As the horse-drawn carriage travels through the streets of Beit City, the financial and political center of the north is already coming alive in the early afternoon, with cafes and dessert shops floating out of the streets to indicate that the people here are enjoying a comfortable afternoon.

Vidnina lifted the car window, looking at all kinds of people on the street a little greedily, she knew that she might not come to this beautiful city where she grew up for a long, long time in the future, which suddenly made her a little sad, so she closed the car window, rubbed Bai Yi's side again, and as if she suddenly remembered something, she asked Bai Yi: "Mentor, what should I call you in the future?" ”

This question was a little strange, Bai Yi tilted his head, and asked rhetorically, "Why do you ask that?" ”

"Since I've been with you ever since, I think maybe I should change my name to something more intimate, right?" Vidnina said, her mother is gone, and her father is gone, not to mention her brothers, she actually felt a terrible sense of loneliness for a while, and wanted to find a trace of psychological comfort in Bai Yi.

"Well... I want to see it..."Bai Yi probably guessed her thoughts, so he pondered.

Father? This is definitely not good, he does not have the corresponding guardianship, and he cannot rob other people's daughters; Father-in-law? This title seems a bit too old-fashioned and formal? Unkind... Godfather? Forget it... This title always makes people associate with some abnormal relationship between men and women.

"Otherwise, let's call the godfather." Bai Yi finally chose a name that sounded normal, although this name with a bit of religious flavor is often linked to the mafia, but isn't he Bai Yi now the underworld force in the eyes of the world?

"Okay, Godfather!" Widnina's face finally showed a little smile, she probably wanted to call Bai Yi like this, right? The title of godfather is not as religious as it is on the earth, and it is also a relatively common title among elders and younger generations.

But there were still people in the void who complained: "Why are all the titles you think of related to your father?" Can't it be an uncle, an uncle, a master or something? ”

This fang used an anonymous speech, I don't know who said it, but Bai Yi couldn't find a good reason to refute it for a while, in order to avoid embarrassment, he could only bluntly divert the topic and said: "So, everyone, let's summarize this action now!" Well, without much effort, we have indirectly controlled a duke with real power, and the material wealth we can get from him will be a solid foundation for our next series of operations, and I believe that our extrication activities will get better and more successful! ”

"My student, what are you nervous about? How can this be said incoherently? The magician said strangely.

"Isn't the biggest gain to pick up another beautiful and cute schoolgirl?" The paladin said sourly beside him, "It's really damnable, it's just a piece of armor!" Why are these cute girls always attracted to you? ”

"Of course, this is because I am sunny, gentle and considerate, low-key, calm and connotative." Bai Yi replied unashamedly.

"Stinky and shameless!"

"The skin is as good as the city wall!"

"You can all take the treasure with your face!"

A series of complaints suddenly sounded in the void.

"Okay, okay, don't always bully my student, he's under a lot of pressure, he just likes to show himself." The magician hurriedly defended his precious student, then brought the topic back to the main path, and continued: "In short, this harvest is still good, and your choice of several questions is also in line with my position, but in the end, there are still a little problems, which may bring you some trouble later. ”

Bai also knew that his teacher was referring to his choice to let the Duchess go.

In fact, if he really chooses with ruthless and absolutely rational thinking, he will at least capture the Duchess, and then he can consider imprisonment, control, or even torture to extract confessions and the like. This woman has a lot of problems, and it is faintly related to the Fallen God Cult of her old acquaintances, especially her methods of hiding her strength, which are very similar to those people's methods.

According to the speculation of fighting her for a few rounds, Bai Yi can clearly feel that she is not very proficient in the control of the current power in her body, and she is a little rusty, otherwise she will definitely bring him more trouble; If she pushes backwards on this basis, she should be in a weak state before she gains this sudden power, otherwise she will not be so easily defeated by the duke's sons; But thinking about the fact that she had reached the Legendary level before, then what she had experienced was clearer.

She may have been a strong person before marriage or before she was violated, but after marriage for some reason, her strength gradually faded, which is probably not only the reason for being content with pleasure and neglecting exercise, but also some kind of chronic poison that can slowly consume people's magic power, otherwise her strength would not have regressed so quickly.

