Demon King Priest

Chapter 33: The Boy and the Girl Meet Again (3)

The big brother's arms are so warm. It feels like dad's arms.' Cherie, who was lying in Ulysses's arms and feeling his body temperature, felt like she was in her father's arms for some reason. Because of the sense of security of lying in Ulysses's arms, and the crying just now consumed her too much energy, she unexpectedly fell asleep in Ulysses's arms.

"Hey! Hey! Wake up! What do you want me to do if you fall asleep!" Looking at Cherie who was sleeping in his arms, Ulysses didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. Was she not afraid that he would sell her?! Even if he was her savior. She shouldn't trust him so unreservedly! This appearance showed that she was not at all defensive against him. What did Aya leave her that made her feel so fond of him? No, this kind of unreserved trust in him could no longer be described by fondness, it should be said to be "admiration".

"But a child is a child. It is sometimes enviable to be able to express their feelings so frankly." After returning to his room and putting Cherie on the bed, Ulysses let out a sigh. For an adult like him, wanting to cry had become a very extravagant thing. Ulysses thought despite that he had just turned eighteen.

"Aya, she has fallen asleep. There is no one around, so explain to me what is going on!" Ulysses could not wait to start calling Aya, he really was really confused by Cherie's thing.

"Okay, okay." A purple light flashed. Aya's figure appeared in mid-air.

"What did you leave her? Why did she become so, so..." After thinking for a long time, Ulysses couldn't find a suitable word to describe Cherie's unusually intimate attitude towards him.

"I only left her a comforting note and an amethyst bracelet. It's you, master, who threw a poor little girl like her on the street full of blood. Don't you think it is too much?" Aya interrupted Ulysses unceremoniously.

"Uh..." Ulysses didn't know what to say for a while. Indeed, he only cared about Rasputin who had not been healed at the time, and did not pay attention to Cherie who had been cured by him. To him, Cherie would naturally walk back to her home not far away when she woke up. But he seemed to overestimate a little girl's ability to withstand this kind of thing. Cherie said that she was almost scared to death by the blood and corpse after she woke up. From this, there was nothing wrong with Aya's way of leaving a comforting note to her. But why did he always feel that something was wrong?

"Then what did you write on the note you gave her? And, why did you have to give her an amethyst bracelet that looks exactly like the one you turn into? Can't you give her something else?" Ulysses said.

"I gave her the bracelet because I had only that bracelet with me at that time. In terms of what was written on the note, it was..." Aya said the content of the note again.

"What's this? The lovely little princess? The big brother who always guards her from afar? As long as she is a good girl, I will visit her? No wonder she is so intimate to me. It's all your fault!" After hearing Aya's words, Ulysses didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Is it bad for her to be so intimate with you? As a qualified demon king, of course there must be a large number of admirers. Back then, Lord Astaroth had tens of thousands of admirers! She should be proud of becoming your first admirer." Aya finally revealed her evil plan. The things she gave Cherie really had ulterior motives.

"No wonder you would give her that amethyst bracelet! It seems that you have a bad intention from the beginning! Aya, even if the demon king must have admirers, you don't need to find such a little girl! It looks like you are deceiving a child!" Ulysses laughed angrily when Aya revealed her evil plan.

"Everything starts from young. Don't you think this first step is perfect? She can fall asleep in your arms unsuspectingly. This is the best proof that she trusts you completely." Aya smiled evilly.

"Enough, Aya, change into a bracelet. Without my permission, you are not allowed to change back." Ulysses became a little irritated.

"Yes, Master, I won't disturb your time alone with this lady. You can do whatever you want next. But please be gentle! The little girl's body is very fragile. Haha!" After an evil smile, Aya changed back to a bracelet again.

"Aya!!! You..." Ulysses almost exploded with anger at Aya's last words. However, Aya, who had become a bracelet, seemed to be in a state of not hearing again, and she did not respond no matter what Ulysses said.

Ulysses, who couldn't get Aya's answer, finally felt defeated and sat down on the bed.

Time slowly passed, and because Cherie was still asleep, Ulysses didn't want to leave her to go to the deck alone. The bored Ulysses had to look at Cherie's sleeping face to pass the time. He couldn't see it clearly at night last time, and now he could take a closer look.

Cherie was actually a very beautiful and lovely little girl. With her smooth and extremely long blond hair and her perfect face, she was completely the embryo of a peerless and beautiful girl. Ulysses could even predict that when she grew up, she would be surrounded by countless young nobles. It was not impossible to become a queen even.

"Hmm!" As if feeling Ulysses's gaze, Cherie slowly opened her big blue eyes. She who had just woken up was still a little confused. After looking around with a confused gaze, she finally fixed her gaze on Ulysses's face.

"Ah! Big brother! This is so embarrassing! I, I actually fell asleep! I'm so sorry!" Cherie finally remembered what had happened. She had actually fallen asleep in Ulysses' arms. And this was probably the bed in Ulysses' room.

"It's okay. You seemed too tired after crying. That's why you fell asleep in my arms." Ulysses just smiled at Cherie.

"Ah! What time is it now! How long have I slept?" Cherie suddenly thought of a crucial question.

"It's about noon now. You probably slept for about two hours." Ulysses thought for a while and answered Cherie's question.

"That's not good, I need to go back to my room as soon as possible! My butler must be waiting in the room very worried! I told him that I would come back soon!" Cherie hurriedly jumped off the bed.

"Tell me your room number, and I'll take you there." Ulysses planned to take her back.

"My room number is one hundred! Ah! By the way, I don't know your name yet. Big Brother, please tell me your name." Cherie was very happy when she heard that Ulysses was willing to send her back, and she grabbed Ulysses' sleeve corner again.

"My name is Ulysses, you can just call me Ulysses. I think you may not need me to send you. Because your room is next to mine." Hearing Cherie's room number, Ulysses smiled bitterly.

Fate sometimes really liked to make fun of people.
