Adult fairy tale: starting from Cinderella’s feet

“”What…what?” Carl was panicked when he heard what Esther said, because this candle was specially prepared by Carl to welcome Henry. Now Esther said that the problem came from the candle, which scared Carl a lot.

“Esther, you… you understand, have you? This… this is a crystal shoe with candles, do you understand?……”

Henry raised his hand to interrupt Karl’s flustered words

“”Esser, you are an exorcist, I definitely believe you, but can you explain it to me?

My head is really confused by this magic!”

Faced with this wave of fantasy things, Henry did not blame Esser for not understanding it as impatiently as Carl did. Instead, he trusted and relied on Esser more.

Esser sorted out the whole story in his mind and slowly told the story.

“In fact, the abnormal state of everyone was caused by the burning candles at the beginning.

It was just that the girl wearing the crystal shoes wanted to get the favor of some nobles at this dinner party and become famous overnight!

And it just so happened that there was an evil old magician behind the crystal shoes!

Magic, ecstasy, we naturally linked the two together!

But now the magician has been executed, and I saw that everyone was about to fall into ecstasy again! I checked it carefully again and found that it was the candle that was causing the trouble!

This candle is fused with something similar to magic, and burning it will cause hallucinations!

As for you, Prince Henry, everyone is awake, and you are still in a mental illusion, probably because there are more candles near your seat!”

“You… you, you, have you figured it out, Esther, no… don’t make the mistake again.

Our Prince Henry is a noble man, but… we can’t allow you to mess around with him!”

Beads of sweat kept oozing out of Carl’s forehead. Carl panicked and tried to deny Esther’s words.

“Viscount Carl, where did you get this candle?”

Faced with Esther’s question, Carl tried to hide his feelings and not admit that he had handled the candle business, in order to distance himself from the matter.

But at this moment, Prince Henry obviously trusted Esther more, and naturally did not buy Carl’s vague answer.

“Viscount Carl! Did you prepare this candle? Are you trying to murder me?”

Facing Prince Henry’s serious questioning, Carl knelt down in fear:”Your Highness, I would never dare to murder you!”

“What about these candles?”

Facing these old-fashioned nobles, power and coercion are more direct.

Henry got angry, and Karl immediately confessed.

“Your Highness, this… this candle is indeed prepared by me for you!

But I never thought that this candle would have such a harmful effect!

Even if you lend me a few more courage, I would not dare to murder you!

You know me, I don’t have any big ambitions, I just want to protect my territory.……”

“”Tsk…” Henry rubbed his temple and interrupted Carl’s words:”Don’t talk about these nonsense! Hurry up and tell the exorcist the key points.

If you keep delaying like this, this magical candle will fill your entire territory!”

“Oh oh oh! OK!” Carl looked at Esther in a hurry:”Master Exorcist, I don’t know magic, mind control or anything like that, you should be able to see that!”

Carl first pulled Esther to prove himself, and then began to explain:”I bought this candle from the town next door!

Oh! I also heard the nonsense of the people below!

It is said that this candle is very popular in the town next door. After it is lit, it has a very comfortable atmosphere and makes people experience the feeling of God!

I thought of Prince Henry, who came from afar, I… I must entertain him well!

This is why I went to great lengths to buy this kind of candle. As for the dense candles around the prince.

I also want the prince to enjoy it better and reflect the prince’s dignity.

I really don’t know that this candle is… a magical thing!”

“This prince has already said that this tour is to test the governing ability of you officials and nobles, so that you won’t have any crooked ideas!”

At this moment, Carl was lying on the ground and didn’t dare to say a word.

Henry looked even more uneasy at this moment:”Aither, do you have any good solution?”

“I can’t see the specific means of this candle for the time being.

If you want to solve this strange candle, I’m afraid you have to go to the source of the town next door to check it out!”

Hearing that Esther was willing to help, Henry’s expression immediately relaxed:”Thank you very much! This prince doesn’t know any other superpowers, I can only send troops to help you!”

“Your Highness, ordinary troops are actually not very effective against such fantasy things. Sending out a large number of troops will cause a commotion and may alert the enemy!

It is better for me to travel light and explore on my own!”

“Well… then I’m really sorry to bother you, Esther. My subordinates are all ordinary people and can’t provide you with good help!” Henry said and looked at Carl. The smooth-talking Carl immediately responded:”Master Exorcist, I will provide you with maps and high-quality horses.

In addition, I will pay you another 100 silver coins as funds for the investigation! I fully support you in exorcising the people!”

“Thank you, Viscount Carl, for your support!”

In this way, Esther prepared to continue investigating the real source of this enchanted dinner in exchange for extra compensation.
