Chapter 165: Invitation to Dinner, Container of Arrival
The dim moonlight illuminated the stone buildings on both sides of the street, and there were still claw marks and bloodstains on one wall.
On the blood-stained stone road, the short-haired beauty took out a white handkerchief from her breeches pocket, wiped the blood on her hands, and immediately sheathed the swift sword.
Viscount June is known as the ‘red rose of the Lannister family’, and the family’s emblem is a blooming red rose.
June follows the guidance of the Lannister family motto: retribution must be retaliated, and kindness will be repaid twice as much.
'Yeats arrived in time, undoubtedly saving my life and Elsa's...'
June remembered this kindness silently, her golden eyes flickered slightly, and she whispered:
"Baron Yeats, you said you have guessed who the murderer is, can you tell me the results?"
"The werewolf who attacked Elsa will most likely appear during the exploration of the Moon God ruins. "Yeats deduced, "In addition, this is most likely a case of using deformation to frame someone up."
"Transfiguration?" A trace of surprise flashed across June's eyes.
Yeats nodded and said: "But at present, I don't have conclusive evidence. Taking action rashly will only alert the enemy, so I plan to go to the Moon God ruins in person."
"Why did your Excellency the Baron risk his life? Danger?" June was a little confused. In her opinion, Yeats seemed to have no motive to track down the murderer.
Yeats had known that June would ask this question, and said calmly: "Baron Crane and I are working together to track down the murderer who committed many murders in the college. I suspect that the murderer is related to the werewolf who attacked Elsa. It's the same person, so there is a need to continue tracing."
June was startled, and looked at Yeats with a hint of favor.
Although Elsa admires him, to be fair, such a talented poet who pursues justice is indeed worthy of close friendship!
"The werewolf's attack on Elsa and I has violated the common interests of the Lannister and Vic families. I will use my ability to investigate."
June looked coldly and raised his pointed head. He lowered his chin, his golden eyes reflected the figure of the silver-haired boy, and said seriously:
"In addition, I will also prepare a thank you gift for His Excellency the Baron as soon as possible to repay your kindness for the timely rescue just now!"
Yeats nodded slightly, thinking that the murderer's ultimate goal was probably to hold a sacrificial ceremony at the Moon God ruins.
If the murderer is what he expected, then with his performance in catching the murderer, it would be a matter of course for Snow Owl to obtain a place in the Mage Academy's trial.
The night wind carried a desolate feeling as it blew through the blood-smelling streets. June's cheeks were still stained with blood. She pushed aside her short hair from her forehead and glanced at the silver-haired boy.
“Baron Yeats... seems to be able to naturally bring a sense of security to others.”
June thought to herself, “Before, I regarded him as a competitor, but I really underestimated this baron. Take it into consideration..."
At this time, Elsa got off the carriage and looked at the figure in the pool of blood. Her green eyes were full of sadness. She immediately raised her eyes to look at Yeats and said softly:
"Lord Baron, thank you for your rescue...I, I really didn't expect that such an accident would happen..."
By the second half of the words, Elsa was choked up, took out her handkerchief, covered her face and cried.
Elsa is new to the world. Compared to June, a sonorous rose, she is like a white rose raised in a greenhouse. She grew up in the pampering of Duke Vic.
Yeats even suspected that this was the first time she saw the deceased.
"Don't worry, there will be a satisfactory explanation for this matter." Yeats paused and said, "It's already getting late, how come you two are here late at night?"
Elsa took out an exquisite invitation letter from her bag, her green eyes filled with mist, and whispered:
"My father...invites you to attend a dinner at Vic Manor in Jianhe County in the future..."
Elsa said intermittently:
"I want to send you a letter personally to express my gratitude. Sincerity, so I came to see you as soon as possible, but I didn’t expect..."
Yeats was startled.
This is a proactive overture from Duke Vic, and there is nothing wrong with attending the dinner.
Yeats accepted the envelope and immediately looked around at the pair of red and white roses, June and Elsa, and said:
"I have contacted Mr. Crane to handle this matter. You two have just been attacked and must be stabilized." It’s better to come to my palace first, what do you two think?”
Elsa naturally has no objection.
June nodded slightly and said: "Then don't bother your Excellency, Baron..."
Not long after, Crane arrived with several followers and learned about the werewolf attack from Yeats. The news showed a strange look.
"Werewolf?"
"We previously inferred that the murderer was a vampire, and it was most likely a smoke bomb deliberately released by the murderer." Yeats speculated, "Even the werewolf may not be the murderer's true identity."
Klan's eyes flashed slightly and he said: "You mean, the murderer used a method similar to mage transformation or druid transformation?"
"There is another possibility." Yeats Said, "This is really a cursed werewolf. He usually disguises himself as a human and lurks in Jianhe University."
"The scope of the suspect's investigation has suddenly narrowed a lot." Crane said, "You are indeed of great help, Lord Yeats!" Yeats nodded: "If you find anything new, please contact me via text message, Baron Crane, and I will go back to the palace first."
