197 I'm hungry

There was a silence in the entire hall. Although the old mage was a demon, it was almost impossible to escape under the attack of two powerful humans. The housekeeper looked at the old mage in disbelief. Since the young lady came to this castle, they have worked together. After so many years of time, they are still very knowledgeable.

The old master is a gentle and kind person, and rarely gets angry with others. Although she occasionally teaches the stinky men who don’t open their eyes and provoke Miss Emma, ​​she has never really taken a heavy blow. At most, she will cause minor injuries to the other party and retreat.

Personally, the housekeeper felt that the old mage was a good person, a gentle and good person, but he never thought that this gentle and good person would be a demon.

"Why?" The butler still had a disbelief expression on his face: "Why do you treat the lady like this? Among all of us, isn't you the one who cherishes the lady the most?"

The old mage showed a look of pain on his face, but it disappeared quickly, so fast that no one noticed it. She laughed and said, "Why? Because I am a demon, because she is the chess piece designated by our master, but I didn't expect that my disguise over the years would be discovered so quickly."

Hearing this answer, the housekeeper closed his eyes and couldn't help feeling sad for the lady. The descendants of the royal family have always grown up in an intrigue environment. After Miss Emma came here, she spent time with the old master day and night. The two were almost like mother and daughter. If she knew about this, it would be so painful that the housekeeper could imagine it.

The housekeeper really hoped that this was just a nightmare, but his clenched fist and his nails pierced into the flesh of his palm. The pain told him that this was just a luxury.

"What are you going to deal with her?" The butler looked at Liang Lidong with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

Liang Lidong could guess the butler's thoughts, but he thought for a while and said, "I should have been dealt with by Emma. I will be responsible for capturing her later. For the specific matter, I will wait for Emma to come back."

"Then let her go!"

A clear girl's voice came from Liang Lidong's back. Liang Lidong turned sideways and turned his head to see Emma standing at the main entrance. The girl's weak and petite figure was illuminated by the moonlight, and her face was hidden in the shadows that could not be shone on the moonlight, and her expression could not be seen clearly, but everyone could feel great pain from her voice.

Liang Lidong understood and slowly stepped back a few steps. Seeing this, Kyle also put away his weapons.

"Miss..." The housekeeper Joseph called out softly when he saw Emma. Then he couldn't bear to look at it again, and turned his head away. The old man's eyes were slightly red. He empathized with his lady's emotions at this time.

The old mage had a little surprise on his face, and then felt guilty: "Miss...me!"

She had a lot to say, but she felt that she had nothing to say. Regret, guilt, and heartache. Three emotions were like three poisonous snakes. She kept tearing the soft feelings in her heart. She stared at Emma affectionately for a while, then covered her wound and slowly walked towards the door.

When she walked to Emma's side, she stopped and turned her head to look at Emma's face. After staring at her for a while, she slowly left.

Emma turned around and looked at the old mage's back as she left, her body trembled slightly from time to time. The moonlight was still bright and cold, but it was no longer warm and charming.

The old housekeeper wanted to step forward to comfort him. Liang Lidong pressed his shoulder and shook his head at him. Then the three big men went upstairs and left Emma alone in the main hall.

The old mage's figure completely disappeared, and the girl squatted down and buried her head deeply in her arms.

Alice is a half-elf and has a sharper intuition about other people's emotions. She had already left the castle far away, summoned a unicorn, rode up, and traveled around the castle.

At this time, no one is willing to disturb the sad girl. Sometimes, the comfort of others is better than letting the injured person hide from an angle and lick the wound.

Emma didn't know when she would go back to bed to sleep. When she woke up, it was already noon. If the old mage had already come to call her up, she hoped that what happened last night would be a nightmare, but the reality after waking up ruthlessly told her that it was just a fantasy.

She touched her eyes that were swollen like a walnut, and then used a therapy technique. Under the influence of magic, although the redness and swelling of her eyes disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, she still left some red marks. She got up, walked to the dressing table, and covered it with light makeup.

Emma is naturally beautiful and she doesn't need any makeup to be beautiful enough. This is the third time she has painted her eyebrows since she learned to put on makeup.

After the pretty face in the mirror was completely flawless, Emma put on her clothes and went downstairs, and then she found that there was only the butler in the main hall.

The rich lunch was placed on the table, and the butler secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her expression as usual.

Emma sat down at the dining table, picked up the knife and fork, and asked casually: "Where are they all full?"

