Chapter Thirty-Eight: Assassination

Alyssa naturally saw Keppel over there, and her fair and delicate face couldn't help but show a look of disgust, and she came to Ryan's side with small steps, covered her mouth with the white fan in her right hand, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Ryan, you see that you can meet Keppel here." There was a hint of surprise in his tone,

She knew that although the interstellar people did not reject magicians, they also looked down on them, no, it was more accurate that these pedantic people did not like people of different races from them, such as vampires and magicians, especially the latter had no status here, but today she was really surprised to see Kepel at Miss Marianne's birthday party.

Ryan just raised the corners of his mouth and replied very succinctly, "Someone to help him." ”

Alyssa was surprised to see that the other party had just opened her mouth to say something, and then she saw that the eyes of the others looking at her were more or less strange, so she coughed and pretended to look away as if nothing happened, Keppel saw that the other party took the initiative to get so close to Ryan, only to feel that it was very sour from her throat to her stomach, so she turned her face away and didn't want to look at the two of them anymore, plus he was almost transparent at this banquet, if it wasn't for getting rid of Ryan, he didn't want to stay here for a moment.

Felton, who was chatting with Duke Tours, the head of the Lewis family, saw Keppel's appearance and looked at their enemy Ryan's calmness, and he knew that the gap between the two was huge, and a look of contempt crossed his eyes but it was so fast that people couldn't notice it at all, at this time, a waiter walked to Ryan's side with a snack rack, and accidentally tripped under his feet,

The waiter obviously didn't react, and the whole person was about to fall forward with the snack rack, and the desserts in the snack rack flew in the direction of Ryan and Alyssa because of inertia, and everyone looked at this scene in surprise, and Ryan subconsciously blocked in front of Alyssa, just when Keppel thought that the other party was going to make a fool of himself in public today, a scene that he didn't expect happened at this time, and I saw Chris's hand quickly catch the snack rack, and the desserts fell back to the plate one by one. The waiter took the snack rack and apologized to the three of them, and then walked away quickly.

Everyone couldn't help but be very surprised when they saw this scene, but this was just a small episode made by the waiter's carelessness and didn't have much impact, so everyone quickly diverted their attention, but Keppel didn't wait for the scene he wanted to see, and he couldn't help but feel very disappointed, and even the disappointment on his face couldn't be hidden, and he couldn't help but think in his heart: This little slut is so lucky, it's all right. But when I came into contact with the look of a smile in the other party's eyes, I don't know why I felt an inexplicable chill rising from the soles of my feet, and I couldn't hide it when I was stared at by such a pair of eyes.

The expression on Felton's face was very calm from beginning to end, without obvious disappointment like Keppel, how could it be as simple as Chris trying to make that little slut ugly, and what he wanted was not just as simple as making the other party make a fool of himself in public, he wanted Ryan to die, although people can't be resurrected after death, but he just wanted to see the murderer of Greg die with his own eyes before he was willing.

But he felt that Keppel wanted to get rid of Ryan, probably not to avenge Greg, although the other party kept saying that he respected Greg as a commander, but he felt that it was more likely that the other party wanted to take Alyssa away from Ryan Thinking of this, he looked at Alyssa standing beside Ryan, and saw that the other party was wearing a white ruffled midi dress, chestnut brown long hair tied into a ball head, and her appearance was very exquisite, although it was not a country and a city, but she could be regarded as a typical beauty. It's no wonder that Keppel likes each other so much, but the other party obviously doesn't like him and only follows Ryan.

Keppel didn't know what Felton was thinking now, and he dismissed the idea of getting rid of Ryan at the banquet, because if he let those men in black break in and assassinate him now, it was very likely that the other innocent people at the banquet would be affected, and he didn't have the same vicious personality as the other party, so he planned to attack it while he was on the road.

Marianne, the host of the banquet, just stood quietly beside her mother, the Duchess of Meerna, wearing a pink and white dress, and never said a word, which would not be conspicuous in a group of nobles dressed in fine clothes but would not be noticed, at this time her eyes suddenly looked at Ryan, in fact, she wished that Evelyn, a slut, would die early, and with the Barranster family covering her behind her back, she was fighting with her all the time, so she didn't hate Ryan for killing Evelyn.

