Luo Ya recalled something.
That was Alisa Akkat's fear of knives when she was young.
Or it could be said that she was afraid of all sharp, sharp things that could hurt her.
In his previous life, there was a saying in the Celestial Empire, "Once bitten, twice shy." Although this saying had a meaning, it was also a description of a disease, and that was Object Phobia.
Object phobia refers to the abnormal, intense tension or fear of certain objects in a certain environment. Although the person knows that this psychology and behavior are unreasonable, when they encounter the corresponding situation, they repeatedly have abnormal experiences and have avoidance reactions, which are difficult to control and seriously affect their normal life.
There were many people who were afraid of this psychological disease. They were afraid of snakes, mice, and insects. As for Ai Lisi, it was similar to Acrophobia.
As for the reason … it could only be said that it was a pain that talented people had to endure.
Luo Ya sighed in his heart and recalled the childhood that Ai Lisi mentioned in the plot.
All the misfortune originated from Ai Lisi's bloodline. That's right, it was the top-notch Silver Bloodline that Luo Ya coveted so much: the Son of Silver.
Bloodlines were not so simple in this world. They were called Xi Ya's gift.
Although bloodlines were called that, they were not dependent on blood relations. It was normal for children to be ordinary if their parents were bloodline users. On the other hand, it was also possible for a bloodline user to suddenly appear among the commoners.
Of course, the prerequisite was to successfully awaken. When it came to awakening, one had to mention the number of awakenings and the level.
Bloodlines were divided into four levels. The highest was Gold and the lowest was Iron. Every breakthrough would jump a level. Silver Bloodlines required two awakenings and Gold Bloodlines required three awakenings. Every time a bloodline increased by one level, the number of people would decrease exponentially. A country might not have a single Gold Bloodline user for decades.
Ai Lisi had already broken through once. She had a Bronze Bloodline. However, her awakening ability was not viewed favorably by others. She had even become the target of bullying because of it.
That was the rapid healing of wounds.
It didn't sound like much, but most people wouldn't be able to get used to the sight of the flesh wriggling and the skin regenerating, let alone the brats who hadn't seen much of the world.
This kind of uniqueness, her father not being at home all year round, and her shy and introverted personality, led to Alisa's tragic childhood. Of course, another reason was that no one thought that this girl, who seemed to have nothing except for her beauty, would have a second awakening and become a Silver. Her ability would completely transform and blossom.
Luo Ya thought of many things while the silver-haired girl on the other side of the table was trembling.
The blades of the table knives reflected their shadows, and the prongs of the forks shone brightly. Little Ai Lisi looked at them and recalled her own experience.
It was at the princess's birthday banquet a year ago. Her father, who was a glutton for alcohol, got drunk. A few children from the viscount's family, who had been bullying her, surrounded her with the young master of the count's family. They stabbed her body with knives and forks, ignored her cries, and dragged her away by her hair. They even wanted to use a fork to stab her eyes to see if she could regenerate.
Fortunately, an adult accidentally saw the group of children's atrocities and caused them to disperse. Otherwise, Ai Lisi would have been treated like hell that night. Even so, it still became a nightmare for her.
Since then, Alisa had been afraid of knives and forks. Not only was she afraid of being pointed at by a knife and fork, but she was also afraid of eating by herself. The baron had comforted her and wanted her to overcome this psychological barrier, but it ended in failure.
From then on, Ai Lisi's utensils became spoons. This situation lasted for about a year, but no one knew that she couldn't use knives and forks until she came to Marquis Akkat's house. Today, the main dish for lunch was a fried lamb chop that required knives and forks.
In the dining hall, the delicious dishes were already served. The servants were standing at the back, waiting for orders. The black-haired, golden-eyed boy picked up his utensils, and the metallic glint made Ai Lisi visibly tremble.
"Ai Lisi, our Akkat Family's lamb chop is famous for its deliciousness. Quickly try it."
Luo Ya looked at the silver-haired girl, who was on the verge of fear, and said these words to block her path of retreat.
It wasn't some bad taste, nor was it to make her afraid. Luo Ya had to make Ai Lisi show her fear, or else Luo Ya wouldn't be able to help her.
Today was the first time Luo Ya had met Eliza, and he had never heard of her before. Based on common sense, it was impossible for him to know that she didn't dare to use utensils, so he needed an opportunity to cut in.
However, when Ai Lisi heard this sentence, she thought of many things. The silver-haired girl's body froze as she thought of a possibility.
Had Luo Ya heard of her before?
Although it was impossible to prove, it was normal for children of nobles to know each other. It wasn't impossible for them to have heard of the "mysterious creature" Ai Lisi. If that was the case, this strange formal lunch could be explained. Moreover, Luo Ya's words just now actually included his family's name, which was almost a form of coercion.
Whenever nobles brought up XX family, our family, and so on, it was a rather forceful way of talking. Unless they decided to become enemies, they could only agree. Refusing was a very rude behavior. Perhaps Luo Ya was waiting for an opportunity to bully her.
The silver-haired girl lowered her head and clenched her fists in front of the dining table.
She couldn't let him discover her weakness, or else … a new hell would await her.
