"Mr. Ronald, I'm sorry it's so late......"

"Will you go back in our carriage?"

“……”

"The carriage doesn't have to be."

"I also have a lot of gains today, and I want to take a walk on the way back."

“……”

An hour later, Ronald exchanged a few polite words with the old butler Aller, and then left the estate where Leticia lived alone.

Nodding slightly to the investigators around him.

As Ronald walked away, his mind was still thinking about what had just happened.

The protective ability of the [Guardian Angel] is really useful.

When the countess was ready to do something with her technique, the hidden danger was immediately eliminated.

It's a pity that it was excluded at the same time.

And the environment in which Ronald and Leticia were at the time.

But after all, she is a well-informed countess, and after the initial embarrassment, before Ronald even has come up with the words she has prepared, Leticia takes the initiative to explain that her spells are just small tricks to arouse people's emotions.

In fact, even if they are defenseless, the affected person will not be harmed in any way.

For this statement......

Ronald expressed understanding on the surface, but in fact, he could only express regret whether he believed it or not.

And such a brief episode came out.

Leticia probably didn't have much interest in regenerating incidents, so she simply changed her attitude and seriously had some mysterious knowledge exchanges with Ronald.

Just over half an hour of conversation.

Both Laeticia and Ronald have a new understanding of the person in front of them.

Although her private life is not very promising, she is based at the top of the social structure of a kingdom, and her knowledge of the caster is very unique.

From the point of view of the ruling class.

When she looks at the mysterious person, she doesn't deal with it with the eyes of 'this person is strong', but with the question of 'what will be the result of this person's presence here'.

Although the two views overlap to a certain extent in concept.

But in practice, the reactions and decisions brought are absolutely different levels.

Through this temptation and understanding.

Ronald also recognized some of the ideas at the top of this world society.

On the other hand, Laeticia, the countess's senses for Ronald have also changed to a great extent.

For her, at first Ronald may have been just a happy attitude.

However, after a few words, Ronald, who had both the Great Witch's careful communication, the knowledge reserve of the earth, the information of the [Book Research Society], and some documents of the [Ginkgo Biloba Business Alliance] and the Investigation Bureau, directly gave her a new understanding that she had never had before.

In Laeticia's experience.

She often deals with core members of a school, or a group of dead men who have sworn allegiance to the crown and have a long history.

Ronald is a holder of the canon with complex and diverse knowledge.

It directly caused her to have a change in her attitude.

The man in front of her can't be regarded as an ordinary 'prey', this is a rare resource that needs to be seriously wooed by her, and if possible, it is best to bring it back to the country and work for her!

So after setting the right attitude.

Leticia didn't want to be bored by certain details.

After more than half an hour of conversation, Leticia instructed her butler Ale to send Ronald away respectfully.

But Ronald himself really wanted to take a walk.

That's why I dismissed the other party's kindness.

“……”

Leave the organ area against the night sky.

Ronald walked leisurely in the direction of home, while his mind was still preparing for his attitude when he came into contact with Leticia in the future.

Through tonight's exchange.

The 'beauty plan' formulated before can basically be completely discarded.

Using your knowledge and brains to show your value is the best choice to have a good relationship with this countess.

There was silence along the way.

And then just after Ronald gathered his thoughts and had just arrived at the riverbank.

His deep gray pupils shrank slightly.

"Hmmm......"

Ronald didn't shut down the 'Fury' force reconnaissance along the way.

So at this moment, he clearly sensed that someone in the distance was spying on him with full killing intent.

So clear and straightforward, and then very abrupt hostility.

Ronald really hasn't met it in a few days.

Is it because the people of the [Nine Rings Secret Society] can't help but want to try it, or is there a cult warlock who hasn't heard the news for a long time, and maybe even the revenge of the [Primordial Witch Society]?

There was a subtle expression on his face.

Ronald snapped his fingers lightly and then kept his walking path unchanged.

Dealing with the average mysterious side spellcaster, he can only say that he can now say that he can catch it.

At this moment, he approached the other party quietly with a disguised expression, and he just tried not to let the enemy escape as much as possible.

Quiet night.

Above the dark streets.

Ronald walks home as he closes the distance between himself and the enemy who ambushes him.

However, it wasn't until the two of them came to the nearest place.

The ambusher still didn't move.

In the end, until the moment when the positions of the two of them were staggered again by about 100 meters.

The ambusher has made a move!

The spell that had long been ready to be launched was attached to a throwing knife, and he aimed at the undefensible position behind Ronald's back, and then threw the throwing knife in his hand with all his strength.

Whoosh –

A sharp cold blade pierced the air.

Flew straight towards Ronald's heart.

However, what followed was a scene that made the assassin unbelievable.

Obviously, his back is facing the position of the flying knife, and the attack speed is extremely fast!

But in less than a second!

His target for tonight's assassination turned abruptly, then poked two fingers at it.

Smack-

There was hardly any thrilling expression visible on the face.

The movements are also natural and gentle.

Ronald simply stretched out two fingers and firmly grasped the throwing knife that the assassin threw with all his might.

A faint white light clings to the skin of the finger.

The spells applied on the surface of the throwing knife also did not work at all.

……

Is this a task goal that you can handle on your own?

Doubts had just popped into the minds of the assassins, and they were immediately expelled by the only thoughts.

Run!

Run now!

Otherwise, you will die today!

Out of his own professional instinct, the assassin turned around and planned to flee immediately.

It's a pity that escaping is also delusional.

Before the first step towards survival was stepped on the ground, an irresistible pull of fear descended on him.

The body leaning forward visibly leaned forward for a moment in the air, then twisted the angle backwards in an instant.

As if the fisherman had withdrawn the bait he had thrown, he sprang into the air and galloped straight in the direction of Ronald.

Smack-

With a soft thud, the assassin sat on the floor of the street.

He looked up slightly, and immediately saw Ronald's indifferent expression as he looked down at him from above.

Then the assassin clearly saw.

The man with gray pupils in front of him spoke:

"Tell me, who told you to come?"
