……
Everyone kept quiet.
The researcher was the first to react. He pushed the maid away and ran up the stairs in two steps, "What did you say? What do you mean by a monster with scales?!"
"Sir! What are you doing!"
The maid followed up in panic, trying to hold the researcher, "Please let go of my wife, otherwise, I will go to the sheriff."
The researcher raised his hand and shook her away, "What did you see? What kind of monster? Did he kill someone? Is there any blood?"
The gentleman stared at the researcher blankly, and suddenly pushed him away vigorously, almost poking the researcher's face with her sharp red nails, "Are you a god of death?! Why did you come here? Did you take my little Neo? !"
It was like a ridiculous drama, the gentleman's wife actually pinned the researcher on the stairs all at once.
"Hey, hey, what's the matter? Let go." The soldiers below rushed to help one after another, and pulled the gentleman's wife away in two strokes.
"Little Neo...my little Neo, how can you follow the devil..."
"Ma'am, my God."
The maid hugged the gentleman lady to help her straighten her hair, and she also became angry, "Is it what you should do to bully a sick lady? When the master comes back, we will definitely go to the magistrate."
The researcher was not very old, and he had just come out of the alchemy tower not long ago, and he was still standing there at a loss.
"But she just said that..."
The maid gave him an annoyed look, "After my young master got lost, my wife got sick. Do you have to hold on to her nonsense?"
Even if the religious groups in the country are not as large as those in neighboring countries, families with a little knowledge are willing to go to the auditorium to pray every week.
Like Mrs. Gentleman, after having been exposed to relevant knowledge and not so clear-headed, it is not unheard of to conjecture demons and ghosts based on these.
The maid didn't want to talk to the researcher, and directly supported the gentleman's wife to the room, "Okay, okay, I'll be fine after a night of sleep, okay."
The soldiers below were originally nervous for a while by the researcher's actions, but after seeing it now, they all turned into expressions of watching the show.
A mockingly shoved the researcher, "If she goes to the sheriff, you can solve it yourself, don't fucking drag us."
"I think you should really go to a mental hospital with that woman just now."
"Fool...hehe."
Several soldiers patted the dust off their bodies and walked out of the gentleman's house.
"The research institute is really a bunch of idiots."
"Okay, anyway, this street has been searched, this place is for drinking."
The researcher's face was flushed under the black cloak, "But all the characteristics of this house are in line with the prophecy."
"What prophecy?" The soldier looked at him like a madman, "Aren't we here to catch fugitives?"
"..."
The researcher couldn't explain Oppern's astrology, but he also knew that if he couldn't find some evidence himself, the soldiers couldn't help him.
"We have to bring these two ladies back first." The researcher calmly demanded.
"Ha!" The soldier burst into a loud sneer, "Are you dreaming? This is the territory of the Sauk family, and she is a gentleman's wife. Insulting a gentleman's wife on an earl's territory, you plan to be killed Does the sheriff swing the whip?"
The researcher has been in the Alchemy Tower all these years, but he didn't know about these laws, so he immediately stood there without moving.
The leading soldier gave him a hard look, turned around and pushed his companions to go out.
"But, but Your Excellency Opern..."
"It's kind of like letting that tuberculosis tell us by himself," the other person didn't turn his head, "I really think I'm General Kenley..."
The last syllable of ridicule stuck in his throat, and the soldier froze in front of the corridor.
Outside the door that had just been opened, Opern, whose face was as pale as paper, stood on the steps.Seven or eight research institutes also wearing black cloaks stood behind them.
Just looking at this scene, it really looks like the god of death has come.
The soldiers dared to make things difficult for the researcher, but obviously they could only shrink back from Opern, who had the title of nobility, and were speechless for a while.
The dean of the research institute had extremely cold eyes, and the amber pupils hidden behind the lenses stared straight into the room past him.
The soldier moved aside awkwardly.
The researcher hurriedly said, "Your Excellency, I found that this one is exactly as you predicted."
Then he shut his mouth.
Opern raised his hand to signal him to shut up, his eyes wandered around the room.
……
No one dared to speak out at this time, even the maid who settled the gentleman's wife on the second floor was shocked by his aura.
It's just a little weird.
The young researcher peeked at Opern out of the corner of his eye.
He had received guidance from this outstanding senior in the alchemy tower, and had also served as Opern's pharmacy assistant.At that time, Opern, who was indifferent and tall, was very in line with the yearning of a commoner girl for a noble young master.
Even if Opern's birth is extremely bad.
During that time, Oppern's every move became the object of his study.
But today, the dean's behavior seems to be a little bit wrong...
The researcher's gaze hesitated, and finally stopped at Opern's nasal bone.
Some indescribably frowned.
If he's not mistaken, is Opern... sniffing?
Indeed, the body is leaning forward slightly, and the nostrils shrink unobtrusively. This is indeed the behavior of beasts using their sense of smell to observe their surroundings.
