Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 25.1

Do you Like It (1)

He guessed that it was because they were too expensive and the method was too direct.

Parrish put the coins on the flower as a decoration, and she readily accepted it. Now that he put the coins on the skirt as a decoration, she should accept it in the same way.

But seeing Anna's expression, he felt something went wrong again. The outcome was different from what he had expected.

"Master Ulysses, if I don't want it, are you going to burn them again?" Anna's voice trembled.

Rothgarr naturally said, "What is the purpose of keeping useless things?"

Anna trembled again. The term "useless things" seemed to refer to the clothes, but also seemed to be referring to her. She had a feeling that when the demon ran out of patience and couldn’t get her soul, she, too, would become a useless thing, and would probably be set on fire, too.

When she looked at those clothes again, Anna was like the fox grieving over the death of the rabbit; she felt like she was mourning her own kind.

Perhaps it was the use of poison to fight poison; when sadness came, the heartache left.

Anna lowered her head and said, "I can't accept these, please dispose of them as you please."

Rothgarr was silent for a long time. She wouldn’t even accept this? Because it wasn't from Parrish?

He could no longer possess Parrish. If she was really interested in Parrish, then he would have to kill him.

Just like at noon, Anna not accepting the gift was a hindrance in Rothgarr's eyes. He raised his hand and waved it lightly, and the skirts burned blazingly.

Even if Anna didn't look over, the flame still faintly jumped in her pupils. Thinking about the three gold coins she had saved, she felt a trace of comfort.

Whatever, the demon was not burning her things; she would just pretend not to see it.

Against the backdrop of the raging flames, Rothgarr slowly finished his dinner.

When Anna packed up the dishes and left, he suddenly asked, "You only like flowers?"

After all, Anna had only accepted flowers so far.

Rothgarr didn't know that Anna was mainly collecting money, and the flowers were just bonuses; in his eyes, the coins were just "decorations" for the flowers.

"I like flowers."

Anna seemed like she was answering Rothgarr's question, but she was actually correcting him. She liked flowers, but preferred gold coins.

If the demon believed she liked flowers and only sent her flowers, she could relatively accept the scene of the flowers being burned—as long as there were no gold coins on them.

Rothgarr nodded and motioned for Anna to leave.

Anna took the food box and left. She suddenly realized that if she didn’t look at the evil hidden under the handsome appearance and didn’t think about the demon’s real motive, his appearance was just like a normal man clumsy trying to woo her.

But what he was doing now was like gifting a full set of lipsticks to someone who never wore makeup, completely heading in the wrong direction.

Of course, what he didn't know was that he was the problem; she wouldn't pay him any attention even if he used the right methods.

Anna went home after a day of heartache. Looking at the street scene on the way home, she recovered her spirits.

It was July at this time, but because of the geographical location and climate of Engeli, the temperature changed little throughout the year, and it mattered little what month it was.

Anna felt better thinking that in a few days, she would have worked in the earl estate for a full month and could receive her wages. Her salary of ten silver coins could be openly known to her family. At that time, she could give them some gifts, and then the entire family could eat something delicious to celebrate.

Anna went to the tavern as usual and bought food for Dubian.

Although the environment of the ruins where Dubian temporarily lived was not good, it was very safe, and no one would typically pass by. Anna waited for Dubian to eat something before she started to review and study with him.

Dubian couldn’t help but sigh as he taught Anna nearly a hundred words, and then he told Anna a little bit about two interesting facts about when he learnt spells and asked Anna to continue to practice meditation.

She hadn’t felt the natural elements yet, and there were many things that needed to be learned through practice, so it was useless to tell her now.

Anna sat in a meditative position, closed her eyes and felt her surroundings.

She had been meditating for two days. Although she still couldn’t feel anything, she wasn't in a hurry. It took two months for others to feel something. Even if she was talented, how could it be possible in two days?

Anna comforted herself, and suddenly realized that there was some blue-violet light entangled on her right side. She wanted to look over when there was more white light on the left side, and then it seemed like there was a bang. The originally gray and black world that she saw when she closed her eyes was suddenly filled with light of all colors.

Anna opened her eyes suddenly, her expression uncertain.

Dubian was looking at Anna's face, a little distracted. When he saw her suddenly open his eyes, his eyes flickered and his ears turned red unconsciously. Fortunately, the sky was dark, which prevented him from becoming even more embarrassed.

Then he noticed that Anna's expression was off, and he couldn't help asking worriedly: "Anna, what's the matter?"

Anna looked at Dubian. She opened her mouth to speak but thought that this matter was too amazing. She waved her hand and said, "Wait a minute."

After she said that, Anna closed her eyes again, slowed her breathing, gradually removed the distracting thoughts from her mind, and reentered the state of meditation.

Gradually, the gorgeous colors reappeared in the vision that Anna shouldn't have. She watched these colors mischievously scurrying in her vision. The excitement could no longer be suppressed, and she opened her eyes to face the tense Dubian who was staring at her and said, "I can see the natural elements!"

Being able to feel the natural elements meant that she had an elemental affinity!

Anna could finally let go of the breath that she had been holding; she had the confidence to change her destiny!

Hearing Anna's words, Dubian was surprised, but then he said sincerely and happily: "Anna, congratulations, your natural talent is really strong. If you meditate for a few days to consolidate it, you can try to learn some simple tricks."

Anna was also extremely happy at the moment. If it weren't for the fear of Dubian's misunderstanding, she really wanted to give Dubian a big hug to thank him.

"Thank you, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the chance to accomplish this." Anna's eyes were very bright, and her eyebrows were dancing in excitement. "Is there anything you want to eat? I will bring it to you tomorrow! "
