"Father......" Ashley greeted Siel cautiously.

In Ashley's room, it was just herself and her father. Ashley understood the impact of her actions today, but she did not apologize to Siel, she was only a little afraid of her father's wrath.

Siel's eagle-like eyes swept toward Ashley. At the moment of eye contact with Siel, Ashley carefully lowered her head.

"The boy...... How's Butos doing?" said Ashley, whispering tentatively.

"What do you say, his name is Butos?" a flash of coldness flashed in Siel's eyes, as if the name symbolized something to him.

"Ah...... Yes, father," Ashley suddenly felt a little worried when she heard Ciel's tone: "It should be this name......"

"You don't love him, Ashley. ”

Ashley's sudden words left Ashley a little overwhelmed, and Ciel continued, "I know what you are trying to do today. However, I want to tell you, you'd better not have anything to do with the people of the Butos family!"

"Why?" Ashley's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"There's something hidden in it, and you don't need to know it. Siel got up and walked out of the room, not even looking back.

Ashley was worried about what her father would do to Butos, after all, it was through her own fault that Butos suffered these undeserved tortures.

The moonlight is like a tide, and the door is like a shackle.

Ashley couldn't even step out of her room, just as Butos couldn't break free of the iron bar......

The carriage escorting Butos was not visible to Ashley, she could not even hear Butos' call.

Ashley's heart was in turmoil, she didn't know if it was because she owed Butos something in her heart, or if she really liked him...... Ashley had seen many, many teenagers, but she still didn't know what a real heart was, but she was sure that she still cared about Butos's safety.

Ashley hesitated, Butos struggled.

But Butos was more comfortable than Ashley, and he knew very well that he had fallen in love with this young and beautiful girl who was like an elf. Thinking of Ashley, Butos couldn't help but think of Ashley's father, the cruel duke, the demonic father. Although Siel did not have much contact with Butos, Butos could sense the hostility and threat from Ciel from the depths of his soul.

"I thought you knew why. The Ringwraith awoke, and still communicated with Butos in the voice of old Butos.

"Well, I don't know anything, old Butos. Now I'm going to be caught with some archmage again, it's all terrible!"

"Archmage...... I think it's the opposite, that old human, despite his superior perception and intelligence, has absolutely no insight into my existence, and he is not qualified enough...... Hey, hey, hey......"

"That's good......" Butos was a little lost: "As long as I can still hear your voice......

"My dear little Butos, do you know why you are so incompatible with him?"

"Maybe it's because of her daughter. Butos guessed.

"That's only one aspect, only a small one...... "The Butos family exists as a threat to the interests of the Siell family......"

Before the Ringwraith could finish speaking, Butos had already been pulled out of the carriage, and when Butos saw the magnificent city of Tenosdia in front of him, the shock that suddenly appeared in his heart was beyond words.

The existence of the main city of Tenostia like a dragon, the brilliance of the holy gold, the pure white city walls, and the rows of giant pillars carved with totems are all the supreme and noble existences in the continent.

Butos was still admiring, but the soldiers who escorted him would never allow him to stay where he was.

Siel said in a cold voice: "The lowly Butos family ......"

Lowly. Butos never considered himself or the elder Butos to be inferior, and in Butos's view, everything Siel did stemmed from the heart of a duke who considered himself superior.

Little by little, Butos was escorted towards the northwest side of the main city.

The voice of the Ringwraith sounded in Butos's heart again: "Your mission is not despicable, little Butos ......"

Butos communicated with the Ring Spirit inwardly: "I know that what I am doing is to resurrect you, my beloved grandfather. I don't think it's the slightest bit of a lowness. ”

"I don't know exactly where the Spirit of Fire and the Gargoyle Eye are in Tenosdia. Little Butos, it's up to you to find it. ”

Butos carefully observed his surroundings, trying to take everything here to heart.

Soon, Butos was escorted to the residence of the "Imperial Mage" Eramus.

It was a mysterious and magical palace, but it was also a little mundane to Butos's surprise.

Butos had expected that Eramus's abode would be like some of the secret places that the elder Butos had told him, either suspended in the air or guarded by giant beasts...... The palace sits on the ground and is nothing remarkable except for two huge knightly sculptures standing on the left and right.

Butos followed Siel into the palace, and the moment he stepped into the palace, Butos felt like it had a boundary, and it seemed like there was no boundary......

The palace was empty, and a white-bearded elder with a staff in his hand was pacing slowly.

"Probably...... He's Eramus......" Butos thought to himself, but his attention was drawn to the white raven on the white-bearded elder's shoulder.

"Venerable Erasmus, Duke Ciel salutes you. Siel saluted respectfully to the white-bearded elder.

Eramus turned, but his gaze, which had accumulated countless wisdom, did not linger on Siel, but fell on Butos.

Butos seemed to be fascinated by the crow, he had never seen such a beautiful crow.

However, when the crow met Butos's gaze, the horror seemed to spread to its feathers in an instant.

The white crow fluttered its wings in a hurry, trying to flee in some unknown direction.

"Oh, calm down, my old friend. Eramus soothed the white-feathered raven.

The jewel on the staff shone with a faint blue light, and the white-feathered crow gradually calmed down under the light, but its fear of Butos was still undiminished.

Eramus gently leaned his arm forward, and the white-feathered crow carefully walked over to the back of Eramus' hand.

Eramus slowly approached Butos with a crow: "Old friend, tell me everything you foresee. ”

Butos suddenly tensed, a little worried that Eramus and his crow would see through his heart.

At this time, the ring spirit was quietly hidden, and Butos seemed to be unable to feel the presence of the ring spirit for the time being.

The white-feathered crow's fear faded.

Eramus's white brow furrowed slightly, like a snowy peak.

Eramus asks Siel: "Where is he from?"

Siel replied cautiously, "Wiser, I suspect that he is a demon, so I brought him here. ”

"He has a strange aura, but he's not a demon. Siel, what made you make this judgment?" Iramos's words couldn't help but make Butos breathe a sigh of relief.

Siel seems disappointed that Butos is not a demon, but he still hopes that Erasmus will do something to Butos. After all, he no longer wanted his noble daughter to have anything to do with this Butos family.

Siel took out the "Tears of the Shark" and handed it to Eramus.

Butos's heart tensed up again. Although Butos knew that this was a gift from the Naga clan left by the elder Butos, it must be said that all the strange events that happened during Butos's journey seemed to be more or less related to this gem.

Eramus took the "Tears of the Shark" and began to look solemn on his old face as he examined the jewel.

Eramus seemed to be eyed by the tiny purple imprint on the gem.

Sweat oozed from Butos's forehead.

Suddenly, Erasmus's sharp gaze shifted from the imprint on the "Tears of the Shark" to Butos.
