Before the woman had time to understand what was happening, the old man hit the ground with his cane, and then waved his free hand. The maid at the same moment began to stagger, as if drunk. A transparent mist, invisible to the common man, hit her nose and penetrated deeper into her body ...

- What the ... - she didn't have time to understand anything, when she suddenly fell and began to snore. Seeing this sight, Aidan only sighed to himself.

"You still need to learn, she didn't fall instantly. Eh, the magic of sleep is definitely not my element ... "

After that, he slowly walked towards the gate, but did not slow down at all. When his foot touched the iron doors, he did not seem to notice the obstacles and calmly stepped directly on them: following with the other foot, continuing to step on a vertical surface, as if walking in a park. Easily crossing the obstacle with the help of ice magic, Aidan continued to slowly move towards the main door of the mansion.

- Let's have fun, - whistling, the decrepit old man touched the door. Instantly, a crust of ice swept in all directions, covering the entire wooden door. Once everything froze, Aidan tapped her lightly with his wooden cane. At the same moment, the door turned into small fragments and crumbled. Crossing a small group, the old man entered the mansion. He never met a single obstacle. Only with a wave of his hand, the fragments of the door flew in the wind.

Inhaling deeply, Aidan stopped for a moment and rummaged in his pocket, took out a small silver key, held it out in front of him and said:

- White crow, open the gates!

In a flash of gold, a small white bird appeared right in front of the old man.

- Kar! Hello host. - greeted the raven, this time without swearing. After several calls and the conclusion of a contract, the raven had to hold back a little. Aidan called him no more than five times after that incident, so they had a bit of an agreement. Although, of course, this bird still sometimes shouted out vulgarities or something else. In any case, as long as he holds his tongue at least temporarily, Aidan was already glad of that. After all, if he were just a small, silent bird, he would be even more useless than he is now.

- Raven, go find Virgo, while I inspect the house.

- Oh you, yo ... - the raven finally made out the old man in front of him, whose voice did not match this wrinkled face like a plum. True, the raven stopped the hail of questions in time, remembering how this man somehow almost ate him, roasting him over the fire. The bird swallowed and shook its tail, and then sharply croaked:

- Kar! Virgo?! Is this crazy girl here too ?!

- So you know each other? - asked Aidan, starting to inspect the hall in which he found himself.

- Well, - the bird stepped from paw to paw: - Kar! Not really, I used to walk with that nasty snake and goose and dove. Kar, we were the best team, master! Until the rotten swan gets into our affairs! Well, and then my last master died, I told you that ... Those were glorious times ...

Aidan stopped and asked irritably:

- So where does the Virgo?

- Kar! How to do it ?! In the Celestial Spirit World, we are almost neighbors. And believe me, you would not want to live next to her! I had to move, she exhausted all my nerves! This girl always wanted to pluck and wash me! Why am I white ?! Just ask this crazy woman!

From these croaking mixed with screams, Aidan quickly began to regret having summoned this talkative bird ...

- Well, go to her and tell her. Just don't bother me, - Aidan waved him off and walked further into the hall. He felt the presence of vital auras here, so he immediately went to them.

- Eh, ugh! - the raven spat, waved its tail and slowly fingered its paws, walked towards the stairs. Although he was talkative and lazy, and did not yet follow his tongue, at least the raven knew how to move well with its paws with a rather impressive speed. Of course, he hated water, and he also hated flying. But his magic was not so bad. He was able to produce rather strong sound waves, to match his loud nature. An untrained magician can easily lose his hearing if a raven shouts well in his ear. Perhaps the pluses of this bird end there ... After all, it will not even be possible to fry it.

- Go to the right, - Aidan grumbled, looking after his spirit, which walked wherever he looked. The raven croaked in displeasure, flapped its wings and walked in the other direction.

***

At the same time, a fat mustachioed man with a contented look lay in his jacuzzi and enjoyed the company of two small maids: their faces resembled pork stigmas, and their bodies ... If you could cross an old vase with domestic pigs, you would get exactly a couple of these strange women. One of these maids rubbed the fat man's back, and the other fed him with slices of an outlandish fruit. Both women giggled and grunt vilely, while Everly broke into a happy smile and relaxed in the warm water. The Duke's life in all its glory!

- This is what I call the life of a great man! - The Duke exclaimed contentedly, licking the crooked fingers of his grunting wet nurse.

Meanwhile, bypassing the entire palace, Aidan put three maids to sleep along the way, finally reaching the desired location where the duke and the owner of the mansion were hiding.

- Oh, master! - suddenly heard nearby: - ​​And you are here!

Aidan glanced at the raven, which was quickly fingering with its paws, and sighed.

- You just got here?

- Oh, well ... - the raven scratched the wing with its beak and grumbled:

- I found some ugly girl here and almost died of fear! I had to stay ... Kar! Where are you taking me ?!

- Shut up and walk alongside. Aidan waved his hand and walked towards the unusual vitality ahead. He felt something like that only from his stellar spirit. Of course, this aura of life was different from those in this world and even from the aura of the raven itself. It is not difficult to understand who it might belong to. The Virgo looked a bit like a Silver Grade Star Spirit, but was clearly different, as if she were of the highest kind. However, this is natural - Aidan had nothing to compare with, but at least the vital forces of mortals and spirits were as different as heaven and earth. Fortunately, he could feel them too. Over the past months, Aidan has gained a greater understanding of the magic of life and therefore was able to distinguish not only different people, but also their powers, as well as distinguish them from animals. However, only by vitality, he still could not determine who its owner. But, it was not so important anymore.
