It is now the fifteenth year since the birth of Annele Oxor. She works as a novice nun in the church branch in the Summer City of Oxor.
Because neither she nor her sister Freya Oxor had a surname, the name of the place where she worked was directly added to her name "Oxor".
Due to her perverse and withdrawn personality, she did not want to get close to anyone except her sister and Father Nicola, so she was judged unfit for the position of a nun since she was a child. Therefore, even though her sister Freya at the same time had already become a nun 5 years ago. , she is still just a trainee nun.
In addition to her own requirements, she had many other considerations when joining the Windland Branch.
It boils down to only two points. One is that she can be used as a scapegoat to protect Sister Freya who has a promising future when the demons find some groundless accusations to stir up trouble. The other is that no one can foresee the possibility of opening the Demon King Continent branch for the first time. No result, and she is a convenient stepping stone that can be discarded at any time.
To summarize simply.
She is just an abandoned child.
But Annele herself, and even her sister Freya, didn't know this. She didn't know that this trip was just about abandoning everything in herself to create some unexpected value for someone's desires.
She only knew that she was working hard for the beautiful words on paper about the coexistence of demons and humans, and she was only acting for this reason.
The same goes for Annie.
However, the only difference is that she is not doing it for the so-called overall interests of mankind. She just simply thinks that if this can make her sister happy, then all these problems can be solved by me.
Today, she followed her sister Freya's arrangement and came to the Lord of the Wind's Mansion for a three-day exchange student life.
She secretly made up her mind that she would definitely make the day come when demons and humans can coexist peacefully.
but,
Anier, who was making such a simple plan, never knew that it was precisely because of this that she was slowly falling into darkness step by step.
Everything started when they arrived at the door of the lord's mansion.
It was a girl who was as delicate as a work of art. She stood eagerly at the end of the torii's long staircase, as if she was waiting for someone's return.
The slender and thin body seems to be hiding in a loose black dress. Even if it is just touched lightly, it will immediately melt due to the excess temperature, making people stop breathing unconsciously.
But all these illusions were shattered by the extremely eye-catching metal bat the girl was holding in front of her.
So..what is that?
Anner's face seemed to be a mixture of surprise and confusion, gradually becoming ambiguous. She wanted to get the answer from Li Mo, but when she looked at Li Mo, she realized that Li Mo's expression was even more exaggerated than hers.
There were wrinkles between his eyebrows, cold sweat on his forehead, and his teeth were still chattering. But the next second he started to giggle like crazy again, and then his crimson pupils slowly lost their color and turned into a look of life. Loveless look.
"Hey, stinking demon clan, what's wrong with you!? Cheer up!"
Anner pushed Li Mo cautiously with trembling hands, but Li Mo stood there stupidly without making any response.
Perhaps because Annie and the others were standing still, the girl made a smacking sound that could be heard even from a distance and walked towards them.
Kadang——Kadang——
The bats dragged on the ground made a permeating sound on every step of the long ladder. Every time the sound sounded, the heart would stop suddenly. Finally, after experiencing countless sufferings, it finally stopped at the end of the ladder. before.
"where have you been?"
This was a lifeless question, as cold as the girl's eyes looking up at Li Mo.
Li Mo's Adam's apple moved but he could not swallow the unspeakable bitterness. He understood what the expression on Lord Demon King's face meant, so he must not say the wrong thing here. He tried to make his mind spin faster.
Then,
"snort."
First he smiled softly, then raised his head and pushed his bangs back with his hands, turned his face 45 degrees, pointed at the Demon King in a dignified manner and said:
"In your heart."
state--
The bat hit his head, and Li Mo's face sank into the ground, and it ended without even a scream.
"What stupid thing are you doing, Xiulimo."
The Demon King stepped on Li Mo's head and crushed him before sitting on his back.
It was only when the long silver hair fell on Li Mo's neck that he realized that the Demon King's hair had grown much longer unknowingly. This was telling the story of the years the two of them had spent unknowingly.
Li Mo raised his head from the rubble, and tried his best to turn his stiff neck to the side and meet the Demon King's gaze.
"Go to work, go to work, it was too early to set off so I didn't call you."
"I'm hungry."
The Demon King puffed up her cheeks and turned her face to the side. There was a lot of complaining in her childish voice, and her bloodshot eyes showed that she cried because she couldn't find someone after waking up in this strange mansion.
"Ah, I wanted to cook when I left this morning, but something unexpected happened and I forgot about it."
"Fool."
The bat was casually thrown to the ground and made a sound. His limp body shook and he pressed down hard on Li Mo.
"But wouldn't it be better if you go ask your sister? Haven't you been complaining that you don't want to eat the food I cook?"
