Emilia sat on the chair and looked at the simple room.
To say this is a room is actually being polite, because apart from a hard and cold stone bed covered with straw, a rotten wooden chair, and an equally shabby square table, there is no other furniture in the room.
The small room has only one window, which is high up and consists of four small holes as thick as arms. Only at noon can the room feel some sunlight. At other times, darkness shrouds the place, making it look quite gloomy.
The iron door made this place more like a prison. No sound could be heard from outside, which made the whole room even more terrifying.
"My mother was here back then..."
Emilia thought of her mother, and she felt a little sad.
A large part of the reason why she is here is because she wants to make up for the mistakes her mother has made, so she has repeatedly given in to this disgusting family. Even when Reiner and the others came to rescue her in person, Ellie Miya didn't say anything either.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside.
"... I have ordered that no one else be allowed to..."
"... She is my future wife, why..."
"... ... wait... ... "
Bang—
The iron door was opened, and what appeared at the door was not the prince who saved Amelia, but Edward, Amelia's brother and the man who was about to become her husband.
Alymiya had been humiliated by the other party many times before, but this time, she felt something was wrong.
"Master, please go back."
Next to her, a maid tried to dissuade her, but Edward gave her a sharp look.
"If you talk too much, I'll strip you naked and throw you into a dark alley full of drunkards. It's not your turn to take care of me in this family."
Edward's words made the maid dare not say anything anymore and stood aside silently.
Amelia looked at her brother with disdain. She noticed that Edward was holding a pipe in his hand and sucked it from time to time. The expression on his face became extremely excited and his eyes were extremely erratic. It seemed different from ordinary smoking. Same.
The smoke that Edward exhaled made Amelia frown. This was not normal tobacco. What did he add to the pipe
The doubts were not explained, and Edward had already grabbed Emilia's wrist and pulled her hard.
Her face was twisted in pain, and a little light flashed on Emilia's white arms.
crackling—
The lightning quickly spread to the place where the two touched, and Edward felt paralyzed, and then withdrew his hand.
"Damn that stinky woman."
Edward was referring to Amelia's mother. The magic she exerted on her daughter has not weakened at all even after eighteen years. As long as anyone wants to harm Amelia through physical contact, this ruthless thunder and lightning will It will completely paralyze the opponent.
Emilia looked at Edward who was covering his arms and shook his head.
"Until that day, you get nothing."
But after that, he will become the slave of the other party.
Said in her heart, Alymiya felt a twinge of cramps. She decided to stay at the Albiore house in order to get a place to stay, but it seemed that this place would only bring endless pain and torture to herself.
"Haha, although I can't do anything to you now, I have thought of another way."
Edward smiled, took out a folding knife from his arms, and pointed it not at Amelia, but at the maid.
"I will kill this servant bit by bit next, unless you do what I say."
He grabbed the maid's wrist, put the knife on her neck, and stared at Emiya.
"what do you want... ... "
Emilia asked in a deep voice. She didn't expect Edward to do this. Is he crazy
"Take off your clothes quickly."
A sharp shout came from Edward's mouth, making Amelia's body tense up.
Even if you can't get her body, do you still want her to suffer all the humiliation
Seeing the tip of the knife slowly touching the maid's fair neck, Emilia sighed, raised her hand, and was about to untie her belt.
"Edouard Albiore."
A deep voice came, and the next moment, invisible arms took away the knife held by Edward and pressed it firmly against the wall.
"you again!"
Edward looked at the other person and gritted his teeth.
The person coming was none other than his uncle, George Albiore.
Alymiya was in a daze. She noticed that beside this unsmiling uncle was her personal maid Anweina who followed her there. It seemed that Anweina had called George over.
"You can't see her before the wedding. That's the rule."
Entering the room, George said coldly, while glancing at Alymiya.
Anweina nodded slightly in greeting and felt relieved when she saw that Alymiya was fine.
"You are such a troublesome guy. When I become the head of the family, I will definitely banish you to the wild demiplane!"
Edward struggled hard, but was no match for George's magic.
"You are not in the right state, what is this?"
Hearing Edward's words, George was stunned at first, and then quickly noticed something strange. Although the previous Edward was a bit arrogant and domineering, he still had a sense of awe for the elders in the family and would never say such a thing. of.
He looked at the pipe in the opponent's hand, took it out from the air with a mage's hand, and smelled the smell inside.
"This is not ordinary tobacco. Where did you get it?"
Although George didn't understand tobacco, he had heard some rumors that there was a special drug that could make people extremely addicted and affect the mind at the same time. He felt that there seemed to be something similar in this pipe.
"It's not your turn to discipline me, loser!"
Edward roared, causing George to freeze on the spot, and the mage's hand that was holding him relaxed.
After spitting, Edward looked at Emilia and finally ran away.
George shook his head, then took Anweina out of the room and closed the iron door again.
Anweina took one last look at the room and left with George.
She originally wanted to come over to see the situation and deliver Lena's package, but she saw Edward wandering into the tower. She had a premonition in her heart. Anweina immediately found George and explained the situation, and then moved in the reinforcements. .
After everyone left, Emiya returned to silence again.
She felt her heart beating very fast, and when she thought about becoming the slave of such a scumbag from now on, Emiya felt a wave of nausea from the bottom of her heart.
Emilia returned to the chair and wanted to take a rest, but she found that on her desk, there was an extra package, and there was a red and black letter on the package.
There is no sender or recipient on the envelope.
Alymiya looked around, then opened the envelope, and saw a paragraph written on the letter paper in the form of cut-and-paste, and the three big words at the beginning were clearly a notice letter.
