"I guess you have your own purpose in choosing to join Demoness Sect again, right?"
Lola doesn't seem to care, which makes Angel feel strange. This person is not as afraid and disgusted with the Demoness Sect as he showed before?
Could it be that while she was pretending to be escaping from the Demoness Sect, she was actually still working for them?
After a few pleasantries, Angel helped her perform a divination as usual. The information Lola handed over this time belonged to a young viscount. He inherited his father's title, territory and industry when he was young. He was very popular in Backlund's social circle.
She looked at the name of the viscount and was surprised to find that it was the organizer of the salon she attended last week with Sevillea, Viscount Glaint.
Being targeted by two "Demoness of Pleasure" one after another, is there really something special about him?
Suppressing his doubts, Angel used Pendulum Divination to perform divination. Soon, the counterclockwise rotating citrine indicated that there was no possibility for him and Ms. Lola.
"Maybe you should change your goals."
She snickered and pushed Viscount Glaint's information back to Lola, who took it without feeling frustrated and seemed to be really thinking about Angel's suggestion.
"By the way, Ms. Lola, since you are also Beyonder, why don't you perform divination for yourself?"
She had this question after she saw Lola last time and confirmed that the other person was "Demoness of Pleasure". As Sequence, the successor of Witch, Demoness of Pleasure should be more proficient in Magic Mirror Divination and be proficient in other types of divination. There is no need to ask her, Witch, for help.
"You should know that divination requires communication with Spirit World," Lola said leisurely. Seeing Angel nodded, he continued, "I haven't done divination for a long time, especially Magic Mirror Divination. Once I communicate with Spirit World through the mirror, it is likely that someone will sense it and confirm my location."
"Who did you mess with?"
Angel asked curiously.
It sounds like he is a very powerful person. He may have reached High Sequence and can directly search for the whereabouts of Lola through Spirit World.
"An old immortal guy, huh, maybe that guy has discovered me a long time ago, and now he is just watching how I struggle Backlund..."
Lola's voice lost its usual gentleness and melodiousness, and took on a hint of gloom, but then her expression became sunny again, and the activated Charm ability even made Angel dare not look directly at her.
"Let's not mention this. I just passed by to relax, not to talk about such trivial matters."
"Then let's change the topic." Seeing that Lola was unwilling to mention the matter, Angel asked another question, "The Mr. O'Neill who came to perform divination on Saturday is the one whose daughter was kidnapped. Was it you who introduced him?"
"Who? Oh, it's him..." Lola even thought about it for a moment before remembering the poor gentleman. "I just found out about it while chatting with others. I can't use divination, so I mentioned you and suggested that he come over and give it a try."
"What about his daughter? Has she been found?"
"I don't know about this, but he did go to 'Bravehearts Bar'. The intelligence dealer there knows several people from Rose School, and he can also contact a Beyonder party. I think he should be able to get help."
Rose School? It seemed to be a secret organization that existed at the beginning of this era. It was famous for its bloody sacrificial methods. It originally only developed in the Southern Continent. However, after the Southern Continent was colonized, it was attacked by the Orthodox Sect. Although its strength was weakened, it also spread to the North Continent.
"But with your attitude, it seems that the purpose of introducing him here was not to help Mr. O'Neill. You can hardly even remember him?"
Angel asked with a frown.
"My purpose? I just gave you a small test. It seems that you did well."
"Test? What you did is similar to what Demoness Sect did..." Angel sighed, "Then did I pass my 'test'?"
Lola smiled sweetly, picked up the wide-brimmed hat on the table, and put it on his head, hiding his black hair and face.
"That remains to be seen. Well, it's time for me to leave. You know, the beautiful ladies at Backlund are always busy... Oh, by the way," she seemed to think of something again, stopped when she walked to the door, turned her head and said, " A little news for you, Backlund seems to have another group of people investigating you, not the guys from the Demoness Sect, but some Bounty Hunter and Detective."
"They are looking for a woman who came from Tingen City to Backlund. She is Beyonder of the 'Assassin' Pathway. She is over 1.75 meters tall. As soon as I saw this information, you were the first person I thought of."
Someone is looking for me?
