Chapter 221: The Old Witch, Evening Invitation
"However, according to the words of Master Kubait, we should be considered allies now...... Therefore, the problem of the Pleiades naturally has to be dealt with......"
"Anyway, let's go in first. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Phyllis pointed to the door of the Duke of Karsten's mansion and looked at Mouton and Pleiades and Rem with a smile on his face.
Under the leadership of Phyllis, the three entered the Duke of Karlsten's mansion, and then, after arranging the rooms of the three, Phyllis began to treat the Pleiades.
After the treatment, under Mouton's inform, the Pleiades began to practice swordsmanship with the sword ghost Wilhelm, saying that it was a sparring practice, which in Mouton's eyes was simply a one-sided abuse of the Pleiades......
However, what can be found is that the Pleiades have made great progress, especially after Mouton gave away the sword energy, the Pleiades' swordsmanship can progress more rapidly.
……
Two days passed in a row, and on this day, the wind was beautiful and the sun was shining.
Rem and Mouton sat on the soft grass and chatted while looking at the Pleiades who were training with Wilhelm in the distance, both with bright smiles on their faces.
"The progress of the Pleiades can really be seen with the eyes...... It's a good thing she's working so hard......" Rem said with a smile on her cute little head.
"Hmm...... By the way, Rem, can your race detect the witch's breath? ”
Rem was stunned, then nodded, and said in a gentle voice, "Yes, Mouton wants to ...... Wait a minute! ”
Rem's eyes suddenly dilated, and on Mouton's body, Rem actually sensed another kind of witch's aura...... When Mouton came into contact with Shatila before, he was contaminated with the witch aura of the jealous witch, and now he ...... What's the deal with the other witch aura on Mouton's body?
This witch's aura is extremely light, if it weren't for Rem being so close to Mouton, she really couldn't find it at all!
"What's wrong?" Seeing Rem's eyes, Mouton paused, a little strange.
"Mouton...... You...... Mouton, you have another witch breath on you......"
"Huh? What do you mean? ”
"Didn't Mouton have the aura of jealousy on his body before...... Just now, Rem sensed another witch's aura on Mouton......"
When Mouton heard this, he suddenly fell into thoughts, could it be that the mysterious guy who made the space freeze yesterday was a witch?
"Can Rem tell which witch's breath it is?"
"This won't work...... It's hard enough to be able to detect the aura of a witch, and it's so hard to tell which witch it is......"
Rem thought for a moment and said, "Moreover, there are several witches in this world, in addition to the witches who are considered to be the Seven Deadly Sins, there are also the old witches who have been excluded from the Seven Deadly Sins. ”
"Old Witches?" Mouton captured a new term, according to the information he got when he asked Betty at the Rozval Mansion before, the Seven Deadly Sins Witches, jealousy, strong desire, anger, laziness, gluttony, arrogance, lust ~ lust, the seven witches have all died to death, and the suppressed ones have been suppressed, so there is a 60% chance that they are not the Seven Deadly Sins Witches......
So, the witch who appeared yesterday is the old witch?
Mouton's mind was in a hurry, and he had already figured out a lot of things in an instant, but Mouton was a little puzzled by the practices of these witches, why he always liked to leave his own breath on others...... What kind of thing is this?
"I'm sorry...... Rem can only judge the witch's breath, and can't help Mouton with anything......"
Listening to Rem's apology, Mouton was a little angry, pinched Rem's cheek hard, and said, "Didn't you say it all, don't say the words sorry and sorry all the time, Rem must be confident in herself, you know?" ”
Rem blushed and lowered her head, listening to Mouton's voice, letting out a thick, nasal 'um' sound.
"That's really ......" touched Rem's little head, Mouton stood up, stretched his muscles and was about to leave, when he saw a figure in the distance approaching.
Looking at the approaching Ku Bait, Mouton raised his hand and greeted: "Hi, Kubaitxiu, it seems that you have nothing to do today?" It's rare to wear casual clothes. ”
Ku Bait Xiu walked to Mouton's side with his hands on his back, a long green hair scattered behind him, a dress with pale white tones on his body, no powder on his face, but still beautiful, he was used to seeing Ku Bait Xiu, who was usually coercive like a strong woman, and suddenly saw this kind of virtuous dress, Mouton unconsciously looked at it a few more times.
