They all call me master

Arthur noticed something was wrong.

When he saw the text prompt just now, he instinctively felt that he should burn the painting just now - it was an instinct originating from the depths of the soul of living beings. Even if he had not encountered similar things before, it seemed like countless The ancestral imprint in his soul reacted normally.

Burn it! Burn it!

When the flames rose, the uneasiness in his heart completely disappeared.

However, Arthur looked at his attribute column——

【Spirituality: 0.2】

…

Every change has a reason!

Everything happens for a reason!

It can’t be for no reason!

Arthur has never encountered anything like this before, but since [Spirituality] increased by 0.1, he has encountered this kind of strange thing.

For a time, many speculations appeared in Arthur's mind.

Arthur's face gradually became ugly.

Because these guesses are not very good.

Especially the worst one, it made Arthur raise his hand and rub his brow——

The higher the spirituality, the higher the probability of encountering mysterious events!

The mysterious side not only has desirable power, a life full of surprises, and romantic adventures, but also...

Danger!

These dangers are often accompanied by death.

What causes death may be the power you yearn for, you want to enjoy an amazing life, or it may be the adventure that everyone wants.

Of course, the most likely thing is the 'unspeakable' thing that Arthur just encountered.

Arthur also didn't know what kind of soul would be incorporated into his paintings.

But burning it is the best option.

At this moment, he really wanted to know more about the 'mysterious side', including but not limited to his speculations on spirituality and many rules.

And it is especially important regarding spiritual speculation.

Because, if his guess is correct, he will inevitably fall into an infinite loop:

He seeks power, but power will bring spirituality, and spirituality will bring unknown things, thus posing a threat to him!

What happens once the threat becomes more than he can handle?

die!

Unquestionable death!

Moreover, it is not a good death!

It is very possible that life would be worse than death, for example...

That beggar!

When he thought of himself becoming that beggar, looking silly and crazy at times, Arthur's scalp went numb.

As for giving up power?

For Arthur, it is even more impossible.

If there is no power in the world in front of you, it will be at the mercy of others.

Even, you will die faster than choosing the former.

'Is this why the Mystery Side is gradually declining? ’

‘Have they not found a way to protect themselves? ’

‘Or there is a similar method but it is kept secret? ’

More speculations emerged, and Arthur took a few deep breaths to suppress the chaotic thoughts.

He knew that being anxious would only make his judgment wrong.

And random thoughts will make him completely defeated.

What he needs to do now is to wait patiently for news from Wiggins, and... attend Malinda Julius Caesar's salon.

For this ‘Ms. Long Night’s Salon’, there was a previous arrangement.

Arthur wouldn't break his promise.

When night fell completely and Edwin knocked on the door of No. 2 Kirk Street, Arthur put on his black double-breasted trench coat. The silver buttons were illuminated by the bright light of the carriage. Shining and paired with clean leather shoes, Arthur, who was already handsome, looked even more energetic, and the psychic box in his hand added a sense of mystery to the young man.

"Good evening, Mr. Kratos."

Edwin greeted Arthur and bowed to open the carriage door.

"Good evening, Edwin."

Arthur responded, but he couldn't help but frown in his heart.

Edwin is the coachman of Ms. Caesar, and he should only serve her.

But now the other party's coachman drove the other party's carriage to pick him up.

This is the etiquette required to welcome the most distinguished guests. It is extremely grand, but Ms. Caesar's grandness did not flatter Arthur.

On the contrary, Arthur's vigilance increased to another level.

He clearly remembered the polite tone of the coachman when he said he would come to pick him up. In Arthur's mind, Ms. Caesar would send a carriage instead of her own coachman. And driving his own carriage.

Doing so attracts too much attention.

But at this time, Edwin spoke.

"Feel sorry."

The low voice could only be heard by two people.

Arthur boarded the carriage calmly, but deep down, he felt more and more strange.

Because, he knew that this was Edwin apologizing for his master.

It should be what Ms. Caesar means.

