"Severia, I'm glad I met you here tonight, otherwise I wouldn't have known who to dance with."

Glerint, who had become a pharmacist, smiled and leaned over to kiss his hand, he was more radiant than he had been some time ago, making Angel wonder the true purpose of his perseverance in finding this way potion.

"Miss Irene, it's a pleasure to meet you, I haven't seen you in my salon lately, and Audrey hasn't been there much, have you forgotten about me?"

After greeting Severia, Glerint looked at Angel again, with the same smile on his face, and raised his hand slightly pompously.

"Sorry, I've been a bit busy lately, I'll definitely be attending next week's salon."

Actually, it's because I went straight to Audrey's house and skipped your "middleman......

Angel sneered.

After a brief pleasantries, Glerint officially invited Severia to dance together.

"Little baby, you go to the restaurant to rest for a while, maybe you will meet unexpected people."

After leaving an inexplicable word, Severia stretched out her arm for the viscount to hold, and the two walked to the center of the hall, and then danced with a little ambiguity in the abrupt change of dance music.

"I didn't expect Glerint to be interested in a woman like Severia who was older than him...... Well, but it's also possible that the power of 'pleasure' is at work, and Severia doesn't want to turn her title of Baroness into a Viscountess, does she? ”

Angel watched for a while, and found that the two seemed to be close to each other the more they jumped, and their movements were ambiguous, and they suddenly felt dry mouth. In order to avoid some strange thoughts when she looked any further, she followed the other party's arrangement and made her way from the circular corridor on the second floor to the dining room at the back.

This is a hall about the size of the ballroom in front of it, with long tables covered with white tablecloths, and plates of exquisite dishes, expensive wines, and cold cuts and pastries with different contents.

Another band played a different style in the corner than the antechamber, and some of the guests who had to come to socialize but were not interested in the noisy ballroom gathered here to talk with their plates or wine glasses.

Angel, who had not yet eaten in a complicated dress, happily picked up the plate, chose some of her favorite sweets, as well as the meats that were particularly interested in tonight, and came to a corner of the restaurant to quickly eliminate these valuable foods.

"Severia said I'm going to meet someone I didn't expect, meaning someone here is going to come to me? According to her previous words, it was a certain young lady, maybe I still knew ......"

After filling her stomach, she picked up a glass of low-alcohol sweet wine, and raised her glass to hide her eyes as she looked around, looking at the guests.

Their average age was much older than that of the nobles dancing in the hall in front of them, many of them were middle-aged, and they were talking about government affairs, big deals, and year-end income, which was more like a dinner party for business than a ball. But no one paid attention to her, and no one came forward to talk to her.

To her surprise, the "hunter" who had appeared with Lola, Vincent, was also in the crowd. The middle-aged man in a tuxedo and a pair of thick-rimmed glasses was talking to two other men, his hand holding the glass shaking.

Feeling Angel's eyes, he looked over slightly, and instantly recognized the "Witch of Pleasure" who had established a cooperation in private.

The two looked at each other and looked away in tacit understanding.

"But what Severia said can't be Vincent, did I misunderstand what she meant, she really just asked me to come here to rest?"

Puzzled, Angel paced from one corner of the dining room to the other, and then to the side hallway.

There are valuable landscape paintings, brightly lit but few guests, and a few doors leading to separate balconies, mostly closed, and there seems to be a conversation outside, only one door is ajar and ajar.

She pushed open the door, and the balcony outside could see the red moon in the sky and the meticulously groomed garden below, but to her surprise, a man and a woman were already standing on the balcony, all looking at her uninvited guest with curious eyes.

"Sorry, I thought no one was ...... here"

Angel, who disturbed the tryst between the two, quickly looked away, apologized, and prepared to leave.

"No, wait a minute, this young lady."

The woman in the heavy black dress whispered, glancing at the middle-aged man beside her, who nodded, walked past Angel, left the balcony, and closed the door.

As the other party turned his face completely towards Angel, she saw the face of the woman in the black dress, she was completely different from the old-fashioned dress on her body, she was only about eighteen or nineteen years old, with long black hair, slender eyes, and a round face that made people feel pity.

She was a member of Terry who had a relationship with Angel at the Dragon Bar Underground Market in Tingen, and had planted a cursed altar on the outskirts of the West End, fought the Nightwatch, and even nearly killed Crane's witch.

Triss!

Angel looked at the other party with a puzzled look, her brows raised slightly, as if she was curious why the other party left her on the balcony, but her heart was already turbulent.

It turned out that the witch had fled from the city of Tingen and had come to Beckland...... It seems that she should have been taken back to the organization by the Witch Sect, and even arranged her to be with a certain nobleman?

When he first met with Severia and accepted her "examination", the other party once mentioned that he had picked up an important chess piece from Tingen, and Angel didn't care about it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, is it Triss?

At this moment, Angel thought a lot.

Fortunately, she wears the "Ring of Madness", and even uses the incomplete magical item to protect herself, turning into a "Faceling" characteristic of human skin, which ensures that the other party cannot recognize her true identity.

"You're the other 'witch' that Severia is talking about?"

Triss took the initiative to speak, glancing at the doorway from time to time, and behind the translucent glass, the silhouette of the middle-aged man reflected in the light could be seen, who was like the same sculpture, faithfully guarding the balcony.

Angel nodded cautiously and did not answer. She didn't know what Severia's plan was tonight, but judging from the other party's reaction, the "unexpected person" mentioned by Severia should be Triss.

By the way, during her examination, I said that I was also under Mrs. Sharon, and that I knew "Tris...... Does she think that I don't know that the other party has become a witch and has become a woman, and wants to give me a "surprise"?

Thinking of this in an instant, Angel had a follow-up plan.

"Heh, I recognize you from the necklace you wear, Severia says I know you, but who are you?"

With a beautiful face full of doubt, Triss tilted her head slightly and continued to ask.

The look at this moment was so pitiful that Angel's chest was pounding, and he almost wanted to tell the truth.

She immediately understood that the unique power of seduction with any single action was one of the characteristics of the "Witch of Pleasure".

The other party is no longer a "witch", but a "joy" who has been promoted to sequence 6!

I don't know if Severia, or the Witch Sect, doesn't know this......

Angel thought secretly, and also pretended to have a puzzled expression on his face, as if he was thinking, and after a while, his eyes widened, and he suddenly said:

"It's you, you're Tris?"

Triss, whose identity was pierced by a word, looked panicked, and then was covered with a smile that knew everything.

"Sure enough, you really know me, you are from the city of Tingen...... Are Sharon Hoy's other 'Assassins'? ”
