"Hm?!" Hikaru was a bit surprised, he seemed to find Amia's attitude extremely cold and serious.
He glanced at Anno, only to see her looking at him with apologetic eyes.
Amia continued: "I know our presence makes you uncomfortable, but I hope you don't make it difficult for Anno because of that."
"My lord, Anno, truly loves you, and I can assure you of that with my life. Perhaps the lives of me, Anyu, Aran, and Anio are not worth a penny in your eyes, but…"
"Okay, what are you talking about?" Hikaru interrupted Amia's words, his face filled with confusion.
Anno now approached Hikaru, tiptoed, and whispered in his ear.
When Hikaru heard what Anno just said, he sighed, then looked at Amia with pity.
When Amia saw his gaze, she lowered her head, and when her eyes met Hikaru's, her heart beat rapidly, as if it wanted to jump out of her chest.
Amia guessed that Hikaru was the one who hugged her earlier, but she quickly denied it. She believed that there was no way someone as noble as Hikaru would touch her, a dirty mixed-blood.
Hikaru sighed, then said, "Amia, it was all a misunderstanding. Come in, Saraya."
At this moment, Saraya came in, with a guilty expression on her face, as she clutched the corner of her shirt.
When Amia raised her head, she saw someone whose beauty made her dumbfounded enter the room.
Amia knew that it was Saraya, although they didn't interact much, Anno had told her that Saraya was special and that she was a legendary fallen angel.
No, she was not only a fallen angel; she was stronger than a fallen angel. It could be said that she was almost a god in this world.
Amia was a bit confused, because she was not sure why Hikaru called Saraya here.
"Okay, Saraya, you should apologize." Hikaru patted Saraya's head and said.
Saraya nodded, then looked at Amia and slightly bowed her head, "Sorry, it's all my fault."
"Heh?!" Amia was startled, she felt as if she had just been struck by lightning.
Who am i? Where is this? A fallen angel just bowed her head in apology to a mixed-blood? Surely this is a dream, yes, this is a dream…
Then… Not long after that, Amia passed out because her brain couldn't comprehend what was happening.
…
After a while, Amia woke up to see Anyu, Anio, and Aran all awake and sitting on the bed talking. Amia felt strange as she lay by her side.
"Ah! Amia is awake!" Anio, who saw that Amia had woken up, immediately spoke up.
Anyu tilted her head and asked, "Hungry?"
Aran approached Amia and helped her sit up.
Even though Amia sat up, her head still hurt a lot, like someone had just rung a bell next to her ear.
"What just happened?" Amia asked, her voice filled with fatigue.
"We were poisoned, there was poison in the cake." Anio said, she didn't seem to be concerned that she had just been poisoned, as her face was still showing a bright smile.
"How can you still laugh?" Amia sighed and said, "We can't stay in this place anymore."
Hearing Amia's words, the other 3 girls looked at each other and then at Amia with confused eyes.
"Why…" Anyu said, "There is a lot of food in this place…"
"Anyu, are you only thinking about food?" Amia sighed, she didn't understand why such a simple thing could not be understood by everyone.
"Why don't you understand? There is poison in the cake, which proves that the lord… no, someone wants to kill us. They don't want us here anymore."
Hearing that, Anio couldn't help but laugh loudly: "Hahahaha… Amia, you really are stupid."
"I…" Amia was mocked by Anio, so her face immediately turned red with anger: "Anio, who are you calling stupid?"
Aran now approached and patted Amia's head. Anyu also held her hand and said, "Amia, everything will be fine."
"Fine?! What are you people saying? There's poison in the cake we ate, why are you so calm?" Amia tried to speak, then gasped because she wasn't completely well yet.
That's right, Amia's body, which was already weak, became even weaker after being poisoned. Even though Hikaru had eliminated all the toxins from their bodies, they still needed time to recover.
Anio said with a smile, "Amia, ever since you were saved by the princess, you've always been a strong older sister who cares about everyone."
"I know you are tired, Amia. If you are tired, then rely on us, we are not as useless as you think."
Hearing Anio's words, Amia was startled. She kept thinking that Anio was a stupid girl who couldn't make sense of what was going on around her.
But it seemed that she was wrong, Anio understood all that she was doing and why she was suffering. It was not only Anio who understood what she was doing, Aran and Anyu both understood too.
Amia's eyes were slightly wet, and she felt like crying. Anyu immediately hugged her, and patted her head: "Amia, you've worked hard..."
Amia couldn't help it anymore and cried, her tears soaking Anyu's shirt.
After a while, Amia suddenly jumped: "No, I'm talking about cakes, they're poisonous. Someone wants to kill us, we have to…"
"Okay, Amia, it was just a misunderstanding." Anio said with a smile, "Saraya also apologised to us."
"Saraya?" Amia suddenly asked: "Is it the girl… Fallen Angel?"
