"Wha, what?"
Emily couldn't help but turn pale. She has been innocent so far. Could it be that this dickhead wanted her body?
Rey thought for a while and then said slowly, "I think what happened today is because you have some misunderstandings about me. In order to resolve these misunderstandings..."
"Well, it would be better to deepen the relationship between us."
Emily's red eyes flashed when she heard him talk about deepening the relationship.
How to deepen the relationship between men and women? Is it really that way?
Even if her body gives in, her heart will never give in.
Rey ignored her thoughts and continued.
"Then let it be like this. Every time you want to scold me, you will say, Master Rey, you are so great."
"Whenever you hate me in your heart, you will always say, Master Rey, I love you."
"How about it?"
After hearing this, Emily didn't react for a long time and said, "Hey."
Rey looked at her with a half-smile, "Did you get distracted just now?"
When Emily heard this, she immediately thought that Rey did it on purpose; otherwise, why would he say this on purpose?
arsehole.
Just when she thought this, she blurted out, "Master Rey, you are so great."
Rey showed a satisfied smile and said, "Yes, thank you for the compliment. Praise can make people happy and bring them closer. You did a good job."
Damn it, who needs his praise?
Emily was a little angry and gritted her teeth with hatred.
Wait, hate?
"Lord Rey, I love you."
Emily's face turned red out of pure anger.
Rey was stunned for a moment, then looked at her seriously and said, "I don't know if you are sincere or fake, but I have always been tolerant and unwilling to let down a young lady like you, so every time I treat you as if it's sincere and I'm here to give you an answer."
"I'm sorry, we've only known each other for a day, so I can't respond to your feelings."
Emily knew that he did it on purpose, so she didn't know whether it was true or not. Could it possibly be true?
She gasped for air, her heart beating rapidly.
This man actually refused her seriously. She had never suffered such an insult.
A little bit of hatred came out again.
Oops.
"Lord Rey, I love you."
Rey looked slightly distressed. "Even if you court me so passionately, I can't respond to you. Feelings take time to develop, so you can't be impulsive."
Emily tried hard to block his words and told herself to stay calm.
She wanted to think of something happy and interesting, but she could not remember any happy memories in the past few months since her country was destroyed.
As a knight, she failed to protect anyone, and the princess was still missing in the demon world.
She was traded as a commodity by slave traders, and now she was bullied by unscrupulous people with bad personalities.
Emily finally couldn't bear it anymore; her eyes turned red, her mouth flattened, and she started crying.
It seemed that no one else present reacted.
Rey was dumbfounded; she was really crying.
He first restored Emily's ability to move, but after she wiped her eyes, she cried even more heartbreakingly.
Even if Rey does this, Emily will only hate him more.
"Lord Rey, I love you."
Rey's face tightened. Although it was very immoral, he wanted to laugh.
Emily was even angrier when she saw his appearance through her fingers.
"Bastard, Lord Rey, you are so great."
Plop.
Rey held it in, but someone laughed out loud; it was Pixina.
Seeing everyone looking at her, she hurriedly lowered her head.
Rey finally said, "In this way, I can give you a day off today, but you will still have to accept punishment from tomorrow on."
After saying that, he lifted some of Emily's orders and added two new ones at the same time.
You are not allowed to leave this house, and you cannot use magic power except to protect yourself.
Emily went back to her room.
Rey called Moni and Pisina.
Since they stood up to speak for him, he told them that if they wanted to, they could go shopping together and pick out the food they liked.
The two of them are about the same age as Rey. It is said that they were originally poor people who did not have enough to eat. They were captured and made into slaves not long ago.
When they heard that they could choose any food, the two little faces were a little hesitant but full of excitement.
After covering the slave collar around their necks, the four of them went shopping together. Rey planned to buy more different types of magic stones.
······
Emily sat in the room in a daze.
She didn't even understand why she suddenly showed her weak side.
That is a side of her that must not be exposed, let alone in front of the enemy.
But is Rey really her enemy?
Emily was shaken.
This slave merchant has incredible means. If he uses this, he can actually do a lot of things on his own.
He's not stupid; he definitely wants it.
But he didn't do it but punished her in a hateful way.
In fact, when she was talking to Rey, she gradually discovered that she was just like what he said, but she just thought that the other person was hypocritical.
Just looking at what happened today, what she did was tantamount to repaying kindness with hatred, which was one of the most intolerable behaviours for her.
Emily bit her lower lip, her red eyes showing confusion. Did she do something wrong?
That slave trader might really be different, she thought.
Immediately, Emily clenched her pink fists.
If she was wrong, admit it, apologise, and ask for forgiveness.
However, Rey is a hateful and bad person, and she hates that guy; there is no doubt about it.
······
The time comes in the afternoon.
When Rey came back, he found that Emily was cleaning the vase consciously, which was really strange.
No wonder his points inexplicably increased by several hundred when he was buying things.
Tilu and the other two went to cook, while Rey was preparing to go back to the room to improve his strength.
Noticed Emily looking at him with a hesitant look.
What's wrong?
While he was thinking this, he heard a loud knock on the door outside.
I went to open the door, and the person who came was one of the two boys from yesterday. He looked panicked.
"Brother, he's dead. He's dead."
After hearing what he said, Rey knew that the other boy who was with him was dead.
The two lived together. He went out to play today. When he came back, he only saw the body of his companion, so he hurried to find Rey.
After hearing this, Rey felt shocked. The target was the person from yesterday, that is to say.
"You go out and find a place to take shelter today, and don't go home."
After Rey finished his instructions, he hurried out the door.
Fortunately, I wrote down the address of Kai's family yesterday; otherwise, I wouldn't be able to find it anywhere.
Without any time to think about it, Rey poured all the points he earned into combat power and wind magic.
[Points: 32500]
[Combat power has been increased; current value: 500]
[Remaining points: 22500]
[Wind Magic (Intermediate), 20,000 points]
[It is detected that the host's combat power is less than 2000; points will be redeemed at a ratio of 50:1.]
[Combat power has been increased; current value: 550]
[Remaining points: 0]
Just after crossing a threshold, Rey felt that the magic power in his body increased more than ten times.
Magic power covered his eyes, and he could already see various different elements in the air.
The magic formed by communicating the magic power in the air is not at the same level as the magic he formed by himself.
It was only now that Rey was truly qualified to use magic.
"Speed travel."
The next moment he said this, Rey took advantage of the wind and flew out.
With his current strength, it only takes a few minutes to arrive at full speed. Hopefully, it's still not too late.
