"And…and my voice."
Lapis's face showed surprise, and large tears silently streamed from her eyes.
"This is great, this is great."
"My illness is finally cured."
After the immense joy, Lapis began to wail.
The long-term torment of her illness all poured out at this moment.
"Lapis, look…look at your wounds."
The anxious Carol quickly reminded her.
"Mm."
Lapis nodded, having already pulled off the bandages on her body, revealing skin as fair as mutton-fat jade.
Her delicate face was already rosy and radiant, giving her a healthy beauty.
"It's recovered, everything has recovered."
Looking in the mirror, Lapis cried and laughed at the same time.
"This…this is wonderful."
Carol collapsed to the ground, also crying tears of joy.
"Lapis, you've finally recovered."
After the immense joy came a deep sense of relief.
Thankfully, Sir Alex was so powerful.
Otherwise, wouldn't the only hope of saving his daughter have been personally strangled by him?
On the other side, Lapis, with her vision fully restored, finally saw Alex's appearance clearly.
Black messy hair, black eyes, an indescribable noble aura.
So…so handsome.
Looking at Alex, an undisguised affection emerged in Lapis's grateful eyes.
"Sir Alex, thank you very much for saving me. Lapis is willing to repay your kindness with everything she has."
Lapis's small, soft, white hand gently held Alex's large hand.
"That's very considerate of her."
"This saves a lot of trouble."
Alex, holding Lapis's hand, said meaningfully, "Actually, I really do have something I want to discuss with you."
"Mm…"
Feeling Alex's actions, Lapis's earlobes slightly reddened.
The gratitude for being saved and the love at first sight mixed together, making her little heart pound wildly.
Carol: "..."
What's going on?
This big person is right here; surely his good daughter hasn't forgotten him?
Watching their eyes meet.
He always had the illusion that his own prized cabbage was no longer his.
Or rather.
It wasn't an illusion at all.
But soon.
Carol calmed down.
Wait.
This is a good thing.
He had already pledged the Star Rabbit Clan's allegiance.
If his daughter could become the other party's wife, then he could be completely at ease.
"Cough... cough cough..."
Carol coughed twice, "Alex, I suddenly remembered I have some matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."
After speaking, Carol turned and left, closing the door behind him.
"..."
This move, he was a bit stumped by it.
His future father-in-law was too sensible, wasn't he?
Originally.
Because of the other party's presence.
He had planned to delay things a bit.
After all, it was a bit awkward in front of her father.
But now it seemed.
His worries were completely unnecessary.
Alex's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Lapis, how about becoming my Retainer?"
"Eh?"
Lapis was startled.
"What does Retainer mean?"
"In terms you can understand, it means becoming one of my clan."
Alex briefly explained.
Retaining the identity of the Star Rabbit Clan, but becoming a race called a demon?
Lapis thought to herself.
Her heart, however, remained calm.
Compared to Alex's life-saving grace, these were all minor matters.
However...
Lapis hesitated, "After becoming a demon, my appearance won't change, will it?"
She didn't want to change.
Because she wanted to dedicate her best to Alex.
"Don't worry, your appearance won't change at all."
Hearing Alex's words, Lapis nodded without hesitation, "Okay, I want to become a demon."
"Think carefully, once you become my Retainer, then from now on, both your body, mind, and soul will exist only for me."
Alex reminded her again.
"Alex, I am already like that now."
Lapis smiled and nodded.
From the moment she was saved by Alex.
She had already made her decision.
She, from now on, would belong to Alex...
