Alice looked at Xia Lingge, her crystal eyes filled with complex emotions, and she didn't know whether to agree or deny.
But Xia Lingge noticed her uneasiness, "Alice." She whispered, "I know you didn't mean it, and I won't blame you."
Alice's eyes lit up again, and she slowly stepped forward and stretched out her hand, wanting her to hold her like a coquettish cat.
Xia Lingge shook his head: "Alice, we can't do this anymore."
Alice raised her eyes helplessly.
Xia Lingge took Wen Dix's hand and said, "I already have a fiancée, and the wedding will be held in the near future, and you... I have always treated you like a sister. You should stop relying on me."
One of the classic sayings of scumbags - 'I treat you like my sister'.
no……
She remembered that the prince in the fairy tale had no such difficulty in choosing his concubine.
Looking at the somewhat lost Alice, Xia Lingge recalled the ending that turned into bubbles. He sighed softly and stepped forward to hug the little mermaid with her head lowered: "Don't be sad, feelings are far from yours." It’s so simple to think about it, if you miss home, just go and see the sea..."
next time,
Just live in the sea without any worries,
Stop being the little mermaid who sacrifices herself for love.
Alice's body trembled, and the eyes that looked at her seemed to be full of words and full of nostalgia.
Xia Lingge wiped away her tears and patted her head like a child.
"Your Highness Kirst."
Another attendant came to her: "The king and queen have prepared an engagement dinner for you and His Highness Windix tonight."
"okay, I get it."
Xia Lingge answered the waiter, turned back to Alice and said, "You have a good rest, and you don't want to attend tonight's banquet..."
Alice opened her mouth, but she stretched out her hand and just scratched Xia Lingge's robe.
Night falls soon.
The dazzling crystal chandelier hangs high in the hall, decorated with flowers, wrapped with silk and satin, and the gorgeous and ancient carpets cover the entire floor. Exquisite and small cakes are placed on the table one by one, exuding an alluring sweet aroma, and the collision of champagne and wine Make a 'ding--' sound.
Elegant music filled the entire palace, and gorgeously dressed nobles mingled with each other, or danced in the round hall.
"Everyone."
The king's rich voice attracted the attention of everyone present, the music stopped playing, and everyone looked at the supreme king.
The king cleared his voice: "Tonight is the engagement banquet of my son Kirst and Princess Windix. A hundred years from now, they will work together to govern this country, and their happiness will be witnessed by you tonight." !”
"Congratulations to His Highness Kirst!"
"Congratulations, Your Highness Windix!"
Amid people's cheers, the handsome young man slowly walked down the stairs holding the hand of the beautiful girl.
The straight military uniform is paired with an exquisite sword. She wears white gloves and bright leather boots. The lion totem on her chest, which symbolizes her identity, complements her cold eyes with a sharp look.
The girl she was holding was wearing a gorgeous sapphire blue dress, with a gorgeous purple amethyst corolla fixing her long black hair, pale skin, and elegant manners.
It's a beautiful picture of two people walking together.
The king looked at the absent-minded nobles below with satisfaction and some pride. He accepted the worship from Xia Lingge and Wen Dix, and then gave up his position to Xia Lingge to deliver a speech.
"Thank you all for coming to the engagement banquet. I sincerely hope to receive your blessings." Xia Lingge said concisely and clearly.
There was another burst of cheers from the crowd.
The beautiful music sounded again, and they found each other's favorite dance partners to dance on the stage.
However, no one noticed that outside the hall, in a dark corner, there was a figure clinging to the marble wall, leaving a mark.
'coax--'!
The whole castle suddenly started to sway, and the crystal lamp above the head suddenly dimmed.
"what happened……?"
"Why was there a sudden power outage? Could it be an earthquake..."
The guards hurriedly found candles to bring a ray of light to the dark hall.
"Everyone."
Xia Lingge comforted Wendix, who held her hand tightly, and then said loudly to the others: "Don't panic, maybe it's the huge noise caused by the waves outside the city, I will send someone to send everyone home safely, don't worry. "
Her words were like a tranquilizer, making the originally agitated people quiet down.
Windix's delicate voice was filled with admiration: "Your Highness Kirst..."
Xia Lingge didn't hear Wen Dix's sweet and delicate voice. All her attention was now focused on the loud sound. Did the copy begin to add difficulties to her...
She suddenly thought of Alice.
She broke away from Ventix's hand: "Just wait for me here and don't run around."
Xia Lingge ran out of the hall in a few steps and ran towards Alice's room. The dark room was empty, and she could only hear the sound of the sea lapping against the rocks outside the window.
Alice is not here.
Xia Lingge summoned the ruby dagger that was his natural skill and held it in his hand. For a moment, he felt that the atmosphere around him became much fresher.
It seems that after absorbing the red crystal, her skills have increased a lot.
"Your Highness! Your Highness Kirst..."
The guard who ran not far away paused in vain and took a step back in fear.
Xia Lingge took back the dagger and turned around: "What's wrong?"
The waiter's breath suddenly stopped and he exhaled: "King and Queen... Go and have a look!"
King and queen?
Xia Lingge followed the waiter to the master bedroom on the fourth floor. There was no call from the castle yet, and all the servants and maids were walking back and forth with candles. The dim yellow light as big as a bean made their frightened faces even more terrifying.
Xia Lingge passed by them and looked straight at the king and queen lying on the bed. Thick and bright red blood dripped down, and the hole in their heart was filled with blood. Their eyes widened and their mouths opened. , only had time to panic but could not call for help.
"died……?"
Xia Lingge was puzzled. Could it be that the king and queen were gamers? But the system didn't prompt the player to die, but what did the two NPCs have that deserved to be attacked by monsters?
"His Royal Highness Kirst..."
The waiter behind her spoke hesitantly, as if she didn't know how to comfort her dead 'parents'.
Xia Lingge said softly: "I will bury them properly."
but why?
wrong……
etc!
If monsters can attack NPCs, then Alice...
"Go find Miss Alice quickly!"
"yes!"
Xia Lingge took a candle and quickly patrolled the castle. She finally walked out of the palace and stepped into the garden. Those warm roses now wrapped around the branches and became dark and deep. They bloomed quietly like a soul wandering late at night.
Her eyes passed over the roses and fell to the fountain beside the flowers. There was a petite figure trembling backwards.
