What Magic Does This Ordinary Person Have?
Seeing that Lilith was somewhat resistant, Mary didn't try to persuade her any further.
However, looking at the beautiful, angelic Miss Lilith with her forlorn expression, Mary felt a pang of pain in her heart.
Oh, it doesn't matter who it is, she'd do anything to make Miss Lilith happy.
Evil Mouth and Shen Yu mingled in the middle of the banquet.
They learned quite a bit about Lilith from the nobles.
Lilith herself is the daughter of a baron.
However, the Baron and Baroness were unfortunately killed by a group of robbers.
Upon hearing this, the Duke saw the young and angelic-looking Lilith and, since he had no children, adopted Lilith.
This was no secret among the nobility.
The Duke's affection for Lilith was genuine.
Although the nobles had reservations about Baron Lilith's status as his daughter, they did not show their dissatisfaction in front of the Duke.
The Evil Mouth went around in circles.
The intelligence obtained was limited.
All that is known is that the Duke adores Lilith and basically regards her as his heir.
However, the Duke was somewhat strict in his actions, for example, he wouldn't let Lilith leave the castle, partly out of fear that she would get hurt outside. But Lilith remained trapped inside the castle and had no real friends.
This made Lilith really want a friend.
Friends, friends again.
The rules in the room also apply to friends.
This strange creature seems to value the word "friend" very much.
Thinking to Evil Mouth, it seems the solution to this impasse lies with my friends.
Shen Yu picked up a small, delicate pastry from the table and took a bite.
Sugar was a very precious commodity at that time, and the sugar content in pastries was considered quite good by people then.
Shen Yu felt that there wasn't enough sugar, and it wasn't sweet enough.
After finishing the pastry, which could be eaten in two bites, he lost interest in all the other pastries on the table.
Evil Mouth he still had the appetite to eat, I couldn't help but be surprised. Do ordinary people have such a big heart in this kind of situation?
And they dare to eat the food here? Aren't they afraid of being poisoned?
Even I, with my Evil Mouth, wouldn't dare to eat these foods.
Oh well, he was just an ordinary person. If he died, he died.
Having exhausted all information among the Evil Mouth, he decided to seek out Lilith, who was clearly a significant figure in the entire Ghost Domain.
Lilith stood on the high platform.
She could choose not to attend the banquet below, but as the main character of this banquet, she naturally couldn't leave so soon.
Evil Mouth walked up a flight of steps and stood before Lilith.
Lilith possessed an excessively Radiance head of blonde hair, which shimmered with a dazzling golden light under the lamplight, its radiance truly captivating.
Combined with her youthful yet adorable face, she looked almost unrealistically beautiful.
Especially when her azure eyes look at you, you feel as if the person standing in front of you is an angel descended to earth.
No wonder that even though the nobles were jealous of Lilith for winning the Duke's favor, they couldn't deny that Lilith had a beautiful face.
In this era, Lilith's beauty, without the protection of a high-ranking official, would lead to a very tragic end.
Some people will praise her highly because of her beauty, while others will be jealous of her beauty and even have thoughts of destroying her.
Lilith took out a small mirror and gently wiped away a speck of dust. "Mirror, oh mirror," she murmured, "When will I have a friend of my own?"
The mirror, of course, gave her no answer.
Mary just thought Lilith was playing around. After hearing her words, she could do nothing but feel more sorry for her.
After all, they were of different statuses. As a maid, it was impossible and unacceptable for her to become friends with Lilith, the daughter of a duke.
Their relationship can only be that of master and servant.
If she oversteps her bounds, the Duke will banish her from the castle, and then who will stay by Miss Lilith's side?
As if Evil Mouth in thought, he looked at the mirror in Lilith's hand and very naturally and without any politeness snatched the small mirror from Lilith hand.
The fluid movements suggested that he had done this countless times.
After Lilith's mirror disappeared, she paused for a moment before turning her gaze to Evil Mouth, as if she had only just noticed him.
My first impression was: This is a strange person.
There was an inexplicable malice about him that made her uncomfortable, and she wanted to escape from his side.
Evil Mouth examined the small mirror from all angles, but found nothing unusual, nor did he sense any eerie aura emanating from it.
It seems that's not it.
Evil Mouth threw the mirror back into Lilith's arms.
The actions were extremely rude.
Lilith hurriedly took the mirror, feeling a little wronged because her mirror had been treated this way.
She suppressed her emotions and looked at Evil Mouth, Evil Mouth attire seemed very strange to her; he was neither a nobleman nor a commoner.
"Who are you?"
Evil Mouth: "Oh? You can see me?"
He thought none of these people could see him.
Was it his act of snatching the mirror that broke something, or was it because Lilith was special?
Lilith clutched the hem of her skirt. She looked at Mary, and sure enough, Mary stood quietly to the side as if she hadn't noticed anything.
Lilith was a little nervous; could the others not see him?
Are you... an elf?
"An elf? Me?" He grinned Evil Mouth, threatening the child without any restraint. "No, I'm a man-eating demon."
Lilith was suddenly frightened.
Because once Evil Mouth stops pretending to be shy, they certainly don't look like a good person.
Lilith was even considering calling for guards.
But at that moment, they saw Shen Yu walking up the steps.
Even though Shen Yu was completely covered up, you could still see his eyes when you looked out.
Lilith's fear suddenly lessened considerably.
Hearing footsteps, Evil Mouth turned around and saw that it was the ordinary person running up.
I wonder what kind of magic this ordinary person possesses.
Lilith was previously very nervous and uneasy, is now visibly much more relaxed.
Are you from outside the castle?
With his arms crossed, he said Evil Mouth, "Nonsense! What, you want us to take you out? Don't be ridiculous. A princess who can't do anything, do you think you can survive outside?"
Lilith gritted her teeth; she knew this too.
"Can you tell me what's outside?"
"I've seen it in picture books. Outside, there are endless plains, thriving forests, many small animals, beautiful lakes, and flowing streams."
