" What are you doing?!"
Catherine subconsciously took a few steps back when she saw Rashu walking towards her with a cold expression.
At this moment, Rashu's entire body was still wrapped in the heavy killing intent left behind from the battle with Hawkeye. The glaring blood at the corner of his mouth had not dried up, and his entire right arm was covered in dried blood. It looked very terrifying.
However, she was surrounded by a barren island, not to mention that dozens of navy soldiers had already surrounded her. How could she, a powerless noble girl, retreat?
Coupled with the fact that she had witnessed Rashu's cruel methods of slaughtering hundreds of pirates, Catherine's heart turned even colder.
Rashu, this guy, was not a navy man.
The ground was covered in broken corpses after the wind and snow had stopped. There was not a single complete corpse.
A layer of warm red blood seeped out of the melting snow, spreading out like blood-colored lotuses.
Rashu's footsteps stepped on the bloody road, leaving behind a row of shocking footprints.
As the footsteps approached, the handsome face that was stained with blood gradually approached…
An indescribable fear gradually entered Catherine's body, as if it was more bone-piercing than the cold air that melted the snow in the world.
She suddenly gritted her teeth and tried her best to stop her trembling body, as if she did not want to be looked down upon by the damn navy who always went against her.
It was also as if she was maintaining her last bit of dignity as the daughter of the Lorte Province Governor.
Rashu came before Catherine and squinted his eyes at her.
Then, he raised his arm.
The hand covered in dried blood gently lifted Catherine's fair chin.
"Ah!"
Catherine, who was frightened by Rashu's sudden action, screamed in panic. Her delicate body trembled as she tried to dodge.
However, Rashu's other hand was already tightly hugging her waist.
Instantly.
Catherine's mind went blank.
Looking at Rashu's handsome face that was gradually approaching, the ferocious aura that was emitted from his pores, and the faint smell of blood coming from his hand, this noble girl who never touched the water of spring was stunned.
For some reason, the words that Rashu had said to her when he walked towards the rain of cannons suddenly appeared in her mind.
"I'm not a person who likes to retreat.”
"-whether in bed or on the battlefield.”
The teasing in his voice and the man's breath that was so close to him…
A blush gradually appeared on her face, and her delicate eyelashes trembled slightly.
Catherine subconsciously closed her eyes.
At this moment, Rashu's cold and indifferent voice rang out by his ear.
"The Blood Sickle Pirates 'original target was the Lorte Province's Governor's Office. They had their eyes on the payment for the grain trade between your father and the Kingdom of Alabastan.”
"This time, I personally took action and set up such a large encirclement. There is no doubt that your father owes me a favor.”
"Don't think that I don't know about your father's underhanded tricks all these years. Those complaint letters that should have been sent to the political department are now on the table in my G-9 base commander's office.”
"Of course, I won't hold a grudge against your father.”
"I'm not lying to you. I'm going back to the headquarters to report on my work.”
"Of course, I hope you can pass on a message to your father.”
"If he still wants to continue being the governor of his province and continue to make money from this position, then remember this.”
"Lorte Province, just like you, belongs to me, Rashu.”
Catherine opened her eyes in a daze, her face pale.
But Rashu had already released his hand and said with a cold smile,"
"Do you understand?"
Catherine nodded subconsciously.
"Very good."
Rashu suddenly smiled.
Catherine stood there in a daze.
It was not because of anything else, but because Rashu's smile was completely different from before. It actually looked so gentle.
It was hard to imagine that a person whose back was covered with corpses and whose hands were stained with blood could actually smile so warmly.
Catherine thought she was seeing things.
She blinked subconsciously.
However, Rashu teased,"
"You closed your eyes just now, but when you opened them, there was a trace of disappointment in your eyes.”
"You seem to be expecting something?"
Flirtatious and licentious.
Just like before.
Anger surged in Catherine's heart. She was both embarrassed and angry. Her eyes were slightly red as she cursed,
" I'm not disappointed!"
Rashu laughed out loud. He reached out and pulled off the new white cloak that was as white as snow from his back. After shaking off the snow on it, he gently draped it over Catherine's shoulders.
"Come, this delicate person. If she freezes, my heart will ache.”
After saying that, Rashu waved his hand and left with his subordinates.
Catherine was left standing alone in the open space with a blank look in her eyes. It was not until the guards of the Governor's Mansion arrived ten minutes later that she slowly came to her senses.
That annoying fellow left just like that.
