The days when I was a maid in another world

Chapter 29 Reaching the destination

I followed the lord and Talis back to the original carriage, but the carriage is no longer what it used to be.

The glass on all the windows was broken, and the tables, chairs, benches, and the interior walls of the car were either broken or embedded with bullets.All the dead bodies disappeared, but the dark red spots on the carpet were still visible one after another.

I can imagine how fierce the battle was here at that time.The scene that was still so messy after sorting out can completely remind people of the scene at that time.

It seemed that a group of forces had ambushed in this station in advance, and after the train stopped, one person acted as a vanguard to assassinate the lord alone.After that person failed, he took advantage of the lord and the others to take care of the funeral, and then raided collectively.

In the situation of two-sided attack, the lord and Talis are still unharmed. I think this is not only luck, but also the information obtained in advance and the excellent physical fitness of the two.

Thinking of this, I glanced at Sterling who was walking ahead.He was tall and strong, but he was so quick and agile when he moved just now. It seemed that he must have practiced twice, and he was worthy of the military uniform he was wearing.

And Talis... I moved my eyes to her, feeling a little complicated.

In the past, I only knew that she was like a high mountain flower, fragrant and beautiful but repelling people thousands of miles away.Now, I think she is simply the legendary beauty killer, cold, ruthless, and can hit with a single blow.

Thinking of the assassin's throat pierced by a sword, I couldn't help shivering.

Fortunately, I didn't provoke her because I was dressed as a woman, otherwise... I reached out and touched my neck subconsciously.

Just as I was struggling with how to continue to stay in such a carriage, the lord and Talis had already walked through this carriage to the next one.I quickly followed up.

The new carriages are just ordinary carriages, with a lot of seats, and the interior is a bit old and simple, obviously for ordinary passengers.

At this time, there were no other passengers in the carriage, and it was unknown whether it was just like this before, or if they were temporarily removed.

The lord found a random seat and sat down, then looked at me... the teapot in my hand.

While I was a little speechless, I immediately stepped forward and put the teapot on the tea table in front of him, and said, "The tea is getting cold, how about I make another pot?"

He shook his head and motioned for me to pour him tea, and I quickly poured him a cup.After taking a sip, he frowned and said, "The tea you make is still so bad!"

I:"……"

Tea is inherently bitter and astringent, so what does it matter to me?If he wants to drink a good taste, he should drink freshly squeezed sweet juice.

The train started to move slowly again, but neither the station master nor the train conductor showed up. It was obvious that the lord's subordinates had already arranged everything.

"Tales, take Donnie to prepare lunch." The lord ordered without looking up while drinking tea.

"Yes." Talis replied with a nod, then glanced at me, beckoned me to follow her, and walked out first.

I followed her silently, thinking to myself that this is the lord's intention to dismiss me. If such a big incident happened, he would definitely discuss it with his subordinates.

Talis and I prepared everything in silence, keeping our mouths shut about what happened just now.

"Donnie," she finally spoke first.While stirring the soup in the pot, she said to me: "Were you scared just now?"

Although I am now dressed as a woman, I am a man after all, how could I lose my price in front of women.

"It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that I'm taken aback."

I diced the tomatoes as she instructed and poured them into the soup she was making.

"If you want to stay by the lord's side, you must be brave." She seemed to have something in her words.

I said in my heart: Brave a ghost, I think you have to die hard!Besides, who wants to stay by his side? Even if my life is not in danger, I don't want to stay by his side.As soon as I find the holy object, I will immediately pat my ass and leave!

She didn't say any more, and after finishing lunch, she took me back to the carriage where the lord was.

Not only did the lord's appetite not decrease, it seemed to be a little more than usual.I don't know how he was still in the mood to eat after being assassinated and ambushed just now.

Taliss ate very little, she only drank a few sips of soup, and she looked very worried.

I was a little spooked, but that didn't mean I was going to abuse my stomach, so I drank the rest of the broth.

After eating, the lord leaned back on his seat and closed his eyes to rest. Talis sat on the seat next to him, watching everything around him vigilantly.

Seeing her like this, I automatically backed away, found a corner, and curled up on the seat to take a nap in the morning.

The winter sun shone warmly on my body, and I fell into a deep sleep before I knew it.

At some point, I felt my body shake slightly, and at the same time someone called "Donnie" in my ear.

"My name is not Tang Ni..." I blurted out, and then I was awakened by my own words.

After sitting up suddenly, I looked blankly at the person in front of me.

"Donnie?" Talis's face gradually became clear in front of me, "It's time to get up, it's almost the end."