"That's right." Anyu nodded.
At this time, the door to the room was opened again, and Anno and Nekomaly entered, Nekomaly also pushed a small trolley, on top of which were 4 bowls of hot porridge.
"Are you awake already?" Anno said with a smile, when she saw that everyone was awake, she felt very relieved: "Okay, eat some porridge, it will be very good for you."
Nekomaly stood beside the trolley, and she put the bowls of porridge from the cart on the round table in the centre of the room.
"Ah! Porridge? What dish is that?" Anio excitedly jumped off the bed and hurried to the dining table.
Anyu and Aran also got off the bed and went to the dining table. When they saw the steaming bowls of porridge, which gave off a wonderful aroma, it made them feel hungry.
"Hey!" Amia hurriedly shouted: "don't eat it!"
"Heh?!" Anio looked at Amia confused: "Why?"
"Because…" Amia wanted to say that there might be poison in the porridge, but when she glanced at Anno and Nekomaly, Amia couldn't say anything.
Anno smiled and said, "Don't worry. I explained everything to Anio, Anyu, and Aran,You were unconscious previously, so you didn't hear the truth."
"Truth?" Amia clutched the blanket that was covering her body, feeling nervous. Although she didn't know what the truth was, Amia had a feeling it would probably be horrible, making her scared.
"It may be hard for you to believe, but it's all Saraya's fault."
"Saraya? That fallen angel girl?"
Anno hugged her forehead and sighed, "That's right. She has the ability to make any food she touches or cooks have a deadly toxin in it."
"Because Nekomaly didn't know that, she asked Saraya to prepare the ingredients for the pastry you ate."
"Then…" At this, Anno sighed again: "Haizzz, apart from you, Aran, Anyu, and Anio, Tsuraguki was also poisoned."
Anno recalled that time, and she felt extremely lucky that she didn't eat the cake containing the ingredients Saraya had prepared. If not…
Anno did not dare to imagine that scenario; she was too embarrassed. However, Anno also thought that maybe her hidden buff helped her a lot.
If there was no hidden buff, Anno would probably be lying in bed like Amia right now.
Amia still found it a bit hard to believe, but at this point, Anio spoke up: "Saraya apologised to us and explained everything, so Amia, don't worry anymore."
Hearing Anio's words, Amia lowered her head. She felt that what had just happened was like a dream.
Anno approached and patted Amia's shoulder and said: "Okay, let's eat porridge, I promise there is no poison in the porridge."
Amia raised her head and stared into Anno's eyes and said, "No way, Saraya is a fallen angel, a legendary figure; she can't bow her head to apologise to dirty mixed-bloods."
Anno sighed and said, "No, you are mistaken. Saraya is not actually a fallen angel; no, she's stronger than a fallen angel. Even the Pope has to kneel down when he meets her, this place is different."
"This place has equality, so Saraya has to treat you like her relatives, not slaves."
"Amia, don't try to deceive yourself. You're not dirty, Kiki doesn't hate you, on the contrary, he likes you."
"Like… Like us?" Amia blushed and stammered.
"Heh?!" Anno looked at Amia's expression and smiled teasingly, "Ah! Looks like our Amia has already fallen in love."
"No… no, I'm just… I don't deserve him. I'm just a dirty, mixed-blooded person." Amia spoke hastily.
"Heh?! But you didn't deny that you like Kiki, right?"
When Amia heard that she knew she was tricked, her face turned red like a ripe apple. She hastily covered her face with a blanket so that everyone could not see her embarrassed face.
Anio now happily said: "Ah! If Amia becomes the Lord's mistress, then we don't have to worry about food and shelter."
"That's right…" Anyu agreed.
Aran also nodded.
"No! Stop!!! It's not what you think. I never liked the Lord." Amia shouted loudly.
Suddenly, she saw Hikaru standing at the door, looking at Amia with a bit of surprise: "Ah… me… if you don't like me, that's okay too. I just came to check on your health."
Hikaru really didn't know what happened. When he arrived, he found the door to the room open, and when he entered the room, he heard Amia scream that she didn't like him.
When Amia saw Hikaru standing at the door, her thoughts suddenly exploded, and she fell unconscious again.
Everyone saw Amia unconscious and looked at Hikaru.
Hikaru smiled apologetically and said: "I… I didn't do anything."
…
Saric Sanctuary, in an extremely luxurious and splendid room. The surrounding walls seem to be made of an extremely rare stone.
On the wall, countless streams of yellow energy flowed continuously and moved like plumes of smoke. The smoke streams gave off a magical light that could entrance people.
In this large room, a white fabric curtain divides the room into two parts.
That curtain was not thick, on the contrary, it was thin enough for others to see what was behind it; however, it was not possible to see behind it clearly.
At this time, a person wearing a black suit and a black face mask entered. He immediately knelt down and said reverently: "Holy Maiden..."
