"You're really going to make trouble for me."
That night, in the duchess' manor in the southern suburbs of Tobesk, Miss Galina held a teacup and said to Shad who was sitting on the sofa.
At this time, Xia De had just returned from Huntington, and now the murder at the White King Club ended with the arrest of Miss Martha, the arrest of the tobacco dealer and the university lecturer, and the ruin of the dead Earl, but Xia De still visited Beibei as agreed. Mr. Earnhardt's estate.
Hugging the cat, Shade thanked Tifa who was pouring tea, with a very sad expression on his face:
"I don't know how I came across her. Now that I think about it, it's really not a good idea to touch the relics that bring luck. I feel that since I walked out of that wine cellar, it seems that fate has guided me to be involved into that inexplicable incident, and then met Miss Sylvia. Is this good luck or bad luck?"
"Meow!"
The cat opened its mouth and purred, dissatisfied that Xia De's petting speed slowed down.
"This should be considered good luck. That young witch seems to have a good impression of you."
Miss Galina had already listened to Xia De's description, she took a sip of tea with her red lips, and then added:
"All the big witches who have seen you so far have a good impression of you."
"Oh, Miss Galina, stop teasing me."
said Shad, and heard Tifa laughing. But when she looked up at the beautiful black-haired maid, she clearly had no expression on her face. Instead, she opened her beautiful eyes and blinked twice suspiciously.
"Speaking of good luck, can I stay overnight at the manor today?"
Xia De asked, and Miss Galina raised her eyebrows:
"What does good luck have to do with staying overnight? Do you plan to take advantage of today's good luck and come to my bedroom to try your luck?"
She must be joking. The relationship between the two is still close, and this level of jokes is not too much.
"No, I used the relic [Golden Lucky Rabbit Leg] today, and I'm worried that something will go wrong at night. If I stay in the manor and I get into trouble, you can still help me."
"Of course it's no problem, but [Golden Lucky Rabbit Leg]...the one at the Keeper level? You are really good, and you can even find this kind of thing."
"However, the Pantanal Voodoo Society used an ordinary person to poison and murder the Earl of Huntington City. Why?"
Xia De said again.
"According to what you said, the earl's social relations and interest relations are so complicated, there must be many people who want to kill him. However, the Pantanal Voodoo Club is also unlucky this time, and specially asked a six-ring magician to respond. In order to prevent accidents, in the end the count actually died in front of the princess, and even ran into you, and then ran into Sylvia. I can't think of anything more unlucky than this."
The Duchess chuckled, she has nothing to do with this matter, so she can tease this matter as a joke:
"However, the ring warlock organization attacked ordinary people and was discovered. This directly violated the rules set by the church. Huntington Diocese, I am afraid that the next period of time will not be peaceful."
Miss Galina looked at Xia De lazily:
"I'm not sure if you're going to Huntington, besides bringing me a few bottles of local red wine and snacks, is there anything else to do?"
Shard did not come empty-handed, and the red wine was a gift from Mr. Bernhardt.
"But Xia De, you should try your best not to participate in this kind of matter involving nobles and ring magicians, otherwise you will get involved in big trouble."
"I understand that I went to Huntington to find something, not to cause more trouble."
Xia De nodded, but he didn't remember why he went to that strange city today until he returned to the White River Valley Vineyard in the carriage. Fortunately, the vampire clan Mr. Bernhardt belongs to is very well-informed in the local area and can help to find out the news, so Shade is not a waste of time today.
Outside the study room is the bright starry sky in the early winter night. With the half of the frosty moon, winter has really come. However, the first snow in Tobesk usually appears at the end of the Frost Moon, so there is no snow yet, and the night temperature is not unbearably low.
At least in the study of the manor, even if the fireplace has not been lit, it is still warm and cozy. Miss Galina chatted with Shad again about how she ran into Leizia in the Yodel Palace today, and then asked Shad about the preparation for the next time key.
After these topics, Xia De mentioned the reward of "Poison Ivy Maxxis", and said with some uncertainty:
"Is that Miss Emma Sylvia very short of money? Probably my illusion, she is a little concerned about the reward of 3,000 pounds."
"She is different from us. Although the young thirteenth seat has inherited a large amount of inheritance from the previous generation of witches, she has no sustainable profitable property in her hands. I told you before that Sylvia is a very smart, and A girl who sees things very far. From the perspective of assets, she is not particularly short of money, but from the perspective of the future, she is indeed short of money. After all, it takes money for a witch to develop her followers. "
Miss Galina smiled at Xia De:
"Besides, she shouldn't be particularly concerned about such a small amount as 3,000 pounds. The 3,000 pounds you mentioned should only be a reward offered by the Church of Nature. A guy like this who has been offered a high reward by the Orthodox Church will definitely not only have his back on his back." A wanted warrant. In this way, the ring magician of the Pantanal Voodoo Society is worth at least five figures of gold pounds."