As for who would do such a thing, everyone knew it, and the duke, as a strong man who had not been tortured by the curse at that time, should have noticed this abnormal change, with his mind and understanding of the son he had raised for decades, it was impossible for him not to be aware of this problem, but he chose indulgence and acquiescence at this time, and naturally became the culprit of the tragedy.

What does the Duke think, why can he accept that his son has a green hat for him, and he doesn't care, maybe he likes this kind of exciting gameplay? That's not the point, just treat him as a psychopath.

The point is that the Duchess got help from others in the back and started her own revenge, and such a miserable experience inevitably made Bai Yi's sympathy attack, and he did not choose the most advantageous course at that time.

What's more, Widnina was watching him from behind his back at that time, and although the student had not been accepted for a long time, it was an important link between him and the Enright family, urging the Duke to obediently fulfill one of the guarantees of the transaction, even if she was in this posture now! It is impossible for Bai to ignore her opinion, which is closely related to the follow-up vital interests.

So in the end, Bai Yi was quite satisfied with the formation of such a pattern, and the choice to let go of the Duchess was not all out of his personal likes and dislikes, but he felt that this was the best.

As for the duke's remaining three sons, let them survive the duchess's subsequent revenge.

At present, the hidden danger left is the evil forces behind the scenes who help the Duchess, they are willing to provide this level of help to the Duchess, and even a new type of curse is used, it is obvious that it will not be a flood of sympathy, there must be other plans, Bai Yi has stepped in like this, which is equivalent to taking the fruits of their victory in controlling the Enright family as their own, and there may be something behind this.

Therefore, there are not so many perfect choices for many things in this world, and there are always trade-offs.

But there's nothing to worry about, it's the best weapon to deal with this kind of shady underworld forces, and this is exactly what Bai Yi doesn't lack at present.

"It's a pity that I really didn't have the embarrassment to take a closer look at the Duchess's body at the time, and I can't fully confirm that she is a pawn planted by the Fallen God Cult for the time being." Bai Yi said another sentence in the void.

"I looked, below the navel, with a black flame tattoo." A cold and clear voice suddenly replied, it was really a concise and clear speech that was in line with the habits of martial artists.

Belch... Below the navel... Bai Yi tried to touch his stomach with his hand, and began to secretly congratulate himself that he was a reserved enough person to not look carefully at that kind of part, but how did the martial artist notice? Everyone's a woman, huh? Actually look more carefully than men?

"Humph!" The cold snort sounded again in the void.

This guy... It's really degraded into a pig humming goods! Isn't it okay to explain it as plainly and simply as you did before? Bai Yi said helplessly.

At this time, Vidnina in reality shook Bai Yi's arm and said, "Godfather, can you stop in front for a while?" There's one of my favorite pastry shops there, and I'd like to buy some for Mia and them to take home. ”

"No problem." Bai Yi nodded, motioned for the driver to stop in front of him, and asked again: "Do you have any money on you?" Do you need me to accompany you? ”

"Yes, yes, I'll just go by myself." Vidnina hurriedly replied, then suddenly narrowed her eyes again, and said, "The godfather is really so careful and gentle, I really envy Miya more and more..."

"It's okay, everyone will be the same in the future." Bai Yi casually comforted.

Vidnina smiled a little more reluctantly, and when the carriage had stopped, she got out of the carriage and walked to the pastry shop to line up.

Bai Yi also seized this opportunity to get out of the car with him, walked to the coachman, pretended to chat normally, and whispered: "You did a good job this time, I can unlock some more restrictions." ”

"It is my honor to serve the Master of Hope." The coachman replied in a low voice.

Yes, there are many things that Bai Yilai has done that cannot be done by one person, such as waking up Vidnina in the Sleeping Circle; For example, finding the lady's room accurately in the dark; For example, knowing in advance that the duke's sons would only come home once in a while...

He had already planted an internal response in the duke's manor, that is, the immortal-level old man who summoned the Earth Walking Dragon for Vidnina during the last final exam competition, after being sanctioned by Bai Yi and losing all his strength, he was not completely abandoned by the family for the time being, but just changed careers to become a coachman...

The gap between the fall from a high and powerful man to an ordinary mortal has already made him deeply experienced, so under the great temptation of letting him regain the power he lost, he is willing to do anything!
