Laura's black branches and leaves were almost out of control.
However......
After realizing that Gladys praised Sosia in front of Him just to make "her" the little princess like Sosia...
The black branches and leaves that grew under the shadow of the demon forest rustled and merged back into the darkness.
Little did Gladys know, she was just a hair's breadth away from witnessing the terrifying evil god's ruthless destruction of the demon forest live on air.
Gladys listened to Laura's answer, catching a few words from her mouth. Gladys subconsciously asked, "Hmm? What are you missing?"
Laura closed her mouth, and "she" looked at Gladys and blinked thoughtfully.
There was a slight hint of emotion in "her" eyes, and Gladys felt that... Princess Lola looked at her with a hint of helplessness.
"What's wrong? Say something." Gladys scratched her cheek. "What are you thinking about?"
Laura was too lazy to continue.
Gladys felt itchy inside. What exactly does Princess Lola want...
Gladys thought...she was just introducing Sosia to Princess Lola. Judging from the little princess's cold reaction, Princess Lola actually didn't want to accept her recommendation.
"You really don't want to like Sosia?" Gladys said disappointedly.
Laura: "......" Why are you disappointed?
"No." Laura said.
Princess Lola's answer was too cold and reserved, and revealed a hint of disgust... Gladys felt a pain in her heart, and felt that the CP she was supporting was really about to fall apart.
The disappointment on Gladys's face grew. In the disappointment of her relationship falling apart, she unconsciously lowered her head, her red hair drooping from her shoulders, drooping...
Laura looked at her with lowered eyelashes.
"Why do you insist that I like Sosia?" Laura asked calmly, "Do you like that?"
Which?
White hair like Sosia?
Gladys looked up immediately.
She felt that what Princess Lola said was a bit strange. Although the princess' tone was calm, Gladys could still hear a hint of sourness in it.
"What do you mean?" Gladys narrowed her eyes, pondering the little princess's words. She said hesitantly, "My servant, do you... think that I, the evil witch, have a crush on Sosia?"
"Her Majesty the Witch seems to be very interested in Sosia." Lola said, pulling the corner of her lip.
After hearing what Laura said, Gladys understood.
No wonder Princess Lola dislikes Sosia so much...
Because little Princess Lola misunderstood that the evil witch had taken a fancy to Sosia!
Holy shit! This is outrageous!
"No... My slave, you misunderstood me." Gladys explained immediately.
Gladys thought to herself, no, no, I must not let Princess Lola hate Sosia because of her.
Gladys was a little anxious. "I definitely don't have a crush on Sosia."
Laura: "Really?"
Laura's tone suddenly became gentle, with a hint of laughter.
Gladys Chick nodded: "Really, really, I have no interest in Sosia."
Laura looked at her nodding head, her fingertips moving. He stretched out his hand, feeling a little itchy...
At this time, Sosia's voice came, "Little witch? Are you okay?"
Suosiya came over and said, "You have been standing here discussing for a long time. Have you encountered any problems?"
As soon as Sosia came over, Gladys quickly grabbed Lola and pushed her in front of her, using her tall body to block herself.
Seeing that Gladys directly refused to look him in the eye... Sosia: "?"
Gladys's evasion was too obvious...
Suosiya tilted her head and spoke in a slower tone, "Little witch, what's wrong?"
Gladys hid behind Laura and secretly wrote on Laura's back with her fingertips: I don't like Sosia, you will know next.
Gladys's fingertips brushed against Laura's spine, and Laura's eyelashes twitched.
Sosia heard Gladys' voice coming from behind Lola, "You don't have to come over. I'm not in any trouble right now. I was just teaching my servant a lesson. It has nothing to do with you."
"Is that so?" Suosiya paused and said, "But...if the little witch has any difficulties, just tell me directly. You're welcome."
Gladys continued, interrupting Sosia. "Really? But you don't have to talk to me. If you want to talk to me, my servant will answer the questions on my behalf... From now on, just talk to my servant."
Noticing that Gladys's attitude had turned cold, Sosia bit the corner of her lip. How could she still have two faces?
Suosiya: "Little witch, if you are willing, we can continue to cooperate in the future. The Blood Moon Mercenary Group also welcomes the powerful witch."
"Oh, you should discuss this matter with my servant. She's more familiar with the kingdom's affairs," Gladys said, her malicious and cold demeanor firmly in place. "Don't talk to me anymore. I don't want to listen."
Laura laughed.
Sosia: "......"
Because of Lola's laughter, Sosia looked at "her".
This dark-haired woman...
