Chapter 202 The Unexpected Youth
Kuka City, in a small alley somewhere in the east of the city.
This is a fairly ordinary gray brick house, but something strange is that even during the day, the curtains of the entire house are tightly closed.
In the room, a girl wearing an ordinary brown skirt was sitting boredly on a chair in the room, flipping through the book in her hand.
After a while, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a slightly thin figure walked in carrying a tray with food.
"Oh, Cress, I've been waiting for a long time!"
The girl said cheerfully, jumped off the chair, took the tray, helped put it on the table nearby, and chirped.
"I'm sorry, Liz, I can only force you to eat these ordinary things."
Cress said a little embarrassed.
The food on the table was just ordinary brown bread and stewed vegetable soup, with some traces of bacon between the potatoes and carrots.
"Hey, I feel like I can breathe a little easier now that I can leave that castle."
"I have to thank you, Cress. I don't want to marry someone so much older than me."< br>
Liz didn’t pay attention, and hugged Cress fiercely, pressing her face against the girl’s small melons and rubbing her face continuously.
"Instead of that, I might as well live with you, Cress!"
"Well, if Lizzie wants that"
Cress murmured softly, with a slight blush on her face.
Cress is an ordinary bronze mage in Kuka City. The inheritance she inherited from her deceased parents is enough for her to live a leisurely and carefree life.
But this peace was broken one day, and Cress remembered it clearly.
It was a sunny spring day. When she was about to go out to buy food for the next few days, a figure suddenly broke in from the door and locked the door tightly with her backhand.
That was a beautiful girl, wearing a gorgeous warm yellow skirt, but she looked at herself longingly and said:
"Someone is chasing me outside. Miss, can I stay here for a while!"
Cress didn't know why she agreed to the girl's request without hesitation at that time. Only the girl's bright look remained in her memory. face and smile.
It was like casting a ray of sunshine into her monotonous, boring life.
Later, Cress learned that the girl’s name was Liz, and she was the daughter of Viscount Kuka, the lord of this place.
That day was when she was going out for fun, but Liz didn't like the guards following her, so she quietly shook them off.
Breaking into Cress's home was also an accident, just to avoid the guards who came from behind.
Liz didn’t have any other ideas. She just wanted to stay at ease for a while. After staying at Liz’s house for a while, she walked around Cress’s house and chatted for a while. Went back.
However, since then, Liz has visited Cress's home from time to time to relax her tense nerves in the Viscount Castle.
Kress didn’t know why, but she didn’t reject this young lady.
Slowly, it seems that there is an extra person in Cress's life, and the gray and white memory pictures seem to have a different color.
Until a week ago, Liz suddenly came to her and said with great disappointment:
"My father is going to marry me off, and I may never come again."
Cress At that time, I felt that my mind was in chaos, and I subconsciously said:
"Well, Liz, do you want to come to my place?"
Knowing that this is very dangerous, it will offend the lord Viscount Kuka, and may make him angry. Her peaceful life was gone forever, but all these worries were forgotten by Cress in Liz's sweet smile.
So a few days ago, with the help of Cress, Liz came here quietly, and Cress tried her best to fake the traces of Liz's escape from Kuka City.
Viscount Kuka was in a hurry, so when Cress went out these days, she found many guards on the street checking the passing people, so the two of them stayed at home honestly.
But it’s not good to stay here forever. Sooner or later, Viscount Kuka will come to the door. Cress is already ready to leave with Liz when the inspection at the city gate is relaxed.
Where to go? The royal capital, Bright City? Cress sipped the vegetable soup and kept making plans in her mind.
In the process, Cress, who had never been involved in other things, gradually matured.
Liz didn't think so much. She felt that she was the luckiest thing to escape from that oppressive home.
Carefully soak the brown bread in the vegetable soup. A little surprise can make her happy for a long time.
As for what the future holds, Liz doesn’t want to worry about it.
As long as you are with Chrissy!
Dang Dang!
While the two were enjoying the food quietly, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Cress's body suddenly became tense, and Liz also looked scared, but she obediently didn't make a sound and just stayed there quietly waiting for Cress's decision.
Cress gritted her teeth and whispered to Liz:
"I'll go see what's going on. Just stay here and don't make a sound."
Liz nodded, knowing very well what Cress was worried about.
Cress didn’t let Liz hide.
If the person really came for Liz, there was no point in hiding.
If the target was not Liz, Cress would not let her into the house easily.
Standing in front of the door, Cress took a deep breath to calm down, then looked outside through the small hole in the door.
Cress let out a small sigh of relief. There were no guards. It was not the worst scenario she had imagined.
Standing outside the door was a handsome young man, smiling as if he had noticed someone looking out of the small hole.
"Who are you, what's the matter with?"
Cress asked cautiously without opening the door.
“My name is Li Si, from Bright City.”
"As for the purpose?"
The young man smiled and said something that almost made Cress' heart stop beating.
"To help you and Miss Liz."
Kress' heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment. She didn't expect Liz's name to be said casually by this young man.
The affirmative tone seemed to indicate that he knew all this.
what to do? what to do?
Are you taking Liz and running away now?
No, it’s too late, the guards will definitely catch her.
Just when Cress’s heart was in a mess, the young man’s voice sounded in her ears again.
“Don’t worry, I’m here to help you.”
"Otherwise, I will go directly to Viscount Kuka."
Cress calmed down a little, and the man who claimed to be Li Si did make sense.
"I think it's better to let me go into the room and chat. It's too eye-catching here."
"And"
A ball suddenly appeared in the young man's hand The quietly burning blue fireball reflected something evil and mysterious on his face.
"I don't think this door can stop me."
Pop!
The pale Cress didn’t hesitate and opened the door suddenly.
