The strange girl was taken aback: "So this is the Duke you mentioned?"
Langdon felt nothing but embarrassment.
Just now he was wondering why he hadn't come back for so long, it turned out that he was caught by his knight... In the end it was his fault!
"Since your maid is back, I'll go first...Although I don't think you need it, if you have any questions, you are welcome to ask me anytime."
This is a rather euphemistic way of saying it, because telling a disabled person to come to me when you need help feels like adding salt to the wound, and those with stronger self-esteem may really have to get through things themselves.
After all, he still agreed to His Majesty, and His Majesty returned the things he gave so much as compensation... She is also the Duke's daughter after all, and generally does not need his help, so he just expressed it so that he could have an explanation with the Emperor.
After bidding farewell to Cyrunita, Langdon left with Bridget.
The maid named Luna, while pushing the wheelchair forward, heard her lady's confused words.
"The Duke of Stuart..."
Luna answered: "What happened to the Duke?"
"... He actually said that other people are psychological effects... He is not affected by my eyes at all... It's strange."
In theory, this should be impossible.
...I always feel, a little concerned.
[ps: To add an update tonight~ Langdon's profile picture has been reviewed!Everyone can go and see Chirp~]
5. Mutual shields (3k)
It was Bridget who was with Langdon during school now.
Xia Tiya really wants to be together, but on the one hand, her combat effectiveness is mediocre, and it is meaningless to come here; It is used to study how to solve the troubles caused by her imperial brother.
However, because the teacher of today's martial arts class is Bridget's senior brother, Bridget went to visit her senior brother. Unexpectedly, she ran into an acquaintance on the way back. After following the acquaintance for a while, she saw Langdon again.
This was just right, Bridget went directly with Langdon, and saved the trouble of finding someone.
She has a lively personality, and she can't stop talking on the road: "Duke, how are you talking with Miss Melotti? Do you have a common language?"
"...It's okay, it's the first time we meet, and there's nothing to talk about."
Langdon didn't think he had any common language with Cyrunita, but he thought it was no wonder that Bridget had a good relationship with Cyrunita when she set out a mission. After all, her familiar personality seemed to be more suitable for her. comminicate.
"However, she is so weak that she needs to use a wheelchair, and the maid left her there alone. Isn't it too good? Since you have a better relationship with her, you have a chance to remind her to change to a maid."
Bridget blinked: "Ah... when I saw her last time, she was not in a wheelchair yet... I was also surprised to see it just now."
This can be regarded as an answer to one of Langdon's doubts.
So the body has deteriorated recently?No wonder neither the Emperor nor Bridget had mentioned the wheelchair.
Bridget tried to explain: "Miss Melotti seems to be under a lot of mental pressure because she awakened the blood magic of the spirit system, and she often falls into a trance or loses consciousness... It's okay in her own home, and the people around her are taking care of her. There are a lot, and it’s a bit worrying to go out, so I’m going to use a wheelchair.”
Langdon recalled Siluneta's subtle words just now, and pondered: "...Excuse me, do many people know about her blood magic?"
When Langdon doesn't need her to accompany her, Bridget will wander around the school, enjoying the pleasure of "although I'm in school, but I don't have to study", and I've heard a lot of gossip.
"It seems that a lot of people know about it. It should be from the freshmen. After all, those eyes are very obvious. But I don't know too much detail. I probably only know about the spiritual department. The specific situation must be the same as mine. I don't know!"
"What are you so proud of!" Langdon groaned, and then said disapprovingly, "It's normal for the body to undergo alienation if the blood magic is awakened, and the eyes are even more common parts. Their reaction is really great."
Bridget sighed: "After all, you will feel uncomfortable when you see it...I can understand."
Langdon: "...?"
I don't quite understand where the discomfort is. It may be that I see too few abnormal pupils. If he looks at Two-dimensional as much as he does, he won't be surprised.
He had no interest in Siruneta, and after a little understanding, he forgot about it and changed the subject casually: "How was your chat with your senior brother?"
"I was dragged to be a training partner for a class... After class, I was also caught to check whether I have regressed recently." Bridget stuck out her tongue, "But there is no way, the teacher is not in the imperial capital now, my The training can only be done by the senior brother."
Langdon: "Your teacher has been very busy recently. Last semester, it seemed that he was not so busy."
Hearing this, Bridget looked around, and then whispered: "Actually, I heard that the teacher seemed to be impatient with some princes, so he found an excuse to run away."
