The night rain outside the window has been falling, and in addition to the sound of rain, the sound of waltz coming from downstairs also appeared and disappeared. Shade was in the closet. He tried his best to imagine the situation outside the closet, but only by the sound of the conversation,
It is difficult for him to fully understand every scene.
"Of course the Aurora family does not have this tradition. I just saw a spider. Please allow me to apologize for my rudeness."
The witch said, this answer was very perfunctory.
"I've heard rumors about you and you like them"
Shade in the closet could almost imagine Lesia saying this with a nice frown on her face.
"There's nothing I can't say. I like pretty girls."
Shade could also imagine the witch smiling and saying this:
"Even me and a certain member of the Cavendish royal family have a beautiful waist."
For some reason, Miss Carina's appearance suddenly jumped into Shade's mind.
"I know, my eldest sister."
Shade guessed wrong, and the princess Lesiya said in a helpless tone was the thirty-three-year-old Catherine Cavendish, who was already married. The eldest princess of Delarion was born in 12 years old.
He married the eldest son of the then Royal Field Marshal Hermons Shorten.
The contemporary Cavendish royal family is flourishing, and King Larus III has strong fertility and desire. This is a very rare thing in the entire history of the Sixth Age. Shade can't even tell Lesia
How many brothers, sisters, and younger brothers he has? Of course, this is also related to the fact that he doesn't care about such things.
"I heard that their husband and wife are not on good terms, and that little Shuton has some quirks."
Lesia sighed, not knowing whether it was because she felt unworthy for her sister or because she was troubled by the marriage of a member of the royal family:
"If it weren't for the pressure from her father and Duke Shorten, they would have divorced long ago. The only elder who clearly supports her doing this is Carina."
Shade believed that Sylvie Avora was the same as him. They both made strange expressions because they accidentally heard the name of an acquaintance but couldn't show it.
The twelve-ringed witch probably had nothing to do, so she didn’t leave immediately after that. Instead, she chatted with Lesiya. Of course, Lesiya knew that there was someone locked up in the closet in the corner, but she couldn’t directly tell Afu
Miss Laura drove away and could only respond to the other party's questions absentmindedly, hoping that the other party would understand that she didn't really want to talk.
The witch should be able to understand Lesia's perfunctory attitude, but she just wouldn't leave.
With Shade's physical condition, it was no problem to stand still for several hours. But if he was standing in a strange posture in a closed space for half an hour, he would be a little unbearable.
Especially because of the scent in the closet, the urge to sneeze accumulated little by little. He tried to take a big breath, and tried to hold his nose and breathe through his mouth, but it had no effect.
Even if Shade could face the gods directly, he still had no way to deal with the primitive urge to sneeze.
What's even worse is that when Shade stood in the dark, a strange itching feeling actually appeared on his neck. He didn't want to make a big move, so he thought that the itching would stop after a while.
And when the itching feeling moved along his neck, making his skin crawl all over, Shade suddenly understood that it was not an itching, but a spider crawling along his neck.
"Oh~"
He groaned in pain, because his rich imagination and the feeling of hair all over his body made him want to immediately reach out and squash the insect crawling everywhere.
I was very worried that the spider would crawl into my ears, but the little thing just went up the neck, then passed through the side of the face, and slowly approached Shade's front face.
It crawled across the cheek with a clear purpose, and when Shade stretched out his hand to crush it to death, the insect actually accelerated and crawled under Shade's nostril.
The itching feeling combined with the fear of a spider crawling into his nose made Shade subconsciously want to blow air through his nose to blow the spider away. But this action accelerated the long-suffering sneeze even more.
impulse.
So, in the conflicting mood and panic, Shade finally couldn't help it.
"Ah sneeze~"
It felt really good to sneeze after having endured it for a long time. Shade even politely covered his mouth with his left hand by his collar to prevent contamination of the clothes in the wardrobe.
Although the rain outside is very loud, everyone in the room should be able to hear the sound in the closet as long as there is no ear problem.
Shade didn't get to the crack in the door in time to look out, so he couldn't see Lesia covering her forehead with a look of helplessness, nor could he see the witch's proud smile at this moment:
"I knew there was someone in the closet."
The witch with long curly brown hair smiled happily:
"She hid it well, but you ignored a very important issue. My nose is very sensitive and is very sensitive to the smell of the sea. And the person in the closet should have come in from outside the manor and been close to the seaside."
She was right, the old lighthouse was right on the beach.
"I can smell this smell, but people from outside should not come in. Your Highness, it seems that you have known about the ring sorcerer for a long time, and there is a good sorceress around you. Please ask her to come out. I want to see this very powerful sorcerer."
What does a capable girl look like?"
Lesia smiled helplessly:
"Well, now that you have discovered it, there is no need to hide it. Really, Miss Aurora, if you had discovered it earlier, you would not have wasted so much time chatting with me."
"It's really fun, isn't it?"
The witch asked, and then saw the maid move the door to the closet, and the closet was opened.
Lightning flashed outside the window, causing the area near the window to be shrouded in white light. The large shadow of the closet door obscured the figure walking out of the closet. When the lightning passed, he had already reached the light of the gas lamp.
"However, you guessed one fact wrong."
Lesia also smiled and looked back at Shade who looked helpless:
"He is not a girl, he is a twenty-one-year-old man."
Shade nodded and threw the skirt that had somehow wrapped around his arm into the closet behind him.
Looking up at Miss Sylvie Aurora, the astonished expression on the witch's face was completely unexpected. Seeing Shade up close, it was impossible for her not to notice this fact.
"Good evening, ladies."
Shade greeted, stood on the side of the sofa, and began to explain his identity:
"I am the lover of His Highness Lesia, Miss Aurora. We were having a tryst before you came in, so I am here."
He can reveal his identity as a ring wizard, but Lesia can't.
The witch retracted the surprise on her face, and moved at a very unladylike speed, as if she had stepped in front of Shade in one step. Then just as Shade expected, he grabbed Shade's wrist.
"How come every witch is like this?"
Complaining in his heart, Shade sniffed again, pulled out the badge from his collar with his free left hand, and then explained:
"Oh, well, now that you have discovered the identity of the Ring Warlock, I can only tell the truth."
He winked at Lesia who was holding back a smile:
"Ms. Aurora, I am actually Miss Carina's person. Look at this, this is the badge given to me by Miss Carina. I think you should be able to recognize that it is not an imitation. Miss Carina knows that Your Highness is very
I hate her, so I was sent to monitor His Highness. I am actually a liar that Miss Carina placed beside His Highness to deceive her feelings."
Lesia's current effort to suppress her laughter is probably about the same as Shade's effort not to sneeze just now.
He said to himself:
"Yes, I am the kind of liar in palace novels who is very good at winning the favor of ladies. All of this is Miss Carina's plan, and my direct boss is Miss Tifa Servit."
The badge was very clear under the light, the smile on Lesia's face was also very clear, and the witch's expression of wanting to laugh and wanting to be angry but holding back was also very clear.
Although he was surprised and even frightened by the appearance of Shad, with Miss Carina here, she would certainly not harm Shad.
"Shad Suellen Hamilton."
The witch forced a very fake smile on her face, gritted her teeth, and pronounced Shade's name in the common language of Delarion very accurately and clearly:
"Do you think the Avrolas family's business is so big that I won't pay attention to Tobesk's news?"
The golden eyes that were exactly the same as Miss Carina looked at Shade's face. This heroic lady with powerful eyes seemed to want to completely imprint Shade's appearance in her eyes.
She said softly:
"Now I understand that Carina suddenly tested me yesterday because she wanted to protect you."
