Chapter 387 The Road to Eternal Night IV

readx; The Land of the Peaks, St. Karen's City.

A maid hurriedly walked into the door of the manor. She looked around for a while, then came to the door, and then knocked lightly. Soon, the heavy door opened, and then an expressionless person looked like

A middle-aged woman who looked like a housekeeper was standing there. She was as cold as ice and stared at the maid in front of her with a serious face. Feeling her gaze, the maid couldn't help but shrink down.

"that………"

"The eldest lady is still sleeping, you can go in and wait for her to wake up."

After saying this, the middle-aged woman got out of the way. Faced with her words, the maid could only wipe the sweat on her forehead profusely, then lift up her skirt and trot into the room.

inside.

Walking in the luxurious and beautiful corridor, beads of sweat once again appeared on the tip of the maid's nose, but this time it was not because of fatigue, but because of nervousness. She followed the housekeeper and walked inside. At the same time,

In his mind, he quickly recalled and sorted out what he had seen and heard in the past month. St. Karen's City is the most dazzling pearl in the East, and the flow of information here is also very convenient and fast, but the little maid knows very well that

The eldest lady is not just here to listen to her story. If she tells all the unmodified rumors like this, even she herself doesn't know what will happen.

But the little maid can be sure that it will definitely not be a good thing. Those "exes" who disappeared inexplicably before are warning her that this is definitely not a good choice.

Following the housekeeper, the maid just stared at her toes. It wasn't until the housekeeper stopped and opened a door that the little maid let out a breath. Then she raised her head carefully and followed the housekeeper in.

Room.

This is a large bedroom. The luxurious furnishings and red velvet curtains all show the luxurious taste. However, when it comes to luxury, nothing can compare with the things in this room itself.

There are countless gold coins and treasures.

Thousands of gold coins were piled up in this room to form a sparkling golden ocean, and in this ocean, you can see gems scattered everywhere, as well as various utensils and equipment.

Statues. Made of silver, crystal, and even mithril. All kinds of extremely luxurious treasures are scattered and buried in the sea of ​​gold coins. From time to time, you can see a sword hilt or a

The head of the statue is like a fish swimming happily in the water. Under the illumination of the luminous pearls embedded in the corners, the whole room is shining with brilliance - that is the brilliance of wealth.

But the most eye-catching thing is the petite figure lying in this "ocean" at this moment.

That's a girl.

She looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing a pitch-black nightdress, and her long, pure black shawl hair fell down the girl's beautiful face, outlining a bit of playfulness and cuteness. Her carefully crafted face and

The facial features make people involuntarily indulge in it, and the white and delicate skin reveals a faint white light, making the girl look more and more beautiful. It seems that she is the most worthy treasure in this treasure room.

However, the appearance of this "treasure" lady is obviously not very dignified at the moment. She is holding a black rabbit doll, lying lazily on it and falling into a deep sleep. The hem of her black nightgown is turned up.

She opened it, revealing her slender and beautiful legs. The girl seemed completely unaware of this. She just closed her eyes and buried her head in the rabbit doll she was holding tightly. She seemed to be having a good dream.

.

The housekeeper didn't speak, and the maid naturally didn't speak either. She just stood there with her head lowered, not daring to breathe and looking at the ground. She didn't even dare to look at the dazzling array of treasures in front of her. It seemed that they were some kind of poisonous snakes. Just look at them.

It looked like he would be bitten by it at a glance. The girl seemed not to notice their arrival at all. She just lay there and fell asleep soundly.

Time passes minute by minute.

The sun outside the window has fallen below the horizon, and even the excitement of the evening has subsided, replaced by the silence of midnight. The housekeeper and the little maid are still standing there quietly, motionless. However, the latter has obviously already

I was a little tired. My legs had begun to tremble slightly, but I just relied on my strong willpower to hold on.

"Hooah..."

I don't know how long it took, but I saw the little girl who had been sleeping soundly yawning. Then she raised her head in a daze and rubbed her eyes. Seeing this scene, the housekeeper and the maid immediately lowered their heads.

, without saying a word. It was not until a moment later that the girl seemed to wake up completely. She blinked, as if she had just noticed the two people standing at the door.

"...You guys are here...by the way, how long have I been asleep?"

"Thirty-six days, five hours and thirteen minutes, my lord."

Soon, the housekeeper gave a respectful answer.

"Well...I didn't have any good dreams this time...it's so boring..."

