It is impossible for the girl to find the evil god in the textbook

Ashley felt the young empress tremble slightly, but it took only a moment for the latter to return to normal, to be as usual.

"Okay, I just need to complain."

"It's really Ashley, your skin is getting thicker and thicker, won't you blush when you say such things?"

Lily smiled through tears, and the color of the flower decoration gradually became lighter again.

"I seriously think so..."

The female knight bent her index finger and scratched her cheek, then took out a strange thing from behind, which looked like a silver ring with roses wrapped around it.

"Lily, happy birthday."

"what?"

Lily let out a low cry, the busyness of this time almost made her forget this day.In fact, strictly speaking, this should only be the day she came to the dreamland.

"I forgot... so you always remember."

She snatched the ring away and put it in a position that left Ashley stunned.

"The queen accepts it, let's continue to work, knight!"

Ashley Chevalier froze for a moment, then trotted to catch up with Lily Bell who was striding forward.

"Wait for me, miss!"

The snow stopped at some point.

ps: Happy birthday Lily~

Chapter 1 Multi-party preparation

At [-]:[-] p.m., in the dinner hall of Faust Manor in Renfrewshire, southwestern Scotland, Ling was sitting beside her adoptive father, Fred Mephisto, frowning.

"Father, what do you mean, the principal will probably do something about this mission... In this case, there is no need for us to take risks, right?"

In recent months, Kraft has received noticeably more coverage of the incident in various locations.

Extraordinary events that cannot be handled by the ordinary world seem to be erupting at an unexplainable abnormal speed.

"If it was the past, maybe as you said, we don't need to intervene-but this time is different."

Fred quickly divided the lamb chops on the plate into finger-thin pieces, throwing food into his mouth without affecting his speaking speed.

"Albert's recent actions are really too big. First, he tried his best to arrange a new president of the student union in Kraft."

"That doesn't sound like a big deal."

Ling quickly wiped out the food in front of her, but a puppet sitting opposite her seemed to be even faster.

"It's not a big deal?"

Fred rarely put down his knife and fork while eating, and wiped the grease and meat foam on his beard with a napkin.

He smiled strangely,

"That's because you underestimated the authority of the president of the student union, which almost means the successor of the next executive officer or the principal... If I say that, you should understand?"

"The shadow is not a human being after all, she is indeed not suitable to succeed Professor Howard or the principal..."

Ling replied without thinking, but stopped after speaking halfway.She thought about it carefully, and then said again:

"But there are not many people who actually know her identity. That is to say, Kleist's actions deprive Ella of her successor status on the surface."

Fred rubbed the top of her head, pulling the girl's short hair into a mess.

"You have indeed grown up."

"In this way, I can safely hand over the task to you... This should be what you want."

Ling showed a little perplexity.

"Mission... what I expected?"

Fred walked to the French windows, the night outside Faust was very dark.

"Replace the heir, promulgate new rules for dealing with affairs related to evil gods, dangerous creatures, and even filthy blood... I am afraid that Albert Kleist has already expressed his attitude. It won't be long before that Ella Williams' name will be included in it, which is why the doll needs to be brought to Faust Manor in advance."

"what--"

Black emotions gradually occupied Ling's pupils. At this moment, the strongest wizard in mankind seemed to have completely opposed her.

"This is expected, it's just a lot earlier than expected..."

Fred looked at the dark sky, and there was an uneasy atmosphere in the air. The middle-aged wizard rubbed the beard on his upper lip, but he used too much force and accidentally pulled one out.

The corners of his eyes twitched a few times, and he said something that made Ling unable to calm down.

"Probably... that child is coming back soon."

-

at the same time.

"In order to restrict Kleist, it will be difficult for our people to provide you with any help this time."

The man picked up a crystal chess piece from the chessboard.

Straw Belusay returned to the White Rose Manor after a long absence. On the beautifully decorated terrace, he and Hyde sat on both sides of the stone table.

