Chapter 208 Don’t Die Before Me
Roya's words did not have a good effect. Esther's eyes were still filled with sadness, and she said nothing.
Seeing Esther like this, Roya said, "Well, in fact, you can also notice that I actually have a special physique. Whether your curse can work on me is another matter."
Roya's words were half true and half false. He himself did not know whether he could be immune to Esther's curse.
Hearing Roya say this, Esther's expression became hesitant. Esther raised her eyes and looked into Roya's eyes. Roya blinked and smiled at Esther.
Roya's smile was very beautiful. The boy's facial features were handsome, and coupled with a soft smile, Esther could not help but feel absent-minded.
With the same blonde hair and dazzling eyes, the boy's figure gradually overlapped with hers.
Esther closed her eyes and seemed to see her old friend.
That was her first friend. Even after more than a hundred years, she still had not forgotten that person.
Roya did not rush to wait for Esther's reply. He just sat there.
Time passed by little by little, and memories of the past emerged in Esther's mind. When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were already filled with determination.
Esther stood up and reached out to touch Luoya's cheek.
Luoya was slightly stunned, but Esther had already moved her face closer.
Luoya had been in love for a long time, and she knew the intention of Esther's actions very well. This was mostly a sign of preparing to kiss.
If you ask why Luoya knew, it was of course because he often did this to Luo Qixi and others.
The first time he was treated like this by a girl, even Luoya would feel his heartbeat speed up.
But now was not the time to think so much, Luoya wanted to push the girl away.
Just looking up, Luoya's idea disappeared.
The light in the room was bright, and the sun climbed into the house along the window sill, illuminating the small room.
The early morning sun shines on Esther's face. Esther still has a cold expression. The light illuminates Esther's right face. This light is enough to illuminate the whole room, but it cannot illuminate Esther's pretty face. There is a shadow under that delicate face. This shadow is Esther's pain, and these pains also emerge due to the awakening of memory.
Esther's expression makes Roya feel pity. Roya can understand Esther's helplessness.
But the past is over. All Roya can do is to make Esther forget the pain as much as possible.
The warm touch comes from the lips. Esther kisses Roya with the slightly awkward skills.
This is an unprecedented feeling. The numb feeling makes Roya a little dazed.
Soon the lips parted, and Esther's slightly rapid breathing made Roya feel a little heartbeat.
But this feeling soon disappeared, leaving only the residual warmth on the lips and the fragrance on the tip of the teeth.
But now he has an inexplicable idea in his mind.
Oh no, I've really become a lolita complex.
I don't know why I've been having excessive contact with these adult little lolis recently.
Esther reached out and touched Luoya's cheek with her fingers, and said to Luoya with an extremely serious expression: "Master, promise me that you will never die before me."
Esther's solemn words were also the most worrying thing in Esther's heart.
Luoya smiled and reached out to touch Esther's forehead, and the soft hair slid down Luoya's fingers.
Luoya said to Esther: "I won't die so easily."
Esther nodded.
Alice came to wake Luoya up as usual. This time, with yesterday's experience, she did not break in directly, but knocked on the door.
The door opened in response, Luoya had already put on his clothes, and Esther adjusted the wrinkles on his sleeves.
Watching Esther's movements on the bed, Alice's eyelids twitched, and a bad look flashed in her eyes. She looked at Luoya with a look of looking at scum and said, "You can't be so hungry that you don't even let go of your contracted elves."
Roya looked at Esther who was already wearing shoes and preparing to get out of bed, and said seriously, "What's the problem?"
"What's the problem? It's a big problem, right?" Alice was speechless.
Esther walked forward, walked to Luoya's side, grabbed Luoya's sleeve, cast his eyes on Alice, and said, "This is how I get along with my master."
Just one sentence, Alice was blocked from talking. Alice opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but finally just sighed, nodded and said, "Okay, let's eat."
Bread, milk and fried eggs were placed on the table. This was a very standard Western breakfast. Luoya sat aside, raised his knife and fork, and swallowed the food.
Although the ingredients were not expensive, fortunately, Alice's cooking skills were superb, and the taste was quite good.
After they finished eating, Roya and Esther waved goodbye to Alice.
I made an appointment with Claire last night to hone their tacit understanding, so Claire asked to practice together.
Roya did not refuse and agreed. The meeting place this time was at the door of Linslet's dormitory.
The destination of the practice was the elemental spirit world, which was not only open to elves, but also humans.
And this practice was actually very formal, because it was a group competition organized by the Elf Academy of Alessia.
With the competition, there will naturally be a ranking order, and the ranking of this competition, in fact, to a certain extent, has already determined which teams can participate in the Elf Sword Dance Festival.
Neither Claire nor Linslet is weak, but neither of them has formed a team, so the ranking is naturally very low. Although not at the bottom, it is also in the lower middle.
The abilities of the elves are all kinds of strange. As long as there is a mature team, even if the elves in the team are very mediocre, it is still possible to defeat Claire, who is two or three levels higher than them.
This is why the Elf Academy of Alessia requires each team to hone their team's tacit understanding.
In team competitions, what is tested is not the individual's strength, but the tacit understanding of the team.
After all, not everyone can be like Roya, who can directly pull out a large part of the strength of the elves.
Linslet's dormitory was not far away. Although it was the Raven Class, the Raven Class dormitory was no different from the Weasel Class dormitory. After walking for a while, they arrived at Linslet's door. Roya hesitated for a while and knocked on the door. Roya thought that the maid he had seen before would open the door this time.
