Chapter 420

The bonfire shone on Su Bai's face and Cinderella's face. Both of their faces were flickering, making it hard for people to see them clearly.

Cinderella's face had returned to its original state, and she still looked pitiful, but in front of Su Bai, she behaved more cautiously than at the beginning.

"So, you already knew that I'm not an Oracle." Su Bai smiled and took the grilled fish down. He tore off a piece of meat and put it in his mouth to chew. Cinderella had brought some salt with her before she left the house. Grilled fish in the wild only had this delicious taste. She only sprinkled some salt on it and didn't add other seasonings, which could maximize the taste of the fish.

"I'm the same as my mother. I'm a Dark Demon. Although I'm one of the most useless races among the dark creatures, I'm still a dark creature. Why would God send an Oracle to help me?"

Cinderella said in a self-deprecating manner. Then, she began to add more firewood to the bonfire. She put another fish on the grill and continued grilling.

Yes, she knew that she was a dark creature. Although she didn't have the strength of a dark creature, the only use of her bloodline was to make her look uglier and more terrifying. Among the dark creatures, her race had a very low status. Women were often snatched away to be used as tools or even food for other races. This was because they were too weak. They were so weak that they were almost no different from ordinary humans.

Therefore, when Su Bai appeared in front of her and showed his "miracle," she didn't believe that Su Bai was an Oracle. However, she didn't mind using Su Bai's power to help her return to a wealthy life. However, it was precisely because of this that she didn't act as herself. Instead, she acted deliberately. She wanted to portray the image of an ordinary but vain girl. However, she didn't expect that she would be seen through by Su Bai.

Of course, this couldn't be helped. After all, Su Bai was a listener. Whether it was in the story world or the real world, scheming against each other and all kinds of precautions were necessary. It could be said that he had honed his skills. Although Cinderella was a Dark Demon, she was essentially a girl who sold her body in exchange for some money to live a better life.

"Hehe." Su Bai laughed.

Now, it seems that Cinderella's stepmother didn't treat her well, and her two sisters also bullied her. It wasn't illogical. According to Cinderella, her mother died when she was very young. When she died, her original appearance was revealed. This matter was also spread at that time. At that time, Cinderella's father didn't treat Cinderella very well. When her stepmother came, she naturally heard about this matter. Since then, she has always regarded Cinderella as an unlucky person.

Thinking back to the story of "Cinderella", a passing crow reminded the prince twice that the bride he was welcoming was fake. Not only did this cause Cinderella's two sisters to cut off their feet to no avail, but in some versions of "Cinderella", the crow even pecked out Cinderella's sister's eyeballs.

It was very likely that Cinderella was hiding behind the scenes and using this method to exact her revenge.

Sigh.

"You don't need to care whether I'm the Oracle or not. I can only tell you one thing now." Su Bai paused and continued, "If I don't get the prince's favor, I won't have a good time. But you will inevitably die. You also saw that someone wanted to kill you today. I can protect you once, but I can't protect you forever."

Cinderella bit her lips, "I know, I will try my best."

Su Bai nodded, "Oh yes, I have something I'm curious about. The prince that you want to attend the banquet, is he the prince of a human kingdom?"

Now that Cinderella was a dark creature, could that prince with a serious foot fetish really be an ordinary perverted human prince?

"He …." Cinderella bit her lips, "He is the prince of the vampires."

"Oh." Su Bai didn't feel surprised and continued to eat his grilled fish.

In other words, this banquet was just a beauty contest among the dark creatures?

The prince of the vampires wanted to recruit beauties. All the female dark creatures, regardless of their clan's strength and status, would try their best to curry favor with the prince and become the princess of the vampires?

If it was a prince with a long lifespan, then this foot fetish would make sense. A long lifespan was indeed enough for one to develop a perverted taste. Moreover, from the story of "Cinderella", one could also find evidence for this. The prince returned several times to choose the real Cinderella, the owner of the crystal shoes, and the woman he loved. Moreover, he sent back the woman with her feet cut off and bleeding over and over again. In fact, he did it twice.

Even when he found Cinderella for the third time, he still calmly let Cinderella try on the crystal shoe.

Was this something that a human prince could do?

A human prince, no matter how extravagant, no matter how perverted, could he calmly face this kind of filthy crime and deception?

Moreover, he would never get tired of it?