The woman immediately apologized for her reckless behavior.

this means--

‘The other party is in some kind of last resort situation! ’

‘Are you being watched? ’

Arthur narrowed his eyes and began to think about the meaning and evaluate the risks and benefits.

And soon, Arthur came to the conclusion that the risks were low and the benefits were good.

It's very simple. If the situation is really life-threatening, it's impossible for the other party's coachman to show up, and even the salon will be shut down.

The other party should be in a state of 'knowing that they are being monitored, but unable to show off, and can only distract the monitor's attention'.

Thinking of this, Arthur breathed a sigh of relief.

But the thinking didn’t stop.

'Assuming that the other party is in a difficult situation and needs me to attract others' attention, then... what does the other party want to do next? ’

Arthur frowned.

There was so little known about Ms. Caesar that even Arthur could not deduce anything at this time.

However, there is one thing that Arthur is sure of.

That lady is seeking cooperation!

Immediately, Arthur's narrowed eyes lit up.

He seemed to see a large amount of XP waving to him.

"Mr. Kratos, let's go!"

After saying hello, Edwin cracked his whip.

Snapped

With a crisp sound, the carriage started, driving at a constant speed and smoothly, so that Arthur did not feel the slightest bump.

Arthur, who was well aware of the road conditions on Kirk Street, expressed heartfelt praise for Edwin's driving skills. It was absolutely impossible for anyone else to drive this carriage so smoothly.

As the coachman of Ms. Caesar, such driving skills are necessary.

The carriage drove smoothly through West Merck Avenue, passed Garden Street, and at the end of Garden Street, turned into a tree-lined path. After passing the Spring Water Square, it finally arrived at its destination: White Bird Street.

If Garden Street is a residential area for the general middle class, Kirk Street is the first choice for middle-class families, then White Bird Street is the choice for the truly wealthy.

Not only is the environment here beautiful, it is close to the Spring Square, and it is only a short distance away from the Earl's mansion.

Of course, the most important thing is safety.

There is a sentry box in Quanshui Square.

A whole team of police patrols were on duty there, preventing any non-White Bird neighborhood residents from approaching Fountain Square.

That's right!

The 1-kilometer journey starting from Quanshui Square and ending at Shiratori Street is also included in Shiratori Street.

With Edwin as a familiar face, Arthur's carriage would naturally not be blocked.

Seeing this scene, Arthur became more certain about his previous guess.

The Caesar lady was under surveillance, but not in danger.

This is really good news for him.

Because this means that if the two of them cooperate, it will be——

Low risk, high return!

This is what everyone wants!

Arthur is no exception.

The carriage continued to drive and arrived at No. 6 Bainiao Street without any obstruction. It did not stop, but drove straight into the courtyard.

The iron gate was opened, and the waiter at the door was welcoming guests one after another.

The horse-drawn carriage driving on Kirk Street would make the whole street appear congested, but it looked just right in the courtyard in front of them. Even if there were three carriages parked next to it, it did not make the entire courtyard appear congested.

Even though there are still many people standing in the courtyard.

There are both waiters and guests.

The waiters smile and serve every guest with dedication.

Guests chatted in small groups and walked in pairs in the courtyard. In the sound of music coming from the hall, everything seemed so beautiful and desirable.

After Edwin opened the carriage door and Arthur stepped out of the carriage, both the guests and the waiters turned their attention to him at the same moment.

Obviously, these people all recognized Edwin and Malinda Julius Caesar's carriage.

They looked at Arthur walking down, and many people guessed Arthur's identity.

Especially the young ladies stared at Arthur's handsome face and quietly covered their mouths and chuckled.

The older ladies were much bolder. They gathered in groups and commented on Arthur.

The women's unusual movements naturally triggered a chain reaction among the men.

The older man just looked at this scene with a smile, as if he was reminiscing about his youth.

The young men, urged by hormones, stared at Arthur like cockfighting cocks.

Arthur, who was surrounded by everyone, was calm and composed.

A group of harmless people are just a bunch of pumpkins to Arthur.

Compared with these, he cared more about the lady of the long night.

Because, at this moment, he finally understood what Malinda Julius Caesar wanted to do!
