Northern Europe. The splendid palaces and the snow-white glaciers formed a sharp contrast, making the palaces look more glorious and noble, and the glaciers look more holy and clean.
This was a wealthy aristocratic family. The servants coming and going were busy preparing a sumptuous banquet.
A woman with a headscarf was driving an ox cart that was filled with fresh fruits and vegetables. She slowly drove the cart into the kitchen area of the Nordic family's palace. As soon as she arrived at the kitchen courtyard, she could already smell the aroma of baked pancakes filling the air.
"Oh, a beautiful young lady is here to deliver the fruits today. Don't wander around later. Those young men in the clan are all hot-blooded and vigorous. Usually, they are restrained by their elders to focus on cultivation in the clan. You should be able to understand how much they desire it in their hearts, so don't easily fall into their sights. If you are targeted by them, you might …" The head chef looked at the village girl who was delivering the fruits today and said with a smile.
The girl today was indeed unique. She was at the most coveted age and had a wonderful figure. Even if she was only wearing some vulgar clothes and was wrapped up tightly, it could be seen that she was a beauty.
It was rare to see a naturally beautiful woman who was self-reliant these days. She would often be fancied by men with superior conditions in a short period of time.
"Maybe I'll live a life of luxury, and from now on, you will have to follow my orders and cook what I want to eat?" the woman replied in a very normal tone.
The head chef was startled. He then deliberately laughed to cover up the awkwardness.
Alright, the girl already had her own thoughts. She already had her own life plan. Why would such an outstanding girl do such hard work?
"I heard that there are some strange rules in there. Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, the girls who have gone in have some mental changes. We all know that everyone in Lanska wants to squeeze into this rich and warm palace, including us who do the hard work. Anyway, it's better to be careful," the head chef said.
"Mm, I'm fully prepared," the woman smiled.
The head chef shook his head helplessly. He had given her such a hint, but she still made such a choice. It was none of his business. Anyway, as a chef, he had no right to criticize the private life of a noble family.
After removing the melons and fruits, the apprentices carefully cut them into beautiful platters. After waiting for the meat in the oven to reach a precise degree of doneness, the head chef focused on preparing the dinner for the entire clan …
The head chef did not know the exact date, nor did he know what the Lanska Family was celebrating. He only knew that the elders in the family regarded today as the founding day, as if they were ushering in a new era. The whole of Northern Europe would know about the Lanska Family.
…
"The dining car must be in an orderly line when it is pushed into the banquet hall. All the dishes must be presented to the guests within three minutes. You must be fast, but you must not lose your manners. Do you understand?" The head chef said loudly.
There were twenty waiters and ten dining carts. This family's banquet was not inferior to a luxurious large-scale restaurant. Even the serving of the dishes was like a grand performance that needed to be rehearsed in advance.
Ten dining carts were pushed into the banquet hall from three different directions. The head chef elegantly carried a plate of roasted beef leg that he was best at. The other apprentices and waiters clustered around the dining carts and entered the grand banquet hall together …
Suddenly, a thick smell of blood wafted over. The head chef could not help but furrow his brows. He wanted to reprimand the apprentices for letting the smell of slaughtered cows and geese reach here. However, he was shocked to find that the entire banquet hall was littered with people in luxurious clothes. They were lying in a pool of blood, just like the scene of the livestock they had just slaughtered!
However, these were all people, and they were all people of prominent status. They were no different from the dead chickens and sheep lying in the pool of blood.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The dining carts and plates fell to the ground, and the fragrant food spilled out. The apprentices and waiters were frightened and did not know what to do. However, even the rich aroma of the food could not cover the stench of death.
The apprentices, waiters, and maids immediately fled for their lives while uttering the most horrifying screams. How was this a beautiful banquet? It was purely a bloody massacre. Everyone in the family had died!
The head chef stood there trembling. The others were rolling on the ground while running for their lives. However, the head chef knew that if the demon could kill all the Magicians in the family, it would be even easier for her to kill ordinary people like them. Running away was meaningless.
