The nobles in the hall danced to the music, and well-trained attendants stood by the sidelines, ready at any moment.

The music is classical and melodious, which can make people feel drowsy, and if you don't have a certain amount of musical literacy, you may not be able to step on the beat.

Many aristocrats liked this tune because it reflected their nobility and distinctiveness, and if anyone didn't get the beat right at such a high-profile ball, he might be laughed at by others.

“...... Mr. Calvin, this is the third time you've stepped on my foot!" said Alyssa Ken whispering in Calvin's ear, gritting her teeth.

"Oh, really? That's a shame. ”

Although he said so, Calvin did not show the slightest apology, but was unusually frank.

If you just look at the indifferent smile on his face and don't look at the messy and error-ridden movements, maybe someone will think he dances well.

Duke Ken's second daughter chuckled in pain, "You don't have to be so careful, I didn't 'invite' you to dance so that you could become an arrowhead, I just had something to say to you......"

"I didn't care. Calvin replied with a chuckle.

Alyssa Ken frowned slightly, her silver teeth clenched, this minister was so ungentlemanly that he couldn't help even a little calculation.

Looking at the look on this lady's face, Calvin knew that she had misunderstood, in fact, he really couldn't dance well, and if he didn't know that this Duke Ken's second daughter had something to say to him, he wouldn't have accepted this invitation.

I'm afraid that after tonight, he will become a laughing stock for the nobles of the imperial capital.

Calvin still smiled, and stepped on Alyssa's feet again without paying attention, Alyssa's delicate face instantly reddened, if it weren't for her noble upbringing that prevented her from doing such rude things, she would have already thrown the hateful mage in front of her to the ground with an over-the-shoulder fall!

Taking a deep breath, Elisa's face regained a smile, "Did you know Mr. Calvin, that there is a Mind Flayer who has infiltrated the Imperial Capital......

Calvin's expression froze, and then his lips opened and closed silently, and Elisa only felt a breeze blowing on her face, and the hands holding her arms became stronger, and her steps became brisk at the same time.

"Where did you hear about this?" Calvin asked in a deep voice.

Alyssa was only stunned for a moment, then reacted, pursed her lips and smiled, "From where...... Apparently, Mr. Calvin, you have also known the news, that is, you have been in frequent contact with us 'old nobles' these days not to get more patronage from us, but to probe the devil among us?"

Without the help of the nobles, it would be impossible for the Mind Flayer to infiltrate the Imperial Capital.

Although the Ogordon Empire is very resistant to 'magic', as a mage, there is one thing Calvin knows best.

Many people in this empire are resistant to magic, but in order to better counter 'magic', they will train some loyal people to study magic, just like Calvin himself!

He was originally one of those children who were raised, but his teacher thought that he was more promising as an 'inventor', so he placed him in the manufacturing department, and then he divided the manufacturing department into two parts with the support of His Majesty - this is the origin of the 'manufacturing department' and the 'research and development department'.

In the imperial capital, there is a huge mystery, a mystery that not many people know about.

This Mystery Lock is able to monitor all traces of spell casting in the Imperial Capital, and anyone who casts a spell here without permission will be sure to be detected.

So far, not many people have been able to blend into the imperial capital, unless there are spies!

That's why Gregory was so surprised and worried when he told him about it.

The nobles of the O'Gordon Empire are the wealthiest group on the continent, and the trinkets and props they carry with protective magic can definitely be a tenth of their body weight.

Although not every aristocrat was able to be so wealthy, in reality it was not much different.

Calvin has a 'charter mark' on him, and he is one of the few people in the imperial capital who can directly cast spells without applying for it, and he doesn't even need to write a report after the fact, because His Majesty has enough trust in him.

But other than that, anyone else wants to cast a spell—even if it's a 'psychic ability,' it's easy to detect.

Under such a tight defense, it is absolutely impossible for the Mind Flayer to control the nobles, so there is only one way for them to infiltrate the imperial capital - cooperation!

Calvin had already noticed that there were ghosts among the nobles, and Gregory didn't think that the nobles near the construction site could be controlled by the Mind Flayer by chance, and he went out this time to test the reaction of the nobles.

Now that the verification has been completed, judging from the current situation, there are indeed nobles who are dissatisfied with His Majesty's actions.

In particular, things like 'railways' and 'steam trains' were in their eyes, and this was one of the ways in which Caesar XIII controlled them.

The nobles were unscrupulous, even demons or demons were able to cooperate, so Calvin and Gregory were not surprised by this, the only thing that made Calvin a little puzzled was why Gregory was able to get such news?

Even the 'Sleepless Eye' didn't know about it, so why did Gregory know?

This was just a previous doubt, and now Calvin added a new doubt to his heart - why did Alyssa Ken, the second daughter of Duke Ken, find her and say such a thing?

These thoughts flashed through his mind, and Calvin whispered, "Miss Elisa, you should go and say these words to the person who has the Sleepless Eye......"

"Of course I do. Alyssa pursed her lips contemptuously, "But not even Sleepless Eye has 'learned' the news now—do you still think Sleepless Eye can be trusted?"

Calvin was silent.

He had some guesses, but he didn't draw conclusions, and now Alisa Ken's words helped him fill a hole in his heart.

"But how do you know that the Sleepless Eye is not credible?" After a moment of silence, Calvin asked again, "What do you know, and why did you find me?"

Alyssa Ken raised her head slightly, and Calvin also lowered her head just in time, and the two of them looked at each other.

She stared at those deep eyes, and suddenly sighed: "Father wants me to marry you......"

Calvin's heart tightened, and his movements suddenly became flustered, but fortunately, with the support of magic, he did not clumsily step on the duke's second daughter's feet again at such a time.

"That's a feat!" Alyssa Ken whispered.

Calvin gritted his teeth, his arms tense, but his hands had little strength.

He understood why Duke Ken had invited him to this banquet!

There is no need to save a fool like Boudia Ken, that was not Duke Ken's purpose from the beginning, what this Duke wanted was to let him as a 'new noble' merge with the old noble, so that his majesty's power and majesty could be weakened.

Calvin took a few deep breaths before turning his attention to something else.

"You've known how the Mind Flayer infiltrated the Imperial Capital, and where it is now?" Calvin asked, frowning.

“...... There are just a few clues. ”

No other answer was needed, and this answer alone sent Calvin chills.

Seeing the hideous look on Calvin's face, Alyssa Ken panicked a little and hurriedly remedied, "I only learned about this recently!"

How much can these old aristocrats throw away for the sake of power?

Looking at Alyssa Ken's delicate face with panic, Calvin was cold.

“...... Tell me!"

With that, Calvin's mouth pursed tightly, and his face turned ugly.

He longed to leave this filthy place now, and now he looked at the people around him, and suddenly felt that every pattern on their clothes was a living human life.

It's disgusting, it's infuriating!

...... However, he needs this information, and he needs to find out the inner ghost along with the Mind Flayer!

Hearing this, Alyssa Ken subconsciously took a deep breath, raised her chin, and closed her eyes.

"Kiss me!"

Just in time, the music ends completely after a high pitch, and everyone stops at this point.

The smiling Duke Ken was sweating profusely after dancing with his niece, but instead of taking the handkerchief handed by the maid, he turned his head to look in the direction of his daughter and Calvin.

At this moment, Calvin's mind went blank.

He had never experienced anything like this, so he was a little overwhelmed and unaware that many people had already set their sights on their side.

It was only after Alyssa Ken twisted his arm with two fingers that he woke up and realized that the music had stopped......

He, is there any other option?

Duke Ken's smile grew brighter and he took the lead in applauding. (https:)
