I became a cannon fodder villain. If I want to survive, I must take care of my baby first.

The world is full of wonders, even ghosts are no exception. It’s just that ordinary people can’t see them, so they think they don’t exist.

Lycoris' magic "Blood Shadow" has the ability to communicate with the dead, which is also known as clairvoyance.

At that time, a ghost happened to float by. Seeing that the other party was still conscious, Manjushage hurriedly called her and asked the passing ghost girl to help secretly put the jewels on the carriage to Judith.

The undead girl agreed. While she was busy moving the jewels, other people saw Lycoris radiata just standing there motionless. They never imagined that there was an invisible ghost present!

It's just a pity for Judith. She was charged with theft before she even entered the banquet hall.

But it was her fault that she had caused trouble just now, causing Manjushage not to escape. Just consider it as revenge.

"Thank you for your help." Manjushage smiled and thanked the undead girl. The undead girl looked dull and nodded stiffly, then floated away silently.

Ghosts are like this, even if they still remain in the world, most of them are not mentally stable, and it is a blessing to be able to communicate.

Even so, Manjushage was still grateful to her from the bottom of her heart.

After some twists and turns, the master and servant finally got on the carriage back home.

Perhaps it was because she was too tired, and the carriage was spacious and comfortable to sit in, so after a short while, Manjushage could not help but fall asleep.

As soon as she woke up, the voice of the housekeeper Cora rang in her ears: "Miss Manjusaka, we are here."

After getting off the carriage in a daze, Manjushage just opened her eyes and woke up: "City... Castle?!"

What appeared before my eyes was a tall, magnificent and imposing castle, standing above the earth like a crystal palace.

Even if Manjushage knew that she was a daughter of a noble family, she would never have thought of living in a castle like a princess!

It would be a lie to say that she was not happy. Manjushage felt dizzy and almost fainted from excitement.

Just as she was becoming dizzy with the castle and about to lose her mind, a corner of the high wall suddenly exploded.

"Boom!" A violent explosion sounded, and the beautiful outer wall of the castle was blown to pieces.

Golden flames exploded, creating waves of heat, and the ruined castle walls turned into dust and scattered all around.

What's going on? A terrorist attack?

Lycoris was so stunned for a moment that she even forgot to feel sorry for him.

It took her a long time to react, and she said belatedly: "Come to think of it, this seems to be my home!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Before Manjushage could scream, several dusty maids ran out of the gap screaming. When they saw Manjushage, they ran up to her as if they had seen a savior.

"Ms. Manjusaka, you are finally back. Go and take care of Mr. Luo Shiqi, otherwise..."

Before he finished speaking, there was another loud bang, and the castle gate collapsed, raising a large cloud of dust. Looking through the long-vanished gate, the decadent scene was in full view:

Broken high walls, devastated ground and an inner courtyard almost in ruins.

"Where is this, hell?" Manjushage was completely stunned.

The housekeeper Cora shook her body vigorously, trying to make her realize the reality: "No, Miss Manjushage, wake up, this is your home!"

Watching the castle fall into ruins was like going from heaven to hell.

Before Manjushage could recover from the huge fall, the smoke and dust dissipated, and a white figure suddenly rushed out of the ruins of the castle.

He was a silver-haired man with an upright figure and a handsome face that was somewhat androgynous. His long silver hair, as dazzling as stars, was tied into a long braid at the back of his neck and hung down to his waist. His charming golden pupils emanated a sharp light that was intoxicating.

If you see such a beautiful woman in the world at ordinary times, you should take a second look at the Lycoris radiata.

However, a woman fainted when she saw such a thing, and a man suddenly threw himself into the arms of Manjusaka and cried wildly when he saw the troubled young man.

He was crying and his nose was running, and he kept rubbing against Lycoris radiata's body, like a spoiled child.

"Wait, this is dirty!" Manjushage subconsciously wanted to push the person away, but she was not as strong as Luo Shiqi, and she couldn't push him away after trying her best, and she almost fell down.

After finally steadying her body, Manjushage thought something was wrong. Her position had not changed, and Luo Shiqi couldn't push her away. So didn't she look like she was actively welcoming Luo Shiqi's arms?