……but why……
A strange palpitation gripped the researcher's heart, and before he could give himself an answer, Opern walked into the depths of the house.
"What do you want to do?" The maid hurried down the stairs, trying to stop her.
"Bring her here too." Opern said without any emotion in his voice.
He was already very tall, and he quickly walked where he wanted to go-the kitchen of the gentleman's house.
Of course, unlike the kitchen of Sauk's house, which can accommodate dozens of maids and servants, the kitchen of Gentleman's house only has a simple stove and a cupboard.
You can see everything.
Although the researchers present didn't say anything, they were a little puzzled in their hearts. In their view, this was the most common arrangement.
But in Opern's eyes, everything has changed since he woke up this time, and since the merman's flesh and blood he ingested finally reached the critical value.
Some kind of inexplicable blue substance diffused in the air. If he had been a mermaid since birth, he should know that this represented the breath molecule left by another of the same kind.
To a certain extent, Oppern and August are also growing black tails.Under the stimulation of the breath molecules, Opern couldn't even restrain his inner anxiety.
He bent down and plunged straight into the burning coals, his pupils shrank for a moment without even realizing it.
"Your Mightiness!"
"My God! What are you doing, sir!"
Opern turned his back to them and did not speak.A piece of red-hot iron was held between two unscarred fingers, and it gradually turned dark as it was exposed to the air.
Opern turned around and showed the front to the maid.
"This is not..." A soldier standing behind recognized it, and subconsciously looked at his chest.
The silver sun-shaped leader is pinned there, which is the symbol of the members of the Kenly Legion.
"Where did this come from?" Opern didn't even look at the soldier, but just stared down at the maid.
This look, which is more like locking on the prey, actually looks a bit like August.
——Of course, Rhines wasn't there, so no one could find out.
The maid's expression froze for a moment, "I-I don't know."
……
Opern suddenly raised his leg and kicked the stove down, only to hear a bang, and the metal buttons, cuffs, and badge epaulettes that could not be burned by the flames were all scattered on the ground.
The soldiers who saw this scene were startled at the same time, and it took a while to realize what this might mean.
"..." A soldier stepped forward and grabbed the maid, "What did you do?!"
"I don't know... I really don't know! Gentlemen, this stove is usually only used by me, so I don't know why these things appear here..."
The two researchers stepped forward to pull the two of them apart, and then looked at Oppern at the same time, waiting for him to give an order.
But the strange thing is that the dean of the research institute just stared at the badge in his hand, and after turning it over twice, he slowly put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
The extremely faint sweet fragrance was suppressed under the breath left by the black-tailed merman.
On this badge, it was more intense in the living room just now.
Astrology is very similar to dreaming, but only a small part can be remembered after waking up.Just like Oppern now, he vaguely remembered that he seemed to see a touch of silver in the fragments of the crystal ball.
I don't know the time, it is probably an extremely wide pool.The owner's aesthetics are extravagant and arrogant, using moonstones to carve jellyfish, cat's eyes dotted with fish scales...
Surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass windows, you can vaguely see the sea and sky outside the window, and the lush vegetation and flowers are like brocade.But the person inside could only half-immerse in the pool water and look out. There were chains and unknown strange runes that imprisoned him in this square inch of land.
But no matter what, the owner is very satisfied, he successfully raised a beautiful...
So what's that silver one—
"...Your Excellency, Your Excellency?" The assistant was afraid that his sequelae were still there, so he hurriedly pushed O'Porn away, pulling him away from the illusion brought by astrology, "What are we going to do now?"
Ou Poen looked down at the assistant belatedly, giving him a chill on the back of his neck.
I have to admit that after the dean woke up this time, something changed.It was as if something that could not be touched by humans had grown under the human skin.
"Take both of them back." Opern turned around, and the corner of his snow-white robe flicked in the air, "The evil creatures used them to achieve their goals, but they also left traces."
"Okay, okay..."
For Rhines, who only woke up from his sleep after three poles in the sun, today is just the beginning.
He sat on the bed a little dull for a while, and didn't turn back until he felt the soft warmth on the back of his hand.
The black and white cow cat kept rubbing its ears against him.
"Ah," Rhines slightly bent his eyes, "Long time no see."
"Meow~"
"Is it okay to eat jerky today?"
Rhines asked smoothly.
"Meow~"
One person and one cat rub against each other, and they don't even know who is the softer animal.
If no one disturbs, the cow cat will soon be able to sleep in Rhines' arms.
But after a while, a hand climbed on the window sill of Rhines.
The thin and slender boy climbed up in two steps, sat sideways on the window sill and looked at Rhines in the room.
……
"Why do you look at me like that, Brother Rhines?" August asked with a smile as if tilting his head.
Everyone kept quiet.
The researcher was the first to react. He pushed the maid away and ran up the stairs in two steps, "What did you say? What do you mean by a monster with scales?!"
"Sir! What are you doing!"
The maid followed up in panic, trying to hold the researcher, "Please let go of my wife, otherwise, I will go to the sheriff."
