Welcome to the world of strength supremacy

Igarashi's question made Beatrice, who had finally calmed down, move. Then she took a deep look at him, then took out a special book and waved it in front of Igarashi, looking at the book. There was no response from the book, and Beatrice sighed.

I followed my mother's orders to guard the Forbidden Library until someone arrived and passed on the knowledge in the Forbidden Library to him, but unfortunately, that person was not you, and the prophecy book had no response to you.

pity?

Igarashi's teasing tone made Beatrice seem to have finally broken free of some kind of shackles, and she became emotional and pointed at him with an expression of disappointment and self-deprecation.

That's right! I hope it's you! You are the only guy in the past four hundred years who can enter and leave the Forbidden Library at will. You are also the guy besides your brother who takes the initiative to contact you even if Betty talks coldly to you.

So the prophecy book has responded now, right?

As Igarashi finished speaking, the prophecy book in Beatrice's hand suddenly burst into light. Looking at this unexpected change, Beatrice's eyes widened.

how come?!

I usually behave like an ordinary person, otherwise it would have some impact on the people around me. Maybe this book has been hidden from you.

Igarashi innocently spread his hands and glanced at the prophecy book. He was still thinking that if the prophecy book didn't respond even if he let go of his self-repression, he might have to use laws to force the prophecy book to be more honest.

He didn't intend for Beatrice to have any special relationship with anyone else.

Now that the prophecy book is so popular, Igarashi is not sure whether Echidna is secretly relying on a copy of this book of wisdom to observe the outside world, and then manipulate it to give the appropriate reaction.

Sign a contract with Betty. The content of the contract is to create beautiful memories together that can never be forgotten.

After saying this, Beatrice stood up from the middle of the ladder, stood on tiptoes, kissed Igarashi's forehead, and then pushed Igarashi away.

This is the overlord's contract. You signed the contract before I agreed.

Yeah, are there any dissatisfaction? Anyway, Betty is your contract elf now, and you can't sign contracts with other elves from now on.

Chapter 749 Why didn’t you show up earlier?

Feeling that the signing of the contract was completed, Beatrice fell down on the ladder as if paralyzed. The expression on her face was very complicated, almost like a person who was destined to die after falling into the abyss, but found that the abyss was not as high as imagined, and underground It's like thick cotton.

When Beatrice's contract was signed, Igarashi's law had turned all its terms into content that was beneficial to Igarashi. Seeing that the contract was essentially similar to a slave contract, as long as he wanted to, he could Igarashi said helplessly with the expression on Beatrice's face as if she had been given a new lease of life.

Is it so exaggerated?

As the guardian of knowledge, Betty has been managing the Forbidden Library for four hundred years. During these four hundred years, Betty just obeyed the contract and quietly waited for the passage of time.

Four hundred years ago, it was an era when witches were all-powerful, and it was also a taboo era where long-lived people had some kind of relationship with them. There was no relevant record in historical books, and Igarashi knew about it. Very little.

I made a contract with the witch and stayed in the Mezas family who shared the same position. I followed the records in the gospel for the first time, and then I wasted my time waiting for the moment when the things recorded in the gospel became reality.

Beatrice fell into memories. What she said should have been very sad, but now she was able to narrate it in a relatively energetic tone.

However, during this period of simple waiting, time in the outside world is still passing by. In the same position as Betty, the head of the Mezas family gradually aged and died, and then was inherited by the next generation, witnessing the replacement of family heads. However, Betty The world remains unchanged, time just passes by.”

Hundreds of years are by no means too long a time for the many immortal species Igarashi has seen, but it should be noted that Beatrice's range of activities is limited to mansions, and most of the time, she is only in forbidden areas. Just in the library.

However, Beatrice doesn't seem to know that Roswaal has been living by occupying the bodies of his descendants until now. Well, it's okay not to know. Igarashi has asked her to travel around the world and never come back.

The Mezas family is a poorly-connected family, and less than a handful of people have entered the Forbidden Library in the past four hundred years. On the contrary, Betty herself can't remember how many times she has thought of giving up everything. Betty also lost count of how many times she prayed that she could forget everything. Hundreds of times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, it was totally not enough...

