I have to say that almost all the people in the Brandt family are very shrewd.

Let's put it this way! If they lived in England and studied at Hogwarts, they would have been Slytherin for generations, without exception.

And because of this, they will be arrogant and somewhat annoying at the same time, but they still live a very nourishing life.

Yes, no matter what you do, the word "degree" can often explain a lot. If you can grasp the scale of advance and retreat well, plus some cleverness, then many things will have room for change.

Just like now, although Maxim doesn't like the Brandt family, he even has more or less plans to take advantage of this opportunity to see each other's jokes. But when a well-behaved girl greets her earnestly, the teasing and strength that have been in her heart in advance are really difficult to say.

And this is obviously exactly the effect that the Brandt family wants.

Maxim...... Madam? I don't know if Madame will be able to accept my request just now? ”

The girl was not very old, probably about the same age as Charlotte, and according to her initial self-introduction, it seemed that she had just graduated from Durmstrang two years ago.

And because she is younger in terms of appearance, figure, and even personality, on the surface, she is actually smaller than Charlotte.

Although...... Whether her timid and hesitant appearance was pretended or not is unknown for the time being.

By the way, calculating the time, when Maca temporarily enrolled in Durmstrang, it is unknown whether she had such a few encounters with her.

"Miss Brandt, of course there is nothing wrong with your family asking the alliance to help defend it, but this is certainly not something that I can decide with one mouth alone. As you know, the Alliance's combat power is recruited from all sides, and this matter must be discussed and decided at a meeting......"

Sitting face to face with her, because the height difference between the two was too large, Maxim had to bow his head slightly before he could look at her face and speak. However, because the other party rarely looks up and looks at Maxim, to some extent, there doesn't seem to be much of a problem.

It is...... This feeling, on the contrary, made Maxim feel that he was talking to a child.

"As for the Blois side," Maxim paused, then continued, "to be honest with you! I think it will be more difficult to ask them for help. Cause...... You should know. ”

Yes, almost a little of a matter of course, the Brandt family, like Maxim, is eyeing the powerful help of the Blois family. If we can get the help of the Blois family, not to mention resist the enemy's invasion, at least we will have more time to prepare for the migration, right?

However, almost the entire upper class of the European wizarding community knows that the Brandt family and the Blois family have never been on good terms, and they belong to the kind of relationship that will stumble on each other. Now, it is unlikely that the former will seek assistance from the latter.

"yes, I understand." The Miss Brandt in front of her shook her hands on her thighs a little uneasily, lowered her head slightly, and said, "So, didn't you come to Madame to ask for matchmaking?" ”

"But—"

The girl's soft tone and timid appearance really made Maxim unable to say anything serious. Seeing the girl say this, she could only shake her head and say:

"All I can say is that I can help you to ask, and it must be after Mr. Blois has returned from England. So until then, we have to wait. ”

"But we can't afford to wait!"

Perhaps because of the urgency of the question, or simply to get Madame Maxim to agree to help her hand in the match, she at last raised her head sharply and looked straight at this side.

"Madame, you know, Denmark will not be able to withstand this catastrophe. Perhaps, they will not last long, and the war will spread straight to the north of our Germany. "Actually, I was going to go to Mr. McLean, but unfortunately we couldn't find him." So the next best thing to do is to turn to the Blois family for help. ”

Hearing the girl say this, Maxim wanted to just talk about something else, and tear the question away for the time being. But who knew that at this moment, there were suddenly a few knocks on the door of this side hall.

"Wait a minute."

Maxim nodded at the girl, then stood up and walked towards the door—she had to open the door herself, having warned the others not to come near beforehand.

However, the visitor did not seem to have any interest in waiting outside the door. Not long after knocking on the door, before Maxim could walk over, the other party directly pushed the door open by himself.

"Hello, ma'am."

To Maxim's surprise, it was Willy Blois who appeared at the door, and even the old butler, who had just declined the invitation, came with him.

"Uh, good morning...... Miss Blois, why are you here? ”

"Didn't Madame ask my housekeeper to come and ask for it?" Willy said calmly, "I just heard that the Danish side was also attacked by Helpo?" ”

To be honest, the old butler and Willy were able to come here, and Maxim was naturally very welcome. It's just that, compared to the old butler, this young lady of the Blois family is actually more difficult for her to deal with.

After all, Willie doesn't talk much on weekdays, and she is always tinkering with her flowers and plants, and rarely takes the initiative to pay attention to others. Yes, it's the kind of person who behaves strangely, and at first glance you know who is not easy to communicate with.

But Maxim didn't know that compared to the cold girl who used to be a school at Hogwarts, Willy was much better now!

"Anyway...... Miss Blois, please come in and take a seat! Mr. Butler too. She thought about it, but first stretched out her hand and said, "It just so happens that the young lady of the Brandt family is also here, no matter what happens, we can sit down and talk." ”

"Okay."

Willy nodded, and then, led by Maxim, went to the sofa by the window and sat down without paying much attention.

"Mr. Butler, please take a seat too!"

Maxim said this again, but saw that the old butler only shook his head, and stood still on the side of the sofa where Willy was sitting as usual.

Seeing this, Maxim could only go with him. Seeing Willy sitting on the sofa, she seemed to look with a little interest at Miss Brandt, who was not far away, and then sat down with her in the previous seat.

"That'...... Let's continue with the topic we just had! ”
