Qingshui Villa is the largest villa under the name of Earl Xilu Jade. It is built next to Qingshui Town in the central area of ​​Xilu Jade. If you include the villa area and the surrounding mountains and forests belonging to the villa area, two-thirds of the entire Qingshui Town The land belongs to Qingshui Villa, so some people jokingly say that the reason why such a Qingshui Town was built deep in the West Green Emerald Forest is entirely to serve the owners of Qingshui Villa.

Although the Earl of Xilu Jade is the nominal owner of Qingshui Villa, in fact, this villa belongs to the Earl's daughter Xilu Jade Light Devenna, and the reason why this villa was built was also for this countess. The countess has been living here since the day the villa was built. Whether it is the servants, workers who work in the villa, or the townspeople in Qingshui Town who specialize in serving the villa, they all think that Devena is the villa. The master is also their master.

Just like most of the residents of Qingshui Town, Lawson Bob, the housekeeper of Qingshui Villa, also moved from other places after the establishment of Qingshui Town more than ten years ago. He is also moving like other residents of the town. After arriving here, they were recruited by Bieyuan and became their servants, specifically serving their master Devena.

Over the past ten years, he has gradually been promoted from an ordinary male servant to the housekeeper of the Villa, and has become one of Devena's trusted subordinates. This is all because he abides by the basic rules of being a servant, that is, except for his own share. Except for other things, no matter how weird and weird other things are, don't interfere, turn a blind eye, and listen but not hear, just like what is happening in the pavilion by the pond now, even if he sees it, before Devena has clear instructions, he will None of them had any intention of going to check on the situation.

He had known about Devina having an invisible friend a long time ago. At that time, he was a valet who was responsible for serving dishes and delivering food. He saw how Devena moved toward a pile of air. He spoke as if there was something invisible in the air.

At that time, he just felt extremely sorry for the beautiful and kind-hearted little girl in front of him. Even though this little girl had a family background far beyond ordinary people and did not have to worry about life problems her whole life, she would never be able to see anything like ordinary people, nor could she see anything like ordinary people. Ordinary people generally walk normally, and cannot make friends like normal people. She has lived in this deep forest far away from society since she was a child, surrounded by servants and subordinates, so that this little girl was so lonely that she began to create a false world in her mind. Friends.

Or maybe it was because he saw Devena's secret, but he strictly kept his mouth shut according to the servant's rules and did not disclose any information to the outside world. After a month, he made an exception and was promoted from a lower-level valet to a housekeeper. The position of the housekeeper's assistant is to assist the villa housekeeper in handling some internal affairs of the villa. Until the housekeeper retired two years ago, he successfully took over the housekeeper's position.

Even after taking over the position of housekeeper, Lawson still abides by the servant code and will not talk too much about anything related to Devina. However, in his status, he can no longer do whatever he wants to do with many things, especially In the past two years, Miss Devena has been getting sick more and more often, and she doesn't care about the people around her when she gets sick. Many people in the villa already know that Miss Devena has an invisible friend.

Although he used his power to block the mouths of the servants in the villa as much as possible so that the news could not reach the countess, there was no airtight wall in the world. Even if he had done his best, he would still be

News leaked out, and the countess knew about Miss Devena's current situation. Just now, he had received the news that the countess had secretly come to Qingshui Town and was heading towards the villa. It seemed that it was for Devena.

It's because of the lady's illness.

"Lord Lawson, do we need to do anything?" When Lawson felt a headache due to the arrival of the Countess, one of his assistants came forward and asked in a low voice.

"What to do?" Lawson glanced at his subordinates coldly and said, "What can we do?"

The housekeeper assistant pointed carefully at Miss Devena who was talking to the air in the pavilion, and said: "Just remind me..."

"Remind Miss?" Lawson glared at his subordinate and said, "Then you will be held accountable by Madam?"

The assistant immediately lowered his head after hearing this, and everyone else around him also stopped talking. They all knew in their hearts that although their owner was Miss Devena, the person who hired them was the countess. Maybe they had offended Miss Devena.

Just being scolded a few words, or losing your job, it is a fatal thing to go against the countess. Those once famous and powerful people in West Green Emerald are the best proof, but now those people have become a pile of graves.

At this time, the guard captain responsible for the security of the main area of ​​​​the villa opened the door and walked in, saying to Lawson: "Sir Lawson, Madam's carriage has entered the front door."

"Let's go! Let's all go to the front door to greet Madam." Lawson heard this and immediately gave instructions to other people around him. But when he walked to the door, he paused slightly and said to his assistant.

: "The everyone I'm talking about is everyone except protecting Miss Devena, and it also includes the maids who are responsible for serving Miss Devena outside the pavilion. Do you understand?"

The assistant was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood what Lawson meant, nodded, and said: "Yes, I understand, Mr. Lawson."

As he spoke, he separated from Lawson and went to the open space near the pavilion. He loudly ordered the maids and male servants who were waiting there, ready to listen to Devena's call, to go to the front yard and line up at the main entrance of the villa, and

I'm afraid I won't hear anything from the other side of the pavilion.

The sound was very loud. Even if the maids and male servants were not specifically ordered to wait in line, anyone with a little bit of command would know that the only people waiting in line in the villa, except for Miss Devena who was already in the villa, were the only ones waiting in line.

The real owner is the Countess.

Although the housekeeper's assistant had tried to make his actions as eye-catching as possible, it was very likely that Devina's attention in the pavilion was completely focused on another thing that was crucial to her at the moment.

"What did you just say?" Devena widened her jewel-like eyes, looked at the magical light man in front of her, and said in an extremely excited tone: "What you said is true, can you heal me?"

