To put it simply, Modea fell in love with Colossi when she was very young. However, due to various reasons, Modea did not get Colossi at the first time. Perhaps because of this, Colossi became her one.
Even though nearly ten years have passed, she has not completely let go of her obsession.
"In other words, childhood sweethearts turned into robbery." Doakes touched his chin with his right hand and concluded with an "I understand" expression on his face.
Colossus replied with some trembling: "... Modea and I are not childhood sweethearts, I just met her a few times when I was a child."
But Doakes ignored Gloss's answer and still murmured to himself: "This seems to be a typical case of those runaway husband series novels that witches like."
Gloss continued to tremble and said weakly: "...I didn't run away."
Doakes still didn't look at Gloss, but his eyes lit up, as if a small light bulb flickered on his face: "No wonder the princess told you before, you can either merge with her or become her pet. It seems that
, she really loves you."
Crouch's expression was suddenly startled, and he looked at Doakes in disbelief: "Sir, how could your lord know about this?"
Doakes answered this time and said with a smile: "I was watching from the side. She was much gentler to you than that kid who calls himself the Demon King."
When Colossi heard this, his face turned a little pale and his lips were trembling.
Angel looked at Gloss's expression, and then looked at Doakes saying "gentleness" in a strange tone, and he probably understood in his heart that this gentleness might not be that gentleness.
"Speaking of which, you are still able to persist in not surrendering despite her temptation and treatment, which makes me look at you a little differently." Doakes looked at Gloss deeply and said.
When Angel heard this, he somewhat understood why Doakes' previous evaluation of Gloss was: a bit interesting.
I think it was probably because I saw this scene.
Grouch, who received the rare admiration from Doakes, did not feel any joy at all. He lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, and murmured in a very light voice: "It's not that I haven't thought about surrender... But, Blaze is here
Next to me, he didn't choose to surrender, so how could I beg for mercy? Moreover, I didn't want to expose my inner vulnerability in front of others..."
Colossi's whispers gave the atmosphere a touch of sensuality.
Ms. Melo looked at Crouch, whose eyes were slightly red. She didn't want to comment at first, but in the end she comforted him in a low voice: "You have done a good job."
Angel didn't speak, but he agreed with Ms. Mello.
Is Gloss's heart really fragile? Angel doesn't know what happened specifically at that time, but looking at Doakes's evaluation of him, it can be seen that at least in his opinion, Gloss has achieved the point of "seeing him differently".
Even if Colossi wanted to hide his inner weakness as he said, or he didn't want to be looked down upon by Blazer, from a consequentialist perspective, at least he resisted until the end, and that was enough.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I'm actually crying, this is ugly." Doakes broke the quiet atmosphere at the right time: "Actually, that kid who likes to call himself the Demon King is better than you, but I don't pay as much attention to him as you do.
It's because you exude the smell of a good baby in the ivory tower from the inside out, and your contrast makes me look at you differently. But now, it seems that I still made a mistake, the ivory tower is still the same ivory tower. "
When Gloss heard what Doakes said, he immediately took a deep breath and suppressed the sour emotions in his chest.
But Doakes still shook his head gently: "It's no longer interesting."
This sentence was said to Angel, and Angel also understood what he meant. Doakes was preparing to change Gloss's evaluation from "somewhat interesting" to "not interesting."
But did Doakes really say that it was no longer interesting because Gloss was jealous?
Angel thinks, maybe not.
Most likely, after eating the melon, listening to the gossip, and having their curiosity satisfied, they become tired. This is just like some people whose desires are easy to satisfy. As long as they are relieved, they can leave ruthlessly.
And the consumed Gloss... will probably remember Doakes' words for a long, long time. If his mind is a little more sensitive, it may be like it is stuck in his throat until he dies.
However, Angel had no intention of explaining for Doakes. In his opinion, it would be good for Gloss to be hit.
Gloss may be really sensitive and fragile in his heart, but after Doakes' blow, if a similar situation does occur in the future, he may be able to remember Doakes' words, grit his teeth, and carry it on like this time.
Even if you pretend to be strong, you have to pretend to be strong.
"Now that you've finished telling your story, you can go down first." Angel looked at Gloss.
Grouch hesitated for a moment: "Sir, can I say a few more words?"
Angel did not refuse and signaled to him.
"Actually, I'm really not that familiar with Modea. If her knight guards didn't come to find me, I wouldn't even remember this person. So, it's definitely not a childhood sweetheart."
