Chapter 59: Pit Daddy (Sorry, the Internet is Broken)
"Lord Viscount, don't work far away, I'm sorry!"
Three personable young nobles politely greeted Eden who was sent to the gate. Bell took his leave.
Eden. Bell watched the three carriages leave one after another with a smile on his face, the smile on his face gradually converged, and he turned his head to ask the guard next to him, "The eldest lady hasn't come back yet?" ”
"Back to my lordship, the eldest lady has already returned." The guards did not dare to hide it and reported it truthfully.
"How can this be ......?"
Eden. Bell was furious, looked at the guards next to him, and finally managed to hold back the exit into 'dirty', and entered the house with a huff, walking towards the courtyard where Hathaway lived.
Chirping~
Pushing open the courtyard door, I saw three little maids talking in the courtyard in a low voice, and when I saw him come in, one by one, like frightened rabbits, panicked and scattered, ran two steps into the house, and felt that something was wrong, hesitantly returned to him, bowed his head and saluted: "Lord Viscount." ”
"Do you know that I am Lord Viscount?"
Eden. Bell glared at the three little maids fiercely, and felt that it was not interesting, "What are you running?" Can I eat people? ”
"My lord, we want to report to Miss...... Later, I remembered that the young lady was not in the house. Linna's reaction was quicker, but she immediately found a reason.
"Huh? Where are you not in the house? "Eden. Bell was a little weird.
"In the lab over there." Lena went with her fingers.
Eden. Bell glanced in the direction of her finger, his brow furrowed slightly...... A little dwarf girl glanced through a nearby door, then quickly retracted her head, ignoring him as the head of the house.
"Humph!"
He snorted, then reached the door of the room where Hathaway was used as a laboratory, and reached out and pushed ...... The three little maids all opened their mouths, trying to stop him, but thinking of his identity, they still closed their mouths, but they all took a step back in unison, and in the next room, Alia. Forgu poked his head out again, gloating.
The door was not bolted, so it was opened...... In Eden. Bell thought about how deep the knowledge of potions a magic apprentice could have, and he didn't think that an alchemist's laboratory could not be entered, so he stepped into it while pushing the door unsuspectingly.
At the same time as the door opened, a white mist rushed to his face, although he held his breath in time, but still a part of the mist entered the respiratory tract, and the strong smell violently stimulated the viscount's respiratory organs, he couldn't help coughing, so more mist poured into the respiratory tract...... So, the Viscount was tragic, coughing and roaring together, snot and tears flying together:
"Hathaway! What the hell are you messing with!! "Eden. Bell suddenly disappeared from the door, and only stopped after retreating more than ten meters away.
"Father, you should knock on the door first. Alchemy laboratories are not allowed to trespass, you should know this. ”
Hathaway's indifferent voice came from the door, "You can come in." ”
The fog at the door gradually cleared, Eden. Bell pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the dirt from his face, gritted his teeth, and strode inside, slamming the door shut.
Bang!
There was a loud sound from the door, and the room shook, and the three little maids looked at each other, and then they all turned around and ran back to the house as fast as they could.
Alia. Vergu chuckled and quickly retracted his head.
"You did it on purpose?" Eden. Bell's face was gloomy, and his eyes wandered around the room.
Although he tried his best to pretend to be a loving father, what happened just now was too embarrassing, and he felt that he had not jumped like thunder, which was already a rare good cultivation.
The room was neatly tied, there were different colors of potions in several utensils on the test bench, there was a pungent smell in the room, and there were some discarded medicine residues in the garbage can.
Hathaway wanted to laugh, she didn't know what it was, she loved seeing Eden. Bell's embarrassed appearance, at least in this case, seemed more real than it was now...... Even when you are angry, it is like wearing a mask. However, the potion just now was the product of her whim, and it really wasn't intended to target Eden. Bell's, before that, Alia. Fugu also fell for the trick, presumably now the dwarf girl's heart must be very balanced, and finally have a 'partner' who shares weal and woe.
"It's not."
See Eden. Bell's face became more and more ugly, and Hathaway shook his head: "This potion is a kind of early warning potion, as long as you don't push the door open, it's fine, you should knock on the door first." ”
Eden. Bell paused, his face was slightly pale, and said, "Why don't you go to meet guests?" ”
"Father, is this our home?" Hathaway asked.
"Of course." Eden. Bell's face became serious, "Did someone say anything in front of you?" ”
"What do you mean?"
Hathaway smiled, "Father, are they here to visit you, or are they here to visit me?" ”
"Of course I'm here to visit you." Eden. Bell looked at Hathaway with some confusion, not knowing what she wanted to say.
"Since it's my guest,"
Hathaway paused and looked directly at Eden. Bell looked at him and said, "Then don't I even have the right to choose not to see the guests in my own home?" ”
"You, of course."
Eden. Bell sighed in his heart and said, "These three are good, and besides, you are a nobleman, you must follow the etiquette of the nobles, and you should at least meet once." ”
"Why do you want me to follow aristocratic etiquette? They are also aristocrats, why can't they follow aristocratic etiquette and leave with interest? Hathaway said lightly.
"That's it, if there is such a thing in the future, it is better to meet."
Eden. Bell Zhilu said, I am afraid that this sentence is also in vain, and his eyes glanced at the bottles containing the potions on the test bench: "Those are the potions you refined?" ”
"Yes."
"What kind of potion?"
"There are therapeutic agents, there are also coagulation agents and antidotes." Hathaway replied.
"These are all refined by you?!"
Eden. Bell was amazed if all these potions were made by Hathaway...... Well, if that's the case, then Hathaway has the strength to live without relying on her family.
"It's okay, it's just a matter of practice." Hathaway was slightly smug.
These potions were all refined by her after repeated practice in the Illusion Demon Palace, although they were not successful every time, but the failure rate was controlled below 2%, which could detonate the eyes of a place if it was passed out.
Eden. Bell's expression was a little complicated, and he found that he was becoming more and more confused about this daughter, and he had a strange feeling. Although he had been secretly following Hathaway's condition all these years, he now realized that he did not know enough.
"Tomorrow night, there is a banquet specially held for you, and clothes will be brought to you, and you must attend this time." Eden. After Bell finished speaking, he left in a hurry.
