Black Knight From Blue Star

 Yggdrasil petals...have become very, very expensive things now.

 It was already very precious, but after the World Tree fell, it became even more precious.

 After all, not many people know that World Tree is still alive.

 In most people’s perception, World Tree is dead.

 Hence, the current price of World Tree petals has reached an exaggerated level.

Those powerful nobles who are entering old age and approaching death long for this thing to the point of madness.

 As long as you listen to whoever has it, you will grab it if you can’t buy it.

 They will only give up if you eat it and it is gone.

 Otherwise, I will always think about getting the World Tree petals into my stomach.

 “You didn’t tell Victor about this?” Hardy was a little surprised.

Mrs. Anna looked around and whispered, "Can we go inside to chat?"

This kind of time is actually a bit inconvenient, but looking at the petals of the World Tree in the opponent's hand, Hardy still agreed.

 When the door was closed, the room was dark, with only the faint starlight coming in from the window, making it barely possible to see things in the room.

 As Mrs. Anna came in, the room was filled with a faint fragrance.

 Mrs. Anna placed the silver box on the table and opened it.

 Two petals of the World Tree, emitting a faint purple light, appeared in their eyes.

Hadi has seen this thing a lot and doesn't think it's strange at all.

 After all, there are more than 20 pieces of this thing in his secret room.

 But in Mrs. Anna's eyes, there was excitement and possession.

Hadi looked at the other person quietly, waiting for the other person to speak first.

 "Hardy..." Mrs. Anna looked up, her eyes full of strange emotions.

Like joy, but also guilt.

Hardy thought for a while and asked: "Who are you looking at through my appearance? My father, Old Hardy?"

Mrs. Anna's expression was stunned for a moment, and then her expression gradually lost: "That's right, although you look almost exactly the same, you are not him, he is more gentle."

Hardy smiled softly: "You were the one who abandoned old Hardy back then. It's not appropriate for you to look like this now."

He is not interested in the love triangle between Hardy's biological mother, father and Anna, and he does not want to know about it.

Mrs. Anna's expression became a little embarrassed.

 She took a gentle breath and said, "I didn't tell Victor about these two petals of the world."

 “Why?” Hardy was a little curious.

Mrs. Anna said somewhat depressedly: "If Victor knew about it, he would definitely give these two petals to his nephew."

 That is, the children of Peter.

 “So, you want to keep it all to yourself?”

Mrs. Anna's eyes were full of shame and guilt, but she still met Hardy's gaze and said, "I really want to eat it all to myself, but you also saw this thing, so... let's each have a piece."

  Women are very, very concerned about their appearance.

 Lady Anna only ate one petal of the World Tree.

 But just in this scene, her appearance returned from that of thirty years old to about twenty-two years old.

The beauty of returning to childhood is no different from drugs to women.

 Can't quit.

If Hardy hadn't also seen these two petals, and if Hardy hadn't been so strong, Mrs. Anna would probably have found a way to swallow the petals.

Hardy smiled softly, not sarcastically or mockingly, just calm.

"I don't need the petals, you can eat them all by yourself." Hardy stretched out his hand and raised it slightly, and then said: "I won't talk about this to anyone."

Mrs. Anna was stunned and looked at Hardy in disbelief with her eyes wide open.

 Outside, the price of World Tree petals has reached a very outrageous level. It can even lead to small-scale conflicts.

 But here in Hardy, he behaves so calmly.

She didn't dare to believe it, and she didn't dare to gamble.

 Even in her opinion, Hardy had a deep meaning in doing this.

 It’s definitely a trap.

 “So, what’s the price, Hardy?”

Mrs. Anna’s eyes shone like argon fluoride in the darkness.

 It is a bit like a fox, but also a bit like a poisonous snake.

 “There is no price.” Hardy shook his head slightly.

Mrs. Anna took two steps forward and squatted in front of Hardy, but put her hand on Hardy's abdomen: "Is this it?"

She opened her mouth slightly, as if she was about to come forward.

 But Hardy was faster. He reached down and grabbed Mrs. Anna's hair, lifted her up, and made her look at him.

 “I said, there is no price.”

This action was actually very humiliating, but Mrs. Anna didn't care. She looked steadily into Hardy's eyes, as if she wanted to read the boy's mind.

"I don't believe it." Mrs. Anna said in a weak but determined tone: "Everything in this world has a price. In order to become a noble lady, I gave up my favorite childhood sweetheart. In order to become a powerful professional, I gave up my ability to have children, and now I will definitely give up something very important for the sake of youth.”

 “Your morals, or your shame?” Hardy asked with a smile.

"No, it's my love." Mrs. Anna looked at Hardy's face and murmured: "I have only loved one man, your father. But now... I can fall in love with you."

 The brain circuitry of women has always been very strange.

 Whether you love it or not, it doesn’t matter whether it has anything to do with the petals of the world tree.

Hardy couldn't understand it, but that didn't stop him from refusing.

"No, I'm not interested in your love." Hadi waved his hand and said, "You can eat those two petals if you want. I won't mention it to anyone."

 “Why?” Mrs. Anna’s eyes showed strong uneasiness.

 She is used to transactions and costs.

 Suddenly...someone was kind to her for free without any cost. She was not used to it.

　　　will be even more uneasy.

Hardy keenly noticed the uneasy expression on Mrs. Anna's face. He sighed slightly and said, "If I have to say it, I hope that another woman can also stay young, another you."

"another me?"

 Mrs. Anna’s eyes widened again.

"The other you is my woman." Hardy said helplessly: "She is in your body. When you are young, she will be young. When you die, she will die. So I am helping her, not I’m helping you, do you understand?”

Mrs. Anna had a look of disbelief on her face: "Is that why?"

 “Need any other reason?” Hardy asked rhetorically.

Mrs. Anna shook her body subconsciously: "Is it that simple?"

Hardy did not answer and was about to drive her away when another woman's happy laughter suddenly sounded in the room.

Anna in the elemental body 'emerged' from Mrs. Anna's body.

After she appeared, she immediately hugged Hadi and kissed him several times excitedly: "So you are so good to me."

Hadi subconsciously hugged the elemental body and pinched the soft flesh behind her.

"Um!"

"Well!"

 Two voices sounded together.

　Hardy looked at his arms and blushed.

 Looking at Mrs. Anna next to her, she was also blushing, with her hands behind her back, her expression indescribable. (End of chapter)
