Chapter 337 Are you jealous?
The sun sets and rises, and the day and night pass quickly.
The passage of time in the Ring of Magic world is still normal, with both day and night, unlike the Dark Souls world, which is always frozen at dusk.
Moreover, the sun in the Dharma Ring world has not gone out. Even though the sun's light is blocked by the golden tree, that great celestial body can still be seen if one looks carefully.
Praise the sun!
Gayleid, the church of corruption.
"Hum..."
With a confused groan, Millicent slowly opened her golden eyes.
The confused eyes slowly focused, and the thoughts after a deep sleep gradually became clear.
After a moment of stunned silence, Millicent suddenly came to her senses and was about to sit up to look around, but a hand pressed on her shoulder, forcing her to continue lying flat.
"woke up?"
A voice came from above her head. Millicent tilted her head back and looked. What she saw was the face of the man who brought warmth to her before she fell asleep.
After a pause, feeling the softness under her head, Millicent blushed a little. She seemed to be resting her head on someone's legs. She wanted to sit up, but that hand was pressing her down again.
"Um, can you let me sit up?" Millicent asked in a low voice, her eyes wandering and not daring to look.
"Um... no."
Xia Yu grinned and reached out to comb Millicent's red hair as if he was petting a cat.
This was the second woman who rested her head on his thighs, the previous one being Little Red Riding Hood Roderica.
Now Roderica has become an excellent spirit trainer who can help him enhance the power of soul ashes. She currently lives in the Round Table Hall of the Great Blessing.
The little girl who used to cry all the time has now become strong and gentle, and she feels a sense of accomplishment.
Achievement achieved: "The Development of a Girl"
Achievement +1
Hearing Xia Yu's refusal, Millicent closed her eyes in shame, and even the white lines on the right side of her face could not hide the blush on her face.
Feeling the slight trembling of the delicate body on his legs, Xia Yu braided Millicent's hair into two ponytails with some mischievousness. Although a single ponytail would make her look more heroic, the two ponytails also had their own unique flavor.
Moreover, under the purification of his fire spell, the messy red hair has become clean and smooth.
After a few seconds, Millicent used one arm to push herself up and forced herself to sit up from the ground.
After escaping from Xia Yu's clutches, Millicent took two deep breaths, calmed her beating heart, and then looked at Xia Yu.
After seeing the smile on Xia Yu's face, she couldn't help but blush again.
But soon, she put away the other expressions on her face, and then bowed deeply and solemnly to Xia Yu.
"I can feel my body calming down. You cured the corruption in my body, right? I really don't know how to thank you enough."
As she spoke, Millicent reached into her pocket and pulled out a yellow square amulet with two figures holding swords carved on it.
After taking out the amulet, she handed it to Xia Yu with one hand: "I cannot repay you for your kindness in healing me, but please accept this humble token of my gratitude."
Xia Yu did not refuse. Amulets like this come in a set. As a collector, he would feel itchy if he didn't collect them all.
Seeing Xia Yu taking the amulet, Millicent's nervous expression relaxed. Although she didn't think that a small amulet could repay the kindness of treatment, it was better than nothing in return.
Her self-esteem does not allow her to accept the benefits of others with a clear conscience.
"Thank you again for your help. Could you please tell me your name? I'd like to remember it." Millicent said seriously.
Xia Yu, who was standing by, also sat up from the ground, dusted himself off and said, "Just call me Xia Yu. You don't need to use honorifics with me. I don't like it."
"Okay, I understand... Xia Yu."
Millicent nodded, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to obey Xia Yu's idea without using any honorifics.
"My name is Millicent, and I'm a swordsman."
After a brief self-introduction, Millicent turned her head to look at the scarlet ground outside the church and murmured, "During the time I fell asleep, I vaguely remembered my destiny. I want to pursue my destiny."
"so……"
Millicent looked back at Xia Yu and said seriously, "I want to go out and travel, to find that illusory destiny. I'm sorry, I can't repay your kindness for the time being."
When Millicent said this, she didn't dare to look at Xia Yu's face. He saved her, but she chose to leave.
But the fate that suddenly emerged in her mind was indeed very important to her, so important that she had to say it shamelessly.
Even though she doesn't know what that fate is yet...
In response to this, Xia Yu reached out and patted Millicent's shoulder, gave her a thumbs up and showed a hearty smile: "I'll go with you!"