Langdon first sighed with emotion. At the position of the head of the Royal Knights, the best way to deal with power is still to run away, and then he grasped the key point: "Some princes?"
Is that what he understood?But the emperor looks quite healthy...
However, the crown prince of the August Empire is the emperor's first child. If you count the time, he has been the crown prince for decades. If the emperor waits for a long time, maybe the crown prince will die before the emperor. It's normal to want to do something small.
It's also possible that it's not for the emperor, but for the crown prince, trying to get the crown prince down...
But the head of the Royal Knights is a smart man, so he ran away. The emperor may not know about it, but he is his own son after all, and he didn't really do anything. I'm afraid how to deal with it. To be known by so many people.
Alas, he understands so well!Sometimes I really wish I was a loner, and I could have less worries when doing things...
Anyway, Langdon has his own principality, and the princes of the August Empire are messing around, and have nothing to do with him, just listen to gossip.
Thinking of this, Bellatrix's name suddenly flashed in Langdon's mind.
...I always feel that if Bellatris finds out, she might be on the sidelines. Although she is not a prince, it doesn't affect her troubles...
Langdon suddenly felt that the judgment he had made just now had nothing to do with him was a bit arbitrary.
I can only hope that Bellatris is addicted to playing royal games, and don't think of him as an outsider!
While chatting, the two had already arrived at the library. Langdon took out the library cards of himself, Flora and his eldest nephew, and borrowed several books in one go.
The collection of books in Langdon's own library is very delicate. It is estimated that the ancestors felt that there was no need to put the basic books in the library to take up space, so the books left behind were all difficult or partial, not suitable for Langdon's current level.
However, the Stuart family hasn't produced awakened blood magic for many years, and the research on their own blood magic can't be asked to others.
On the contrary, the open parts of the school library are basic, which is suitable for the current Langdon. Langdon intends to borrow books from the library to study the experiments of his ancestors and see if they are reliable.
After all, the death rate makes it easy for people to wonder if it was a coincidence that the survivors should have awakened blood magic. Even if he wanted to become stronger, Langdon did not dare to commit his life to a ritual that had not been used for many years. .
Anyway, he brought the booklet of the ancestors, and the alchemy dagger needed for the ceremony. If there is no problem, he can start the ceremony at any time.
But also because he needs to study these things, even if there is no workload right now, Langdon can't live in a convenient school dormitory, so he can only go back to the Duke's Mansion, because the various confidentiality and protection measures here have been tested for many years Yes, it is relatively safe.
As for Helena... What is Feng Shui Turning?
If Helena wants to leave school now, Langdon, as the head of the family, has to sign. Langdon uses the reason that the first grade is too heavy and running back and forth is meaningless, and persuades Helena not to go out of school if she has nothing to do. The sweetness will only be given when the mental state is stabilized.
Probably bewitched by Langdon's care for the patients, Helena was surprisingly able to listen to what she said. In addition, she was also a master of academics, and felt that she could see Langdon at school, so this persuasion It went well.
However, there will still be some troubles.
Langdon read until midnight, calculated that it was almost time, and opened the window, waiting for the arrival of some unexpected guest.
After an unknown amount of time, Bellatrix flew in through the window wearing a black cloak.
She was able to bypass the numerous defenses, naturally because Langdon opened the "back door" for her at a fixed time. After all, an agreement is an agreement, and Langdon doesn't really want to try to break the consequences of the agreement.
But he still wanted to complain: "Can't you switch to the daytime? Just listen to a story, there's no need to wait for the night, right?"
Bellatrix lifted her cloak, raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Daytime? I don't care, but if my father wants to talk to you because I come to visit every day, you just don't think it's my fault again." ——Say it first, I have always praised you in front of my father."
Hmph, don't think she doesn't know, Langdon uses her as a shield, and he refuses to marry her... But Langdon is actually a shield she found for herself. Even if she is married, her father can't keep recommending other men to her who "belongs to her".
"I didn't let you come here openly, why did you come here secretly during the day, avoiding other people's attention?"
Bellatrix was very uncooperative: "I'm also very busy during the day, and I don't have any reason. It's not good to disappear from the palace suddenly. And the Duke treats me as someone, can I only see you secretly?"
Langdon ignored the deliberately troublesome question and focused on the key points: "I remember before your birthday party, didn't you claim that you didn't ask the 'savior' to thank you because of the retreat? You can't retreat now?"
