I was nestled in bed, hugging the rolled up quilt.
I cannot tell my grievances to anyone, and I do not dare to have any temper in front of the master.
The only thing I can do is to keep pounding the quilt and secretly complain to my master in my heart.
Why does the master refuse to open my mind reading? Why does she tell me to go back and think about it whenever I talk about this topic?
What the hell does she want to think about? I just need an answer from my master.
The resentment gradually subsided, and the mind calmed down.
What did I say to my master at that time?
The cheeks burned up again. I seemed to tell my matser to stop treating me like a child or something. I had sworn in my heart that I would take things slowly step by step, but I said it on impulse.
But it is not bad. At least, the master will not treat me as child in the future. After all, I have told the master about my mind in my heart.
I think back to my master's light smiling face. When the master heard my almost confessional words, she did not become nervous. I can not help but guess whether the master already knows what I was thinking.
I shook my head. No.
The master has always been good at disguise, so does the master pretend to be calm in front of me?
I was constantly asking for tenderness from my master under her indulgence. I thought that she would agree to my caprice every time, so that I dared to break through the blockage of my status to say out my thoughts in my heart. But if I think about it the other way around, I consider that the master also needs to have time to think about it.
Yes, the master's words about going back and thinking about it may not just be for me to think about it, but she herself needs to think about it too.
Yes, this must be the case. So the master did not refuse me.
I rolled around in bed with the blanket, and my mood changed from dark clouds to clear skies.
The master can't get rid of me anyway. I still have time to spend with her, and my words can't be retracted. So now the master has known my thoughts in my mind. As long as the master does not punish me, I will keep approaching her. To make the master convey her real thoughts to me, I must first convey my real thoughts to the master too. One day, I will impress my master.
I like my master the most ...
After reading ten times that I like my master the most, I then go to sleep.
I got up early the next morning.
I ran to the city master's kitchen before the sun came up. I urged the cooks to hurry up and make breakfast. I even took the job of the maids who used to serve the master. I guessed that it was about time for the master to get up, so I carried the pastry in one hand and the water basin in the other and headed for the master's room.
At the door of my master's room, I thought about how to knock.
My knee gently pressed against the door and I found that I could push it open.
"Good morning, master."
Sitting at the table in the middle of the room and seeing me, the master smiled slightly and nodded. I put the things on the table.
Without waiting for the master to call me I sat across from the master shamelessly.
The master cast a look of surprise, but did not reproach me. She then averted her eyes to have her breakfast.
And I was happy in my heart, and felt the sweetness in my chest.
I recalled that when I was living with my master, I was beaten for not kneeling down in front of my master.
When I think about it, I can figure out why the master was so strict with me at the beginning. But then the master slowly relaxed the requirements for me. It must have been Heath Relia who advised the master.
Now, more than half a year has passed and I can sit in front of my master without her permission. And I can even hug her without being asked if Cross is still there.
I was no longer careful to worry about what I was doing was not in line with my status. Anyway, the master would not blame me. The master has said that I should not be bound by my status.
So I propped up my chin and watched my master eat her breakfast happily.
The master used a fork to fork a piece of white pastry, staring at the piece of pastry in a pensive manner. She then looked up at me with a very puzzled expression.
"What's wrong?"
I just smiled.
"Nothing. Because master is beautiful, I can't control my gaze that wants to look at master."
"Hmm."
The master continued with her breakfast, her face unchanged.
But it's good that the master is not angry. As long as the master shows a slight look of dissatisfaction, I'll immediately turn back into a good maid. If the master is okay with it, I'll be a little more shameless.
In my gaze, the master finished eating breakfast calmly.
"You can bring out the water."
After the master put the towel in her hand down the water basin, I obediently walked over to pick it up. And then I walked in the direction of the door, turned my head to look at the master reluctantly. When I saw the master's calm face I felt a little deflated out of the room.
At noon, the master was working, and I was too embarrassed to bother her.
And I also have my own business. I headed for the city master's cell.
Looking at Minnis increasingly weak body, the muffled sound of the heavy cell door can not even knock her awake. Her thin body was hanging on the cross.
For the past two days she was unwilling to eat any food. No matter what hellish punishment she suffered, she was unwilling to submit to.
The stinking body had long since dissipated her original beauty, and her golden hair had turned yellow.
"Wipe her body clean."
I ordered to the servant behind her.
"Yes."
Then they dabbed wet towels and wiped Minnis' blood-black body a little bit, and Minnis seemed to wake up because she felt the warmth. But she didn't have much resistance.
The stains faded a little, leaving only the shocking scars.
