Chapter 35 Chapter 35 His face became even more lustful,...
"Miaomiao is so greedy..."
Although he was speaking words that sounded like he was complaining about humans not knowing how to be content, the big eyes of the Q-version little devil narrowed into slits, and his soft and cute voice drew out. Perhaps "acting like a spoiled child" would be a more appropriate description.
“You have to indulge me.”
It was not a question sentence half full of expectation and half full of request like in the past. Lin Miao, who was naturally good at sensing subtle emotions, vaguely guessed the devil's sudden drop in defense at this moment, seized this hard-earned "opportunity", and for the first time used a commanding tone to the lustful leader.
The girl's frivolous smile and unyielding tone of voice were fully presented to the original body hidden in the night through the vision of the clone.
The drumming in the heart was as dense as thunder, and the sea of soul was shaking more and more violently. There was a dull pain that was tearing through the nerve branches frame by frame to every layer of muscle, as if being cut repeatedly by a worn and rusty knife.
"My dear brother, we...are one and the same, aren't we?"
The devil muttered, sweat dripping from his forehead and temples, wetting the ends of his hair, flowing all the way across his tall nose and bright red lips, gathering at his jaw, hitting the ground, and being blown away by the wind.
His face became even more voluptuous, and the twisted excitement and satisfaction in his bloodshot eyes grew more intense.
"Even if destroying me also destroys yourself, you still want to try to regain your position and 'set things right'?"
"That's really..."
“—What a coincidence.”
Even more powerful magic power penetrated into the flower between the eyebrows and rushed to the sea of soul. While suppressing another soul, it was inevitable that the overflowing power would collide randomly.
How could Cecilia's soul sea, which had just been repaired a small part, withstand such an impact? Countless cracks continued to widen.
Blood-red, branch-like threads climbed up Errol's left face, illuminating it with the fiery glow of magma; the color in his pupils flickered, revealing deep pain.
"Who is 'chaotic' and who is 'righteous'?"
He whispered provocatively, almost tensing all his muscles, and used up all his remaining willpower to prevent that trace of consciousness from replicating his poor condition and allowing humans to see more clues.
The devil facing the girl still squinted his eyes, obeying his master's will and bowing to Lin Miao in a gentlemanly manner: "Of course."
Of course, the only option left for him towards his humans was indulgence.
"Miaomiao, if you don't want to go explore now, why don't you let me sleep with you later?"
The cute little creature with a small nose speaks innocently about the word "sleep". Who would think that such a small thing would have any bad thoughts?
Of course, Lin Miao agreed without any worries. How could he not seize the rare opportunity of kindness from the lustful leader? Moreover, in the new environment surrounded by jackals, the existence of one percent of demons was extremely reassuring.
——It’s just like the role of red envelopes on New Year’s Eve.
So after a long chat, before going to sleep, she happily held the Q version of the devil to her pillow, turned off the light, and leaned her head on the pillow. The quiet darkness immediately enveloped the small room. The human breathing could be clearly heard.
The little people created by magic have no life characteristics, no breathing, no heartbeat, no sweet floral and fruity fragrance, and cannot disturb the humans who close their eyes and rest;
However, the real Errol who was fighting with his "brother" on the top of the tower was breathing and had a heartbeat, and the stronger wind could not blow away the rich fragrance around him.
Even if brothers who share the same soul sea and the same five senses cannot take control of the body, they can easily sense the vulgar and seductive look of the main body when the little man mentioned the word "sleep".
He fantasized about peeping at the girl's peaceful sleeping face, smelling her unique fragrance, and touching her skin like a thief.
He even tried to secretly kiss her on the cheek.
And now, his brother is about to make it all a reality.
...lowly.
...Despicable!!!
On one side, the cute little devil watches humans sleeping peacefully, while on the other side, brothers fight silently for the body. Invisible smoke spreads, and in the end, they bear everything.
The pain that spread throughout his limbs and bones only subsided at dawn. The three-headed dog could no longer maintain its original cross-legged sitting posture. It relied on the railing on the top floor to barely support its body, and sweat gathered into a puddle at the edge of its clothes.
Errol seemed completely oblivious to the fact that his soul sea had returned to its original state before repair, and a provocative smile of a victor appeared on his lips.
The furious leader who was forcibly awakened was still seriously injured and lost to his brother with a slight disadvantage, and fell into a deep sleep again.
The winners were showing off their power, while the losers were forced to "go offline", but in a corner where neither of them paid any attention -
The third soul, which should have been in a deep dormant state, trembled slightly.

Lin Miao slept very soundly. When he woke up, the sun was already high in the sky and the Q-version man had disappeared.
If I hadn't known he was watching over me last night, it would have probably been another sleepless night filled with fear. Lin Miao sighed softly, washed up slowly, and opened the closet in her room.
The wardrobe was mostly filled with the most popular ladies' clothing and jewelry. They were expensive and exquisite, but also quite heavy, and the weight made Lin Miao speechless.
Although it is not conducive to flexible movement, it does make it convenient for her to do some small tricks.
She casually picked up a wrinkled piece of clothing to change into, then pushed open the door. As she walked through the empty corridor, she couldn't help but think of another doubt - for a manor of a first-class duke, were the number of maids in the main castle too sparse?
