He held his breath.
He did not dare to move.
Chris pressed his back against the wall of the bathroom cubicle. With the full support of the Thief’s Stealth, he was completely integrated with the surrounding environment.
But even so, Chris did not dare to raise his head. He only dared to look down at the ground, and in the end, he even closed his eyes.
Because he had a very strong premonition.
If he turned his eyes slightly and looked at Count Sisre, who was right in front of him, or if he could not help but take a deep breath, the other party would instantly sense his existence.
The whole process lasted for more than a minute.
In that one minute, Count Caesar stood rooted to the ground like a wooden statue. Although Chris’s eyes were closed, he could feel that Count Caesar’s gaze swept past him several times. Fortunately, it only swept past him and did not stop. It was obvious that Count Caesar did not notice him.
Just as Chris’s face was about to turn purple and he could not hold on any longer, the eerie silence in the bathroom was finally broken.
The sound of footsteps rang out, and Count Sisre seemed to have given up before him. He finally left the bathroom.
However, even so…
Even though he was the only one left in the empty bathroom, Chris’s intuition didn’t tell him to run away. Instead, he remained in his original state, sticking close to the wall and maintaining Stealth. Of course, other than secretly taking a few breaths.
This continued for a while…
Chris knew that his intuition had saved his life once again.
That was because…
“Uncle… Earl?” The servant girl’s salutation came from outside the bathroom. It was not hard to hear that other than respect, there was also a hint of strangeness in her voice.
They didn’t know why Old Master didn’t say a word and just stood quietly by the bathroom door.
“Ah, you came at the right time.”
“The wall of the cubicle in this bathroom is broken. It’ll be hard on you guys later. Remember to get someone to fix it.
“Aiyaya, this mansion castle is just like a human. After getting old, there are problems everywhere!
Count Sisre’s familiar voice came from the bathroom door.
“It’s not hard. Can… It’s our honor to serve the lord! Moreover… Moreover, Old Master will definitely live to a hundred years old and be healthy forever!
The maids said in unison. Some of them were even blushing. It was not hard to tell that they were not pretending to be perfunctory, but were sincere.
Indeed, it was rare to find a master like Count Sisl who did not put on airs, treated people kindly, and had an easy-going personality.
And…
It was said that the Countess passed away when she gave birth to Miss Liz, and the Earl had never married a new wife.
“Haha, I hope so. Then I’ll go upstairs to entertain the distinguished guests first. After that, I’ll leave this place to you. ”
Count Sisre seemed to be amused by the maids. After laughing a few times, he finally went upstairs.
Chris’s sense of danger finally disappeared, but he was not careless.
Using the sound of the maids entering the washroom as cover, Chris dared to move as well. His figure flashed, and with the fastest speed, he finally left this place that was absolutely filled with horror.
Then, his horse did not stop.
Because the Earl had broken the wall of the bathroom, causing dust to stain his clothes, he had to change his clothes.
Using this gap, Chris came to the highest point upstairs, where Vivian and the others were in the count’s study.
Finally, he saw this little girl from the countryside again.
In his impression, he still had that innocent and kind face that was full of ignorance and no wariness. Chris was burning with anxiety.
If he had been hesitant before, was it really the right thing to do? After all, the dream of many rural girls was to come to the big city and be a maid for the noble lords.
But now…
Taking a deep breath, Chris, who was disguised as a maid, held a teapot and tea set and pretended to serve tea to the people in the study. When it was finally Chris ‘turn to go to Vivian…
But…
“Eh?” Chris didn’t know if it was his imagination, but he seemed to have heard a faint sound of surprise from the little girl’s mouth.
Then, before he could do anything, Vivian looked at him, who was disguised as a maid, with some curiosity and…
There was an indescribable strange look in his eyes.
However, Chris did not think too much about it, nor did he have the time to think about it. All he wanted to do now was to leave the castle as soon as possible after delivering the message to Vivian.
As for whether Vivian believed him or not…
What a joke. Would Chris even consider this? To put it bluntly, he had nothing to do with Vivian at all. Chris felt that something must have gone wrong with his mind to do this for her.
What was that?
You said you like her?
