Skeleton King

Chapter 227 Noel Green: Juggernaut!

There are places where spring is boundless, and there are streets where the wind and rain are desolate.

Pansy Palace.The maid tried her best to help Angelica close the window outside the bedroom. At this moment, there was a strong wind outside the window, and from time to time, cold raindrops floated into the bedroom along the open window, bringing a slight chill.

The weather in early autumn is extremely changeable, it is still sunny in the afternoon, and there is a storm in the evening.The maid quickly closed the window, and regardless of the fact that her clothes were mostly wet, she hurried to Angelica and poured her a cup of hot black tea.

The maid poured the black tea and put it in Angelica's hand, then carefully observed Angelika's expression.It may be her illusion, the maid felt that Angelica became much quieter after returning from the banquet.

Although Angelica usually didn't speak very much and was doing her own things more silently, she always took good care of them, even she knew that the maids around her were Prince Nishimoto's and they were her eyeliners.

The maid didn't understand. It was a pleasure to attend the banquet, which meant that Angelica was about to become the mistress of the palace.Angelica should be very happy.

Thinking of becoming the princess's personal maid, even her mood jumped three points more than usual.

The maid did not dare to stay by Angelica's side for long.Although Angelica's background made the maids of the Pansy Palace disapproving, the longer she stayed by Angelica's side, the more she felt that Angelica was unfathomable, and she no longer dared to underestimate her.Therefore, the maid is still full of curiosity about Angelica's original owner, Viscount Neumann's Master Ace. How could the noble young master who educated Angelica be so unknown in the capital of the Pansy Empire?

The maid turned to the bedroom, made the bed, and quietly retreated.

Angelica was indeed not in a very good mood today. Whether it was the potion that Prince Xiben asked the scholar Myron to send over, or the fact that Duke Green drank the bottle of potion on her behalf, she was a little outraged.Except when Angela and her were young and they were sent to Master Ace by Mrs. Caroline, she hadn't felt this powerless for a long time.

But she still can only accept everything silently and obediently.

Angelica understood better than Prince Nishimoto thought, only when Master Ace survived could she and Angelica be given true freedom.She watched Master Ace grow up and knew what kind of person he was.As for Prince Xiben, you can tell from the potion he sent before his wedding...

Angelica thought, if not for other reasons, she would not have chosen Prince Nishimoto.

It's not love, it's choice.Some people's marriage is love, some people's marriage is transaction, and some people's marriage is survival.The marriage that Angelica defines for herself is the last kind.

And the person who was originally picked by her...

"You shouldn't have come." The bedroom was empty, and the maids knew that Angelica didn't like being served at night, so they had already retreated.Angelica sat behind the small round table, looked at the window that had just been closed, and said.

The hitch on the window had fallen off at some point.Without anyone moving, the window opened slowly.Angelica didn't leave the small round table, and was still sitting there. She calmly looked in the direction of the window, and saw the wind and rain pouring in along the window, and a black shadow appeared outside the window.That shadow was still far away from Angelica, and she couldn't see the appearance of the comer with her eyesight, but the sword shadow behind the man allowed Angelika to confirm his identity.

The night's rapid travel, coupled with the heavy rain near the imperial capital, made Art look extremely embarrassed.His brown hair was wetly stuck to his forehead, and his clothes looked like they had just been fished out of the water.Originally, his strength would no longer be affected by foreign objects, but Alter's current state was completely wrong.

His eyes were red, even in the middle of the night.

Because of this, Angelica discovered him before he entered Angelika's bedroom.Angelica was only 3% sure before, and she was just asking tentatively. Seeing that Art really appeared, her unhappiness reached its peak today.

"Angela said that tomorrow you will marry Siben Coother." Alter's voice drifted into the bedroom along with the wind and rain.

Angelica said lightly: "Yes." The matter has come to this point, and there is no need for her to hide Art.

It’s just that Angelika has handled a lot of the affairs in the city that never sleeps. Although she doesn’t know the arrangement of Ace and General Arnold on Arter, it’s not a good thing for the head of the Nightless Knights to leave suddenly at this time.After hearing what Art said, Angelica really didn't know whether to blame him or Angela for talking too much.

A sound similar to the wailing of a small animal came from Art's throat.

Only then did Angelica realize that something was wrong with Art.It's a bit like the appearance of a swordsman going crazy when he advanced.

Although Angela has little strength, this judgment is not wrong.Under General Arnold's overtime training, Alt has reached the bottleneck of the Holy Order, and he may break through at any time.

Ninth-level swordsmen and holy ranks, this is a natural barrier.When they are about to break through, the ninth-level swordsman will be less and less able to control their fighting spirit, and many people will change their personalities during this period, and even do irreversible things.

