"...There is nothing unusual about it."
Adam looked at the Night Goddess and "Bethel" with obviously more wary eyes.
Able to wash away the pollution of the "Fallen Mother Goddess"...
——Could it be that the goddess of the night has gone one step further and begun to prepare for promotion to the old days?
…
Klein wore a crystal monocle over his left eye and chatted relaxedly with several writers and poets in front of him. Since Gao Wei Abraham, who holds a title, brought him here, Klein's seat was at the front of the third floor, closer to the second floor of the banquet.
Suddenly, Klein caught a glimpse of a young man hurriedly passing by him and smiled. He hurried past, and just as the two were about to pass each other, Klein pushed up his single-sided glasses and made a strange arc at the corner of his mouth.
The poet-like young man was startled for a moment, showed a slightly forced smile, and left quickly. After Klein took the food, he returned to the guests who were chatting with him.
A writer watched Klein greet the poet-looking young man and immediately joked:
"Professor Moriarty, why didn't you ask him to come over when you met an acquaintance?"
Klein smiled and replied with very skilled etiquette: "Actually, he and I don't know each other."
"But don't you think he looks like a poet? I think he must have written many beautiful poems."
"Yes." A writer said eloquently: "You can tell a person's profession and accomplishments from his appearance. Just like the poet just now, I can tell you just by meeting him. From that, I can tell that he should be good at writing poetry..."
Then can you tell that I am an activist of the Aurora Society... Klein complained in his heart while echoing this family. Klein suddenly had some admiration for this family. After all, the two sentences he just said were lies, because this young man was Leonard who hurried over.
At this time, Leonard was complaining to Pales in his mind:
"Old man, can you please stop being so surprised? What happened to you today? I was almost exposed just now - what does that monocle represent that makes you so scared?"
He speculated: "Are you afraid of the 'Duke Amon' that the person mentioned before? Is he the Duke of which country? Is he also an Extraordinary?"
"..." Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Pales sighed and could only slowly tell Leonard the information about Amon.
Pales originally didn't want Leonard to know about this matter. After all, Pales knew that according to Leonard's character, he would definitely make mistakes when meeting Amon in the future because of knowing this matter.
He saw two people who looked like Amon in succession today, and Leonard now knew only a little about Amon's information. Now poor Pales can only hope that Leonard, who knows the horror of Amon, will be more careful...
…
At the dance, Klein was sitting in his seat, slowly cutting the tender and juicy steak on the plate, while chatting relaxedly with the people around him. He was holding on to the time and felt that Miss Justice was about to arrive at the party on their floor...
According to what Audrey said before, she will try to strike up a conversation with Professor Moriarty’s literary circle to let more people—including nobles—pay attention to Professor Moriarty. Audrey can't do anything about the rest, it all depends on Professor Moriarty's performance.
After all, Audrey had never thought that her banquet would be so... grand. This made her herself feel a little confused when she first arrived, looking at the banquet in front of her. Whether it was the few nobles in the center or the scale of the banquet, it was even comparable to banquets held by some dukes.
Audrey held up the hem of her skirt, and the smile on her face had made her muscles sore from maintaining it for a long time. Earl Hall on the side had a smile on his face, walking beside his daughter, talking softly to his child.
"Audrey, are you tired? We have already said hello to the nobles before. Now you don't have to go see these civilians..." Audrey's brother, Hibbert Hall, said to the side He said softly to his sister. Although Audrey wanted to rest, she still endured the fatigue and shook her head when she thought of Mr. "White Tower"'s mission.
"No need, Hibbert." Audrey said to her brother and father in her sweet voice: "I'm not very tired... Well, I know you still have to talk to them."
"Besides, how can I be tired when I have my dear brother and the handsome Earl Hall by my side?"
"Haha..." Hibbert on the side couldn't help but chuckled: "It seems that our most beautiful little gem has grown up. Alfred will definitely be surprised when he comes back and sees you like this. ?”
"He must have never thought that Audrey, who likes to study mysticism, would be no longer interested in mysticism. Now she knows how to understand her brother!"
After hearing this, Earl Hall's expression suddenly became a little strange. He glanced at Hibbert, who was still in the dark and didn't know that Audrey was now an Extraordinary.
"Huh? Does that mean that I was immature before?" Taking advantage of the opportunity when no one was around, Audrey raised her eyebrows and said softly to Hibbert, her cheeks slightly bulging, like It's a little pufferfish ready to go. Seeing this, Hibbert immediately changed the topic:
"Haha... No, no. Ahem, we'll talk about it later, Audrey, we're almost there."
Hibbert said to Audrey, and they had already walked along the dance seats to the dance floor on the third floor. The one sitting at the front of the dance floor was Klein, who was brought over by Gao Wei.
coming……
Audrey muttered silently in her mind, looking at "Professor Moriarty" whom she had seen in photos before; while Audrey looked at Klein, Klein was also observing her.
Wearing clothes that look like works of art, beside her is Earl Hall and the Earl's eldest son Hibbert... Although Gao Wei and I had roughly guessed the identity of Miss Justice before, I didn't expect that she would do it for Gao Wei. Wei's commission can produce such a grand banquet...
It seems that Miss "Justice"'s family is richer than I thought!
Klein, who had no concrete concept of large sums of money, did not notice the unusual specifications of this banquet. He just complained in his heart while silently sizing up Audrey.
