Looking at Arthur, who was hiding his small body on the steps, Bauer couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Sweat had already soaked through the clothes on his back.

In fact, if it weren't for Tabor and Alice who were scared to their knees first, he would have been kneeling there.

And now?

After seeing the miserable appearance of Tarber and Alice, he was scared, he didn't dare.

He knew the methods of Captain Albert, the hunter.

What the other party is best at is skinning their prey!

He didn't want to be skinned!

Maybe it's just to scare people! ’

'Maybe it'll be fine!' ’

In fear, luck began to spread like weeds, and Bauer would line up at the back of the line with his head bowed and head down towards the basement.

Only one person can go in at a time.

Once inside, the door closes.

Then?

There was no prayer and no repentance.

It's getting down on one knee!

There's no one around, so I'll be able to fool around?

Bao Erbi thought to himself, but the sweat on his forehead became more and more - because the spirit medium was not far from him, and the calm face of the other party gave him endless pressure, as if his throat was about to be choked and the whole person was about to suffocate.

But fortunately, the old butler took Albert with him to put up a curtain.

The curtain extends to the basement door, separating those who enter from those who come out.

The old butler and Albert stood on the side of entry.

Why, Bauer will not know.

But he knew that he finally didn't have to deal with that terrifying medium.

Because, the medium is standing on the side that comes out.

It's just great!

Thinking in his heart, Bauer must have breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, when it was his turn, he cautiously walked into the basement.

In the dim candlelight, Bauerbi saw the terrible 'Anna' lady again, and immediately his knees began to weaken.

However, he gritted his teeth and did not let himself fall to his knees.

'Get down on your knees and you're done!' ’

'Just get down on your knees and the ceremony will be successful!' ’

'I can't kneel! ’

As an old man who has served the Doyle family for twenty years, Bauer must have heard of some 'mysterious' things.

He knew that the 'mystical side' was extremely magical, but to see such magic, it needed to take one step at a time - that is, rituals.

If the ritual is not completed, then the magic is not there.

Obviously, the one-knee kneel that the medium had just emphasized was part of the ritual!

'I won't be fooled!' ’

Bauer must have told himself out loud in his heart that he was firm in his convictions.

However, when he saw Lord Doyle's remains, he still felt a trace of guilt.

'I'm sorry, sir, I don't want to!' ’

But I don't know why I lost so much! ’

'You've said you'll only forgive me once, and you'll kick me out of the manor a second time!' ’

Bauerbi couldn't help but recall his days as a valet, when he received a high salary and was extremely beautiful.

If he hadn't been caught gambling on a holiday outing, he would have been able to go on - those hateful creditors had found the estate!

'Damn it, you came to the door for a mere 200 gold ticket, what a bastard! ’

'Do you know that it was because you came to the door that although the lord paid me back the money, I also lost my job as a valet and became a third-class servant? ’

'It's because of you that I've spent the remaining fifteen years in the manor?' ’

Thankfully, though, I'm going to be lucky! ’

Thinking of this, Bauerbi's face overflowed with an abnormal flush.

His breathing began to rapid, and his eyes lit up with excitement.

As long as I win this bet, I can completely turn over! ’

'I will also be a lord that everyone respects, not a servant!' ’

'Look, sir, I will be more respected than you, and I will prove how wrong you are not to use me!' ’

The imaginary Bauerbi became more and more agitated, and he gritted his teeth to keep himself from scolding.

However, this time, when his eyes looked at Lord Doyle's remains, the guilt in his eyes was long gone, and only a thick resentment remained.

Or even ......

Resentment!

In Balbi's heart, the reason why he became what he is today is because of Lord Doyle's suppression.

Otherwise, how could he be a third-class valet with his talents?

At the very least, he had to be Vic's butler...... No!

At least a knight too!

Just as the Lord promised!

At the thought of the great promise, Bauer would not linger long, and turned and walked up the passage separated by the curtain—he was a little weak when he walked out of the basement, but he was relieved that nothing had happened except a slap on his knee.

And when he quickly moved away from Arthur, and the two servants who knew him well, heard that their knees had also been slapped twice, Bauerbi was completely relieved.

It was clear that the ritual had been of no use to him, as he had guessed.

'Damn the test, get it over now!' ’

In the bottom of his heart, Bauer cursed loudly.

And he didn't notice that behind him, Arthur swept away the playful gaze - lime paving, kneeling on one knee and staining lime is not a clever technique, and even needs to wait for everyone's eyes on the side of the curtain, and needs to use the [Void Hand] to pat the lime to hide people's eyes and keep the last mystery.

However, it works well.

At least the mole was caught again.

However, Arthur didn't plan to let the other party go to the dungeon to be with Tarber and Alice.

The other party is more useful!

After about fifty minutes, the test of loyalty was over.

At this moment, it is close to evening.

Vic, the old butler, stood up on the steps again, his face relieved.

"Thank you very much for your cooperation – because of some things I had to do and as compensation, from now on you can rest until tomorrow morning.

And in the evening, there will be a banquet at the estate.

At the banquet, not only everything will be informed, but an important event will be announced.

At the same time, at tonight's banquet, wine, barbecue, and fruit will be served to everyone in unlimited quantities.

Waters blow your flute now! ”

With the announcement of the old butler, the only little dissatisfaction in the hearts of the servants immediately vanished, and they were full of anticipation.

Although it was already evening, they were looking forward to the rare rest and the banquet in the evening.

And the old butler's mouth Waters was even more smiling, because this was the moment he most expected to perform—as an old lord's player, he was not only good at playing the flute, but also singing, and even playing the harp.

The servants dispersed.

The old butler's face sank.

Arthur had just informed him that another mole had been discovered.

The old man's former personal valet, that rotten gambler Bao Erbi!

He knew that to give this kind of rotten gambler a chance to reform himself was to gamble with his life!

The lord is so kind!

With emotion in his heart, the old butler personally stared at the traitor, and when he saw the other party leave the manor in a hurry, the killing intent in the old butler's heart was like substance, there was no doubt that when the other party returned, the manor would suffer the catastrophe - if the other party was not found.

And now?

The old butler with a box of explosives began to fiddle quietly on the drawbridge.

However, just as the old butler was cutting through a drawbridge log and preparing to fill it with explosives, a figure on horseback approached quickly.

The old butler immediately covered the explosives with his clothes before he looked at the other man—he looked well-dressed and decent, but his cheeks were thin, and he did not match the clothes, and he wore gold-rimmed glasses, which made him look like a monkey with glasses.

As soon as he pulled the reins, the other party smiled and said-

"Hello, may I ask Arthur. Is Lord Krados here?

I'm his lawyer, Lyotel!

Follow his call! ”
