Chapter 75 - Lock Me Up
"Someone is heading to your room, you need to go back."
Quintas said, sending me back to my room.
Before I could ask him, I was already standing on the floor of the room.
There was a knock at the door, and I looked at my clothes, which were not soiled.
When I opened the door, there was a maid standing outside.
"Miss Jenny, I'm glad you're still awake, Lord Quintas would like to see you, please follow me."
The maid said, making a gesture of invitation to me.
"Did he say what he wanted to see me about?"
I asked.
"Not really."
The maid answered and then walked ahead to lead the way.
A moment later, she led me to a lavish hall.
Quintas was sitting on a sofa in the middle of the hall, glanced at me, and gestured for me to sit over.
"King Quintas, when will Klopp be back? I'm worried about him."
I said to him as I sat down in front of him.
"He'll be back, came over to you just to ask you about Sarnus being killed, what really happened that day?"
Quintas asked looking at me.
I told him what had happened that day, except for the poisoning of Klopp.
"I got word today that Peter has put out a bounty on the other Bloods for you and Klopp and there are vampire hunters, it won't be long before they find this place."
Quintas said to me.
"When Klopp comes back, we will leave here as soon as we can and we won't cause you any trouble."
I said to him, and I did want to get out of here.
"No, I am not asking you to leave, instead I want you to stay here and I will help you take back the throne."
Quintas said.
"Thanks, but I'd like to go to the bathroom."
I said to him, the small of my back started to hurt at this time.
The pain wasn't very strong, but it made me feel uncomfortable.
A maid led me toward the bathroom as the pain grew stronger and stronger.
I fell to my knees and grabbed my clothes with both hands in a death grip as I desperately tried to suppress my voice and sweat soaked through my clothes.
My stomach also began to get bigger.
Until the pain faded, I no longer had the strength to stand up, leaning against the wall and breathing heavily.
"Is she still in there?"
It was Quintas' voice, asking the maid in Bloodborne.
"Yes, the pollen added to her food should have worked."
The maid replied to Quintas.
The communication between them was also in Bloodborne.
I slowly stood up and walked towards the door, wiping the sweat from my face.
"Miss Jenny, are you okay?"
The maid asked, looking at me.
"I'm fine, just a little uncomfortable, pregnant women do that, don't worry about it."
I replied with a smile.
Quintas gestured for the maid to leave.
I sat on the couch and Quintas looked at me.
"Sarnus asked us to come to you before he died, how much do you know about Peter? Or how sure are you that you can help Klopp?"
I asked, looking at him.
"I also asked Klopp, and he told me that Peter did it to Sarnus because Sarnus wanted to make you and Klopp's child a king, so he did it to Sarnus, and since Sarnus died to save you, where is his ring of kings?"
Quintas asked.
"Klopp has it, it's his father's relic, and of course it's in his custody."
I replied.
"Okay, I know, I will talk to Klopp about this, as long as he gives me the King's ring, I will believe what you say, otherwise, I will not help you against Peter, to defeat him, you will have to think of your own way."
Quintas also had no patience to continue talking with me.
I stood up, turned around and walked back.
The one who was imprisoned was the real Quintas, that much was certain.
Because this one, at all, hadn't noticed that I had Sarnus' ring of kings on me, while that one, without even seeing me take it out, could already tell.
But I didn't know what it would take to help the real Quintas get out of captivity.
I had just walked into the room when the maid closed the room door behind me.
Then, I heard the sound of the room door being unlocked.
"Hey! What are you doing? Why are you locking me? Let me out!"
I shouted and kept rapping on the door of the room.
"Miss Jenny, you'd better be honest, or else, you won't see that man again."
The maid answered me icily from outside the door.
I stopped my hand, the man she was talking about must be Klopp.
"You bastards! What have you done to him? If you hurt him, I'll throw you all into the holy water pool to soak in the hot springs!"
I cursed loudly and angrily, and the whole room was filled with my roar.
The maid outside the door didn't answer me again, she should have already left.
I kicked hard towards the door of the room, venting my anger.
The bastards were finished.
I swore in my heart.
But it was clear to me that scolding them would not solve the problem.
I looked in the direction of the window, if I could save the real Quintas, I could beat that bastard up.
With that in mind, I climbed up on the windowsill again and looked in the direction of the tree tops.
The rope didn't have time to take it down, and I was able to climb up with it.
This time, just as I stood on the ledge, Quintas' red mist lifted me up and up toward the top.
"I'll cut the crap with you, I believe you are the real Quintas, that bastard kidnapped my fiancé, if you can help me beat him up badly, I can get you out."
I whispered in the direction of the trunk of the tree just as I stood firm.
"Although I've wanted to get out of here for a long time, I can feel that you're not in a good condition, you're pregnant? And still a blood offspring?"
Quintas just asked me with what seemed like a laugh.
"You're right about everything, they put the pollen from the resurrection flower in my food, I don't know what it does."
I replied.
"The pollen of the compound flower allows the fetus to grow faster, but in exchange, the mother's life is consumed so quickly that if too much is consumed, the fetus grows so fast that it not only cuts the gestation period in half, but requires twice the amount of life energy as a normal cycle."
Quintas' tone became somewhat serious.
"I don't understand, why would they do that?"
I frowned.
"The power of the blood gift awakening is an absolute temptation for any blood, and for me as well, but Sarnus and I are brothers, I would never do something like that, if you want to save me, I'll tell you when your body recovers."
Quintas finished speaking and a red quad ray burrowed into my wrist and disappeared.
"Hey, what did you do to me?"
I looked at my hand, a little angry at this.
"Don't be afraid, although my power is also sealed in this giant tree, my soul power can disable the rejuvenating pollen in your food, so you can eat it without worry."
Quintas explained to me.
"Okay, thanks."
When I finished, he sent me back to my room.
For the next two days, the maid's attitude toward me was obviously colder than before, not even bothering to talk to me, with contempt for me in her eyes.
In order to get my body back as soon as possible, I ate every time the maid brought me food, and incidentally added afternoon tea and snacks to myself every day.
