Chapter 63: Chapter 55 The Colors of Nature (Please Vote, Recommend, and Favorite)

Angelica, this little maid, could it be that she’s actually interested in that kind of thing?

This maid is not behaving, she needs to be taught a lesson.

Qin Chu realized that Angelica was jealous.

He needed to soothe her... but he wasn’t good at coaxing girls... Qin Chu fell into deep thought, recalling how those scumbags on Earth would respond in such situations?

...

The master had never done anything improper to her; even the two kisses were initiated by herself, and it was her who had followed the master first...

But now the master was together with Miss Yekaterina.

Just thinking about it made Angelica feel awful.

She knew that her master was a Hero, a person of noble status, and having the fortune to remain by his side as a maid was already a lucky thing, and with the master’s status and his boundless potential, the number of outstanding women by his side would only increase in the future.

She understood all of this.

She thought she didn’t care, but when the reality played out before her, she discovered the pain in her heart was beyond imagination.

She might care about her master more than she thought.

After learning about what happened between the master and Miss Yekaterina, she trembled with fear. Angelica was very aware that for those with power and strength on the Sky Dome Continent, these were normal affairs, but she couldn’t help worrying that the master wouldn’t need her anymore if he had Miss Yekaterina.

After all, Miss Yekaterina was so beautiful, so strong, so outstanding.

And she was just a little maid.

A mere maid had no right to criticize the master’s actions, and the master wouldn’t like it.

Angelica knew this wasn’t good, but she couldn’t help it; her heart was really in turmoil. After speaking out, she regretted it, fearing her questioning might cause the master’s displeasure, making him angry.

There was no response.

The silence made Angelica’s agony even more intense.

She was afraid, her slender shoulders even trembling, like a prisoner awaiting judgment, the oppressive fear causing a numbness in her scalp.

She couldn’t help but timidly lift her eyelids, wanting to sneak a glance at the master’s expression and see if he was angry, perhaps already fuming, and wondering if he would hang her up and whip her fiercely... Ah, the master was really too frightening.

However, when Angelica peeked at Qin Chu’s face, she was surprised to find not a trace of anger on it. His lips even held a hint of a smile...

That smile made Angelica feel awkward.

She stamped her foot, "Master, you... what are you laughing at..."

No anger, that’s good.

Qin Chu chuckled and lifted his right hand. After a brief hesitation, he indulgently messed up Angelica’s emerald-green hair into a disheveled mess.

Angelica, somewhat annoyed, covered her head with both hands, staring at Qin Chu: "Master, what are you doing?"

Qin Chu tilted his head:

"Are you a fool?"

"Huh? Am I a fool?" Angelica defended her intelligence: "I am not, I am very smart. Being able to stand out and become a Saintess Candidate already proves I’m not a fool. And among the four Saintess Candidates, I’m one of the top, definitely not a fool."

"If you’re not a fool, then stop thinking nonsense here."

"You heard Nicholas’ conversation, so you should know, although it’s embarrassing, yesterday I was the one who got dragged in..."

Though once inside the room, the roles had reversed.

But, there’s no need for Angelica to know that.

Angelica nodded her little head, recalling the situation. It seemed to be true, according to Nicholas, that Miss Yekaterina got drunk yesterday and occupied the master’s room, and the master wanted to leave but was pulled back.

Huh? So, was she wrong about the master?

Then, Angelica saw Qin Chu’s expression gradually becoming serious.

"Angelica..."

"I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again today!"

"You are the only person I trust in this world, understand?"

"No matter what happens, no matter how much time passes, there will always be a place for you by my side."

Angelica placed her hand over her heart, struggling to control the urge to smile...

Actually, she didn’t care about anything else; she just wanted to hear that assurance from her master.

"At least right now, you are the most important person to me!"

This woman, she’s really worrying over nothing.

She and Rose Vesper, Yekaterina—they are absolutely impossible for me.

Of course, having an affair is possible, but there is absolutely no emotional involvement, and if there is, it’s only hatred.

Qin Chu’s words made Angelica very happy and reassured, the smile at the corners of her mouth was somewhat irrepressible, "Then, Master, why have you never with me——"

Her speech also relaxed quite a bit, but the doubts in her heart still needed to be asked.

Is it because my figure isn’t good enough, or am I not beautiful enough?

If that is really the case, then that would be a huge blow, after all, although just a maid, Angelica was quite confident in her figure and appearance.

"Neither, I just don’t want to hurt you, that’s all," Qin Chu shook his head, "You are beautiful..."

"Having you by my side makes me feel very fortunate."

"I’m also a man, how could I possibly have no thoughts about you?"

Such a straightforward reply made Angelica blush.

"But when you came to me, what was your condition? Full of injuries..."

"Yesterday was the same; how could I make a move on you at such a time? It would hurt you, wouldn’t it?"

Angelica’s cheeks were flushed crimson; she felt her heartbeat skyrocketing. The Master didn’t lack interest in her, he cherished and adored her, he just didn’t want her to get hurt.

In her soft golden eyes was a deep infatuation that couldn’t be unfathomed; to have met such a Master was truly the greatest fortune of her life.

Seeing the little stars in Angelica’s eyes, Qin Chu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he had managed to appease her, and he patted Angelica’s head, "Alright, go and change into a new set of clothes; we’ll go to the Holy Court together in a bit."

"What are we going there for?"

Angelica had some resistance to the Holy Court.

The Master had warned her before, not to mention anything that happened yesterday, if anyone asks, just say that a mysterious person saved her, but she doesn’t know who it was; she didn’t understand why they still had to go there.

His fingers ran across the collar around Angelica’s slender neck, and Qin Chu replied:

"It’s time... to remove your shackles."

...

Elsewhere.

Noon!

Umm...

A curious moan came from Yekaterina’s throat.

My head hurts so much!

Did I really drink too much yesterday?

She was awake, but her eyelids were heavy and somewhat unable to open; her whole body felt as if it had been through an intense battle, sore and exhausted, even more tiresome than fighting the Fierce Giant Ape.

Her throat felt as if it was blocked by something, sticky and uncomfortable for Yekaterina.

Her mouth was filled with a foul, strange taste; she really drank too much last night.

Drinking alcohol was enjoyable at the time, but the aftermath of a hangover was truly unpleasant.

However, Yekaterina was also confused; her alcohol tolerance was definitely not a problem, not to mention competing in drinking with humans, she could even outdrink demons.

In her fragmented memory, it seemed she hadn’t drunk too much yesterday, only three or four tanks from a five-liter keg... um, or was it five or six tanks?

In any case, around that number; in any event, it wasn’t too much.

Keep in mind, Yekaterina once had the record of cleaning out a bar’s entire stock; those amounts of alcohol were nothing to her.

After all, she was a Valkyrie, her body’s Fighting Energy had already reached the stage of circulating on its own, the alcohol poured into her stomach would quickly evaporate away, and the drunk feeling would not last for too long.

With a throbbing headache, the dazed Yekaterina lifted an arm, rubbing her forehead, and squinting opened her eyes.

Then she saw an unfamiliar ceiling; in the corner of her eye, she could also catch a glimpse of a messy room, the air carrying a strange scent...

At her side, there was also a hat with a natural style lying around...

A hat?

She never wears hats!
