NOVEL NEXT Chapter 079
Kingdom of Dressrosa, royal palace, kitchen.
Scarlet, wearing a long light yellow dress and a pink apron tied around her body, hums a small tune happily while making sumptuous bento.
At the kitchen doorway, Violet cautiously poked half of her head out, and she looked at her sister with a surprised expression.
At this moment, King Liku passed by the corridor, and the black-haired girl quickly pulled her father to her side, and she muttered in a low voice:
“Look, my sister actually cooked…”
Seeing this scene, King Liku’s face also showed a surprised expression, and there was some inexplicable emotion in his tone.
It’s not that Scarlet can’t cook, or that she can only cook dark or something….
On the contrary, the meals she makes are very tasty!
However, because Scarlet needs to learn various etiquette and knowledge necessary for royalty every day, she is not very generous in her spare time, and she does not like to make her clothes dirty and oily, so she generally rarely cooks….
Even King Riku, who is Scarlet’s father, can eat only a handful of her meals in a year!
Curious, Violet used his superhuman “Glaring Fruit” ability.
She raised her right index finger and thumb, and the tips of the two fingers touched each other, forming a circle-like gesture of “OK gesture”, and a thin layer of purple film-like substance appeared instantly.
The black-haired girl’s right eye read the thoughts in Scarlet’s mind at this time through the purple film.
[If you want to grab a man’s heart, you must first grab a man’s stomach….
This bento I made for Sephiroth will definitely impress him… Well? No more frying two love eggs….
But wouldn’t that be too straightforward? …… Be a little less subtle, right?
But he will leave after the mission, and if I don’t take the initiative, won’t I have a chance in the future….
Well! Well! That’s it, be decisive! You can Scalette….
When he liked me, we got married and had two more babies…]
An indescribable scene suddenly appeared, and Violet lowered her right hand with a red face in shame.
Immediately afterwards, she pulled the cloak of King Laliku, and the latter immediately realized and squatted down.
“My sister likes the big brother of the navy who saved her yesterday
, and…” Listening to the words of the second daughter, King Liku’s face changed for a while, and the emotions in his heart were complicated and unclear, and he was sad and happy.
He never expected that his little cotton jacket would be abducted so soon!?
Wrong! It’s his daughter who wants to post it upside down, and I don’t know if people will agree…
As soon as he thought of this, King Liku suddenly felt even worse!
In the kitchen, Scarlet turned around, ready to pack the bento box, her gaze, after seeing the two sneaky at the door, she tilted her head and said with a puzzled look:
“Huh!? Father and sister, why are you at the door…”
We just happened to be passing by, passing by… Hahaha!
King Riku scratched his head in embarrassment, he took Violet’s hand and quickly left the kitchen door.
“Inexplicable…”
the pink-haired girl muttered softly in her mouth, and then quickly packed the bento.
…………
After separating from Violet, King Riku walked alone to the garden of the palace distraught.
With a casual sweep of his gaze, he saw the burly Zefa.
The other party is standing next to the low wall of the garden, taking advantage of the height of the palace building, overlooking the whole of Dressrosa, with a panoramic view of the whole country.
King Riku coughed lightly, walked to Zefa’s side, and he spoke:
“Cough! General Zefa… I want to ask you… Hearing
this, the purple-haired old man raised his eyebrows and said with a puzzled face:
“Huh? Why did you suddenly ask about him?
“Nothing… I just want to know him as a person.
“Sephiroth this stinky boy! ……
Among so many students I teach, on the whole, he is still very commendable, with a high cultivation talent, good strength, a very flexible mind, and a hard work…
There is just a little… It makes the old man feel very headache! Hearing
this, Liku Wang Hu’s body was shocked, and he secretly said something in his heart.
Here comes the point!
A person with so many advantages, if there are no more shortcomings or two, it is too perfect!
“This stinky boy, I can’t understand something… His attitude towards the pirates is a little too indifferent! ”
Huh!? General Zefa, what do you mean by this? Isn’t your student Sephiroth a righteous man…?
King Liku’s brows frowned slightly, and his tone unconsciously carried a hint of worry.
“Huh? This one…… I didn’t make it clear, how to say it!
I have a student Sakaski, current vice admiral, who pursues absolute justice.
He hates pirates deeply, and if there is no order from above, no pirate can survive in his hands….
The situation of Sephiroth is very similar, but different.
When he killed the pirates, it was as if… How to describe that feeling?
It gives people the feeling that it is as ordinary as eating and drinking water, so taken for granted, it seems very casual, you can kill or not, it all depends on whether he needs it….
When I think about it, I can only describe it as indifferent.
King Riku frowned and muttered,
“Is this good or bad…?”
Hearing this, Zefa shook his head with a wry smile, and he muttered:
“I don’t know, I can only see Sephiroth’s performance in the future…”
What the two didn’t know was that the reason why Sephiros was like this was purely because during his time as a pirate hunter in the Chambord Islands, he really killed too many pirates!
If you kill more, you will be numb….
Exactly how many people were killed, Sephiroth did not count much, but at least two or three thousand!
This horrific killing figure has exceeded the vast majority of the navy in the navy headquarters….
…………
Scarlet was carrying a large bento box in her hand, and just some distance out of the palace, a burly man quickly followed.
So, the pink-haired girl suddenly had a displeased expression, turned around, and looked at Cyrus who was following her.
“Please don’t come near me!”
“But King Riku said, let me follow you, protect your safety, and prevent yesterday’s incident from happening again…”
After Scarlet finished speaking angrily, she flicked her face, turned around, and continued to walk towards the street in the distance.
All this time, she didn’t treat Cyrus very much….
Ten years ago, Cyrus was just a slum gangster, fighting and wandering the streets all day.
Once, his gangster friend was killed because of a fight!
So, he took a wooden stick with nails and beat the murderer to death, and Scarlet’s father, King Riku, was also knocked on the forehead with a wooden stick, leaving a hideous scar.
However, King Riku did not directly execute Cyrus, but locked the latter in the gladiator arena, making him a prisoner gladiator.
Moreover, King Riku also promised the other party that after he won 40 consecutive victories, he could restore his free body.
During this period, Scarlet also went to see a duel in Cyrus, and the other party’s fierce demeanor like a beast left a lot of shadow in her heart when she was a child.
And yet….
What’s surprising is that after achieving a forty-game winning streak, this guy did not leave the arena, but stayed there, and stayed for 9 years, winning 3,000 games in a row without losing a single game.
Unknowingly, with the victory of Cyrus, he changed from a murderer to a big red man of the kingdom.
Originally, Scarlet had always been indifferent to what happened to this person.
But….
A year ago, Cyrus, without knowing what means he used, mixed into the king’s army and became its commander.
The shadow of her heart when she was a child, coupled with the scar on King Riku’s forehead, has always reminded Jean Scallet, making her wary of Cyrus in her heart, and never waiting to see the other party, thinking that she is just disguising her true face and harboring bad intentions.
Scarlet believes that one day, when Kyros achieves his goal, he will reveal his true face in private.
After Cyrus was reprimanded, due to his duty, he could only carefully follow Scarlet three meters behind, watching for possible danger…