"!!"
When these words came out, Millicent was startled, took a step back in surprise, and then hurriedly shook her head.
"No, no, no, you've helped me enough. How can I trouble you again?"
"And... and I haven't repaid your kindness yet, you don't have to..."
Bang!
Before Millicent finished speaking, Xia Yu suddenly took a step forward, reached out and grabbed the girl's waving hand, then stared at her confused face.
Being stared at by Xia Yu's shameless gaze, the naive girl quickly felt uncomfortable and could not help but turn her head away.
The atmosphere gradually became strange. Millicent lowered her head and asked in a whisper, "Why are you so nice to me? This is obviously the first time we meet..."
That's you, not me.
Xia Yu's heart returned, but he said, "To be honest, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. Your strong and gentle will moved me and I can't forget it."
Facing Millicent's shocked expression, Xia Yu continued to say affectionately: "Although I don't know what your fate will be, I am willing to stay by your side and bear it with you."
Millicent: (⊙д⊙)
Let her take it easy, is she being confessed to?
“I, I, I…!”
Millicent hurriedly shook off Xia Yu's hand and turned away somewhat at a loss. No matter how strong she was, she was still just a girl, and a girl who was experiencing such a scene for the first time.
After taking a quick glance at Xia Yu, Millicent took several deep breaths, hardened her heart, and spoke directly to Xia Yu.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept your feelings."
After rejecting the other party in one go, Millicent felt relieved, suppressed the regret that suddenly arose, and spoke again.
"Although...um ...I'm...sorry."
After stuttering for a while, she couldn't utter a complete sentence, and didn't dare to look up at Xia Yu's expression at the moment.
Even though she had never experienced a rejection of her love, she could imagine the other person's ugly expression.
But... she didn't want to treat her benefactor like this. She knew her own situation. She was suffering from scarlet corruption and her life was saved by the benefactor.
Promising to someone while you are sick is not only irresponsible to yourself, but also to others.
She...is not qualified to be loved.
Millicent's eyes were dim. Perhaps she would have to pursue an illusory destiny alone for the rest of her life, and then die alone in pain.
Bang!
Suddenly, a warm hand patted her head and rubbed it gently.
"I like you is my business, whether you accept it or not is your business, I just told you my feelings and want to be by your side, so whether you accept it or not, it will not affect this fact!"
After saying this, Xia Yu frowned, feeling that these words had a bit of a bootlicking implication.
No, the real bootlickers should be Mare Mare and Dog Brother, not him.
Hearing this, Millicent was struck by lightning and was speechless for a moment. Looking at Xia Yu's serious expression, her heart couldn't help but beat faster.
Feeling the strangeness in her body and the warmth above her head, Millicent blushed and lowered her head, mumbling softly.
"I...I understand."
Just as the atmosphere was gradually turning towards ambiguity, Millicent hurriedly withdrew from it. Her identity doomed this love to end in tragedy.
If you don't make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences.
So Millicent suppressed her feelings, turned her back to Xia Yu, and looked at the scarlet hillside in the distance.
"I'm leaving now. It's better if you don't accompany me. After all... this must be a difficult and dangerous road."
"No."
Xia Yu suddenly walked to Millicent, took her shoulder, patted her gently, and said with a smile: "We can take the road to heaven. It's very safe in heaven."
After that, before Millicent could react, he raised his right hand, put the spirit horse whistle on his index finger to his lips, and blew gently.
A soft sound echoed.
The illusory spirit horse soul floated out from the whistle and then solidified in front of the two people.
The moment she saw the spirit horse, Millicent was a little surprised.
But she still didn't quite understand what Xia Yu said about walking on the road to heaven. Could it be that this horse could fly, but she didn't see any wings?
After summoning Torret, Xia Yu patted Torret's neck and fed him a handful of dried loya fruit, which was Torret's favorite food.
After crunching down a handful of dried loya fruit, Torrett snorted with satisfaction and then rubbed Xia Yu's body affectionately.
Xia Yu patted Torret's neck again, and taking this opportunity, Xia Yu ignited the hellfire in his hand, and the flames covered Torret's whole body.
Hellfire can be enchanted, and Torret happens to be a spirit horse, so his soul and hellfire are a perfect match, and the two complement each other perfectly.