If this prince was a prince of the vampires, then it would make sense. As a prince of the vampires, what kind of intrigue, deception, and bloodshed had he not seen before?

In the eyes of this prince of the vampires, cutting off the instep or heel of Cinderella's stepmother and her two daughters was just a very common thing. What did it count as?

"Tomorrow, we will go into the city first and choose some clothes for you." After Su Bai finished speaking, he laid down on the ground. In his mind, he was still thinking about some information from this world.

In the world of fairy tales, it was very difficult to clearly distinguish the specific factions and forces. For example, a dark creature like Cinderella lived with humans and was oppressed and suppressed. However, she did not have the strength to resist. Obviously, not all dark creatures were very powerful and could do evil. This was actually similar to the social class in the real world. In every industry and profession, those who were at the bottom did not have a good life.

In this world of fairy tales, there was something called the Vatican and there were also human countries. However, everyone actually lived in a harmonious way. It was so harmonious that it was difficult for an outsider like Su Bai to understand. However, there was nothing he could do even if he did not understand. He was an outsider, so when in Rome, he had to do as the Romans do.

Prince of the vampires, hehe.

Thinking of the Sanguine Prince who was a foot fetishist, Su Bai subconsciously licked his lips. If he had the chance to suck the other party's blood, it would be of great help to his Sanguine bloodline. However, if the other party was a BOSS in this world, the difficulty would be higher. It was very likely that he had the strength of an Advanced Listener. If he wasn't an Advanced Listener, then Su Bai was willing to give it a try.

Now, from the looks of it, the children's fairy tale "Cinderella" had so much hidden information. So many of the characters had been interpreted wrongly. In the real world, there was a group of Redologists who specialized in studying "Dream of the Red Chamber". Actually, "Cinderella" could also be studied. What was it called? … Redologists?

This night passed peacefully. When Su Bai woke up, his clothes were partially wet from the morning dew, and Cinderella was still sleeping soundly.

Su Bai stood up and stretched out his leg to kick her gently. "Get up."

Cinderella immediately woke up. She got up to pack her things and followed Su Bai on the road.

After walking for about an hour, the city in front of them appeared in Su Bai's sight. The city wasn't very big, but it looked very exquisite.

Come to think of it, the story world of "Cinderella" was similar to the story worlds of "Warcraft" or "Lord of the Rings". Various races could live together. Of course, the number of humans was still the majority.

After entering the city, Su Bai and Cinderella went straight to the most luxurious tailor's shop in the city.

The boss was an old tailor with black-rimmed glasses. After Su Bai took out a bag of gold coins, he appeared very enthusiastic. He called for his staff to help Cinderella measure her clothes. After all the choices were made, the boss promised to pick up the clothes in a day.

Su Bai didn't actually care much about the dress. What he needed to pay attention to the most was the shoes.

In the fairy tale, the pair of crystal shoes seemed to be given to Cinderella by some animal. But now, Su Bai didn't meet any kind of warm-hearted bird or snake that came to give the shoes to him. He could only go to the shoe shop to find the shoes.

But after going to several shoe shops, Su Bai didn't find a shoe that could make his eyes light up. Su Bai didn't like the style of the shoes at all. As for the crystal shoes, he couldn't find one at all.

This made Su Bai very helpless. Whether or not he could get the prince's favor, the real key was the feet. Therefore, he could be a little careless with the dress, but he absolutely couldn't make do with the shoes.

After shopping for the whole afternoon, Su Bai almost swept through all the shoe shops in the city, but he still couldn't find a suitable pair of shoes. Without any other choice, he could only stay in a hotel.

Cinderella was very tactful this time. As soon as she entered the hotel, she began to clean up. She was very sensible and laid a mattress on the floor. Then, she asked the hotel owner for some hot water and began to soak her feet. She now knew the importance of her feet to her destiny.

Su Bai sat on the chair. The afternoon sun shone on his body. If he wasn't on a mission, closing his eyes and taking a nap at this time would be the most enjoyable thing.

After a while, Su Bai stood up, removed one of the chair's legs, and stuck it upside down on the floor.

Cinderella looked at the upside-down chair leg in front of her. She was a little confused.

"After you wash your feet, use this to practice. Up, down, left, left, right. Do you understand?"

Cinderella nodded.

"There's a fishing gear shop downstairs. I'll go take a look."

"Why do you want to go to the fishing gear shop?"

"If I can't find the crystal shoes, I'll make do with a pair of stockings."