Klein looked at Audrey quietly and at Miss Justice. Looking at Earl Hall next to Audrey, whose whole body was filled with the majesty of a superior, Klein suddenly swallowed nervously.
He must not let his "Fool" vest be stripped off. At most... ahem, at most, Miss Justice will feel that she is Mr. "Fool"'s favored one! You must not reveal your identity, otherwise Mr. Fool will be disgraced!
"Don't be nervous, young man."
Earl Hall looked at Klein with gentle eyes. Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Klein: "I heard about you from my friend, Professor Moriarty. My friend I once praised you as a good teacher, a conscientious scholar, and a gentle but sharp professor."
"Then it's Earl Hall's compliment." Klein smiled awkwardly, and when he heard such praise, he was immediately at a loss. Audrey and Hibbert on the other side were a little surprised, and for a moment they didn't know why their father had such high expectations for the young professor in front of him.
Audrey, who was originally prepared to find an opportunity to introduce "Professor Moriarty" to other minor nobles, was particularly surprised. Before, she was afraid that the gentleman whom Mr. "White Tower" entrusted her to bring into the aristocratic circle did not have real talent and knowledge. Now it seems that even if Audrey does not intervene, this professor is very likely to rely on his own ability to win over His Majesty the King. I was rewarded by a baron in front of me!
The reason why "Professor Moriarty" was praised by Earl Hall was Prince Edsac.
In the past few weeks, Klein took the time to give several lessons to Prince Edsac's lover, the woman who was most likely the "Desperate Nightingale". During class time, Prince Edsac had been sitting nearby and listening. So much so that he even learned a lot from Klein's step-by-step, step-by-step teaching method while passing time in lectures.
As a member of the royal family, Prince Edsac is naturally proficient in various subjects. But Klein's teaching method allowed the prince to come up with many novel ways to deal with other things - after all, this is the crystallization of wisdom from countless teachers in the old era. At this time, Klein also rarely stood up to the giants. On his shoulders, he imitated the senior traveler and made a calligraphy copy.
After hearing Prince Edsac's praise of Professor Moriarty, Earl Hall also made preparations to express some goodwill to Professor Moriarty.
After Audrey and his group left, Klein, who had just been praised, was still a little confused, but the people around him had already swarmed around him, scrambling to establish a good relationship with this new generation of professors.
Not far away, Fors Wall sat lazily on a chair and took a small sip of the red wine in his glass. I don't know why, but she was sitting upright, but the chair felt like a sofa when she sat on it. A man in formal clothes next to her asked: "Ms. Wall, don't you go over there and get to know the professor?"
who is this?
Miss Xianyu raised her head and glanced at the curly-haired young man beside her. The young man's clothes were neatly dressed, his skin looked fairer, and he looked elegant and polite. Forsi put down the small cake in his hand, restrained his tone and said:
"I think instead of wasting your energy trying to make friends with someone who is famous but doesn't know you at all. It's better to think about what to write in the next book. There are always some things that you can't follow the trend. After all, no one will Just knowing him will help you when you need help."
"That's it..." The young man pinched his eye sockets and said with some distress: "Originally, I thought that those people who were eager to find the professor would definitely be able to get to know the professor since they went there. Now, It seems that I still haven’t learned enough and I don’t understand what they are thinking..."
After saying that, the young man smacked his lips: "Then why do you still do things like this that can't bring you any benefits?"
"This is normal." Forsi looked at the innocent young man in front of him who seemed to have just entered society and didn't know much about the world. He couldn't help but comforted: "Many people think of multiple friends and multiple paths. In fact, they don't I don’t plan to get anything in return, I’m just expressing my attitude now. But sometimes this kind of thing is thankless, so I’m too lazy to do it.”
"I understand." The young man said seriously: "You think that the rewards from this situation may not be as much as what you pay, so you are not prepared to get to know those who may be helpful to you; but some people themselves are not aware of this situation. It feels like the same thing but different. Interesting, I understand. Thank you for your guidance. What is your name?"
In fact, I'm just too lazy to go there, why are you so solemn... Forsi thought with a guilty conscience. Seeing that the young man in front of him was so polite, Forsi said implicitly: "Forsi."
"Forth Wall, a family."
"Okay, thank you, Miss Wall. I feel that I have benefited a lot from communicating with you." The young man shook hands with Forsi's right hand in a ceremonial manner:
"Just call me Amon."
Amon? The name doesn't look like a local from Loen Kingdom...is it the name of Intis or somewhere else?
Forsi thought divergently and didn't pay attention. He just watched the young man named "Amon" leave.
…
I really want to parasitize her and see what she is thinking... Amon's thinking is a little divergent. Under the guidance of Gao Wei, he became somewhat interested in the human nature that he had always considered useless. In order to learn what human nature is, he deliberately parasitized a writer who did not have a title but received an invitation to attend the party.
In order not to be discovered by the Extraordinaries of Night and Storm, Amon also deliberately lowered his sequence and disguised himself as an ordinary person without extraordinary abilities. He had just been enthusiastically analyzing those people who flocked to Professor Moriarty because of a few words, but he felt frustrated under Forsi's analysis.
Therefore, this Amon is ready to listen to his own body's opinion and go deep into the grassroots to investigate what human nature is - of course, his body strictly prohibits him from using extraordinary abilities.
So, Amon decided to meet "Professor Moriarty" personally to see what kind of magic this young man had.
Amon pushed up his monocle and smiled happily.
