Ruby's Otherworldly Adventure

Hearing Ruby's answer, Ashe was very happy, she knew that the matter was already half done, as long as the later statement was reliable, Ruby would not refuse.

So Ashe signaled Ruby to follow her, and took Ruby to a very stylish shop.Then she opened a box, ordered some food and drinks, and then rejected the guard maid with the reason that she wanted to exchange feelings with the sisters she hadn't seen for a long time. After confirming that she was not listening, she tentatively said: "It's not a big deal This matter is easy for you, I think the presence of the Earl is too much of a hindrance, and I want to kill him." As she spoke, she gestured to cut her neck.

Ruby raised her eyebrows: "Do you think I'm a fool? If I kill the earl, the whole of Brunei will be covered with my arrest warrants in a few days. Even if I escape to other places, other countries will not accept the assassination of nobles." people."

In the end, Ruby said suspiciously: "Why don't you go to the Assassin's Guild for this kind of dirty work, those guys who stay in the shadows all day will definitely be willing to take this job, and they will never reveal the employer's news, don't you Are you trying to trick me? If there is no sincerity, we don’t have to talk about it.” Ruby made a gesture to leave.

Ashe quickly stopped Ruby, half-truthfully said: "How could I cheat you, you can be regarded as a well-know acquaintance I know in Wangcheng, I naturally won't let you do such a difficult task as assassinating nobles. Please. What I said just now was a little hasty, but what I actually want you to do is to help me hold back the great magician enshrined by the count."

Hearing Ashe's seemingly sincere words, Ruby sneered in her heart.That's right, what Aixi said was indeed the truth, but she was sure that if she hadn't heard the trap in Aixi's previous words, Aixi would definitely make the mistake, let herself kill the count, and then push all the blame on herself, lightly Sitting comfortably as a victim of the 'unfortunate' death of her husband.

Realizing that things would not be so simple, Ruby declined calmly, "I'm just a junior swordsman, and I can't even resist a small fireball from a great magician. I've only heard of that kind of character. With a wave of his hand, I don't even have ashes left, I don't dare to commit suicide, you'd better find someone else to help."

Ashe curled her lips, and said disdainfully: "Who are you bluffing, Ruby? The story of the young master of the Anderson family being deflated by a maid has been spread in the noble circles of Wangcheng. As soon as I heard the name Ruby, I knew it was you." , I didn't expect you to hide very deeply. In Norman City, I didn't know that there was a master figure hidden beside me. That's why I hate you guys who like to hide your real strength the most. It's interesting to pretend in front of mediocre people like us Wasn't it great to see me proud at the banquet? You must think that this little girl is really ignorant, and she's just ashamed to show off her talent, so you'll die laughing when you go back."

Of course Ashe didn't know that Ruby didn't hide her strength at all at that time. Of course, even if she knew, she wouldn't believe that someone could cross two great realms in just two years and be promoted all the way from a junior swordsman to a great swordsman. This kind of sensational news, not to mention Ashe, anyone who hears it will think that the person who said this is dreaming. If promotion is so easy, there will not be so few senior professionals on the mainland.

I didn't expect so many people to know about Darren's provocation.Finding that she couldn't afford it, Ruby said helplessly: "I admit that I can deal with that great magician, but why did you come to me? The Assassin's Guild is more reassuring, isn't it?"

Ashe smiled wryly and said: "Assassin's guild is naturally the best choice, but they don't accept credit, asking them to deal with a great magician requires at least a thousand gold coins, and I have to wait until I kill the earl to pay for it. Let them do it." Remuneration, although I only need to pay half of the deposit before the assassination is successful, I still can't afford it."

Dare to find herself because of poverty, Ruby rubbed her face, not knowing how to react: "I don't understand, Earl is very cruel, he is a devil to women, but to you who want to cultivate A guy who is desperate for resources, this kind of cruelty is not unbearable, why do you have to kill him?"

"You don't know yet, do you? I already have the earl's child, a healthy boy, and he is one year old now." Ashe opened her mouth and dropped a bomb, and then watched Ruby's horrifying words with great interest. expression.

'If I remember correctly, Ashe is two years younger than Meyer, so she was pregnant when she was 15? 'Although she knew that this was the normal state of the world, Ruby still couldn't accept it in her heart.

But knowing that Ashe gave birth to a child, it is understandable why she asked her to cooperate, because it is related to the issue of inheritance rights.

Although the Earl's four women are all wives who are being married by the media, the eldest wife is the main wife, and the other wives are concubine. When the eldest wife has a son, the children born to other wives have to stand aside.Now Ai Xi has a boy, and the eldest lady has not yet conceived. If this state continues, Ai Xi's son can inherit all the earl's property when he grows up—including titles, connections, and other things that cannot be measured by money.However, the eldest lady is still young, and the earl has the ability to continue to have children. If the eldest lady gives birth to a son, Ashe's child will only be able to scoop up some leftovers, and the ambitious Ashe will naturally not be satisfied.

