Chapter 1202: Even in the Abyss
Ace was already 15 years old this year. Westerners seemed to be more mature, but this did not apply to Ace. Because of her exquisite facial features, she had always looked like a little angel. However, when this little angel became serious, she actually gave off the steadiness of an adult. That pair of sparkling eyes reminded Si Huang of the photo shoot of " Angels and Demons " that he had worked with Ace on, that strong and pure little battle angel.
Ace said," I’m Mephistopheles. My family raised me and nurtured me. I should contribute to her. If Stoke is allowed to continue, sooner or later, I will be paid tribute to them and become their exclusive property. I’ve always been proud of being Mephield. If one day I have to sacrifice myself to protect her, I won’t be sad. But it has to be meaningful. In my opinion, uncle’s decision to marry me to Ivana is a meaningless choice. I don’t think he will succeed, so I’m dissatisfied."
Si Huang calmly looked at this young but meticulous girl.
If he was really Emily Jasper and had never seen what Aisbe looked like before, he would probably feel that this little girl was indeed a young lady nurtured by nobles. Her scheming and thoughts were too mature, and her personality was calm, arrogant, and cold.
However, she had seen how childish Ace was. Ace would like to eat ice cream, blush like a normal child, and silently hold back his tears when he was sad and angry.
Ace didn’t know what the strange and mysterious woman was thinking, but he found it hard to control himself when she looked at him. He subconsciously wanted to say something else that was buried deep in his heart." Personally, I don’t think I can win Ivan Jasper’s trust either. I’ve already tried once. I can’t see how Ivan can control him. I’m afraid I’ll ruin things. I..." I don’t like him."
When he said that he liked her, Ace lowered his head, his voice a little muffled.
From Si Huang’s point of view, he could see the little girl’s smooth and full forehead. Her thick eyelashes were slightly trembling and were a little fragile. However, the lines of her face were inherently cold and arrogant.
If it were some men with special hobbies, they would have long been unable to resist the temptation of such a little girl and would have wanted to ravage her to pieces.
Ace, what’s your wish?"
Ace suddenly looked up. His eyes were a little red and there was still a trace of confusion in his eyes. He was looking at Si Huang in surprise.
Phoenix Si smiled. It was the same smile. The smile she gave Mason before was bloody and cruel, but now Ace saw it as fresh and bright as forget-me-not." Cute little girl, tell me, what is your real wish?"
These words were a little teasing, but it didn’t disgust Ace. Instead, it was as if he was being doted on and teased. This feeling was too rare for Ace. Even for her parents, they had never had such a feeling ever since they spoke to her like this when she was very, very young.
Ace pursed his lips and wore a cold and arrogant expression. He looked at Si Huang in shock." Why should I tell you?"
"Because you look too lovable now, so I want to try and see if I can help you complete it." Si Huang stood up and walked to Ace’s side in two steps.
She was a head taller than Ace. Besides, Ace was still sitting. She bent down and whispered to him," I used Mephistopheles to deal with Stoke, but I’m not sorry. You said that if I didn’t do it, Mephistopheles would be eaten by Stoke sooner or later, and you would become their exclusive property. So, I might have helped Mephistopheles." But, Little Ace, I feel sorry for you."
"Because of this apology and my love for you, I want to help you fulfill your wish and make you happier."
"This is our first time meeting."
"Yes, but that’s not a problem. What I want to do is the reason." Si Huang said," But it looks like you haven’t thought it through. Then you can bring it up to me when you’ve thought it through."
Ace reached out and grabbed Si Huang’s hand." My wish is to become a stronger Battle Angel."