"ah!?"
The ferocious sound was like the howls of ghosts coming from hell. Lord Demon King turned over and grabbed Li Mo's collar, but in the next second she was in an extremely bad mood and let go of her hand, then took Li Mo's arm and pulled him away. He was helped up.
"A-Li, A-Li, would you please stand here."
"It's okay, it's okay..."
After running down the long ladder on the mountain path for three steps, she pointed to her feet and said, then she watched Li Mo, who was half pushing, walking up to her, and then trotted back.
at last,
"ah?!"
The ferocious sound was like the howls of ghosts and gods coming from hell. The Lord Demon King grabbed Li Mo's collar and lifted him above his head. His small body could not tell where this strange power came from.
"Who's going to ask those stinky foxes!? Go to hell, stinky Limo!"
"Ahhhh! I was wrong, please forgive me! Help, help, help!!!"
Li Mo's miserable screams echoed throughout the sacred mountain.
"Ah wow wow wow wow!"
Anier witnessed everything at a loss. She tightly covered her trembling mouth, but she couldn't control her legs that were also trembling.
Although she is such a petite girl, she is so fierce, even her own companions can be ruthless without hesitation.
Demons and all that are really scary! Sister, when can I go home?
Anne'er just thought about it and slowly lost consciousness in a trance.
...
When she woke up again, she was already sitting in the guest room of the lord's mansion.
Sitting next to him were Li Mo and the vicious girl with silver hair.
But what happened in the middle, and how she got here, she couldn't recall, but Anier herself didn't want to recall it, after all, some things would definitely leave a lifelong shadow when recalled.
"Please use."
The gentle and soft voice coming from in front of her completely pulled Anner out of her trance. She raised her head and saw that the girl with fox ears was bringing various dishes from the dining cart to the small table in front of her. .
This is the girl who came to the church with Li Mo. On the way here, she said that she still had work to do at the Lord's Hall, so she left first. Is she back now?
"Ah, thank you..."
An'er wanted to express her gratitude, but the fox-eared girl didn't even think about paying attention to her. She turned around and pushed the dining cart to Li Mo next to her to serve the food.
What are you doing, this guy! It's rare for someone to take the initiative to talk to you!
But, was this how this person felt before?
In Anner's impression, this fox-eared girl had always been smiling, giving people a feeling of being easy to get close to, but now there was no expression on her face, just like a doll without emotions.
Are you in a bad mood? Or is she just a doll? It feels so terrible!
An'er unconsciously turned her gaze to Li Mo, because he should be the most normal among these demons...
This guy is not normal either!
There was a bowl in front of this guy that could fit his head in, and after the rice was squeezed tightly, half a bowl of rice popped out.
Li Mo, who was sitting at the table with a dark face, seemed to feel Anner's gaze and whispered in a warning voice:
"Don't look at anything, don't ask anything."
His eyes were not directed towards An'er, but An'er knew that this must be what he said to himself.
She quickly turned her eyes away, sat up straight, and picked up the bowl obediently like a child who had just been taught a lesson.
Anner had imagined the food of demons before. She always thought it should be the kind of suspicious raw meat with purple bubbles on the surface and soaked in unknown liquid.
But now they all look very ordinary.
No, ordinary does not mean ordinary. The dishes are quite luxurious and sumptuous. These foods are usually not available in churches that believe in simplicity and frugality.
Anner gently picked up a small piece of grilled salmon and put it in her mouth after some hesitation.
After all, these things must be considered suspicious items before they have tasted them. What if this is just a method used by the demons to confuse people.
but,
It’s so delicious!
The salmon meat, grilled to perfection, melted as soon as it was put into the mouth. The salty taste, which was not heavy but not light, slowly spread between the lips and teeth. This was the first time for Annie to eat such delicious food.
Although I am very reluctant, this may be better than my sister's craftsmanship.
Why can the demons make such delicious food!
Not willing to give in!
"Remain dignified, neither humble nor arrogant."
Anile's mind suddenly rang with what Li Mo had said to her.
Yes, Li Mo must have wanted to tell himself that he must not praise honestly here, he must maintain the majesty of human beings.
She slapped the table hard and said majestically:
"These dishes are so delicious!"
Then......
"Well, that's too much!"
Tears appeared in the corners of Li Mo's eyes.
"Wow, ah, ah, this is something people worked so hard to make. It's really too much!"
Li Mo covered his face and cried.
"Be good, be good, stop crying."
Lord Demon King held Li Mo in his arms and gently stroked his head, then turned to Anner and said viciously:
"Asshole, why did you make him cry?"
"sorry!!!"
Finally, Anile knelt down and apologized.