Sensing Mouton's gaze, Kubaitxiu's eyes flickered, and he turned around a little shyly in his heart, looked into the distance, and said, "There is nothing wrong with resting at home for a while once in a while, and giving the body and mind proper relaxation, right?" ”
"That's ......" Mouton nodded approvingly, it seems that he is not the only one who has the same idea......
"By the way, do you have any thoughts on yesterday's events?"
"What's the matter?" As soon as Mouton finished asking, he suddenly thought of something, and blurted out: "Could it be that Kubait Xiu is referring to the Great Fog and the members of the Witch Sect who appeared in the eastern region yesterday?" ”
"Qing is really smart, yes, it's true."
"I don't have any opinions, but Phyllis also went to participate yesterday, and you should know something from him......"
"Yes, I know something, but I'm very strange, the fog that suddenly appeared yesterday hasn't cleared yet, and the members of the Witch Cult who are active in the royal capital, what do they want to do......" Kubait's brows furrowed slightly, and his orange eyes glanced at Mouton, as if he was asking, and he seemed to be asking himself.
"What exactly do you want to do, I think, the kingdom should make the right countermeasures, after all, doesn't the king still have a sword master?"
"Everything can only rely on the Sword Saint, especially in the current period of the king's election, the Sword Saint family wants to support Firut as the person who competes for the king's election, then, as long as the sword saint makes merits, it will be attributed to Firut's name, at this time, it is extremely unfavorable to us who are the king's choice, so sometimes we can take the initiative, why slack off?"
"Hmm...... Very insightful. Mouton nodded, and said, "No wonder you are one of the hottest candidates for the throne......
"For me, as long as I take the throne, I will definitely let this kingdom break the alliance with the dragon, all these years, Gustic in the north, Carraaki in the west, and Flaccia in the south, all of them are eyeing our Lugonica in the east, if one day the dragon does not conclude the covenant, I think, the country will surely perish at that time, therefore, I must express my opinion at that time, even if it is against unspeakable risks and words, but, for now, it seems that The minds of those people have not yet become corrupt and degenerate to the point of no cure. ”
Among all the kings that Mouton came into contact with, only Kubait Xiu was the most insightful, but Mouton, as Emilia's knight, naturally didn't say much.
What's more, Emilia also worked very hard for the king's election, so what Mouton can do now is to help Emilia gain the trust of the people and let more people support her, so even the most prestigious Kubait Xiu and Anastasia, Emilia also has the power to compete, there is a good saying, whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world.
After chatting with Ku Bait Xiu for a while, Ku Bait Xiu was also about to end the conversation, his bright star-like orange eyes quietly stared at Mouton's black eyes, and then, Ku Bait Xiu said, "Tonight, if it's convenient, can you have a drink with me?" I think I still have a lot of things to talk about with Qing, because it seems to me that there are a lot of topics between Qing and me......"
"Duke Kubaitxiu's invitation, I don't dare to refuse." Smiling, Mouton agreed.
"Then, tonight, on the balcony on the third floor of the mansion, I will wait there for the arrival of Mouton." As soon as Mouton withdrew his gaze when he saw Kubait Xiu who was far away, he saw Rem pouting and a resentful expression.
"It's okay, don't get me wrong, between me and Kubaitxiu, I just want to make friends, after all, I'm a very insightful woman, Rem, don't you think so?"
"Yes...... Yes! Rem turned her head and pretended that nothing was going on, thought about it, then turned her head to look at Mouton, and said, "Lord Emilia should be the most disadvantageous party in this royal election, so Mouton must help Lord Emilia......
"The kind and lovely Rem has said so, then I have to work hard." Mouton's soft voice caused a seductive flush on Rem's face.
"I ...... I...... I'm going to get on with other things first......"
Seeing Rem who had fled, Mouton shook his head and smiled, this girl, sometimes she is so bold, but sometimes she is shy, is this a contrast and cute......
……
At night, the breeze blows, and the moonlight covers the ground like a white veil, adding a touch of brilliance to the land shrouded in darkness.
