“Seira, are you aware what brings us to the council in the present day?”

“Properly… I don’t know. Personally, I believe it’s as a result of we discovered the beast’s nest.”

Louis’ eyes softened at her reply.

“You bought it proper. This time, we will probably be transferring with a minority, not a military.”

“I assume the situation is horrible?”

“That’s proper.”

As Seira anticipated, Franto’s eyes could be planted on the temple or the imperial palace, and he or she nodded with out being stunned.

“I need to participate.”

For her, who needed to steal the stays of the nest, this was a possibility she couldn’t miss. The smaller the variety of folks, the better it will likely be to slide a couple of issues.

“What are you going to do Louis?”

“In fact,” he calmly answered as he swept his thumb over Seira’s chocolate powdered lips, after which put it in his mouth, “we should always go collectively.”

“Hmm… It’s a bit bitter.”

Seira stared blankly at him, sucking the chocolate from his fingers.

‘As anticipated, it’s a bit of… unusual?’

Was it as a result of they spent the evening collectively? It felt like one thing has modified. It’s the identical with bodily contact, and it’s the identical with turning into extraordinarily intimate.

‘Are we working towards prematurely?’

Quickly after getting off the carriage, they should act like earnest lovers, so trying wasn’t a nasty concept. Though Seira doubted whether or not she ought to.

Within the first place, their contract particularly mentioned that she should persuade everybody that her coronary heart belonged to Louis Franto.

‘Properly, it’s not dangerous to get used to it.’

It was quite a optimistic change, besides that one thing in her coronary heart saved tingling after she realized that she was seeing Louis and Aven overlapping. The stronger the alliance, the higher their contract could be.

“If that is so, are we sharing lodging?”

“…In case you do, you gained’t have the ability to present half of your abilities.”

“Solely Seira must sleep within the mattress. I’ll be on the ground.”

“I’m certain you’ll simply be wonderful.”

Louis burst into laughter at her sarcastic remarks. Seira was quite puzzled by the way in which he loved himself with out being apparent that he was pretending.

‘You actually prefer it.’

This type of jokes appeared to be Louis’ style. Seira thought it’d be finest that she remembered it when she’ll want it for future appearing.

Whereas they had been speaking, the carriage stopped in entrance of the meeting corridor. Louis, who stepped out of the carriage first, reached out his hand and escorted Seira.

The gown she wore uncovered a little bit of her pores and skin, becoming on her thighs to disclose the curves of her physique. It was a sublime design, however it hindered much less exercise.

‘There’ll most likely be extra events that I’d need to put on clothes…’ she grumbled silently.

A big shadow fell over her immediately. As she tried to take a step with a deep sigh about her scenario, the temper drastically modified.

“Seira.”

Prior to now, she’d have thought that it was merely an opportunity encounter, however now she knew higher. He should’ve arrived early and waited for her the entire time.

Seira regarded up at him and smiled.

“Good morning, Baron.”

Baron, who appeared to have dressed up in the present day, had his tooth clenched as if he was being strangled by his cravat. The explanation why his face was filled with anger and sorrow, a mixture of hostility and longing, was most likely due to the pheromones that caught on her.

“I’ve one thing to say.”

Louis who stood in his manner and mentioned, “The assembly will start quickly. Why don’t you discuss afterwards?”

“It gained’t take a lot of her time,” Baron replied, “It’s vital.”

“In that case, all of the extra so, you have to do it later.”

Earlier than Seira may say something, Louis had minimize Baron’s supply and rejected him. She was anxious that Baron would possibly seize Louis by his collar and throw him at his repeated refusals, however she was stunned to listen to what he mentioned subsequent.

“Alright,” Baron sighed, “I’ll do as you say, so get out of the way in which for now.”

Though he was drastically aggravated, Baron stepped again. Louis stepped apart barely as if happy with Baron’s response.

Coming shut sufficient to the touch her toes, Baron leaned in and whispered in Seira’s ears as he held her wrist for a second and let it go, “Maintain this simply in case.”

Seira couldn’t assist however stare at him as he turned and walked away from them.

The circulation of magic that she felt from the bracelet he placed on her wrist was uncommon. After elevating her powers and calculating it, Seira lastly figured it out.

A silver sword – Moor.

It was a sword recognized to have the ability to minimize off iron as if it was a vegetable. The unique look would’ve been a dagger a couple of centimeter lengthy, however it appeared to have been enchanted with conversion magic to be simple to hold.

‘I believe I’ve heard that it was saved within the Jeff’s treasury.’

It was too beneficial to borrow.

Nonetheless, Seira pursued Baron and didn’t return it. She knew it was shameless, however it was a determined means to guard oneself when one couldn’t use energy.

‘Let’s preserve it for a couple of days and return it instantly.’

Even so, she had determined to seek out Illuminum, the household heirloom of Askan.
