Demon King Priest

Chapter 132: Prelude (1)

While Ulysses and Rasputin and Cherie were having breakfast, Aya was talking to Arcelia about Ulysses in Arcelia's room,

"So? Did my master's dream surprise you?"

"Yes, I never thought that as a demon king, he actually has a dream of becoming a priest, and he is actually a gentle and kind boy. To think that someone like him would be a demon king, anything really can happen in this world." Arcelia said with a sigh.

"But you don't seem surprised at all. When you saw me and Helen, you were shocked for a while." Aya said strangely.

"If you didn't fully restore my memory, I would be surprised. But my memory has returned, so I don't think I would be shocked by anything anymore." Arcelia said calmly, a trace of sorrow flashing across her green eyes.

"It looks like you have a terrible past. Can you tell me about it?" Aya was a little curious. What exactly had the knight of the holy sword in front of her experienced that could stop her from being shocked by anything?

"It's already the past. There is no point in mentioning it again. People who have died will not come back to life, and what happened will not be remembered anymore. Let it be the dust of history. Now I only exist to take care and guard the poor child." Arcelia said lightly.

"Oh, in that case, you can forget it. I'm not the kind of person who likes to dig into people's past. As long as you protect the master according to your oath... Ah! The master seems to be coming. He might have something to tell you. I'll leave for a while." After speaking, Aya turned around and flew out of the room.

A few seconds after Aya's purple figure disappeared in the corner of the corridor, Ulysses, who had finished breakfast with Rasputin and the others, came to Arcelia's door with the pink rabbit in his arms, knocked gently on the door, and asked,

"Arcelia, are you there?"

"Is it Ulysses? You can come in." Arcelia's clear voice came from the room.

With a "click!" Ulysses stretched out his hand, pushed open the door of Arcelia's room, and walked into her room.

Arcelia has changed a lot from when Ulysses saw her in the morning. Her pale face had returned to the ruddy appearance of a normal person, and there was no tremor in her voice. It seemed that as she said, she had a Phantasm that could automatically heal her injuries.

And the sea-blue and white-silver combat outfit on her had disappeared somehow, replaced by a blue-and-white dress outfit. The base tone of this dress was blue like the sea, but the pure white fabric was used on the chest part. A small piece of the fabric above her slightly plump chest was cut off, revealing a little bit of the girl's snow-white breast, which contrasted with the snow-white fabric of the chest. On the shoulders and at the lower edge of the skirt, a few strands of golden threads were embroidered as embellishments.

Although the whole set of clothes was not decorated with precious stones, and Arcelia did not wear any jewelry such as earrings and necklaces, it naturally exuded a gorgeous and noble feeling. Unlike the vulgar dress of gold and silver that nouveau riche and a small number of lower-class nobles liked, this was a dress that only truly distinguished aristocratic women would like to wear. Although Ulysses hadn't paid much attention to the clothes of the nobles, he still felt that the Arcelia in front of him was different from ordinary knights or nobles.

Arcelia, wearing this gorgeous dress, sat quietly on the bed. Seeing Ulysses staring at the dress on her, she asked strangely,

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"Ah! Nothing, nothing!" When Arcelia said so, Ulysses immediately realized that it was actually very rude to keep staring at a girl, so he quickly found a topic and asked,

"Miss Arcelia, how are you feeling now? ?"

"I said just call me Arcelia, my body is almost healed. In a few dozen minutes, I can enter the combat state at any time. Is there any reason why you came here?" Arcelia said calmly.

"Sorry, I almost forgot. Actually, I wanted to ask you how to raise a rabbit." Ulysses smiled awkwardly, then raised the pink rabbit in his hand.

"Ah!!!" Seeing the pink bunny in Ulysses's hands, Arcelia's face immediately showed a look of shock, because Ulysses had just held it in her arms, so she didn't notice it for a while, but after Ulysses lifted it up, all her attention was immediately focused on the little life in front of her.

"What's the matter? Arcelia? Is there anything wrong with this pink rabbit?" Ulysses looked at Arcelia in shock.

"Uh! This pink rabbit is actually..." Arcelia said eagerly, but halfway through, she stopped again, with a slightly sad look on her face.

"Actually? Does it have any disease? If that's the case, it has to be treated quickly!" Ulysses said anxiously. Although he had only been in contact with this pink rabbit for a short time, he was already very like this lively and cute little life that liked to get close to him. He absolutely didn't want it to get sick.

"Mhm! It's not sick, it's a very healthy child." Seeing the anxious expression on Ulysses's face, Arcelia's face showed a touch of relief, and then said hesitantly,

"I was surprised because it is exactly the same as the pink rabbit I used to raise. Can you let me take a closer look?"

"This of course you can, but it seems to be very scared of people. It seems that apart from me, it doesn't want other people on this ship to touch it." Ulysses said hesitantly.

"I think it's okay. They probably have no experience of raising pets. Come on, come here, my child." Arcelia gently stretched out her hands, and called out softly to the pink rabbit in Ulysses's arms in an infinitely gentle voice.

"Ah!" To Ulysses' surprise, hearing Arcelia's gentle call, the pink rabbit in his hand leaped gently into Arcelia's arms, and then closed its eyes, seeming to be enjoying her hand's temperature.

Arcelia gently hugged the pink rabbit in her arms, slowly stroked its soft fur, then moved her mouth to the rabbit's long ears, and whispered with a voice that only she could hear,

"Poor child, sorry! Mom failed to take good care of you last night. You can rest assured that from now on, no one will hurt you. Mom will bear your responsibility as an apostle."

"Miss Arcelia really is a girl who is proficient in keeping pets! This pink rabbit seems to like you very much. Even Helen, who used to keep it before, can't hold it properly." Ulysses was slightly surprised.

"Probably. But this kid also likes you very much. Most of the people who can be liked by small animals are kind-hearted people. It seems that you really meant it when you said that you want to become a priest." Arcelia smiled, then looked at the embarrassed teenager in front of her.

While Arcelia was chatting with Ulysses, on an island about tens of kilometers away from Ulysses, some big, burly men were drinking wine with each other.

The place where they were located was a very rudimentary port. There were several large ships with skull flags parked in the port. However, one of these big ships was different. Compared with other ships, this ship was several times bigger. This ship's whole body was black. There were many shiny steel plates nailed to the ship. There was a sharp steel spike with a length of five or six meters in front of the ship. Judging from the appearance, it should undoubtedly be the most powerful ship amongst these ships with the skull flag.

"Hahaha! Blackjack! Hasa, you lost. Now drink those three glasses! I said earlier that it will take you a hundred years to defeat me!" The burly man who was speaking had a red beard. In front of him was a deck of cards.

"Damn it! How come I lost four times in a row! It's so odd! Habi, just you wait, it will be your turn next time!" The one who was drinking was a black-bearded man who looked a bit like the red-bearded man. After gulping down three glasses of wine, he gritted his teeth and picked up the cards in front of the red-bearded man.

"Haha! Let's continue! I will make you drink until you can't get up."

"Hahaha ! We are invincible! We are formidable! We are the masters of the ocean! Those people on the continents are pussies!"

A burst of noise came from the group of big guys, the sound was so loud that it could be heard hundreds of meters away.

When these big guys were drunk, a little black figure leaped out of the sea riding a white dolphin. After she looked around, she directed the white dolphin under her body to swim to the big ship nailed with steel plates. Then she climbed onto the deck in a hurry, and then got into the cabin.