Hearing the housekeeper's answer, the girl rolled in the sea of ​​gold coins and muttered dissatisfiedly. And when she heard her talking to herself, the little maid shivered even more fiercely. Her face was almost pale, and she had a big bump on her forehead.

The beads of sweat kept dripping down. However, both the girl and the housekeeper seemed to be used to this. The housekeeper just glanced at the little maid, and then looked at the girl in front of her again.

"Do I need to prepare dinner for you, Miss?"

"Of course, I'm hungry today, so give me three times the amount."

"yes."

Hearing the girl's answer, the housekeeper nodded. Soon, she took out a bell and shook it slightly outside. Not long after, she saw two maids walking in carrying roasted suckling pig and roasted chicken.

In the room, they carefully placed the dinner plate in front of the girl, and then immediately said goodbye and left. The girl didn't care at all, she just sat up with her legs crossed, then took a roast chicken and tore it open

, and then stuffed it into her mouth with relish. Then, the girl turned her head and looked at the little maid.

"By the way, let's hear about some interesting things that have happened these days."

"Yes, Miss."

Hearing the girl's question, the little maid hurriedly answered. Then she hesitated for a moment, and then slowly began to tell what had happened in the past month - as one of the most prosperous cities in the East, St. Calendar

The city naturally has its own unique methods in terms of intelligence information. From the jealousy among nobles to the friction and conflicts between countries, all kinds of news and rumors come and go with the wind.

Duels, wars, assassinations, these things made the eldest lady yawn repeatedly, looking at her as if she was bored and about to fall asleep immediately. But her men did not stop because of this, honey-glazed roast chicken, roasted breast

Pigs, roasted whole lambs, charcoal-grilled whole cows, one after another fragrant and sumptuous delicacies were brought in from outside, and then entered the belly of this eldest lady. She almost finished a leg of beef in a few mouthfuls, and then put the

He threw the huge leg bone to the side, picked up a roast goose, and stuffed it into his mouth without looking at it. It was like a cartoon character, and then he saw the young lady making a swallowing gesture.

The next moment, a roast goose fell into her stomach along her slender throat, and there was no more movement.

"It's all boring stuff."

It wasn't until dawn was about to break that the girl patted her belly with satisfaction, and then threw down a cow bone. She licked her tongue first, licking away the last trace of oil on her mouth, and then looked at the woman

housekeeper.

"By the way, who is cooking today?"

"He's Chef Dalkin and the most famous chef on the entire East Coast."

"It's a waste. There's too much oil in it, and the vegetables are too salty. It's far behind what my brother cooks."

As she spoke, the girl waved her hand contemptuously.

"It's not that easy to defraud me of useless things. Just kill them."

"Yes, Miss."

After listening to the girl's words, the housekeeper responded in a low voice, then turned and left. Only then did the girl burp with satisfaction and looked at the little maid next to her. When she felt the eldest lady's gaze, the maid was frightened.

Her face turned pale, and she took two steps back, but was careful not to lean against the wall. Instead, she straightened her body and gingerly accepted the girl's gaze.

"They are all boring stuff, but the last thing you said is a bit interesting. I heard that the western wilderness is shrouded in eternal darkness? Is it true or false?"

"It's true, Miss."

Hearing this, the little maid nodded hurriedly.

"I got the news from the temple. The Holy Church has started to send people to investigate. There is no daylight in the listening room, it is always night. And the people who go in are going crazy, and there are many, many terrible monsters. I heard

The Ten Towns Alliance is over, and now people there are panicked, and many people are worried whether this could be a sign."

"interesting."

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in the girl's eyes. She stood up and walked around on the gold coins with her bare feet, showing a thoughtful expression.

"This is really interesting, West Wilderness? Whose territory is that? Forget it, I'm too lazy to remember it, but it looks like that turtle's trick - Hey, it really surprised me, I

I thought that guy would hide in his turtle shell and never come out, but she actually took action? Well, it seems that she is determined to win her brother... Well, yes, that must be the case!"

After saying this, the girl seemed to be sure of something and punched her palm.

"I really didn't expect that turtle with such energy. Well, I'm going to see what that guy did. If it's confirmed that she did it, then I will definitely punish her and tell that turtle

What is the order of elders and younger ones!”

After saying this, the girl walked to the door, kicked the door open, and shouted loudly.

"Come here, change your clothes, I'm going to the West Wilds!" (To be continued.)
