Early in the morning, Bernice got up early, took a shower, and then combed her long purple hair.

Put on the close-fitting white stockings, tighten the waist, choose the most popular dark blue gothic style dress in the capital this year, look at the mature, noble beautiful lady in the mirror, and nod with a satisfied face.

After applying a little light makeup, putting on a light gold shawl, wearing a lace-trimmed mesh hat, black gloves, and making sure that there was nothing inappropriate about the overall outfit, he went out with the skirt.

The light blue four-wheeled carriage at the door was ready, and the groom in his coat opened the door with a smile on his face: "Beautiful lady, please!"

"Thank you!" Bernice smiled brightly, and the smiling groom's heart rippled with spring.

Immediately, the carriage walked down the wide, neat street towards the Tokachimon Gate with the sound of horses' hooves.

Tokachimon is the most prosperous and famous place in the entire Beland Imperial Capital.

Its name is derived from the famous king of the early days of the empire: Sarulus the Great.

It is rumored that the Emperor of Saluros rarely lost in a battle, and went on many expeditions to win consecutive battles.

The most famous one is to lead the human coalition army to fight the abyss monsters, from the last position of the human race to the abyss cloud valley, all the way to ten battles and ten victories, the abyss monsters and aliens killed are terrified, and they lose their armor.

It was in that battle that Saruros the Great became famous all over the world and was firmly engraved in the history of mankind, and has been admired by countless young people to this day, hence the name Shikaemon.

Since the establishment of the Shikaemon Gate, it has been a famous tourist attraction of the Belland Empire, it symbolizes the pinnacle of the Belland Empire, and it represents the proudest backbone of the Belland people.

The Tokatsumon Gate is huge, and you can see it from afar.

It appears to be at least seventy meters tall and thirty meters wide.

The entire gate is carved with intricate patterns and reliefs, including numerous prostrate monsters, kneeling enemies, fluttering flags, and a tall man riding a Pegasus and carrying an axe in the center of the lintel.

Tokachimon is not only a gate, but also an area.

This area is bordered by the Imperial Palace to the east, the Holy See Center of the Holy Blood Church to the south, and the commercial center of the Empire to the north.

The people who live here not only have countless amounts of money, but also the kind of big families that have been passed down for hundreds of years.

And the most important point is that the big families who are qualified to live here are all imperial heroes whose families have great war exploits and have produced generals and marshals.

Therefore, it can be seen that there are only a dozen huge and luxurious manors in front of and behind the huge Shisheng Gate.

The Grasse family is one of them.

Skip over the tall dark red courtyard wall to see the quiet paths, green meadows, delicate flowers, and beautifully manicured greenery.

The huge gray-black castle sits in the middle of this fairyland, with huge houses at least 100 meters long, covering a huge area.

The overall style of the house is more inclined to English Gothic, the overall style is tall and thin, the walls are thick and solid, the top spire is high, the bottom is full of pointed arches, and the middle of the wall with patterns is a large window with a thin height of stained glass, the overall look is light and slender, and there is a unique sense of flying.

The carriage stopped in front of the large iron gate in front of the courtyard, and a maid in a blue shirt and a long white skirt was already waiting at the door, bowed down and said, "Miss Fellowes, please!"

Bernice smiled and nodded slightly, and followed the maid through the side door into the manor.

"Bernice!" Seeing Bernice approaching, a woman wearing a luxurious cotton white top and pink silk dress happily ran over.

"Miss, slow down, slow down, etiquette!etiquette!" the slightly older maid on the side hurriedly reminded.

The woman playfully stuck out her tongue after hearing this, disapproving.

The woman looked to be in her early twenties, fair-skinned, oval-faced, with blonde hair and eyebrows, and a few faint freckles on her face, which, instead of affecting her beauty, made her youthful and energetic.

This one is Bernice's best friend, Tracey Glass.

The two good sisters held hands very closely, and Tracey said mysteriously: "Come on! Come on! Yesterday my brother got me something good, come and see!"

With that, he took Bernice by the hand and walked into the room.

Bernice followed her a few steps forward and asked, "Tracy, is your father there?"

Tracy nodded and said, "Well, I'm reading in the study now, what's wrong?"

Bernice whispered, "You know, my brother is a very powerful mystic. ”

"Mmmmmmmmmm

According to Bernice, Bernice's brother is a very powerful mystic, almost omnipotent, very powerful.

Ahh

Suge, who was exercising in the morning, suddenly sneezed.

"Who's talking about me?" Suge rubbed his nose and continued to punch.

"You told me the other day about the theft of the Marquis's loot, and I told him about it when I was in contact with my brother, and guess what?"

