The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1126: Chapter 1126: Your Words Are So Hurtful!

Delarosa stared into Carson Flores’s determined eyes, certain of his intentions.

He wasn’t joking, nor was he feigning withdrawal.

He really meant it.

If sand couldn’t be grasped, then let it scatter.

Even if it meant defying the mighty, invincible Ghost Tower, spanning ten thousand years, he was unwilling to bow his head.

Delarosa remained silent, contemplating.

Carson Flores wasn’t in a hurry either, looking around: ”For over ten thousand years, have you been living here alone? Don’t you feel lonely?”

Delarosa’s eyes, calm as autumn water, trembled slightly, her tone as steady and cool as always, ”As an Artifact Spirit, the first thing to learn is to get accustomed to loneliness.”

After a moment of thought, Delarosa added, ”When I truly get bored, I simply appear and observe the variety of life among the adventurers. That’s how the days pass.”

Carson Flores sighed, ”Humans are social animals. Living alone for over ten thousand years, even Immortals might go insane. It’s not an easy life.”

What Carson Flores said was genuinely from the heart; after all, such a life was far too terrifying to even think about.

If eternal life was like this, what was the point?

Delarosa’s gaze held a subtle nuance. Since ancient times, the Human Race, even the Human Emperor, would speak politely and cautiously before her. But this young man was so casual...

His words were so piercingly heartfelt.

Delarosa felt she couldn’t let Carson Flores continue sighing like this. Who knew what else he might say?

Did this guy think it was no big deal because he felt backed by Immortals?

Desireless is invincible?

A trace of annoyance arose in Delarosa’s heart. Was she actually being ignored by someone?

Delarosa opened with a question, ”You don’t seem to care whether you can get Ghost Tower or not.”

Carson Flores gave a smile, ”Do you want the truth?”

Delarosa pursed her lips and eventually nodded.

Talking with this guy, for some reason, Delarosa found it quite interesting and oddly relaxing.

He reminded her a bit of that person from the past.

Carson Flores laughed lightly: ”I heard from a Fairy that Ghost Tower mostly likely originates from the Immortal Realm. Simply put, it has a significant background. Over the past ten thousand years, countless powerful figures have tried to conquer Ghost Tower, none succeeding, many dying in the attempt. This shows that Ghost Tower, ahem, that is, you, are unwilling to be beneath others.”

”Of course, it might be because we are too weak in your eyes. After all, with your terrifying power, it’s normal for you to have higher standards and be more choosy.”

”I’m just at the Initial Spirit Transformation Stage, not even mid-stage yet. You look down on many Hollow Void elite and talented fighters, so surely you look down on me even more. Me signing a master-servant contract with you, where I’m the master and you’re the servant, is basically impossible.”

”The current situation is that you wouldn’t want it, and I’m also unwilling to step back, so it’s destined that we can’t reach an agreement. Since that’s the case, why should I care?”

Carson Flores candidly expressed his thoughts, smacking his lips: ”However, I am curious about how Bryant James answered and chose during his time in the Chamber of Conscience.”

Delarosa’s gaze turned subtle, ”Do you have a grudge against him?”

Carson Flores smiled, ”You could say that.”

After a moment of thought, Delarosa proposed, ”I’ll tell you his answers if you share your story with me, including your grudge against him. How about that?”

Carson Flores raised his eyebrows, ”My stories, in the eyes of beings like you, who span the annals of history, are probably trivial matters...”

Looking into Delarosa’s eyes, imagining her spending ten thousand years here without anyone to talk to, Carson’s heart softened, shifting gears, ”Alright, if you don’t think it’s all trivial stuff, I’ll start from the beginning...”

Delarosa nodded slightly, ”Go ahead, I’m listening.”

Carson Flores began from his birth and roughly went through his life story, not even hiding matters concerning Shirley Miller and Samantha Tate.

Delarosa listened intently, occasionally asking a few questions.

In this manner, through questions and answers, Carson Flores finished telling his life story.

Delarosa was quite astonished, ”You’re quite lucky, visiting three of the Six Great Forbidden Lands, safe and sound, and even becoming the Human Emperor...”

Carson Flores smiled, ”Yes, my master also said that my fortune is unmatched, that I have great predestined connections with the Immortal Realm.”

Delarosa asked, ”Since Bryant James is dead set on killing you, why don’t you just kill him outright?”

Carson Flores explained his thoughts, ”This time it’s just to teach him a lesson, to give Kahdas some face. If there’s a next time, I will naturally kill him.”

Delarosa relayed Bryant James’s answers.

After listening, Carson Flores nodded: ”Pretty fitting, his ambitions are much greater than mine. It’s just a pity that he’s narrow-minded and petty.”

Suddenly, Delarosa gestured with her hand, and a green gourd appeared in her hand.

She took out a cup, opened the gourd, and a clear green liquid flowed out, quickly filling the cup.

Delarosa put away the gourd, waved her hand, and the cup flew up, landing in front of Carson Flores.

”You entered this hall on your own merit and have talked with me for so long. This cup of wine is your reward. I can’t let you go back empty-handed...”