Her skin was cold and pale, her lips were so red they looked like blood, her face was incredibly delicate and beautiful, and her hair was cold and dark. There was something terrifying about her that made it impossible to look directly at her...
Sosia's breathing was slightly stagnant.
Gladys's view was blocked by Lola's tall back. The system was observing Sosia for Gladys. After a few seconds, the system said to Gladys, "Host, your method is really effective. Sosia seems to be stunned by the sight of Princess Lola."
Gladys quickly poked Laura on the back: Hurry up, take this opportunity to talk to Sosia.
Laura: “…”
Sosia stood in front of Laura and Gladys.
"Is there anything else?" Laura asked Sosia indifferently.
His voice was cold, and it was obvious that he didn't bother to pay attention.
However......
This tone aroused Sosia's unwillingness to admit defeat.
Sosia gave a friendly and sweet smile and asked Gladys through Laura.
"You've walked for so long, it must be very tiring. Little witch, do you want to eat something?"
Hearing this, Gladys began to write on Laura's back.
Then, Lola raised her eyelashes and said to Sosia expressionlessly, "The Witch asked if you brought any dry food?"
Sosia wanted to look at Gladys, but she was completely blocked by the black-haired woman... Sosia could only smile, "Yes, or rather... it's better than dry food. I have some Ruby Pigmon leg meat in my backpack. It's very fresh and can be roasted."
"I don't think it's necessary..." As soon as Laura spoke, Gladys poked her back hard with her finger, and Laura's back stiffened.
Gladys didn't notice Laura's strange behavior. She wrote on Laura's back: "Barbecue! We've been walking for so long, a barbecue isn't too much! Aren't you hungry?"
Laura: Sorry, I can go without food, water or sleep.
Sosia smiled and asked Laura, "This little witch's...speaking agent, what is the little witch's answer?"
Laura raised an eyebrow.
Elsewhere, Gladys was distracted while conversing with the system. The system's mechanical voice said in her mind, "Wow, host, I just captured a beautiful picture. I'll send it to you so you can take a look."
After the system is upgraded, you can take screenshots of what you observe and share them with Gladys.
After a few seconds, a screenshot of Sosia appeared in Gladys's mind: the boy had a sweet smile on his lips, his skin was very white, and his hair was even whiter. His white hair was so dazzling in the sunlight that it seemed to reflect light.
Gladys thought that she must let Princess Laura get this white-haired boy.
Gladys poked Lola on the back and wrote: My slave, please agree to Sosia and we will stop to eat barbecue.
"Her Majesty the Witch agreed to have dinner with you." Laura said slowly.
Sosia raised the corner of her lips.
Laura lowered her eyelashes, her golden eyes shimmering with a dark, beautiful light. She smiled gently and said matter-of-factly, "But you can't get too close to Her Majesty the Witch."
"Why?" Sosia frowned.
Laura's voice was perfect and elegant. "This is Her Majesty the Witch's rule. She doesn't like outsiders to get too close when eating."
Gladys:?
When did she have such rules...
But...it sounds good, especially when Princess Lola said it in an elegant tone with a hint of warning. Gladys felt that she, the evil witch, was really too noble.
And, more importantly, this rule was added by Lola herself. The docile little Princess Lola was rarely docile and secretly added such words...
It is obvious that Princess Lola definitely does not want Sosia to get too close to the evil witch!
What does this mean? It means she is jealous, she is jealous, she is jealous.
Being jealous means caring, and caring is the beginning of love. Gladys felt that the couple she was supporting could still be saved, so she quickly poked Lola's back and wrote on her back: It's happily decided, let's have barbecue next... Also, my slave, I allow you to stay away from my sight for a while and make barbecue with Sosia.
"No need. I'll just wait with Her Majesty the Witch." Lola said to Gladys. He grabbed Gladys's hand and pulled her out from behind. Then, he took Gladys's hand and led her to sit with him.
After Gladys sat down, her shoulder leaned against Lola's due to inertia. Her back stiffened for a moment, and she quietly moved a little to the side. Then she said nonchalantly, "My slave, why don't you grill with Sosia?"
Barbecuing together can allow for some unexpected physical contact, which can enhance relationships.
Laura glanced at Gladys and said calmly, "I am merely a servant of Her Excellency the Witch."
"So?" Gladys blinked.
"I just want to be with you, not have a barbecue with him." Laura said slowly, as if she was stating a theorem.
Gladys pondered Laura's answer... Well, after all, little Princess Laura was of noble status, and it was already frustrating enough for her to be treated like a slave by her evil witch. Now she definitely didn't want to do any more unnecessary work.
