Chapter 419: Friends with Evil
"Hello, Mr. Diller, don't be so polite, just call me Susie. Susie responded with a smile, like a spring breeze.
After saying that, Susie turned her head and shook Firth's arm, it seemed that they should normally be very affectionate.
"Won't you invite Mr. Diller to sit down at home after a long absence?" said Susie, turning to Fez.
"That's definitely the way it is, it's not a good place to catch up. Faith patted Susie's arm lightly.
Thor sat silently opposite and watched the couple's response, it seemed that he had been arranged unconsciously, and he was not afraid.
Because Thor knew very well in his heart that since Faith had recognized himself, if he or they were going to do something about him, it might be that the relevant backhands and arrangements were already arranged. It doesn't really matter whether you're afraid or not, so it's better to go with the flow.
The three people in the room hadn't exchanged a few words, and the auction seemed to have come to an end. A waiter tapped the door panel of the room, and then handed over the magic crystal source that Faith had photographed with red velvet, and then Faith took out a card to settle the bill.
Judging by that delicately textured card, Faith should be a regular at the auction house. And his card was obviously taken out of the space jewelry, it seems that this guy is mixing well in the main city of Odrenza, and countless details skim Thor's eyes one by one.
However, these little things are actually insignificant, there is only one important thing for Thor, keep an eye on the whereabouts of the Demon Pattern Crystal Source.
A few people who looked like family guards stepped forward and took the initiative to take Fez's goods, and they didn't see any trace of these guards outside the room just now, so they should have been guarding the secret place in the aisle. Now that the guards have taken over the goods, Thor naturally can't be too stingy.
"Let's go, go sit with me. Faith and his wife, Susie, got up and shook their chins at Thor.
Thor didn't squirm, and got up and followed the Firths.
Walking out of the main hall of Glory Plaza, a carriage has been waiting for a long time, and the luxurious appearance is not unexpected, and the inside is certainly not bad.
Faith and Saul sat on either side of the carriage door, and only after Mrs. Susie had boarded the carriage did they enter the carriage one after another, and then each chose a seat opposite each other, and Faith and Susie were still seated together.
Thor was mostly silent along the way, maintaining basic etiquette and smiling. Faith and Susie don't hide their affection, but they seem to be afraid of snubbing Thor, and from time to time they will stir up some casual little topics, and Thor will also answer a few words in passing.
The carriage was smooth and steady, and by the time it got off again, it had come to the gate of a spacious manor. Thor raised his head by the faint light, unsurprisingly gorgeous, no less than the manor he had infiltrated before.
Beyond the courtyard garden of the small fountain, the group walked through the hall and corridor, and finally stopped outside a study-like room.
When she arrived, Susie apologized and left the conversation space for the men, and the maid quickly brought fragrant tea into the study.
The room was lit with candles and a faint scent of flowers, and Faith walked over to the window and pulled back the drape-up to reveal the floor-to-ceiling window with a view of the courtyard. Thor crossed his hands in front of Feith's bookcase, looking as if he were visiting someone else's study.
The air between the two men was a little silent for a while, after all, it was still inconclusive whether they were friends or foes, and the two of them were not in a hurry to speak.
"How did you find me?" Finally Thor thought about it and decided to say first, he came here for only one purpose, which was to get the source of the Demon Crystal Crystal. But before getting to the point, it's best to get to the bottom of other trivial topics, so Saul asks directly about what he cares about.
"It was actually an accident. Faith walked from the window to the edge of the desk and sat reflexively, took the fragrant tea and lowered his head to take a sip.
"We should have met at the ball a few years ago, and we were enemies in the situation, but I wasn't the main character in that scene. To be honest, I was shocked to see how evil you looked at that time, and I didn't expect to see you like that on that occasion at all. ”
"Then when you wantonly drank blood and killed people, I quietly left a magical mark on you while you were not looking. ”
"Later, when I saw you fleeing all the way out of the main city, I stopped paying attention, but I vaguely felt that if I insisted on this parting, I might never see you again in this life. Who knew that today at the auction, a bidding made me see you again, and your appearance is always so abrupt. ”
Faith explained it roughly, then took another sip from his cup.
"Magic Mark, why won't this mark dissipate for a few years?" Thor was faintly disgusted and curious about this tracking method.
