[A Princess]: Hey, isn't Mary coming back?!

[Daily baby]: It is said that he is sick and wants to rest in the Duke's Palace. Of course, we all know what's going on, and we shouldn't be back to the palace for a while

[Daily baby]: But I may come back in the future

[Daily Baby]: Duke Margaret sends Mary to the country. Sent to the family domain, where Lilith had been, the tower that had been burned down and rebuilt, where Mary had gone to recuperate.

[A Princess]: That's right.......

[Cafe-kun]: Where Lilith used to be, the possibility that Mary was Lilith's daughter has increased dramatically

[A Princess]: Anyway, this is captivity in disguise

[I'm a genius]: That's the kind of person the old fox is, but Mary is very important, and she should only suffer a little

[begging]: I can only wish her good luck......

[Wind Lord]: What happened to Arthur Lane?

[Daily baby]: Staying in Lane Mansion is basically not a guest

[begging]: Poor lovebird.....

Another few days of calm and calm passed.

There is news in the chat group that Arthur has left the imperial capital.

[I am a genius]: It is said that it was a letter from the Holy Kingdom asking him to return immediately, so he had no choice but to leave.

[Begging]: The hard-working lovers are separated from each other, and a love tragedy has ended......

[A Thief]: Maybe the story isn't over yet

[A thief]: Life is very long~

[Begging]: For me, this story is over, and the chess pieces that can't resist the master but have extremely high value will only die after being squeezed out of the last bit of value, and there is no future left

[I am a genius]: The world is unpredictable

[Coffee Jun]: Life is impermanent, who knows what will happen in the next second

[Wind Wanderer]: @[Begging], you're going to cross directly in the next second, the devil knows what fate is

[begging]: Hahaha indeed

......

Mary wasn't there, and April didn't have much else to observe, so she was a little bored, so she used to run to the library.

The library is a treasure of mankind, and many rare ancient books that the royal family has collected for so many years that are not available in the outside world are all preserved here. There are some precious or secret things that outsiders can't look through, only members of the royal family can see.

April spends her days in the library, rummaging through many books about the Margaret family and the history of the royal family.

The magnificence of history unfolded in front of her, and she was a little addicted to it.

April stretched out in her chair and cleaned up the books and notes on the table. She put some books back on the shelves, held two books and a notebook, and decided to go to the librarian.

The librarian knew who she was, and often opened the door for April, allowing her to read many forbidden books and contact the Emperor directly.

Aprile put one hand on the handrail and walked down the curvy staircase. Surrounded by countless books, the old woman with silver white hair in a beige shawl, with a pair of small round glasses perched on her nose, sat in a rocking chair, and was flipping through a parchment. The atmosphere is very peaceful and warm.

She looked up and noticed April, and smiled kindly at her.

"Is there anything I can do to help you? Miss. The old woman asked.

"Is Father free for a while? I'd like to go to him and ask him some questions" April had some questions about books that she couldn't find answers in other books and decided to ask Claude.

Claude was well-read, and in his youth, he had shocked young April countless times with his knowledge.

Hearing him say that he had read a book as thick as three bricks in one day, "The History of Trade in the Anse Air Period of the Empire", April, who had struggled to chew three chapters in a month, was dumbfounded.

Looking up at the eyes of the top students.jpg

She had been accustomed to going to Claude to answer her questions when she was studying, and now she decided to ask him.

"I'll relay it for you."

The old lady put the parchment book in her hand on the table, got up from the wooden rattan rocking chair with her blanket, stretched out her dry hand, and took a book from the bookcase behind her and opened it.

The old woman held the book in both hands, and silently recited something in her mouth, which sounded very melodious, and the book slowly emitted a burst of light, illuminating the old woman's wrinkled face.

The old woman stood there silently, her head bowed, as if listening to something, feeling something, and then she closed the book, put it back in the bookcase, faced April, and said softly to her:

"You can go look for him in three hours, he's waiting for you."

Then the old woman gave the exact address.

So Aprily went back with a few books and notebooks, and she went back to her and Mary's house, and went into her room, bringing with her a bouquet of flowers, which she had raised herself. She took these things to Claude.