When Angel heard the information described by Lola, he immediately thought of Bounty Hunter, who had been in contact with Mr. A at the rally and was later identified as Xio Derecha. She also asked herself to find such a woman. At that time, she even laughed and said that no one could find this information...
Now after being reminded by Lola, Angel discovered that he very much matched the description of the information.
Who would have thought that the first missing person request received at Backlund would be for him? In this way of thinking, she simply failed to connect the information with herself.
It just so happened that I needed to go to Sevillea's home this evening to receive this week's mission information and ask for intelligence. Maybe I could meet Xio who was looking for me at the viscount's salon soon.
It seems it's time to investigate this Bounty Hunter, at least to know who is issuing the commission...
On the outskirts of Empress Borough, in the private estate of the Audrey Hall.
Audrey is leading his Golden Retriever, led by the steward in charge of this manor, to the storage room where large goods are stored.
"The goods transferred from Miss, Enmat Harbor to Pritz Harbor were urgently shipped early this morning. They are all placed in this room. Please take a look."
Leaving the maid outside the door, she took Susie into the storage room and half-jokingly said to her dog:
"Susie, these are all gifts for you."
"Woof?"
Susie would only make such a sound when there were outsiders, but Audrey could still hear a hint of doubt.
Approaching the huge storage room, Audrey saw the gift that her brother Alfred had found for her from East Balam:
It was a giant lizard that was three meters long, and its skin showed different colors as the light changed. Even if it had lost its breath and was lying lifelessly on the ground, it was still as high as Audrey's knees.
And there are two of them!
"Woof?"
Susie made a confused sound again and tilted his head to look at his master.
The latter also looked puzzled and looked at Susie, then at the butler standing by.
What she wanted was the complete pituitary gland of Seven-Colored Lizard Dragon, and she had also received one from Hanged Man, which was a palm-sized Beyonder Ingredients that kept changing its surface color.
In her mind, she had never established the connection between "Beyonder Ingredients" and "Seven-Colored Lizard Dragon itself", so she almost lost her cool in front of this animal that was bigger than her.
Fortunately, she had the excellent qualities of Spectator Pathway, and quickly controlled her expression, politely asked the housekeeper to wait outside the door, and then closed the door.
"Huh, I didn't expect that my brother would send back a whole lizard. Well, two whole ones..."
She looked at Susie at her feet.
"Susie, this is a gift for you, two Seven-Colored Lizard Dragon, one's pituitary gland is Main Materials of Potion, and the other one can be changed to another Main Materials. Maybe in a few days, you can be promoted to Sequence 8."
"But," a smile appeared on the corner of Audrey's mouth, making Susie tilt its head back and look a little scared, "You have to help me complete one thing, and then I will help you exchange materials and configure Potion."
"Well, Viscount Glaint will have another salon tomorrow afternoon. He invited me as usual, and I will attend as scheduled. Your task is to find the Miss Irene from last week, write down her appearance in detail, and try to draw her as much as possible even with your claws!"
"Woah..."
Susie shrank his neck and whimpered, unable to even say Loenese, which he had mastered recently.
"Madam went to North Borough to attend a dinner party. She may not come back until late at night. She asked me to give you this letter."
The butler, who was wearing a tuxedo and his hair was meticulously styled, said, handing an envelope to Angel.
In front of the housekeeper, she opened the envelope and took out the letter inside. Not surprisingly, she saw the instructions to attend the Viscount Glaint salon tomorrow.
But the last sentence made her confused.
"You want me to stop wearing the original dress and put on a new one?" she repeated to the housekeeper, "Is this really what Mrs. Sevillea ordered?"
"Yes, she said that always wearing the same outfit in the salon would make other guests mistakenly think that Landon Family is in financial crisis."
But I bought it for 20 pounds!
And I am not a Landon Family person. Besides, I do have a financial crisis...
Angel was a little speechless, but knew that there was no point in arguing with the housekeeper, so he stuffed the letter back into the envelope and left angrily.
Next time, I must ask her for reimbursement next time!
Tomorrow is October 1st. As Demoness who stopped updating, I was invited to participate in October Hiatus Festival held by Qidian. On that day... what? No such festival? That's okay.
