Audrey's eyes lit up slightly.
"Of course." Hasta held Audrey's little hand, kissed the back of it, and said with a smile: "Our Miss Audrey should also take a good rest and spend some time with her lover."
"For Mr. Hastur's sake, I will temporarily stop studying today." Audrey had a relieved expression on her face.
A few days ago, she actually lost to Susie in knowledge, which made her realize that she needed to study hard, otherwise Susie would quickly surpass her on the road of knowledge.
So she also came to this library and began to compete with Susie.
Today is already the third day, and she does feel a little tired. She likes reading, but reading out of interest and out of competition are two completely different experiences.
But she couldn't take the initiative to admit defeat. Fortunately, Mr. Hastur came here at the critical moment.
"You, you can use Azshara more in the future. She doesn't like to see Susie studying all the time."
"Is it really useful?" Audrey leaned her head on Hastur's shoulder, tilting her head to reveal a pair of bright, obviously moving eyes.
"Of course, Azshara is the one who dislikes studying the least among you."
"Isn't this too despicable?"
"We are doing this for Susie's sake. It is not a good thing to be addicted to books all the time. You need to balance work and rest."
In the end, Audrey accepted the suggestion without much rejection after Hastur's repeated persuasion.
The two of them were in the library, cuddling up against the books for a while, when several cats meowing and a dog barking came from the other side.
"Look, Azshara is very professional when it comes to dealing with Susie."
"Aissala is great!" Audrey showed a sweet smile, her joy was beyond words, and then she pretended to be reserved and said: "I am doing this for Susie's own good."
Not long after, Susie and Azshara came to Hastur and Audrey.
"The weather is nice today, let's go out for a walk." Hastur glanced at Susie and said seriously: "Emperor Russell also has a famous saying, reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles."
"Woof!" Susie, who was originally depressed, suddenly became energetic.
…
At night, after returning from an outing, Hasta took a bath and then fell asleep hugging Audrey.
Audrey snuggled into Hasta's arms, gently traced Hasta's chest with her right index finger, and whispered: "Is Mr. Hasta busy with something important?"
"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the person next to you." Hasta's arms around Audrey's waist tightened, "I am indeed making a decision."
"Can't you let me and Miss Sharon go?"
"If something happens to you, I'm afraid I won't be able to get back in time."
"Going to such a far place?"
"Yeah, Starry Sky."
