Sold to a Prince!-Chapter 127 - Brother Vs Sister Part3

Sylvia quickly stood up and bowed in front of the Lord, suddenly regretting that they were quite far from the castle where others were.

She didn't know if Theo was still there keeping an eye on her from somewhere in the distance, but she had a feeling that this man might do something crazy.

He had proposed to her out of nowhere the last time they had met, so just what the hell was he planning this time???

Sylvia sighed wondering why this demonic pair of siblings won't just leave her be.

Gabriel chuckled as if he could read the thoughts in Sylvia's head. "I won't do anything to you, I swear." He raised his hand and took a step back sitting down on the neatly trimmed lawn.

"Would you care to join me, my Lady?" came a mellow greeting. Sylvia just kept on staring at him, wondering what the hell he was getting at.

Gabriel lifted a hand and gestured to the spot next to him. "Come on. I don't bite."

Sylvia hesitated for a second, but then she decided to sit down as she was helpless anyway even if he decided to do something unsavory.

Sitting down or not sitting down wouldn't exactly make a difference when the other party was several times more powerful than her.

"Do you see that constellation up in the sky? The one shaped like a small worm?" He asked, cocking his head back and staring at the sky with a small smile on his lips.

Sylvia looked up, following his hand, confused as to what he was talking about. She gazed at the group of stars that clustered together in the shape of a…

"That doesn't look like a worm to me…?" Sylvia muttered.

"What does it look like?" Gabriel chuckled, seeing that he had finally managed to somewhat have a normal conversation with her.

Sylvia, however, had already forgotten about the man sitting next to her. She didn't know why but she felt vague energy filling her body as she gazed at the constellation of stars.

"Heh. You seem to be extremely captivated by them?" Gabriel pulled his lips upwards in amusement.

The man had sharp features which made him look quite handsome. That coupled with the fact that he was the Duke's son with an extremely high magic talent, made him stand out.

Save for Crown Prince Denault, the man was even as popular as the other young men of the main royal family.

However, all that seemed to be a waste right now as the woman sitting next to him did not even spare him a glance.

"Do you want to know something interesting about the stars?" Gabriel probed. "Some of us, powerful magicians, we are able to absorb the energy of the stars."

He shifted his gaze to see if the woman was impressed by his words but unfortunately, she was still simply staring at the stars.

Sylvia was in her own world and she absentmindedly muttered. "The stars… I don't think it's a worm…"

"Then, what do you think they represent?" Gabriel chuckled in amusement.

Stars and constellations were not cloud patterns. They did not take different shapes according to the imagination of the beholder.

So he was curious to hear what the beautiful platinum blond sitting next to him thought of it.

He had never seen a woman as beautiful and as pure as her, a purity that had nothing to do with her body and everything to do with her soul.

It was as if even the depth of hell couldn't taint someone like her.

Gabriel raised his hand to caress her soft and slightly pink cheeks that glittered under the moonlight when he suddenly stopped seeing Sylvia's lips part. Google search f𝘳𝚎𝗲𝘸e𝐛𝑛𝐨𝘃𝘦𝚕. co𝚖

"They look like a snake… or maybe a dragon." She mumbled. Sylvia felt something stir within her as she continued gazing at the stars.

She could almost sense millions and millions of tiny white energy dots swirling around her, sinking into her body like a black hole and filling her with energy.

This was a different kind of energy than just the mana swirling in the air around her. If those were blue energy dots, these were white energy dots.

The two were different, both in quality and in power. Before today, Sylvia had never paid any attention to it, but now that she had she couldn't help but notice the difference.

Lost in the warmth and comfort that the pure intoxicating energy showered on her, she continued slowly breathing in and breathing out, absorbing everything that she could feel.

She did not even realize that the wound, the slight bruise on her hand had already healed without leaving behind any scar.

Gabriel stared at her as if he was seeing a ghost, completely unable to believe what was happening right in front of him.

Even he was not as attuned to the stellar energy like Sylvia was and he could only vaguely sense her drinking in everything around them.

"You…" Gabriel stammered. He suddenly realized just how wrong he had been. The woman was indeed special but not because of her beauty.

This girl sitting next to him like a random nobody was not in the least ordinary!

His assumptions might be a little far-fetched but on the off chance that he was indeed correct… this woman… she could have a body constitution that might even make the Mage High Council chairman drool.

"Did she never get tested for magic aptitude?" Gabriel pondered. "And if she didn't… then perhaps…" His thoughts trailed off as he suddenly heard footsteps walking towards them.

Not wanting to share his unexpected discovery with anyone else, Gabriel quickly patted Sylvia on the shoulder, making her snap out of her trance.

"Ah… I am sorry, my Lord." Sylvia muttered wiping her mouth as she felt as if she had drooled.

Did I just sleep with my eyes open, that too next to a stranger? Sylvia was amazed at her own carelessness.

"I should be going now, my Lord." She quickly stood up and bowed, only to see Priscella standing a few feet away from them.