"It's true that ordinary sigils fade away at any time, but my magical affinity is special, I'm a life affinity or vitality affinity. That sigil is my own means, and only I can see it. To be exact, that's a small part of my life force. ”
"Ordinary people don't use this method lightly, because if you can't draw it, this mark may save me a month or two to live. However, at that time, the evil power in your body was too strong, and the ordinary magic power was not stable at all, so I used some special means. ”
"To be honest, I didn't understand afterwards why I had to drain my life force and leave a mark on you at that time. ”
"Maybe it's because we're from the same frontier, or maybe it's because you and I are the same age. Although there was a gap in status between them at first, seeing that you had a power that I couldn't reach at that time, maybe the young man's mind was competing. ”
Faith spoke silently, his tone seemed a little inexplicably nostalgic, and he didn't know if he remembered the old events of Graycurtain Town.
"And since I have your magic mark on me, did you find me this time when I arrived in the main city of Odrenza?" Thor asked his second question.
"How is that possible, the imprint is only one aspect, I want to see you and open your own magical vision. Anywhere you're in the city or a little farther away, I can see you through the tracking mark, but you're too far away. ”
"After that prom, you gradually ran out of my magical vision and couldn't see it. Later, when I heard that you had taken root on the northern border, I would occasionally look in that direction, but unfortunately I could not see anything from the distance. ”
"Later, I gradually forgot that it was okay for anyone to open their magic vision all day long, which was very draining. Until I heard the news that you were surrounded and killed by the Dark Council, I sighed for a long time, and I couldn't think of today...... You're not dead!"
"Even if you wrap yourself up like a black-robed monster, you're as bright as a light in my eyes. ”
"I've been paying attention to you since I saw you last time I saw you at the ball, and at first it was for those reasons, you and I are from the same place, and the same age makes me a little competitive. But later, as I got older, some of my mentality changed. ”
At this point, Faith was abruptly interrupted by Saul.
"You're disgusting!" said Thor.
"You...... What do you mean?" Faith looked up in disbelief, and the two of them were in a subtle position. Even if he doesn't want to treat Thor as an enemy, in fact, Thor himself can take the initiative to stand on the opposite side, which is not the scenario that Fezes wants.
"It's a good thing you just left a magical mark with your life force, not something else. Thor said with a look of disgust.
"What else?" said Firth, looking puzzled.
"You know, a man's life force sometimes means something else. Thor had a grimace on his face.
Feith's eyes flashed.
"Poof~~Oh! God, damn it, I can't believe you're such a filthy person!" Faith burst out laughing, stretched out his finger and pointed at Thor fiercely, and then picked up the cup with a relieved face, it turned out that Thor was just joking.
This kind of vulgar joke that resembles a country style, in the territory Thor and Staunt almost talk to each other all day long. Faith obviously belongs to the kind of usual social interactions, so strict and hypocritical that his face is torn, and he seems to have little resistance to this straightforward vulgarity.
"You don't mean what you say, and if you're not filthy, how will you know what I'm talking about?" Thor said casually.
"Poof~haha...... Hahahaha!" Faith squirted a mouthful of tea all over the floor, then slapped the table, and the whole person collapsed on the table like a cramp and shaky. Thor saw that his cheeks twitched, this guy's poor resistance ...... It's just too bad.
Wait until Faith stopped laughing and looked up at the table.
"To tell you the truth, you're a pretty good lady. Thor suddenly bowed his head to Faith again.
"Poof~God! I can't do it!" Firth clutched his abdomen, as if ready to finish the laugh of his life.
What the hell am I ......
"Damn it, you're smirking! I'm saying that your lady is beautiful, gentle, and temperamental, and I'm just a polite, casual compliment, okay?"
Thor didn't explain, but when Faith was done, he couldn't do it at all, writhing and twitching on the table, shaking enough before he raised his head.
"Damn, if you dare to covet my wife, I'll kill you!" Firth struggled to piece together a vicious expression.
"Idiot, my big nest of shiitake mushrooms is running around, who is so rare with your leftovers?"
"What's a big nest of shiitake mushrooms, why are you such a big lord still farming?"
“......”
Forget it, neither of them is on the same spiritual level.
After this seemingly meaningless nonsense, the invisible but hard alienation between the two finally disappeared, and Thor found some familiar rhythm of conversation, and then it was almost time to get down to business.
"Don't be paralyzed, hurry up and get someone to prepare lunch, don't you have a good way of hospitality?" Thor curled his finger and tapped on the table.
"Damn it, you're really still the same poor and sour as you were back then, I really can't figure out how you came to be a big lord in the past few years? Faith quickly adapted to Saul's style and began calling in the maid to prepare lunch.
