The first is to return to school today, and the second is to return at night.
Recently reduced vertical and horizontal traffic? Did everyone go out for a holiday?
At three o'clock in the afternoon, everybody, please get more red tickets.
Thanks to the friends in the book review area for their suggestions. After I have been busy for two days, I will sort things out after graduation.

Adeline’s research on Masoka cards is not a waste of sleep and sleep. A person with outstanding computing power and memory naturally understands the word "efficiency" far beyond ordinary people, but when she walks down from her room, And while holding the newly prepared "Knight: Morpheus? Roland" draft card in her hand, she was wondering whether she needed to ask the housekeeper to help herself to investigate something, but she heard a hearty laugh from her father in the living room.
This is not a kind of politeness. Adeline, who is familiar with his father, is very clear that this is the father’s sincere way of welcoming him. The laughter is the most sincere, the silence is the most indifferent rejection, Haring Of the three times Viscount Dunton had been invited to Earl's Court, only the last time allowed his father to laugh a few times, his attitude was self-evident.
Adeline stopped and did not recklessly go down the stairs, but looked at the hall from the corridor of the second floor through the gap of wood carvings-from this angle she could just spy on the guests in the hall, while the other party But it is difficult to notice their own existence.
But at a glance, she slightly squeezed the card in her hand-the person who came was exactly Morpheus, which was a little unexpected for her, of course, she was more curious in her heart, although she did not like Morpheus. Too much, but a young man who can kill Rogol the Bear in an astonishing posture without changing the color in front of her face has no merit at all afterwards. This is the place that allows her to recognize it, no matter whether it is trying to kill or not, at least ten Eight-year-old Adeline didn't see any traces of pretentiousness.
Morpheus is a very ordinary dark-colored noble robe, and the short sword and scabbard at the waist is simple and generous. There is no other precious ornaments, but it is simple and not simple. This seems to be in line with the image of a noble family with deep heritage. , Earl Bolton sat in an armchair near the fireplace and talked to him, and he could see that he was in a good mood, and the face of Morpheus was right in the direction of Adeline, with a natural smile, which made Adeline involuntarily take him and that forever. Compared with a Viscount Harrington wearing a mask—when the autonomy of marriage is limited to a limited number of people, although they are reluctant to admit it, girls are still easy to compromise.
"On the winter day of Medici, only winter hunting can make people look forward to, but they don’t want to have a big deal. The Brooke family would also like to thank you for your original shot, otherwise my baby girl has something wrong, I may want I regret it all my life."
The opening remarks of Earl Bolton are thanks. Naturally, the necessary politeness will not be avoided, and Morpheus nodded and replied in a slightly whispering whisper: "As a knight, in this situation, it is not Stand up and be absolutely ashamed of your sword."
The knight awards of the Fording Empire are most commonly known as "sword giving ceremony". The knight’s sword is blessed and given to the knight. Morpheus After a lot of scrutiny, the words at this moment have no flaws.
"I don't think every knight can rush ahead at that moment, I admire your courage."
Count Bolton’s voice was slightly rugged, and he waved his servant to prepare for the dinner. The meaning of the words was naturally to leave the Brooke family’s optimistic guests to dine together, and it happened that Adelin appeared at the stairway at this time. He looked at Morpheus with a surprised face, and then elegantly walked down the skirt corner, politely sat down next to his father.
"My daughter Adeline Brooke, she has never had time to express her gratitude."
Count Botton naturally understands that her daughter must have been on the second floor for a long time before deciding to go downstairs-to be a regular guest, let alone go downstairs, she won’t even take a few glances, now she His attitude actually made Bolton affirm that his daughter was not disgusted or even slightly favored, and felt relieved in her heart.
It’s very difficult to be in the position of a lord. It’s natural to love my daughter and not want her to be wronged, but it is the responsibility of the entire family to expand and maintain stability. It is simply appropriate to find a balance.
Viscount Harrington? Since the daughter can't look down on it, you don't have to worry too much.
"Beautiful Ms. Adeline."
Morpheus stood up and bowed to salute, but it was a courtesy to kiss the back of the hand, while Adelin, who originally rejected all suitors, did not refuse, but instead looked at Morpheus with a little shame and curiosity, and said softly: "I always wanted I know, how high is your knight rank?"
This sentence is really not what an ordinary noble girl would ask. She who is proficient in the Masoka card is naturally sensitive and obsessed with the data piled up by the data. In fact, if the description is more appropriate, make a perfect For a card that meets the Morpheus data, Adeline will even feel that he is holding this card, then Morpheus is really beside him.
