Sitting in the carriage, Ilucia breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the noise of the checkpoint fading away. The appearance of the officer just now almost made her think that she had been exposed.
Ilucia caressed her chest to calm down a little. She had signed a contract with the Scourge. Exposing the existence of the Scourge would make her soul irrecoverable.
After Miss Barov calmed down, she coldly ordered the attendants outside the car, "You must take care to cover yourselves, otherwise if the matter is exposed, we will not be able to reap the benefits.
Be careful of the Paladins of the Silver Hand and the people of the Church of Holy Light, they are much sharper than ordinary soldiers. "
The attendants were silent. Although they were nominally responsible for supervising Ilucia, Ilucia was their master now. They must protect the eldest lady of the Barov family without violating their ultimate goal. .
Fortunately, after entering West Wilder and heading to the Royal City of Lordaeron, although they passed several checkpoints and even encountered a patrolling Paladin team, they did not conduct a more careful search of the convoy.
The convoy of the Barov family drove straight into the royal city of Lordaeron, which gave Ilucia an unreal feeling.
Since the plague incident in Lordaeron, the kingdom's supervision of various roads has become much stricter. Ilucia originally thought that her operation this time would be quite troublesome, but now it seems that things are going too smoothly.
After entering the royal city, the convoy turned left and right, and finally entered a somewhat deserted high-end residential area - there were properties owned by the Barov family, which also allowed Ilucia to avoid the dilemma of living in a hotel.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. After all, the Barov family may be the richest noble in human history. Even if it is divided among all the human countries, it still has considerable financial resources.
At least the fiefdom of Keldaron, although it is in decline in the eyes of the great nobles, is still a resort for many princes and nobles, and many people have private villas on that pleasant island.
Ilucia specially selected a house in a deserted location to facilitate contact with the Dark Dean.
This property is managed by housekeepers and maids all year round, so the owner can move in at any time without having to worry about any problems, and even all food and clothing expenses are readily available.
Sitting on the main seat of the restaurant, with servants of the Barov family standing on both sides, Ilucia looked at the dinner in front of her that was too sumptuous for one person, and finally regained some of her feelings as a noble lady.
In Keldaron, under the gaze of the dark dean, no matter how luxurious and comfortable her life is, she can still feel the breathless pressure.
Now that she is far away from Keldaron, the restraints from the Scholomance School and the Scourge have weakened, allowing Ilucia to really relax a little.
After dinner, Ilucia was about to take a shower and change clothes before asking about her next job, but the old housekeeper reported to her.
"Miss, we have a distinguished guest coming."
Distinguished guest?
Ilucia was a little confused. She didn't make a big show of entering the royal city, and the old friends of the Barov family were also scattered. She really couldn't figure out who would come to visit her at this time.
But the old butler's next words made Ilucia look a little nervous.
"It's...a messenger from the Privy Council."
When he said this name, the old butler's usually calm expression became a little unbearable. Anyone living in the royal capital kept this mysterious department belonging to the royal family of Lordaeron secretive.
He was even a little worried about whether his master, whom he had not seen for a long time, had done something wrong outside, thus attracting the attention of the Privy Council.
The Barov family is a very sensitive name in Lordaeron. If Alex Barov had not been kind to the old butler, he would not have chosen to continue to manage the family's property in the royal city after Barov's decline. .
"Go...invite this distinguished messenger to come in."
Ilucia was a little uneasy. She didn't know why people from the Privy Council came to the door for no reason, but now she couldn't avoid it, otherwise there would be a real problem.
…
"The eldest lady of the Barov family has already settled in the royal city, and our envoy has gone to find her."
"I understand, Nathanos." Alsace held the pen and used the light of the oil lamp to process the documents in his hand. "Thank you for your hard work, but it seems that you don't have to go there in person. Your subordinates should be able to take on this task." Work."
The person standing in the shadow replied, "It's my duty, but I do have something else to say when I come here this time - I want to take a leave."
Alsace's pen paused, he looked up at the person in the shadow, and then buried his head again.
Even though he personally recruited this person into the Privy Council, Arthas still felt a little weird every time he saw this only human ranger lord.
"Taking leave...do you want to go back to your hometown?"
"No, my parents have taken good care of the farm, and I don't have to go back to disturb them and make them worry about me." Nathanos replied, "I want to... go to Quel'Thalas. "
Arthas nodded slightly, "I understand, you can go ahead. I won't give you a specific vacation time. Since you entered the Privy Council, you have been busy with work. If you take a vacation, Quel'Thalas will indeed be the same." A nice place.”
"Thank you for your tolerance and I will be back as soon as possible."
Nathanos had always been resolute, and after receiving Arthas's approval, the ranger lord was immediately ready to leave Arthas' study.
"By the way, one more thing. Who is the person sent to meet Ilucia?"
"Lillian, Lillian Voss."
Hearing this name, Arthas couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He naturally knew that this outstanding assassin worked in the Privy Council, but he didn't expect that fate would let her intersect with the Scholomance Academy again.
"I understand. I wish you a happy holiday - by the way, if you meet General Sylvanas, say hello for me."
After Nathanos heard Windrunner's name, he paused and left at a faster pace.
Arthas touched his stubbled chin playfully. This guy was usually cold and stern, but when he mentioned the Ranger General's name, he acted like a shy little girl.
Haha, it’s really interesting to have such subordinates.
Oh, I don't know if Miss Illusia can get used to Lilian's attitude. Arthas clearly remembered that Miss Voss's daily behavior was a little... different from ordinary people.