The next moment, Torret's four hooves were on fire. He raised his front hooves and roared towards the sky, and with a loud snort, he spewed out two streams of hot fire.
Then darkness spread over it, and the dark and dull armor wrapped Torret tightly. The two horns on the horse's head were stained with blood and extended out, like a nightmare warhorse from hell.
At first glance, the special effects are extremely dazzling, completely surpassing the golden horses of the Tree Guards and the black cloth horses of the Night Cavalry.
Millicent looked at this scene in surprise, but the enchantment was not over yet. As the darkness spread, a pair of broad black wings grew on both sides of the horse's back, making Torrett look even more majestic and handsome.
“Wheeze~”
However, although Torret looked handsome, he still looked like a calf in front of Xia Yu. When he was about to lower his head and rub Xia Yu, a palm suddenly blocked it.
"Stop."
Xia Yu blocked Torret's action in time. Torret was now wearing a full set of armor, and the horns on his head were strengthened, so any touch would be a critical hit.
"Whew~"
Being rejected by his master, Torrett let out a disappointed sound and lowered his head.
Xia Yu: “…”
Ignoring Torrett's deliberate disappointment, Xia Yu looked at Millicent proudly and said, "How is it? This is my cow and horse. Isn't it handsome?"
“…”
Millicent took a deep breath and looked at Xia Yu with complicated eyes. The better Xia Yu treated her, the more conflicted she felt.
However, Xia Yu seemed to be blind to Millicent's struggle, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Millicent's knotted sleeves.
It was covered in blood and emitted a faint smell of blood.
“Sizzle!”
Under Millicent's puzzled gaze, Xia Yu suddenly tore off Millicent's sleeve, revealing the wound on her broken arm.
"Don't move, I'll heal you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yu channeled the power of the ring fragment, golden light lit up at his fingertips, and then wrapped around Millicent's broken arm.
Under the stimulation of the law of life, bones first grew out of Millicent's broken arm, and then blood vessels and meridians emerged, and flesh and blood spread.
After a few seconds, a complete arm grew out.
"My...my hand?"
Millicent squeezed her newly grown arm in disbelief. The familiar feeling and the touch of the breeze told her that her broken limb had regenerated.
"Are you...are you...a demigod?"
In her understanding, it seems that only Queen Marika and her descendants can possess this kind of power. Since the other party cannot be Queen Marika, it seems that the only option is her descendants.
And all of Queen Marika’s offspring are demigods without exception.
"Demigod?"
Xia Yu muttered something. It was too weird that an incarnation of a demigod's will actually asked a faded person whether he was a demigod.
"I'm not, I'm just a regular fader."
As Xia Yu answered, flames ignited in his hands again, this time it was a spellfire.
As Xia Yu tapped lightly, the flames swept past, and Millicent's blood-stained clothes with a broken sleeve immediately turned into clean and comfortable travel clothes.
Millicent: “…”
You still say you are not a demigod!
She had never heard of such a miraculous method. Apart from the almighty demigods, no mortal could do it.
"Okay, let's go!"
Xia Yu took advantage of the situation and put his arm around Millicent's waist, then jumped onto Nightmare Torret, then put his hands around Millicent and grabbed the reins.
"Hey~"
"Let us live a carefree life together in this world~ Let us ride on horses and enjoy the prosperity of the world~"
Humming, Torrett sprinted forward, leaving behind a series of fiery hoof prints.
Then he did a double jump while sprinting, flapped his wings and took off while staying in the air. In an instant, Torrett turned into a black dot and disappeared.
Sky.
Xia Yu hugged Millicent and held the reins, feeling indescribably comfortable. He had wanted to do this for a long time, but unfortunately he never had the chance.
Among the women related to him, Roderica is a homebody who doesn't like to go out.
Lani would definitely not be able to wipe her face, after all, she was a proud woman who had to put four books on the seat to increase her majesty.
Not to mention Melina, a spirit who usually stays in his body, and definitely wouldn't come out just to ride on the same horse with him.
"Are you really in love with her?"
At this moment, a cold female voice sounded in his ears. Judging from the tone, Melina had spoken.
Because Melina was inside him, the two could communicate without speaking.
Hearing Melina's question, Xia Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Are you jealous?"
"...No." Melina's tone remained unchanged.
"I'm just worried about the promise you made to me."