No, Ashe doesn't care about children that much. When she mentioned her children, she didn't have the kind of love a mother has for her children.

Thinking of this, Ruby said in surprise: "I still underestimated your ambition. It seems that the resources provided by the earl can no longer satisfy you. The reason why you want to kill the earl is because you want to take full control of the child when he is young. The resources of the Earl's Mansion are for your cultivation, but in fact, you don't care what will happen to the Earl's Mansion after this, nor do you care about the future of your children."

When Ruby explained her intentions, Ashe was not angry. She picked up the wine glass full of red wine, raised her neck and drank it in one gulp, then blushed and said quietly: "So what? I am I slept with that dead old man for the sake of profit. What do I have to do with the life and death of the child born under such circumstances? I have known since I was a child that the world speaks by fists, and if there is no strength, there is no right to speak. In order to gain strength, Not to mention a child I didn’t like very much, I can bear to do it even with a sincere sister, don’t you know this? Not to mention that I just use my dear son to seek some benefits for myself, at least I After giving him life, it is only natural to give me something in return.”

"Ai Xi, you're drunk." Ruby frowned. She didn't want to hear Ai Xi pour out her heart. Stop that great magician, but never get involved in your family's affairs, if you think it's okay, tell me the time to do it, I don't want to chat with you for a day."

Ai Xi giggled, shaking the wine glass with a little liquid left over to Ruby's side, leaning over and sticking to Ruby's shoulder, not caring that most of her snow-white breasts were exposed.She put her lips close to Ruby's ear, whispered a moment, and she could faintly smell the aroma of wine.

People and wives are not ordinary. Ashe's every move is full of temptation. Her innocent face is paired with dissolute behaviors that are inconsistent with her age. She is contradictory but shows a different style. If she is a man, she must not say anything Pushing her down, no wonder the earl could be coaxed to have a son with her, Ruby sighed.

Knowing the time to do it, Ruby didn't have the desire to continue entangled with Ashe, so she got up and said goodbye.Ai Xi didn't stop her, she ate and drank the dishes on the table, and at the same time called the retreating servants to come in to serve.

Ruby exited the box, and hurriedly wanted to find Meyer and the others in the hotel.Before Ruby and Ashe left, they made an agreement with Meyer to let Meyer and Sylvie go shopping first, and when they are tired from shopping, they will go to the hotel with the wind chime at the entrance of North Street to rest, so if there is no accident, they will stay in the hotel can find them.

Ruby hurried, not wanting to bump into a maid around the corner.The maid is Ashe's personal maid. Hearing Ashe's call, she was about to go in to serve, but she became dizzy and accidentally bumped into Ruby.

The maid is a very normal person, the result of colliding with Ruby can only be that she is knocked down, and Ruby is still upright and fine.Seeing the maid in the green skirt slump down hard, Ruby was very sorry and reached out to give her a hand.

"I'm sorry, it's because I didn't see the way." The maid hurriedly bowed and apologized after standing upright. The girl in front of her was an old acquaintance of the madam, and she was of the same class as the madam, so she dared not offend her.

"It's okay, the corner is originally a blind spot of vision. If I apologize, I, a professional with higher perception than you, should apologize." Ruby waved her hand to express that she didn't mind. If she returned to the earth, her current body could directly resist shells. , and now she has not yet fully grasped the power of this body, she was afraid that the collision would injure others, so she turned on the detection skill to see if there were any hidden injuries from the collision, this made her see the problem .

The health bar on the top of the maid in the green skirt is 3 (current blood volume)/4 (total blood volume), which is nearly one-third empty. The status column shows that she is in a state of dark wounds and continues to lose blood, which is about 0.001 per day. If it is ignored, the maid will die weakly due to hidden injuries within a year at most.

But this wasn't the reason for Ruby's collision. Combining with the ambiguous marks on the maid's neck, Ruby understood the reason after careful thought.Ashe is a shrewd person, even if she voluntarily married the earl for the benefit, she didn't want to treat herself badly, so she recruited beautiful maids to be by her side, and let the maids replace herself when she didn't want to serve the earl.The maid was the daughter of a poor family, so naturally she did not dare to resist the earl and his wife's despotic power, she submissively endured the abuse of her body, even if there was endless pain, she could only grit her teeth and endure it.

After knowing the reason, Ruby sighed in her heart, she patted the maid on the shoulder calmly, and took advantage of the brief contact to secretly send a healing technique into the maid's body, quietly refilling her blood bar, By the way, she also healed her dark wounds.In this way, the maid will not lose blood every day in the future, and her weakness and dizziness will be cured with the full blood bar.

The maid was startled suddenly by Ruby's sudden slap. She thought that Ruby had repented and wanted to teach her a lesson. Unexpectedly, there was no pain as imagined, but she felt much lighter.She shook her head in doubt, thinking that it might be her own illusion, she simply left it alone and went to serve Ashe.
