Chapter 816: Guests Always Like to Come at Night
"When you're promoted to a demigod, I can consider telling you part of the truth about Edsak's death."
After some deliberation, Louise opened her mouth to give such a futuristic answer full of uncertainties.
Because at this moment, Louise's position is not particularly obvious, and she is not sure what attitude she will maintain in the process of George III's promotion to "Black Emperor".
However, cultivating Triss is a variable that is well worth doing, after all, it doesn't take much effort, but the role she may play in the future is very considerable, and this is a typical investment with a small size, and Louise has no reason to give up.
Painting cakes, she's good at it!
On the other hand, Triss was both disappointed and expectant when she heard this answer, her trust in Louise had reached a relatively high level, and she did not doubt the authenticity of this promise.
"The man behind the scenes is powerful?" She asked.
Louise nodded earnestly and admitted, "It's stronger than you think, because Edsax's death is just one cog in a larger plan." ”
Triss was silent for a moment, then uttered her guess:
"Rune official? And the 'Witch Sect'? ”
It's not hard to guess, but what really matters is the purpose of doing so, and how to find a chance for revenge, Trissy, Trise, you have really chosen a very difficult path for yourself!
Louise sighed in her heart, indicating that she only nodded, and did not give more detailed information, but asked:
"What's next, do you want to continue your covert investigation?"
Triss hesitated for a moment, and after thinking about it, she gave her own answer:
"After the injury recovers, I will try to find an opportunity to be promoted to a demigod, but I will continue to investigate, this time it was just an accident that the demigod was discovered, and I will be more cautious in the future."
Louise is not surprised, probably this is the power of love, right? She nodded noncommittally and said simply:
"One thing to note, since you have accepted this ring, there is a risk of being discovered by the 'Witch Sect', and you may be hunted down by a greater force."
After all, the ring is a product of Chick's power, and the "Witch Sect" will most likely not give up this thing, but because it has always been in Louise's hand, it has been safe and sound, but once it is handed over to Triss, the result is unpredictable.
However, for Triss, who has already sold herself to the "Original Witch", in order to fulfill her wish, she doesn't care about it at all, anyway, her relationship with the "Witch Sect" is complicated enough, and it is not bad for this.
So, she simply responded:
"Thanks for the reminder, I'll pay attention."
Seeing this, Louise didn't say anything more, and coincidentally, Triss didn't know what to talk about, and the two suddenly became silent at the same time, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
"Why don't you heal from your injuries with me before leaving?" Louise asked, as a master.
Who knows, Triss really nodded and agreed:
"Thank you, I'm worried that the enemy may not have given up completely, so I want to take refuge here for one night, and leave early tomorrow morning, I will find a safe place to recuperate."
Louise secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she was just polite, almost thought that Triss was going to take it seriously, but fortunately the latter was more sensible.
There are many reasons why she doesn't want to take Triss in, the most important of which is that Triss is the "primordial witch" Chick's divine descent vessel, and it is impossible for Louise to keep such a time bomb by her side.
Giving the "0" level seal ring to Triss was not without the idea of using it to attract the attention of the "Witch Cult", and Louise, as a bystander, had a chance to profit from it.
Of course, Triss also knows this, but this is not exclusive to her appeal, and even quite helpful, so she decisively accepted this hot potato for a person who may drown at any time, even if it is a spider silk, she will desperately get it in her hands.
After a night of silence, the next morning, when the number of pedestrians on the street gradually increased, Triss mixed in with the pedestrians and left without incident, and the official demigod who chased her seemed to have really given up and did not show up at all.
…………
It's another week, and the situation in Beckland is still as calm as water, but whether this is just a superficial phenomenon is unknown.
After breakfast, Louise drank the black tea brought by the maid and asked in a casual manner:
"It's been pretty good lately, haven't you?"
As a result, the maid lady lifted her eyelids slightly, glanced at Loise, and quickly retracted it, and replied softly:
"It's not a big deal, it's just that there have been a lot of guests at home in the last few days, and I always like to visit in the dead of night."
Hearing this, Louise couldn't help but be stunned, looked up at the maid, and immediately understood, this is to point to herself, it should be that Triss came last night was discovered.
This is also purely normal, after all, Louise did not deliberately eliminate the traces of Triss's appearance, and the maid lady can go in and out of the bedroom on the third floor at will, and at the same time she is a "spectator", her observation and attention are very sharp, and it is strange that she can't find it.
But listening to the tone of her voice, why does it seem to have some resentment? Is it because I haven't cared enough lately, or has the maid noticed something?
Alas, the "audience" is really not easy to deceive!
After a quick turn of her mind, Louise showed an ambiguous smile and explained first:
"Last night a friend was in trouble, so he came to us to take refuge, and I let her go in the morning."
Then she took the maid's hand again, took her into her arms and sat down, and whispered in her ear:
"It should be calm tonight, let's have a good chat, what do you think?"
The maid's face couldn't help but be dyed a hint of crimson, and there was a little more charm in her eyes, and she said softly and shyly:
"This isn't a bedroom."
Louise smiled, stopped drinking tea, and took the maid's hand directly and walked up to the third floor.
It was nearly three o'clock in the afternoon, and Louise, refreshed, was sitting on a comfortable sofa with a satisfied smile on her face.
Suddenly, a crimson halo appeared in front of him, and his consciousness suddenly appeared in the Hall of Giants above the gray mist.
However, the usual greeting session inevitably had a twist and turn, because the "Tarot Club" had a new member.
As the "Tarot Club" has been established for a longer time, the time interval between new members has become longer and longer, and now there is a new member suddenly without warning, which makes everyone feel surprised and curious at the same time.
Soon, Miss "Justice", who had come back to her senses, skillfully walked towards the top and greeted in a brisk tone:
"Good afternoon~ Mr. Fool."
It's been a long time.,I'm very sorry.,I won't say anything about the reason.,In short, it's the New Year.,But there are some things that are not very happy...... But the story still has to be written, and this original intention will not be forgotten
