Chapter 293: Under the Mist (2)

Of course, our Perry will arrange it for you. Moreover, the young lady of the Florey family should be taken care of in every detail. Belton stepped out of the way of the arch and extended his hand to invite. After Susan and Luna enter the main hall, he instructs Perry, the butler, to take care of other matters.

First of all, you will be greeted by a circular staircase that separates from the left and right, both of which lead directly to the second floor. In the middle of the two staircases is a portrait of the Betsy family. What makes Susan find strange is that Belton not only has portraits of his family hanging on the walls, but also some people who are dressed in the same way as Belton. Those figures are to the right of Belton's portrait, alongside portraits of his family. After a closer look, Susan found the emblem that she didn't see on Belton's clothes.

The insignia on the black robe was a ball of falling fire in Susan's eyes. As for Belton and his family, they also wore the emblem on their chests—something resembling a shovel head.

Seeing Susan thinking, Luna deliberately asked. "If we hadn't seen the emblems, Mr. Betsy would have laughed at us," she said. ”

"What? you say the emblem in the portrait?" Belton pointed to the portraits on the left and right, "The people on the right are some of my old friends. They are all members of the Church of Light. ”

Susan was surprised to hear the words Church of Light. Of course, she knew that the Church of Light was founded in the City of Miracles before the Kingdom of Alex unified the kingdoms of the Terrans. She was surprised that Belton turned out to be a believer in one of them. In fact, it's not a big deal. What surprised Susan the most was what Belton told her, that Belton was the deputy head of the Church of Light.

"So, Mr. Betsy, can I ask you for something?" asked Susan.

Things were not good, how could she turn to this man for help? Luckily, Luna was prepared. Luna let go of Susan's right hand, hugged Susan's waist from behind, and said, "My sister is talking about if you can prepare a dinner." ”

"Dinner?" Belton looked at the mischievous smiling Luna, "Look, you must be hungry." Why didn't I think of that?"

Having escaped the catastrophe, Luna celebrates in her heart. In order to make everything logical, she also deliberately pulled Susan and coquettishly to Susan. Later, Luna shakes Susan's arm and asks for Susan's permission as if she hadn't grown up.

"Your sister is such an innocent child. It would be nice if I had such a child who would never grow up. Belton said.

Regarding dinner, Belton did not refuse. In fact, Belton had children, and they had their own lives.

However, Belton's daughter was not too lucky. His eldest daughter died in the war with the Remnant Moon Clan, while the second daughter married a nobleman from the Kingdom of Alex. For a while, Belton inquired about the whereabouts of the second daughter, but the people who came back said that the whereabouts of the second lady's family were unknown, and the reason was that the City of Honor had been defeated in the war with the Order.

In the end, Belton pinned his hopes on his youngest daughter. One of the three daughters is going to stay around, right? Since Mrs. Betsy died, the youngest daughter had locked herself in her room, and Belton had spent a great deal of energy searching for someone to heal her. With a vision in mind, Belton is happy to take care of the two young women in front of him.

Led by Belton, Susan and Luna made their way up the east corridor instead of a circular staircase. In the corridors, there are portraits on the walls between the houses. For example, the god of light spreads blessings, the first god knight Owen gains the power of the gods, and so on.

However, the portrait hanging on the other wall of the corridor is hideous. One of them is something Susan can't forget. In the painting, a girl of Susan's age is being burned at the stake, on one side of the girl is a handsome man, and above the sky is a black dragon that brings lightning.

"Sister, it's the Black Dragon Plague, don't you remember?" said Luna to Susan. She used a joking tone, but she knew everything in her heart.

"Yes, your sister knows a lot. Belton said. He stroked his beard and smiled at Susan. He looked polite, but it was a little embarrassing, because he also said in a memoralistic tone: Look, a warm dinner, young people like it, but unfortunately not everyone knows the good intentions of their parents.

Listening to Belton, Susan misses her family a little. So, Susan blamed herself a little. Although she went to visit her family, she did not see her sister. Later, she also asked the people of the Meritorious Knights, but there was still no clue. People say that the war has caused people to flee in all directions, and it is God's favor to be able to be with their parents. However, the person who likes to be coquettish at Susan is also Susan's family, so shouldn't he be able to turn a blind eye?

"If ......," Susan said inadvertently.

"If, there was dessert for dinner. Then I will definitely thank Mr. Betsy for my sister, because my sister is especially fond of eating dessert before meals. It's rude, but ......" Luna pouted, clearly making another request.