In order to reserve the time it might take to find a specific room, which she had never been before, April left early

Walk slowly along the corridor, which often passes through a beautiful garden, and not far away there is another corridor that runs parallel to this corridor.

April saw a man in armor, tall and strong, walking as if to shake the rocks, he hurried, and Aprily went in the same direction and faster than him, quickly disappearing before his eyes.

April didn't even see his face, he was walking so fast.

Outside her father's office, the doorman told her that Claude was receiving guests and leading her in the hospitality room.

"Is it a guest who came out of nowhere?" Aprile asked.

"Yes, it was a temporary request." The servant replied respectfully.

"Please forgive me for not being able to give you specific information, I don't know if this is allowed." The minion's voice was apologetic.

April nodded, knowing the minions' difficulties, and did not embarrass the minions.

Ask Claude specifically, she thought, suspecting that the sudden guest was the man she had just seen.

Aprily flipped through the books in the parlor, pondered the questions to be asked, and ate some desserts. After some time, the servant took her to see Claude.

"Dad, are you okay? How have you been doing? ”

April handed the flower to Claude, who was working on the papers, and told Claude that it was a flower that she had raised.

"For you, Daddy."

Aprily used the flowers to talk about the small garden near her current residence.

"It's such a quiet place, I love it."

"Do you want a garden?"

"Huh? What? ”

"Yes." Claude bowed, "I'll let the craftsman come, you can go and talk to the craftsman about the specific requirements, and I'll arrange for them to go to your palace." ”

"No, Dad, I don't want to go back to my palace lately."

Go back to the palace, what if Mary returns? And life is quite interesting now.

"I don't want another garden either, it's enough to have that little garden."

That's how Claude deduced from her one or two words of emotion that she wanted a garden?!

"I just thought that place was interesting and wanted to tell you about it, but it wouldn't be interesting to reproduce another one."

"Let's talk about that." April, thinking of the purpose of her visit, changed the subject and held up her notebook.

"I've been interested in history lately, studying history in the library, and I have some questions that I don't understand, can I ask you?"

"Yes." Claude motioned for April to sit down, and answered her very succinctly.

Claude is still at his desk.

Look at the way Claude's pen doesn't stop.

April asked, "Did I bother you?" ”

"Nope." Claude looked up, "What questions do you have to ask?" ”

So Aprile picked up her notebook and asked her father about some of the doubts about the book, and Claude answered them one by one.

April observed Claude's expression, and even when he heard the dark arts, his expression did not fluctuate, but warned April not to touch anything related to the dark arts.

Is this the face that has not changed after so many years of being an emperor, or is there really no fluctuation in the heart?

After asking the question in the notebook, April said, "Daddy, can I ask one more question?" It's not about books. ”

"Say."

"Can I know who the guest you just met is?"

"Alexander Hill"

April knew the name, and this was the name of Grand Master of the Rose Knights.

The Rose Knights are subordinate to the power of the royal family, and their reputation and strength are strong, and the Grand Master is a world-famous powerhouse.

The garden had just seen the man walking too fast, and April didn't see his appearance clearly, only that he was probably a tall man with brown hair.

It seemed that Grand Master Alexander also had brown hair, and April secretly decided that she had to go back and flip through the books.

She didn't know much about the Knights, so she had to go back and look through the book and see the image of the Grand Master.

When the question was finished, April said thank you to her father, chatted a few more words, and said goodbye to Claude and left.

[A Princess]: Grand Master Alexander Hill suddenly came to the palace, what happened?

[Coffee]: Hill? Before, I was going to exterminate the Dark Wizard Gathering, and I was going to the imperial capital in a few days. Did you come back early......

Dark wizards use black magic, black magic is an evil spell made of flesh and body, life and soul, the empire prohibits cultivation, and where dark wizards gather, it will soon be ruined, so the Grand Master must deal with it, so as not to cause a big incident.

[Cafe-kun]: However, following his route, on the way back, he passed through the Margaret family's territory, where Mary was.

[I'm a genius]: There's no way the Margaret family will let him see Mary

[Cafe-kun]: Definitely.