It's just that Alter's usual performance is too calm and too reliable.Even General Arnold was deceived by him, and he never thought that he would be defeated by Xinxing.In fact, it is not difficult to understand. Ace is not here, and General Arnold has to take care of the Evernight City. The burden of the Night City is all on Alter.

The string in Alt's mind was broken before, and he could leave this state only if the city that never sleeps escaped, or he broke through the holy ranks in the war.However, at such a critical time, Angela's words became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The person standing in front of Angelica is no longer just Alte, but a level nine swordsman who has gone mad.

The whimpering and angry howling of the little beast echoed in the bedroom.It may also be that Alter still retains a little sanity, his voice has not been spread, and it is only stayed here.

Alter's voice was hoarse, and he snapped: "Did Siben Koauser force you?!"

Angelica was really worried that Arte would go to Prince Xiben for a duel with his epee, not to mention that Arte is only a ninth-level swordsman now, and Prince Xiben is already a holy rank.Art quietly appeared in the Pansy Palace on the eve of Prince Xiben and Angelica's wedding. When he came to see Angelica, he would definitely touch Prince Xiben's inverse scales.At that time, not only Art, but even the Twin Cities will not be able to please.

Emotionally and rationally, Angelica had to tell Alter, "No one forced me. I wanted to marry him, so I married him."

The sound of the wind, the sound of the rain, the sound of words.

Miraculously, Arter’s eyes regained their clarity. It may be Angelica’s calm tone that made Arter believe that no one forced her, or it may be this familiar voice that brought his memory back to the long past. .However, Alt still couldn't accept these facts, "Why? Because Siben Keauser is a sword master, or because he came from the Keoser family?"

Men always superficially attribute a woman's choice of a partner to strength, wealth, and power, although in many cases this statement cannot be miscalculated.

Angelica said frankly: "Yes."

Since Alter came here from the city that never sleeps, she always wanted to give him an answer.

Art said loudly, "I don't believe it!"

In the long silence between Angelica and Arter, Arter said again: "Then how do you explain what happened at Bad Soden Manor?" The purification potion that the young master used was brought to him, how to explain those things?

"For so many years, how do you explain the letters you sent every month?" Those letters showed concern for him, advised him on his interpersonal relationship in the Knights of Westphalia Province, and gave him advice when he returned to Bad Soden Manor. His family visits the grave, how to explain those things?

At the end, there was sadness in Art's voice.

Angelica is just an ordinary person, but Art is a half-enchanted ninth-level swordsman.According to reason, Angelica should appease him at this time and let him leave the Pansy Palace, but Angelica did not do so, except that she knew it would be useless, and also because she should give Art an explanation.

At this moment, Angelica's voice was like a sharp blade, more ruthless than this cold wind and rain, "I take care of you only because the young master needs a strong and loyal swordsman; I also send you a letter to control your movements, Help the young master win you over."

That is a knife that can be directly inserted into the heart.

Arte said again: "Then if the young master needs it, will you marry me in order to win me over?" The sadness in the words was like weeping blood.

Angelica didn't speak.The answer is already clear.Isn't that what Angelica has been doing for a long time?

Like Mrs. Caroline, her beauty is her weapon, which makes her be loved by everyone, but it also hurts herself, making her proud, vain, and extravagant, and finally makes her play with fire, and lose forever. The right to pursue love; Angelica used her wisdom to invade her target silently. She helped Ace a lot, but indirectly pushed the city that never sleeps into desperation.

Alt said: "It seems that you have found someone more useful." In addition to jealousy, he also had deep pity for Siben Koauser, and he murmured: "I don't know that Siben Koauser can How long do you use it?"

Art is also Ace's confidant and knows a lot about Ace. Angelica has been with Ace longer and is closer.If Angelika had the slightest affection for Prince Nishimoto, she couldn't watch Prince Nishimoto let Ace go, watched Prince Nishimoto walk into the abyss step by step, and even acted as a pusher for this.

Prince Xiben's affectionate, even Art can't deny it.

Art looked at Angelica and said firmly, "You are such a hard-hearted person."

Until this time, Angelica had a standard smile on her lips, which was more in line with etiquette than the smile deliberately shown by the maids of the Pansy Palace.Art felt that his behavior in coming to the Pansy Palace was extremely stupid, and that he who had sincerely yearned for a future with Angelica was even more stupid.

Angelica was not angry at Arter's words, she just said: "Arte, you shouldn't have come, the city that never sleeps is just when you are needed."

The blood in Art's eyes had completely dissipated. Although his heart was still throbbing, he believed that with the passage of time, the pain would slowly subside until an ugly scar was left.

Art was no longer willing to show his wounds in front of Angelica.He calmly said: "Angelica Feiffer, you don't have to worry that I will betray the young master because of this. I initially pledged my allegiance to the young master because he is a person worthy of my allegiance. On the contrary, I should thank you and put the most suitable death in this world bring the king of the world before me."

"We owe nothing to anyone." When Arter's words were still echoing in Angelica's ears, his people had disappeared.