"Yes." Leo responded briefly.

If other people said this, Devena would not believe it at all. Her problems have been looked at by countless people in the past few years. Even the archbishop of the True God Church has come to see more than one, and each one of them has asked.

He used the most powerful healing magic in his church, several of which

Even people who were dying could be saved, but falling on her not only failed to cure her body, but made her feel even more painful, so for her, curing herself was no longer an extravagant hope, she just

I hope that my life will not be so painful and that my friends can always stay by her side to accompany her.

Now a stranger suddenly said something that could cure her. While she instinctively felt doubtful, she also had an inexplicable trust in Leo. She felt that Leo was not just talking nonsense, but could really cure her and give her something to do.

The reason for such confidence was not only the tree demon Ruta Xi who could really relieve her physical pain, but more importantly, Leo's form at the moment and the feeling this form gave her.

After the serious illness that almost killed her, Devena became completely blind and could not see anything at all. After so many years, she had already forgotten what the things in the outside world looked like.

However, at this moment, Leo appeared in front of her in the form of a light man, allowing her to "see" in the true sense again.

Something, and more importantly, when she looked at Leo carefully, she could see some scenes from the blurred light and shadow on the edge of his light-human form. Those scenes were the scenes in the pavilion where they were now. Although the image was very blurry, it was

For her, it was a feeling she had never experienced in more than ten years, and it also gave her a glimmer of hope to regain her sight.

In addition to Leo allowing her to "see" things again, Leo's light-human form also gave her an inexplicable sense of intimacy. This sense of intimacy was like seeing a very close relative.

This sense of intimacy gave her a very strong sense of trust in Leo, and she felt that Leo could be trusted, even if what he said sounded ridiculous, it was still credible.

"What do I need to do?" Driven by this strong sense of trust, Devena did not ask more about Leo's ability to treat herself, but asked very sincerely how she could cooperate.

The opposite of Devina's trust was the tree demon Luta Xi. She put her hand on Leo's shoulder and asked Leo very seriously: "You are not talking nonsense, are you? You can really save Devina."

Na?"

Dryad Rutaxi's distrust of Leo is very normal. After all, over the years, she has thought of various ways to treat Devena's problems, but in the end, she tried her best to soothe Devena.

The pain in the body.

After opening the bloodline memory, she discovered the possible causes of Devena's physical abnormalities from the knowledge in her mind, and found some corresponding methods.

It's just that those methods can only be done after returning to Luyuan, because with her current strength, she can't use those methods at all, because the power required by those methods is too great, and she can't afford it now.

of.

It was precisely because she knew the cause of Devena's blindness and paralysis, and how difficult it was to treat it, that when she heard Leo suddenly say that he could cure Devena, she instinctively doubted Leo's words.

Even though she knew that Leo must have something special because of Bai Lu's instructions, she still thought that Leo's ability was not enough to treat Devena.

However, in the face of Dryad Lutaxi's questioning, Leo seemed very calm, and did not even intend to refute the other party. He just said to Devena: "You don't need to prepare anything, I just want to remind you that you will know the treatment process."

It's very painful. It's as painful as peeling off your skin and cutting off your blood.

Meat, you must bear this pain, stay awake throughout the treatment process, follow my instructions and cooperate with me step by step to complete the treatment. Otherwise, once you lose consciousness during the treatment, what awaits you is not just a failure of treatment.

, it is even possible, no, it should be said that he will definitely die."

The other two people in the pavilion fell silent after hearing this. They were obviously frightened by Leo's words. In their opinion, no matter how dangerous the treatment was, it was just a failure of treatment and a return to the original state. But now Leo told them

The result of failure was death, which forced both of them to think about it. Devena, who had been very excited just now, suppressed the impulse in her heart to agree immediately, and calmly considered whether she should take this risk.

Just when both of them were lost in thought, Leo suddenly spoke again: "I think you should find someone to discuss this with someone now."

Devena didn't understand the meaning of Leo's words at first, and looked up at Leo suspiciously, but then the sound of footsteps coming from far away made her realize that someone was approaching the pavilion, and there were quite a few of them.

This made her frown, but soon she thought of something, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.

She knew very well that the people in the villa would definitely obey her orders, and she told them to stay away from the pavilion. They could not approach without hearing her instructions. It was absolutely impossible for them to disobey her orders. The only explanation for this situation now was that there was something else.

A more authoritative person canceled her order, and there was only one person with such authority in this villa, and that was her mother, Countess West Green Emerald.

Sure enough, as many footsteps stopped not far from the pavilion, the only sound of footsteps entered the pavilion, and a familiar fragrance penetrated Devena's nose.

Devena took the initiative to ask at this time: "Mother, weren't you patrolling the territory with the palace minister? Why did you suddenly come to Qingshui Villa?"

The countess was not surprised that her daughter could identify herself even if she couldn't see the things around her. She walked up to Devena, sat on the couch, and reached out to remove a strand of hair that fell from Devena's forehead.

He threw his back, and then said with concern: "I immediately stopped patrolling the territory when I heard the news about you, and came here to verify the authenticity of the news. Devena, tell me honestly now, did you show up?"

Hallucination?"

"Hallucination?" Devena immediately understood the reason for her mother's sudden arrival. She was not surprised by it. In fact, she deliberately showed her conversation with the tree demon Luta Xi in front of others, and she had already planned to make her

Her mother knew about this, but she didn't expect that her mother would find out much later than expected. It seemed that someone in the villa was helping her hide this.

"Mother, you misunderstood!" Devena shook her head and said, "That's not an illusion. I really have a good friend. She is by my side now, but you can't see her.
