12. My Wife is Gone
Drink or no drink, that’s the question. The queen’s wine glass has already been handed to me, and there’s no way she would let me find some messy excuse.
“?”
With Queen Louise IV’s seemingly radiant smile, but with her gaze fixed on me, I knew I couldn’t escape the carefully designed trap of this queen.
If the script were ambiguous, I might take a risk and find a way out, but at this moment, the script clearly stated that the wine handed to me by the queen was drugged, almost bluntly telling me “drink it and become a beast of desire”!
Of course, I couldn’t drink it, but if I didn’t drink, the next part of the script would also emerge.
【Euclid refuses, but is subsequently killed by Louise IV.】
All around me was “death, death, death,” so I didn’t need to hold back. Suddenly, I came up with a good idea.
“What’s wrong, Mr. Priest? Generally speaking, I wouldn’t drink with others~ Do you… not want to accept?”
Of course, I had to accept, but in a different way!
I immediately reached out and knocked the wine glass that Louise was handing to me away, and just as the girl in front of me looked surprised, I took a step forward, grabbing her arm with one hand and wrapping the other around her waist!
“!”
“Sorry, Your Majesty, it seems I can’t quite control my emotions.”
Isn’t this idol queen trying to drug me? Then I won’t take the drug; I’ll just pretend I can’t control myself! After all, I’m a big man, I’m not losing out! I ‘m a tough nut to crack; I’m noble!
Sure enough, the cheerful tone Louise had immediately changed.
“Eh? Wait, hold on…”
“Actually, there’s something I’ve been dying to tell you!”
As I spoke these strange words, my hands began to wander around Louise’s waist.
But this wasn’t about taking advantage or being lewd; even though the queen’s body was truly soft and fragrant, I clearly remembered that in the script, Louise IV would do everything to me.
She was a BOSS-level character, and in my script, there was already a line about her wanting to “kill me”! Not to mention the inherent danger of Louise herself; I was not blessed enough to handle that.
In the end, I had already registered with the great Kfeir.
I was merely pretending to be lewd, searching for the key to the door. At this moment, the door was locked on both sides, and I could only find the key on Louise IV to make my escape!
However…
“Really? Wow, I’m looking forward to it!”
Louise’s voice only tensed for a moment before returning to normal, and then at the moment I let go and looked over…
“And I have something I want to say to you too~”
“What… what is it?”
“I think I understand why Kfeir likes you; the pursuit of exceptional individuals is a human instinct.”
Eh?
“You’re just a bit ordinary in skills, but in other aspects, you truly surprised me just now; that performance really scared me.”
My body stiffened, pulling away slightly from Louise, and I saw a glimmering key in her hand, looking at me with an innocent smile.
“Are you looking for this?”
Then, Louise IV casually tore off her bowtie and tossed it aside, her hand holding the key suddenly loosened, and she… threw the key into the unfathomable “universe.”
“I wouldn’t mind giving it to you~ Please come and get it yourself.”
【Louise IV saw through Euclid’s thoughts.】
Tsk, this is troublesome!
I immediately took a few steps back, my expression serious: “Your Majesty, what have I done to deserve your concern to this extent?”
Louise’s smile gradually faded: “Aren’t you the one who knows your own abilities best?”
In that instant, I seemed to understand something, and at the same time, along with the queen’s words, the script appeared in my mind.
“Not to mention playing the role of a good Samaritan, Mr. Euclid~”
【Louise IV discovered Euclid’s true identity!】
I suddenly understood! It turned out that the queen’s purpose in ‘approaching me’ or even ‘seducing’ me was not vague in the script; it had been hinted at from the very beginning! It was just that the way the script had appeared all along made me unaware of this point!
She had set her sights on Euclid, and what she was targeting was my true self—Euclid!
“Let me think, did you approach Kfeir for self-preservation?”
“!”
“Don’t be nervous, you’re not some scum, after all, you’ve also given my dear Kefir help and support. Isn’t it better that you choose me now?”
I finally caught a glimpse of the “true face” of Queen Louise IV of the Great Ying Empire. After the idol’s smile faded, there was a cold sneer that sent chills down my spine, making me feel stiff all over.
“You seek protection, I provide you protection. As for the ‘certain events’ that have occurred, I will also fulfill my corresponding role afterward. I believe this queen identity can protect you even better than Kefir’s identity. Because, right now, Kefir is bearing quite a serious accusation—harboring an internationally wanted criminal.”
Hiss…
Kefir’s crisis is here! This queen dares to act against her own cousin!?
“Sorry, but I must decline. I have the right to choose whom I serve.”
“I think I won’t disappoint you. After all, what Kefir has, I have too.”
Taking a deep breath, Louise immediately… changed her attitude.
“Ou Qi Li De, stop dawdling and choose!”
Is this… pretending to be Kefir?
“I’m not doing this for you!”
Uh…
“Wuu… Sir Priest, you really don’t want to choose my side?”
In the end, it was the “idol.”
After ending all this, Louise coldly said, “You can choose anyone you like, Ou Qi Li De.”
This has gone beyond just being frightening.
“Great power requires control. Compared to someone like Moriarty who has no persistence, I prefer… to have it firmly in my grasp. By the way, Sir Priest, you’d better not be thinking about any prophecies, because the time has come.”
Having said that, the queen snapped her fingers, and the sound of the door unlocking came from behind!
And in the next moment, accompanied by the abrupt appearance of a script, there was quite a commotion outside!
【Kefir is anxious to return to the room to find Ou Qi Li De!】
This…
Turning my head, I saw Louise IV smile at me, then quickly opened her shirt wider. Coupled with the clinking wine glass on the floor and the two of us alone in this environment, everything seemed to need no explanation, allowing one’s imagination to run wild.
“Priest, you’re not having any problems, right!? Uh…”
I didn’t have time to stop it; I could only watch as Kefir rushed in anxiously, then froze in place at the scene inside.
“Kefir, just now he was planning to…”
Louise panicked and covered her chest. Where was that little bit of “coldness” from before? She was clearly just a poor girl being attacked by a rogue!
Despair instantly filled my heart, but…
【Kefir is very disappointed in Ou Qi Li De!】
【Kefir realizes something is off!】
Kefir actually… thinks I’m not being a rogue!?
Thank the eighteen generations of the script! Finally, my clinging to the thigh has had some effect! At least Ke Fei’er didn’t stab me with a sword!
I dared not hesitate and immediately used my clumsy contract to secretly tell Ke Fei’er: Right now, big boss, you don’t need to do anything. The situation on my end is already unavoidable, but at least… you can ‘t encounter any crises. Ke Fei’er, just protect yourself; otherwise, the queen will conspire against you as well, and this is my ‘great crisis’ that you are facing too!
【Ke Fei’er decided to cooperate with Ou Qi Li De.】
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and met Ke Fei’er’s “angry” gaze with composure.
“You… this man, I misjudged you!”
