I am on the evil side? I am turning the tables!
Chapter 253 Just because it’s you
"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"
Su Tang's body has recovered a lot. Although he only has the physique of an adult orc, he is much better than when he just woke up.
If she wants to regain her strength, Cedric, who still has a trace of authority in her heart meridian, is the best choice. At least there will be no unknown rejection phenomenon.
However, Su Tang was not sure whether Cedric was willing.
The relationship between the two is less than that of lovers, but more like comrades-in-arms who share the same hatred and a common enemy.
After resolving Su Tang's issue, the rest of the people were busy dealing with the problems left over from the war. After all, they couldn't do something as brutal and cruel as destroying a city, as that would cause a lot more trouble.
Only Chris didn't have to do anything.
Su Tang went downstairs to get a glass of water and returned to the room. She saw that there was still light coming from the next room. She thought that Chris had a habit of having nightmares. Although it had gotten much better when he was with her, it seemed to have gotten worse since they came out of the Holy City.
Thinking that he was still awake so late, Su Tang pushed open the door of the next room, and saw Chris sitting on the balcony looking outside.
The light from the night pearl could not illuminate the entire room. The place where Chris was sitting was shrouded in shadow. Hearing the door open, he turned his head slowly, and his silky silver hair looked like a falling galaxy.
"Why aren't you asleep yet? Did you have a nightmare again? Do you want me to put you to sleep?"
As she spoke, she walked over, put down the cup of water, walked skillfully towards the soft bed, and pulled open the quilt to make some space.
Chris also understood, stood up, walked towards her, got into the bed, and rested his head on her chest.
"What did you dream about again?"
Every time he had a nightmare, she would always speak to him in such a soft and gentle voice. Chris closed his eyes, and his nostrils were filled with her faint fragrance, which was like the scent of flowers with a hint of fruit sweetness.
"I dreamed of my brother and those dead orcs."
"I thought that after losing everything, you were the only person I cared about. I didn't want to care about anyone else's opinion, but the truth is, I still feel fear and am afraid of their condemnation."
Su Tang stroked his soft hair, closed his eyes and leaned back on the pillow.
“Do you think we did something wrong?”
Chris pulled her down and snuggled into her neck, his warm breath hitting her sensitive skin, causing an itchy sensation.
"I have not participated in any large-scale battles, and I rarely go out, but I know that this was also the case when the Temple fought against the Bloodthirsty Race in the past. There are victories and defeats, and this is normal."
"But no matter how I try to excuse myself, the fact that I am a traitor cannot be changed."
The neck was wet, and the cold liquid slid down to the collarbone.
“It seems that no matter what I do, it’s always wrong. It was always wrong before, and it’s always wrong now.”
Even though he tried his best to suppress it, Su Tang could still hear the tremor in his voice.
"No, Chris. You are like an angel to me. If it weren't for you, I would probably be thrown into the arena and become a slave girl trampled on by anyone."
"I have always been embarrassed to tell you that I have been using you, but you are still willing to help me. I am not like your mother. I am a very bad person, very bad, very bad."
"Yeah, I know everything." Chris replied calmly.
He knew that she was kind to him with a purpose, but so what? He was willing.
She was the moonlight he had been looking for.
Because I love you, I am willing to accept everything you do for me, whether it is true or false.
"Sing me a song."
No matter how much he did for Su Tang, he would only make trivial requests.
How could she refuse such a Chris?
Her red lips parted slightly, and the night pearl in the room was still lit, but it still couldn't stop the person on the bed from falling asleep. She hummed a familiar lullaby, just like the countless nights she had accompanied him to sleep, warm and plain.
Have a good night's sleep.
After breakfast, Su Tang took Chris to the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion.
The Lord of Dawn City, Kain, was locked up alone on the first floor. The dungeon was lit only by sporadic dim stone lights. Chris walked beside her holding a night pearl.
Sensing the strong light approaching, Kain opened his eyes. His purple hair was stuck together in clumps due to blood clots, and his gilded eyes were dull due to the severe injury.
His limbs were tied up. The chains that were used on the beast kings of the foul-blooded race in the past now became shackles that bound him. The chains had limited restraining power for the beast kings who held power.
However, there is no problem at all in restraining a seriously injured Beast King.
It is very difficult to capture a master like Kain alive, but everyone has weaknesses.
Erlan threatened him with the residents of the city and forced him to bow his head. This was what Su Tang had planned from the beginning. Facts have proved that threats always work for people with loyalty.
"Nice to meet you, Lord Mayor."
Su Tang entered the cell and Chris brought a chair for her to sit on. Facing the gloomy gaze of the man in front of her, she did not show any fear.
"I have some unfortunate news for you. The messenger team you sent out has been intercepted by us!"
Kaiyin's pupils shrank slightly, as if she didn't expect them to be so alert.
"The temple will fight back sooner or later. The city lord's order in Pasak's hand can also control the gate of Dawn City. Do you think you can stop them?"
Su Tang didn't come here to argue with him about these things, and she stopped exchanging small talk with him and told him her problems directly.
"I don't want to beat around the bush when talking to a smart person like you." Her eyes narrowed slightly, and the slim black dress added a veil of mystery to her in the dark night. She looked elegant and calm, and her aura didn't indicate that she was a female at all.
However, Kain didn't think that this female who came here to interrogate him would be a simple person.
As a contemporary of the goddess of the previous generation and also holding a high position, Kain must know much more than Cedric, a marginal figure.
"Who were the people who forced the goddess Lin Jing? Why did you do that?"
Lin Jing is a goddess, not an ordinary low-level female. Moreover, she is worthy of being included in their side. Even if the temple is evil, they would not use such a method that would definitely bring hatred.
"How do you know this name?"
The temple's names for the goddesses are basically just pronouns, and even their names are not recorded in the books. How does this female in front of him know this?
"Now I'm asking you questions."
Kaiyin lowered his head, looking like he didn't want to communicate with her.
"We promised you not to touch the ordinary people in the city, but we didn't promise not to touch your subordinates! Lord City Lord, is the life of your subordinates more important, or is this secret more important?"
"You!" Kaiyin was so angry that he coughed up blood, and even his fangs were exposed uncontrollably. His nose was straight and the contours were clear. On such a handsome face, even the spitting blood was a sign of the beauty of battle damage.
"Have you thought clearly?"