"Furthermore, I also feel that Modea doesn't like me as much as this adult said. She gave me a choice, either to merge with her or become her pet."
"Both of these are actually not good choices. Integrating with her sounds like a hint, but in my opinion, she may mean it literally. As long as I am eaten by her, I will be integrated."
We are one. As for becoming a pet, wouldn’t the end result be that she can take it as she pleases?”
After Colossus explained that he really had no affair with Modea, he apologized again and expressed his guilt.
Gloss: "Then I'll leave first and go take care of Blaze. He... is actually very good."
After saying "Go take care of Blaze", Grouch paused for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he only managed to say "He is fine" and then retreated.
"It's half-said, it's weird." Doakes shook his head and sighed, "I originally thought I could hear some gossip about the kid who loves to call himself the Demon King, but in the end he left without saying anything."
"You've had enough of the show, and you still need a little bit of gossip?" Angel responded casually.
Doakes shrugged and said nothing more.
Angel then turned to look at Ms. Mero: "After listening to the story of Gloss, what do you think?"
Ms. Melo thought for a while: "It's an absurd drama. However, it takes place in the Kingdom of Guman, so it's understandable."
Angel: "What I mean is, do you think the obsession in the princess's heart is really so urgent that she wants to catch Gloss at all costs, even if you are also implicated?"
Ms. Melo thought for a moment: "I don't know. On the surface, it doesn't seem like we will be involved as well, but that princess has a very strange character, and she might really be able to do such a thing."
Angel: "She didn't come to see you after she took you to jail, right?"
Ms. Mello nodded: "Except for Blaze, Gloss, and the injured Amisha, none of us have seen the princess."
Angel pondered: "This is also very strange. She seems to really not care who you are."
Ms. Mello: "Maybe it's really because of her personality."
Angel looked at Doakes opposite, meaning he wanted to ask his opinion.
However, Doakes said with an innocent face: "I have said what I should say before, I don't have any opinion on her, and I don't know the situation behind this matter."
Doakes was very sure, but Angel didn't believe it at all. Doakes must have discovered something in the Princess's Castle, otherwise why would he have mentioned "immediate interests" before and encouraged Angel to go and fight with him?
Princess fight.
However, Doakes didn't want to say it, and Angel didn't ask in detail. The truth here has an answer after all. If it doesn't work, send Dodolo here, and I'm sure he can see something.
Not long after Doakes finished speaking, Ms. Mello suddenly said: "Hey, old Potter is out."
Angel followed Ms. Mello's line of sight and saw Old Porter walking towards this side from the back hall.
Angel breathed out: "Forget it, let others investigate this matter. If she dares to touch the people in the Savage Cave, no matter what the reason, she will definitely find out the answer."
After a pause, Angel said to Ms. Mello and Doakes: "You are free to do as you like. I have something to explain to old Porter."
After speaking, Angel didn't say anything else and stood up directly and walked towards Old Porter.
When Old Porter saw Angel coming, his eyes and expression were full of excitement, and his lips even trembled a little because of it. Angel had seen this look many times, and almost everyone who had ever entered a barbaric cave would not fail to show surprise.
It's a strange color. So, you don't need to ask Angel to know what Old Porter wants to say.
When Old Porter was about to speak, Angel interrupted: "There are some things that are not convenient to discuss here. Let's go to the secret room before."
Old Porter nodded immediately and wanted to follow.
Angel then said again: "By the way, please arrange for these talented people to come again. I will go over and wait for you first. Oh, and there are patrolling guards outside. They will probably come soon. You can deal with it. Don't worry,
I set up an illusion outside, so they can't find out what's going on inside. Even if they are brought in, they are just entering an illusion."
"As for more details, you can ask Ms. Mello."
After speaking, Angel left the hall first without giving Old Porter a chance to speak.
Although Old Porter really wanted to follow Angel there, especially since he wanted to communicate about the Wilderness of Dreams at this time, Angel had already given the order, so he could only handle matters here.
Because he was anxious to see Angel, Old Porter became very efficient in doing things and immediately went to see Ms. Mello to understand the situation.
Ms. Mello was about to leave at this time. She did not want to continue sitting at the same table with Red Sword Doakes. But when she saw Old Potter coming, she stopped for a moment.
Old Potter was about to speak, but Doakes on the side said first: "Didn't the superdimensional wizard say he has something to do with you?"
Old Porter respectfully replied: "There are patrolling guards outside walking towards this way. Your Excellency asked me to deal with the matters concerning the patrolling guards outside first. These matters are more urgent. After I finish handling them, I will go find him."