At that moment, a woman in a grape-colored robe slowly approached from the end of the bloody carpet. She was holding a long black sword that was as long as a tooth. Her unique, seductive eyes were somewhat familiar to the head chef …
Was she the one who killed everyone here?
Wasn't she the village girl who delivered the vegetables?
The reason why she stood out was because she was wearing a simple, outdated outfit. However, her beautiful eyes still gave people a sense of nobility, like a descendant of a noble family.
"It's a pity for all the food, right?" The woman elegantly put the black Dragon Fang Sword back into its scabbard. The scabbard only had light intertwining, but it did not have a physical object. When the sword was completely sheathed, the sword and the light disappeared into the woman's slender waist.
"You … you're from the Sacred City. Are you here to punish them? This filthy family, they deserve it, they deserve it! "the head chef said in shock.
"I'm not working for the Sacred City, I'm just here to collect the debt. There are always some people in this world who think they're smart. They borrowed the power of an unfriendly god to satisfy their selfish desires, but they forgot the promise they made in their indulgence. They want to renege on it, or even defy it. They think they're smart enough to use the loopholes in the Dark Contract to escape the debt. They always think that the darkness will never be able to step into this peaceful family. Little did they know that the god knows the greed of the people here like the back of his hand, so people like me are running around like a debt collector. Of course, we don't want anything else from them, we only want their lives, and then send their souls down below."
The woman with the black sword pointed at the pool of blood after saying this.
What was under the pool of blood?
It must be some kind of dark purgatory. Those who had violated the Dark Contract and the Dark Sacrificial Oath would have a hard time surviving.
"Who exactly are you?" the head chef did not understand what she was saying. He did not understand the profound rules of magic at all.
"To the vengeful souls lingering in this house, I'm their angel. To the people who have violated the rules of Dark Magic in this family, I'm the devil …" the woman opened the plate in the head chef's hand and tore off a piece of beef leg with her finger. She put it in her mouth and tasted it, not forgetting to suck away the grease on her finger.
A peerless appearance, a noble and charming voice, and a sexy action. It was supposed to be a scene that could make any man's blood boil, but when he thought of the bloody scene behind her, like a slaughterhouse, the head chef immediately shuddered!
…
The palace was still golden, and the snow was still clean. However, the palace was filled with terrified screams, and people running for their lives everywhere.
The woman put on a long robe. Her beautiful hair danced in the wind. After she walked out of the palace filled with the smell of blood, she could not help but glance at the sky, which was devoid of any mist. The river of stars was dazzling, and the light intertwined like a beautiful fairy tale. Although Northern Europe was cold, there was always a scenery that made people excited.
"Looking at the stars by yourself?" a man's voice suddenly appeared without any warning.
The woman abruptly turned around, her fair and slender hand reaching for her waist. The incomparably sharp black Dragon Fang Longsword suddenly released an enormous aura, as if an ancient dragon was roaring madly in this place!
The woman was on guard. She knew that someone who could appear so close to her without her knowing was definitely not an ordinary Magician.
"Don't be nervous, it's me, Mofan." The man was already in front of the woman. He placed his hand on the back of her slender hand that was about to draw the sword.
The woman stared at the man in front of her in astonishment. His familiar aura, with a hint of warmth, came close to the tip of her nose in an ambiguous manner …
"It's … it's been a while." The woman collected her thoughts. A smile that could melt a person's heart appeared on her beautiful face.
Mofan looked at her. He felt like he had been captured by this woman. He was lost in thought for a moment, before he awkwardly took a step back.
I can't get too close to her, I can't get too close to her.
The flower was extremely poisonous. It was not something that could be resisted with willpower!
"It took me a long time to find you," Mofan said after adjusting his emotions.
"If you're here for me, you can easily find me. If you're here for someone else, you'll never find me," Asha 'ria slowly sheathed her Dragon Fang Sword. She casually sat down on the snowy ground.
