Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 239

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 239]

“…The other day he said that he would use four pure-blooded Harriers for a knighthood. You said, can this be given?” said an old nobleman in a burgundy dress.

“Here, you already have enough rabbits to eat.”

“And that guy is a wizard, and he scrapes the pork roast oil for use,” muttered the others.

Ciel turned to the front desk, where Luana had already registered and handed him the keys.

“I’m going to take her to take a bath and change into pajamas,” she said. “You go and see the room first.”

Charles agreed. According to the marking on the key, he came to the room in the middle of the corridor on the third floor. The dark purple gold-trimmed cashmere carpet along the way was very comfortable to step on. The well-dressed tenants were drinking and dancing in the hall at the end.

He unlocked and entered the house, and saw a spacious and luxurious room.

The double bed is covered with a thick goose down duvet and the pillows are covered with silk.

Charles threw the wood into the stove and lit it, and soon he smelled a pleasant fragrance.

There are twenty or thirty manuscripts in the bookcase, all of which are heroic chronicles, martial arts songs and poetry collections.

The bedside table holds premium wines, emblazoned with the emblem authorized by the Chetra family in Rain Bay Hall.

There is a complete set of military chess on the table, as well as gold candlesticks and silver kettles.

The ceilings are high and glass doors at the end lead to a balcony with street views outside.

It was a small palace, no matter how cramped it was, Ciel took off his armor and put on the black casual clothes provided on the hanger. The material was deerskin, which was quite comfortable to wear.

He picked up a round pastry in a silver basin and devoured it in a few bites, so sweet he wanted to taste the icing on his fingers, but no, that’s what kids do.

Half an hour later, Luana brought Grace up.

Grace changed into a pale pink nightgown. She was completely new inside and out, white and clean, with red hair streaked, exactly like a noble lady.

As soon as she saw this luxurious room, she was stunned, her eyes shifted from side to side, her breathing became rapid, and she was instantly frightened, not daring to move.

Luana took off her coat and hung it on the hanger.

“It’s really luxurious here.” Charles lay down on the bed.

“This mansion has a history of more than 190 years, and it is timeless. There is a committee that supports it all the time.” Luana said, “The old nobles on the west coast disdain to discuss matters in the square or in the palace. Make yourself look like a nouveau riche and would rather come here to meet.”

“People on the West Coast look laid back.”

“More than that, they are residents of the capital. Of course, they have the style of the capital to distinguish themselves from outsiders.” Luanna said contemptuously.

“Relax,” Charles looked at Grace, “you have to adapt to this environment.”

“Are you going to rape me?” Grace looked at Ciel, “I’ve thought about it for a long time, I can adapt, sir.”

“No.” Ciel’s expression changed drastically, “No, why do you think so.”

“No one’s going to touch you, you just have to watch what we do.” Runa hung on Ciel hungrily.

“Neither.” Ciel pushed Luana away. “Don’t do this, it won’t affect you well.”

Grace went to the expensive furniture and stroked them dumbly: “How much do these things cost”

“I’m afraid a chair costs a hundred gold coins,” Luana said.

“So much!” Grace was shocked.

“And you’re stepping on a velvet carpet that’s six gp a foot.”

“Ah!” Grace immediately lifted her bare feet, she had no shoes to wear.

“Don’t scare her,” said Charles.

Grace turned her head to see the pastries in the basin, and couldn’t help walking over to eat them.

Seeing her thin appearance, Charles guessed that she had probably never eaten anything more nutritious than brown bread in her life.

She filled her mouth with food, her eyes widened, and she was very happy.

“Eat slowly,” said Charles.

“I’ve never eaten something so delicious.” Grace licked her fingers.

“Come here.” Luanna patted the space between her and Ciel. “The child no one wants, come here now, you will have more money to spend in the future.”

Grace crawled onto the bed obediently and came between Luana and Ciel.

They were silent for a while.

Ciel looked at Luanna, Luanna looked at him, and Grace looked at one of them from time to time.

“It feels weird,” Luana said.

“Yeah, like…” Charles sighed.

“Are you husband and wife?” Grace asked.

“It’s almost there, it’s almost there, it’s almost the wedding,” said Charles.

It’s just that as a demon hunter, I don’t know when I can calm down and hold a real wedding celebration.

“No.” Luanna stroked Grace’s face. “He has a different heart. He will marry someone else and leave me.”

Charles felt a chill down his spine.

“Everyone is known to be responsible for the past,” Gladiu said.

“You’re like my new parents…” Grace whispered, “…can I call you Mom and Dad?”

“We are more like parents than your parents,” Luana whispered. “Compared to those useless trash, we are much stronger, strong enough to give you a second life. Now rest well.”

“Well.” Grace nodded, then closed her eyes, “This bed is big and soft…”

Charles took a deep breath.

Seriously, Grace was really like his and Luanna’s daughter, and he was lying on the bed, filled with a strange sense of satisfaction.

“It’s called family,” Gladiu said.

“After sunrise tomorrow, you will be as noble as the prince’s daughter.” Luana took Grace into her arms and wrapped her hands around her head, “We will prepare you the most luxurious dress and the most beautiful jewelry. , teach you how to not show flaws. Each of them will be amazed by you.”

“Like a dream.” Grace closed her eyes and murmured.

“Yeah, but at least it was a good dream,” Luana said.

Charles glanced at the candle and wanted to blow it out, but the darkness was always disturbing, so he decided to keep the candle light.

Chapter 306 Makeover

After waking up, they took Grace to buy clothes.

In the town’s most prestigious clothing store, tailors take out the dresses for the spring festival.

