After My Enemy Finds Out I'm a Succubus [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 19 The Tower of Imprisonment
In the end, Luke did not offer to change his clothes.
It's too much trouble, and the dress really fits.
He verbally satirized Lance a few words, and Lance responded as usual, with a very correct attitude, but who knows if he will dare to do so next time.
When Luke returned Xia Zuo's clothes, Xia Zuo glared at the master and servant who wore the same clothes with different temperaments, his eyes were straight.
"Your clothes are too baggy, I just settle for the next best thing." Luke said in a normal tone, "It's just clothes, Xia Zuo, don't act like a three-year-old who has been robbed of his doll."
At this time, the rain had stopped, and the nobles thought the carriage was stuffy, so they got on their horses one after another, and accompanied the convoy to move forward slowly.Luke rode the evil spirit side by side with Xia Zuo, while Lance walked below and led his horse.
The scene is very harmonious.
Xia Zuo's gaze flickered between them, and he couldn't believe it: "Luke, about your 'new lover'... those rumors can't be true."
Of course not.
Luke shrugged his shoulders in his heart, and said not too concerned, "Maybe."
Xia Zuo stared at Lance's back with a solemn expression.
"What's the matter?" Luke felt a little strange, "It's not that I didn't have a lover before, and I didn't see you care so much."
"It's not the same." Xia Zuo shook his head, "I don't like the look in his eyes."
What's more, the best friend and this new lover are too close.Sometimes Xia Zuo even felt that his unique place in Luke's heart had been taken away.
"Really? I think his eyes are pretty." Luke said.
In fact, he can understand Xia Zuo very well.
Lance's eyes are less like slaves, more like gods, forcing those who look at him to submit to him.People with keen senses will only instinctively feel threats and fears in the face of such gazes.
Not everyone has such a strange penchant for blasphemy as Luke did.
"Your taste has changed so quickly. This kind of hard..." Xia Zuo pursed his lips, and grasped it twice with the palm of his hand. "It's not easy to hug at all, it's very boring."
Luke couldn't help smiling, and looked at Lance who was leading the horse silently.
I don't know what he would think when he heard the comment of "not easy to hug"?
"Maybe there's something special about it." Luke joked lightly while paying attention to Lance's reaction.
--no response.
Sensing his sight, Lance turned his head to look at him, and said gently, "Your Highness, is the 'evil spirit' walking too fast?"
There was no humiliation or displeasure on his face.
God of light, Luke thought, when will he be able to read his mind and see what is going on under this beautiful face that has not changed for thousands of years?
He was slandering, when he suddenly heard Xia Zuo say: "Look, we are here."
Following the direction of the red-haired nobleman's finger, Luke saw several towering spiers.
The style of Shenghonglin Summer Palace is completely different from that of the royal palace. It is as sharp and solitary as steel, and under several watchtowers is a majestic castle.
"Isn't it great?" Xia Zuo said eagerly in his eyes, "The Summer Palace of Shenghonglin was rebuilt from an armed castle. The 'Lionheart King' once led knights to fight bravely here. Conquered a vast expanse of the No Man's Land."
"Your Highness Luke," his eyes flickered, "this is the place where our ancestors fought side by side with blood."
The smell of iron and blood from hundreds of years ago seems to still remain in the wind.
Looking at the majestic castle, Luke felt his mouth dry for a while.
...If you can ascend to the throne, if you can defend your own territory, if all peoples submit, if all nations come to court...
He heard his own rapid heartbeat.
Lance, Xia Zuo, Angelo, and Aphra are all good supporters.With their help, the increasingly decayed and weakened Holy Council will return to the peak of glory, and any foreign country that dares to despise her will pay the price.
"That's great." Luke said softly.
The horses moved forward slowly, lost the cover of the dense forest, and the entire Shenghonglin Summer Palace revealed his true face.
Among them, a very high stone tower stands in the city wall. It is taller than all the watchtowers, and the top of the tower seems to be pierced into the sky.
"What's that?" Luke suddenly felt uneasy.
"The famous Yaoguang Pagoda." Xia Zuo said, "named after the seventh star of the Big Dipper, it is the tallest astrology tower in the mainland. It is said that as long as the only entrance is guarded, no one can enter the top floor of the tower—not even the Pope, who is as powerful as the Pope. "
As he narrated, Luke's body gradually stiffened.
Before he came here, he had no idea that the "Yaoguang Pagoda" was actually in the Shenghonglin Summer Palace!
Yes, famous and invulnerable - the little prince in the book was imprisoned here in the end!
Luke held his forehead, and real pictures flickered in his mind.
The cold stone walls, the scarlet canopy, the chains hanging on the ankles forever...
Xia Zuo was still eloquently introducing Xia Gong, Lance looked back at Luke if he felt something.
Luke's empty eyes moved to meet his gaze.
In those purple eyes, Lance caught a strange fear and guard.
"Your Highness?" He was slightly taken aback.
"Let go of me." Luke said in a low voice.
As soon as Lance let go of his hand, Luke raised his four hooves and galloped forward.There was a chaotic whoosh behind him, but he didn't care about anything.
When the "evil spirit" ran away, no one could catch up with him on horseback.