"Don't freeze your butt. Why don't you sit on my lap?" Mofan quickly pulled her back.
"Sure." Asha 'ria did not mind at all.
"I'm just kidding …" Mofan scratched his head.
"Say it. There's no need to beat around the bush between us. However, you only have one chance. I'll only promise you one thing." Asha 'ria did not sit on the snowy ground. She stretched out her hand and elegantly held Mofan's arm, allowing Mofan to accompany her for a walk in the snow.
"I heard from the old angel in the Holy City that there's more than one Fallen Angel …" Mofan said.
"Hmm?" Asha 'ria did not answer directly.
Mofan looked at Asha 'ria's face seriously and asked, "I followed some clues and found many people who fit the criteria. In the end, I felt that the other Fallen Angel might be someone I know. Asha' ria, are you another Fallen Angel?"
"Don't you want to think about it?" Asha 'ria raised her head and met Mofan's gaze.
"Think about what?" Mofan asked.
"I told you, you can only ask me one question. Why don't you consider the other one? Every time you get close to me, you're trying your best to control yourself. Am I really that dangerous?" Asha 'ruiya asked.
Mofan did not know how to answer for a moment.
After all, Mofan had never felt that he was special. Like most men, he coveted Asha 'ria's beauty.
"You are indeed very dangerous. While I'm attracted by your uniqueness and excellence, I'm warning myself not to cross the line easily. On the one hand, I still don't understand what you're thinking. On the other hand, I'm a man with a family. I need … ahem, I need self-discipline. "Mofan did not know how to say such nonsense, but he could only be honest.
"You can ask me now, and I'll answer you. You don't understand what I'm thinking, and I don't understand your behavior. This shows that we are equal and fair, "Asha 'ria said.
"Can't I ask two questions?" Mofan said with some embarrassment.
Asha 'ria shook her head with certainty.
"Why?" Mofan was puzzled.
"I pursue a philosophy. Even if a woman's heart has fallen, she can't easily reveal everything about herself. I only answer one question, which means that I don't refuse to welcome you. I keep one question, which means that I still have my value. "Asha 'ria also said to Mofan very frankly.
Mo Fan furrowed his brows.
Two questions, only one can be chosen.
Mofan was also very clear that any angel traveling in the world, whether it was an angel of the Holy City or a fallen angel, would not reveal their identity before their "glorious return."
Mofan really understood that Asha 'ria was willing to answer one question, but she had to keep one question. After all, she was willing to help him for free, which was already a great favor.
Speaking of which, he seemed to owe Asha 'ria a lot of favors.
These favors had to be repaid.
But Asha 'ria did not lack anything.
And Asha 'ria was not the kind of person who could deceive two answers with flowery words. If she said that there was only one answer, then there was definitely only one answer. Even if they could be inseparable in the future, she would never answer the question of whether she was a fallen angel or not.
Looking at the night sky, the stars were dazzling.
But the beauty in front of him was even more fascinating.
Mofan fell into a kind of pain. He knew that he was bound to lose something.
Asha 'ruiya was really smart. A woman who could give a man difficult problems was never a leaf that could serve as a foil to a man.
Either he could understand her completely.
Or he could never understand her feelings in this life.
What do you want to ask?
Are you a fallen angel?
Have you fallen in love with me?
If there was another way out, Mofan would never be willing to face this choice.
…
"That's great." Asha 'ruiya breathed in the cold air. She looked at Mo Fan's face and said, "I thought you would give me an answer soon. Your painful hesitation has made me feel like I'm worth something, and it's not insignificant."
"What I want to ask is …" Mofan finally spoke.
The strong wind blew a large piece of snow, which rushed toward the two people who were walking slowly under the Milky Way.
Mofan's voice was very soft. Only Asha 'ria, who was close to Mofan, could hear it.
Asha 'ria was still holding Mofan's arm elegantly and keeping a distance. She did not distance herself from him, nor did she get close to him. But her footprints were sometimes shallow and sometimes deep.
