It feels like every Demigod in Backlund I meet recognizes me as Demoness. How come no one suspects that "Justice" Miss is Demoness? Disregarding the ability of "Charm", her appearance is not much different from High Sequence Witch...
Angel cursed, sat upright slightly, moved his lips slightly, his eyes looked surprised and panicked, and he kept looking at the exits of the room, such as windows and doors, as if his identity had been revealed, as if he was considering answering truthfully, covering up, or running away.
But what she was thinking about was the source of the other party's "intelligence".
After several contacts and private investigations at Trier, Sander of Veteran Officers Club should already know that I am Beyonder, but no Confirm Pathway and Sequence... He may have judged that my Sequence is not high, but directly identifying me as Demoness is too arbitrary.
Royal Advisor, "Psychology Alchemists" Review Council committee member Hvin Rambis identified me as "Pleasure" because of my misleading Demoness, he is the most likely source of information, but if Georgina Augustus knows Rambis, he can completely let this "Manipulator" meet with me and take something from me under the power of suggestion. There is no need to go to such trouble to arrange a midnight meeting...
Or maybe she has her own news channel? This is nothing to a Duke, not to mention she has military connections, and MI9 went to Trier to find the clues I left, and it would be easy to verify my false identity... Angel thought about it, and the expression on his face changed again, from suspicion and struggle to calmness, as if he had given up the struggle.
Then, she asked in a sweet and soft voice with a little Charm power:
"How did you figure it out?"
At the same time, her sitting posture also changed slightly, and she bowed slightly, revealing a large amount of white on her neck and collarbone above the dress. Her arms were placed close to both sides of her body to increase her sense of security, highlighting the curves of her chest, exuding a seductive temperament that made it difficult to look away.
But all this does not exceed the limit of one "Pleasure" Demoness, and at the same time leaves room for the other party to imagine towards "Affliction" Demoness.
For the same Sequence Beyonder, Charm of this level may be able to tolerate it on the surface just like the Golden Mask man who brought her to the manor, but there is a gradually rising desire in his heart, but for a Demigod, it is just a slightly clumsy performance.
"Based on your performance after coming to Backlund, and Sander's evaluation of you... Of course, after meeting you, I confirmed my guess."
Georgina was unmoved as expected. He just watched Angel's "performance" with great interest with his blue eyes. After a moment, he chuckled and replied with a voice with a hint of oppression.
"Okay, stop your behavior, I won't do anything to you."
That sense of majesty instantly filled the entire Reception Room. Angel pretended to resist for a moment and immediately lowered his head.
If you plan to do anything to me, what you have to face is not "Demoness of Pleasure Christine", but "Golden Queen Angelica"... But now it can be confirmed that she relies on "Arbiter" Pathway's Demigod ability confirmed that I am Beyonder, and with the help of Sander's evaluation and my appearance and performance, it was deduced that I am roughly Demoness at the level of "Pleasure"...
As a practitioner of order, although this "Arbiter" Demigod saw that I was Beyonder, he obviously did not realize that I was also standing in the same "position" as her. There should be Anti-Divination, Hidden Holy Emblem and "Fool" Mr. Angel's blessing was taking effect at the same time... Angel muttered silently, stopped "Charm", straightened his sitting posture, took a deep breath, and showed a bright but not magical smile again on his face, nodded and said:
"I am indeed a 'Pleasure' Demoness, but I am not a member of 'Demoness Sect', and I will never do anything detrimental to the kingdom. In fact, if you know everything about me in Trier, you should know that I escaped from there."
"Ha, this is why I see you here. If you are indeed a 'Demoness Sect' person, what appears at your door is not a carriage, but a team of military Beyonder."
Georgina chuckled, and the real sense of oppression in her eyes disappeared, and instead showed the Gentle Beauty dignity of a mature woman. She even had a hint of charm against the backdrop of the black evening dress that clung to her skin.
It's hard to believe that this peer of Duchess and King is over fifty years old. She should have been promoted to Demigod a long time ago, and because of the role of Potion and divinity, she has maintained the peak of physical function and appearance. Therefore, she retired twenty years ago and disappeared from the public eye. Otherwise, if she steps forward now, she will be mistaken for her daughter...
Angel suddenly thought of the many nobles in the kingdom who rarely participated in social activities at a young age, and even handed over their positions as members of the House of Lords to their descendants, and suspected that some of them had become Demigod like Georgina, and took the initiative to fade out of the public eye.
