Читать книгу A girl at the Demon Academy. They don’t know who I am and neither do I онлайн | страница 9

– The girl has arrived. Come out. You will be met at the entrance. He smiled broadly at me. – If anything, I’m also the groom’s assistant Anton. Come if you need a horse. He said quieter. Or a rider.

I got off the carriage. Without things in the dark of the night. Nothing was visible. A plump woman approached me with a lantern in her hand. Clearly a cyclops. One brown eye was visible from afar.

– Darling, you’ve arrived. Come in. You are the last one today. You will like Julia Silver here. I’m Polly, your sorority superintendent. For all questions come to me. You will spend the next five years with us. We will become friends. The main thing is not to create problems.

She took me by the arms and led me to the academy.

«Everyone is already asleep, so be quiet.» You don’t want to make enemies on your first day at the academy. She thought for a moment and added. – You will have so many of them. You are not of noble birth. And here mostly aristocrats study. But Claudius saw something in you and called to us. I signed you up at the very last moment. So you’re kind of a celebrity here. The other ladies have already been talking about you. They don’t know how to be with you. Suddenly you are his secret lover. There are about three of them in the empire. Although these are all rumors, I do not believe them and you do not believe. You never know what girls chat over tea. They just need to grind the bones. – We reached one of the doors. – This is your room, lady. Forty eight. Don’t forget your number.

She opened the door and I saw that there was another lady sleeping two.

– Are there rooms for two?

– Yes, lady. King Rex himself decided so. He wants the ladies to live together. And there were many suicides. This is a cruel place. So if something happens, come to me right away. I’ll put these upstarts in their place right away. And the guys, if they come, too. A few upstarts didn’t want to live with you. I had to put you up with our freckle. She is also ignorant. They are farmers. She has a knack for managing the land. She’s kind. The name is Lena.
