Cheat Awakening

Chapter 348. Sylphy's Dark History

"Am I so scary that she passed out just by seeing my face?" Ayri, confused, doubting her own life, asked depressedly gazing at the unconscious maid before her.

"Of course not, my little fairy," Myne said with a smile, planting a kiss on Ayri's cheek to brighten her mood. "You're the most beautiful young lady I've ever seen, and always will be. It's just that she was already quite frightened, and when you held that magic lamp under your chin and positioned your face near her ear, fueled by her own imagination, she was so scared she fainted outright."

"But I have to say, although most maids in your palace are indeed attractive and well-figured, their quality is not very high. Even in such a bright area, she is frightened to unconsciousness. If someone threw her into a dark place, I wonder if she'd pee in her panties..."

"Ouch! Sorry, sorry, I was just carried away," Myne, who momentarily forgot that he was with a little girl, and talking nonsense immediately received a very hard pinch on his waist, making him cry out in pain.

"You didn't hear anything, got it?" Myne, while rubbing his waist, said seriously to Ayri, who hurriedly nodded honestly, trying to suppress her laughter.

"Huh? Why is the door locked? Is Mother-in-law out?" Myne, in order to change the topic quickly, came to Faran and Garnet's bedroom, and pushed it slightly, but the door didn't move an inch.

Sylphy, hearing Myne's silly question, could only roll her eyes and explain patiently. "Whose bedroom do you think this is? As the King and Queen's chambers, how can anyone enter without permission? Your plan was doomed from the start. Only Mother and Father can open this door, and others couldn't even enter without permission.

There are a lot of magical traps and defensive mechanisms set everywhere in the room, and even in front of the door. If someone dared to use force to enter the room, he might not even know how he died."

"Damn! So serious? Does Mother-in-law always worry about getting attacked in her sleep?" Myne exclaimed, ignoring his cheap and now labelled as useless father-in-law, asked with shock, although he always knew that being king and queen is a very dangerous job, with a lot of enemies, but seems like he still underestimated the gravity of those titles.

"Well, to speak clearly, it is Father who has to worry about getting assassinated in his sleep. Not everyone loves a good king. People whose illegal activities are shut down or whose criminal relatives are imprisoned by Father always want to kill him. That's why he always has so much security around him, even though he's powerful himself.

'Underestimating your own enemy will only make him die faster,' those are his exact words, and I agree wholeheartedly," Sylphy said while giving Myne a serious look. If only this bastard also behaved like her father, maybe she wouldn't have to worry about him, every time he wounder outside alone.

"Knock-knock..."

Sylphy, shaking her head at Myne's recklessness, knocked on the door and spoke loudly, "Mother, it's me, Sylphy. May I come in?"

"Huh? Sylphy?! Darling, why are you here? Did something happen?" Garnet's sweet voice, laced with concern, came from the other side of the door. However, there was no sign of it opening, prompting a slight frown from the trio.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Sylphy, after a long look at Myne's pleading face, finally conceded. "Is this really that important?" She asked, a pained expression etched on her features.

"Yes, it is very important. Please, just this time. I promise I will make up for this later," Myne replied excitedly, giving Sylphy a knowing wink.

"Sigh, I am going to regret it... Now, what are you waiting for? Close your ears... Forget it, you are not reliable. Let me do it," Sylphy said hastily plugging Myne's ears with her fingers.

"Sylphy, dear, then are you going to say that, or wait for the guards? Please reply quickly; I have to take a bath," Garnet asked with impatience in her voice while cursing the guy who made the peeking mirror for not installing sound transmitters as well.

Now, not only could she not see Sylphy and the others, but because they were talking in very low voices, she couldn't even hear their conversation. It would've been the perfect spying tool otherwise.

"Fine, fine, I am saying..."

"Little Sparky..."

"Fuhahahaha!!!"

Suddenly, booming laughter erupted in the hallway. Ayri, who had been holding back her laughter for too long, finally couldn't hold it anymore and started laughing crazily.

Myne, with a mental thumbs-up to his clever mother-in-law, joined in, recognizing her naming talent. Sylphy, who always seemed like a child with unlimited energy, this nickname indeed suited her perfectly.

Garnet, laughing to death inside the room, finally turned the mirror to display a family portrait, and opened the door, wiping tears from her eyes.

Myne, who wanted to give his beautiful mother-in-law a surprise, quickly forced himself to calm down and made Sylphy, who had a dark face, clenching her fist tightly. And Ayri, who was holding their stomachs and wiping their tears non-stop but still laughing crazily, appeared in front of Garnet.

"Shut up! If you two don't want to get beaten, then stop laughing," Sylphy yelled out, her face redder than a tomato. This damn nickname was certainly one of her dark history which she just wanted to bury in the ground, but there are too many people who know about it. While she forced everyone to never mention it, she knew they used it to tease her during special occasions like birthdays.

Garnet, who misunderstood Sylphy's threat, quickly covered her mouth in a playful manner while shaking her head. She didn't know that Sylphy was actually not speaking to her but to Ayri and Myne.
