Chapter 25
Anna had only those jewels burned to ashes in her eyes, and she kept repeating her harsh criticism of the devil-he was just crazy!
Good jewels are all conceived by nature after so many years. With a touch of his hand, they all look so beautiful in vain.
Anna took a deep breath and tried to comfort herself.
The devil’s things, maybe it is full of curses, burn it, then burn it... Ah, but it still hurts!
Facing the demon's seemingly malicious joking gaze, Anna tried to control the muscles on her face so that her expression became very stiff. She pointed to the table and said, "Is lunch still there?"
The fire that Rothgar set off this time is different from the one that Bobby burned to death. The time Bobby was burned to death, when he set fire to no longer control, those fires were just ordinary fires, and they could not be controlled anywhere. But this time, during the whole process of burning the jewels, he controlled the fire element, so the table was fine, the jewels were gone, leaving only a piece of ashes.
"Why not?" Rotgar asked back, and a gust of wind started out of nowhere. A tiny tornado engulfed the ashes on the table, hit the open and closed windows, and rolled them out of the window.
Anna thought that the devil, a humanoid vacuum cleaner, was quite efficient. She walked over in silence and took out the food in the food box and put it on the table. She also quietly touched the tabletop, and there was really no ashes at all.
Rothgar sat down at the table, looked at Anna in a very good mood, his eyes moved with her movements, and asked her for a long while: "I regret it?"
Anna took the last food out and put it away, put the food container on the ground, and answered unambiguously: "No regrets."
Although she does feel heartache, she does not regret it. After all, how can she even know that the devil is crazy about burning books, and she can still burn jewelry?
Rothgar didn't feel disappointed when she heard her answer. She said that she didn't regret it, but he didn't believe it and didn't regret her expression just now.
He slowly cut off a piece of steak and fork, looked at Anna, as if bewildered, and said: "If you want, I can get someone to buy more at any time."
"No, Lord Ulysses, I don't regret it." Anna said nonchalantly. She was still immersed in the heartache of the shocking scene just now, and she didn't even bother to pay attention to the demon.
Rothgar glanced at Anna and said nothing more.
Although her expression pleased him, but today he did not achieve the goal he intended to achieve. He couldn't help but start thinking about what went wrong.
Of course, he is definitely not the one who has the problem.
So maybe those jewels are not to Anna's liking?
After Anna packed up and left, Rotgar hadn't come up with a definite answer, but he was not in a hurry.
Since it seems that Anna's interest in the Son is not so great now, it is better for him to try more "romantic" methods.
As soon as Anna walked into the garden carrying the food container, she saw the eye-catching figure.
After seeing the long silver hair clearly, her heart tensed, and she quickly lowered her head when she didn't see it, and was about to slip past quickly.
She finally used Parrish to give the devil an illusion that she was not interested in the Son of God, but she didn't want to fall short for it.
She felt that the devil was unreasonable at all, maybe she just appeared in the garden with Shengzi, and when he saw it, she thought she wanted to treat Shengzi. If the devil possessed Saint Son, it would really harm Saint Son and herself.
Anna lowered her head and walked fast, not knowing that Feng Shui turned around. Once she tried every means to get close to Ulysses who was not possessed by the devil, but now she wanted to avoid the holy son.
Although the tall figure is still a few meters away, the gentle and alienated voice has reached Anna's ears: "Please wait a moment."
Can you not hear it?
Not wanting to make any suspicious behavior to make the Son of suspicion, Anna paused, looked up at the beautiful figure that seemed to be full of high light, and quickly lowered her head and said, "Holy Son, what do you have to say?"
There was a very shallow smile on the face of Shengzi, as if cold and compassionate.
"The four-star mage in the mansion, do you know where he lives?"
Anna was taken aback.
Eh? Actually went to the devil? Shengzi, are you going to fight the devil?
Although the devil doesn't seem to be afraid of the Son at all, what if the devil miscalculates his own strength? After all, the saint child in front of him looks really amazing.
The thoughts in Anna's heart flashed, the place where the devil lives is not a secret, Shengzi can ask anyone who asks it, of course she will not hide anything.
"It's in the small building over there." Anna pointed to her origin and replied respectfully.
The son nodded slightly, his eyes fell into the distance, but he just stood there and did not go directly.
Anna saw that he didn't say anything again, and then left silently after saluting.
Under Rebecca's teaching, her etiquette absolutely can't make mistakes.
When Anna returned to the kitchen, she was still wondering if the Lord Son was accumulating energy. He didn't go to trouble with the devil right away, it can be seen that she is not reckless at all, she has a little more confidence in him.
I really hope that when send dinner to the devil later, will find that he is no longer in Ulysses' body.
Anna prayed silently, but remembered the time she went to deliver food to Parish. She was ecstatic when she saw that the devil was gone. She thought that Ulysses had expelled the devil, but she turned her head and saw that the devil was possessed by Yuli. For Seth, let alone how uncomfortable it feels... not this time, right?