This scene was so misleading that even Cora couldn't help coughing twice: "Ahem, Miss Manjusaka, let's put aside the lovey-dovey talk and repair the castle quickly."

"Oh...oh!" Manjushage seized the opportunity and quickly ran out of Luo Shiqi's broad arms, but one of her delicate little hands was still tightly held, as if she was unwilling to let go.

Luo Shiqi's strength was so great that Manjushage tried several times but failed to pull her hand out. She had no choice but to give up and turned to Korra for help: "What should I do?"

"It's okay to put Mr. Luo Shiqi aside for now, Miss Manjusaka. What matters now is the repair work of the castle, so just do it as you usually do." The housekeeper Cora said lightly.

Does "it's okay" mean that the castle will be destroyed instantly?

What kind of family are they that don’t even care about such a huge loss!

Also, what is it like normally? Is this castle often destroyed?

Although I am very concerned about this, since Cora, the housekeeper, has said so, I will just listen to her.

"What is it like usually?" Manjushage muttered to herself, but she took out a small knife from somewhere.

Her heart sank. If she had really let Donna search her before, who knows what kind of trouble would have happened.

The magic of blood, does it require bloodletting?

Manjushage glanced at the hand that Luo Shiqi was holding, closed her eyes, and hardened her heart to cut a scar on her arm.

"Eh, it doesn't hurt?" Suddenly, a large amount of blood oozed out of the long wound and dripped onto the ruins of the dilapidated castle.

The blood spread wildly in all directions as if it had consciousness, splitting into countless tiny blood beads, seeping into the shattered remains of the castle from all directions.

At this moment, a magical thing happened. The castle's outer wall, which had been shattered by the explosion, automatically repaired itself at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a short while, it was as good as new without any trace of damage.

"This is too cool!"

Although the original owner seldom used magic actively, his blood filled with magic power would always be released inadvertently, subtly influencing the surrounding environment like the ubiquitous air.

No wonder she lived to be twenty-four and rarely went out. Under the influence of blood magic, this castle had long become the most solid fortress in the world, and only a freak like Luo Shiqi could destroy it.

If it were her, she could stay in such an impregnable and luxurious castle for her whole life without having to worry about food and clothing every day.

“Ah…”

Just as Manjushage was immersed in the fantasy of a beautiful future, Luo Shiqi beside her sniffed her nose at an inappropriate time and curiously played with Manjushage's delicate palm.

He was very curious as to why such a large wound healed instantly.

This also comes down to the magic of Lycoris radiata.

"..." Manjushage looked at the culprit who almost blew up her house with a complicated expression.

In the original work, Luo Shiqi is a character with a very mysterious background.

He has no memories and no traces of his past life, and he first appears in a huge disaster that happened not long ago.

A giant dragon that only exists in legends suddenly descended on the border of the Kingdom of Aslan. It devoured the land and spit out endless black dust that covered the sky, plunging the entire country into a haze.

In order to defeat the dragon, the Kingdom of Aslan paid a heavy price. Thousands of people died in the war. Black dust, mucus, and countless broken limbs mixed together. The remains of the victims piled up into mountains, and the blood dyed the entire sky red.

It was on such a tragic battlefield that Luo Shiqi appeared.

The spiral staircase connected heaven and earth. He descended from the sky covered in golden light, controlling the golden fire to burn away despair.

He pushed aside the fog, burned all the corpses, and fought with the dragon together with the King of Angels. The battle lasted for three days and three nights, and he finally killed it, saving everyone's lives.

However, the battle was too brutal and Luo Shiqi almost exhausted his magic power. He fell into a deep sleep and lay in the castle of the Xingchenhua family for two full months before waking up.

If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will happen at this point in the story.

As expected, this handsome man with an adult's body not only lost all his memory and could not speak after waking up, but even his mind became as innocent as a child.

He couldn't control his overly powerful magic power, and would often cry over trivial matters, causing the golden flames to rage.

During that time, what woke up the residents of Star Flower Territory was not the crowing of roosters or the ringing of the hall bells, but the violent explosions coming from the castle.