"..."
Bellatrix looked at Langdon miraculously and subtly, and found that he, as a "benefactor" whom she would avenge, brought up this incident with an unusually peaceful mind, as if the incident was about someone else, without any psychological fluctuations. Just to give an example...
Bellatrix, who was once confident, felt a little awkward at the moment.
Obviously, obviously it was such an impressive first meeting, even if this first meeting impression is bad, but it is still an important memory, right?
If Langdon walked away from that event as if it were a normal day... what would she do?
For some reason, she felt that she couldn't forget it, and couldn't treat it as an ordinary day in her memory!
However, it feels strange to admit this, and I always feel that I have lost.
Bellatrix skipped over this inexplicably entangled question unhappily. There have been a lot of this kind of situation recently, and she can't figure out many things, so she can only leave it alone and answer the question first.
"I don't want to retreat recently, because I feel that something interesting will happen."
Langdon: "..."
The ominous premonition might come true. Could this interesting thing be the result of the prince's careful thinking?
Bellatrix waited for a while, and asked dissatisfiedly: "Don't you ask me what's interesting?"
"I'm not interested..." Langdon said to himself, don't drag me into it.
When Bellatrix heard this, she felt rebellious and wanted to tell Langdon immediately.
"Recently, several imperial brothers have been wooing me! Although they have been wooing me before, something is wrong recently. I guess they want to make trouble!"
After speaking, she began to observe Langdon's reaction.
Will you be surprised?Will you be worried?Or do you feel like it has nothing to do with him?
Langdon was silent for a few seconds before responding, "...Wow."
How brave!Do you think you have too much advantage in attracting such a fun person?
[ps: add more!I still owe two more chirps ~ Good night everyone ~]
6. Only the face looks romantic and passionate (3k)
That being said, it's not that Langdon can't understand the courting behavior of those princes.
After all, Bellatrix is also a member of the royal family. If she doesn't stand on her side, she may stand on someone else's side.
It's fine if she's just an ordinary princess, but she's still an elf mage with great development in the future. In any situation, her words are more useful than those of outsiders, even if it's just to keep everyone on the same starting line. Can't ignore her.
It's a pity that these people didn't consider Bellatrix's fun-loving nature, and wooing her is just asking for trouble for herself...
But after Bellatrice said this, he understood why this guy didn't go to school.
In order to be the son of prophecy last school year, the emperor insisted on putting Bellatrix and Lilica in the school to attend or be teachers, but Bellatrix has privileges as an elf mage, and no one can force her if she doesn't want to go.
Recently, she was probably obsessed with the princes' internal strife, and she didn't go because she was afraid that going to school would affect her food.
Langdon sighed indifferently before noticing the look in Bellatrix's eyes.
She seemed dissatisfied with his reaction.
"...uh." Langdon thought hesitantly, "Then you go for it?"
Bellatrix was even more dissatisfied, and felt that Langdon was being perfunctory: "What oil should I add? It has nothing to do with me, I'll just watch the fun!"
Langdon was also a little impatient: "It really has nothing to do with you. Why are you so concerned about it? Those who don't know think you want to be emperor too."
"How is it possible, I—"
Bellatrix's rebuttal paused suddenly, her golden pupils lit up slowly, and the feather fan in her hand spread out section by section, blocking her expression.
Although the relationship is not good, after all, they have been together for a long time, and Langdon is familiar with some of Bellatrix's little actions. Seeing her reaction now, Langdon suddenly feels bad.
"What bad idea are you thinking of?"
Bellatrix changed her displeasure just now, and her tone sounded very pleasant: "Don't feel as if you know me very well, I didn't have any bad ideas."
"Then what are you laughing at?"
"I thought of something happy."
Langdon: "..."
It seems that it is really bad. His words just now seem to have released a terrible devil.
Help, he's just making fun of it! ! !Even if he didn't say such a thing, Bellatrix herself should be aware of it, right? !
It's not that queens have never appeared in this world, but most of the cases are caused by the death of men or the queen's own strength overwhelms other men... From the current point of view, Bellatris seems to meet the latter one, which she has never thought of. is the strangest!
In this way, Bellatrix seems to have always been very subtle towards the royal family. At that time, she even said something like "Kill my father to help you (roughly)", it seemed that she didn't consider herself as a member of the royal family. same as people.
In fact, as long as he is not involved, Bellatrix's troubles have nothing to do with him.
