Starchild Escapes Arranged Marriage

Chapter 1254

The Red Heart Queen's masquerade ball is held at random times, inviting guests is done at random, multiple invitations are sent out, but only the first few guests who receive an invitation can attend.

The number of guests attending each time is not fixed, the most has been twelve people, the least has been only three.

And for this Red Heart Queen's masquerade ball, there are seven people.

Hosting the ball is the Abyss Sovereign, also known as the dreaded Red Heart Queen.

The first guest invited - a prince riding a white horse.

Soon, other guests who received the invitation arrived at the dance through the deep red gate.

The first to arrive was the regular guest of the Red Heart Queen's Masquerade, the Great Witch Flora from the Witch God's Domain.

Wearing a cloak with a gray raven hood, the Great Witch stepped out from the twilight, looked around, and was surprised to find that she wasn't the first guest to arrive this time.

Because of a special spell of fate, she had an extraordinary connection with the Red Heart Queen's masquerade. Basically, every time the Red Heart Queen held a dance, she was the first one to receive the news.

In the past eleven dances, she had the last laugh six times. Even when the God Slaying Sky Sword interrupted the dance and escaped, she survived and took her share of the legend-ranked food.

Anyway, for the Great Witch of the Witch God's Domain, she didn't need "the blood of the legendary multi-headed dragon."

The reason? Just look at the majestic mountain peak that makes all girls feel inferior, almost bursting out of their clothes. That is the symbol of the highest-ranked Great Witch in the Witch God's Domain.

In a sense, this is a talent that even the gods would envy.

"It's rare. I should be the first one to receive the invitation," Flora said, looking around at the familiar scenery.

The band Nightmare World has a unique fairytale style, with a procession team and serious tea cup soldiers, all in the style of the Red Heart Queen.

The chefs in the entire Endless God's Domain are eager for the delicious food, and they work diligently to bring plate after plate of exquisite dishes to the long table.

All of these dishes are hero-ranked delicacies that everyone in Endless God's Domain desires. They are strategic reserve level dishes for the major organizations.

The legend-rankeded dishes listed on the invitation have not been made yet. The chefs from Nightmare World are working hard to prepare these mythical ingredients.

"Include a portion of premium chicken snake meat, coated in honey and fried until 70% cooked." Great Witch Flora rarely encounters chefs from Nightmare World, so she skillfully hands over the high-quality chicken snake meat she brought to the busy chefs.

This is a small privilege for her as a frequent winner at Red Heart Queen's Masquerade. She can ask these chefs, who possess the power of Nightmare World, to help cook the ingredients she brings.

Of course, they won't make dishes that are of legend-ranked. The limit is within the hero-ranked range of ingredients.

The Chicken Snake Monster is a monster in the Western God's Domain that has caused many novice heroes to fail. If you are stared at by its eyes and don't have petrification immunity, almost 100% of the time, you will turn into a statue.

Every year, unlucky adventurers who have been petrified are found in the forest. The number is counted based on how many have been defeated. Sometimes, even unlucky adventurers who went missing hundreds of years ago are found.

The people turned into stone can only find a witch or a priest who is good at lifting curses to help them. But it is very expensive.

The unfortunate adventurers who cannot afford to pay to be cured of their stone curse, even if someone finds them, no one will bring them back. They become part of the forest, slowly weathering away under the sun and rain.

Therefore, adventurers in the Western God's Domain always carry something like a dog tag to prove that they have the wealth to lift their stone curse.

Before going on an adventure, it is a unique culture in the Western God's Domain to deposit a sum of money in the temple to cover the cost of retrieving their bodies. This has led to the development of a series of related insurance services.

The sixth-ranked Chicken Snake Monster is one of the main causes for the emergence of this business.

Few people know that the meat of the Chicken Snake Monster is extremely delicious after removing its poison. It is not only tender and tasty, but also has a skin whitening effect.

Great Witch Flora is one of the very few people who know about this effect. However, even if someone hunts down a Chicken Snake Monster, she doesn't know how to perfectly remove the poison.

The petrification toxin is a natural talent of the Chicken Snake Monster. Only life professions ranked as hero or higher can perfectly remove the troublesome toxin without sacrificing the quality of the meat.

There are very few life professions in the Endless God's Domain that specialize in food. The Witch God's Domain only had one, and she was not even her subordinate. But the Ten Leaves Alliance took her away. She really liked bear cookies!

The Great Witch Flora became interested in observing another participant of the Red Heart Queen's Masquerade after the chefs made a delicious dish called "Honey-flavored Chicken Snake Monster" using the meat of a monster that was almost as powerful as the sixth-ranked hero, Field.

A shiny silver metal body.

The strange face had one eye covered, and its overall shape gave a natural and delicate feeling, as if it had some subtle resemblance to the host of the ball, the Red Heart Queen.

A rare sacred unicorn, a bright creature that only virgins can ride. It had an extraordinary passion for pure and beautiful maidens.

"Is this the style of Mechanical God's Domain?"

"No, the legendary Cyber Elf Alpha is even smaller. You have the taste of time on you."

"Is this... a trace from the time before the Twilight Age of the Gods?"

"I apologize, I didn't expect you to be such an ancient predecessor."

After smelling the scent of time on the faceless god, Flora bowed as a sign of respect to the senior who walked the path of the legend-ranked.

However, despite respect, the opponents who participate in the Red Heart Queen's Masquerade at the legend-ranked will always remain the same.

In the end, only one person will be the winner and receive the highest reward.

Great Witch Flora participated in the Red Heart Queen's Masquerade six times, and she only lost once. And that time, it wasn't really her fault. In fact, she was leading by a lot until the very end.

If we follow the rules set by the Red Heart Queen, she would still be the winner of that time.

The God Slaying Sky Sword, who realized the situation was bad, got angry and decided to stop playing altogether, even flipping the table.

With her own abilities, this God Slaying Sky Sword fought fiercely at the ball, killing and escaping the Red Heart Queen hundreds of times, and finally stealing the highest reward, the "Legendary Multi-headed Dragon."

Because of this, she was put on the Red Heart Queen's Masquerade forever blacklist and probably won't be invited again in her lifetime.

From Great Witch Flora's perspective, that person really gained something small and lost something big. It's not worth it for just a little bit of demon dragon's blood that can make her chest a little bigger!

Clearly, this time the Red Heart Queen's Blood Wine is worth even more.
