《Love Agreement With The King》Chapter 245 - What Are They?
Advertisement
After two hours of traveling the carriage finally took off in front of the castle, the coachman walked down and went to open Roselyn's door. She stepped outside offering a kind supportive gaze to the coachman.
"Hope you feel better." She stated gazing at him, "maybe we can invite you to have lunch with us tomorrow to thank you for your courage and for staying with us without panicking, not many people would have been that courageous." She traveled her gaze toward John who nodded and intervened.
"Yes, why don't you come tomorrow to the castle, you should bring your family," John added making Roselyn smile proudly.
"T-T-Thank you." The coachman said moved, gazing at both of them, "I would be honored to come there. But I know my wife enough to say she would refuse to accept such a kind invite to the Royal Castle. We can't afford to have many clothes." He murmured as if he felt embarrassed by his condition.
"We will send you dresses, consider it as an invite to the palace and please tell your wife I would be offended if she doesn't honor us with her presence." John insisted making the coachman smile joyfully to hear how much John cared about him. He finally nodded, "thank you." he bowed down to the two of them before getting back inside the carriage and taking off with a huge smile on his face.
"You made his day." Roselyn said to her husband as she wrapped her arms around his neck, he smiled, "you're the one who had the idea to invite him to lunch. Maybe we should thank him with a sum of money. I will ask my father for some advice on how to thank him furthermore." John stated thoughtfully and Roselyn smiled even more surprised and proud of him.

"Let's get back inside now." He then suggested as he kissed her on her cheek. Roselyn nodded, starting to walk toward their house.
He opened the door and they walked inside, only after John locked the door Roselyn asked the question she had been dying to ask since the herd of animals appeared in front of them,
"What were those animals and why did they have yellow eyes and grey skin?"
When Roselyn asked that question she felt like a huge weight had been taken off her chest.
John didn't seem surprised to hear her ask such a question may be somehow he knew she was curious to know since he knew her very well.
"You see, Rose.." John started sitting on the sofa and taking his time to reorganize his thoughts and think of the best way to explain her. He had to find the right words and modulate his sentence because the last thing he wanted to do was scare her. It seemed difficult to find the right words and not scare her.
"The snakes that we met days ago are demons, as I told you they belong to the underworld of evil supernatural creatures. When I fought against them with Ethan we found out their body is made of a weird yellow liquid and whatever that liquid was it was colliding all the things it went in touch with. The herd of animals we saw today had the eyes of the same color of that liquid so I suppose the snakes may have infected them." John modulated each word not to shock Roselyn too much.
Roselyn took a long breath, she almost forgot about the snakes after all those days, "what happens to the animals infected?" Roselyn asked knitting her eyebrows down but John shrugged, he grimaced with his mouth only to murmur, "I don't know… We don't know yet."

His voice rang in preoccupation and he pulled his hair back, "but that's not a good thing, I thought they wanted to kill humans and feed on them because that's what usually demons do but animals? That is odd. Real demons would never do such a thing not if someone is ordering them to infect all the other animals for a devilish plan we don't know yet."
John laid his head on his hand, trying to figure out what happened and what he could do but the more he thought about it the more he was concerned.
"What's the point of poisoning animals and create an army when they can do what demons usually do? Take over the human body and affect them? I don't understand… I don't." John busted out as he massaged his forehead and in anger clenched his fists.
"Maybe we should think about it tomorrow." Roselyn said, "It's late now." She added, they stayed out all afternoon and both of them needed some rest after the tiring day they had.
"You can go, I ..." John murmured but he didn't finish his sentence making Roselyn frown and wondered what he had in mind now.
"What will you do? It's too late to go out now." She folded her arms as if she understood John's intention and she didn't want him to leave home when it was getting late.
"I don't know… I want to go look for Ethan and talk to him."
Roselyn shook her head vigorously hearing John's idea, "no, no. You can do that tomorrow." Roselyn scolded him and from John's lips escaped a giggle, "Is that an order, your grace?" John smirked as he raised his eyebrow.
"Yes, it is." Roselyn tried to look and sound as serious as she could to convince him not to go, also because she knew if she went out now she would spend the rest of the evening and night concerned about where he may be and wondering if he was fine.
"If you go I will have to follow you to make sure you're fine." She used the special card she knew he couldn't let her be in danger. John curved his lips up, shaking his head like if he understood what Roselyn had in mind.
He smiled at the sign of surrounded as he gave up to Roselyn's threat.
"Fine, I will wait tomorrow then.." He scoffed and Roselyn nodded happily that she convinced him, she took him under his arm and walked toward their bedroom.
