A strange world

Chapter 630 Chapter 27. Annan’s Daughter

"I want to think about it..."

Annan temporarily rejected the request of the businessman from another world.

He was just an elite warlock, and above that, Annan was just the lord of a small town.

It shouldn't be his turn to enter the Lost City and investigate the source of the strangeness, at least it shouldn't be the turn of a foreigner from the northern middle-earth.

Annan only bought three leaves of the tree from another world for the time being and formed two teams. The Skeleton King made an appointment with the merchant to trade again in a week, and Annan would give him an answer then.

The traces of the merchant disappeared with the shrinking gray fog, and the tomb returned to normal.

"You are right..." Skeleton King commented on Annan's previous answer, "The rules of Lost City are completely different from ours, and everything we know does not work there."

"Didn't you want me to go to Strange City to find the princess before?" Annan deliberately teased.

"We were unfamiliar at that time, but now I know you are a unique human being."

The Skeleton King's soul fire swayed, and Annan also smiled.

It's really fun to be friends with other races.

"Shall we go back now?" Annan asked.

"The strange smell zone is very dangerous at night. Let's leave during the day."

"Then here..."

"It's safe underground."

Annan has nothing to worry about. Next to it is the Skeleton King who appears to be an epic but is actually a legend, two epic amulets, and the portal can lead to the ancestor's bedroom at any time.

If this can't even solve the weirdness on the edge of Lost City, I might as well join the weird camp.

The whole evening was uneventful. Annan was meditating, and Skeleton King was doing some simple experiments using purchased materials. They set out early in the morning and returned the same way.

When passing by a wooden house in the forest, Annan was lying in front of the window, waving to the wooden house in the distance.

In the nearby cemetery, wild flowers are blooming.

…

When Annan returned to the necropolis, the tomb of the Crimson Princess was filled with joy and laughter.

"You didn't see how proud it was when it thought I believed it. It's really funny-" The Scarlet Princess held her belly and laughed non-stop.

"What's wrong?" Annan has never seen her so happy.

Princess Crimson quickly regained her ladylike demeanor and gently smoothed her hair from her forehead: "I met a monster who called himself Queen Mother. He said that you are a human being lurking around me and that there is a terrible conspiracy..."

As she spoke, the Scarlet Princess laughed again, while Annan tried hard to keep her smile from revealing her secrets.

"Does it think I will believe it? How can humans be kind enough to help us!"

"Indeed...and it doesn't matter even if I am a human, it doesn't know that you are not that resistant to humans."

"No!" Unexpectedly, the Scarlet Princess denied Annan's statement, "I will never allow humans to be around me! Don't make such a joke, David..."

Is this the arrogance of the vampires?

"I thought you didn't hate humans that much..." Annan didn't say anything about "Seventh Night".

Princess Crimson said softly: "That is also as our servant. Human beings cannot be trusted, and all short-lived species cannot be trusted... If humans dare to put their hands into my power... I will chop off their hands and cut off their The limbs become blood slaves.”

Annan thought that the Scarlet Princess would be very close to humans and would not even mind falling in love. It seems that he imagined the alliance with the Scarlet Princess too simply...

"...Tell me about the guy pretending to be your mother. How did it appear?"

The Scarlet Princess described in detail the outline and dialogue of the mother figure she saw in her scarlet dream.

"What if it's really your mother?"

"This is impossible."

Princess Crimson denied: "It said that it had been watching me silently, but it couldn't even tell me what I had experienced in the past. Also, my family is the oldest blood clan, so she should call herself 'I'. The key is……"

A blush crept onto the Crimson Princess's cheeks.

"I know you can't be human."

Annan changed the subject: "I caught a vampire, do you want to interrogate it?"

"You did well, David!"

Princess Crimson took Lucy and asked the skeleton servants to lead them to the dungeon in the Necropolis.

In the cold dungeon where will-o'-the-wisps were floating, the Scarlet Princess saw the vampire who had caused trouble for her at the banquet the day before yesterday.

She originally wanted to exile the guy who attacked David to the territory of the rat people after the interrogation was over - this was a punishment more terrible than death for a vampire. But after approaching the cell, she heard the vampire lying on the ground in a panic, mumbling words such as "Odris... this is impossible...".

"you……"

Lucy interrupted the Crimson Princess and asked the vampire: "What did you say?"

The vampire raised his head, his scarlet eyes full of fear: "Crimson Princess... Your Highness, I never thought that the prince would be by your side all the time."

Princess Crimson suddenly became excited: "Did you see my father!?"

"I saw it, he has been protecting you..."

…

Four leaves of a tree from another world. Annan gave three slices to Olmedo and one to Irelanze.

He didn't dare to give it to Tedder. As the elder of the Elf Royal Court, she knows many secrets, and maybe also knows the knowledge about the tree in another world, but just because she is an elder, she will give priority to the ethnic group...

It wouldn't be a good thing to let a group that owns a World Tree know about another World Tree...

You can't tell the elves, at least not before forming an alliance.

Irelanze has no problem. Her long life made her realize that apart from love, there was nothing worth caring about.

Give Olmedo three slices to test distance and time, and give Irelanzer one slice to conduct research.

"I'm going to see how the interrogation goes."

Annan then follows Maggot to the dungeon.

Annan was worried about the dream that Scarlet Princess had...

It would be fine if that dream was the same conspiracy as the vampire attacking her. If that dream was really the Scarlet Queen... wouldn't she know her purpose of sneaking into her daughter's side?

The key is the attitude of the Crimson Princess.

At first, Annan thought that Princess Crimson knew something. "Seventh Night" and the name David were both hints... but it turned out that Princess Crimson really didn't know and only liked her superficially.

She was just willing to watch this kind of love story between vampires and humans, but she didn't want it to happen to her.

She does not lack the arrogance of the ancient vampires compared to other vampires.

Annan's original plan to confess to the Scarlet Princess when he found an opportunity in a few days came to nothing.

Annan's footsteps echoed in the dungeon. Scarlet and Lucy looked at Annan emerging from the darkness, and then a scene that shocked them appeared: the vampire in the cell knelt on the ground and expressed his surrender to Annan: "Lord Odris, I, Frances Gallego, swore a blood oath to be forever loyal to the Stuart family..."

Princess Crimson looked at Annan blankly.

"Father……?"