"Oh." I replied in a daze, rubbing my eyes with my hands.

I don't know if I really said what I just said.I have just experienced the assassination of the lord. If my identity is exposed again, I am afraid that I will not be able to clear up my suspicion even if I jump into any river.

Standing up, he saw that the lord was sitting there looking out the window—in fact, it was pitch black outside the window, and he couldn't see anything clearly except the lights of the city in the distance.

Talis walked back to him, talked to him in a low voice, and looked back at me during the process.

My heart skipped a beat, and I couldn't help but wonder what she had said to the lord, and whether she had said anything about me.

After the two of them finished talking, neither of them paid any attention to my intentions, so I temporarily put my mind back to where it was.

The speed of the train was getting slower and slower, and after a burst of brakes, it slowly stopped.

No one else in the carriage moved, so I didn't dare to move.

The platform gradually became lively, because many people got off from other carriages one after another.When the people were almost gone, the lord's personal guards appeared out of nowhere, ran to the door and stood in two rows, looking ready to fight.

The lord stood up and walked out of the carriage without haste, with Talis on his side, and I followed behind Talis.

When I got out of the station, I looked at the scene in front of me and couldn't help sighing secretly: Even though the technology is not advanced, Wangcheng is more prosperous than I imagined!Amidst the bright lights, there are many buildings and heavy traffic, just like a city that never sleeps.There is no way to compare it to Terai City.

I couldn't help but glanced at the lord, and said to myself: Boy, you still have to work hard!You can't just think about women, career is the most important thing for a man, understand?

As if he felt my meditation, he suddenly looked back at me, I was startled, and immediately looked away pretending to look elsewhere.

A luxurious carriage was parked at the exit, surrounded by several guards, their clothes were exactly the same as those worn by the guards of the lord's mansion.

Needless to say, this is to pick up the lord.

Talis and I followed the lord into the carriage, and we didn't talk all the way until we got off the carriage.

We came in front of a small two-story western-style building, and a servant rushed to open the iron-barred gate, and respectfully said to the lord, "My lord, please come in!"

The lord led us in.After arriving at the lobby on the first floor, he turned back to Talis and said, "I'm going to rest first, and you can arrange the rest."

"Yes." Taliss replied respectfully, and after watching the lord go up to the second floor, she turned to me and said, "You live in the leftmost room on the first floor, just stay here and don't go anywhere."

After finishing speaking, she turned and walked out of the living room door.

...Hey, I haven't had dinner yet!

I silently withdrew my raised hand, and said to myself: I have to endure it all night, as long as I go to bed early, I shouldn't be too hungry... I guess.

***

Early the next morning, my work officially started, and the work content was the same as that of a dedicated maid.

After the lord got up, he hurriedly tidied up his bedroom, and then went downstairs for dinner.After eating, I went back to the second floor and began to clean up the rooms one by one.

When he packed up the lord's study, he was working inside.

When I was about to close the door gently, I heard him say without raising his head: "It's okay, you pack yours."

I had no choice but to go in and start tidying up everything in the house for him.

There was a knock on the door, and Talis's voice came in: "My lord, we're here."

"Come in." The lord put down his pen and looked up at the door.

The door was pushed open, and Talis led a person in.The man was wearing a black cloak, and the hood covered his head so tightly that his face could not be seen clearly.Judging from his stature, he should be a man.

Seeing that the lord had something important to discuss, I immediately got up and walked out.

"Donnie," the lord called me suddenly, "the table hasn't been wiped yet."

I:"……"

Fuck, doesn't he mean that he is not afraid of me eavesdropping?But looking at the sneaky and mysterious appearance of that man, if I didn't have something important to tell, I can only think that it was because of his disfigurement that he was dressed like this.

"My lord..." Talis glanced at me and reminded me.

The lord waved his hand, and said to the mysterious man, "Speak."

I was wiping the desk in front of the lord, trying to close my ears, but I couldn't do it.

The man moved his head slightly, seemed to glance at me, and then said in a low voice: "My lord, the king is willing to marry Princess Fiona to you, but the queen is not." He hesitated for a moment, then continued, "The queen said you Too careless, I'm afraid it will make Princess Fiona sad..."

I go, what is this I hear?Political marriage?Well, I totally agree with the Queen.

"Is there anything else?" The lord didn't seem to care much about the marriage.

"Several lords jointly wrote a letter, hoping that your lord will stop monopolizing the business relationship between your country and the East..."

"Give me the list." The lord said concisely.

"Yes." The man said, pulling out a folded note from his sleeve.

The lord took a look at it, then threw the sticky note into a ball into the teacup.