"The Lord Beta and the others have left." The butler's face was a little happy and annoying, and it was a great thing for him: "They left behind and said, let Princess, rest for a while."

Emma's knife was strung with a piece of fat tender meat. She was about to bring this delicacy into her mouth. When she heard this, she immediately had a meal. Then she slowly raised her head: "What, are you leaving? When?"

Seeing Emma's expression, the housekeeper was shocked and secretly shouted something was wrong, but he could only bite the bullet and answer, "In the morning."

"Then have they left me anything?" Emma stood up suddenly, grabbed the butler's sleeve with one hand, and asked with a bent eye: "Or, have they told you where to wait for me to pass?"

The butler's body shook for a moment, then he closed his eyes and shook his head with difficulty.

This is how! Emma murmured softly, then sat back on the chair weakly. She held her knife and fork and sat quietly, her eyes never moved for a long time. She kept looking at a plate of meat and delicacies in front of her, as if she was like a puppet with a soul-lost loss.

Emma sat in a quiet position for a long time, keeping motionless. The housekeeper looked at her heartache and couldn't help saying, "Miss, please eat something."

Emma still didn't move.

Joseph couldn't help but shout: "Miss!"

Emma's body shook for a moment, as if she was awakened from a dream. Her face was still so beautiful, but at this time there were more invisible things covering her, and she could no longer see clearly, or she seemed less bright.

"Oh, Joseph, is there anything?" Emma smiled, but no matter how outsiders looked, they felt that she was just laughing: "Oh, you said you were eating... I suddenly felt that I had no appetite, you should take all these things away."

Joseph couldn't help but say, "Miss, but if you don't eat something, you can't hold on."

"I'm a professional, not that spoiled."

Emma was still smiling, and she stood up and continued, "Joseph, I suddenly became a little sleepy. I'll go to sleep for a while. If nothing happens, don't make people bother me."

After saying that, Emma went upstairs and went back to her room.

Joseph stood in the main hall, looking at the direction of the stairs, with a look of regret in his eyes.

Then he sighed, left the main hall, and asked the servant to buy some of the lady's favorite food. Then he waited in the main hall until late at night, but he did not see Emma come out of the house.

When he was about to let the maid go in and see what happened, he saw a maid running down from above in a panic and shouting, "Butler, it's not good. The lady is sick and her body is very hot."

When Joseph heard this, his first reaction was that it was "impossible"!

Although the caster's physique is slightly weaker than that of the physics profession, it is much stronger than that of normal people. The most important thing is that Emma herself is a saint and is good at treating others. Even if there are some minor illnesses and pains, it can be eliminated with just one magic, so how can she get sick?

He was a little angry and said, "Don't talk nonsense."

The maid hurriedly explained: "I didn't lie to you. The lady is full of fever and can't wake up no matter how hard she is, and she looks very painful."

Joseph frowned, and he hurriedly went upstairs and pushed open the door. Then he saw Emma sleeping in the quilt, gasping for breath, with an abnormal blush on his face. He pressed his hand on Emma's head and felt that his hands were burning.

This is indeed abnormal. Joseph hurriedly shouted to the outside: "Send someone to go to the Storm Temple to invite a priest back immediately, hurry up!"

Not long after, the male servant came over with a middle-aged female priest. She entered the room and drove all the others out. Almost everyone in the castle was waiting in the main hall, crowded like a vegetable market.

Everyone looked worried.

Not long after, the middle-aged female priest came out and she said to Joseph: "It's okay, the saint's condition has temporarily stabilized."

"What's wrong with her miss?"

"There is nothing wrong with her body." The middle-aged female pastor pointed to her heart and said in a tone of an experienced person: "But she is injured here, it is very serious. She must have encountered something very uncomfortable recently. You have to accompany her and enlighten her."

Joseph was silent, and he didn't even know when the pastor left.

Under the influence of several healing and strong magic, Emma woke up late at night. The maid in charge of guarding her immediately rushed out of the room and shouted in the aisle, proclaiming the good news.

Joseph breathed a sigh of relief. He returned to his room, took out a white letter, came to Emma's room, and then placed the letter directly in Emma's hand: "This is the letter left by Lord Beta to you. I took it away without authorization. Miss, please punish me."

Emma ignored him, she hurriedly opened the letter, and her face, which had been weak, gradually let go of the strange light. Soon, she smiled, like a white lily blooming:

"Joseph, I'm hungry, prepare me for midnight snacks." (To be continued.)