"Oh, this is really not a small amount."
Xia De sighed softly, but he didn't feel that Miss Sylvia had stolen his money. After all, she caught the bald man by herself, and she had to figure out a way to get the reward by herself. Xia De couldn't do these things.
Miss Galina, who was looking at the starry sky in the window behind Shad, asked her personal maid, and Tifa replied:
"Miss, it is eight o'clock."
"Five minutes."
Shad reminded.
"Xia De, then you go to the parliament with us. Sylvia asked me to meet alone. Other people in the council will not enter at this time. You don't have to worry too much, young Sylvia, Bixiwei and Ka Granny Sandra is much easier to deal with."
Miss Galina said confidently, stood up, took off her gold necklace, and asked Tifa to hand it to Shad:
"This time, you come to open the door."
With the cat on his shoulders, followed by Tifa and Miss Galina, under Shade's slightly out-of-key singing, the group of three entered the long ancient corridor together in the corridor.
After passing through the fog door at the end of the corridor, they entered the white fog. Tifa and Miss Galina reached out and grabbed Shad's arm, and Shad held the witch's necklace and said softly:
"May the hidden chaos bless me, who is also a witch!"
The white mist dissipated, and an unexplained light illuminated the somewhat gloomy interior of the parliament. An old stone round table is placed in the center of the circular flat ground, surrounded by a series of upward steps. Now that the parliament is empty, it seems that Miss Sylvia did not arrive early.
"We discussed something during our meeting some time ago."
After taking back the necklace in Xia De's hand, Miss Galina found her own stone chair and sat down:
"Sister Davelyn has become an important partner of the parliament. Your Excellency the Speaker is discussing with us whether to give her the qualification to sit in the parliament."
There are many more real witches in the fifth era than there are now. Although only thirteen are eligible to have seats, other witches can also be eligible to attend the meeting, but they don't have the right to vote.
"At the meeting? What good does it do a nun?"
Xia De asked while looking around.
"Can participate in our discussions on important issues, and can obtain limited and independent access to parliament."
Miss Galina said, Tifa stood behind her, the cat on Shade's shoulder looked around, and Shade looked suspiciously at the witch:
"Entering Parliament alone?"
"Yes, except for the thirteen pieces of gold jewelry, ring warlocks attending the meeting can enter the parliament with a certificate issued by the speaker. Oh, Xia De, don't look at me, I am not the speaker, and, for You credential, what can you do when you enter here?"
She thought she had seen through Xia De's mind:
"To enter the parliament, you need to sing the song completely in an environment where no one is around, so it can't be used as a temporary refuge when encountering enemies. Even if you are given a certificate, you can't use it here."
"I see."
Xia De nodded. He was just thinking that if he could enter here at any time, then he might be able to explore more uses for the voting rights he obtained through the two witch reverberations.
The two were talking when footsteps came, and Miss Emma Sylvia with black shawl and short hair appeared in the parliament as if she had stepped out of the air. She was still wearing a long red dress, but it was different from the afternoon style. In addition, she also had a long-sleeved white fur shawl on her upper body. The night in Huntington must have been quite cool.
She first saw Miss Galina who was already seated, and nodded respectfully. He was not surprised by Tifa's appearance, but after seeing Shad, his brows were deeply frowned:
"So, this gentleman, is it really a lady?"
While talking, I found my seat. And when the second great witch was seated, the surrounding light became stronger.
"No~www.mtlnovel.com~ Of course it's a man, I checked."
Miss Galina said, seeing Miss Silvia looking at her suspiciously, she added:
"It is only confirmed that he is a male from the perspective of physical structure, but I think my judgment should be correct. Then, let me tell you what the situation is now."
Miss Galina motioned for Shad to come over, and under the gaze of Miss Sylvia, the red-haired duchess raised her arms to let Shad bow her head, then wrapped her arms around Shad's neck and kissed him for a long time Then he looked at the surprised young witch again:
"Shad Sullen Hamilton, a male, a male who can also be contacted by a witch, a male who can use the power of a witch. According to Tobesk's rumors, he is my lover."
Miss Sylvia didn't expect to hear this kind of news as soon as she came up, she hesitated:
"Then the reality is..."
"It's about the same as the rumors, but not as extreme as the rumors."
The red-haired duchess smiled, but it was a terrifying look with a smile on her face but no smile in her eyes at all:
"Sylvia, I think you should know what the existence of Mr. Hamilton means to Parliament."
