บท 48: The Calm Before The Storm
"King Roy, since you have healed my body, I must work for you because of my feelings and reasons, otherwise people will say that Princess Alice is an ungrateful lady, but I also have a request..."
Princess Alice held on to her bed's headboard to support herself, her tone reserved and elegant, her beautiful posture was like a noble woman.
"I know your request, you want me to disarm my power from over your housekeeper."
Roy finished the words before giving the chance to Princess Alice to speak, then he raised his left hand and snapped his fingers:
"...well, the power of my Eyes of Sodom has been lifted, as a clever princess you are, you should have known that I was not here to kill people."
"It's just that some people are rather naughty, so I had to punish them. Now, princess aid me with my ceremony. Of course, Your Royal Highness has the right to refuse, after all I'm not a person who impose my will on others."
"But, if in my inner 'grief' and 'sadness', this King by mistake release his power, then unfortunately, you may have to see the headlines of the destruction of the wealthiest areas of London in tomorrow's news."
Roy said something terrifying in a quite mild and gentle voice.
When Princess Alice heard his words, she smiled bitterly:
"...you really deserve to be the demon king on earth, you don't have the brask and reckless attitude of other Campiones."
"It is said that the Martial Leader of the East and Marquis Voban are the most devilish among all Campiones. One more brutal than other..."
"As long as anyone hears her without her will, Lord Luo Hao will cut off that person's ears, and if someone shall see her face without her permission, she will poke out that person's eyes."
"Marquis usurped <Undead Servant> from Osiris, the Egyptian God of the Underworld. He likes to turn those who he have slain into his undead servants, who are forced to obey him. Let those who hate him for killing them, serve him as his slave."
"Although you do not use such cruel methods, the fear that you bring to people seems to direct hit at a person's spirit. Well, I have been left with no choice."
"...Then, King Roy, when shall we leave?"
At the beginning, Princess Alice was still bitter and unspeakable, but in the end her face was filled with eagerness.
She happily controlled her body to move back and forth, as if she was enjoying herself while moving with her real body, her sapphire green pair of elegant eyes were also full of expectations for what would happen next.
Roy spoke with a smile: "Sure enough, Princess Alice, you are a person who likes to join in the fun. People like you have no distinction between good and evil."
"Even if the world is going to perish tomorrow, you will be eager to see the 'magnificent' scene of the doomsday. Ah, I miss the 'pure' and 'serene' Miss White Hime-Miko I was introduced to."
Roy can see through the nature of Princess Alice at a glance. She is the type of woman who fears that the world would not be 'chaotic' enough.
The more chaotic the situation, the more dangerous the circumstances, more it will arouse her interest. Otherwise, she would not headstrong with a powerful being like a Campione with the power of a 'mortal'.
"I hope that King will not slander a gentle lady like me. I'm just curious about the unknown, I don't participate in it for my own pleasure."
"Moreover, white contains an equal balance of all the colors of the spectrum, representing both the positive and negative aspects of all colors. So, White Hime-Miko is the most fitting title for me, it's just that before king only saw one side of me. But King you are truly whimsical. Sometimes, I cannot even say for sure if your anger or smile is true."
Princess Alice smiled happily, but there was a little bit of black belly trait in that beautiful and simple smile.
Roy shrugged his shoulders and said: "I won't deny that. I was never a easy person to be understood, it's not like want anyone's understanding. Simply, I do what I will. So, Japan..."
Princess Alice raised her hand and gave a reassuring smile and then, resolutely picked up the antique phone next to her and began to dial to arrange their next course of actions, while complaining:
"...There are also troublesome aspects to move with the real body. Spirit Body is more comfortable, I can move to any corner of the world in an instant. Now to go to Japan, it will take a long time to fly over there."
Soon, Princess Alice made arrangements with the British Royal Mage Association— Royal Court, and at the same time arranged a private jet at the airport.
She put down the antique rotary dial landline phone on the metal stand and turned to face Roy, her red lips slightly opened, she smiled like a polite lady as she said in an impish tone:
"...King Roy, I need to change into formal clothes. I hope you can show a little gentleman behavior and vacate my boudoir."
Roy denied with a calm smile: "It doesn't matter, Princess Alice, you can just change here. Erica and Liliana are also here, so no need to worry, I won't do anything to you."
"Besides, you can start with changing clothes in front of me, so you get used to it for making your treatment procedure more acceptable."
Princess Alice's heart jumped suddenly, faintly feeling that something was wrong, "Used to what?"
"Your body's stubborn illness can't be cured in just one 'therapy'. It also needs a follow-up course of treatment, just like the previous mouth to mouth therapy. So, if you want to heal completely, it would be better if we get 'adapted' to each other soon."
Roy smiled heartily, he knows, you must not let this woman take the initiative, otherwise it is very likely that she will led you by the nose, and when you come to understand, everything would have already happened and she would have walked miles away.
No wonder Black Prince Alec would be helplessly played around by her.
Of course, these so-called therapy and treatment are all fake. His <Miraculous Spring of Life> has already healed her body as well as removed her 'debuff'.
But the tempting idea to take Princess Alice in his 'harem' has already settled in his mind. His tales of love would be definitely better than his father.
His father is different, as long as it is a presentable woman, Aleister is willing to accept to have a night stay, while Roy only eats the rare delicacies of the world, even if it will make him pay more.
Erica and Liliana were at a loss as they heard Roy's words, while Princess Alice bit her silver teeth in secret, and finally dropped her hands on the neckline of her pajamas, unbuttoning the buttons, the unbuttoned pajamas slipped off her figure, revealing her slender beautiful body.
The waywardness of this man left her with no choice.
...
–The next day–
In the depths of the Alps, there was a villa built in a snowy fairyland like area. A gray haired old man was sitting in front of the bonfire, sipping a cup of hot tea.
"My new kin is really a bold and detached young man. This reminds me of the silly boy with a sword. Hah, two years ago, that silly boy took my prey."
"Now there are younger people who want to take my toys, it seems that if I don't move my bones a bit, they will not understand what it means to respect the elderly."
The old man slowly put down his teacup and stood up. He was a healthy and athletic old man, dressed like a kind old gentleman, but his penetrating green eyes were full of a wolf's viciousness and ruthlessness.
"... But I still have to thank the young man for his efforts. The location of the little girl who hides in England has been exposed."
"If I capture her and make use of her Spirit Vision, I will able to find the hidden location of other Hime-Mikos and witches, and my new ceremony can be held without waiting for a few years."
The old man gave a cruel smile and ordered: "...prepare the plane for me."
...
In an art gallery in the countryside of England, a short black haired nobleman looked at the information in his hand and crushed the paper blankly, feeling unspeakable thorniness in his heart.