"Alright, I'll forgive you, the little princess, for your willfulness." Gladys patted Laura's shoulder. "We can sit here together and wait."
Laura smiled at Gladys, but... the next moment, she heard Gladys say, "This will be a good way to test Sosia's cooking skills. If we live together in the future, cooking skills will be very important."
The smile on Laura's lips immediately disappeared.
Gladys held her chin and looked at Sosia.
She is observing Sosia...
Gladys watched as the boy pulled a magic flint from his backpack. Sparks flew from the flint, and then he put the grill together. The armor on his arms was a little damaged, revealing jade-white skin. As he adjusted the grill, the muscles in his arms naturally tensed...
The blazing light of the flames shone on the boy's snow-white hair.
"Look, isn't he very handsome? Even his barbecue posture is so handsome. Are you a little moved?" said Gladys.
Laura: “…”
The killer has sharp senses, and Sosia's ears moved.
Sosia turned her head and smiled in the direction of Gladys and Laura.
"My slave, look, he is smiling at you, a beautiful woman. Isn't his smile beautiful? Does it make your heart flutter?" said Gladys.
Laura: “............”
Although Laura remained silent, this did not stop Gladys from continuing to persuade him. "My slave, are you really not considering him? If the target is Sosia, then I will reluctantly agree to let you be with this bastard. This opportunity will never come again."
"Your Excellency the Witch." Laura suddenly spoke.
Gladys: "What's wrong? Are you a little moved?"
Laura looked at Gladys with her golden eyes.
A moment later...
Gladys's shoulders shrank involuntarily.
Seeing her shivering shoulders...Lola pursed her lips and said gently and caringly, "Remember to eat well later and replenish your energy."
"Do I need to tell you that?" Gladys smiled immediately. She blinked and found that Laura's golden eyes were beautiful and calm, like a calm lake, deep, giving people a sense of quiet tranquility... There was no strange feeling just now.
An illusion? Gladys wondered.
After a while...
[Host, Sosia has prepared the barbecue.] The system's voice rang in Gladys's mind, and Gladys excitedly dragged Laura to eat the barbecue.
However......
When Sosia handed the prepared barbecue to Gladys and Lola, Gladys took a bite and her expression became conflicted...
This also...
It tastes so bad...
I don't know how Sosia did it, but the seasoning he added was just right to mask the aroma of the meat...
All that's left is the unpalatable food.
Gladys's taste buds had long been spoiled by Laura.
Gladys felt that the fried mushroom snacks that Princess Lola made for her tasted better than the barbecue she had now.
Gladys ate the barbecue made by Sosia, but it tasted like wax. In order not to waste food, she ate it slowly and reluctantly.
"How is it?" Sosia smiled at Gladys.
The boy's smile was sweet, with a slightly hooked ending... If it were a little girl in the mercenary group, she would have been mesmerized by Sosia's smile.
Gladys put down the plate in her hand, her expression silent. After eating the unpalatable barbecue, she suddenly couldn't praise it anymore.
After taking a few deep breaths, Gladys commented in a vicious tone, "Your barbecue tastes terrible. My slaves cook better than you."
Sosia didn't show any anger at Gladys's sarcasm. He scratched his cheek with his fingertips and said apologetically, "My sense of taste has been blocked due to an accident in my childhood... I'm sorry I can't make delicious barbecue and wasted Ruby Pigmon's leg meat."
Sosia's words reminded Gladys... Gladys remembered the background setting of Sosia in the original book.
When Sosia was born, she was abandoned in the snow and was picked up by the Blood Moon Mercenaries.
He was trained as a killer since he was a child, living on the edge of a knife. With his own efforts, he gradually grew into a young top killer...
A perfect example of beauty, strength and tragedy!
Gladys thought...the redemption-themed CP like the young killer and the gentle little princess is the best.
She asked the system, "Are there any props that can help the little princess and Suosiya create a world for two?"
The system's mechanical voice replied: "Props... Host, you can try to hatch the black dragon's egg."
Gladys:?
She said to the system in her mind: "I'm busy trying to match my perfect couple and don't have time to hatch eggs."
[But, there's a fire right now, and the barbecue fire hasn't gone out yet...wouldn't you consider putting the black dragon egg there to roast it?]
Gladys: "It doesn't matter where you bake, right? What's the point of baking now? The most important thing right now is the little princess and Sosia."
The system insisted that Gladys hatch the dragon egg.
[Host, this is what I just detected. I just detected that the place where you are is exactly the center of the magic power of the demon forest. I don't know why... the magic power of the demon forest is concentrated here.]