“Look how beautiful,” boasted the old tailor in a leather apron and a dog-skin hat to Charles, who showed him a gorgeous dress in bright red with black trim, who touched the outside of the dress. Fate, skilled tailors cut those handmade embellishments beautifully.

“Black is death, red is blood, I like it.” Luana laughed, “And it’s still exotic silk.”

“You can’t say that,” said the old tailor, bewildered. “Black stands for solemnity, and red for passion.”

“There’s no color more like blood than this,” Luana contended. “It’s a dress that celebrates death, and my children will wear this dress to witness a splendid murder.”

“Yeah, I wouldn’t do something like that.” The old tailor couldn’t understand Luanna’s morbid thinking.

“It makes sense no matter what.” Charles rounded up the situation.

“Anyway, these silks came from the east, from the great river valley to the sea, and all the way to the west coast. There are plenty of clothes for spring, but not many so suitable for your daughter. Please pay fifty full. Gold,” said the old tailor.

“I have gold.” When Ciel came out, he brought a few hundred gold coins with him, but he didn’t count them.

“I’ll pay, anyway, I want to go back.” Luana took out the heavy money box, and randomly grabbed two handfuls and sprinkled them on the counter.

The old tailor gathered the gold and put it on a scale to weigh it. Seeing that there were about fifty gold coins, he swept the gold into the counter.

Grace watched the gold swirl between their fingers intently.

“Money, isn’t it great,” Charles said.

“You have a lot of money,” Grace whispered.

Hearing this unfamiliar name, the old tailor couldn’t help but look at the three of them, but as a native of the capital, the old tailor still showed a tolerance that he was used to, and waved his hand: “There is also a winter season for this distinguished child. Hats, folding fans and cotton underwear are included in our store.”

“Ask her if she has a favorite style,” Luana said.

“Anything will do, I…don’t pick.” Grace said.

“It can’t be done,” Luana frowned, “if you don’t know, you must not say you don’t know, you must remain silent, serious and calm, and then stare at the old man with your glassy eyes, make him feel ashamed, let He got down on his knees and let him be subdued by your will.”

The old tailor scratched his forehead with his finger, sighed, turned and walked into the back room to find extra accessories for Grace.

Grace hugged the entire black and red skirt and went to change clothes in an airtight compartment next to her.

Charles scanned the delicate clothes hanging all over the house, short skirts, long skirts, open-back skirts, silk skirts, dresses, all kinds of clothing were fixed to the wall with wooden clips, some of which were not suitable for this season. , hang out individually to show the craftsmanship of tailors, others are prepared for spring, decorated with bows and dried flowers and look perfect for celebrations.

“Don’t you want to buy it?” Charles asked.

Luana looked down at her woolen skirt and stroked the buttons with her fingers.

“Back then,” she said, “I passed by here, about ten years ago, and I thought the happiest thing in the world was buying a dress from a store and putting it on. Now I have money, but I don’t want it anymore. .”

“Some thoughts, not satisfied at the time, will become regrets later.” Charles said.

“I don’t care,” Luana said.

Ciel wanted to say something else, but Grace had already happily ran out of the back room. She was wearing a skirt of the right size and saluted them with a clumsy movement that she had learned from somewhere: “Guian.”

“Wrong.” Luanna corrected immediately, she raised her skirt with both hands, and slightly bent her knees, “This is a lady’s salute, but it is also used with acquaintances and relatives. When facing other dignitaries, priests or people younger than you Long old lady, you have to raise your skirt as high as possible, almost showing your thighs to each other, so you can do the same with your favorite young knight, he will never forget your socks to skirt in his life The white between them. And when you meet kings and miracle workers, you have to lift your skirt and bend over to reveal the secret between your breasts in order to attract their attention.”

“Uh—” Grace was a little uneasy, “Do we have to do this?”

“Our mission is to capture those men who are superior to us and let them be our driving force, willing to follow our lead, and in order to achieve this end, any means are acceptable.” Luana said.

“I understand!” Grace nodded vigorously.

Ciel had no doubt that Luana would teach Grace bad.

The old seamstress came out of the back room, made Grace turn around, put on a flamboyant hairnet, taught her how to tie a perfect bow tie, and decorated her back sleeve with a jeweled buckle shaped just so that her thumb and forefinger joined. The circle is so big.

“Whatever your purpose is,” declared the old tailor, “even if she now claims to be the claimant princess of the Romanian family, everyone will believe her.”

He handed a palm-sized folding fan to Grace, and she didn’t know where to put it.

“Perfect.” Luanna tucked the folding fan into Grace’s sleeve, “Even in winter, a lady must take out a fan, cover her face, smile and talk to others, but others can only see Your lovely eyes can’t see your deformed mouth.”

“Understood.” Grace nodded vigorously.

“Thank you very much.” Charles greeted the old tailor.

“Next time.” The old tailor smiled. “Children of this age grow up very quickly.”

After a pause, the old tailor said to Charles again: “What about you, do you want to add some new clothes to yourself?”

“Give me a black trench coat,” Charles said. “The kind that looks watertight.”

Afterwards, Grace walked to the street. Ciel had seen her walk in a habitual manner of shrinking and bowing her head before, but now she held her head high and her expression was high, as if she had completely entered the state, and could even be regarded as arrogant.

In Shire’s view, a new set of clothes can indeed greatly change a person’s temperament. First, one should dress neatly and then behave properly.

“You’re a beauty, take advantage of you,” Luana said. “Say goodbye to your past, and it’s better to forget about it completely. A beautiful girl like you can climb to a high position in this world, as long as you Relentlessly reject all suitors who are not good enough, and focus only on the best gems you can touch.”
