Recalling the conversation just now, he was very satisfied with his performance.Fitili thinks that he has shown enough goodwill, which is undoubtedly a good move for formal contact.
Chapter 20 Party
Faminie was cleaning the food with a frown. She had already noticed the small familiar in the shadow of the hidden house.
I have been exposed?
She couldn't help thinking about it.
No, I probably just became one of the objects of suspicion.
Farmini just pretended that she hadn't discovered anything, and continued to be busy with the work at hand.But things became more and more interesting as she expected.
Famini couldn't help but laugh and hum happily.
-
The carriage drove across the street and stopped before NO.30 of the Champs Elysees.
Ella left the carriage and returned home, and began to recycle the temporary familiars she had created. They were just small eyeball-shaped things that could not move or protect themselves. The only thing they could do was to record what they saw.
She uses hints to hide them in a blind spot of sight, and only magicians of a certain level can see through her hints.
The number of familiars hasn't decreased, but that doesn't mean they haven't been discovered.
Ella sighed, the other party seemed to be quite cautious, and did not touch the arrangement she left behind.
She checked the records of the familiars in the study, but she found nothing unusual. Victoria stayed in the living room to read a newspaper after finishing her work, while Farminie never left the kitchen area.
There was nothing to be disappointed about. She had expected this to be a long-term battle.Even if you can't catch the magician directly, you can still make the other party feel afraid of his actions.
After flipping through a few pages of "The Book of Nod", it was almost noon. This book even recorded some spells used by the filthy blood. This is undoubtedly a polluted magic. Ella did not use herself as an experiment interest of.
It seems that the incident will not progress for the time being.
Ella planned to apply for a hunting license in the afternoon, and by the way, look for the wizard trading place mentioned by Dmitry.
-
It is not difficult to apply for a hunting license. You only need to submit an ID and fill out the application form. If you are willing to pay [-] francs, you can even skip the waiting time for approval.
During this period of time, the people of Mephisto and Belusay's alliance should have forged all the information about "Yosef Bell" from the source, and it would be difficult to find any problems even if they traced it down.
Ella applied for four licenses, and simply bought a few shotguns and ammunition at a nearby hunter's club, and left her address.
"Okay...let me go and see what a wizarding gathering in Paris is like."
She has heard about this kind of place for a long time. Most large cities have unofficial wizard gatherings. Such places were originally very common, but as Kleist's attitude towards unofficial magician organizations changed, their number shrank rapidly. And become more secretive.
The address given by Dmitry Dalton was a theater in the north of Paris. It took Ella a lot of effort to find this so-called theater.
It turns out that wizards' tastes haven't improved much over the centuries, and that seems to be the case in every country.
It is not so much a theater as it is a small nightclub or dance hall.
Because of time constraints, there seemed to be no business here, and there were a few scattered people sitting in the auditorium.
Ella was not in a hurry to express her intentions. After purchasing the admission ticket, she ordered a glass of sparkling wine and sat at the back of the auditorium.
The woman on the stage wriggled her limbs vigorously, and the few people in the auditorium didn't seem to care much about the scene on the stage, but she was still dancing crazily, which made the atmosphere in the theater look a little weird.
In Ella's vision, the dancing girl should be a puppet or a living corpse. There is no life in her body, but it is only pulled by the thread of magic power.Although there are some concealments, the guests in the hall all have a bit of magical power. Most of them are unofficial wild wizards, and the concealment they do is as bad as their magic power.
There was very obscene music playing in the hall, and Ella felt a little uncomfortable, which was a kind of torture.
After nearly half an hour, the dancer stopped dancing and saluted to the audience in an unnatural posture.The music ended with sparse applause.
Ella finally shakes off her mental torment and stops a waiter passing by the auditorium.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, he didn't have any impression of the guest in front of him, and asked with some guard:
"I don't think I've seen you before."
Instead of wearing a Persona, Ayla replaced herself with a tall, mature woman with a Confusion Charm.It is common for executors to be mixed into this kind of unofficial wizarding organization. Regardless of the appearance of Ella Williams or the face of Yusuf Bell, it will be very troublesome to be traced afterwards.
This was the second layer of protection she put on for herself.
"I was introduced by the old man."
Her voice sounded hoarse, an imitation of the court mage.
After the waiter heard the name, he let down his guard. He nodded and said:
"You're lucky, there's a party in half an hour, you can choose to watch another show here or go to the lounge for a drink... Unless you can enjoy it, my personal advice Yes, the latter."
The waiter was quite disapproving of the performance on stage, it seemed that he at least had a relatively normal aesthetic.
Following the waiter through the downward passage, there seems to be a space under the theater that is about the same size as above.
The original owner of the building, the waiter explained, was a royalist baron who built the massive, soundproofed basement to support the rebellion under the new regime.But before the project was over, the unlucky guy was sent to the guillotine, and the house was later converted into a theater.
I have to admit that even though the project is only half completed, its sound insulation effect is indeed very good.