The Capet couple didn't even allow the maid that Yulia brought back from the village to enter the main castle to serve the young lady.
What’s even more interesting is that she has never seen Capet’s butler since she arrived at the manor.
Lin Miao didn't think that Lady Capet or the Duke would like to "do everything personally" based on their personalities. As for why they would rather abandon half of the estate than vacate the important position of "overall coordination", she could only think that "the secrets in this estate cannot afford to be leaked."
But this conflicts with Mrs. Capet's attitude of "no concealment".
Immersed in her thoughts, Lin Miao accidentally stepped on empty air when going down the stairs. She reacted quickly and grabbed the handrail.
The palms of my hands trembled from the cold.
She stood firm, frowning. It was spring and summer, and while the weather wasn't scorching hot yet, the wooden handrail shouldn't feel icy to the touch.
The cold and sticky feeling slid across the skin like a snake's tongue, and some bewitching voices echoed in the mind; the mandala on the side of the wrist became slightly hot, and the mind that had been disturbed for a moment returned.
Being tempted...
Red Lotus Pond?
She quickly found the source of the familiarity in her memories and continued walking downstairs, thinking about what Reese had said at that time.
Is it the remnant soul of the Demon Realm causing trouble?
But in this case, there is no reason why Errol cannot sense the breath of the hell creature.
Turning the stairs to the first floor, I saw a slender girl with black hair and black eyes standing at the corner with her back straight, like a sculpture, even her bunged hair seemed frozen.
"Good morning, second sister." Lin Miao blinked and greeted Daisy. "Are you waiting for me?"
"Yes." Daisy's head slowly turned to face her, her movements so stiff that it seemed as if a mechanical click would be made in the next second.
"My mother went out this morning for something, so my father and brother went with her, and asked me to have dinner with my sister."
She went out the day after she brought her daughter back home. The strong family love made her cry.
Lin Miao pursed her lips, her eyelashes drooping as she feigned a look of loss. "Sister, when Mother said 'something', was it just an excuse for not liking me and not wanting to have any contact with me?"
"Don't overthink it, sister," Daisy said immediately. "Of course Mother loves you, but today happens to be the day our family goes to the Illuminati Association for worship. As a member, Mother couldn't be absent, so she asked me to stay."
The Illuminati Association...worship...
Member?!
Lin Miao silently memorized these key information. When she heard the word "member", it was like a bolt from the blue. It exploded in her mind and made her dizzy.
Mrs. Cape is a member of the Illuminati Society?!
Although the majority of people in Gray City and even the Kingdom of Krez believe in the Bright Association, "believers" and "members" are completely different identities, and the gap between the two is huge.
The latter means being favored by the light faction, having greater or lesser magical powers, and being precious "awakened ones", whose number is a few thousandth of the former.
The information Errol gave her didn't mention the Capet couple being members of the Illuminati at all! Such important information couldn't be skipped in the prelude to the mini-game, right?
Lin Miao would never believe that this was just a simple omission by the devil.
Lin Miao's shock was written all over her face. Daisy explained woodenly, "Although my mother has divine favor, it's very weak and she hasn't awakened her magical powers. It just makes her look younger."
...Thanks, I'm more worried now :)
Lin Miao forced himself to suppress his fluctuating emotions, and tried to comfort himself that it was not without gain.
Daisy's telling her this at least assured her that as long as it did not involve crucial information, the Capet family would meet some of her 'insignificant' requests, including answering her questions, in order to appease or better control Yulia.
The Capet family seemed to attach more importance to the marriage with the Seventh Prince than she had imagined.
"The Bright Association?" Lin Miao tilted her head, adjusting her expression. She seemed distressed. "I grew up in the village and don't know much about this. Could you introduce me to something, sister?"
"Of course," Daisy replied quickly. "After you finish breakfast, I'll take you to the manor and tell you about the royal city."
…
She had only caught a fleeting glimpse of Capet Manor yesterday, but it was only when Daisy took her for a stroll that Lin Miao truly got a glimpse of the exquisite buildings and layout of the manor.
Compared to the castles of other noble families in the royal city, which are mostly brown or grayish white, the buildings in Capet Manor are painted with a thick layer of white paint on the granite itself. They are pure white like snow and look very familiar.
Domes and arches, towers and fan-shaped windows, although the architectural elements of the Holy Continent are similar to these, even the staggered orientation and arrangement of the main castle and other buildings are so similar to those of the Jingyu Temple - it is difficult for Lin Miao not to make reasonable associations about this.
Like, a very deliberate imitation.
"In addition to the royal family, nobles, and commoners, there are also the Light Association and the Dark Association in the royal city."
Daisy's tone was no different from the boring chanting of scriptures, but Lin Miao still caught the slight pause when she mentioned the "Dark Association".
"The Illuminati Association has over 600 divinely favored individuals. The president is His Excellency the Grand Mage Bolat, with three vice presidents, over ten messengers, and the rest are members. Only messengers and above can hear the angels' will, and only His Excellency the Grand Mage can actively communicate with the angels."
Lin Miao: "So do angels often issue decrees?"
Daisy was silent for a moment, then whispered, "My mother said it only happened once a hundred years ago."