But to Roya's surprise, a crisp voice came from the house: "I'm here."
This voice was Linslet's voice. The girl seemed to be busy with something. Footsteps soon came from the entrance. The door was opened. Linslet's delicate face came into view. Linslet was slightly stunned when she saw Roya, and a little blush appeared on her face.
Linslet stepped aside to make way and looked behind Roya, as if looking for another target.
The red-haired girl who liked to quarrel with Linslet in the past was not there, which made Linslet feel a little regretful.
After the regret, Linslet felt nervous.
This was her first time communicating with a boy. Although she had met him once before, Linslet still felt nervous being alone in a room.
Roya smiled at Linslet. Noticing her nervousness, Roya joked, "I'm not going to eat people, don't worry."
Roya walked into the room, and Esther followed behind him. She nodded to Linslet. With Esther's unique cold face, the little Loli said to Linslet in a flat tone, "I'm coming in."
Linslet was flattered and quickly replied, "It's a great honor to see the legendary Demon-Slaying Holy Sword. There's no such thing as disturbing or not disturbing."
Linslet's words made Esther feel very comfortable. No one doesn't like compliments. As long as it's not flattering the horse's hoof, many people will accept the other party's compliments with a smile.
Roya began to look around the room. The dormitories were of the same specifications, but there were some differences in the layout.
The room was very tidy, everything was cleaned up, even better than Alice's room.
Luo Ya sat on the sofa and asked curiously: "Where is the maid? The maid named Carol."
Linslet pointed to the room next to her and said casually: "Carol? She is still sleeping. I called her several times, but she didn't get up."
Luo Ya fell into silence.
Why didn't Carol, the maid, call Linslet, the master, to get up, but was urged to get up by Linslet?
Looking at the food on the table, Luo Ya asked curiously: "Did you make this?"
Linslet nodded, with a matter-of-fact expression on her face. She said: "As a perfect daughter, cooking is a matter of course."
The food looks good. Although it may not be as good as Alice's craftsmanship, it can be seen that Linslet has also put a lot of effort in this aspect.
But this is too strange, right?
Luo Ya looked at the spotless floor and asked hesitantly, "This, isn't it also your usual housework?"
Linslet still nodded.
Luo Ya became interested and asked curiously, "What does Carol usually do? Shouldn't she do these simple things? Why are you doing these?"
Linslet asked puzzledly, "What are you talking about? Carol doesn't need to do these. As the master, shouldn't I take care of the servant? Besides, these housework will make her fingers rough, so let me do this kind of thing."
There are so many complaints that Luo Ya doesn't know how to complain.
The master is more like a servant than the servant, and the servant is more like a master than the master.
This is completely the opposite of the heaven.
Ester cast a fixed gaze at Luo Ya, and Luo Ya knocked the little loli's head in annoyance.
Perhaps because Luo Ya and Linslet talked too loudly, Carol rubbed her eyes and walked out of the room.
Seeing Roya and Esther sitting in the living room, Carol was slightly startled, but compared to the daughters of other colleges, Carol seemed much more indifferent.
She found a seat and sat down directly.
Linslet said unhappily: "Carol, you are too slow, the food is cold."
Carol sighed, yawned and said: "Master, I haven't slept enough."
Linslet taught: "You have to eat, you can continue to sleep after eating."
Carol had no choice but to respond: "Okay."
After that, she picked up the food on the table and began to eat it in small bites.
Linslet brewed two pots of black tea and handed them to the two.
Roya tasted it and found the black tea a bit bitter, with a hint of sweetness in the bitterness. Roya was not used to drinking black tea, so he just took a few sips and stopped drinking.
Esther was simpler. She only took a sip from the beginning to the end of the cup, then frowned and ignored the remaining tea in the cup.
Linslet saw the actions of the two people and began to ask them if they needed some sugar.
Both of them rejected Linslet's proposal. Roya and Esther's rejection hit Linslet hard. Linslet thought that she had not treated the guests well.
After chatting for a while, Carol ran back to her room to take a nap after dinner.
Roya thought that the other party was just talking, but she didn't expect that this was really her daily life with Linslet.
Chatting with Linslet, most of Linslet's questions were about asking for information about Esther.
Roya just casually said some simple information about Esther.
As they were chatting, there was a knock on the door.
Linslet had as few friends as Claire, so Claire was the only one knocking at the door.
Linslet went to open the door, and the first person she saw was Claire.
The two looked at each other and snorted at the same time.
Linslet said, "Too slow, Claire."
Claire said dissatisfiedly, "Do you have any objections?"
Linslet said with an unhappy look, "What do you mean? You are late but your attitude is so bad."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Roya rubbed his eyebrows and stopped them, saying helplessly, "Let's go, don't waste time anymore."
In the Elf Forest, a group of people shuttled through the forest path. Next to Claire, Linslet followed Claire closely, and the two quarreled with each other.
Roya walked behind the two, and Esther held Roya's hand. In order to match Roya's pace, he jumped up a little and took a step forward. Esther's movements were like a kitten, which made Roya feel interesting.
The sparring team has been found, and the two teams went to the Elf Forest together, with the team leader in charge in the middle.
The team leader was named Freya, who separated the two teams. She walked in the middle and looked back at Roya and Esther, and said casually: "If you want to participate in the Elf Sword Dance Festival, you must gather a team of five people. Why do you only have three people?"
Roya explained: "It's just that we haven't gathered enough people yet. Besides, isn't it said that even if the team hasn't gathered enough people, they can still participate in the competition arranged by the academy?"
