I am the Executioner Dragon, but a cute mod.
Chapter 95: Four years old is the perfect age for marriage
Upon hearing Amelia's words, Luso didn't react for a moment. Thinking he had misheard, he asked again:
"Are you kidding me? This isn't the time for jokes, let's go."
But Amelia wasn't joking with Luso. She broke free from Luso's grasp and repeated:
"I don't want to, I don't want to kill anyone."
"Why?" Lu Suo asked, puzzled.
Amelia stared at Luso with a strange expression:
"The boss said that only a madman would kill someone for no reason. I'm not a madman, so why would I kill someone I don't know?"
“…………”
Faced with Amelia's logic, Lu Su fell silent. He thought of the money he had spent on Amelia, and felt his heart bleed. He clenched his fists, and to successfully obtain that body, he left behind a sentence:
"Fine, if you won't go, I will. You stay here and wait for me, don't go anywhere."
Amelia nodded, and Lu Su followed the girl from the Gamō clan without looking back, leaving Amelia to eat dates on the spot.
The sun set and rose again, and another day passed without Luso appearing. Amelia was patient, but the enticing aromas of food from the street stalls were tormenting her soul.
Amelia wanted to eat, but she didn't have a single coin on her, so she could only stand by the food stall, trying to satisfy her craving by looking at it.
But this stop led Amelia to discover a new world. It all started when the food stall owner saw Amelia looking pitiful and casually gave her a wheat rope (rice flour ropes that are fried).
Amelia's enjoyment of the food immediately attracted a large crowd to buy it, making the owner a fortune.
To thank Amelia for bringing him traffic, the boss said directly to Amelia:
"From now on, whenever you come here, the wheat rope is free!"
Upon hearing this, Amelia's eyes lit up:
Is it really free?
The boss nodded, but remained slightly wary:
"Of course! But it's only for you; you can't share it with anyone else."
"Yay!" Amelia cheered, and from then on, she had an endless supply of wheat rope.
The other vendors, seeing how well the wheat rope business was doing, even stealing their business, were furious. They grabbed their own signs and started feeding Amelia.
And so, Amelia no longer had to worry about going hungry. What a joyous occasion!
Three more days passed, and Amelia waited for Lu Suo to return on the snack street as promised. But there was no news for so long that Amelia couldn't help but suspect that he had been killed by that little girl.
[If I really get killed, how am I supposed to explain it to the boss?]
Thinking of this, Amelia couldn't help but feel anxious. She didn't want to disappoint Lilith; to her, disappointing Lilith would be an immense disgrace.
Should we go find Luso? This thought had barely formed when Amelia abruptly interrupted it. If He left, how would Luso find Him when He returned?
Finding her wasn't an option, nor was not finding her. Just as Amelia was caught in a dilemma, a gentle voice suddenly sounded behind her:
"I'm back, Amyria."
Upon hearing this, Amelia instinctively turned around and saw a girl with delicate features, dressed in a maid's outfit, and with long, straight black hair, about fourteen or fifteen years old, smiling at her from a distance, as if she had seen an old acquaintance.
Amelia became wary, her expression turning hostile.
"Who are you? How do you know my name?!"
"My name is Gamo Chihaya, but I also have another name," the girl said, pointing to the bandage on her forehead.
Upon seeing this, Amelia immediately realized that the girl before her was Lu Su who had successfully swapped bodies. Her eyes widened, and she walked forward in disbelief, circling Lu Su and clicking her tongue in amazement.
"Lu Suo? Really? That's amazing. When I first met you, I had no idea you were Lu Suo. Are your spells that powerful?"
"Yes, the sutures on her forehead are the only flaw. After the body swap, I gained all of this girl's memories, as well as her proficiency with the procedure."
Lu Su calmly recounted her extraordinary technique: after obtaining all of Gamo Chihaya's memories, she could perfectly inherit Gamo Chihaya's personality and life experiences, while she herself remained Lu Su in essence. This was the charm of the brain-transfer technique.
Now that she has obtained the technique [Shakuhachi Danyou], Rōsō truly possesses the power to defeat Jabun. Just as she was thinking about how to humiliate Jabun when she returned, she suddenly noticed a strange gaze.
It was Amelia. She stared at Rōsō with a puzzled expression, the scene of Rōsō killing Gamō Chihaya flashing through her mind. She asked:
"So you killed her to get this body?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Suo immediately perked up. These words seemed calm, but in reality, they were fraught with danger. Don't be fooled by Amelia's seemingly indifferent demeanor; she would never allow a murderer to stay by Lilith's side.
Although Lu Suo did have the idea of killing someone to get this body, it was just an idea. The fact that she was able to live so long was due to luck, in addition to her strength and wisdom.
So Lu Suo recounted in detail the entire process of how he obtained this body:
"I didn't kill this body; it was suicide. Don't be fooled by her status as a member of the Gamo clan, which is high for commoners. As a woman, she had no real power and could only be used as a tool for marriage alliances."
She ran away from home because she didn't want to marry a man she had never met. After spending all her money, she committed suicide by poisoning herself.
Upon hearing these words, Amelia carefully observed Luso's expression, but no matter how she looked at it, she could not find any trace of lying.
Lu Suo was not lying.
But Luso's words puzzled Amelia, and she asked:
"This guy doesn't seem to be of marriageable age yet, does he? If he's engaged, there's still room for negotiation. There's no need for him to commit suicide."
Lu Suo replied:
"What are you talking about? Fourteen is the age to get married. According to my memory, if she hadn't run away, the wedding banquet would have been held around yesterday..."
"Fourteen years old...?"
Amelia stared at Lu Suo, as if she had found a logical flaw, and then said:
"You still say you're not lying to me? You're only fourteen, not even an adult yet! How could you possibly be married? Just admit it already!"
But Lu Su just stared at Amelia with a strange look in his eyes, arms crossed, speaking righteously:
"Is there a problem with having a coming-of-age ceremony at twelve and getting married at fourteen? Stop teasing me. The eldest will wake up in two days. Let's go catch some more monsters before then."
Without waiting for Amelia's reply, Luso took her to find the monster.
Amelia was completely bewildered. Lu Suo's words, "Coming of age at twelve, marriage at fourteen," kept echoing in her mind. She didn't understand why this world was so different from the previous one. In the previous world, one had to be eighteen to become an adult.
Amelia thought for a long time and finally came to an answer:
People in this world are probably more precocious.