Faced with the young girl's plea, Belton begged for mercy. When he passed by a lady, he gave the order to go down. Two fruit mixes, and they have to be chilled. In order to make it taste better, he even asked the lady to prepare a dipping sauce, whether it was sesame seeds or honey.

Belton's attention to the guests made Susan a little unaccustomed. Even at home, Susan had to help with household chores with the presence of a servant, and things like fruit were tasted by her sister from the moment they were put on a plate. In fact, the youngest daughter of the Shirley family enjoys much more than Susan, who is a little girl who loves to be coquettish and can't be beaten and scolded.

Despite the fact that Susan is often robbed of things by her own sister, she still dotes on her. Even, Susan has learned the craft of sewing since she was a child. If Susan's sister breaks her clothes while playing, Susan will help clean up. Thinking of the past, Susan couldn't help but look ugly.

"Mr. Betsy, don't mind my sister. That's how she is. I'm guessing I'm worried about getting you in trouble. Luna spoke again. However, she is not going to continue to explain what happened after Susan. She squeezed Susan's hand hard and warned Susan to cooperate with what would happen next.

Luna even uses magic to transmit sounds. She said directly to Susan: "There are many kind people in this manor. But how many people survived the nameless fire? If you don't want to see that tragic scene, you have to mention that God has covered everything up and let this guy Belton honestly prepare dinner for us. ”

Thinking of those ordinary, kind people, Susan can only compromise. She has to tell Luna the story of her twin sisters being temporarily taken in after they are killed. So, what's next?, Susan doesn't know what Luna is going to do. All she knew was that Luna had told her that she was looking for someone. As for who that person was, Susan didn't know, and Luna didn't say it at all. It's as if Luna is playing a guessing game with Susan.

How dangerous it is to play guessing with demons, and Susan can guess the tragic ending. Either way, it's good to see the person you're looking for. Calming her inner turmoil a little, she looked at the walls to the left and right.

There are many more portraits of Bryson and Stahl in this castle. However, each painting worries Susan. Even, she wondered if there was something wrong with her perspective. Different people don't necessarily have the same view when it comes to a thing. As Susan sees, the hideous ones are all the humans in the painting, and the sad ones are Bryson and Star.

In fact, the people in the painting either show fear or prays for mercy. In Susan's eyes, Bryson and Star, surrounded by flames, should look terrified and plead for mercy. "Forget it, what are you doing with all this?" said Susan, eager to see the man Luna had told her.

After passing through several doorways, Susan and Luna followed Belton to the restaurant with the door facing north. The person who turned the doorknob was none other than Perry, the butler of the Betsy family. Susan didn't know when Perry was here—in such a short period of time, maybe it was done with wind magic, anyway, Susan knew that Perry, a middle-aged man, was just as easy as Belton.

"Ladies, dinner is ready. ”

Perry is inviting. Seemingly, he changed his clothes. In Susan's opinion, Perry was dressed neater than when he was at the arch. A clean, long-sleeved white shirt and a leather waistcoat. Just as she was about to thank her, Susan saw the scar on Perry's brown pants.

Is that...... Bloodstain?

Susan quickly stopped what she was thinking. The moment she looked down again, she knew that Perry had just seen the eyes. Perry's eyes were polite, but there was something wrong with them. Susan couldn't portray it in her heart, but she felt a kind of fear, and even felt some kind of evil thought. Susan had seen similar looks on her previous journeys, and those with such elusive eyes were either ill-intentioned or outright villains.

So, what did the Betsy family come from? Susan thought back to what she had seen. Some of the servants who were in the garden behaved politely to themselves. Some of them are actually smiling, but how can they suddenly feel creepy?

Susan thought carefully. Finally, she remembered a place that was not normal. No, they weren't all servants! She remembered a scene when the boy who claimed to be Hugh appeared, and some of the servants would clench their farm tools tightly in the face of the two girls, as if Susan and Luna had stolen the fruits of their labor. But those servants were not the owners of the manor! And who would take two well-dressed aristocratic ladies for thieves? After all, Susan and Luna had come out for help.

Before entering the restaurant, Susan thought of the words "guard" and "concealment". The people here must be unusual. So, what about Mr. Betsy? Belton was decent, and polite. If there's something to hide, then Belton definitely knows how to hide it better than anyone else here.
