Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times - Chapter 19.5

Real Follow-up (5)

She hurriedly smiled and said, “It’s okay, I am not scared, Honorable Lord Mage.”

The man was taken aback. He looked at Anna very unexpectedly, and smiled helplessly: “I am not a noble mage. According to the Vatican, I am a fallen mage.”

It was the first time Anna heard the term ‘fallen mage,’ and she asked curiously: “What is a fallen mage?”

The man was already ready for Anna to run away screaming, but he was taken aback when he heard that.

She looked young; perhaps the adults in the family hadn’t told her.

The black stripes on his body suddenly surged violently. He hurriedly sat down, and it took a while for him to gather his senses. When he opened his eyes, he saw the girl still standing in front of him. She did not leave.

He said: “The priests of the Vatican are holy light mages, and the opposite of light is darkness. Those who use dark spells are fallen mages.”

Anna had a strong interest in the world of spells and mages. She saw that the fallen mage was willing to share, so she promptly sat cross-legged on the ground, not even caring about how dirty the ground was. She said, “Can you tell me more?”

The man couldn’t help laughing when he saw Anna propping her chin up as if listening to a story. Did she really not think his appearance at the moment was scary?

It was just that he was really too weak now, and he only said: “I can tell you in the future. But I haven’t eaten anything for three days. Can you find me something to eat? I won’t let you help in vain.”

He said that as he took out a bag from his arms and opened it. He took out a gold coin and handed it over.

Anna thought for a while and decided not to refuse. She took the gold coins and suppressed her excitement and said, “It’s too late now. The bakery is closed. I only have rye bread and some light beer in my house. Is that okay with you?”

The man said gratefully: “It’s enough to fill my stomach.”

Anna got up and patted the dust off her body. After Bobby’s death, there was no one to clean up here. It remained as it was after the fire; simply put, it was too dirty.

Just before leaving, she couldn’t help asking: “Are you not afraid of me reporting…I mean, are you not afraid that I will inform the priest of the church?”

The man revealed his white teeth; his smile was a bit hearty: “I have been observing you for two days, and I don’t think you will.”

And her reaction when she saw his appearance also proved that his judgment was not wrong.

Of course, he often made mistakes in his judgments, and his teacher always told him to be less dim-witted, but he still believed that there were always more good people in this world.

Anna seemed to be infected by the man’s smile, and couldn’t help but smile as well: “My name is Anna, what should I call you?”

The man said, “My name is Dubian Flag, and you can call me Dubian, Anna.”

Anna nodded. She did not say much else. She turned around and walked out of the ruins, heading back toward her home.

She held the gold coin in her palm tightly, so excited that her head became a bit dizzy.

She unexpectedly met a mage who was unpretentious and generous, and she felt that her mage dream was just a few steps away!

Anna accepted the other party’s gold coins with peace of mind because the gold coins not only included food, but also consisted of the unknown risks she had taken.

Because she was not a native of this world, she didn’t have much interest in the rivalry between light and darkness. The mage named Dubian looked like a good person. There may have been some facts He wished to hide about him becoming a fallen mage, but it didn’t matter to her even if there was.

If he was hostile to her, she would have died the moment she was dragged into the ruins. It didn’t matter even if he was pretending to be a good person to trick her into giving him food because she could get gold coins and more supernatural knowledge from him, so this was a win-win situation.

At least until he was recovered, she probably would not be harmed.

What’s more, this dark mage might have a way to deal with the demon. Didn’t they say that only magic could defeat magic? She thought that the demon was pretty dark; maybe dark magic could defeat the demon.

Anna greeted her mother Gaea when she got home, and then went to her bedroom to take a look. Adele and Evan were both asleep, Adele’s hand was lightly resting on Evan’s tummy. Their two faces which looked quite similar were leaning towards each other, and the whole thing looked cute enough to melt people’s hearts.

Anna lightly took out two portions of rye bread and light beer, put them in a rattan basket, and walked out cautiously. When she arrived at the ruins, she first looked around. After confirming that there was no one around, she then entered in a flash.

Dubian seemed to have reached his limit. Anna came in and found that he was leaning in the corner. He had passed out in a coma, and the dark lines on his face rippled a bit too intensely, and she didn’t dare to approach him.

It took a while for Dubian to wake up with a hum. Seeing Anna standing on the side, he explained: “I am very weak now, and it is difficult to control the dark elements that are out of control in my body.”

Anna said understandingly: “I get it. You can eat something first. Only when you have strength can you continue to contend with the dark elements in your body.”

Fortunately, Dubian was not weak enough to need to be fed, otherwise Anna would be very embarrassed.

She sat next to Dubian, and watched him eat, observing him silently.
