Start with the Readers Chapter 416: Amon enters the game
When Mrs. Carly was sizing up the members of the maid team and worrying about her daughter, Xio stepped forward and asked the leading witch, "Nightingale, where is Abner now?"
The head maid named "Nightingale" is actually the former "Desperate Nightingale" Pannadia. After being fished out of the "River of Eternal Darkness" by Abner through a ceremony, part of her soul has been Existing in the form of a "sealed item", even the current image is an illusion, and cannot leave the scope of the Viscount's mansion, so it was arranged by Abner to manage the witch maid group.
Speaking of which, the new names that Abner gave these former witches of the "Witch Sect" are rather strange, such as "Nightingale", "Scroll", "Lightning"... In short, they are more like nicknames than names. .
"Miss Hugh, the master has gone out to receive the first batch of guests who visited Beldan, and I'm afraid he won't be back until the afternoon." "Nightingale" responded respectfully.
"Is that so... what about Forsi?" Xio asked again.
"Miss Wall's breakfast hasn't been touched yet." "Nightingale" replied tactfully.
In other words, you haven't woken up yet? Xio patted his forehead helplessly before instructing "Nightingale": "Send someone to wake Forsi up, and send these luggage to the room that was packed earlier."
"Yes, Miss Hugh." After "Nightingale" answered, she naturally took the suitcase that Luo Diercha had been dragging, and smiled at the boy.
Facing the witch's smile, Luo's cheeks turned red all of a sudden, and while saying "I'll do it" repeatedly, he wanted to get the box back.
But how can his reaction compare with that of a former "Desperate Witch"? I saw that "Nightingale" easily lifted the box that Luo could only drag with both hands with one hand, and even had time to raise the other hand to brush her hair, so that her small and delicate ears could be exposed.
Seeing her younger brother's face flushed redder because of shyness or shame, Xio had no choice but to send away the group of maids who came out to greet her, and took her mother and younger brother to the restaurant.
Seeing her daughter docile those maids who were obviously not simple people with the attitude of a hostess, Mrs. Carly recovered from the surprise, and while lamenting Xio's growth, she also let go. Some of them were worried, but they still couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Those are all Viscount Blaine's maids? Are they too many..."
If they are normal maids, then considering the size of this mansion, they are not too many... But those just now were all too beautiful, obviously "abnormal".
How much is this? You must know that Abner assigned the "Witch Sect" to the "Yellow Saint", "Red Saint", "Blue Saint", "Grey Saint", and even "Black Saint" and "White Saint". The witches under the command of "Holy Maiden" wiped out all the witches, even if a large part of them were directly killed because they had done too much evil, and a few of them slipped through the net, but there are still dozens of them left, and they are all here in the end... ...Well, in Abner's words, it means accepting "brainwashing" and "reform through labor".
And what you saw just now were only a dozen people staying in the mansion, because Beldan Studios opened for the first time, and the territory is currently short of talents, so most of the witches in the maid team were sent out today to welcome guests. After all, witches Each of them has received a good etiquette education, and their abilities are not bad, so they are perfect emergency candidates.
It can be said that if there is a war in the future, the nearly 100 maids in the Viscount's mansion alone will be enough to cause headaches for the Feysac military.
After complaining a lot in my heart, I stopped thinking and replied: "They are all just ordinary maids."
Madam Carly didn't believe it, but she didn't ask any more. After all, she didn't have the position to take care of the affairs of Viscount Bryan's family, so she asked instead: "The Forsi you mentioned just now is the one you often write in your letters. The good friend you mentioned, the famous writer Miss Fors Wall?"
"Yes." Xio nodded while pushing open the restaurant door.
"She...she also lives in Viscount Bryan's mansion?" Mrs. Carly asked hesitantly.
"Yes, she is not only my friend, but also Abner's good friend." Xio replied as a matter of course.
Speaking, she naturally led her mother and younger brother to their seats, and ordered the housekeeper to start serving the dishes.
Hearing this, Mrs. Carly sighed and became worried again.
…
On the other hand, after the first batch of guests saw the scene in his "dream" being moved into reality, he also sensed the accumulation progress of completing his "wish". It is estimated that tomorrow, that is, the number of tourists on Sunday will reach After the peak, the "miracle" of moving the "floating city" should be realized.
When he returned to the mansion in a good mood, lunch was over, and Xio's mother and younger brother also went back to their room to catch up on sleep.
"How is it? Mrs. Carly and Luo are still used to my place?" Abner asked with a smile.
"What's wrong with you? My family used to be a Viscount..." Xio replied, "But I can't let Luo just live like this. It's best to find something for him to do."
She was afraid that her younger brother would be dazzled by the witches. After all, he was not Abner, and without much willpower, he would inevitably be "charmed"... even if those witches did not use extraordinary abilities.
"Luo's dream is to become a lawyer, right? Then let him go to the Judiciary Bureau for an internship first, and when the future is stable, he can go to the school for the bar preparatory exam." Abner said with a smile, "I will let the dragon Zell took care of him."
"Okay." Xio nodded.
At this moment, Abner suddenly narrowed his eyes, as if he had received some news, then looked at Xio again, smiled and said:
"I will help you get a chance to kill Viscount Stratford in a 'reasonable' way...
"Are you going to execute him yourself? Just tonight!"
…
In a warehouse with a lot of goods in the dock area.
Snowman sat on the dirty wooden box, with his hands cut behind his back, and thin and tough spider threads were wrapped around his body.
It was as if she had been encased in a transparent cocoon, and she couldn't even make a sound.
"It's not a bad thing for you." Triss stood in front of Sherman, holding a ball of black flames in her hand, "At least you can be sure whether he really loves you or is cheating You."
Snowman was angry and frightened, and tried her best to express the meaning of begging with a whining voice, but Triss was not moved at all by this, she turned her palm holding the black flame, and pressed it on Xueman's stomach .
The flame seemed to be spiritual, first it spread out like flowing water, and then penetrated the skin and flesh and blood as if it had no form, trying to get inside.
Triss's smooth black hair fluttered against the laws of nature, and was pulled by invisible hands, extending around, so that the surrounding air was stained with an inexplicable smell.
Those hairs became thicker indistinctly, and the roots were scattered from each other.
From the bottom of them, deep rays of light emerged, carrying curses and words, flowing forward quickly, blending into the pitch-black flames, entering Xueman's stomach, and quickly disappearing.
Snowman's face twitched uncontrollably, but there was no pain. It seemed that this was just a purely instinctive reaction.
She calmed down quickly, and saw Triss's body wearing a dark black dress in front of her faded little by little, gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared.
Xueman's pupils dilated and struggled again, but she couldn't get rid of the restraint no matter what.
She tried her best ~IndoMTL.com~ again and again, like a flood in a silent warehouse rising centimeter by centimeter.
At the same time, on the roof of the warehouse, under the blush and the sky full of stars, a girl with an umbrella in her hand, a single lens in her right eye, and beautiful long golden hair is standing firmly on the eaves, as if It was looking at every move in the warehouse through the bricks and tiles.
"Opportunity? Or trap?"
The girl raised the corners of her mouth, and then looked at the figure running towards the warehouse from outside the factory area at an extremely fast speed.
"The witch's internal strife? That's not right... In addition to a witch hiding beside the Viscount Stratford, he also has a 'manipulator' in his heart...
"Huh? The manipulator is not a living person, but a 'secret puppet'... Such a concealed method, even ordinary angels may not be able to see it!
"Let me guess, who will control this 'Secret Puppet'?"