"Low-level knight."
The answer in Morpheus's mouth made Marquis Bolton a little shocked, but it was immediately relieved-a baron with so many territories naturally has something outstanding, is he a noble with the status of royal knight? It is said that the forbidden knight can apply for the status of a royal knight and have a large territory and wealth after the strength of the knight has passed the threshold of the big knight, but the condition is to contribute to the monarch unconditionally during the war.
"Roland family loyal to Fording royal family?"
Count Botton asked his question, and Morpheus had already prepared, and looked away from Adeline who was smiling at him, and replied nonchalantly: "Although the identity of the Royal Knight is tempting , But it is not irresistible for the Roland family."
Without too much explanation, she answered the earl’s question without leaking. Marquis Bolton nodded with satisfaction. He recognized the faint pride contained in the Morpheus discourse. An unconfident nobleman could not fight for his faith. Yes, now he looks more and more pleasing to Morpheus, seeing the servant coming, knowing that the dinner is ready, he gets up and greets Morpheus and his daughter to go to the restaurant to eat, and in the face of Morpheus orders the servant to open a bottle of his estate Aged wines, happy mood.
Only the three people who just sat were disturbed by some unexpected news-the person of the heretic court requested to enter the mansion of the lord, the purpose...pointed to Morpheus.
"Doubt my identity?"
The Morpheus looked at the servant who relayed the message, raised his eyebrows slightly, then turned to Count Bolton, and got up and apologized: "I'm really sorry for this kind of thing, but I want to understand, am I a stranger Has disturbed the heretical verdict in Medici? I think along the way, the act of killing a vampire and more than a dozen Geffen dogs will also bring any charges?"
Geffen is a dark dog that wanders the graveyard. It is one of the most common creatures in the empire where dark creatures attack humans the most and cause the most casualties.
The words of Morpheus made Count Bolton very comfortable-after all, heresy is not an organization that can be ignored casually. They are rushed to come to the door to do no good to anyone. The first sentence apologizes, This seems very respectful and understands his status, which is much more useful than the grandiose talk of Viscount Harrington.
"Here to judge? This group of guys really have the courage to get in here and let them in. I would like to see who can judge the guests of the Brook family as heretics?"
A very obvious gesture. The count expressed his attitude in his own words. Morpheus nodded, then turned his eyes and smiled slightly at Adeline, who had not spoken much, and got up and turned the dagger back slightly. Heng, then facing the entrance of the living room, waiting for the members of the heresy court to enter.
An aristocrat slightly differentiated his short sword backwards, which is equivalent to expressing hostility towards the people who are about to appear~IndoMTL.com~These are seen by the count, and are also a silent gesture-the so-called hatred of the enemy, the lord is against the ruling There have always been many contradictions. Although there was no fight on the bright side, the secret suppression was cruel than ordinary people could imagine.
The three guys wearing black gray pattern rugs appeared to be very aggressive when they entered the door. They are worthy of being the iron-blooded organization that wipes the **** for the religion every day. Although the three people have different looks, their expressions are definitely the same. Species-the stereotype and the sense of scrutiny that look like a dead man's face at a glance definitely make people feel uncomfortable.
"Something?"
Count Botton’s face became absolutely faster than turning over the book. The smile on the face of Morpheus turned into a squinting squint, and the weight of the words was chilling.
"As ordered by the Inquisition, because Morpheus? Roland is suspected of colluding with dark creatures, he needs to be arrested and investigated."
The head of the adjudication panel read a so-called "trial" expressionlessly.
"I am Morpheus? Roland, what crimes need to be listed on my head?"
Morpheus doesn’t seem to be afraid of this sacred Gabriel empire’s frightened institution. After all, his current identity is the Baron and Grand Knight of the Fording Empire. Diplomatically, nobles from other countries are not allowed to be accused of “heresy”. The reason is needless to say, after all, the Vatican's Holy See is only the Holy See of the Gabriel Empire, not the whole continent.
Looking at the confrontation between Morpheus and the people in the ruling, Adeline as a spectator is more able to feel the confidence and calmness of this young man. What is more commendable is the calmness that the nobles of this age cannot have.
Maybe after tonight, a few attributes on the Maso cards need to change a lot.
Adelin’s expression remains the same, but she is looking forward to what kind of surprise this guy can bring to himself.
