At this moment, Angel almost thought that he had returned to the time when he was still "Irene Watson", the day when all the Detectives were interfered with by the Desire Seed planted by "Desire Apostle", causing the situation to become chaotic.
No, I didn't notice any traces of Beyonder Ability... Did he act out of his own "desire"?
Angel carefully observed Baron Cinderas's expression, which was not Distortion, but just as if he had lost the ability to control himself, and thought of another possibility.
Is it the hint of "Spectator" or Hypnosis again that makes him behave differently than usual? No, maybe this multi-millionaire is like this in his own home, but he disguises it better outside, and the hidden "Spectator" takes advantage of this and allows him to briefly reveal his true nature...
Of course, Angel doesn't think there's anything wrong with being dark inside but pretending to be a normal person on the outside. As long as he can maintain this kind of "restraint", to others, he will be a Gentlemen who abides by etiquette.
The most important thing is to first stop this Baron who has obviously lost his self-control and was called "Charm" by Audrey and I...
The world in Angel's eyes seemed to slow down, and Cinderas's forward movement almost stopped. She was about to pull the ubiquitous silk thread to trip the other party's footsteps, when she suddenly found that the somewhat impatient Baron stepped on the bulge of the carpet that was pulled by his own footsteps, staggered, and fell to the ground.
I haven't had time to do it yet... Angel was stunned, and looked at Audrey beside him, and found that the latter was gently stroking Deep Blue Triangular Hairpin on his head. Although his expression was a little panicked, there was a faint smile in his green eyes.
She released "Luck" in Mystical Item, so the people nearby became more "unlucky"?
Angel suddenly understood, and at the same time, he concealed all the threads he controlled.
Being affected by illusory "misfortune" is easier to pass the official Beyonder's review than being tripped by a thread. If they look for clues that "Baron is affected by extraordinary power" in general, they will only end up with We will find Spectator who hinted at him, not us... Unexpectedly, "Justice" Miss has also grown into a reliable Beyonder!
she thought happily.
As Baron's head hit the ground hard, his body Distortion balled up due to pain, his bloodshot eyes gradually returned to normal, and he woke up from the desire hidden in his heart.
Bang - the door was pushed open violently. Baron's personal Male Servant and bodyguard had a serious look on his face. He put one hand on his waist and stopped the maid of Angel's family behind with the other, and asked:
"Baron, what happened?"
Judging from his ferocious appearance, it seemed that as soon as Baron gave the order, he would immediately take out his pistol and shoot down all the people present.
"I'm fine, I tripped myself accidentally, you guys go out first," Baron climbed up from the carpet, covering his red forehead and said, "Is that okay, you two Miss?"
He asked the last sentence to Angel and Audrey.
The two exchanged glances, Angel nodded and said:
"You guys go out first and close the door."
After the confused servant and the personal Male Servant closed the door again, Cinderas staggered back to his seat, covered his cheeks with his hands, the veins on the back of his hands were exposed, and some dull words came out from his palms:
"What was I doing just now..."
Sure enough, under the stimulation of pain, Baron has returned to normal. The sudden violent behavior just now was not of his own free will, but was triggered by some emotions buried in his heart in advance...
Now I should first let Audrey stabilize his emotions through comfort, and then I conduct the living Spirit Channeling, or the official Magic Mirror Divination... Angel immediately formed a complete picture in his mind plan, but immediately thought that he and Audrey have not revealed the specialness of being Beyonder at present, but if the investigation is conducted in depth, it will inevitably be hidden from the follow-up review of the official Beyonder, and...
... What if that "Spectator" is nearby to observe his results, or even right next to him?
Thinking of this, Angel felt cold sweat break out on her body. Her eyes flashed and she scanned the entire building through various mirrors in the villa, but no "extra" people were found.
No, I have "Spectator" phobia. As Demigod, my Spirituality intuition has no reaction, which means that there is no Beyonder around me that can threaten me, and using Mirror World to attack Physical World The detection of can also avoid the influence of "Psychological Invisibility". Unless "Angel of Imagination" Adam comes in person, even Demigod "Spectator" cannot hide under my nose...
She comforted herself and turned her gaze to Audrey beside her. The latter seemed to have just recovered from the shock and sat back in his seat. His tone was half dissatisfied and half comforting:
"Baron, maybe the alcohol just affected you, maybe Christine Miss's charm is too amazing, making you do something that is not Loen Gentlemen. I think you owe her a sincere apology."
