He was stunned for two to three seconds.
Not only Liz, but also Lake, who was originally planning to watch the scene of the rich young lady mocking the country bumpkin mage.
At this moment, the guest mage of the Cecil family looked at the Earl’s daughter, the Lady Liz whom he had been dreaming of at night. His hands were held together by Vivian, and it was as if he had been petrified.
On the other side, finally.
The blankness in her brain gradually disappeared as she felt the delicate touch and warmth that she had not felt in a long time.
Only then did Liz come back to her senses and realize what had happened.
Immediately after.
“You… What are you doing!” The Earl’s daughter blushed instantly.
Lissy was shy, but there was a hint of a deeper fear and fear of something. The girl quickly pulled her hand back from Vivian’s small palm. “Ah, right… I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I… I was a little too happy…
Mm… I’m sorry…”
Vivian seemed to have come back to her senses and realized what she had done subconsciously. She immediately turned into a heartless apology machine again.
“You… You!” This time, Lissy did not accuse Vivian.
She was so angry that she didn’t even know what to say. A small part of her anger was directed at Vivian, but most of it was directed at herself.
At this moment, Butler Robert was pretending to be blind at the side with a kind face. He knew that for some reason, his miss actually lacked company.
Oh, of course, since Vivian was a man, it was not kindness but cruelty. Robert could guarantee that Vivian would not walk out of the castle alive today.
Fortunately, under such an embarrassing situation.
A clear voice from the top of the castle broke the awkwardness.
“Eh? Robert! I was wondering why it was so lively downstairs. So it was you guys. Haha, what a coincidence. I was thinking about estimating the time. You guys should have arrived by now. I was just about to go downstairs to welcome you!
A tall and handsome man in a black tuxedo walked down the stairs.
Upon seeing the man, Butler Robert and Mage Lake immediately bowed respectfully and greeted,”
“Earl.”
Vivian also reacted at this time and quickly followed suit.
“Sigh! How many times have I said it? In our own family, we don’t have to follow the pedantic ways of other nobles. ”
Count Sisre waved his hand, his face full of helplessness.
Compared to the other three, Liz, as her biological daughter, was much more relaxed.
“Father!” The young girl happily went straight into Count Sisre’s arms.
The Earl also carried his daughter with a smile on his face. He spun her around in the air before putting her down.
Then, as he stroked her blonde hair, he joked,”
“Our Liz has really grown up. Father can’t even carry you anymore!
“Only… No! I’ve been losing weight recently!
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the earl’s evil smile. She immediately reacted and blushed again.
“Humph! I’m ignoring you!”
“Hahaha… Eh?” Earl Sisl was still immersed in his interaction with his daughter, but suddenly, his straight nose twitched a few times.
In an instant, a strange look flashed across the Count’s eyes. Immediately after, the Count’s gaze landed on a certain part of Liz’s leg.
“Are you hurt?” Count Sisre half-squatted down and moved away the hem of Liz’s dress that was deliberately covering her wound, pretending that she had accidentally discovered it.
“Ah… It’s just that I accidentally scratched it and it’s just a little cut. It’s fine, Father.
Liz obviously didn’t expect her father to notice such a small wound. She panicked and wanted to cover it up again.
But…
“Is that so…
Count Sisre nodded and did not say anything else.
However, he pressed down on Liz’s writhing body. Immediately after, the earl quickly took out a white handkerchief from his pocket and gently wiped his daughter’s wound.
He wiped the small amount of blood that had not been cleaned on the wound onto the handkerchief. The originally white handkerchief suddenly had a few red spots in the center.
“Yes, that’s good. I don’t want my precious daughter to leave a scar.”
Count Sisre stood up with a smile on his face again. Just as Butler Robert was about to open his mouth and ask for the bloodstained and dirtied handkerchief to be thrown away, he took it back without leaving a trace.
“Father, you’re really too much. I’m not a child anymore…”
Liz hurriedly tidied up her dress as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden. She kept muttering as if she felt that her father was too doting on her with so many outsiders watching.
‘ Robert, have you seen me? I’m being despised. Sigh, back when Liz was still young, I…”
“Father!”
Seeing that Count Sisre was about to say something even more embarrassing, Liz stomped her foot in anger.
“Haha, alright, alright. I won’t tease you anymore. Ah! How rude. Liz, it’s all your fault. I almost forgot that we still have an honored guest here.” The tall and sturdy Earl finally shifted his gaze to the little girl.
“Yes… Miss Vivian, right?”
“Robert had Lake send me a magic message about you. On behalf of the Sisre
family, I am honored to have you as a guest in our castle. ”
Count Sisre spoke with a sincere tone and even made a standard aristocratic salute, extending his hand to Vivian in a friendly manner.
“Where…No, no, it should be…l should be the one who’s very grateful to Mr. Robert for inviting me. “Vivian kept shaking her head and shook hands with the count.
Time did not leave too much of a mark on Count Sisre’s body. Instead, it had added a lot of maturity to him. In addition, from his every move just now, he had displayed a straightforward and easy-going personality. It was difficult not to have a good impression of him.
At least for Vivian, it had completely changed the little girl’s imagination of the noble lords in the big city.
“Haha, alright, let’s not stand in the corridor.
“Robert, bring them to my study first. I’ve already asked the servants to prepare refreshments.
He watched as Vivian and the rest followed Robert up the stairs and disappeared.
The rich expression on Count Sisre’s face quickly disappeared.
He pressed his hand against his chest, his palm trembling uncontrollably.
In the end, he could no longer endure it.
The Earl’s figure flashed into a bathroom in the corridor. He staggered into the door and locked it tightly.
Next, the Earl carefully took out the blood-stained handkerchief with his trembling hands as if he was looking at a treasure.
“Ah… Liz…”
“Just a little bit more, just a little bit more…”
“I can already feel it. In the forest in the north, our true God has already made a move. He has sent the Oracles to this land. They are moving, moving! I have a premonition I’ll be quick, right away! I will be able to meet my compatriots. They are about to arrive at Fire Code City!
‘I originally thought that I would have to wait a few more months, but if I could take this opportunity to contact the Oracle and refine my divinity with the help of the Oracle, then… When the time comes…
‘ Liz, my dear daughter, you came from your mother’s half of flesh and blood, your mother’s talent, and your abilities. They will all be mine, all mine.
Hahahahaha!!!
“Wuwuwu…”
Sitting on the toilet bowl, Count Sisre covered his crazily distorted face with a handkerchief.
He held the blood of Liz in the center to the tip of his nose and kept taking deep breaths.
At the same time, the shadows of countless pitch-black hands that represented the Fallen Abyss appeared behind the Earl. They twisted and swayed together with the Earl’s body.
However…
This state came to an abrupt end in the next moment.
All of a sudden, the pitch-black hands behind the earl seemed to have sensed something. They stopped all their movements and pointed to another cubicle on the left.
Immediately after, a terrifying aura that made one’s hair stand on end suddenly erupted from Count Sisre’s body.
“Who is it?”
He didn’t choose to rush out. Instead, he violently broke the mezzanines between the two cubicles.
But…
It was not just the other cubicle. The entire bathroom was empty except for him. There seemed to be no one else.
It was the first time Count Sisre’s expression was so dark and terrifying..