But this is very appropriate, not only will it not cause disgust, but it will also raise the sense of anticipation.

"What's wrong? what's wrong?" asked Tracey twice in a row, blinking her big, sparkling eyes.

Bernice whispered in her ear, "My brother has news of the blood sacrifice, and when he heard that you and I are good sisters, he immediately told me the news, and let me tell the Marquis today!"

"Really!?" Tracey looked surprised and excited, like a cheerful lark.

Bernice said seriously: "Of course, how can you lie about this!"

"That's great! I'll take you to my father!" said Tracey, who immediately pulled Bernice and ran to the Admiral's study.

"Miss! the master is reading!" said the nanny in the back, hurriedly.

Tracey and Bernice were wearing flat leather shoes and ran fast, saying as they ran, "We have important information, and we won't disturb my father's reading!"

............

Passing through the hallway, in a room on the third floor, Tracey knocked on the door.

"Come in, Tracy. Inside the door, there was a calm voice with a hint of helplessness.

Tracy shrunk her neck and cautiously poked her head in, "Father, how do you know it's me?"

Behind the desk of dark red solid wood, there is a middle-aged man with a tall and sturdy demeanor, gray hair and beard.

He looked to be in his early fifties, and he sat there like a creeping tiger, giving people a sense of oppression without anger.

His eyebrows are thick, his eyes are bright, and he is full of strength and tension at the same time.

This one was the greatest admiral of the empire in the last three hundred years: Green Glass.

The knife-like Chinese character showed a hint of doting on his face: "Knock on the door five times in a row, and you will use this rude way of knocking in the huge family." ”

Tracey stuck out her tongue and pulled Bernice in and said, "Father, father, I've done a meritorious service!"

"Oh, what have you done, my sweet little Tracy?" asked Green, putting down the book, kindly.

Tracey immediately repeated what she had just said, Green's thick eyebrows rose slightly, her eyes fell on Bernice's body, her dark green eyes with a slight chill, and then she said softly: "Little Tracey, you go out first, I have something to talk about with your friend." ”

Tracey suddenly pouted unhappily: "Why are you carrying Tracey on your back?"

Green smiled and said, "There are some things that you don't know right now, but my father will tell you later." ”

Tracey snorted, and although she looked rude, she obediently turned away.

After Tracey left, Green stared at Bernice with indifferent eyes, and a terrifying coercion was released: "You have been close to Tracey for so long, and you have finally revealed your true purpose, witch." ”

Hearing that her identity was revealed, Bernice remained calm, and said with a slight smile: "Thank you Lord Marquis for not reporting me to the Holy See after discovering my identity." ”

"Hmph!" Green snorted coldly: "I hate people who like to play tricks, my information is not expensive in the occult world. Tracey is innocent at heart, and there are countless people who have wanted to reach me through her over the years, but they are all gone. ”

No, the word is very ambiguous.

But it's this ambiguity that makes people feel chilled.

Bernice was still calm at this time: "Don't get me wrong, Lord Marquis, I'm not not clever. I did look into you, but this is after meeting Tracey. I can swear by my faith that when I first met Tracey, I didn't have any utilitarian in mind. ”

"Does the witch have faith too, do you believe in the March Goddess?" asked Grimm faintly, with a deep playfulness in his eyes.

He has seen a lot of this kind of person.

The reason why Bernice can say so much today is only because he is in trouble in the blood sacrifice.

Bernice shook her head, "I believe in the Lord of Storms and Death, the only true god of the valley and the abyss. ”

"Huh!?" Hearing the name, Green frowned slightly, as if in thought.

After a moment, he asked directly, "Tell me your purpose." ”

Bernice said calmly, "Last night, there was a mysterious battle in Bane City, one of them killed more than twenty mystics, and obtained the blood sacrifice with overwhelming strength. ”

"It's pretty well informed. Green sneered.

He had already received a telegram last night, and he was just thinking about how to contact the arrogant legendary bishop and save his face.

After all, his relationship with the church is too bad, and this thing is in the hands of the church, and there is almost no possibility of returning.

"That one is our leader, His Majesty the Pope of the Church of the Evening Bell. Bernice said calmly.

Hearing this, Green adjusted his sitting position, the banter in his eyes gradually subsided, and his eyes flashed with a fine light: "Sug Sototh?"

"Yes. Bernice nodded earnestly.

Green was silent for a few seconds and asked, "What do you want to express?"

Bernice continued calmly, "His Majesty asked me to tell you that he can return the blood sacrifice to you at any time. ”

"Huh!?" Green was stunned, a little unable to react.