This must be the funniest joke Chris had ever heard in his life. A shriveled man with a humble background. The only good thing about him was that he was good-looking. In the end, he had a good personality. To put it nicely, he was naive and kind. To put it bluntly, he was silly and did not have any schemes.
He wouldn’t even want a girl like her for free! Liked it? He would never like her in this lifetime!
Chris’s ambition might not be to be the daughter of an earl like Miss Liz, but no matter what, she had to be a voluptuous rich lady, right?
What was she thinking?
She quickly threw away all those messy thoughts in her mind. Then, under Vivian’s unnatural and strange gaze, the maid Chris handed a cup of hot tea to the little girl.
“Thank… Err… Thank you?”
Just as Vivian was about to thank the maid who was disguised as a woman under the second personality’s reminder, the little girl was suddenly stunned.
Because…
There was a ripple on the surface of the tea cup that the other party handed to her. Then, a line of small words appeared on it.
[Don’t ever get in touch with the Cecil family.]
[Just find an excuse and leave this place quickly!)
“This
By the time Vivian came back to her senses and looked away from the teacup, the female servant had already left the study.
What replaced it was…
“What’s wrong, Miss Vivian? Are you not used to our Sisre’s vigorous voice came from outside the study.
The Earl returned after changing his clothes.
“No… Of course not.” Vivian pretended to be casual as she replied. She shook the teacup in her hand and hid the words on the tea.
“Haha, that’s good, that’s good. Oh right, you can carry that in!
After Count Sisre clapped his hands, under everyone’s curious gazes, he asked the servants to bring a large mirror.
“Father, this is?” Liz turned around in the mirror and asked curiously.
“This is a magic projection mirror that I hired a Fire God Cult’s mage and spent a lot of money to make. It can reflect all the scenes outside the Fire Code City in this mirror.
Count Sisre hugged his daughter onto his lap and caressed her long golden hair.
“Earl, you want to…” Butler Robert was the first to react.
“That’s right! Not only us, but the largest Fire God Square in the center of Fire Code City has also set up a magic projection.”
Count Sisre nodded, and his expression gradually became serious.
I have always felt that as the ancient aristocrats of Fire Law City, we are worthy of the title of aristocrats. We should do something for Fire Law City. Right now, there are clearly so many refugees who have lost their homes because of the disaster, but the people in the city are indifferent to this as if this matter has nothing to do with them. When did the atmosphere in Fire Law City become like this??
The more Count Sisre spoke, the more excited he became. It was as if he was trying his best to suppress the trembling in his body.
“So, even if we use the assets of the Cecil family…’ “I also want to see the scene outside the city…” “Let everyone in Fire Law City see it!
Count Sisre’s voice was filled with a sense of mission.
“Only when all the people of Fire Code City see the appearance of our compatriots, let all the people of Fire Code City see the arrival of the Lord Oracle, let all the people see it, then everyone can wake up.
“Only then can we truly…Awakening! I’ll be saved!”
“Master….” Butler Robert sighed lightly. There was a hint of helplessness and pride on his face.
While the other nobles were thinking about how to drive away these refugees, only their master did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build a magic image to speak for these refugees. He truly treated the refugees as humans and as his own compatriots.
Furthermore, it was obvious that the Earl had thought further. Even the Oracle…She should be referring to Archbishop Maggie, right?
It was obvious that Master wanted to show Archbishop Maggie’s resilience to the people of Fire Code City to inspire them.
To be able to serve such a powerful family, Robert felt extremely honored and honored.
On the other side…
“Father…” Liz’s eyes were also filled with admiration. She felt happy to have such a father.
“Alright, it should be about time.”
Taking a deep breath, as if realizing that he had lost his composure just now, Count Sisre returned to his usual self.
He waved his hand, and the magic projection on the mirror was immediately activated.
From outside the castle, a commotion could be heard in the Fire Code City.
Obviously, everyone had also noticed the magic projection that was rising above the Fire God’s Great Square.
At this moment, the scene outside the Fire Code City was filled with refugee camps, city guards responsible for maintaining order, and not far away, it could be seen that the process was about to end successfully. Only a small group of refugees were walking out of the huge teleportation gate.
Everyone in the city could see clearly.
“Now, let us…
“Let’s witness the arrival of change together! “The count’s muttering echoed in
the study..