Anna was worried until she found out that the devil was still staying on Ulysses when she sent dinner, and she didn't know whether she should be relieved or disappointed.
She didn't dare to test whether the son had been there, for fear that the demon thought she liked the son, so he acted on the son in advance.
This time, Anna saw nothing on the table, relieved, slowly took out the food and put it on the table. As soon as she was about to step aside, she heard the devil say: "Look, do you like it?"
Anna followed the devil’s sight and saw that there was a hanger on the side of the room with more than a dozen long skirts with their own characteristics. The bright colors were intertwined, and they were shining like jewels at noon. nice.
Thinking of this, Anna's face changed.
She has seen the ending of these clothes being burned to ashes.
"I like it very much." Anna replied sadly.
Rothgar was not surprised by Anna's answer. Even he thought these dresses were good. He thought of the lunch and raised his eyebrows: "Or not?"
Anna listened to his voice with a malicious smile, he seemed to be telling her plainly that if she didn't want it, he would burn them all like noon.
Anyway, it was not her money that was burned...
Anna sullenly replied: "No."
"You take a closer look." Rothgar said.
Anna was stunned, and after listening to the devil, she took another look at the skirts. Upon closer inspection, she discovered that the decorations of these skirts...have gold coins!
Some of those coins were attached to the collar, some were attached to the hem of the skirt, and some were placed in a row on the waist, like a belt made of coins.
Anna felt ashamed at the moment.
Books, jewelry, skirts, these have to be turned around to become gold coins, but now, the shiny gold coins are in front of her, so many skirt decorations, to say nothing, there are seven or eight gold coins, dozens of silver coins and hundreds of Copper coins.
She is going crazy.
Anna looked at the demon in grief, she felt that he was really a demon, and she could think of such a way to "torture" her!
Rothgar is indeed seriously thinking about improving his "romantic method". She has collected all Parrish's things. Why doesn't he want her?
He guessed it was too expensive and too direct.
Parrish put the coin on the flower as a decoration, and she readily accepted it. Now that he puts the coin on the skirt as a decoration, she should accept it in the same way.
But seeing Anna's expression, he felt something was wrong again, which was different from what he thought.
"Master Ulysses, if I don't want it, are you going to burn them again?" Anna's voice trembled.
Rothgar said of course: "What do you keep the useless things?"
Anna trembles again. "Useless things" are talking about clothes and she seems to be talking about her. When she feels that the devil runs out of patience and can't get her soul, she is useless to him. , Will be burned by him too.
When she looked at those clothes again, Anna felt a little bit more sadness of death and sorrow.
Perhaps it is the use of poison to fight poison, sadness comes, and the heartache is gone.
Anna lowered her head and said, "I can't accept these, please dispose of it as you please."
Rothgar was silent for a long time, so he won't accept it like this? Because it wasn't from Parish?
He can no longer possess Parrish, if she is really tempted by Parrish, he has to kill Parrish.
Just like at noon, the only thing Anna didn't accept was an eye-catching attribute in Rotgar's eyes. He raised his hand and waved it lightly, and the skirts burned blazingly.
Even if Anna didn't look over, the flame still faintly jumped in her pupils. Thinking about the three gold coins she had saved, she felt a trace of comfort.
Anyway, what the devil burned was not her thing, just don't see it.
Against the backdrop of the raging flames, Rotgar slowly ran out of his dinner.
When Anna packed up her things and left, he suddenly asked, "You only like flowers?"
After all, Anna only accepted flowers.
Rothgar didn't know that Anna mainly collected money, and the flowers were incidental. In his eyes, those coins were just "decorations" of flowers.
"I like flowers."
Anna seemed to be answering Rothgar's question, but actually correcting him. She likes flowers, but prefers gold coins.
If the devil thinks that she likes flowers and only sends her flowers, she can still accept the picture of flowers being burned-as long as they don't put gold coins on them.
Rothgar nodded and signaled that Anna could go.
Anna took the food box and left, and suddenly realized that if you don’t look at the evil inside hidden under the handsome appearance, and don’t think about the real purpose of the devil, he looks like a straight man awkwardly begging her. Joy.
But what he is doing now seems to be giving a full set of lipsticks to those who never make up, completely taking the wrong direction.
Of course, what he didn't know was that because he was wrong, she wouldn't pay attention to him even if he was in the right direction.
Anna went home after a day of heartache, and looked at the street scenes on the way, and she felt relieved.
It is July at this time, but because of the geographical location of Ingolly and the climate, the temperature changes little throughout the year, and the meaning of the month is not so great.
Thinking that in a few days, I will work in Earls Court for a full month and can receive salary, so Anna feels better. The ten silver coins of her salary can be openly known to her family. At that time, she can give them some gifts, and then the family can eat something well and celebrate.
Anna detoured the tavern as usual and brought food to Dibian.