[This opportunity to gather magic power is rare. I recommend that the host take advantage of it and quickly hatch the black dragon egg.]
Worried that Gladys didn't understand the causal relationship between gathering magic power and quickly hatching dragon eggs, the system explained to Gladys why she should take advantage of the opportunity of gathering magic power: "Because if we roast the eggs now, the dragon cubs will hatch in about a few minutes."
[If I roast it later, it will take a long time, at least several years... I think the host probably doesn't want to waste witch crystals on egg hatching catalysts.]
[Besides, isn't the host trying to create some quality time for Princess Lola and Sosia? Then, if the host hatches the dragon eggs, won't that allow them to spend time together without interrupting their time together?]
After hearing what the system said, Gladys thought for a moment, corrected herself, and replied, "I think what you said makes sense. I'll hatch the dragon egg now."
"System, take out the black dragon's egg." said Gladys.
[Okay~ Host, please reach out and take it.]
Gladys stretched out her hand, and then, a huge black egg appeared out of thin air in the palm of her hand.
Laura saw it but said nothing, calmly accepting this wonderful scene.
Suosiya was stunned, "Little witch, this egg is..."
Gladys walked towards the fire with the egg in her arms and said, "Don't worry about me. I suddenly remembered that there are some things I haven't done yet. You guys can just chat."
Gladys turned her back to Lola and Sosia and began to roast the dragon eggs.
She thought that the vicious evil witch was doing other things, and Princess Lola and Sosia should seize this opportunity to have a good talk.
For example...the weak little Princess Lola can secretly tell the young killer that she is being abused by the terrible evil witch and urgently needs to be rescued.
The young white-haired killer therefore felt pity for the beautiful and kind little Princess Lola... From then on, countless developments could occur between the young killer and the beautiful little princess.
Gladys thought, but she found that there was no sound behind her.
[Host, Princess Lola, and Sosia remained silent.]
Gladys: "So what are they doing?"
The system was silent for a moment.
"Host, they are watching you."
Gladys: “…”
What's so good about the evil witch!
Gladys was so disappointed with her son that she was about to turn around to look at Lola and Sosia when the pitch-black dragon egg roasting on the fire suddenly showed cracks in the spider silk.
The system excitedly shouted in Gladys' mind: "Host! The dragon egg has hatched!"
Gladys focused her attention on the dragon egg.
The cracks in the spider web on the pitch-black dragon egg glowed red...
The cracks on the dragon egg crackled, and a gust of hot wind blew violently through the demon forest.
Gladys closed her eyes subconsciously.
[It's hatched! It's hatched!]
The system continued to shout excitedly.
The hot wind dissipated...
Gladys was able to open her eyes. Her vision was a little blurry in the heat. After a while of adjusting, she finally saw the hatchling from the dragon egg...
When they saw the appearance of the black dragon cub...the three people present were stunned.
The black dragon cub was covered with black scales all over its body, with only the back of its hands, neck and face exposed, as if it was wearing a full body suit of black scale armor.
The black dragon cub is very small, about the size of a human boy of five or six years old.
And the black dragon cub's face... is a little special.
Gladys: Fuck
The black dragon cub's face is exactly the same as hers!
System: "Wow, host, it's the white-haired one you like."
Yes... The special thing about the appearance of the black dragon cub is that besides the fact that its face is a gender-transformed version of Gladys's youth, another special thing about it is that its hair color is white.
Laura looked at the black dragon cub quietly.
The combination of White Hair and Gladys...
Still a child...feeling inexplicably unhappy.
Laura lowered her eyelashes. Deep down, she was always at peace. Nothing in the world could disturb her...
Like an extremely tolerant abyss, beautiful and dark, buried with endless silence.
However, at this moment...he felt a little more irritated.
[Oh, oh, host, just a reminder, the appearance of a black dragon cub can change.]
[The appearance of the Black Dragon cub will change according to the host's inner preferences, so the initial image is not permanent and will continue to change~]
Gladys listened to the system's words while looking at the black dragon cub.
To be honest, looking at a cub with a juvenile version of myself in the face...it feels pretty weird.
"Little witch, what's going on?" Sosia's surprised voice sounded.
Gladys came back to her senses, coughed, and pretended to be calm and said, "Let me introduce you. This is the dragon I raised."
Sosia: "Dragon?"
"That's right." Gladys nodded coldly.
Suosiya narrowed her eyes and praised, "I didn't expect that the little witch could actually tame a dragon...it's amazing."
"Of course, I'm an evil witch after all." Gladys said proudly.