Looking at the bishop chess piece in his father's hand, Hyde was thinking about things other than the crystal chessboard. He thought:

There are three landing points in the report...the probability of finding the target is only one-third, and this probability is not small.Without the family's assistance, most likely Mephisto and the shadow will act separately from me this time...but...yes, I have no reason to lose to others.

The one who succeeds will definitely be me. This is for the benefit of Beluse and also for...

"General."

A crisp collision sound pulled Hyde back. He looked at the chessboard, and was surprised to find that he had no more pieces to go.

Although his father's chess skills are not inferior to his own, it has been a long time since Hyde lost to him so easily.

"I will ask the servant to deliver the new alchemy props to you before tomorrow morning. This is the last thing I can do."

"...don't think outside the board, whether it's a game with me or someone else, remember that."

Straw grabbed the platinum cane by the stone table and strode away.

Hyde looked at the chessboard in front of him silently, the pieces made of two-color crystals were scattered messily on the black and white grids.

-

In the lounge of Faust Manor, Ling looked at the shadow lying sideways on the sofa, and was speechless for a while.

The delicate figure is wearing loose silk pajamas, enjoying a coffee and dessert in full swing.

The length and pleats of the nightgown are very clever. It exposes most of the graceful curves of the doll's legs, but it stops the eyes here and cannot go deeper.

Ling sniffed the smell in the air, then looked up at the time on the wall clock.

"It's almost eleven o'clock, and you still drink such strong coffee?"

"If I want to fall asleep, I just need to cut off the supply of magic power, and it doesn't matter how much coffee I drink."

"..."

The relaxed posture of the puppet made Ling feel very awkward.

"Are you not nervous at all?"

Shadow rolled his pink eyeballs and glanced at him.

"I think you need to re-read the basics of occult science in the first grade. According to common sense-if it is really Ella Williams who comes this time, you and the things you prepared are the best way to build a relationship." Props, so the person who found her must be you, there is no doubt about it, even Kleist can hardly find more anchor points in such a short period of time."

"My task is just to attract the attention of the principal's executors and create a better environment for you... Is there any reason to be nervous?"

Seeing Ling's increasingly hostile gaze, Shadow adjusted his posture slightly.

"Okay, okay, I will try my best to make a big noise tomorrow. I estimate that half of the executors who can spare their hands will be attracted to me. This is okay, right?"

-

"Ella Williams?"

The girl pushing the wheelchair stopped, and she asked the old man in the wheelchair curiously:

"Sounds familiar. Is she important? Teacher, if you want, I don't mind bringing her back."

The old man in the wheelchair coughed a few times, and the mask fell off a little due to the vibration, exposing skin like a mummy.He was so old that he could barely move on his own.

"I used to think it wasn't that important ... Now it seems like I misjudged it."

"Faminie, you can go and have a look and try not to make a move, although you don't want to admit it—but I don't think you can beat her."

"No way?"

The girl looked very surprised, and her dark purple eyes were a little bright.

After a few seconds, she said with some embarrassment:

"If I leave, what should you do, teacher?"

The old man in the wheelchair smiled with difficulty, his laughter was like a broken bellows leaking air.

"Don't worry, I'm not ready to die yet."

Chapter 2 Morning Bells in Paris

In the center of the basin of northern France, the city of Paris stands on the Seine River, spanning both banks.In the past year, the city has undergone tremendous changes.

Appointed by Napoleon III, Mr. Baron Haussmann, the chief executive of the Seine district, was responsible for leading the urban reconstruction of Paris. The shabby houses and narrow alleys of the capital were drastically demolished and rebuilt within a year.

In just one year, the spacious tree-lined roads and classical-style buildings have taken shape, and the sanitary conditions have been greatly improved compared to before. The original dirty environment in the Louvre has become a certain A fashionable joke.

For a long time now, the sound of clanging drums has flowed along the waters of the Seine, and Paris will be a very beautiful city for the foreseeable future.

At six o'clock in the morning, the cool morning fog enveloped the riverside and Mary Bridge.Today's construction has not yet started, and this city in the river has restored a short period of tranquility and elegance.
