"good."
Mei Lian readily agreed, but soon realized something was wrong.
us
What we? Where did we come from
Isn't he the only one here? Is he planning to take Xiyeer or Kallen out
Impossible. Even if he wants to take them, would they be willing to go with him
The ancient dead apostle's heart was filled with doubts, followed by more expectations.
The young knight had given him too many surprises and unexpected things. This was undoubtedly a precious experience for a Dead Apostle who had a long time and was becoming increasingly bored.
Now, he wanted to know what else the human being favored by Her Royal Highness the Princess could bring.
The expectation soon turned into reality.
Shinji, who went to the tower for lookout, came back with Kallen and Hier who were full.
The first thing he said when he saw Mei Lian was: "Open the door, it's my turn to go out."
"That's no problem—open the door!"
Mei Lian gave an order casually and asked again.
"But isn't there a skylight over there in the tower? It's a little narrow, but you should be able to fit through it."
"If it was just me, it wouldn't matter whether I went through the skylight or the main door, but I'm not the only one going to the battle. If I let her go through the skylight, you might get angry."
"angry?"
Mei Lian was slightly stunned by Shinji's answer, but soon she seemed to have thought of something and an expression of disbelief appeared on her face.
"Could it be—her?"
"Yes, that's her."
Shinji nodded, opened the backpack completely, took out the small coffin wrapped in it, and injected magic power into the middle seam.
With a "click", the coffin lid flipped open to both sides.
In an instant, pure white spread.
The world was replaced, no, it was changed.
White, pure white without a trace of impurities, spread out.
The surrounding floors, furniture and even the entire room are immersed in a pure white world.
Only in the center of the pure white world are there different colors.
Dazzling gold, cold silver, and a touch of inconspicuous black.
Blonde is the color of hair.
The princess in the long white dress with pure white hair, although she is the princess of the moon, her hair is brighter than the sun.
Seeing this golden color, Xier's expression was complicated, full of anger and sadness.
Mei Lian involuntarily knelt on one knee, her face full of excitement, and her red eyes flashed with deep intoxication.
He whispered, "Your Highness."
The silver comes from the chain.
The pure white princess' body was bound tightly, her power was suppressed, and her consciousness was sealed.
Her Royal Highness the Pure White Princess is in the pure white world, in this dense and cold chain, on a pure white throne made of unknown material, with her eyes closed, sleeping quietly.
Finally, there is black, a light black that is inconspicuous compared to the dazzling gold and dense silver.
If it weren't for the contrast of the pure white world, this color would likely be overlooked.
It was a black kitten, lying on the princess's lap, sleeping with the pure white princess.
The princess's guardian and only guard knight walked silently in front of the throne along the only gap in the chain and picked up the black cat.
The black cat opened its eyes intelligently and climbed onto Shinji's head skillfully, as if it had done this many times.
But this time, Shinji shook his head, took the black cat off his head and handed it to Meilian.
"She is the link between me and Her Royal Highness the Princess. Please take care of her for me for the time being."
After saying this, Shinji reached out and grabbed the chains that bound the princess and pulled hard.
With the sound of "click, click, click", the chains detached from the princess' body as if by spirit, gathered into Shinji's hands, and finally disappeared.
The princess lost her support and lowered her head, falling down, but was supported by Shinji who was prepared.
The knight called softly into the princess's ear.
"Wake up, Princess."
"..." The princess' eyelids moved, but she showed no intention of opening her eyes.
"Wake up, Your Highness." The knight called again.
"Hmm..." The princess moved her lips but still did not open her eyes.
The knight's mouth twitched, and he flicked the princess's smooth forehead with his free hand.
"Get up, you lazy bastard!"
"Ah!"
The princess immediately opened her eyes, covered her forehead with her hands, and complained: "I'm not a lazy person, it's just that you woke me up in the wrong way."
Shinji chuckled expressionlessly: "Then tell me, how should I wake you up?"
"Chuck~" Elquet pouted her lips.
"Speak human language." Another slap.
"Ah, use a kiss, Shinji, you idiot." Arquette was still pouting and complaining, "That's how it's played on TV, the knight uses a kiss to wake up the sleeping princess."
Shinji turned his head and looked at the black cat lying on Meilian's shoulder, "Lian, what did you show her again?"
The black cat is of course Lian, who once saved Shinji from losing his arm and was later adopted by the Matou family. He is very likely the last Nightmare in existence.
Because food is human dreams and essence (life force), his schedule is basically opposite to that of humans, and he likes to stay in Shinji's room, so his sense of existence is very low and he is often ignored by his family.
It was not until Elquet could no longer suppress her blood-sucking urge and had to seal herself that Shinji took her out of her home and placed her next to Elquet, weaving dreams for the sleeping princess.
There are two kinds of dreams that Elquet likes the most. One is the happy memories she created by herself, laughing and playing with Shinji and other people in the Matou family. The other is the entertainment products created by humans, such as movies, TV series, anime, games, etc.
The drama Lian recently showed Elquet a relatively old one about knights and brave men. Stepmother Elsa liked to watch dramas, and sometimes she would hug Lian and watch them together. Thanks to her, Elquet never lacked entertainment in his dreams.
Of course, dreams are just dreams, and no matter what, they can never compare to reality, so Elquet has always hoped that Shinji can make "dreams come true."
Feeling the message that Lian conveyed through the contract, Shinji sighed helplessly.
"The scene from Sleeping Beauty... I was wondering why it felt so familiar."
"Hehehehe, so you know this. Don't make the mistake of waking me up next time, okay?"
Her Royal Highness the Princess smiled naturally, but Shinji had become immune to that kind of smile and answered unhappily.
"Ah, there is no mistake. I shouldn't be so gentle. I should be more rough, like using my fists."
"Why, Shinji, you idiot!"
"You still have the nerve to ask why? Use your brain. Why would I wake you up if there was nothing wrong? Don't you see what the occasion is? Is this the time to act like a spoiled child?"
"ah-"
It was not until this moment that Elquet realized there were other people around.
Two acquaintances.
