Redeem The Villain [Quick Travel] Chapter 47
byChapter 47 Tentacle Monster 11 Celebration
Crunch——
The dark red wooden door opens from the outside in.
“Your Highness.” Xi Bai’s palms were empty, and a pair of big hands from inside the door took the little tentacle monster over.
“Well, you go down and rest.”
“Yes.”
“Have you had your meal?” Ewell said in a gentle voice, holding Merik into the study.
Xibai closed the study door and returned to the palace where the prince lived. Taking care of Merik not only made him not tired, but also made him feel very happy.He thought for a while, then turned back to the room that simulated the bottom of the sea.
Merik held his fingers while observing the decoration in the study, and nodded: “To eat, brother Xibai prepared two kinds of fried meat, and also ate vegetables.”
Not much to eat though.
Hearing this title, Evel’s eyes were light. It wouldn’t be a big problem to call Xibai brother according to Merik’s growth rate, but it was not okay for him to raise Merik as his own child. Thinking in his heart, he said: “You can’t call Xibai like this.”
“Why?” Merrick was placed on the desk and looked up at him in confusion.
Evil replied patiently: “He is much older than you. According to human relations, you should call him uncle.”
According to the way humans calculate age, it is only three years old this year, but according to the way under the sea calculates its age, it is already twenty years old.
After thinking for a while, Merik asked: “Should Merik be three years old, or twenty years old?”
The age calculation method of underwater creatures is different from that of humans. In the background given by the system, Merik is already twenty years old.
Ewell had never thought of such a way to calculate age before checking the information, but according to human age, and its current situation, Merik is still a child.
He smiled: “You are still young.”
There were no interesting items in the study except piles of affairs and books on the walls. Merik and Ewell played for a while and then lay on the sofa alone to entertain themselves.
Not long after, it was panting from all the effort and completely spread out into a small pancake on the sofa. However, its pair of small eyes kept looking around to see if it was still looking at the humans working not far away.
On the table not far in front of it was a very heavy book with a brown cover.When Merrick entered the study, his attention was attracted by the wall of books.
Its little eyes rolled.
Not long after, bursts of splashing sounds continued, and even though he was concentrating, Evel couldn’t help but look up.
He saw Merik spread out on the sofa, with three tentacles holding a heavy book firmly in front of him, and one tentacle vigorously turning the pages.
The sound that kept coming was the movement it made by turning the pages.
Evel couldn’t help but think of the last scene in his previous life. In the ruins of Farolon, a giant octopus had deathly eyes, and its gloomy gaze slowly swept across his body.
At that time, Merik could speak, and he repeated in a plaintive tone that he wanted to destroy Farallon.
There are only a few left in the mountain of affairs in front of Ewell to be dealt with. Fisli’s celebrations are pretty much the same every year, and there is no need for him to go check it out in the short term.
In the silent room, Ewell suddenly asked Merik: “Merik, do you want to learn human writing?”
The sound of turning books stopped suddenly.
After a while, a small head stuck out from under the thick books, looking at him with bright gray eyes.
“I…I have never learned human writing.”
Ewell stood up and walked to it: “No one is born literate. Even humans need to learn. Do you want to learn?”
Ewell was too serious. When he was serious, the smell around him would be different. The pair of amethysts seemed to be attractive, making Merrick unable to move his eyes away.
Merik rested his head on the book with some embarrassment and said humbly: “I’m afraid I won’t be able to learn.”
Ewell smiled: “It doesn’t matter, you are very smart.”
It can’t understand the text, the content of the book, nor the meaning of the pictures in the book. It just wants to read something new to relieve its boredom.It is said to be smart, but can it really learn human writing and speak human language?
Merik asked: “After Merik can read, can he also speak human language?”
“Of course.”
“Learn!” It wants to speak human words.
But this was not the case. Ewell thought that teaching Merik to learn the language would be an easy task, but he forgot that Merik was still in his infancy and could not pronounce complex pronunciations.
But Ewell remained patient, repeating every word several times.
After a whole day, Merik was able to make simple sounds.
This was much faster than Ewell imagined, at least Merik no longer made a grunting voice.
Ewell fed it some water and said, “Merik, please remember that you can only speak in front of me, okay?”
Merik thought for a second, then nodded heavily.
In the next few days, Merik would come to the study with Evel every morning. Most of the time, Evel could take time to teach Merik to learn writing and language.
Evel took a sip of water and watched Merik’s tentacles crookedly writing words.
“Dong dong——” There was a knock on the study door.
Merrick immediately stuffed the small notebook under the sofa, and said that the study should be kept confidential.
Ewell waited for it to hide before saying: “Come in.”
Xibai opened the door and said respectfully: “Your Majesty, Your Majesty wants you to go to the main hall.”
“Okay.” Ewell turned around and asked Merik: “Do you want to go with me?”
Merik was not actually afraid of Eita, but he could feel that Eeta didn’t like him much, so he hesitated for a few seconds without responding.
Ewell never thought about forcing it to do anything, so when he saw this, he just said softly: “Then let Xibai play with you, okay?”
“Okay.” Merik responded softly.
It wasn’t until the door was locked that Merik looked away and sweetly called Uncle Xibai.
Although the name has changed, the voice heard in Xibai is still the same grunt.
Xibai: I don’t understand, but it must be calling me, hehe.
