Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 46 You don't have to hide it, we all understand
As time passed, Earl Hall's eyes towards Ember became more and more kind.

It's like a benevolent elder looking at a junior who is good enough in every aspect, good enough for him to recognize.

In terms of status, although the title of viscount is lower, at least he has already entered the ranks of nobles.

Furthermore, Ember is at least a genuine Viscount, not the heir to the Viscount.

In terms of ability, he was already a Nighthawk of the Church of Evernight at a young age.

And judging from his concealed identity and experience, he is obviously closely related to the middle or even the upper level of the Church of Evernight.

Coming to Backlund from Cold Winter County also obviously had an unknown purpose.

Earl Hall has no intention of exploring what this purpose is, he just needs to know Ember's status is extraordinary.

therefore.

Ember made Earl Hall nod frequently and showed approval no matter in terms of knowledge, style of conversation or ability.

Although there is still a little displeasure with embers cutting first and playing later, the overall attitude has changed.

And at this moment, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

"Bang Bang~"

"Come in."

Ember looked towards the door subconsciously, and a blond, blue-eyed, beautiful and graceful lady pushed the door in, with a decent smile on her face, she joked, "Gentlemen, I didn't mean to disturb your conversation. But now Lunch time, I think you can have your lunch before continuing."

"Sorry, Caitlin."

Earl Hall smiled wryly, and then introduced to Ember, "This is my wife, Caitlin, and this is Viscount Ash Black. Ash, I'm sorry to keep you for so long, and you will stay as compensation How about having lunch with us?"

"It's my pleasure."

Ember stood up and bowed slightly to the countess, then accepted Earl Hall's invitation with a smile, paused and said, "But before that, I think I need to go to the bathroom first."

"Oh, look at my brain."

Earl Hall patted his head in frustration, and the Countess quickly ordered, "Laura, take Viscount Black to the bathroom."

Laura, the Countess' personal maid, dressed in a maid outfit, with long brown hair and brown eyes, saluted respectfully, and led Ember towards the washroom.

The Earl and Countess walked towards the restaurant.

"How about it?"

The Countess suddenly asked inexplicably.

"A fine young man."

The count nodded slightly, and said approvingly, "The viscount's title is not low, and he is also closely related to the Church of Evernight."

Although she didn't say it explicitly, the countess could see how much her husband valued that young man.

"It doesn't look too bad."

The countess frowned slightly, and murmured, "It's just that this seems to be somewhat different from Anne's description. Could it be his disguise?"

Annie is Audrey's personal maid, and in her description, although her words are quite restrained and considered.

But the countess could also hear one thing—

That is a little boy who eats soft rice.

But what my husband said seemed to completely overturn this conjecture.

"will not."

The count pointed to his eyes, and said without hesitation, "If everything he showed was really a disguise, it would be impossible to deceive my eyes. My dear, you have to trust my eyes."

"Of course I believe you."

The countess sighed softly, her tone still a bit worried, "But you also know that Anne will not lie, especially in such matters, and we have already had Extraordinary people verify it, haven't we?"

"This……"

The count frowned tightly, unable to figure out the key to this. After pondering for a moment, he said, "This may be a misunderstanding, or there may be some other secret. But you don't need to worry, I think we will know all about it soon. the truth."

"makes sense."

The countess nodded slightly, looking forward.

On the long table in the restaurant, Audrey stood up when she saw the two of them.

"Dad, Mom."

Audrey greeted with a sweet smile, and opened the chair beside the countess.

"No, honey."

The Countess smiled and said, "Not today."

"Eh?"

Audrey was a little puzzled.

There was an obvious look of teasing and teasing in the mother's eyes.

It doesn't seem like a bad thing, is there someone important to sit next to you?
Is my brother back?
Audrey's brain was running fast, and she began to guess who was coming.

She even speculated that it might be a certain prince——

This may be a blind date planned by her mother for herself, even though she is not yet an adult.

But soon, Audrey's brain stopped functioning.

Because she saw a familiar figure at the entrance of the restaurant.

"Lord Hall, Lady Catelyn."

Ember greeted one by one, and finally looked at Audrey, "And Miss Audrey."

"Good day, Viscount Black."

Audrey's expression froze for a moment, but then she quickly reacted and responded in a low voice.

She didn't know why Ash was here.

Did you take the initiative to visit?Or are you invited?

Audrey didn't know the reason, but she still instinctively tried to show the illusion of 'I'm not familiar with him' in front of her parents.

However, with her heart in a mess, she didn't notice that the expressions of Bai Jue and Countess became playful at the same time when they heard her address.

"Sit down, Ash."

Earl Hall sat on the main seat and greeted with a smile.

Ember was not pretentious either, she pulled out a chair and was about to sit down.

"No, not that."

Earl Hall shook his head, and pointed to the side, "Sit here, get closer."

"..."

Ash had a slightly surprised expression, and looked at Earl Hall strangely.

But he didn't refuse, adhering to the concept of the guest as he pleases, and sat down in the position pointed by Earl Hall.

And by coincidence.

This seat is just next to Audrey.

The Countess who was supposed to sit here did not sit on the other side of Audrey, but chose to sit opposite Audrey.

Even though Audrey is already an audience member who is familiar with acting, her eyes are still dull.

On the contrary, the Earl's eyes were narrowed, and the Countess couldn't control her emotions and covered her mouth and chuckled.

At this moment, they don't look like nobles, or even Audrey's parents. They are just two happy people who are eating melons.

"How is this going?"

Audrey subconsciously turned her gaze to the embers.

Although he didn't speak, Ember could see the questioning look in the girl's eyes.

"Thank you for your invitation, Earl Hall."

Ember noticed Audrey's eyes, stood up and raised the wine glass on the table to toast Earl Hall.

"do not worry about it."

Earl Hall smiled and said, "After all, you and Audrey are friends, aren't you?"

Ember shrugged her shoulders, while Audrey blushed instantly, her heart full of shame of being teased by her parents.
