Chapter 262 Untying the Eyes
The young man carried Sang Luo along a remote and quiet palace path.

The irrelevant disturbances gradually retreated until they disappeared. Flowers of various colors and lush green plants were intertwined and entwined, like a flower forest that someone had carefully tended. The sunlight shone through the gaps between the branches and leaves onto the ground, forming mottled and fragmented shadows, and a rich floral fragrance wafted from the tip of the nose.

The two of them walked through a large rose garden surrounded by wooden fences and came to a white palace. It was not very large, a small temporary residence.

There were no servants in the hall, it was very clean, without a speck of dust in any corner.

The young man was obviously the owner of this palace, and he took out appropriate food to welcome the guests.

Smoked haddock, pickled oysters, grilled mackerel fillet, chicken pie...there is also a pot of freshly heated floral tea and a plate of peeled and cut fruit.

Sang Luo was quite flattered when looking at the table full of delicacies. Her saliva could not stop flowing. God knows that in the past half month in the temple, except for the first day when the food was decent, she hardly had anything good to eat afterwards. She had been eating dried meat every day, and her mouth was almost devoid of the taste of bird.

She took a bite of the sliced ​​fish, which was medium-rare. The outside had the aroma of being smoked with special spices, and the meat was full of juicy juice and very tender and delicious.

Sang Luo ate slowly while glancing at the young man opposite him.

She couldn't see his expression, nor could she guess what he was thinking.

——Are you planning to hand her over, feeling guilty, and bringing her here for a final meal?

The meat in my mouth suddenly became difficult to swallow.

Holding the silver fork in hand, I didn't know whether I should continue eating.

The young man saw through her thoughts and curled his lips slightly, "Don't worry, I won't hand you over."

Sang Luo swallowed the fish in his mouth with difficulty, "Really?"

"If I really wanted to hand you over, I would have handed you over when the guards caught up with me. There's no need to bring myself to get into trouble." The young man cut a piece of steak with a knife and fork. His bony hands made a small movement, which was particularly pleasing to the eye.

This is true.

Sang Luo felt relieved and continued eating.

She became even more suspicious of the young man. How could a mere guard have the guts to hide a criminal, not to mention having a palace all to himself? It seemed that she had guessed wrong from the beginning. This man was not a patrolling guard, but at least a well-known figure in the temple.

She had run into him so many times, and each time at a critical moment, it could be considered fate.

"What's your name?" The two had met many times but still didn't know each other's names.

"Minos."

"Is that your full name?"

"You can also call me Minos Iyar Limitres."

"...I'd better call you Minos." Sang Luo blinked briskly. The name seemed familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before. However, the names of the orcs in the Western Continent were too long, and Sang Luo could never remember them.

"Yeah." The young man nodded, not caring at all, and poured her a cup of hot flower tea. "Try it, my lady. Is it delicious? We also have lemon tea and sweet black tea."

Sang Luo picked up the hot cup of tea and drank it. It had a very sweet floral aroma, not too sweet. She liked it very much and said, "My name is..."

She was considering whether to reveal her real name.

Minos replied, "Sangluo."

"You, how do you know?" Sang Luo widened her watery almond eyes.

She had never told anyone her real name. She felt as if she had come to a place where she was unfamiliar with the world and knew nothing about it, and her vest had been stripped off. "The future bride of the Son of God is known to everyone in the temple."

"..." Sang Luo shook his head quickly, "You're flattering me! I'm just a candidate. The Holy Son doesn't look down on females from other races."

"The will of the Son is known to no one except Himself."

"This is a fact known to everyone. The Son of God is an angel of the Supreme God and will only choose females from the angel race as his mate."

"Generally speaking, pure-blooded angels rarely choose non-angels as their partners. However, now that pure-blooded angels are dying out, most of the angels are mixed-blooded angels."

Sang Luo had nothing to refute, but she didn't take it to heart. She just thought that the young man was comforting her.

Minos saw that she was eating with great relish, as if she had not eaten such delicious food for a long time. He pushed the sliced ​​meat in front of her, thought for a moment, and asked in a gentle voice, "Why do you always want to run away, noble lady? Isn't it better to stay in the temple? Here is the best breeding environment, and we will also give you the most considerate care."

Sang Luo shook his head. "Not good! The Temple brought me here without saying a word. They even imprisoned me. They were afraid that I would escape, so they specially captured two strong males to guard me."

"Not only did they lock me up, they also sent a jealous female to serve me. They even skimped on my meals. The food they brought back later was all rotten. I've been in the temple for so long, and I only had a full meal at my first meal."

"If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it with good grass. If the Holy Son really wanted to have a child with me, he wouldn't have left me without food... It's clear that this male is unreliable. I don't want to stay here."

The young man remained silent for a long time. After she had vented all her complaints, he whispered, "I'm sorry, this is indeed the Temple's negligence."

"What do you have to apologize for?" Sang Luo took another big bite of the jam bread, his cheeks puffed up like a little hamster, and he spoke incoherently, "You are the best person to me since I came to the temple."

"So do you like the Son?"

"I don't like him!" Sang Luo swallowed the bread in one gulp and said firmly, "I haven't even seen him, how can I like him? This group of people have held me here for such a long time, and I haven't even seen the Son of God... Humph, maybe he is so ugly that he dare not let people see him, for fear that the bride will run away early."

She looked at Minos again and said seriously, "It's better for me to give birth to a child for that holy son than for you."

"What do you think of me, lady?" he asked seriously.

Sang Luo has always been curious about why there is a piece of white silk covering his eyes. Is he blind?

But it doesn’t look like it either.

His behavior was no different from that of a normal person, and he was even able to catch her from high altitude...but it was true that some orcs had special talents and abilities, and could observe everything in the world without the help of their eyes.

"I don't even know what you look like." The most important criterion for her to choose a beastly husband is the face.

Sang Luo moved closer with her stool and looked carefully at his face, mouth, nose, ears... Everything she could see was like the most perfect masterpiece of the Creator, without a single flaw. She thought he must be a beauty, but she didn't like disabilities.

Minos felt her warm breath on his neck, tingling and numb. "You can take off your blindfold."

"Really? You're not blind?"

He laughed, "No."

"So...are your eyes or face injured?"

She doesn't like to expose other people's scars.

"No, I just often see a lot of boring things, so I cover my eyes."

Sang Luo blinked her watery eyes in confusion. She just wanted to talk nonsense but didn't really take any action. Unexpectedly, the young man grabbed her hand and took off her blindfold.
