Lucifer behind him saw that she seemed angry and ignored him, his brows slightly furrowed. Seeing that she was about to rush towards the heavily guarded mermaid city, his blue-green pupils rarely flashed with a strange color.
"What are you going to do? That is the territory of the mermaids. Outsiders are not allowed to enter." He stood directly in front of Sheng Wu.
This is no joke. The mermaids have the strongest sense of territory among all races. Once other races fall into the sea, they can easily be strangled as invading enemies. The mermaids' control over the underwater world is unquestionable. Anyone who conflicts with them underwater is seeking death.
Hearing this, Sheng Wu finally reacted slightly, slowly stopped, and finally glanced at him.
"What about you? You can go in?"
Although he didn't know what she was going to do, Lucifer nodded.
"Yes." Because he is the most powerful archangel.
Sheng Wu, "Then take me in."
"what are you up to."
"I need blood. I need the blood of the mermaid royal family." After a pause, she said directly, "If you want to help me, then help me. If you don't want to help me, I will find it myself."
Hearing this, Lucifer's handsome face slightly stiffened, his eyes showing obvious disapproval. "So you plan to kill a mermaid and provoke the entire mermaid tribe to hunt you down."
"right."
Sheng Wu uttered a word calmly.
"..." Lucifer was speechless again because of her words. It was the first time he found someone who could make him speechless. Without thinking, he pursed his lips and spoke softly.
"No, the mermaid royal family are all important beings. I can't kill them without God's order."
He rejected the Holy Charm; he could not kill without the command of God.
Seeing that it was another fool who obeyed God so strictly, Sheng Wu was amused. She clearly didn't say that he was here to kill her.
He scoffed and looked up at Lucifer, looking like he was willing to settle for the next best thing.
"Okay, then let's do this. I don't want blood anymore. Just take me to the mermaid tribe and see the world."
I was originally worried that her bold and rebellious character would lead to her doing something wrong and causing disaster, or even angering God, to the point that...
Lucifer, who was asked to kill her personally, felt an indescribable sense of relief in his heart, and nodded in agreement without even thinking.
"Okay, I can promise you this." He paused, a little worried about her rebellious nature, "But you must stay close to me, no more than one meter away."
His clear blue eyes were indescribably deep as he looked at her with a hint of joy and relief. As long as she didn't do anything rash, he could satisfy her requests.
He also didn't want him to be the one to execute her if she rebelled against God...
"Can."
Seeing that he agreed so quickly, Sheng Wu knew that her method of deliberately making things difficult for him and then settling for the next best thing had worked.
Moreover, she tested the extent of Lucifer's attitude towards her.
The data in the system is dead, and each person has different data. Only a fool would judge friendship by just looking at that data.
"If you're worried, here, tie this red rope around your wrist. If I leave, you'll notice."
Sheng Wu made the promise very seriously and took out a braided red rope and tied it around Lucifer's wrist.
“?!”
Lucifer's tall body stiffened. He lowered his head and looked at the red rope that had been tied around his wrist. His blue-green pupils flashed with a trace of confusion and doubt, and a wisp of black-gold hair on his head swayed slightly.
"I'm the one who wants to supervise you, so why tie the rope to me instead of you?" The round eyes froze for a moment.
"Because you tied a rope, if I shake it you'll know I'm still there. If I tied a rope and wanted to escape, I'd put it on a fish. Would shaking it help?"
Even so, Lucifer still felt something was wrong. He lowered his eyes and looked at the red rope in deep thought, "But I tied the rope. You can also tie yours to a fish. If the fish shakes the rope, it will be fine, right?"
As he spoke, he shook his hand and pulled Sheng Wu's wrist at the other end of the red rope as if he was playing with something.
Sheng Wu: “…” This fool is not easy to fool.
After a pause, she suddenly came forward and got close to Lucifer's face, using the beauty trap.
"But the fish won't stay with you forever, only I will."
Her light tone was playful and cunning, and she met his dark eyes with extreme seriousness and tenderness.
“…”
In an instant, time seemed to miss a beat for a second, or in other words, it was a second in which the heartbeat quietly and secretly palpitated.
These words suddenly made Lucifer silent.
Sheng Wu met his gaze. His deep blue-green, beautiful gemstone eyes were as clear and pure as usual, but at this moment, as he looked at her, there seemed to be a glimmer of light buried deep beneath the calmness.
"But you lied to me once."
Lucifer suddenly remembered that the beautiful doll had left without saying goodbye before, and he lowered his eyes slightly to hide his expression.
"I lied to you before because you couldn't remember my name."
Sheng Wu, "I'm right in front of you now, can I just disappear out of thin air?"
"What's your name then?" Lucifer asked seriously.
After Sheng Wu left without saying goodbye, he deliberately did not ask anything about her, including her name.
This time he asked proactively, and it was obvious that he seemed to be hinting in a proud and arrogant way that he would not be angry if she told him her name.
Sheng Wu was silent for a second, then she raised her lips and smiled, shaking her head. "I can't tell you now. I'll tell you the next time we say goodbye."
These words made Lucifer frown slightly. He liked to be with the pretty doll, but he also understood that she was Lucius' wife, not his exclusive property.
"......Okay." He said okay, but deep down he actually felt a little bit of attachment and didn't want her to leave.
Sheng Wu noticed a hint of his emotion and lowered her eyes slightly, but she felt that he did not like her.
It's like a child who encounters a toy that he likes and is curious about, but finds out that the toy is just borrowed for him to take a look at, leaving him with reluctance and nostalgia.
