[Beauty and the Beast] Rose Castle

At this point, if I still don't admit that I have a close relationship with the first queen... I'm pretending to be stupid.

It seems that I am really her.

For a while, I couldn't help feeling mixed feelings.

Before entering the palace, you have to pass through an arcade supported by Roman columns.In the evening, the giant luminous pearl was covered with a thick dark cloth, and the light suddenly became very dim.There is no fire at the bottom of the sea, but the sea people cannot do without the existence of light.Therefore, the "Lighting Officer" came into being, which was served by some deep-sea creatures that can emit light.

Unlike the magic lamp shaped like a jellyfish, a "lighting officer" can emit limited light, so "lighting officers" often act in groups.Just like now, hundreds of jellyfish float above the pearly white palace complex, glowing with a faint blue light.

Walking into the palace, the floor is inlaid with shells and pearls, and the magnificent history of the establishment of the Ocean Kingdom is drawn on the golden dome.The maids were dressed in fishtail-like clothes, holding magic lamps in their hands, standing quietly on both sides.

Lambert sat at the head of the long table in the restaurant, with a special napkin on his lap, and the four corners floated gently with the water.He lowered his head slightly, flipping through the documents on the table indifferently.A blond-haired, red-skinned marine man stood below, looking at him nervously.

After a while, Lambert threw the document to him and said with a little approval: "Not bad."

The red-skinned man replied excitedly: "Thank you for your appreciation! Thank you for your appreciation!"

"You go down first, and you will come back tomorrow."

"Yes! This subordinate will leave first!"

I don't know whether it was because of the reaction of the red-skinned man, or because I have already confirmed that I am the first queen. The moment I met Lambert's eyes, I spit out a string of bubbles nervously, and then remembered that in the culture of the northern ocean, This is quite rude behavior, no different from spitting on land.I couldn't help covering my mouth in annoyance, my ears were burning hot, and I couldn't raise my head to meet people.

Fortunately, Lambert didn't say anything.He pointed to the lower right seat: "Sit down first."

I sat down with flushed cheeks, straightened my back, and put my hands neatly on my knees, as if eating with a respected elder.

"I didn't get to know you well last time. You said that you left home for too long because you wanted to see the world. Then, can you tell me where you have been and whether you have encountered any danger." Speaking of this, He glanced at the book in my hand and smiled, "Or, you can talk about whatever you want."

His attitude is too gentle and patient, completely different from the indifference and alienation faced by the red-skinned man.I found that as long as I was in the same room with him, no matter what he said or did, I would feel like crying!impulse.He quickly lowered his head to remove the napkin, but before he could spread the napkin on his knees, tears were already floating in the sea water one by one.

"Yes... sorry, I lost control again."

"It's okay." His tone was always gentle.

In order to alleviate the embarrassment of inexplicable tears, I told some interesting things about traveling in Europe.Fortunately, I have been to enough places, and I can’t finish talking for a few hours, otherwise I would spit bubbles and cry again, and I would have no face to reconcile

He had dinner normally.

Lambert has been quietly listening to me, and every now and then he throws a well-placed question to keep me going without acting like a one-man show.Occasionally, he also briefly shared his insights.A few words have benefited me a lot.He is indeed the smartest and most knowledgeable person on the bottom of the sea, and many of his views are more far-sighted than my father.While chatting, I forgot my original purpose, wishing to write down all the confusions I encountered in life and ask him to help answer them.

He chuckled lightly: "Did you take me as a teacher?"

"With His Majesty's knowledge, you can be anyone's teacher you want."

But he shook his head, signaled the maids to serve the meal with his eyes, and said, "But I don't want to be your teacher."

He didn't say subtext, and I already understood what he was trying to say.I paused for a long time, considering my words: "Your Majesty, today I saw some... pictures from my previous life. Perhaps, I am really the queen of your first life, but no matter what, it was a long time ago gone."

Speaking of this, for some reason, my heart also began to ache: "I read the official history in the library for a long time, and I probably know what kind of person the first queen is... You must admit that her personality is different from mine. Too much. I heard that she was born in a rural area and did not receive a good education. I don’t want to slander people of humble background, but you must know that experience determines character, and character determines destiny. I have a different personality from her. When facing life When the road forks, it is absolutely impossible to choose the same road..."

He interrupted me suddenly, and his tone became a little impatient: "What do you want to say."

I took a deep breath and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, please accept the fact that the first queen is dead, and even if I am her reincarnation, I will not be her."

After the voice fell, the entire resplendent and resplendent restaurant fell silent, leaving only the dull sounds of the maids serving meals.I bowed my head and waited for his answer, organizing the next words.I wanted to say after he answered, "But I have a good impression of you. If you are also interested in me, we can try to get along for a while." Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, he didn't speak. Can't help but look up at him.

!His facial features have not changed, but his temperament is suddenly as cold as ice, the color of his eyes gradually fades, and the blue-green glass beads are as cold and transparent.

Even though I already knew that he had two personalities, I was still taken aback when I saw this scene with my own eyes, and asked tentatively, "...is it Your Majesty the Second?"

He stared into my eyes and said in a cold voice: "I won't let you go, just die."

This sentence made me speechless for a moment, and it took me a long time to think of what to say: "...I don't want to leave, I just want to tell you that I may be the reincarnation of the first queen, but I can never be her herself. You Do you understand what I mean?"

I can't explain it to him.The powerlessness of punching cotton came to my heart, I supported my forehead, thought for a while and said, "Second Majesty, can you let Your Majesty come out?"

These words touched some nerve in him, and his eyes were sombre that it was almost terrifying: "If you have something to say, you must tell him."

"I just think it's easier to explain to him... Besides, aren't you the same person?"

"He is him, and I am me. In his eyes, I am just a beast sharing his body."

He squinted at me, his eyes turning red little by little.

"But!" Under the oppression of his cold gaze, I sped up my speech, "It is undeniable that some things in the previous life still affect my feelings and choices, whether it is the unfinished entanglements in the previous life, or you I am attracted to me, I am willing to spend a period of time with you. At that time, if you are interested in me, not because you like me because of the previous life... I am willing to be with you." Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief , I asked him softly, "Now, do you understand what I mean?"

He fell silent, and the hedgehog-like emotion finally calmed down.

After a long time, he whispered: "Tomorrow afternoon, I will take you to a place. At that time, if you still insist on this point of view, I will cancel the blood contract and let you go back to land."