After getting rid of the maddening music, Ella relaxed a lot. She felt that if she stayed in that kind of place for a long time, the chance of wizards losing control would increase a lot.
Ordering a glass of Kronborg sparkling wine, Ella waited for the party to begin.
Before the party began, the waiter brought a tray with several half-faced ball masks.
"Choose one, and you will pay me five louis."
Ella glanced at the inferior masks made of cheap metal, ceramics or feathers, and felt that the other party seemed to be blackmailing herself.
"Five louis?"
"Four of them are considered as membership fees to enter the party. It stands to reason that you need a guide in addition to that, but since you said it was introduced by the old man, it doesn't need to be so troublesome."
The waiter explained.
Ella nodded and took out a five-louis note.In addition to buying the necessary magic power materials, she can also sell some surplus potions here to repay the debt she owed to Dmitry.
After she received a black half-covered feather mask, the messenger gave Ella a set of black robes with a hood.
Wearing the same dress, people wearing masks passed through the wooden door one after another, and Ella also entered.
This is a very dim room. A dozen people in black robes and masks surround a round wooden table. The dim light of a few candles illuminates a small area on the round table. It is difficult to see other people's faces.
After people took their seats one after another, Ella picked an empty seat and sat down.
After confirming that no one else entered the room, the wooden door was squeezed into the gap.
By candlelight, a figure dressed like an aristocratic character from the play announces the party.
He was probably the initiator or central figure of the party, as if to tease the original owner of the house, a middle-aged man who called himself "The Baron".
The baron's voice sounded very dull at this time.
"Our situation has become very difficult recently, and the number of gatherings is not as ordinary as before. In just over a month, three familiar figures have been missing here."
"They must be dead. At Mary's Bridge more than a month ago, I heard that none of the wizards present at that time could escape. I have already said that those damn executors should be killed in advance!"
This is a voice that sounds a bit rough. The person who spoke is a rather tall male. His height is more than two meters two. The process of speaking is accompanied by large body movements.
"You are also worthy? Three of you may not be able to deal with one executor."
It was a woman who spoke.
At this time, a voice that was very familiar to Ella came.
"Stop arguing, I can't waste my precious time listening to your complaints, this time I brought twelve bottles of sedatives, the price is the same as before, five louis a bottle, and I need two hundred milliliters of Wulong's blood. "
It was the voice of the old alchemist Dmitry Dalton, and Ella noticed him nodding to herself before sitting down.
His sedative was quickly bought by a gentleman at a price of eight louis per bottle. Considering the production cost of the sedative, the profit in the process was considerable.
And the old alchemist also bought Yalong's blood, and few people in the party seemed to choose to bid with him.
Ella didn't make a sound all the time, just observing the transaction in the party, secretly calculating the price.Most of the common alchemy materials can be bought in the party, and their prices are generally higher than those in Glamis' shop.
It is worth mentioning that the price of various common medicines is not low, which is not surprising. Most of the unofficial wizards only master a few spells, and their knowledge of mysticism is very limited, so it is difficult to refine Create standard potions.This also explains Dmitry's status in the party.
After that, Ella intentionally reported a few more useless materials. Although the cost was higher than usual, it could avoid being noticed.
If there is a wizard cooperating with the executor hiding in the party, purchasing materials according to the correct potion formula may be targeted.
After the deal, party members shared some recent intel.
Most of them are about executor movements, major events happening in the wizarding world, or items that the party members can get in the next trade.
Only one of the messages caught Ella's attention. The female party member mentioned her own investigation of serial killers in Paris.
Her outside identity seems to be a private detective, Miss Detective mentioned:
"I originally thought that the murderer was just an ordinary lunatic, but the news I got recently is...he killed an executor."
Chapter 21 Cause of death
Ella's complexion became very ugly, relying on the mask and hood to conceal the abnormality.Even though her position is contrary to Kleist's, she still identifies with her identity as an executor and has a good impression of this organization.
She had also heard about the recent serial murders in Paris, but she didn't treat it as a mystery.
But the development of the incident was beyond her expectations. The executors were all the elite among the elite. Under normal circumstances, it was difficult for them to be killed.How could ordinary people kill the elite wizards?
"How can you confirm that it is the executor?"
Ayla asked in a hoarse, disguised voice.
"It's easy to identify. He has the silver badge of the executor on his body. And even if it's a corpse, the remaining magic power is hard to fake."
Miss Detective froze for a moment, she was very unfamiliar with the voice asking the question, it did not belong to any member she was familiar with, but she still answered the question politely.
"If you don't hide too much power, I don't think the killer is someone from the association, unless he is a new member..."
Having said that, Miss Detective quickly glanced at the person who asked her the question.It looked like a tall woman with a black feather mask. From the skin under the mask and the hands crossed on her knees, it could be seen that she should be a young lady in her early twenties.
It didn't quite fit the picture of the killer she had in mind.