Angelica knew that he had left the Pansy Palace.

The night was very deep, but Angelica was not sleepy. She just sat there with the cold cup of black tea in her hand, watching the pouring rain turn into needle-like drizzle, and watching the sky gradually clear up , the sky turned to day, it was a cloudless day.

But this is very bad weather, and Prince Xiben will pay a high price to let Jacob change the weather.

They are already the strongest in this plane, calling the wind and rain, and omnipotent, not to mention the civilians who are like ants to them.

Very early very early, the Pansy Palace became lively, there were many things about the wedding, and everyone was very busy.The warm morning sun shone on Angelika's tired face, and she rarely let her thoughts drift away. She thought that she still hadn't completely told Arte the truth.

It's just that none of them are her favorite people.

So she is invincible.

……

Duke Green Mansion, cellar.

When Nuo Ou woke up, he was still a little dizzy, and for a moment, he didn't even know where he was.It wasn't until he saw the pile of books in the corner that he vaguely remembered what happened last night.

For a few seconds, Nou seemed to have turned into a skeleton soldier, completely out of breath and heartbeat, because he remembered what happened last night and felt the heat from behind.

Logically speaking, level nine swordsmen would hardly ever enter deep sleep again.All the time, they will be vigilant.So Nuo Ou didn't fall asleep last night, but passed out.

Thinking of a certain fact, Nuo Ou doesn't want to face someone who caused this fact yet.

Nou closed his eyes forcefully, trying to get this memory out of his mind.Nou thought he had done it, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes focused on the magic notes in front of him.

Then he remembered that he pushed Ace to the Magic Notes to see if there were any other wounds on his body. Ace indulged him at first, but later, Ace couldn't bear it anymore, so he turned over and pressed him under.

right on top of that...

There was a layer of hay under the pile of books, and then he couldn't stand it and wanted to run away, but Ace grabbed his ankle and pulled him back without making any move, saying, "Nou, I really like you super swordsman."

"Nuoou, I really like how hard you usually practice."

"Nuoou, Hailan's grudge will help the endurance of the battle. I like the Green family so much."

……

Ace said a lot of likes, but none of them were what Nuo Ou wanted to hear.Nuo Ou never knew that Ace had so many words, except for calling him by his name, Nuo Ou didn't want to hear Ace say anything else, even if he praised him as "great".

He didn't want to hear it at all!

Noou looked at the magic notes, dry grass, and even the floor in the secret room, and he wanted to destroy them.At this moment, Nuo Ou felt that even Ace would not want to leave this place!

And what did he do? !

Even if he drank that unknown magic potion, he shouldn't come to Ace like crazy. If this is still a good thing, pushing Ace directly in the secret room is definitely the most luscious of him. Behavior.

"What are you thinking?" Nuo Ou felt the arms around his waist tighten, and his hot breath sprayed to the back of his neck.

How could he forget that Ace is also a level nine swordsman, how could Ace not know that he was awake.Nou would never admit this, "I accidentally drank that bottle of potion yesterday, and my head still hurts." Last night, Ace had already "pressed" what happened.

Ace reached out his hand to Noou's temple, and rubbed it just right.Nuo Ou suddenly stretched out his hand, held the hand that was massaging him, and said, "You shouldn't do this when you wake up in the morning."

"That should be done..." Ace was a little puzzled.

But before he could finish his words, Nuoou responded to him with actions.Nou turned around and exchanged a long kiss with him.

When Ace opened his eyes again, a smile appeared on both of their faces unabashedly.Ace looked at Nou amusedly, "Don't you think about it anymore?"

"What am I thinking?" Nuo Ou refused to admit the facts just now.Since childhood, except for the martial arts that Ace voluntarily gave up, in other aspects, they have refused to admit defeat.Now is no exception.

Nuoou stood up generously, picked up the clothes scattered on the ground, and put them on.

What are you afraid of, it's not like you haven't seen it before.

Ace looked at Nou's slender body with great interest, watching him turn back into the stern Duke Green, and recalled from time to time that Nou trembled imperceptibly under his gaze, subconsciously avoiding his look.

Ace said to himself: "After reading the magic notes about the star map, I have to ask Bill to send a new one."

In the next second, everything in the secret room disappeared.

Noou put his hand down, he just used the space ring to put these things away.He deliberately ignored Ace's teasing gaze, and said breathlessly: "It's fine for the others, Bill is not welcome at Duke Green's Mansion."

After Nou finished speaking, he was about to leave.Ace sat on the ground and grabbed his hand, "Did you forget to thank me?"

Nou looked at Ace suspiciously, and then smacked Ace's lips under Ace's astonished gaze.

Ace: ...

Ace frantically said: "Idiot, didn't I say this, didn't you find out?! You broke through the Juggernaut! Just after you squeezed me dry!"
