Ciudad Telalo, Fort Gradi.
Sunlight shines through the stained glass windows in the beautifully decorated rooms, the deep sky-blue walls are dotted with bright dappled golden colors, the two rows of tall and erected bookshelves are neatly arranged with old scrolls, and the green wind orchids and plants on the corners suddenly shake as if to show off their graceful bodies.
On a gray-brown quaint desk, paper papers are messily placed on it, and a quill pen is on the side, and there are still black ink beads on the wet nib, which can be seen that it is still being used by people not long ago.
At this moment, there was a knock on the porter of the room, and a low and respectful man's voice suddenly came.
"Your Excellency, Lord Buggins is here."
"Invite him in."
In the room, a magnetic voice responded.
The door opened quietly, and a man shrouded in a gray cloak walked in.
"Lord Viscount, I'm here."
Bukins lowered his head and looked darkly at a tall man with his back to him at the desk in the distance.
"Do you already know what Algernon reported to me?"
Viscount Farrant didn't reply.
"Yes." Bukins whispered.
"An alien mysterious apothecary, an alien high-ranking swordsman...... I didn't expect Algernon to surprise me at such a time. ”
Viscount Farrant shook his head lightly and sighed.
"A troublesome surprise." Bukins Road.
"Samur is leading them to follow my orders, and it seems that we need to entertain these guests from afar." Viscount Farrant said.
"What do you command, Lord Viscount?" Bukins Road.
"I need you to keep an eye on that superior swordsman." Viscount Farrant said.
"Isn't there a need for temptation?" Bukins said cautiously.
"No, we just need to keep watching." Viscount Farrant said. "Time will tell us an answer."
"Lord Viscount, is this good?" Bukins frowned worriedly.
"So you're going to have to work harder this time."
Farrant turned around and looked at him with a smile on his weather-beaten handsome middle-aged face.
"Follow your orders."
In this regard, Bukins could only reluctantly respond.
When Bukins left, Farrant slowly sat down in the chair in front of his desk, he picked up the quill pen that stood aside, and looked at the paper on the table, and the signature of the text was only a logo pattern.
Only he knew that this was a pattern representing the "Ancestors' Consensus".
"Is it finally going to start?"
He looked at the content on the text and muttered to himself after a long time.
……
If everything goes on too normally and plainly, then it will inevitably make people think deeply.
When Charan and his party were greeted at Fort Gradidi by the subordinates sent by Viscount Farrant, they were immediately received by Viscount Frank with great pomp, and for several weeks, it seemed that everything was in order, as a matter of course, and it was uncomfortably normal.
No one doubts their identity, no one tempts them, and no one even stops them from acting...... Xia Lan always felt a little unbelievable in her eyes.
Perhaps the only thing that made him feel normal was someone who had been secretly watching them.
"We've got to leave."
One evening, in a house specially arranged by Viscount Farrant, the fire was burning and warmly illuminating several figures on the sofa.
"Why? Winnie didn't want to leave. ”
The petite figure curled up in the corner of the sofa immediately objected when he heard someone's words.
These days, Winnie, who is a maid on the surface, has followed Pandelia and taken the opportunity to learn a lot of knowledge from many senior pharmacists, and the actual work is basically done by her secretly, so that she has accumulated a lot of alchemy experience, sufficient material resources and the guidance of senior pharmacists, she has self-confidence, if she continues to stay, she can be completely promoted to senior pharmacist in less than a year.
Now that hateful man actually said that he was leaving, how could this make her give up.
"What's going on?"
Even in the room, Pandelia did not take off her hood, she looked at the solemn man opposite, and her heart couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Don't you realize that from the time we met Viscount Farrant, everything seemed too normal and calm?"
Xia Lan stared at the fire that was beating and burning in the fireplace and said, "And...... The Earl of Heather's offensive against Diorda is gradually declining, and it may not be long before they withdraw their troops before winter comes, and the "Knights of the White Frost" may return. ”
"Are you worried that this qiē is Viscount Farrante's deliberate paralysis of us?" Pandelia mused.
"Yes, although I don't know exactly what Viscount Farrant's purpose is, maybe we may know the answer when the 'White Frost Knight' returns, but it will be too late." Xia Lan said lightly.
"Hey, hey, hey! Are you listening to me? ”
Winnie, who was on the side, saw that the two ignored her, and her little face suddenly couldn't help but cry.
"Shut up!"
Xia Lan squinted at Winnie with cold eyes.
"You-"
Winnie swallowed the words when she saw the deep and cold eyes of the other party, and turned her head away with a disgruntled snort.
"When are we leaving?"
Pandelia tugged at the brim of her hood and reached over the hot tea brewed on the table and took a sip.
"Before the Return of the Frost Knight." Xia Lan withdrew her gaze from the fireplace and looked at the other party.
"That is, we have at least one more month to stay?" Pandelia carefully calculated the days and then said.
"Yes, I still need to investigate and understand some things during this time." Charland Road.
"What's the matter?" Pandelia asked immediately.
"A little thing."
After Xia Lan finished speaking, she didn't need to explain, stood up and started walking in the direction of the bedroom porch.
Looking at the man's disappearing back, Pandelia sighed lightly in her heart, no matter when, this man always dominates a strong one, and nothing will let them participate in it, even if they have doubts, but in the end they can only let it go.
And Winnie, who was still sulking on the side, is probably the best example.
"Winnie, are you still angry?"
Pandelia looked at Winnie, who was holding a square pillow in the corner of the sofa and holding her head down.
"Yes, because Winnie really doesn't want to leave here for a while." Winnie poked out her little face and said aggrievedly: "But every time he doesn't care about my thoughts, Winnie is really sad......"
"I thought Winnie was used to his style." Pandelia smiled.
"Of course not! It's just that it's hard for me to go against his decision. Winnie said with a troubled look.
"But, sooner or later, Winnie will leave him." Pandelia said.
"I know."
Winnie hugged the square pillow in her arms and stared blankly at the flames in the fireplace.
"I have a hunch that one day he will abandon me."
"If Winnie has nowhere to go someday, maybe you can come to me." Pandelia saw that the other party inadvertently revealed her true emotions, and her words couldn't help but be a little relaxed.
"But, Pandelia, don't you have nowhere to go now?"
Winnie looked at her, and an incomprehensible smile suddenly bloomed on her pretty face. (To be continued.) )
