Lorenno patted the parchment and said, "I will attend the banquet with Miss Monica that day. Then I will find an opportunity to come out. If you don't enter, I will take the magic prop alone or destroy it directly."

"I will tell my father, Miss Lorenzo."

The half-elf girl looked at the black-haired assassin in front of her. Her father was also a noble, and her arrogant temperament did not change even after falling into despair. However, the assassin Kuro did not look like a noble lady, but had a sexual nature.

An aloof adventurer.

"See you then. Let me know if anything happens."

……

Reporting to Monica and asking Elsa to take care of the businessman, Lorenno took advantage of the night to raid Kurian's huge manor. Outside the three- to four-meter-high wall, he observed the guards patrolling the city wall and analyzed their patrol time.

There are no buildings around. It is estimated that the surrounding land also belongs to Kurian. The reason why he bought it is to prevent anyone from checking the route. What makes the half-elf girl very strange is that she does not feel the breath of legend at all. No.

"Could it be dead already?"

Or was it that the legend was half-dead and half-alive, which prevented her from discovering it?

In short, there is no legendary atmosphere, which means that it is quite safe inside. The information obtained from the resistance and Monica is that there are about 23 high-level professionals in the Kurian family, and there are no trackers such as rangers and bounty hunters. , now even the aura of the only person who could easily detect her has temporarily disappeared, and she can enter the manor with peace of mind.

Even worse, there are invisibility and gas form.

Lorenno blindfolded her eyes and expanded her alternative senses to the limit. A new world appeared in her mind again. The half-elf girl aimed at the gap between shifts, her hands clinging to the wall like magnets, and her feet flew up with force. He snuck into the empty manor wall, sneaked in from the blind spot of the patroller's sight, and jumped into the green belt of the manor.

Recalling the map of the manor, she was currently in the back garden. If she wanted to enter the blank space on the map, she had to go left first.

When passing through the bushes, Lorenno didn't make a single sound. She could see the patrol team clearly. She could always enter the blind spot formed by many guards in advance and easily reach another wall that was heavily guarded.

People were not the only ones in trouble. There was also a large amount of alarm magic covering the walls in her sight, preventing anyone from entering. Once triggered, a chain reaction would occur, and the sound would be heard by everyone in the manor.

If you enter in the gas form, you will definitely not be able to come out. When Lorenno was thinking about how to get in, the sound of the vegetation made her eyes light up.

Her current "seeing" is not looking, but pictures constructed in her brain through other perceptions. Since her senses have parts of plants, she can try to let them convey the information inside. It is indeed possible that something is missing. It's better to be vague than to be in danger.

The half-elf girl hid in a hidden rockery, sinking her body and mind into the feeling conveyed by the plants. The picture in her mind became dark and blurred. Lorenno vaguely saw the moon in the sky and the plants around her.

Change perspective…

The camera shifted and Lorenno saw a lonely house standing inside the wall. The exterior light was very luxurious, there were many plants by the window, and there was a cage that seemed to contain some kind of bird.

The space between the house and the wall is surrounded by professionals and traps, and there are only a few places where people can pass through.

Go to the house...

Lorenno tried his best to gradually transfer his perception to the plants at the window. At this time, the half-elf's perception suddenly became clear. There was a green wooden coffin placed where the moonlight could shine, and a group of people were talking around the coffin.

"Brother, do we really want my father to come out? He only has three years to live at most, and this is the result of the coffin's longevity."

"Father must come out, otherwise believe it or not, we can't live without Ginkgo City, and we will die here before we prepare the money."

He is the leader of the Kurian family.

Lorenno heard their conversation and realized that their legend was lying in the coffin, but he didn't know whether the coffin was placed here or put up when the legendary warrior was not in use.

The half-elf calmed down and continued to listen, hoping that these powerful people could say something useful.

"Hasn't your son taken care of Monica Maytal yet? She is an important chess piece."

"This businessman is too careful. She avoided him several times when he had the chance. This became even more so after the addition of the half-elf Lorenno. My son can't do anything about it, brother."

"Then try to tamper with the banquet. Instruct the servants to add something to the food she eats, and let your son eat it first."

You have to tell Monica about this and ask her to be careful.

Lorenno thought about continuing to eavesdrop.

"...Is the family really in such a critical moment?"

"Otherwise, our glory and wealth all come from our father. Why do you think you can dominate the city? Is it our own ability? Without our father, we are just ordinary nobles. With so many enemies, when our father dies, We absolutely cannot stay in Ginkgo City or even the Empire!"

"I originally thought this coffin could prolong life, but it just freezes aging time. Damn it."

It looks like he is really going to die...

Lorenno, who used the flower's sense to observe the room, realized this and wanted to try to see their faces clearly, but there was no way, and the voices were all in the same tune, making it impossible to tell who was who.

Through the senses throughout the house, the half-elf girl recorded the structure of the house. She escaped from the plant's perspective and opened her eyes to find that the world in front of her was spinning.