But the next second, Gladys's smile froze.
For some reason, the newly hatched black dragon cub yawned several times and looked very sleepy... to be more precise, it looked very, very sleepy.
Then... the black dragon cub shook, and suddenly fell face down on the ground, lying motionless.
"What's wrong with it?" Sosia asked puzzledly.
Gladys's expression changed, and she immediately asked the system in her mind: "What's going on with this black dragon?"
System: "Let me check the information..."
Before the system finished checking the data and came back, Laura said, "It's just been born, and its magic power is insufficient, so it gets sleepy very easily."
"The cub needs to replenish a lot of magic power right now..." Lola looked at the black dragon cub lying on the ground and said calmly, "Sleeping on the ground will allow it to fully absorb the magic power of the demon forest."
Gladys: "I see."
"But...my servant, how do you know so much?" Gladys felt a little strange.
Laura smiled at Gladys, "Have you forgotten, Your Majesty, the Witch, that I have read many books in the Kingdom's library?"
At this time, the system just came back from looking up the information. After hearing that Princess Lola had already answered the question for it, the system praised her, saying, "Wow, host, the little princess is so knowledgeable."
"I think so too." Gladys replied to the system in her mind, with a hint of boasting in her tone that she was not aware of.
Sosia looked at the black dragon on the ground, then at Lola who had answered the question, his eyes thoughtful, and then he said, "If this child needs to replenish his magic power, how long will it take?"
"At least half a day, at most a whole day." Laura said.
Elsewhere, Gladys repeated the system's words, saying, "It'll take at least half a day."
Gladys and Laura said almost in unison.
The girl's clear voice and Lola's elegant voice overlapped, and Sosia's eyelashes trembled, and he couldn't help but look at Gladys and Lola.
To be honest, Sosia always felt that...the way the black-haired woman looked at the little witch was not like the way a servant looks at his master.
At this moment, Sosia suddenly realized something strange.
Sosia lowered her head, feeling as if she had discovered a big secret.
Suosiya tapped the blade at his waist with his fingertips, the rhythm of the tapping revealing hesitation... Could it be that the black-haired woman likes the little witch? Does the little witch know?
The black dragon needed to lie still to absorb magic power and could not leave the Demon Forest for the time being. After discussion, Gladys, Lola and Sosia decided to spend the night in the Demon Forest.
As night fell, Suosiya took out the camping tent from his backpack and set it up in the moonlight...
"System, look, isn't Sosia very reliable? Being in the Monster Forest with a white-haired boy like him really makes me feel safe," Gladys said. "And at this time of night, is something going to happen?"
The system paused and said, "...So? Host, what do you want to do?"
"I must see Sosia and the little princess being sweet together." Gladys said unwillingly.
Then, Gladys walked over to Laura. She raised her eyelashes and looked at Laura, then looked at the moon above her head and said with emotion, "The moonlight is so beautiful."
"I just watched Sosia setting up the tent and thought he was really different," said Gladys.
Laura raised her eyebrows and said indifferently, "What's the matter, Your Excellency the Witch?"
"Under such beautiful moonlight, don't you consider having something happen between you and Sosia?" Gladys said expectantly.
A plot like a man and a woman having to stay in the demon forest overnight has happened... then Gladys thinks she can expect the relationship between Princess Lola and Sosia to go further.
The CP she supports can still be saved!
Gladys said slowly in front of Laura: "Love is forbidden in the tower. As my slave, you cannot think about men, but..."
The moonlight fell quietly on Gladys's body. The girl's skin was delicate and attractive in the moonlight.
"But what?" Laura tilted her neck back, her thick eyelashes trembled, and her Adam's apple moved slightly under her clothes.
Gladys: "But this is an exceptional case. We are not in the tower."
"I, the evil witch, don't mind if you take advantage of this opportunity to have some fun outside," Gladys said confidently.
As soon as Gladys finished speaking, Laura pulled her.
Gladys subconsciously said: "If you don't want to, then don't want to. Why are you tripping me..."
The next moment, her voice stopped.
Laura put her arms around Gladys' waist.
He bent down and stared at Gladys with lowered eyelashes.
Gladys was slightly startled.
“Her” black hair is really beautiful. The jet-black hair is like drooping crow feathers, each strand is shining, which matches “her” pale and translucent skin, mysterious and gorgeous.
“Her” golden eyes are incredibly beautiful…The sun blending into the darkness possesses this kind of brilliance.
A wisp of black leaves quietly wrapped around Gladys' ankle, like a harmless cool night breeze.
"What are you addicted to?" He asked in a low voice.