On the third floor of the Duke of Karsten's residence, Mouton came here and saw Ku Baitxiu, who was sitting at a small round table and looking at the bright starry sky with a small round wine glass.
"Since Qing is here, why are you still staying there, sit down." As he spoke, Ku Bait Xiu turned his head.
Perhaps because of the very bad night, Kubait Xiu was wearing only tulle-like pajamas, and by the moonlight, his graceful and delicate body was fully reflected.
Mouton's gaze was not rude, and he sat opposite Kubaitxiu, looking at the other wine glass placed on the small round table, and the wine jug placed on the side, slightly stunned.
Afterwards, Mouton took the flask and poured some wine into the glass, and took a sip of the glass, and there was a hint of sweetness in the wine.
"Well, this wine, isn't it?"
"Well, good wine."
Ku Baitxiu smiled slightly, put down the wine glass in his hand, a blush appeared on his face, and said: "This is a good wine in the house, and I specially took it out to entertain you, the guest who accompanied you to drink, tonight." ”
"Oh?" Mouton's brow moved, and then, with a smile, said, "I'm really flattered......"
"But why didn't you see your knight today, that cat-eared pseudo-lady Phyllis?"
"Phyllis has something to deal with today, didn't he find that he disappeared after he finished treating the Pleiades in the afternoon?"
"I didn't pay attention, I thought he just left ......"
Ku Bait Xiu shook his head: "Phyllis's work is actually very hard, after all, he is the chief healer of the kingdom, and he has a lot of healing work in a day, not to mention this...... Come. Kubait raised the glass in his hand and looked at Mouton.
"Okay."
Mouton held the wine glass and collided lightly with Ku Bait's wine glass, and after the two of them took a small sip each, Kubait Xiu continued: "Qing promised to accompany me for a late drink, so there must be something you want to talk to me about?" ”
"It's better to say, you also have something to talk about, right?"
"Qing is a little unlikable to girls in this regard......" Ku Bait Xiu shook his head and smiled, paused, looked at the dark distance, and said softly: "Can Qing say, why does he have such a strong strength and help Emilia?" ”
"Why help?" Mouton thought of what Parker had said to him...... After a little silence, Fang continued: "Maybe it's because of what happened to her......"
"What happened to Emilia? I've heard...... I see......" Kubait Xiu nodded suddenly, and then smiled: "I knew from the alliance letter sent by Rozval before, you asked Wilhelm about it before?" ”
"That day at the Rozvale mansion, I felt the emotion that Mr. Wilhelm had when he talked about his wife, so I asked curiously......"
"I see...... Kubait Xiu took another sip of wine and said: "You must have heard some of the encounters in Wilhelm, so I won't talk about it, as my swordsmanship instructor, he is also very strict in teaching me swordsmanship, after all, when he was young, he was the 'sword ghost' of the Megatron battlefield......"
"I heard that Mr. Wilhelm's wife, Theresia, the last generation of Juggernaut, was killed in the Moby Dick crusade fourteen years ago?"
Ku Baitxiu's face became slightly solemn, nodded heavily, and said, "That's true, but there are many things involved...... In some respects, even the Asterrea family does not know the specifics......"
"It seems complicated...... Mouton's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "Since it's a close secret matter, don't know too much...... I remembered the other day when you invited me to come to the house to gossip, that is, Mr. Wilhelm served you in order to kill Moby Dick? ”
"Yes, I will kill Moby Dick."
"Has anyone ever said that you are very strong?"
Stunned, Ku Bait Xiu suddenly laughed: "I've heard many people say this...... So, do you think I'm also the kind of person who is very strong? ”
"Hmm...... To be exact, it's just a specific aspect of performance...... At the end of the day, it's no different from other girls......"
"I've never heard a comment ......" Kubait Xiu looked at Mouton in a complicated way, took a few sips of wine, and then asked, "I saw Qing and the maid named Rem today, it seems that they have a very close relationship?" ”
"Hmm...... Right. ”
"Are they lovers?"
Mouton thought about it, didn't know how to answer, and replied yes, but there was no definite relationship, and the answer was no...... But it was strange to the Kubait Cultivators......
"It's in progress, right?" After a long time, such an answer was given.
"Lovers, ......" (To be continued.) )