Ryan turned his head and looked at the other party coldly, his brows couldn't help frowning tightly, but he found that the other party smiled politely at him, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before he could react, Alyssa, who was standing quietly on his left, suddenly walked to his right with her skirt at this time, and also glanced back at Marianne, although today is the other party's birthday party, it doesn't mean that the other party can stare at the person she likes like that, Marianne's sight was blocked by the other party, I couldn't help but snort coldly with disdain, but I turned my face away, but I was thinking in my heart: I can't look at it, it's really stingy.

Ryan looked at the other party's actions, and couldn't help but feel very speechless, not in the mood to pay attention to the two, but turned to look at Chris standing beside him and asked, "Did you find anything strange in this mansion just now?" He felt that the other party was likely to find a way to get rid of him in the middle of the banquet, although he also knew that it was normal for the Lewis family party to invite him, but he just felt that something would happen later, but to his great surprise the answer was "no"

No? This kind of temporary change of attention is not the style of the Lewis family, is it because he himself is too sensitive this time? No, even if it's not the Lewis family, it could be someone else, at this time Ryan suddenly remembered that there was another person, that was Keppel, the other party shouldn't have appeared here, if the other party had no intentions, why bother to ask the Pritchard family to help him successfully participate in this banquet,

Coupled with the fact that he suddenly ran to his mansion yesterday to deliberately look for trouble, as well as the threatening envelope, then, Keppel has indeed joined forces with someone from the Pritchard family to get rid of him through this banquet, it seems that this time it was he Ryan who misunderstood the Lewis family However, if Keppel wants to use this banquet to put him to death, why can't Chris find anything suspicious near this mansion? Or is the other party planning to start while they are on the road? It's just that he's too sensitive or something, many times it's always good to have multiple hearts, at least it won't be eliminated in such a daze.

Felton couldn't help but wonder when he saw that the banquet was already halfway through, but nothing had happened, and glanced at Ryan who was looking down and didn't know what he was thinking, and then looked at where Keppel was standing, but the other party didn't know where he had gone, could it be that this person temporarily changed his mind and didn't plan to kill Ryan, or did he have other plans?

And Alyssa, who was standing next to Ryan, saw that Keppel was gone, so she just thought that he had been snubbed at this banquet and finally couldn't stay anymore and ran away quietly.

I don't know how long it took, the banquet finally ended, all the guests went out one after another, Ryan and the others were naturally the same, but when the three of them walked to the door, they saw Kepel, who had just disappeared inexplicably, suddenly appeared and stood in front of the three of them, Alyssa poked her head out from behind Ryan and looked at each other, frowning tightly, her face was full of disgust that could not be concealed, Ryan was very surprised at first, but soon the corners of his mouth pulled up a sneer, and he asked coldly after a while: "Keppel, What are you doing all of a sudden? ”

Keppel didn't answer his words, but just took a step forward and was separated by Chris's long sword, thinking that it would not be long before the other party would leave this world forever, and even sighed in his heart: If you only live to be a teenager, you will be tortured to death, and it is really pitiful that people who do a lot of evil will not live long. But he said sarcastically: "Of course I'm here to see you for the last time." Otherwise, he would never see him again, he quietly added in his heart.

Ryan's fair and handsome face gradually became extremely cold, and his blue eyes were like stars in the boundless dark night, showing that they were extremely cold, but after a while, he suddenly smiled and smiled extremely coldly, and said coldly: "Won't you be studying magic by Greg's side, and your brain is not easy to use after studying for a long time?" Even pigs are smarter than you when they're serious. ”

Keppel's face suddenly became very ugly when he heard this, and the anger in his heart was even more rubbing up, which was already insulting people without shying away, but he didn't expect the other party to dare to scold people here, but before he could say anything, the other party had already raised his voice and said: "I tell you, Keppel, I can kill you at any time as long as I'm unhappy, but if you kill me, can you guarantee that you can live until tomorrow?" When I die, you will be buried with me, and I believe you don't want your family to lie in the coffin for some reason, right? So you'd better stay with me, you can't kill me, but I can easily pinch you to death, as easily as an ant. After speaking, he and Alyssa walked around each other, and before they could go far, the other party's voice came from behind them: "Ryan, don't say too much, there are unforeseen circumstances." ”

Ryan stopped and turned to look at him, "Really?" If you don't believe me, you can try. ”