Audrey's soft words reached Cinderas's ears, causing his tall but currently curled up body on the seat to sway. After a moment, Baron put down his hands covering his face and looked at Angel, his almost transparent eyes full of apology:
"I'm sorry, Miss Theresa, I, I did act irrationally just now. No excuse can hide my despicable heart. Thank you for not revealing all this to outsiders immediately and giving me some time to deal with it."
No, all this is not your fault. Rather, among the three people present, you are the most innocent and unlucky one... Angel pursed his lips and decided to seize the opportunity when Cinderas was full of guilt to find out how he was controlled by "Spectator".
"Baron, did you meet anyone else before you came to my house? Did you mention your plan to visit me?"
She continued to ask.
"Before this..." The guilt on Cinderas's face receded, revealing a look of reminiscence, "After breakfast, I met a jewelry designer to prepare a wedding anniversary gift for my wife. His name is Hilbert Alucard, and he has his own design studio at Empress Borough Studio, during the communication, I mentioned that I would come to visit in the afternoon... Before arriving at Miss Theresa's house, I stopped by Hampres's House, who is a member of my private club, um, but I didn't tell him about today's schedule, so as not to cause him to feel dissatisfied that I just stopped by to see him."
Hilbert, Hampres... Angel had no memory of the previous name, but she had heard of "Hampres". This person appeared in Audrey's operation to infiltrate "Psychology Alchemists", and he was probably a peripheral member of this secret organization.
But he was the one who didn't know Cinderas's itinerary. Could it be that he used his "suggestion" ability to plant hidden dangers in Baron's heart, causing him to "explode" in my house?
Angel was thinking, but found that Baron, who was sitting opposite, stood up slowly, his face was full of exhaustion, and he said in a low tone:
"I may indeed be a little drunk. I'm sorry, Miss Theresa. I'll stay on the balcony for a while and take a breath. Don't worry, whether you conceal what happened today or make it public, I will give you adequate compensation."
After that, he staggered away from the center of Reception Room, came to the attached balcony, covered his face, and turned himself into a sculpture in the sun.
He seems to have serious psychological trauma. Could it be that I guessed wrongly that he is really a Gentlemen who abides by etiquette and is very loyal to his wife? Well, judging from the teachings of Church of Storms, although they look down on women, they are actually putting themselves in the position of Protector. Doing such a thing would indeed violate their inner principles...
Angel muttered and looked at Audrey, who also had a melancholy look on his face, probably thinking of the same thing, and as "Spectator", she should be more sensitive to the changes in Baron's heart.
"Baron was probably asking for your opinion just now. Should you disclose this matter or hide it? What would you do, Christine?"
Audrey's words made Angel fall into deep thought.
From Cinderas's point of view, for the sake of his reputation, he should have hoped that this "accident" would end between the three of them. After all, in Loen, which is relatively conservative, even if the nobles have countless mistresses in private and engage in various activities in their private homes, at least they still put respect for women first.
For me, concealment is better than disclosure. "Christine Teresa" will undoubtedly use Baron Cinderas's guilt and compensation to achieve his goal of entering the upper class, and "Angel Granger" does not want to attract everyone's attention and expose his true identity...
But there are too many doubts about this whole thing. A Spectator who can make "hints" and "Hypnosis", let Baron Cinderas do such rude behavior in my house, just to suppress him and discredit him in the upper class society? It would be easier to achieve all this than to directly control him to perform a striptease at a noble dinner. After all, there is still the possibility that I will be silenced by Baron through money...
If it was aimed at me, it wouldn't have much effect. Even if I didn't use Beyonder Ability, as long as I shouted for help just now, the servants outside the door would immediately come in and stop Baron's behavior. It would only make him lose face, but it would not harm me.
Moreover, Baron's guilt was too simple. Normally, he should first suspect that the wine served to him had been tampered with, rather than that he could not control his emotions and desires... Thinking of this, Angel Spirituality was touched, and she followed the reminder and looked towards the balcony.
Baron Cinderas took off his coat on the ground, his belt had been loosened, and he was struggling to climb over the carved stone guardrail of the balcony.
Meeting Angel's gaze, the middle-aged Gentlemen smiled sadly and loosened his hands suddenly.
