The figure sensed someone approaching and suddenly raised its head. Upon meeting Ming Li’s emotionless gaze, the eyes beneath the messy hair froze. It spoke instinctively, its voice filled with disbelief, "Qu... Queen Your Majesty..."
Ming Li frowned. "What do you mean?"
Hearing Ming Li's voice, the person bound by chains became agitated. After a moment, she suppressed her excitement, leaned forward, and cried out, "Qu... Queen Your Majesty! Danya, the nineteenth Queen, welcomes Queen Your Majesty back!"
Ming Li: "......" What? What was this person saying? Why couldn't she understand anything?
"System, want to come out for a walk?" Judging by this person's words, there might be some hidden plot...
The system heard Ming Li's call and emerged from the system space. "Host, what's up?"
Ming Li: "Who is that?"
System: "......?"
Following Ming Li's gaze, the system saw a person wrapped like a zongzi in chains.
After being stunned, the system quickly initiated a character scan.
"Huh? What's going on?" After three seconds, the system transmitted the scanned information to Ming Li. "Host, this person is a witch of the Blood Race, but wasn't this one killed by the Vampire Queen? How is she still alive?"
Ming Li: "...... Heh, is your plot faulty..."
━━(￣ー￣*|||━━
System: "......"
The system dared not speak and quickly retreated.
Ming Li's lips twitched. She dragged the system out again. "Why does she call me Your Majesty?"
System: "Ah??"
Seeing the system's utterly bewildered look, the veins on Ming Li's forehead twitched. After enduring it for a while, she finally threw the system back into the space.
The system, having escaped another calamity, breathed a sigh of relief and dared not make a sound, resorting to gnawing on a chicken leg to calm its nerves.
Ming Li looked at Danya, who was bound like a zongzi by chains, and furrowed her brow. With a wave of her hand, the chains instantly snapped. Freed from restraint, Danya fell from the air and landed on the ground.
"Ugh!"
Danya let out a pained groan and looked at Ming Li, saying, "Thank you for your salvation, Your Majesty!"
"What do you mean by that?"
Danya was stunned by Ming Li's words. After realizing what she had said, she quickly got up and bowed again, "Welcome back, Queen Your Majesty, reborn!"
Looking up, she met Ming Li's confused gaze and was stunned again. She cautiously asked, "Your Majesty is..."
Ming Li raised an eyebrow. "Hmm?"
"May I have Your Majesty show me your hand?"
Ming Li extended her hand. Danya looked at the fair, slender hand, then at her own dirty one. After hesitating, she finally said, "Please, Your Majesty, turn your hand over."
Ming Li's expression remained unchanged as she turned her hand, palm facing upwards.
Danya stared at Ming Li's palm for a long time, then suddenly took out a small dagger. Just as Ming Li thought she was up to something, she saw Danya cut her own palm with the dagger. Blood gushed out instantly, splashing all over the ground.
Danya frowned and began to draw something on the ground with her blood, mumbling continuously, as if reciting some kind of incantation.
Ming Li narrowed her eyes, watching the scene without speaking.
After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Danya stopped her actions and looked up at Ming Li. "Your Majesty, may I have your first drop of blood here?"
Ming Li: "......"
