Otome's Law of Ascension

Chapter 49

The blue imperial flag was planted in the flower bed in the center of the fountain. Under the strong sunlight at noon, Licia covered her eyebrows with her right hand, waiting for Dimitri to speak.

"Perhaps your crest has a different power." Dimitri's right finger dipped into the water of the fountain.The magic circle was replaced in time yesterday, and only the residential areas on the edge of Sufaluo City were seriously damaged.

Except for the traces of the wild boar running past, the city lord's mansion has not changed much.

"Yes." Licia nodded.

"Isn't it from the power of the Sun Goddess? Where did it come from, I think, it has something to do with your coat of arms." Dimitri pointed to his neck, and then to Licia. "Show me your coat of arms."

Licia lifted her blond hair, and the flower-shaped emblem on the side of her neck was imprinted on her snow-white skin, which had a strong visual impact.

Dimitri came very close, and Licia smelled something aggressive.

His shoulders were almost touching the tip of Licia's nose.

Dimitri lowered his head, but he didn't dare to look at Licia's neck. Instead, he lowered his eyes and looked at her who was showing innocent eyes.

The strong sun's rays fell on Dimitri's pale gold drooping eyelashes.

The sudden heavy breathing made Licia feel a little unnatural, and her heart was a little out of control.

'I can't be fooled, and now he's wondering if my power comes from the dark. Licia tried hard to keep herself sane, so she paid attention to Dimitri's favorability, which was already close to 50.00%.

This way allows Licia to treat him as an unreal character and quantify his emotions, which will calm Licia down.

Dimitri couldn't control the turbulent emotion in his chest, he could almost conclude that Licia's power was different from others.

She always has unexpected abilities and always attracts all his attention.

For example, now, his right hand was slowly taken out of the pool, and his wet fingers stroked Licia's temple hair.

Licia couldn't help shaking, and Dimitri's right hand immediately supported her head that was about to turn sideways.

"It's just a flower." The young heir to the empire took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and opened them again.

"I don't know why, Your Highness, I have been loyal to the Sun Goddess from the moment I was born." Licia took a step back.

Dimitri withdrew his hands behind his back. "Before the problem is clarified, at least don't let other people know that you can't activate the Goddess Circle."

He took another step forward and looked at Licia with a frown. Although his heart fluctuated greatly, Dimitri still spoke in a very cold voice. "What, your movements and eyes, are you afraid that I will kiss you? Licia, you will inherit the title of duke in the future. Don't pay attention to love all day long and read more."

After Dimitri finished speaking, he coughed twice, still with his hands behind his back, left the fountain very unnaturally, and walked towards the castle.

Licia was puzzled. 'Obviously he meant it himself! ! '

About 50 soldiers were sent from the city upstream of Sufaro, and the lord of the city was imprisoned in his bedroom.

Pierrot, the son of the city lord who turned into a wild boar, ran off to nowhere. He searched the city for a long time, but he was nowhere to be found.

Even Troy can't divine Pierrot's existence.

"I don't smell any breath, Your Highness." The general of Sufaluo's garrison with the coat of arms of the hound is a grey-haired male, he is hale and hearty, wearing a gray-brown suede coat, and the silver button on the chest is polished brightly.

Even trying to find Pierrot by smell was unsuccessful.

"However, this must be a conspiracy against you." Although Bob, who is over [-] years old, is a nobleman, the title of viscount in his family has not been passed on to him. Because the city lord did not act, he failed to achieve his great revenge in this life.

This happened to rekindle Bob's long-cooled heart.

Someone must be bad for the empire, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince needs him, and the empire also needs him.

"Your Highness, but I found the footprints of the wild boar man. Even though it is not so obvious after being washed by the rain, I still found a string of footprints next to a studio." Bob said.

When Licia heard about the studio, she felt that it was a little too reasonable. "What's the situation in the studio?" She couldn't help interjecting.

"This is a strange place. It's very normal. There are no traces or smells. The owner of the studio said that after he noticed something strange in the city last night, he kept the door closed. The rain was too loud and he didn't hear footsteps. There is no intersection between the castellan's family." Although Bob didn't understand why a lady would interrupt at such a moment, he was about to make this point.

Dimitri smiled, appreciating the seriousness of the imperial veteran. "Duke Troy, if you have time, go with Mr. Bob to the place where the footprints were found."

Licia came back to her senses and said immediately. "I'll go as well."

Dimitri, who originally planned to take her to the magic circle, also answered the call. "Me too."

On both sides of the road in Sufaluo, the expressions of the people did not look like they were frightened last night.

The possibility of being infested by alien beasts has already become the norm in this small town.

"Fish! Fruit! Fish!" The words they yelled were not as diverse as those on Shanglan Street, and the eyes of the small vendors revealed exhaustion.

"To be honest, I think we have gained nothing from this trip." Troy likes to strike up a conversation with beautiful girls, which makes him feel that no matter how difficult life is, it is sweet.

"Have confidence in yourself, Mr. Troy." Compared to talking to Dimitri, Licia felt it was easier to chat with a playboy like Troy.

"Oh, since you've said that, I have no reason not to believe in myself, right?" Troy got a flower out of nowhere and handed it to Licia. "Thank you for your concern."

"Troy, you have Viscount Fudomi." A hand took the flower before Lycia. "Is it right in front?"

Dimitri pretended nothing happened and asked Bob who had just stopped.

Licia and Troy smiled at each other.

The studio is a two-story wooden structure, and there are chickens running around at the door, and children sitting on the ground playing.

Dimitri picked up the sign hanging at the door with a broken hemp rope. "Sun Studio. Very common name."

"Master officer, do you want to come in for some hot tea?" A woman in a coarse cloth apron grabbed the running child and looked at Lizia and her party with a sad face.

Troy took a step forward, facing such a vicissitudes of life face, he swallowed the humorous words. "Madam, did you really stay in the house last night and didn't see any other creatures? There is nothing unusual in the store."

He was predicting what the woman would do after they left.

"No, sir. I swear." She even looked at Troy with sincere eyes, and then at Bob after a while. "Master officer, I beg you, life is hard enough, we can hardly afford the rent, please don't come over again and again, you have scared away several guests in the morning."
