Chapter 1728

~12 min read 2,231 words

Five minutes later, in the lounge on the third floor of Rose Manor, there was a knock on the door. After getting permission, the female sorcerer of the Sun Church who came to search entered the room, chatted with Miss Megan Green of Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals for a few sentences, and checked the traces on the window and windowsill before exiting the room.

A moment later, the wardrobe door opened, and Xia De walked out of the wardrobe:

"Can you recognize who was on the roof just now?"

"Of course not, just 7th-ring. However, the other party obviously used divine art. If I'm not mistaken, those two people just now were from the 【Tyranny Club】."

Megan said, and she was in charge of the body at this time.

Xia De frowned. He had heard of this sorcerer group. Rotten Eye Barry's letter mentioned that the illegal ring sorcerer group 【Tyranny Club】 active in the border area was also a ring sorcerer group that assisted "that gentleman," the Edwards ancestor.

"Believers of the God of Tyranny, those war maniacs?"

"At least they haven't gone completely crazy. They also worry about the church's official secrecy law and didn't dare to let the ring sorcerer do it directly in the manor where Jia Jia Lin Na stayed. The one who broke in just now was an ordinary person. The ring sorcerer could have come himself, but waited on the roof."

Megan judged, and came to the window with Xia De, watching the scene where the banquet ended early and the guests crossed the courtyard illuminated by gas lamps to leave the manor. The well-dressed gentlemen and ladies walked in a hurry, and the police station carriages rushing from outside the field of vision added more dynamic feeling to this scene.

"Is it the ancestor causing other things again?" Megan asked softly.

"Or, just another probe by ambitious people."

Xia De whispered softly.

No one knew the answer, but time had arrived in the spring of 1854 of the Sixth Era. In this most beautiful season of the year, the order of the Old Continent was ultimately heading towards inevitable chaos.

Although no one died in the shooting just now, Baron Lubock was unlucky enough to be hit in the left chest by a bullet. Fortunately, his heart was born on the right side, so he didn't die, but even so, it had already cast a shadow of death on this welcome banquet that was originally full of joy and blessings.

The banquet ended early, and the guests left Rose Manor in anxiety.

The church originally thought it might not be safe here and wanted Miss Jia Jia Lin Na to leave, but the duchess indicated that she would not live in the church:

"If I were scared away by a small shooting case just after arriving in Green Lake, what would I use to overwhelm those Karsen-Rik people next week?"

She refused the proposal with words full of royal majesty, but did not refuse the church's proposal to strengthen protection here. By the time Xia De and Megan saw Miss Jia Jia Lin Na again in the lounge on the third floor, it was already half an hour later.

She walked in with an apology and said to Megan:

"I'm really sorry, I should have entertained you well. You can only go back temporarily today, please come to find me tomorrow. Before the meeting next week, I am still quite leisurely on the weekend."

Megan nodded understandingly and also said what the two had encountered just now. Hearing the name 【Tyranny Club】, the duchess sighed helplessly:

"The believers of that evil god were quite active during the North-South War of the Old Continent. The church even found out in the military department of Delarion that a deputy secretary of the executive secretary was a member of the 【Tyranny Club】. But after peace came, they disappeared. I didn't expect that after so long, this group of people started to be active again... I understand, Audrey, Xia De, I'll send you to the door. I'm sorry for the poor hospitality tonight."

She was still worried about the secret she discovered, plus she had been intimate with Xia De yesterday afternoon, so she didn't keep Xia De again.

"Xia De, you go to the carriage with this maid lady first. I want to walk behind with Jia Jia Lin Na and say a few more words to her."

The brown-haired witch said again. Xia De thought it was a secret in the council that he couldn't know, so he left with Tifa and some maids first, which was also convenient to say goodbye to Angelina.

Megan watched Xia De leave, and then followed Jia Jia Lin Na and other maids to the corridor.

After Xia De's figure walked away, the smile on Megan's face disappeared. She threw a "Silent Portal" to both ends of the corridor, then pulled Jia Jia Lin Na Cavendish's hand and pressed her against the wall.

The maids around watched this scene with a smile, not feeling that this was an offense. The red-haired duchess made a helpless expression:

"Really, my lover just left. You doing this kind of thing, have you considered Xia De's feelings?"

"Jia Jia Lin Na, I'm not joking with you, what is the relationship between you and Xia De?"

Golden eyes stared at golden eyes, Miss Jia Jia Lin Na was unhurried:

"Our conversation just now, was it just a dream? Have you forgotten?"

"No, I am very sure you are lying."

Megan held Jia Jia Lin Na's hand with one hand, and the other three hands supported the wall together, her voice pressed very low, but it was a tone of gnashing teeth:

"You and him, have you done that kind of thing?"

The maid ladies around were whispering with red faces. They were the duchess's personal maids, not only knowing the story of the head maid and the knight, but also knowing what the knight and the duchess did, but the great witches didn't care about them.

"Why would you think so?"

Because the two faces were too close, the shadow covered the red-haired witch's face, but couldn't cover her curiosity.

"The way you looked at him just now..."

Megan said "viciously":

"Not to exaggerate, when you looked at him just now, your eyes were about to pull silk. I don't believe that your relationship stopped at the last step! Jia Jia Lin Na, what exactly did you do?"

"Eyes pulling silk? Oh, I like this description, it's really appropriate."