Klan's eyes were stunned, and he switched to the communication technique and said: "Elsa Vick and Viscount June are also returning to the palace with you?"
Yeats asked in confusion. : "Is there any problem?"
Klan looked solemn, shook his head, and thought:
"Baron Yeats seems to be unmarried... no matter who his marriage partner is. Either party will have a great impact on the current situation of the Golden Lion Kingdom.”
Immediately, Crane ordered his entourage to deal with the blood stains at the scene to avoid causing panic at dawn.
Yeats, Gray and others returned to the palace.
On the banks of the Jian River, the palace is brightly lit.
Yeats turned over and dismounted, looked back at June and Elsa who were riding a horse behind him, and said: "You two wait in the hall for a while, I will prepare some snacks."
< br>Gray followed Yeats and whispered:
"Yeats, what is the origin of that werewolf just now? How dare you attack the daughter of the Duke of Vic?"
Yeats muttered: "The Vic family and the Lannister family are golden The two ancient bloodlines of lions, it is said that their ancestors were the Templar Knights of the Great Lorraine. With Elsa's bloodline, it can be used as a container to carry the coming of the evil god..."
"Container?" Gray exclaimed softly. , "It won't be like the time in Pan's Labyrinth. Is it the apostle who is causing trouble?"
Yeats frowned slightly and said to himself: "Last time Sariel only had one pair of eyes, there were six rings. If the master's breath were to obtain a container that could carry his power, the consequences would be disastrous."
"So I am going to the Moon God Ruins," Yeats said:
"Soon it will be a full moon night, which is also the most suitable time to hold the apostle's advent ceremony. I plan to take this opportunity to destroy the ceremony and catch the real culprit!"
"What about now?" Lei tilted her head.
"Now?"
Yeats glanced at the salmon on the chopping board and murmured:
"Let's have a midnight snack now..."
< br>
Creamy salmon roe and lemon-flavored grilled salmon. The servant brought these two dishes and placed them on the long dining table.
Elsa had a loss of appetite and seemed to lack interest in these two dishes that were both delicious and delicious.
June had just experienced a battle, and her physical strength was severely exhausted. She was in urgent need of replenishing energy. She thanked Yeats and then forked a piece of salmon meat to taste.
"Well..." June was stunned, her eyes slightly startled.
Culinarians can use magic-rich materials to make food more delicious and add buffing effects to the food.
This salmon not only tastes delicious, but also makes June feel that her physical strength is recovering quickly!
"Baron Yeats, should you have a professional gourmet chef in your palace?" June's eyes flickered, wanting to test Yeats's tone and wondering if he could get this gourmet chef to serve him. Work for yourself.
After all, gourmet chefs and potion masters are extremely valuable professional talents. If you can raise your attainments to expert level or above, you will be treated as a distinguished guest no matter which family you go to!
“I am the gourmet chef.” Yeats smiled and said, “Viscount June, are these two dishes delicious?”
Joune looked shocked.
Aren't you the chosen poet?
Have you read the recipes instead of the poetry collection? !
Elsa heard that Baron Yeats cooked it himself. A glimmer of light flashed in her eyes as green as lake water. She picked up the knife and fork and tasted the grilled salmon elegantly.
The tender and juicy salmon tastes delicious, and the grilled skin is crispy. The rich taste lingers on the tip of her tongue, and her sadness is relieved.
"June, he is really a gourmet..." Elsa leaned towards June and said softly.
"Indeed." June sensed the magic aura remaining in the food, her eyes flickered, and she murmured, "Being able to use ordinary ingredients and supplementary ingredients to create an effect similar to that of a magic potion... Yeats, a gourmet chef, The attainments are probably extraordinary!”
Elsa nodded silently. After experiencing the crisis just now, her temperament also changed a little.
"It is not enough to worship Baron Yeats, I must aim at him and keep learning."
Elsa lowered her head and thought to herself: "We will meet him again in the future. In a similar situation, I can at least not be a drag on Baron Yeats and June..."
*
In the dim moonlight, a thick-haired monster stumbled into the end of the alley, knocked over the barrel, and sat against the wall to breathe.
"Dark vision..." The werewolf gasped, his blood-red eyes filled with disbelief, and said hoarsely to himself, "Is that Mara's teaching goal this week?"
Immediately , the werewolf shook his head, and the figure of the silver-haired boy seemed to appear in front of him, gritted his teeth and said:
"It's rare to find a suitable container, but be disrupted by him... No, I must remove it at all costs. The curse.”
“I don’t want to live in the pain of distortion day and night!”
The werewolf looked up at the dim moon in the sky, which was only a corner away from being full. A suppressed growl came from its throat, the urge to thirst for blood surged into its brain, and its eyes were bloodshot.
"Berlandi's Yeats, your bloodline is also an ideal container!"