[begging]: So why did he rush into the palace when he returned to the imperial capital early, and did he find anything that he had to report to the emperor?

[Cafe-kun]: I'm afraid I can't conclude this question for the time being.

Seeing that none of the relatives and friends in the group knew about it, Aprile could only put her doubts on hold for the time being

Mary returns to the palace, and April, as her roommate, soon discovers the incident.

Mary's sullen face was a far cry from the sunny one she had seen before, and April knew why, and so did the people at Elizabeth House.

This matter really spread throughout the social circles of the imperial capital, and even the palace came in.

......

The moon was high and the living room was quiet, and April went out to get something, only to see someone on the couch.

The moonlight shone on her long pink hair, and it was Mary. How could she be here alone, so late, and not turn on the lights.

Then she heard a few small sobs.

Mary is secretly crying in the living room!

April looked at her feet, the living room was carpeted, and there was no sound when she stepped on it, she glanced at Mary, and quietly went back to her room. After that, she bumped into it again, and in the middle of the night when no one was around, Mary whimpered alone.

April, she thought, would probably wait for time to pass before Mary could come out of this unblessed relationship.

......

[Coffee King]: Arthur Lane contracted a strange illness on the way to the Holy Land and was forced to stay in the town, but was targeted by robbers, and finally lost the enemy and disappeared into the forest.

[A Princess]: ???

[A Princess]: Is he still alive?

[Cafe-kun]: It's very unlikely, that forest is dangerous

[Cafe-kun]: That town is next to the forest, and there are mercenaries and adventurers who come and go into the forest, and the robbers can't find it anymore.

[Coffee]: By the way, they're on a wanted warrant, a wanted warrant issued by the Lane family of the Daylight Empire, and a wanted warrant issued by the Holy Kingdom

[A thief]: Ryan and the Holy Kingdom are furious, look at the bounty on it

[Daily Baby]: The robber is not a very famous villain, his strength is not strong, what kind of strange disease can make such a powerful knight lose most of his combat effectiveness.

[Cafe-kun]: I don't know, I just know that the power of light can't heal, Arthur Lane's face is full of abscesses

News of Arthur's disappearance soon reached the palace

Will Mary hear? Aprile thought, she knew the answer in her heart.

The palace was not a place where Duke Margaret could control it, and he couldn't forbid everyone not to talk about it.

But Nina kept whispering and begging the people around her not to say anything, and April knew that Mary would know eventually, but she didn't know when Mary would know.

Then, one day, Aprily wakes up to the sound of a pounding on the door.

A big thing happened.

Mary is gone!

Nina asks everyone in horror, but no one knows where Mary has gone.

However, the palace is full of masters, and it is not easy to find a little maid. There are powerful people who are helping to find it, but the magic restrictions of the palace are very serious, and it is not possible to find someone for a while.

The others were not idle, they were all helping to find it.

Aprili searched for places where few people went, calling out to her.

She went further and further away.

Well, in the distance it was Mary sitting on the stone steps. She was tidying up her wrinkled clothes.

"Mary, you're here!"

Mary looked up at the voice, "Miss April." ”

The voice is flat, the expression is calm, and it looks like it should be fine.

"Miss Nina is worried about you, come with me, many people are looking for you."

"yes, it's bothering everyone." Mary stood up and said to April, "Thank you for coming to me, Miss April. Sorry to bother you. ”

"No, it's good that nothing happens to you." April said goodbye and asked Mary to go with her.

April took Mary to find the others.

"You've been found, so everyone can rest assured. We're going to go talk to the others. ”

Everyone knew that Mary had been found, and they all expressed their concern, and Nina hugged Mary, frightened.

Mary's eyes were swollen and very obvious, but her posture was very elegant, she straightened her back, and said gently to the crowd around her, "I'm sorry for everyone to spend so much effort looking for me." ”

He also expressed his gratitude to those who were looking for her.

As graceful as a swan.

After this disappearance, Nina even slept next to Mary, not leaving an inch.

April watched as Mary's condition gradually improved, becoming more and more like Mary before, and it seemed that she had come out.

That's nice.
