‘Big brother?' Ulysses looked around in confusion. He had never known a girl who would call him that way in his memory.
The owner of the voice was not far from him, just five or six meters away from him. This was an aristocratic little girl whom he seemed to have met before. She had blonde hair as dazzling as the sun and blue eyes as blue as the sky. She was wearing a purple dress covered with clean white lace, and she was looking at him with surprised eyes. The white butterfly hair accessories on her head were constantly shaking, which showed that she was very excited.
‘Wait, that blond hair, that butterfly hair accessory…' Ulysses finally knew why he felt familiar with this little girl. Wasn't she the little noble girl he saved last time! But to be honest, in the last incident, the maid who gave up her life to save the little girl left him a much deeper impression than the little noble girl. That was why he didn't recognize her immediately.
How did she recognize him? Ulysses was curious about this. He was sure that she didn't see his face clearly that night. The light at the time was not good, and it took less than tens of seconds from her hearing his shout to being stabbed by the killer.
"How did you recognize me?" Anyway, since she recognized Ulysses, he didn't intend to avoid her on purpose. After all, she did not see him wielding the sword of the demon king to slay the killer. He could make up a story about a level seven master that did not exist to deal with the questions of the little girl, which was just like how he said to Rasputin.
"It's really you! Big brother! I thought I was dreaming! Thank you so much for saving me." The face of the little girl who received Ulysses' affirmative answer turned red with excitement, she was overjoyed.
"My pleasure. As a light mage, it's not a big deal to heal your injury. You haven't told me how you recognized me." Ulysses was still curious about how the little girl recognized him.
"Light mage? Big brother, you are really strong! You can actually use light magic to take out that killer. I heard from my father that the killer seemed to have the power of level 6 or higher and a very scary immortal body. Doesn't that mean that you already have level seven strength to destroy him? Ah! Such a young man has level seven master strength, maybe not many people on the continent can do it." Ulysses was shocked by the words of the little girl. How did she know that the killer was taken out by him? It should be impossible for others to know about this.
"Uh! How do you… how do you know that the killer was taken out by me?" After hesitating for a long time, Ulysses asked this sentence, he really wanted to know the truth.
"The note you left told me. I found you because of the amethyst bracelet you left. Ah! By the way, I haven't told you my name yet! My name is Cherie. Thank you again for saving me." The little girl slowly recovered from her excitement, and held the corner of her skirt to perform a formal noble greeting gesture. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
The note he left? Amethyst bracelet? Ulysses' head was confused when she heard Cherie's answer. He didn't think he had left her anything before leaving? Besides, he had never bought any bracelet, where did he get the amethyst bracelet for her? Thinking of this, he glanced at Cherie's wrist, she was indeed wearing a beautiful amethyst bracelet. But why did that bracelet look so familiar?
‘Wait wait wait! Amethyst bracelet! Could it be…' Ulysses raised his left hand to take a look, then glanced at Cherie's wrist. Sure enough, the two amethyst bracelets were exactly the same.
"Aya!!! What did you do that night!!!" Ulysses sent a spiritual wave of unprecedented intensity to the bracelet.
But Aya who would always respond to him didn't respond to him this time, and no matter how many spiritual waves Ulysses sends out, it was useless.
When Ulysses was not paying attention, Cherie walked quietly to his side, grabbed the corner of his sleeve, and began to confide to him what happened to her after Ulysses left that night.
"When I woke up that night, I was really scared! There was only blood and Liss' body beside me. Mom and Dad went out, and the servants at home were on vacation temporarily, so no one would come to help me. If it weren't for the encouraging note you left me, Cherie would have died in fear. Waah..." She actually started to cry, it seemed that what happened that night really left a big shadow in her heart.
"Don't, don't cry." When Cherie cried, Ulysses panicked. He didn't know how to deal with a crying girl at all.
"Waah! Big brother is a big liar. You clearly wrote on the note that as long as Cherie is a good girl, you will come to see Cherie! But Cherie clearly stayed at home like a good girl, but you didn't come to see Cherie. Liar, big liar! Waah!" Ulysses' verbal comfort didn't help, Cherie cried even harder. And from crying on his arms to the point where she hugged his chest. Apparently, she used Ulysses' light mage cloak as a towel to wipe her tears.
"What is that guy in the mage cloak doing with that noble little girl? Is that guy bullying the little girl? Look at that little girl, she is crying like that..."
"Yes. In my opinion, the one wearing the mage cloak is probably the bodyguard of the little girl's house, and he is bullying the host's daughter while the host is away..."
"No, I think the young man in the mage cloak may be the brother of the little noble girl, but he was born to the stepmother of the little girl. So he dares to bully the little girl in the broad daylight..."
"Anyway, that little girl is really pitiful. How can the guy in the mage cloak bear bully her like this!"
With more and more people on the deck, Ulysses, who was held by the crying Cherie, was getting more and more attention. But almost everyone thought that he was bullying Cherie, who looked so weak.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, there were even a few aristocratic teenagers who wanted to "save the damsel in distress". In a hurry, Ulysses couldn't think that much, and directly hugged Cherie's young body in his arms.
"Ah!" Cherie was taken aback by being suddenly picked up by Ulysses, but soon fell silent. Because Ulysses said something in her ear,
"It's not convenient to talk on the deck, let's go to my room and talk more in detail."
"Yes, big brother." After Ulysses said this, Cherie also felt that there were so many people. It was really embarrassing to cry in front of so many people, so she let Ulysses carry her into the cabin with a blushing face.