In the huge mirror, Evel slowly buttoned the buttons with one hand. He lowered his head slightly, and a pair of purple eyes fell on the cuffs, perfectly showing his tight profile. He was wearing a pure white and complicated tuxedo with silver threads, and the clean black dress pants made his body more colorful. He looked like a noble boy who walked out of a fairy tale, making people unable to take their eyes away.
Ayita put her hands wide open on the back of the sofa, and her bright red eyes stared at the face that was roughly the same as his through the mirror: “You have only worn one color since you were a child. You and your mother are exactly the same.”
Ewell glanced at the king of a country in the mirror, and immediately looked away when he saw his extremely gorgeous red dress.
He was taciturn and Aita had long been accustomed to it. She didn’t care whether the other party responded or not, and said to herself: “This celebration is very grand. Noble ladies from twenty-three countries on the continent of Croleta will attend the small gathering on the second day.”
Ewell moved his fingertips slightly and adjusted his tie.
“More than twenty years ago, I met your mother at this banquet. Your mother was wearing a pure white dress, standing quietly in a corner. She was quiet and beautiful, drinking a glass of white wine alone. Later I found out that it was the water she found specially, hahaha… If it hadn’t been for a beam of light, I would never have been able to see such a beautiful woman in my life.” Ayita paused.
Ewell thought for a moment, and there was some speculation in his mind.
Eita said she felt down for a few moments at the end, returning to normal every few seconds.He raised his eyebrows, evil and wanton, and his words were full of imperial coercion: “All the noble ladies will attend this banquet this time. You continue to select the one you are interested in to be your future queen.”
This sentence is repeated every year. Evel frowned slightly and before responding, Eita added: “If you have to refuse this time…”
He didn’t say the consequences.
Ewell understood.He has never been interested in this kind of thing. The noble lady is indeed stunningly beautiful and has an almost perfect etiquette tutor.But he has a cold temperament, and now that he has experienced life and death, he has too many things to do.
It had never been in his plans now or before.
As usual in his last life, he directly rejected his father’s request without thinking. This also led to Aeta, the king of a country, openly opening his mouth to find a suitable queen for him across the entire continent during the celebration. This caused a huge commotion among the nobles of Croleta, especially the banquet on the second day of the celebration which was extremely lively.
Evel picked up the pair of silk gloves at hand and slowly put them on his slender fingertips, interrupting his father’s words: “I will consider it.”
Ayita stood up in surprise. He stopped gently not far from Ewell, and kept rubbing his chin with his hands, as if he couldn’t believe that the other party could let go: “You should have agreed a long time ago. You can only choose one person to settle the matter this time. It’s up to you when you want to marry.”
“Yeah.”
The tuxedo vividly presents Ewell’s wide shoulders and narrow waist figure. The attendants wear unique brooches and decorations for him, making this outfit more able to set off his temperament.
The celebration can be regarded as the most important event on the entire continent. As the prince of Fisli, Ewell has even a single hair styled very delicately.A fitting session would take several hours. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the dress, the attendant slowly took off his tuxedo jacket and then stepped aside.
Ewell gently opened the cufflinks of the dress, and just when he was about to continue, there was a sudden exclamation outside the door.
“Ah ah ah! Save me! Uncle Xibai, please save me!”
This was followed by several unclear barking sounds.
Eita:?
All he could hear was high-pitched purring.
Ayita: “This is the one you brought back…”
It was Merik. The moment he heard the cry for help, Evel ignored the fact that his cufflinks were half open and his clothes were disheveled.He rushed out of the room and the next second he heard a burst of laughter.
Xibai chased them with a panicked look on his face, while comforting Merik: “Don’t be afraid, little Momo, I will carry you down soon… Haha! Stop!”
Evel stopped in front of the main hall. Merik was floating on the flowers dozens of meters in front of him, his body rising and falling like water waves, and he quickly jumped a few meters away every few seconds.
If he walked to the other side of the flowers at this time, he would see Merik’s eight tentacles curling up a few strands of hair on the head of a large dog with very little effort.
And it can float on the flowers, naturally because this big dog is constantly running and jumping.
“Merrick is going to lose his grip!” Merrick used all his strength to suck the milk. He didn’t dare to grab the dog with force at all. The dog under him looked like it had been carefully maintained. The golden hair was shiny and smooth. Even if he tried to use force, the tentacle suckers could not catch him.
The next second——
The big golden dog seemed to sense a hint of danger, and it instantly stopped where it was and stopped moving.
Xibai took advantage of the opportunity and quickly hugged Merik down, but before he could speak, he heard a cold voice suddenly sound behind him.
Ewell’s eyes were cold: “Hallu, come here.”
Xibai slowly turned around and saw that His Highness’s face was horribly dark, while King Ayita beside him was watching this scene with interest.
Ayita looked at the sluggish little octopus with the corners of her mouth raised, then turned to look at Evel beside her.Even he rarely saw Evel angry.
Haru lowered his head and moved to Ewell’s side with slow steps.
Haru is not their pet, and the puppy adopted by the chef only lives in the yard where the servants live, and occasionally goes to the training ground of the knights to race with the knights.It has never appeared near the main palace, so Aeta has always acquiesced that it remains in the palace.
Ewell had only seen Haru in the training ground. For some reason, this little dog dared to steal bread named Tangere in the training ground, but he was extremely obedient when he saw him.
Merik was carried to Evel’s side by Xibai. Its light gray eyes looked at Evel cautiously. When it saw that humans were willing to look at it, it immediately smiled in a flattering way and said: “It smells bad…”
