Iris didn't dare to ask further, just in case she said the wrong thing and then was punished by this stinky Bitch, Lilia.

"Why don't you say anything, is there something on your mind? Say it to me, I am not an outsider."

Iris chose to be silent, not really wanting to talk to Lilia.

"Come on! You are my daughter, and it is my duty as a mother to help you with your worries."

"Come on." Lilia urged.

"Shit! Are you fucking tired of this? You've got me in this mess, and are you here to help me? I am fine alone. After three days, I can go to the best magic school to learn magic, and you just come to give me trouble, and damn to play mother-daughter game with you. You are simply a stinky bitch!!!" Iris vented all of her dissatisfaction.

Lilia could forgive what Iris said the first few sentences, but the last one said by Iris, "a stinker bitch," made Lilia hard to forgive her.

"Kneel down!" Lilia ordered in a tone of voice that would not be denied.

"Bitch! I've never knelt for anyone in my life. Who wants to be your daughter? I don’t want to be .I’ve never kneeled for anyone before in my life. So why should I kneel for a guy who hasn't even grown hair?"

"Additional-weakness!" Lilia silently recited the magic spell.

Soon after, Iris collapsed limply and weakly on the bed, wondering why her body had become so powerless.

"You’d better shut up, which made you be cute! The next thing I say, you must abide by it later, or a harsher punishment will greet you. Listen carefully! You mustn’t say anything dirty and indecent. You must be polite. You must listen to me. Is that clear?"

Iris didn't even have the strength to speak, and could only look at Lilia viciously.

"What are you looking at? It seems that you are not listening to me!"

A small purple man leapt in the palm of Lilia's hand constantly.

"Zilla! Zilla!" The little purple man sat beside Iris, touching her torso from time to time.

A itchy sensation came over Iris, with the number of times the purple man touched me, the itchy sensation turned into a prickling sensation.

"Ask you again, do you hear me clearly?"

Iris did not answer.

Lilia waved her hand, signaling the purple man to continue.

Iris's heart ached and she could not breathe hardly as if ten thousand alpacas ran towards her. She would like to express it, but she did not even have the strength to speak.

She was a little out of breath, and a strong burning pain invaded her whole body.

At this moment, when Lilia realized that Iris had been inflicted a weakness spell on her, and she didn't even have the strength to speak.

Then Lilia lifted the weak magic spell of Iris and the touch of the purple man and asked, "Do you understand?"

A series of tears flowed silently down Iris's sickly face, so tortured and occasionally inexplicably twitching. For Iris, Lilia was a vicious a demon.

"I ...... I got it." Iris kept sobbing.

"Em! If you are obedient enough, nothing will happen."

"Come home with me!"

"???" Iris looked at Lilia with her puzzled little eyes.

"Will I stay in the human kingdom?"

"Are you not a human?"

"You didn't listen to a word I just said! And next time, don't use 'you', call me Dear Mother, is that clear?"

Iris hesitated, but gave in.

Lilia lifted her silver hair, revealing slightly sharp ears and then those sharp tiger teeth.

"I am a Blood. And humans and Bloods are enemies. So those filthy humans will hurt you." Lilia explained.

"Bloods??" It seemed that Iris had some more understanding of this world.

"What? Don't you want to come home with me?"

"No! I got into the best magical school, and I don't want to waste this opportunity."

"Puff!" Lilia laughed happily.

"The best school of magic? If you want to learn magic I can teach you. I promise I will teach you magic. Secondly magic is the most basic thing."

Only when Lilia drew a few random lines in the air, flakes of snow began to fall from the house.

"This is the magic array! I can teach you anything you want to learn, and I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer."

Iris agreed without even thinking about it. A satisfactory answer means that you can only comply with the other party's wishes. If you don't give them face, they may give you some punishment, and then ask again until they are satisfied.

"What an obedient and good kid!" With that, Lilia opened the portal and took Iris out of the humble house.

In the blink of an eye, Lilia took Iris to the Scarlet Realm. Surrounded by the thorns and roses stood a castle with the Gothic style. The castle seemed very old, and the high grey walls were overgrown with creepers, which made the castle a little gloomy.

"This is my home, and likewise you home."

It was the first time in Iris’s life that she had seen such a magnificent building, and she was shocked beyond words!

With Lilia, Iris entered the castle. "Dear Majesty!" The maids knelt down and saluted one after another.

"Get up!"

"Dear Majesty, this is ...... beside you," asked the head maid, Candace Carlisle.

"She is my daughter!"

"Dear the Princess!" Candace bowed to Iris.

"Get up...get up!"

"My name is Candace Carlisle. Dear the Princess, you can call me Candace or Head Maid. If Dear the Princess needs anything, just call me."

Iris nodded.

"Dear Majesty! If there is nothing, I will go away."

"Go you way!"

Then Lilia led Iris to a bedroom surrounded by walls carved out of white stone tiles, with roses carved in gold blooming gloriously between the white stones and large red curtains rippling in the wind.

There is the black marble floor, the bright mirror-like tiles, the magnificent crystal chandelier, the pure black scented wood table with glass, the leather reclining chairs, and the exquisite finely carved bookcase in the room. The whole room is gorgeous almost beyond words.

A word "luxury" kept coming to Iris’s mind.

"Iris, Iris!" Lilia patted Iris on the shoulder.

"Eh??"

"Why are you losing your mind? This room will be yours from now on, and I live in the next room. So come to me if you need anything!"

Iris nodded obediently.

Iris never thought in her life that she would be able to live in such a luxurious bedroom, which was like a dream.

The big bed in front of Iris was soft and comfortable, something she didn't even dare to think about.

Half a month ago, Iris was shabby and poor as if she were a sewer rat, getting by stealing and robbing. And now Iris is a Princess of the Blood. Her identity is a quantum leap in status.

When Iris thinks about it, she thinks that it's good to be her daughter, because at least she won't have to worry about food and drink, and she won't have to risk her life to earn Bella, Besides she will be able to learn magic.

The thought of being able to eat and wear warm clothes in the future makes Iris inexplicably happy.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

"Please come in!"

"Dear Princess! Please go and bathe and dress, these are the clothes Dear Majesty has chosen for you." Candace said respectfully.

Iris wanted to refuse, but when she heard that Lilia had chosen it for her, she agreed.

"Dear Princess! Please come with me."

Iris followed Candace to the bathroom, the whole bathroom used white as the main color of the space, and the space added a small amount of gold as a supplement, making the whole space manifest unique noble.

"Dear Princess! The water is ready for you, and if you need me to wash it for you, that's fine, too."

"...No need."

Then Candace waited outside the door, the tub sprinkled with a layer of rose petals that smelled inexplicably soothing.

Iris undressed and soaked in the rose bath, feeling more soothed than ever.

"Is this the treatment of a princess?" Iris grew to love this feeling.

After the bath, Iris looked at the clothes Lilia had picked out for herself and grumbled, "She chose dress for me again ......"

Iris changed into the black Gothic dress anyway, and then walked out of the bathroom.

"Dear Princess! You're wearing the wrong dress, it's better for me to change for you!" Candace smiled.

After a short while, Candace helped Iris change her clothes, "Dear Princess, the girdle is not tight for you, is it?"

"No, it's just fine! Thank you."

" Dear Princess, there is no need to thank you, it is what we should do as maids."