Doakes whispered to himself: "Is this really true?"
Old Porter: "Yes."
Doakes had some doubts on his face. He always thought it was a bit strange for Angel to leave alone, but what Doakes said was fine.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore." Doakes sighed, picked up the wine glass and started drinking one glass after another. His mind turned back to how to fight the crown parrot.
Upon seeing this, Old Potter quickly asked Ms. Merlot about the situation in the Princess's Castle so that he could judge how to deal with the guards.
While Ms. Mello was briefly describing what happened to Old Porter, on the other side, Angel had already arrived in front of the secret room.
After pushing open the secret room, Angel did not enter. Instead, he casually constructed an illusion in the secret room.
If someone were here at this time, they would find that the illusion in the secret room is exactly what Angel looks like now!
As for Angel's true body, after the illusion was constructed, he opened the door of illusion, and his figure disappeared into the door and quickly disappeared.
…
Doakes's suspicion was correct. Angel did have something else going on, and this matter was related to the Princess's Castle.
However, Angel did not intend to sneak into the Princess's castle this time.
Instead, he came to the top of an uninhabited hill not far from the Princess's Castle, and looked down at the Princess's Castle in the distance.
Immediately afterwards, Angel took out something from his bracelet.
After a while, a shadow flashed across the hill, like a big bird flying across the night sky, and flew directly into the confines of the Princess's castle...
Angel, on the other hand, was still standing at the top of the hill, looking at the still lively and shining castle from a distance.
…
At this time, on the third floor of the princess's castle, wailing could be heard continuously.
One after another, the servants were pushed into the third-floor room by the extremely angry princess. After a while, some servants ran out of it in fear.
The princess grabbed the servant, took some unknown potion and poured it into his mouth.
All the servants who had been injected with the potion by her began to stretch and deform their bodies. Their bones changed, and their flesh and blood squirmed. This group of servants, who were no more than low-level apprentices at most, started to wail one after another.
After the wailing, there was the scream.
None of the servants with mutated bodies escaped death. In the end, they were all exploded and turned into blood foam.
After all the servants died, the princess looked back with angry eyes, and a new batch of servants were brought up. They saw with their own eyes the horrific death of the previous servants. Facing the gaze of the princess, they all shivered in fear.
stand up.
The princess didn't care about the life or death of these people at all, pointing at them: "Get in for me, hurry up, get in for me!"
The servant's screams could not arouse the princess' sympathy, but only made her angrier.
At this time, a hand gently patted the princess's shoulder.
The princess turned her head angrily and found that the person filming her was the Gray Crow Wizard who had been standing beside her silently.
"The servants in the castle are almost dead. If they die, no one will be able to serve you anymore. It's better to let them go." The Gray Crow wizard said softly.
Princess: "No, absolutely not! If I don't try to find out which medicine is effective, I won't stop! If the people are gone, we will continue to catch them. Everything is lacking in the kingdom, and the most indispensable thing is people!"
The Gray Crow Wizard sighed softly.
The princess sneered: "Don't think I'm just doing it for myself. Your situation is the same as mine, and you don't even look at your own face!"
Through the illumination of the mirror on the side, the Gray Crow Wizard can clearly see his face.
The hood he had been wearing had been taken off because he couldn't wear it without taking it off. His face and the top of his head were covered with colorful spotted mushrooms. These spotted mushrooms were now all over his body.
Some were big or small, and they filled his clothes to the brim.
Not only the Gray Crow Wizard, but also the princess standing opposite the Gray Crow Wizard, and the servants on the ground who escaped from the door and died.
His whole body was covered with mushrooms.
And what caused all this was the pink python Shrekum, which exploded after being touched by the princess.
I don't know what was put into Shrekum by outsiders. After it exploded, a large amount of mist began to spread, and everyone who was exposed to the mist would start to grow mushrooms.
The first ones to suffer were the princess and the Gray Crow Wizard.
The mushroom that grows is like a part of the body. If you cut it off, it will only hurt, and it will grow again soon. This terrifying growth made the princess panic.
Even if this kind of mushroom has no negative effects for the time being, it would be unacceptable for the princess to become ugly.
She has always pursued the most exquisite life, how could she tolerate having flaws on her body.
Therefore, she began to try to use various potions in Princess Town, and let these servants enter the room to be contaminated with mushrooms to test the potions.
But until now, there is no medicine that can inhibit the growth of mushrooms.
Just as the princess screamed in anger.
A strange laughter suddenly echoed in the already empty castle.