Covering her head, she felt blood flowing into her mouth. When she touched the blood on her nose and hands, Lorenno used her spiritual power to adjust her body. It took her an hour to eliminate the negative effects, and then she realized that she could observe the world from a plant perspective. It is very dangerous to cause the phenomenon of physical maladaptation to return to the body.

At least it's dangerous for her, and it's not

I know what my sister is like.

After completing the missing parts of the map, Lorenno wiped his belt and released the invisibility technique. He twisted his body like a snake and got out of the gap in the rockery, seizing the time to get outside the manor.

Back at Monica's manor, she took out paper and pen and mapped out the place where the coffin was placed and gave it to Monica. The businesswoman who was woken up looked unhappy. After washing her face, she studied the map and decided to remove the rebels. Over there, I have to send some people there to attract attention.

"Miss Lorenno, it doesn't matter if the coffin is not taken back and destroyed, as long as Kurian's legend can no longer rely on that magic item to continue its life."

Chapter 191 Dinner

Lorenno reminded: "But the question now is whether the legend will fight back before death and eliminate all people who may threaten him."

"Don't worry, Mr. Ginkgo will definitely take action by then," Monica didn't worry too much. "According to the intelligence I collected, Kurian was able to defeat Mr. Ginkgo when he was young, and more than once, but now..."

"He is just a dying old man. If he is not a sword master, he may not even be able to use one-tenth of the strength he had in his heyday."

Even legendary professionals will be affected by physical aging and failure. Among human professionals who are not spellcasters, currently only the Sword Master can unleash his full strength at the most aging moment. As the patriarch of the Kurian family, A legendary warrior, his body will definitely be affected in his later years after years of wear and tear. His ability to survive to this day is all due to the magic props.

After deciding on the target, Monica was a little worried, and finally asked the city guard to prepare for old Kurian to kill.

……

In the next few days, Lorenno also saw Monica's work efficiency. She quickly took back the bulk goods sold to the blacksmith, exchanged them for double portions of normal iron ore, and expedited transportation from another mining city at her own expense. The Chamber of Commerce bought iron ore and made up for the missing parts of the large order. The pain on the fox's face was visible to the naked eye.

"What are you going to wear?"

"Can't you just wear this?" "I don't want to wear a dress, it looks uncomfortable!"

Lorenno and Elsa answered simultaneously.

Elsa is usually loose and doesn't like tight clothes, but Lorenno is very interested in beautiful clothes, but if she wants to steal something, why not do it in a dress?

"The same set of clothes is easier to spot," Monica explained. "I can make you a dress that can be put on and taken off at any time, so you don't have to worry about clothes."

"Okay." The half-elf girl agreed.

Time comes on the day of the 90th birthday party of Kurian’s real owner, Kelso Kurian.

The door of the Kurian family was opened, and a large number of carriages drove into the manor in different levels. The nobles flattered each other with false smile masks.

"Viscount Reid, are you here too?"

A red-haired middle-aged man toasted to another person in the splendid hall, and the noble next to him made the same move as him.

The man named Red smiled, raised the red wine and whispered: "Of course I came to see how Mr. Kelso is doing and whether he is in good health."

They are a group of nobles who are dissatisfied with Kurian. In fact, these people account for [-]%, and only [-]% are Kurian's lackeys. In the eyes of these veteran nobles, the Kurian family is basically an upstart. As long as the legend is around, do whatever you want.

None of their families had legends hundreds of thousands of years ago, but keeping the family safely until now is not only the role of legends, but also the interests of the nobles.

"By the way, where are the two attendants beside Miss Maytal and Princess Connie."

After the nobles arrogantly expressed their dissatisfaction with the Kurian family, Reid discovered that the businesswoman was not there.

"Probably not yet," the red-haired middle-aged man said disdainfully, "Dear Viscount Reid, I don't understand why you want guys like the Lametal family who abandoned their aristocratic status and completely turned into businessmen to join you."

Naturally, it's because they understand the changes in the situation, a bunch of idiots——.

Most of the nobles were immersed in the glory of the past. They had never thought that they were now people of the empire, but their noble status was still that of their original country. The queen just hadn't taken the time to operate on them, so she really thought that she was safe.

Smart nobles like Red or the Maytal family have already begun their transformation, waiting to become businessmen before obtaining the noble title of the empire through other channels.

Reid hid the disdain in his eyes and smiled in his heart: "Don't say that, it's better to abandon your reserve and go into business than to be a fool, isn't it?"

"Haha, that's true."

The current situation is very similar to a joke on the Internet. There are nine groups in the four-person dormitory, and the number of factions among these nobles is countless.

While they were talking about how much money they had made and having a wonderful physical relationship with a certain widow, Red's eyes glanced at the door from time to time and paused. He smiled and walked up to her and exclaimed: "Blessed God, today You are so beautiful, Miss Maytal."

