Chapter 8.2 - The Eighth Night Part 2
The Eighth Night Part 2
Joyce gritted her teeth. Fine! I know you are a minion for that Great Demon Dragon! I wont talk about it anymore, okay?! x.
Joyce stopped talking and squatted down angrily. She pulled out the weeds at her feet as if all the weeds were Sean.
She was taking it out on the weeds, but she saw the man next to her gracefully squat down and pull out the weeds next to her. Joyces somewhat angry expression slowly disappeared. She smiled and looked at him. Are you here to make up with me so soon?
Who Sean stiffly raised his head at her words. However, looking at her eyes that were curved into a smile, he swallowed the words of denial back into his stomach.
He looked down and stayed quiet.
Have you heard? The farmers on one side were whispering, I heard that Princess Isabella of Saidan arrived at the capital, but His Majesty did not greet her. How could the princess put up with that when she is born with a silver spoon?
How can Saidan compare to Karnia? The King of Karna is the best king in the world.
But I have heard that Isabella is the most beautiful person in Saidan, and she is King of Saidans beloved daughter.
Joyce listened carefully to the people talking about what was happening in the capital. She had her doubts about it. Without a doubt, Isabella should have received a grand reception when she arrived at the capital since she was the female lead
But how could the King of Karnia not even hold a reception for her?
Unless
Joyce lightly poked the little knight beside her. She used a voice that only they could hear to ask, Is your King suffering from a curse?
Seeing that he didn't understand, Joyce explained, For example, did he become old or disfigured from a curse that can only be lifted by a kiss of true love from the princess?
As he expected, he heard Joyce ask, Is it sweet?
Mhm.
It was only then that Joyce took a big bite of the apple and ate it with delight.
The farmers observed their interactions and wore a hearty smile.You two have such a good relationship!
Sean chewed in silence, not knowing where they saw how they had a good relationship.
In the evening, the considerate farmers invited them to stay for dinner. Joyce was naturally very happy, and helped them out. The atmosphere was full of joy until the food was served.
Joyce looked at the table full of splendid food and used her knife and fork like everyone else. Sean was not interested in the food on the table, but sat down with her.
Just as Joyce was cheerfully eating with everyone, her knife and fork suddenly fell to the ground, and she covered her lips in surprise.
Madam Joyce, are you okay? a farmer asked with confusion and concern.
Joyce lowered her head. She continued to cover her lips without answering. Everyone kept on asking questions out of concern, but Sean had caught a glimpse of her fangs under her hands.
He was stumped. Vampires exposed their fangs only when they longed for blood. It had only been a few days since the last time Joyce had blood, so there was no reason for such a response.
The farmers wife sitting next to Joyce approached with concern, and it looked like she was about to lower her head and ask if she was okay. Joyce retreated, if they discovered that she was a vampire
She was looking a little flustered, but Sean gently put his arm around her shoulder and helped her to her feet.
Sorry, my wife is not feeling well.
When the farmers wife heard this, her eyes flashed with understanding. She was pleasantly surprised and exclaimed, Your wife is pregnant!
Joyce, who quickly followed Seans lead to stand up, slipped and nearly fell to the ground.
