Chereads / Witcher:Blood Sequences / Chapter 221 - Curiosity

Chapter 221 - Curiosity

A few days later in the evening, the Osiris mansion.

"Missy, you've found out what you wanted to find out, do you want to hear it now or report back tomorrow?"

"Read it to me now."

The butler, whose temples were a little gray, had only to push open the door of the room with a contemplative face.

Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, Miss Luna-sama was dressed in a silk nightgown, biting a ribbon on her half-exposed white-toothed lips, and with her hands raised behind her head, she was pulling back a bedtime hairstyle.

Hearing no movement at her side for a long time, she twisted her head curiously.

"What happened to you, Mr. Ford?"

The butler thinking about something came back to his senses, "Ohhhh, sorry, the old man suddenly wandered off."

He cleared his throat and picked up the book in his hand to read:

"Eleazar, 21 years old, born in the town of Crowe, South County, raised by a single parent, father died a year ago, and his hometown, completely wiped out in a catastrophe a month ago, lapsed domicile, has a small amount of assets in the Bank of the Golden Shield, and is now in a church welfare facility..."

"Fina, 22 years old, born in the town of Crowe, South County, also raised in a single family, suspected to be the former's fiance, the two grew up with a close demeanor, she seems to be involved in the disaster that wiped out her hometown town, and is now wanted by the officials and her whereabouts are unknown."

"Evelea, 19 years old, born in the village of Aldo in the North, suspected to be the former's affair girlfriend, but her real identity is a member of the Demon Thieves, who ran rampant all over the city some time ago, and is likewise wanted by the officials, whose whereabouts are now unknown."

Luna was stunned after hearing those tragic encounters.

Is that why you can be that strong inside after all those blows?

The butler put away the book, raised his head, and said silently, "Missy, the old man suggests that you do not deal with any of these three, and the latter two it would be better for you to inform the police as soon as possible if you have heard anything."

Luna deflated her mouth in dissatisfaction, "But Eleazar-san has saved me twice, so that's not enough to trust him?"

"His name wasn't on the list of rescuers, and if he's one of those no-honor people..."

Butler Ford frowned, "All the more reason to stay away."

Luna, who had signed a non-disclosure agreement with the officials, pursed her lips and didn't tell Eleazar's classmates extraordinary things.

The kind of secret that can't be discussed with outsiders fills her heart with anguish.

Then as soon as he flung himself into the big velvet bed, "I'm going to sleep!"

Ford's butler sighed, and only curtsied and excused himself, taking the door of the room with him in the process.

His Lordship's worst fears had come true.

Finally, someone breaks through Missy's aura of suppression...

...

Instead of scaring her, Eleazar's remark sparked greater curiosity.

In the days that followed, Luna began to keep an eye on the figure.

Watching him occasionally sit on a bench and stare, seeing him sit alone in the dining hall eating, taking out that silver pot for a shallow drink now and then, and sometimes disappearing for days at a time, walking back from the outside with a tired look on his face.

The student government office is also his daily destination.

Luna trailed over to eavesdrop a few times, but all she could hear from inside were sneers and sarcasm, and sometimes the sound of fighting.

"Dragon seed material isn't easy to find at all, is it?"

Qishi looked at the Witcher, who was flipping through the dossier, with a wry smile.

Eleazar looks apathetic as he flips through the North's transcendent event file, then looks up.

"No, these reports of extraordinary deeds are all from years ago, if they were man-made, those people would have run away long ago, these are all dead cases!"

Qishi rambled on, "Someone else can take care of a transcendental event with visible signs, they don't need you."

"Sooner or later you're going to have to investigate the curse of the Merlin family anyway, so get used to this rhythm first."

Gripping the pile of files that were merely an afterthought record of suspected transcendent deeds, Eleazar stood up with an expressionless face.

Qishi grinned and clasped his hands, "What, you want to start a war again?"

Title: Virgin

Strength: Legendary rank, completed at least 3 rituals

Sequence: Acolyte

Rank: Unknown

This is the strength of the opponent that Eleazar has tried out during this time.

He had the Light Extinguishing trait, and it wasn't true that his opponent couldn't help himself, but they had three ritual progresses lying around, so in reality, he couldn't help his opponent either.

And it was inappropriate to start a fight today when his schoolmate came snooping around again, thought as he turned around with heavy footsteps and opened the office door.

In the corridor, the slightly flustered-faced Luna-senpai was standing in front of a window not far away and was pretending to look at the scenery below.

Eleazar sighed and closed the door to the room behind him and walked over.

"What are you doing here, schoolteacher."

"Ah! What a coincidence, Eleazar-san."

Luna forced herself to turn her head and push on the new pair of interference lenses.

"I just finished delivering something to my teacher, and I couldn't help but look at the firethorn tree down there for a while when I saw it."

"Look, it's already growing pink flower drums, and I heard it's going to bloom in a month~"

Eleazar followed her line of sight and said absently, "So is the enjoyment over, can we go yet?"

"Ohhhh, let's go then!"

Luna turned around jitterily, keeping a suitable distance to walk beside him, and glanced again at the paper in her hand.

"Mr. Eleazar, do you still work for the student council?"

"The president is the church's representative on campus, and I work for the church."

"So..."

Thinking back to the theological organization that rarely developed believers, but had an inexplicably solid and vaguely frightening social status, Luna asked again, cautiously, "Is there a God in this world?"

Eleazar paused directly and turned toward her very seriously:

"Never speculate maliciously!"

"It's okay for other people to say whatever they want, to denigrate however they want, but you, our kind of people, absolutely not!"

Luna was a little taken aback and nodded her head back and forth.

"And what would be the correct attitude for me to use?"

"Just keep that awe of the unknown."

Seemingly feeling that his tone was a bit heavy, Eleazar fell silent for a moment. "I'm sorry, there are some things I can't clarify, so this is the only way to warn you."

Luna lowered her head, "Actually, you could have told me more carefully..."

"I'll tell you when the time is right..." Eleazar's tone had a sudden hint of helplessness.

"Oh~"

Noticing that they seemed to be in a good mood, Luna couldn't help but grab the corner of his coat and incline her head, looking at the small flowers on the side of the road and whispering:

"I hear there's a new dessert store over on French Street, and it's said to be very popular."

"Would you mind accompanying me for a taste?"

Eleazar nodded casually, "Let's go then."

The two then sat in an open-air confectioner's store by the side of the road in the golden-strewn evening sunshine.

Eleazar sipped his blend of coffee as he looked at the file.

Luna: "The cream here is so good~"

Eleazar: "Uh-huh."

Luna: "Honey is sweet too~"

Eleazar: "Uh-huh."

Luna: "By the way, my father would like to thank you for something, why don't you come over to my house this weekend."

Eleazar: "Uh-huh."

Luna: "Then it's a deal oh~"

Eleazar: "Huh?"