Over four hundred years, what brought Beatrice was not maturity and stability, nor the ability to see through the world accumulated by time. Beatrice could not even browse the world properly, so she relied on books to understand it. Four hundred years, Beatrice would Si's little expectation for the future was completely gone, leaving behind a broken heart.

So, now that the contract has been signed, and the content of your previous contract that needs to be fulfilled, the so-called imparting knowledge, I have already browsed the books in the forbidden library during this period, so naturally it can be regarded as completed. What are your plans in the future?

Igarashi gently touched Beatrice's head and saw her eyes gradually becoming moist, and crystal tears streaked across her cheeks, dripping from her chin to the ground. He stretched out his hand to wipe it away, but more and more tears came to his eyes.

Why didn't you come to Betty earlier?! Why did you let Betty be alone?! Four hundred years, four hundred years! Why on earth did you let Betty be alone?!

Beatrice shed more and more tears. Apart from showing happiness when facing Parker and showing disgust when facing Igarashi, Beatrice, who lacked emotion at other times, finally showed another emotion at this moment. , a sadness that is much heavier than happiness and disgust.

To Igarashi, Beatrice's words were more like a child's unreasonable tantrum.

Before that, Igarashi had not even entered this world, and after he entered this world, he immediately approached Nayako and asked her to modify the world line.

And Beatrice, was she ignored?

It can only be ignored.

Could it be that Nayako was asked to create a person to sign a contract with Beatrice, or that Beatrice was not created by the lust witch at all?

After a long time, the crying gradually stopped, and the sadness in Beatrice's hazy tearful eyes dissipated, and she looked at Igarashi with a questioning look.

You guy, you also have a gentle side? You can't be pretending to be something, right? No, although the reason for restraining your own existence is very convincing, but if someone else pretends to be you, then the first It is also possible that he appeared in front of Betty for the first time and was recognized by the Book of Prophecy.

Igarashi was about to applaud Beatrice's whimsical idea, and he glared at Beatrice sideways.

Just because I show tenderness, I think I'm fake. I'm convinced. Although I usually behave a little bit in a bad mood, but when faced with a guy like you who likes to lose his temper, I'm not angry but just in a bad mood. I Your belly must be super big, right?”

You can say whatever you want. Betty wants to be alone for a while now. You go out!

Igarashi looked at Beatrice's face that turned away, nodded, left her time to accept the changed situation, and left the Forbidden Library.

In the corridor, I met a panicked Petra.

What's wrong? Did she make a mistake, or did Priscilla have a conflict with someone else?

The girl heard the sound and went out, and when she saw Igarashi walking out of the room, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Sir Igarashi, I finally found you. It's dinner time. Everyone is here except you and Beatrice.

It's already this time before you know it. Let's go. I'll give Beatrice's dinner to her later.

How can I let you do such a thing, or let me...

Can you find the Forbidden Library?

Well.

Petra, who subconsciously wanted to take over the food delivery job, froze when she heard Igarashi's rhetorical question, and her white face quickly turned red due to embarrassment.

Let's go. Speaking of which, did Petra contribute to this dinner? Although this is your first time taking on the job of a maid, you seem to be very good at housework.

Well, I did a little cooking.

I'm suddenly looking forward to it.

Igarashi's casual teasing made Petra's mood rise again after she finally calmed down.

Chapter 750 Preparing to go to the sanctuary

At night, Igarashi did not let Priscilla go, nor did he intend to let Emilia go, and gave her various hints, but Emilia was pretending to be stupid. She had made progress after experiencing the trial of dreams. There are many, many, but they pretend to be confused about Igarashi's hint, which is definitely pretending to be stupid.

Emilia pretended to be stupid. Igarashi had no intention of letting her go, but when he found out that she was sleeping with the twin maids, he thought carefully about the possibility of four people sleeping together at once, and simply gave up. , I can only postpone it for a day or two. I have obviously said all kinds of intimate words, why are you so shy?