Although the environment where Dibian lived temporarily, the ruins were very safe, and no one would come over. Anna waited for Dibian to eat, and then began to review and study with him.
Dibian sighed while teaching Anna nearly a hundred words, and then he told Anna a little bit about two interesting facts about his learning spells and asked Anna to continue to practice meditation.
She hasn't felt the natural elements yet, and many things must be combined with practice, and now it is useless to tell her in advance.
Anna put on a meditative position, closing her eyes and feeling her surroundings.
She has been trying to meditate for two days. Although she still can't feel anything, she is not in a hurry. It takes two months for others to feel it. No matter how talented she is, how can it be possible in two days?
Anna comforted herself when she suddenly realized that there was some blue-violet light entangled on her right side. She just wanted to see, there was more white light on the left side, and then it seemed as if there was a bang. After closing her eyes, she was originally gray and black. Suddenly, the world was filled with light of various colors.
Anna opened her eyes suddenly, her expression uncertain.
Dibian was looking at Anna's face a little distracted, and seeing her suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes fled, and his ears turned red unconsciously. Fortunately, the sky was hidden, which made him not more embarrassed.
Then he noticed that Anna's expression was wrong, and he couldn't help asking worriedly: "Anna, what's the matter?"
Anna looked at Dibian, opened her mouth but thought it was too shocking. She waved her hand and said, "Wait a minute."
After speaking, she closed her eyes again, slowed her breathing, gradually removed the distracting thoughts from her mind, and reentered the state of meditation.
Gradually, the gorgeous colors reappeared in the vision that Anna shouldn't have. She watched these colors mischievously scurrying in her vision, her excitement could no longer be suppressed, and she opened her eyes suddenly to face the tension. Dibian, who stared at her, said, "I see the elements of nature!"
Being able to feel the natural elements means that she is an elemental affinity body!
The big rock that Anna had been hanging on her chest before finally disappeared, and she has the confidence to change her destiny!
Hearing Anna’s words, Dibian looked surprised, but then he said sincerely and happily: "Anna, congratulations, your talent is really strong. If you meditate for a few days, you can try to learn some simple little things. Spells."
Anna was also extremely happy at the moment. If it weren't for Dibian's misunderstanding, she really wanted to give Dibian a big hug and thank him.
"Thank you, thank you very much, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the chance to do it." Anna's eyes were very bright, and she was excited to express her excitement, "Is there anything you want to eat? I will bring you tomorrow! "
Dibian was used to fleeing with the teacher before. He didn’t have high requirements for food, and he could fill his stomach. But at this time, he didn’t want to disappoint. He just smiled and said, "Bring me a roast goose and a dash of rice tomorrow. Beer bar."
"Okay!" Anna nodded, took a deep breath and said, "I will consolidate the results first, and it will be miserable if I suddenly don't feel it afterwards."
Dibian wants to say no. Once she feels the natural elements, the surrounding natural elements will feed her back to her mental power. As her mental power gradually increases, the natural elements will become stronger and stronger for her. It's hard for her to feel it.
But seeing that Anna had closed his eyes and entered a state of meditation excitedly again, he closed his mouth.
It's great. Seeing Anna's joyful appearance, he was also infected. He was separated from the teacher, mentally disordered, and in the shadow of being found and killed by the priest. All these seem to be nothing.
Anna didn't want to go home too late, so she could only finish her consolidation very quickly, and went home after saying goodbye to Dibian.
When she got home, Adele and Little Evan were still awake, so she grabbed the nuts and divided them into half. The eyes of the two were bright, and they ate happily. Their usual snacks were very few, and they could not eat this handful of nuts once a month.
Anna gave the rest to Guy, and Guy will distribute it.
This is what she bought when she went to the tavern to buy food for Dibian. The gold coins she had taken from Dibian before were inconvenient to use, but the silver and copper coins Parrish gave her today are just right.
Of course, what she told Gay was that these nuts were not needed in the kitchen, so she took them back. Guy didn't understand the kitchen in Earls Court, and didn't doubt it.
On this day, Anna fell asleep in a state of meditation, "watching" the colorful spots of light.
She slept very comfortably, and she knew it would not be just a good dream when she woke up.
The earl’s mansion fell silent after the banquet was over in the middle of the night.
In the quiet garden, suddenly there were a few more dark shadows, all of them covered their faces and bodies with robes, and they couldn't be seen even in the moonlight.
The leader seemed to recognize it for a while and chose a direction to sneak quietly, and at the end of the road was the small building where Ulysses, who was possessed by Rotgar, lived.
Rothgar opened his eyes.
He slowly put on his clothes, walked to the window, and looked at the mouse-like figures below.
Then, his gaze looked not far away, in the shadows, there also stood a small building, in which the Son of God lived.
Rothgar laughed suddenly.
No wonder the saint son came to him to "visit" at night, but he ignored him, and the other party left, but left something behind.
He hadn't thought about starting with Saint Son so quickly, since that's the case, don't blame him.
