The early morning sky takes on a pale blue hue, and the sun is not yet fully visible, only a dim light penetrates the clouds.

The light shone on the ground, outlining the busy crowd in front of the Earl's Palace, and the servants left the door open early, waiting for the owner of the mansion to return home.

Rogers stood outside the door, yawning uncontrollably, he had been sorting out the plot of the game in his mind last night, speculating on the scope of the butterfly effect, sorting out the key information that could be used, and he hadn't closed his eyes all night.

Alina stood beside him in a dignified and graceful manner, her long white hair, not curled up like yesterday, but fell to her waist like fine silk, and the morning breeze gently danced her hair.

Coupled with a plain and elegant white dress, as well as an elegant and upright figure, it is like a little fairy who has come out of an oil painting, and even the light is particularly fond of her.

However, the fairy had a gloomy face at this time, and from time to time he swept his cold gaze towards Rogers.

"As long as you are willing to help me through the trial in front of me, I will show you a big treasure tonight, something that has never been seen before in the world, and it will surely satisfy your curiosity."

Rogers glanced at the attendants of the mansion behind him, who were ready for the reception ceremony, and turned back to Alina.

He originally wanted to try to erase Alina's memory with the Ignorance Bonus, but found that the conditions for this bonus to activate required a huge amount of magic power, and even after being promoted to Bronze, it could only make people temporarily forget something for a few seconds.

What's more, he is still a black iron, so he gave up this plan and turned to appease the fiancée.

Rogers didn't want to be locked in the stargazing tower by the angry Earl, and there were so many plans for him to do, so he wanted Alina to help mediate.

After all, the future daughter-in-law's plea should be of some use.

"I'm sad, not because of your deception on me, but because I can't trust you anymore." Alina said with a cold face, moving her gaze in the opposite direction from Rogers.

Ever since that weird sacrifice ritual Rogers had performed yesterday, Alina had found that her Prophetic Perk had completely lost its effect on the guy.

Whether what was coming out of that sinister mouth was true or not, she was completely unsure.

What's more, all the futures associated with Rutgers seem to be covered with an impenetrable fog.

With the self who has socialized with Rutgers, the future has become a little blurred.

The more Alina thought about it, the more she felt that this hateful creature must be targeting herself.

Rogers shook his head and sighed when he saw this, and the boat of friendship capsized.

On the avenue in the distance in front of the door, the sound of clattering horses' hooves gradually became clear, and puffs of smoke and dust rose with it.

When the heavy iron hooves make contact with the ground, they make a low metal collision sound, and with stability and power, they are rhythmically intertwined to form a unique sonata.

At this moment, the sunlight also cleared the barrier, and sprinkled on the armor of several knights, causing it to shimmer with a metallic sheen, and the tall figure became closer.

When the well-trained knights came to the gate, they all rolled over and dismounted, and saluted Rogus by beating his chest:

"Follow Breed's will!"

Rogers looked at the leader closest to him, who had thick, lustre, crimson curls that curled meticulously over his skull.

His eyebrows are thick and black and powerful, his eyes are hidden in a pair of deep eye sockets, and the muscular contours of his entire face are strong and powerful, giving him a sense of inviolability and firmness.

Rogers knew him, a knight of honour named Recus, and the head of the Knights of the Count's Guard, who belonged to his family.

"According to the will of the Earl, I will escort the young master to the stargazing tower to rest first." Rykus said solemnly after saluting.

"Why?" Rogers looked confused.

"Lord Earl has heard about the young master's deeds yesterday, and he said that he is afraid that he will lose his temper in front of Earl Derwin, and he is even more afraid that he will not be able to control himself and kill his only heir by mistake." Recus repeated it one by one.

"I can explain ......" Rogers looked at Rekuth's stereotypical expression, shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and after giving Alina a "I believe in you" look, he followed Rekus towards the stargazing tower not far from the mansion.

Shortly after Rogers left, a convoy slowly approached.

At the head of the convoy were two majestic and magical silver horses, whose manes were intertwined with blue and purple like a waterfall.

On each of the two horses sat a middle-aged man, dressed in thick hunting garments with traces of dirt, twigs, and other plants.

The people who came were none other than Earl Braider and Earl Derwin, who had returned from the hunt together.

They were also followed by trailers containing all kinds of rare birds and beasts that had been hunted this time.

"Oh! My dear Alina! First of all, please forgive your father's sloppy image, your mother was a little delayed because of the carriage ride, and I believe it will come soon. ”

Earl Derwin, who was known for his gentleness, jumped off his horse and walked to his daughter with a smile.

"Did you still have fun with Rutgers? He didn't do anything rude to you, did he? Earl Braider also dismounted, and asked with a smile on his lips.

Alina lifted the hem of her skirt and gave a ladylike salute to the two counts, and she looked up at Earl Braid, who was questioning, and the smile could not help but make her feel slightly uncomfortable.

Rogers' smile when he deceived her yesterday was almost the same as Earl Breed's expression at this time, if there really is what kind of heir, what kind of father there is.

"He ......"

Just as Alina was about to remove the unspeakable secrets and reveal Rogess's rude behavior and confinement, a burning pain suddenly came from her abdomen.

Because Rogers answered a question yesterday, according to the terms of the contract, Alina must give Rogers a help that does not violate the bottom line of morality.

But "deception" should be considered immoral.

It's a pity that Alina doesn't understand that the moral bottom line marked in the contract is not the morality recognized by secular public opinion, but what Rogers himself thinks.

The poor girl had not yet figured out how fate had played tricks on her, only the pain in her abdomen reminded her that this time she had been pitted again.

"Lord Rogers has excellent manners and demeanor, he has not behaved in any rude manners, nor has he done anything bad to me, and I enjoy his company."

Alina reached out and covered her lower abdomen where the burning pain slowly dissipated, and replied with a slightly aggrieved tone.

Earl Devon looked at his daughter's slightly frowning brow, subconsciously covering his lower abdomen, and this obviously insincere words, and instantly made up a variety of plots that made him unacceptable.

There seemed to be a flame burning in his amber pupils, and the fury in his eyes was accentuated by the fury between his eyebrows, and the air currents around him seemed to be shocked by his sudden burst of anger, producing a brief pause.

Seeing this, the surrounding servants lowered their heads one after another, and at this time, Count Devon still had a half-minute gentle shadow.

The smile on the corner of Earl Breed's mouth slowly disappeared, and his face gradually became gloomy, he knew that his son had an average character, but he never thought that it would be so bad!

"Rutgers !!"

A roar of rage rang out from the door of the Earl's Court.

Rogers, who had just arrived at the stargazing tower, couldn't help but instinctively shrink his neck, and he could hear that it was his father's voice.

"It shouldn't be, the contract hasn't expired......"

He muttered bewilderedly.
