In the candlelight, it is dark and red.
There were also a few fruits that were already hard and some were even frozen dry. The color was a bit dull and the taste was not very good. You might even feel that they would cause your teeth to crack.
The dinner seemed rich, but the quality was not satisfactory and it was difficult to smell the aroma of the meat. I guess it was because the lack of spices made it difficult to make up for it in the cooking.
But compared to the civilians outside, at least they can eat their fill here, but the taste is a little worse.
Luo Sheng started eating without hesitation, chewing slowly until the hard pieces of meat were chewed into small pieces before swallowing them.
Raphne drank some wine and looked at him.
She also slowly ate the tasteless food. She had long been accustomed to this kind of bran-like food. Her movements were still graceful, ignoring the bad feeling the food brought her.
Finally, he couldn't help but speak, "You are really a special human. Do you understand the consequences of pursuing a succubus? And one of royal blood."
"I don't care. You should be able to see my strength."
"It's really strange. With your ability, you are at least a great lord in the human kingdom. What's more, am I so attractive to you? Or... you just want to experience the feeling of living a life of drunkenness and dreaming. I can fulfill your wish now."
"That's not necessary. I'm just attracted to you." Luo Sheng said lightly, with a warm smile on his face, like the warm sunshine in spring.
Raphne shook her head helplessly, as if she had heard something ridiculous. "Unfortunately, we won't get any results. I hope you're mentally prepared."
After all, the conflict between humans and demon sub-humans is irreconcilable, and as a member of the royal family, it is impossible for her to marry a human easily.
Even though her bloodline is not pure and her subjects may object.
Luo Sheng smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. I never expected any reward."
For him, he only needs the card to become more powerful. As for other things, they are irrelevant. The purpose of entering the card is also very clear, which is just to strengthen the card.
"What an interesting guy." Raphney gently put down her knife and fork, staring at him with her deep pupils.
The cold wind was still blowing outside the castle, but it was unusually warm inside the house.
Raphne was very considerate and stayed with him until the end of the meal, as a way of thanking him for his hard work that day, until Luo Sheng left.
Raphney returned to the balcony and looked at the small town in the night with the lights dim. She was wondering what important thing she was thinking about. Today had brought her too many surprises.
Luo Sheng was arranged to live in a slightly tidier house, which was considered the best place in the castle, but it also looked very simple, with only a broken wooden table and chairs and a slightly shabby bed.
Luo Sheng lay on the slightly uncomfortable bed, with his hands resting on his head. "This girl is very suspicious. It seems that we can only take it slowly. I wonder if the development of the territory will help her strength?"
Ravni is the weirdest card he has ever enhanced.
Her temper is unpredictable, and it is much more difficult than cards like Bai Moxue, Ai Keli, and Alice. Perhaps the starting point of this card is high, and it is quite difficult to strengthen it.
But he was not discouraged, the time passing in the card world was still 1:15.
"Mr. Luo, I am a servant here. If you need any service, please tell me." A maid who looked like a wolf girl knocked on the door and said respectfully.
She was specially sent by Raphney to serve Luo Sheng, and there was a hint of shyness on her face.
"Not for now..." Luo Sheng wanted to refuse, but then he remembered something, "Um...are there any books here? I need some books."
"Okay." The wolf girl nodded and left the room.
A moment later, he came in holding several old books bound in parchment, "These are the only books left in the castle."
"Okay, Mr. Luo."
The wolf girl placed the books on the broken wooden table and waited there quietly, without moving, obviously having no intention of leaving.
Luo Sheng seemed to understand Raphne's intention, but he just wanted someone to reward him, so he said: "You don't need to stay here, go back and rest, I'm used to being alone."
"Um...Okay..."
The wolf girl then left the room.
Luo Sheng used the dim candlelight to open the parchment-bound book, which was filled with the words of the demon sub-humans themselves. Relying on the analysis of his mental power, Luo Sheng barely understood the contents.
This is a fantasy continent.
In the most ancient period, various races lived on this continent, including centaurs, sheepmen... and so on. Humans were originally a branch of sub-humans, and even a symbol of a weak race.
After all, each race has unique talents. Some are incredibly strong, some are good at running wildly, and some have a relatively long lifespan.
On the contrary, humans are only good at reproduction, but as the population increases, they gradually surpass all sub-humans, establish their own country, and expel other sub-human races.
As time went by, demi-humans were collectively referred to as demons by humans. They themselves also accepted this name and were driven to the other side by humans. They gathered a large number of various populations to establish a country to compete with humans.
Subsequently, the entire continent was divided into the East Continent and the West Continent.
The two sides were in extreme confrontation, with only sporadic commercial trade and no other exchanges. Wars broke out frequently, with both sides fighting to the death.
The demon kingdom where Raphne was located was a powerful kingdom ruled by a succubus, but because of her impure bloodline, she was assigned to a small, remote town.
When Luo Sheng read these books, he felt like he was watching a game of thrones.
He spent the whole evening reading.
The next day, Luo Sheng had to continue serving the town and light up "Spring Returns to the Earth" on another mountain so that the group of sub-human hunters could hunt and solve the famine problem in the town.
He didn't know how long he would have to do this.
This continued for the next few days, for about five days.
One day, Raphne came out of the castle. She was wearing simple purple clothes and white gloves, and was walking on the snow-covered streets of the town.
The town now regained its vitality.
The streets were full of common people selling jams, dried meats, or wild vegetables, and the sounds of hawking were endless. They were tired of one kind of food and planned to exchange it with others for other foods to taste.
There were no more hungry civilians on the streets, and the townspeople's originally pale faces gradually returned to normal and showed a hint of vitality.
The werewolf guard said, "It's all thanks to Mr. Luo, otherwise I don't know how long I would have been freezing there."
Raphne nodded. "This guy is more concerned about this than I am. I wonder what he wants to do."
The werewolf guard said subconsciously: "Isn't he doing this for you, Lord?"
Raphne smiled lightly at first, then her face turned serious.
Thanks to the enthusiastic citizens Lu Xiaoshu, Feng Xuanjun, and Zui YUE for their rewards~ (End of this chapter)
