"Where is my necklace? Have you seen it?" Eve asked anxiously, "A black diamond-shaped one, about this size." She gestured with her hands.
The maid looked puzzled, "We cleaned your body and dressed your wounds but didn't see the necklace you mentioned."
Eve felt a chill in her heart. She had grown accustomed to relying on that mysterious noble, and now that he had suddenly disappeared, she felt a void within her.
"Your Highness!" At that moment, the maid suddenly assumed a respectful demeanor and curtsied towards a certain direction.
Eve looked up and was momentarily stunned.
Apart from that noble, she had never seen anyone so beautiful.
No, the two were distinctly different. That noble's appearance was like a dangerously seductive flower, luring ignorant mortals to their downfall.
While this Highness seemed like the incarnation of the divine brightness that the Holy See preached about; beautiful, pure, and nobly untouchable.