I had found a healing magician to treat her injuries on her body , so that she won’t lose too much blood and die.
I began to admire her deeply in my heart. She can endure so much torture not to bow to the demons, and I am ashamed of myself.
When my fingers were just broken, I was painful to kneel and beg the master to let me go.
But...now I won't be afraid of pain after that torture.
I saw Minnis shivering in the cold, so I asked someone to tie her a thin prison clothes. But in the cold cell this clothing does not help.
It was not for her to protect her from the cold, but to cover her.
"You guys can leave. And bring it here when you are ready."
"Yes."
The servants bowed their heads and left from the cell.
I had seen how strong Minnis was. But if I continued torturing her, she might only die.
I looked at her with a bit of emotion. Indeed I can't compare with her. I had to rack my brain when I tortured her to think how to keep her from dying while she was suffering. So I'm not on the same level as her when it comes to pain. Because I can heal myself, at least the master does not think about whether I will die when she tortures me.
"Minnis."
I called out to her as softly as possible.
But in return, she glared at me with unconcealed hatred and disgust in her gaze.
This surprised me a little. The cruelty I did was obviously lighter than the master, and I would treat her gently afterwards. But why was it different from my initial reaction?
"Why do you insist? Don't worry. As long as you submit to me, I will protect you, and you don't need to worry about who will hurt you in the Demon Kingdom."
"I do wonder why you are so insistent on persuading me to submit."
"Because you are a human and I want to make friends with you."
"Make friends?" She suddenly burst out laughing, "Are you kidding me? You do this to me and you still want me to make friends with you? Yiluodiya , are you an idiot?"
Clenching my fist, a deep sense of frustration sank into my heart.
Speaking as if I really want to make friends with her, I just try to speak gently to impress her.
"Do you know it? What you do to us humans and every human city you invade, we humans are nothing in your eyes after a defeat. Plundering doesn’t have any mercy. And do you know how cruel the historical Yiluodiya was? At least 700,000 humans died at her hands. No, the exact number is estimated to be more than this, or maybe there is no exact numbers. Do you know how many cities Yiluodiya slaughtered? And every time, she made our humans alive, so as to let all humans know her evil deeds, do you know how humiliating for us humans?"
It was like this...Every time when I watched Yiluodiya abuse humans madly, humans were powerless to fight back.
"I know...but it wasn't me."
"Whether it was you or not, you are Yiluodiya, the public enemy of our all humans. And you are no different from what is described in the history books. You are a psychopathic murderer, a vicious, inhuman demon. How dare you say you were once human! Ridiculous."
The heart is a little heavy. Do humans really hate me so much? But the last Yiluodiya is already dead. Why is she still putting all the blame on me for what she did?
Hearing her reprimand, I also feel slightly guilty. After all, I was once a human, but now I must kill all humans for the demons.
"Is it really impossible for the demon race and humans to reconcile?"
"Reconciliation? Unless you are killed by us humans, the demons bow down to us humans forever, and the demons can never make Yiluodiya again. Hehe...let's not talk about these impractical things. With the warlike nature of the demons, do you think they are willing to make peace with humans? Or do you think the hatred of history can be laxly released just by a few negotiations?"
"Why not? The demon kingdom has gone through reforms, and they are also willing to reconcile.But the demon king who proposed reconciliation was killed by you humans."
"Joke. Can one reform change the nature of the demons? Just that demon king of that generation wanted peace, and they died? Will the next one demon king think the same way? The fact proves how brutal the next one is. Speaking of your Demon King, I think she is the trashiest Demon King ever. Huh ...As long as we humans can get through it, the Demon Kingdom under this system will collapse sooner or later, and then we humans will naturally win without a fight."
"No! Our demon king became like this and you humans are the culprit. Do you know what the current Demon King was like as a child? It's because of you humans that she became cruel!"
Unable to bear her insult to the master I yelled.
"Crap, don't think she's the only one who's pathetic."
However, Minnis had no fear at all, instead, she mocked me contemptuously.
It's really too infuriating. I didn't expect city lord of Sirene City to say bad words.
"Just wait, I will definitely take the human empire before the demon kingdom collapses. And by then our demon kingdom will definitely reform."
The master is not that stupid.
Minnis sneered, hanging on the cross and bowing her head, as if saying that I do not want to care about you idiot.
I just stood, watched her and waited until the servant came in.
"Lord Yiluodiya, I almost arrive. Besides, the Lord demon king is here."
The master is coming too?
"Hmm."
I stepped forward and ruffled Minnis's hair, staring earnestly at her face.
"You still have close people, right? Family members or something?"
Her golden pupils instantly widened and she looked up at me in horror.
