"Carina, in order to tease me, you are even willing to let your grandniece, who is not yet a year old, kiss your lover?"
Meghan, trembling with anger, pointed at the duchess, who corrected her with a smile:
"Although little Agelina is not tall and has a pitiful figure, she is already an adult. Besides, I didn't force her. She might even thank me."
"you......"
"Megan, there is no need for you to be so angry. You are hiding your identity and thinking about my knight. What's wrong with me giving you a surprise? By the way, this has nothing to do with Shade. He has always wanted me to give up."
"I know this has nothing to do with him, but now that I think about it, his weird behavior can be explained clearly. So, it's all you... We agreed that we are all members of the council, and we are all sisters?
"
Megan gasped to calm down her emotions, and Miss Carina said with a smile:
"Yes, this is how the sisters of our Cavendish family get along with each other. If you don't believe me, you can ask Agelina later. In fact, the sisters of our family will do even more extreme things when they get along with each other."
She blinked:
"You can't accept this kind of joke, right?"
The corner of Megan's mouth trembled, and she raised her hand and threw the wine glass at her. It seemed that the two of them were quite restrained. The red-haired witch had long expected that she would do this. With a flick of her finger, there was a ding~ and the wine glass flew away again.
He went back. Not a drop of wine was spilled in the cup, and at the same time, a layer of uncertain light was attached to the surface of the cup:
"You won't forget that I am the twelfth ring and you are the eleventh ring, right?"
Megan reached out to catch the cup, but she didn't expect that the glass went straight through her hand like a phantom. The red-haired witch was about to smile and let the wine glass turn from virtual to physical, ending this little fight, but
I saw a pure white translucent spiritual arm stretching out from behind Megan to catch the cup.
Then, two spirit arms hugged Megan's shoulders, and a spirit head that was exactly the same as Megan poked out from behind her through Megan's brown hair.
Although she had seen many strange scenes, the duchess was still shocked by this scene:
"you......"
"Okay, the joke is over."
Shade spoke and asked seriously to the red-haired witch beside him:
"Are you satisfied now?"
"I'm satisfied. It's really fun tonight."
Miss Carina said with a smile, and then apologized to Megan:
"I know you are angry, so I apologize for the joke. Isn't this kind of welcome ceremony very interesting? And you see, the results are very good now, and you don't have to worry about me reporting Shade. You should be happy."
She took Shade to the sofa, and Shade apologized again:
"Megan, Audrey, I'm so sorry, I was also a participant in this prank."
"You don't have to apologize to me, I know who I should blame."
Audrey's spirit body said, and then Megan's hand suddenly pulled Xia in front of them. Then in front of Miss Carina, the body and soul overlapped, and the two kissed Xia together.
Germany.
The red-haired witch still had a smile on her face and sat down gracefully, holding a wine glass and watching the scene. When the two... three people separated, she motioned for them to sit down and talk:
"If you want to vent your dissatisfaction and anger in this way, I won't object. This joke is a bit too much, but I will always seek justice for myself. But today I opened my eyes. It turns out that three people kiss like this
...This is your perfect 'two-in-one' posture? It's so beautiful."
The last half of her sentence was not sarcastic, but sincere:
"But we have had enough trouble. Let's sit down and talk. There is still a lot to say."
After saying that, he shouted to the door again, asking Agelina to take Tifa and other maids back to the banquet hall to maintain the order of the banquet in place of Miss Carina, who was temporarily absent. So she leaned on the door and eavesdropped.
Agelina took a step back before responding.
Inside the door, Audrey's upper body soul returned to her body. She held a wine glass and sat opposite Carina. She watched Shade sit on the sofa next to her, and then was pulled to sit next to her by the red-haired witch.
After the anger and shame, this great witch of wisdom and knowledge also rationally thought about the situation at this time. She quietly watched Carina arrange for Agelina to return to the banquet hall. In fact, she also used this time to calm down.
Think about everything that has happened so far.
"Carina, you are really good at understanding other people's emotions."
She stared at the red-haired witch opposite, who toasted her with a glass of wine:
"Thanks for the family education."
After raising his eyebrows, he took the initiative to explain:
"Calm down? It seems that you have accepted my apology. But don't you admit that you are secretly happy now?"
"What's going on with you and Shad Hamilton?"
Megan asked, and Shade took the initiative to answer:
"Last summer, I met Carina in Tobesk. At first, she also used many methods to test my identity and gender, and later she agreed with me to explore the origin of my specialness together. And then...
....”
"I fell into the big web called love woven by the knight."
The duchess smiled and looked at Meghan:
"Although I teased you, you have to admit that we stand together."
"Since we are standing together, you should inform me of these things in advance. If the council knows about Shade because of your concealment, what will it do then?"
Megan asked in a stern tone, so the red-haired witch stretched her hand to Shade's neck, drew a thin line, and then took out the badge:
"Do you think Shade and I are unprepared? Look at this, it is a tool made according to the alchemy formula of the Fifth Era and can detect witches. However, it is not very effective for you. It must be within one meter to be effective."
She gently motioned for Shade to bow his head, then took off the pendant and threw it to Megan. After the latter took it, he felt an amazing amount of heat, and immediately understood what was causing the heat in his chest every time he hugged Shade.
.
When he saw the emblem of "Duchess of Saladir" on the pendant, the corners of his mouth twitched a few more times.
Shade also explained:
"Megan, the first few times I saw you, I wasn't sure whether you were a witch or not. It wasn't until we met the Mirror Hidden Man and you were forced to turn into a cat that I was sure of your identity as a witch."
"Then I won't let him tell you his identity."
Miss Carina took the initiative and said that she really didn't want to embarrass Shade. She leaned lightly on Shade and said in a sweet tone:
"I wasn't sure about your attitude towards Sha De at that time. After all, this was the first time that an exception like Sha De had appeared. I think you can understand my worries, right? My thoughts at that time were exactly the same as yours just now.
.”
"you......"
Megan took a deep breath, and then took the initiative to switch to Audrey, letting her sister continue to deal with the matter in front of her:
"It is said to be for Shade's safety, but I feel like you are deliberately retaliating against me for seducing you..."
She paused suddenly, knowing that she could never admit this:
"In revenge, I knew Shade's identity, but I didn't share it with you."
"Why do you think that? This is ridiculous."
The Duchess denied this lightly. However, she had no grudge against Audrey and Meghan. She was satisfied that she had achieved her goal tonight and did not want to provoke the relationship between the two too much, so she restrained herself a little.
With a serious expression on his face, he said:
"I'll tell you some good news. You don't have to worry about the council's attitude towards Shad. The number of witches who know Shad's existence, including you, is just over half, totaling six."
Audrey frowned slightly, this is indeed good news:
"There are so many of you, hiding this matter together, and no news has been leaked. You are really... great. Besides you and me, who else is there? You know this is very important.
"
Miss Carina signaled to Shade, while she drank red wine and looked at Shade who was close at hand.
"The second person who met me was Miss Sylvie Avora. Then I met Granny Xina Cassandra at Fort Midhill. Later, I met Princess Margaret during her visit to Tobesk.
I met Miss Emma Sylvia. After the end of the year, I met Miss Vanessa Benenice of the Golden Dawn in the Randall Valley at the beginning of this year.”
Shade said, and Audrey frowned deeply:
To be continued...