"Thank you for the compliment, Viscount Reid."

Monica, who arrived, saluted the nobles. Red looked behind her and smiled: "These two must be Miss Blood Beast and Miss Giant Wolf. Hello, I am Red."

"Hello."

Lorenno, who was wearing a dress, saluted. She covered almost her entire forehead with long bangs, looking attractive.

Go very inconspicuously.

Elsa, who has never learned etiquette, nodded to Red, and looked at the table full of food. Lorenno leaned close to her ear and pointed to the table in the corner and said: "Go and guard that position. That should be Anything to eat.”

Because there are already escorts or bodyguards there feasting.

"Then I'm going!"

Elsa ran away, but Lorenno did not leave Monica, but followed her expressionlessly. The nobles also knew that this was a troublesome person, and they were so happy to see that Lorenno was not going to interrupt.

Monica picked up the red wine and clinked glasses with the nobles. Someone whispered: "Miss Maytal, why is this Princess Connie's attendant here?"

"I sent a request to someone to protect me, but this person took me away," Monica said. "Miss Lorenno seemed to be training herself to prepare for this year's competition, so she didn't meet Princess Connie. Go straight to Dovray.”

"That's it~"

The nobles suddenly realized that after talking to them for a few words on behalf of her father, Monica immediately left a place that did not belong to her age group and came to a group of young masters and ladies. She winked at Lorenno. The half-elf girl knew that she could leave and lowered her voice. The presence mingled among the nobles and asked the maid where the bathroom was. After getting away from everyone's gaze, he entered the cubicle and took off his clothes, revealing the tight night clothes underneath.

Opening the window, Lorenno ran into the grass and moved to where the coffin was. A sense of danger came over her, and she knew that the legend had woken up.

……

Chi—click—

At the same time, the coffin was opened, and the light green gas spread. When the coffin lid opened, a strong man opened his eyes and stood upright from inside.

“Father.” “Father.” “Grandpa.”…

The current head of the family hugged the legendary warrior. Kelso stretched his body and asked, "Has my birthday started yet?"

"Yes."

"Then let's go," the man stood up and put on his dress, "let them know that I am still alive."

Chapter 192 Kelso Kurian

"Do you think the legend will come out?"

"I'm afraid that Lord Kelso doesn't have much time. He will definitely come out today to scare those who have ideas about the Kurei'an family."

The aristocratic lady in front of Monica was chatting. She was standing with a group of girls. The business lady stood aside with a smile, listening to their conversation, saying something from time to time, and appearing to be friendly to everyone.

These ladies belong to different families, and there are vases and people who will hold some power in the future. For the business lady, even if they don't make friends, they should know their information and information.

The noble lady who spoke looked at the smiling Monica and suddenly challenged her: "By the way, Miss Monica, I heard that the second or third young master of the Kurian family wants you to be his lover. This is really lucky.”

"It's just the second young master's whim."

"My brother is not just a whim, he really likes you, Sister Monica~"

Kurian's lady interjected that there was no one around Monica to help her, and everyone was watching her jokes. She was an outsider, and this nobleman had given up his original identity, so naturally he was not accepted by these noble ladies. .

This scene has happened many times. The shy business lady smiled awkwardly and lowered her head in pretense of fear. She looked very harmless. The image she established among these nobles was that of being timid and afraid of getting into trouble. Everything was decided by her father. Monica herself is nothing more than an exiled eldest lady.

Let’s not talk about whether we can deceive the old nobles who are all human beings. At least many young masters and ladies were deceived by appearances. Even if someone told these children to have a good relationship with Monica, few people would listen.

Seeing the cowardly look of the businessman, the vases who spoke showed mocking looks. Before they could continue their sarcasm, a terrifying aura instantly enveloped the entire place!

come yet? !

Monica lowered her head, feeling the heavy pressure, and looked worriedly at the direction Lorenno left. As the pressure disappeared, she raised her head. The white-haired old man, whose muscles were so strong that the black dress collapsed, looked at the nobles below, and said Like looking at ants.

Looking at this old man who looked to be in his fifties at most, the nobles who were at odds with the Kurian family frowned. Kelso Kurian didn't look like he was dying at all. Could the intelligence be wrong?

On the contrary, as the henchmen of the Kurian family, some small families were overjoyed. As long as the giant above them is still there, the sky will definitely not fall.

"Everyone," Kelso raised his glass, his loud voice echoing around the party, "Thank you for coming to my 90th birthday."

"This is as it should be, Lord Kelso."

A nobleman stepped forward with a smile and saluted. Kelso nodded and suddenly said loudly: "I heard there are rumors in the city that I am going to die?!"

"Does anyone want to try and have a fight with me?!"

The 90-year-old man smashed the table with his fist and looked at everyone with angry eyes: "I woke up from my realization just to see who dares to attack the Kurian family. Let me tell you, no matter who attacks us Even if it’s the empire, I dare to bite off a piece of flesh from her body!”
