Chapter 683: The Battle in the Office

"Welcome to Easte City, Mr. McCann Barran, Mr. Carlo Plante, Mr. Ivan Yafel. ”

Christina had a flawless smile on her face, and her demeanor was as calm as if she were the master of the place, and the clerks in the office were like servants. Christina did not bring an accompanying maid today.

For a moment, Ballan froze in place, as if he could not accept the dazzling image in front of him. He came with all his might, but lost to Christina in the first moment of meeting.

"It's been a long time. Christina bowed slightly, her sea blue pupils beating with joy at reunion, she looked at Ivan, "I was in too much of a hurry to separate last time, and I didn't have time to say goodbye to all the distinguished guests of the Magic Alliance, please bear with me." Are Miss Joan and Miss Trander alright?"

"This ......," Ivan scratched at his hair. Christina's acting skills are so good, it looks like she really doesn't know anything.

"Christina Martiel Villiers!" Barran's eyes widened, and he said unexpectedly, "You, what are you doing!"

There was a sudden gasp in the office. Christina smiled and waved her hand to show she didn't mind. This is the Kingdom of Phadran, Christina is the noble Duke, there is no evidence that she is an illegal magician, even if Ballan is the judge of the Magician Alliance, his attitude is really too rude.

"It's just that considering that you are tired from the journey, as a nobleman of Phaedran, I don't want to be rude. Come, Jessica, pour tea for the guests. Christina casually called out the name of one of the clerks, and gracefully motioned for the desk to be converted into a tea table. Barran held his breath, his expression as if he had been slapped on the head.

Christina was undoubtedly a nobleman of the Kingdom of Madland.

"We're here to investigate you. Carlo spoke at the right time, without any emotion in his tone.

"I've been notified. Some people say I'm an illegal magician? Christina covered her mouth and chuckled, "It's normal for this kind of thing to happen in aristocratic circles, please don't worry about it, just investigate how you want." ”

In aristocratic circles......

Ivan suddenly understood Christina's intentions, and at the same time figured out the origin of the report letter.

It was sent by a local nobleman near Greentown, right?

Christina is only eighteen years old, and the title is inherited from her deceased father. According to common sense, such a young girl should not hold real power. However...... Ivan vaguely remembered that at the ball in the Wanhua Hall of the Jostre Palace, a nobleman once said that Christina was the queen's right-hand man, and there were even terrible rumors that "the country is actually two queens". Christina's methods are very tough, and while supporting the queen and her own power, she must have offended many other nobles.

It's normal that someone wants to frame Christina.

"So, does Miss Villiers think that a nobleman has framed you?"

Pretending to be confused, Ivan took a few steps forward. Glancing back at the blue-faced Ballan, he paused again, "I've read that letter before, and it says that you used a strange power when the Water Witch attacked the Wanhua Palace. ”

"Oh, that's what I said, but I just pulled out a little late. I. Don't worry about the Queen's Majesty. Christina smiled wryly, "Mr. Ballan." Why, don't you want to accept my kindness?"

There was a hint of aristocratic majesty in his voice.

"I don't know what you're calculating, Villiers. Ballan let out a long breath, grimaced, and shook his head, "Don't think that being a nobleman can protect you! What the hell have you done?"

"Phew......" Christina's expression seemed quite helpless. Seeing that Ballan didn't want to drink tea with her at all, she turned her chair around and sat down facing Balran. Although Ballan was standing, he still couldn't overpower Christina in aura.

"On January 6, Her Majesty the Queen held her regular social ball at the Wanhua Hall of the Josterre Palace. I would like to invite Miss Trander and Mr. Yafel to attend. Miss Trander and Mr. Afel in order to reclaim the treasures of our kingdom of Farland...... Ah, it's been handed over to the Wizard Alliance...... He has made a great contribution to the recapture of 'Glass Tears' and deserves this honor. I didn't know at the time that they were assistants to the executor, Miss Showlyn Joan......"

Christina spoke patiently, and after talking for so long, Ballan did not interrupt her, and was probably also shocked by the momentum of her noble lady. Christina said that she was not close to the battlefield at all, and when the Wanhua Hall was attacked, she immediately ordered the gate to be opened and the guards outside to support. Her Majesty's personal guard was to escort her away, but she insisted on waiting a little longer, until after all the nobles had withdrawn, and she was reluctantly relieved to see Ivan rushing to protect Her Majesty.

"I know very well that I can stabilize the situation, but I can't join the fight, and if I can, I want to protect Her Majesty personally. There was a hint of regret in Christina's lowered eyes, "My personal guards didn't directly fight the water witch herself, but what happened later, I heard from them that it was the Holy Magister of the Wizard Alliance, Laxis Flotica, who eliminated the water witch and completely solved the crisis in Jostre Palace. ”

"You, your personal guard......" Ballan gritted his back teeth.

"A few guards are waiting outside the door, do you need to let them in?" Christina smiled softly and softly, "the other guards...... Can we wait until tomorrow? If Mr. Ballan wishes, tomorrow I will have them all come to the office. ”

Christina's words really have no loopholes at all, and even Ivan can't help but admire her, and it seems that there is really no need to worry about her. Four personal guards and an elderly coachman walked into the office, and Barlan interrogated them for a long time, blushing with rage, but their answers were not different from Christina's account. Ballan reluctantly argued with the clerks for a long time, none of whom thought Christina was an illegal magician.

This time, Christina won quite beautifully.

Ballan left the office in a huff, and the beautiful city of Easte seemed to him like a strange and shrewd enemy. Ivan's mood was much lighter, but he never found a chance to talk to Christina alone...... Forget it, there will be a chance in the future.

The office has arranged a place for them to live, and since they can't determine that there is something wrong with Christina, they can just continue to investigate Xiulin's whereabouts, right?

It was supposed to be like this...... (To be continued......)
