Chapter 22 (1/1)
The mysterious tower to the north of Longji mountain has basically accepted herself. This means that every time she looks at herself in the mirror, she doesn't scream anymore, and she doesn't want to pull her hair out in vain. After a few days, the daughter of the count's family finally got up from despair and madness. Even she was surprised that she could accept all this. From a beautiful noble girl to an ugly mouse like monster, no one can tell what changes her heart has undergone. And Gloria can find herself so quickly, the existence of anlina is very important.
As a blood clan, or a vampire, anlina has experienced and seen too many people lose themselves in various ways. Even she herself has been lost in a long time of loneliness. So she also knows how to get crazy people to find their reason, which is why cheese asked her to take care of Gloria. Of course, the words of exhortation didn't work every time, especially when Anna didn't know what kind of ”Rat Man” Gloria had become, she couldn't guarantee that Gloria would accept her present self. So when Gloria calmly walked out of the room and said hello to her in a hoarse voice, anlina had to admit that the Lord's daughter was much stronger than previously thought.
Gloria has lived in this mysterious tower as an observer for several days, and perhaps because of the incredible things in the tower, it is easier for Gloria to accept her changes. Having said that, Gloria has only been back and forth between her bedroom and her laboratory these days, and she has never been anywhere else in the tower. However, this does not prevent her from feeling that life here is different from normal society.
Doors that open and close automatically, lights that light up and go out according to time, magical servants who come and go, and unknown creatures that clean their dormitories once a day. And, of course, there was Miss anlina, who had been taking care of herself. All of these things are impacting Gloria's understanding of the world. Maybe a few months ago, she thought that the dragon was just a mythical creature. But now if someone said that there was a dragon flying through the window, Gloria estimated that she would only be surprised by the strength of the Dragon rather than its existence. She discovered for the first time that there are so many incredible things in the world, and she is now part of them. These thoughts changed Gloria's world, liberated from her life in the castle of Creek Valley, and once again recognized the vast universe. Both cheese and anlina didn't expect this. Originally, they thought that the young lady would go crazy all her life after such terrible changes. Even after collecting some body data of rat man, cheese did not expect Gloria to provide any help. This is one of the reasons why the mage decided to go to the count in such a hurry.
Meanwhile, the change of Gloria also aroused anlina's interest. All the mages are curious people. As the first ”Rat Man” born under the stability of the first manual worker, Gloria's everything is worth studying. So in the past few days, anlina has been very full. She and Gloria have been working together to build a new understanding of this new species of rat man. From muscle strength, facial sensitivity, to memory, and even eating habits have become the subject of their research. In just a few days, the number of manuscripts written by anlina has been very considerable. As a master of pestilence, anlina has a far better understanding of biology than ordinary researchers. Under her observation and collation, a comprehensive report on rat man has taken shape. Even anlina had a feeling that this report alone was enough for the adult task of an ordinary apprentice. And in these days of contact, anlina and Gloria quickly get familiar with each other, once as aristocrats, the topic between anlina and Gloria is unexpected. The natural elegance of the blood clan precipitated in the long time also made Gloria a a fan of the former. For Gloria, anlina is the first person to accept and accept herself as a rat man. For anlina, the beauty and ugliness of her appearance has long been meaningless. What she recognizes is Gloria's strong heart.
”Well, that's all for today's test. Let's get something to eat first. ” After recording the last few data, anlina announced the end of today's test. She threw it casually. The parchment with its contents was rolled up and put into the shelf with the date of the day written on it.
Gloria made a slight cheer. After she became a rat man, she ate more frequently and ate more than before. However, her physical fitness was greatly improved. They left the laboratory and went to anlina's room for dinner. The dim light in the room had no effect on them. Even Gloria found that she felt inexplicably comfortable in a dark place, just like lying in the warm sunshine before. Although it's a meal, but basically only Gloria is eating. Anlina is just slowly drinking the blood in the glass. After previous tests, the diet of rat man has been basically determined, which may be due to the retention of the original human digestive system. The range of rat people's eating has not changed much with that of human beings. If we have to say, the strengthened stomach bag can let rat people eat raw meat and uncooked plants without any burden. According to Gloria, in addition to looking at it It's a bit scary. The taste of raw meat is pretty good.”For the fifth day.” Suddenly said anlina.
Gloria stopped eating and looked up at the vampire girl. She knew she was talking about the time when the mage named cheese left. She was also curious about the relationship between the mage who saved her life and anlina, but the reality did not satisfy the girl's fantasy. She found that the relationship between anlina and cheese was more like a mother and a child.
”Are you worried about him?” Asked Gloria.
Anlina nodded, which she had nothing to deny.
”Yes, but I'm not afraid of his injury. He still has the ability to protect himself. I'm worried that the boy will grow up here after he was born. Apart from my teacher and I, he has never communicated with other people at all. He is bound to join hands with frost people on this task. I'm afraid that he can't cope with such complicated interpersonal relationships all at once. ”
Anlina said so much at once, but Gloria felt like laughing. She suddenly felt that the one sitting opposite was not a powerful blood mage who had experienced a long time, but a mother who was worried about her children who were away from home. This also made her think of her parents, who might have been very dangerous in the plague (Gloria was protected by the guards, but she did not know that the count's family had been killed). Gloria could not help but feel a little sad.
”I think Mr. cheese can take care of himself. You don't have to worry too much. ” Said Gloria.
Anlina nodded, but it seemed that something suddenly occurred to her. She looked at Gloria. Her Ruby eyes made Gloria a a little hairy.
”What's the matter with you?” Asked Gloria.
”Gloria, I need you to do me a favor, will you?”