The smile on Jia Jia Lin Na Cavendish's face, which was full of charm, remained unchanged, and there was a proud look in her golden eyes:

"As for what I did, isn't this my privacy, Miss Pharmacist?"

She said this title again, and while Megan's expression changed greatly, she leaned down close to her side face. Of course, it wasn't a kiss on her side face, but whispered a few words in her ear.

The expression on the face of the witch with brown shoulder-length hair changed from slight anger to surprise, then from ten thousand astonishment to blushing, and finally from blushing to fear:

"Oh, don't describe it to me, you actually, you actually dare..."

She took two steps back and pointed at Miss Jia Jia Lin Na, who was smiling brightly:

"Yeah, strike first. This is an interesting experiment, proving that having something with Xia De won't affect the existence of witches. He can enter and exit the council at will, and is completely harmless to the Witch Council, and maybe even useful... He united us."

Jia Jia Lin Na's eyes looked directly at Megan:

"If you are rational enough, you should understand that you should keep everything you know in your heart. Originally, I planned not to tell anyone, it's interesting to enjoy it alone. I didn't expect you to be so smart to see it."

"You actually really did it... This is really amazing."

Megan quickly returned to calm. She shook her head quickly, as if to drive away the annoying mosquitoes:

"The things I know about Xia De today are absolutely no less important to us than the secret of the family's lake island, and even more important than a single Chosen One. Jia Jia Lin Na, do you know what you and them are doing?"

The Duke replied very calmly:

"Of course I know. We have the right to make choices for ourselves, and this is not betraying the council. The council didn't say we couldn't do this, right? Yes, I am very sure that the terms emphasized by the Speaker to us do not include this one."

Megan nodded with a deep expression:

"You don't have to try to convince me. Just because of what Xia De did for me, I couldn't let him go. I will hide his secret, but I hope to know more. This is interesting, and I also want to see how far the man I chose can go."

"Of course, you will know. Remember to come over tomorrow morning, we will enter the council together and report the investigation progress to the Speaker."

"That's good, I also have to go back and think carefully. Although your bad taste is quite terrible, I admit that you have kept this secret very well."

"Then, will you do what I did?" Miss Jia Jia Lin Na asked again, Megan's face flushed, and she shook her head slightly:

"I have to focus on handling family affairs now. Besides, my relationship with Xia De... is still a bit short of the last step."

Actually, she was still shy.

So the satisfied Miss Jia Jia Lin Na sent Megan to the entrance of the manor mansion. At this time, Xia De also walked over with Tifa and the carriage.

Xia De said goodbye to Miss Jia Jia Lin Na with a warm hug, and then waved to Angelina who was saying goodbye to him from the window upstairs.

The duchess stood with Tifa like this, watching the carriage carrying Xia De and Megan drive out of the manor. She took a deep breath, feeling the breath of the spring night in Green Lake City:

"Interesting night, but I'll be busy for a while."

The speeding carriage carried Xia De and Megan, leaving from the posts set up by the police on both sides of the street, and then headed to the witch's cruise ship by the Duin River pier.

Along the way, Megan didn't say a word. Xia De started the topic several times, but she just responded casually. After returning to the cruise ship, she grabbed Xia De's hand and entered her room, looking at him from a close distance:

"Xia De Hamilton, can we still get along like before?"

She said Xia De's name for the first time, and Xia De nodded:

"I think it's possible. Although I hid so many things, this won't change our relationship... You don't have to worry about the Witch Council."

Although that Speaker, Miss Isabella, has a high weight in the council, with these seven witch remnants—Felianna, Olandonode, Fiona, Violet, Theresa, Chloe, and Luweiya—Xia De is equivalent to having 14 votes alone. If the council really held a meeting to decide his affairs, he even thought his winning percentage was very high.

He hugged the girl in front of him, but didn't expect this was exactly what Megan wanted to do. The illusory arms behind her opened and hugged him, plus one of Megan's own hands, making him completely unable to break free:

"Megan, what are you..." "Do a small experiment."

The girl in his arms said softly, her voice very low:

"You don't do anything, I'll do an experiment. After this, I'll forgive your concealment. Yes, it's just an experiment."

Her right hand reached down, and Xia De widened his eyes at once. But no matter how strong he was, he couldn't resist the witch who was equivalent to two people superimposed in this kind of power confrontation. "Knowledge is power" wasn't said for nothing. Megan and Audrey's original physical strength far exceeded the average level of an 11th-level witch.

And he originally thought Megan was going to do what Miss Aurora...

... had done, verifying her doubts for the last time, but he soon knew he was wrong.

Xia De struggled more violently, but Megan and Audrey's three hands held him firmly. Because he and Megan were hugging tightly, he couldn't see the other's expression, just suddenly Audrey's upper body soul emerged from behind Megan, almost face-to-face with Xia De, while her hands still maintained the hugging posture.

There was shyness on Audrey's translucent face, but the way her eyes shone in this shyness was really beautiful:

"So it's this... taste... It seems you really are a man. This time I completely believe it. Very healthy, Xia De Su Lun Hamilton, your reaction is really interesting."

"Wait, Audrey, don't..." The soul kissed Xia De.

This also means that the original "soul separation" and the "birthmark physical manifestation" in the palm at this time can happen at the same time.

Although she and she were still shy, although she hadn't been able to make the decision to entrust her all, she still had the courage to do a little intimacy. After all, her appearance at this time was originally given by him.