As for what Georgina said, it also confirmed Angel's speculation that she did not belong to the royal family faction that cooperated with "Demoness Sect".
"So, Master Duke, what exactly do you want to see me for?"
Thoughts in his mind continued to surge, Angel asked cautiously, showing the curiosity that should be expected after barely confirming his personal safety.
And she didn't think that Duchess called her here just to confirm the identity of "Demoness".
Georgina did not answer immediately, but stretched out his hand to pour himself a cup of black tea. His movements were natural and skillful, letting Angel know that this Duchess was not a pampered person who needed a servant to do everything.
Amidst the lingering fragrance, she answered:
"First of all, I arranged for Sander to let you go to Gargas Archipelago to sell arms. You are very efficient in doing things and the results are good. Sander praises you very much, which arouses my concern. Interest; secondly, among the few people who deal with overseas affairs, you are the only woman. Of course, among Beyonder, gender is not the main factor in determining power, but the two reasons combined made me decide to meet you once."
This reason is not very sufficient. Compared with Duke's wealth calculated in millions of pounds, a business of ten thousand pounds is not important. Even if it involves instigating rebellion against Feysac's overseas colonies and supporting local rebels and pirates, it is enough for an agent like Sander to come forward... Angel pondered, waiting for the other party's follow-up words.
"In addition, we also want to cooperate with you at a deeper level, which means that you will belong to the Loen Military system, accept the protection of the military, and receive preferential treatment in many things... Of course, what you have to pay is your loyalty and the relationships that belong to you in Intis and Bayam."
Seeing her silence, Georgina Augustus added.
They... This means that this Demigod represents not only himself, but also perhaps a certain faction of the royal family and the military. Is this related to the "disagreement within the royal family" that Lola said? In addition, the conditions she proposed seemed very generous, but they pointed directly at the network behind me, which is Sauron Family's smuggling network. Is it to connect with Intis's Former Royal Family Sauron family, or does she have other ideas...
"Which part do you mean?"
Angel asked after considering it.
"Everything, including your relationship with Trier, the channels owned by the Sauron Family, and...'Red Haired Woman'."
Red Haired Woman!
Angel suddenly realized that in order to ensure safety, the other party must have followed this not-so-big trade all the way. Knowing that the maritime part was completed by Helene and "Red Haired Woman" did not surprise her. However, this ship was only manufactured and launched for just half a year, and its members were not well-known small cargo ships. The only reason why it came into Duchess's sight was probably the influence of a certain rumor at sea.
That is, "Red Haired Woman" belongs to one of the recently rising kings of the sea, "Golden Queen", owns a Ghost Warship Angelica Zaki left behind by Fourth Epoch.
Is the purpose of Georgina Augustus and the royal family members and military forces behind her actually to contact "Golden Queen"?
For the sake of a Ghost Ship that is likely to have the power of Angel and its temporary owner, it makes sense for a Duchess to take the initiative to contact me. The other Trier relationships and the Sauron family's channels are probably just excuses to deceive others... Angel is established After thinking about this, I subconsciously compared my current appearance with "Angelica Zaki" on the wanted poster. I found that the changes in hair color and eye distance, as well as some deliberate changes in movements and expressions in the three months since Backlund, made the two people who clearly have purple eyes only look 45% alike. In addition, the portrait on the wanted poster itself was distorted, making it difficult for people to recognize it.
Of course, Georgina is probably eyeing "Queen Anne's Revenge", and Angelica is just an accessory. This ship, Fourth Epoch Trensoest Empire, was built with Beyonder Characteristic of "Balancer" as the core. Since leaving that uninhabited desert, Ghost Ship The appearance of the island in front of the world has attracted the prying eyes of countless forces. "King of the Five Seas" Nast wants to use it to find and occupy "Ghost Empire". The military and the church want to find it, conquer it, or at least reclaim the characteristics of Angel. Now, Georgina and the royal family she represents seem to be eyeing it.
"I understand, Mr. Duke," Angel answered first, stabilized the other party, and then continued to ask, "It seems that I have no right to refuse, and this is indeed conducive to my development in Backlund... So what should I do?"
She had actually expected it in her heart, but seeing Georgina take out a pen and paper as if prepared, writing something quickly on the coffee table between the two of them, feeling the pressure constantly emerging from the tip of the pen, and the golden light bursting out, she still felt a sense of absurdity.
Half a year after signing contracts with "Balancer" and "Queen Anne's Revenge", he had to sign a contract with mystical validity with another "Arbiter" Demigod because of this Ghost Ship.