The wind blew across his cheek quickly, and Luke galloped for a while, gradually calming down.
And there's nothing terrible about it.With Lancelot in his hands, they have a contract with the God of Light, and everything will change.
But why at that moment just now, the picture about Yaoguang Pagoda was so realistic?
It was so realistic that his hair stood on end, he almost couldn't catch his breath, and he did such a childish and impulsive thing as "run away".
Luke did obtain part of the memory of the original owner, but the memory of the past should not include the "future that has not yet happened".
That might be his imagination.
——Or, the things in the book have already happened, and the time he is in is the "second time"?
Whether those pictures are memory or imagination, if you have a chance, you must go to the Yaoguang Pagoda to verify.
Luke's gaze hardened.
This body is instinctively afraid, but Luke will not escape, he will face the fear, conquer the fear, and use the fear for himself—whether it is Lancelot or Yaoguang Tower.
He reined in his horse and ran towards the convoy.
Tsk, I ran too fast just now, I hope there will be no chaos.
Just as he was thinking so, a figure of one man and one rider came running from the end of his sight, and Xia Zuo's red hair fluttered in the green forest.
"Finally caught up!" He was panting, his face full of worry and annoyance, "Why did you go crazy just now? Do you know how dangerous this forest is?"
Luke glanced behind him: "Lance didn't come?"
"Why did he come?" Xia Zuo said, "Not only can't he come, he might be punished... Hey Luke, what are you in a hurry for? Wait for me!"
The Duke of Fromens rode on a tall horse, looking down at Lance from a height.
"Is this slave disturbing His Majesty Luke's horse?" He asked slowly.
The powerful palace minister was around 50 years old, with gray hair, dark gray pupils that were hard to see, and the whites of his eyes were cloudy and yellow.Unlike the muddle-headed king and grand prince, he looks like the real ruler.
The crowd fell silent.
At the scene of the incident, Xia Zuo Cecil immediately chased after him, and the other two prince guards who witnessed the whole process only said, "Lance was with His Royal Highness at the time", which fell into the mouth of the Duke of Fromens, but became Lance Deliberately murdered the royal family.
But they dare not refute.
Who would dare to speak up to someone the palace minister wanted to kill?Don't say that you don't want the head on your head, and even your relatives will be implicated.
Although Lance is kind, he is just a high-ranking lover in Israel after all, so there is no need to take risks for him... I don't know why the Duke of Fromens would want to kill a mere lover?
But Lance was so brave that he wasn't afraid at all.
The silver-haired servant stood firmly in front of the ruler with an indifferent expression, as if lowering his eyes was his greatest respect for the powerful.
There was a hint of worry in his eyes, but that worry didn't seem to be about his own situation, but for something else.
"Why don't you kneel when you see the Prime Minister?!" The guards around the Duke of Fromens shouted.
Lance was lost in thought and didn't respond.
The guard was annoyed and kicked him hard on the knee. Lance didn't move at all, but blinked his eyelashes as if awakened.
The guard was startled.
He used [-]% of his strength in that kick, even a well-trained soldier would be kicked down, how could an undefended slave...
Furious, he swung his whip and whipped it at Lance with all his strength.
The whip broke through the air like a sound of wind and thunder, but it fell into one hand lightly and lightly like a tamed beast.
Lance held the whip and pulled it lightly, and the long whip shook off the guard and fell into his control.He spoke the first words since Luke left.
"His Highness said that without his permission, no one has the right to leave traces on this body."
Lance belatedly felt a dull pain in his calf, which might have started to bruise.
"It was my mistake just now." He apologized.
I don't know who I'm apologizing to.
"Disobedient." The Duke of Fromens said coldly, "It seems that St. Martin's Abbey didn't teach you what obedience is."
"I belong to His Highness Luke, and I obey him, not you, Your Excellency." Lance said indifferently, "I will wait until His Highness comes down to deal with me, and I am willing to accept any punishment."
"Your crime may make him never come back." Duke Fromens said.
Lance raised his eyes to look directly at the Duke, his emerald green eyes were calm and determined.
"He'll be back."
Duke Fromens frowned gradually.
His hunch was right, Winston's descendants had to.The young man, though not in the slightest resemblance to old Duke Winston, was more dangerous than the dead man.
Before the order to kill on the spot was issued, a sound of horseshoes came from far and near, and the silent crowd became noisy again.
"I didn't expect the Duke of Fromens to have such a hobby." The visitor said with a flirtatious voice, "That's my lover, what are you looking at?"
Lance turned his head and saw Luke coming slowly on a black horse. The crowd gave way before him like a boat splitting the waves.
The boy's chest was still heaving violently, and he himself was not as calm as his voice sounded.
"Your Highness, that's the Duke of Fromens." The butler advised in a low voice, "It's better to be more polite."
"Oh." Luke pouted, looking a little better.
He lifted his well-behaved and harmless face, and smiled politely at the Duke of Fromens.
"Please close your dog eyes," he said with a smile, "My 'Dear' Duke."
It's too much trouble, and the dress really fits.
He verbally satirized Lance a few words, and Lance responded as usual, with a very correct attitude, but who knows if he will dare to do so next time.
