Chapter 661 Before the Banquet
"To put it simply, this location on the map is the mother's, that is, the queen's courtyard. Under normal circumstances, outsiders cannot enter."
Katakuri pointed to the palace courtyard on the map, and he said: "Although it is not impossible for you to pretend to be servants to enter, there is another way here. Tomorrow, there will be a concert in this courtyard."
"Couldn't it be this." Matthew said, and a holographic image lit up, showing the poster he had seen on the street before.The poster features a very young BigMom, tall and thin, wearing a fancy dress and holding a microphone.It's a far cry from the BigMom people remember.
"Ah, that's right, that's it. This is my mother's personal interest." Katakuri replied, "She sometimes holds such events, inviting nobles and commoners in the city to attend parties in the courtyard."
No matter from which angle you look at it, it doesn't look like a normal Charlotte Lingling at all.Matthew paused for a while, and he said, "Mr. Katakuri... Has your mother always been like this on the Nagatoku poster?"
"Huh? Yeah? But..." Katakuri said, "I always feel... like a little shorter..."
Is it because of being shorter?This is obviously 30 years younger!Forget it, if Charlotte Lingling is included in the problem, there are too many things that need to be solved.So leave her alone.Matthew said: "I see. In short, we only need to pretend to be invited civilians to enter the courtyard."
"Ah, that's right. This is an invitation letter." Katakuri took out a few envelopes as he spoke, "Participants are not allowed to carry weapons...but if you want to 'cut the illusion', you need a knife. Give it to me in advance, and I will help you bring it in."
Your Royal Highness is really reliable.Matthew said with satisfaction, "The specifics of how to 'cut off' should be determined later. I'm not good at anything on the magic side, so I'll leave it to you, Miss Xiang, and the blood purification."
"Maybe you can feel something after you go there?" Youxiang thought so, and she turned her head to look at Jingxue.Jingxue also thought about it, and he said: "Mr. Captain didn't live in seclusion at that time... So I'm not sure what happened to this fire elf. But I think... the words in the book may be Some kind of metaphor?"
"metaphor?"
"Hmm... That is to say, the so-called seclusion is not living in an unknown space as we imagined, but living in disguise as someone else and hiding our names... Is that so?"Jingxue said, "Ah! I don't really understand human language... Well, this is just my understanding..."
"It's not impossible." We thought everything was 'too magical'.Instead, a more reasonable explanation was discarded.Matthew suddenly came alive, "The meaning of cutting off the illusion is probably to expose his disguise...Maybe the elves can sense each other?"
"Thinking like this is indeed more reasonable." Katakuri also thinks it makes sense, "After all, I can't think of the possibility that there are other spaces hidden in that courtyard. There are many servants, merchants and nobles in the palace. If someone It's very easy to live a low-key life."
Then it can be reasonably speculated that the fire elf is a person who often appears in the courtyard of the palace.It could be servants, soldiers or merchants, nobles...it's easier that way.Matthew seemed to have a complete plan in mind, and he said, "Okay! Then let's wait for the concert to start tomorrow! Now it's time for Miss Youxiang to go to bed!"
"People can still-"
"You can't." The body temperature was a little abnormal.Although the body has improved, it is not so good!Matthew interrupted Youxiang, then walked to the bed, pulled the quilt away, "Okay, lie down now. I will be responsible for inviting everyone else out... Even if I look at me like this, I will not say that you can stay of."
Halfway through, Matthew saw Ace and Sabo hugging the little cauliflower in the middle from left to right, indicating that they would not leave.However, Matthew's mother will not give in: "You two are not brothers, what do you want to do in the single woman's room?"
"We, we are not big brothers, but the relationship with Youxiang is definitely not that simple!" Sabo said that he was very reasonable, "Youxiang, please say something!"
"It's so hot." Why are these two people like a stove... Oh, they are a stove.Youxiang pushed Sabo's face away, she said, "I don't think it matters, and the room is so big, it feels a bit wasteful to be alone."
"That's right, Matthew~ You see, we have a good relationship?" Ace laughed when he saw Sabo who was pushed away, "Does this happen many times?"
"If you know, reflect on me! Miss Youxiang, come here!" Matthew walked over and took Youxiang's hand and pulled her to his side, "Please don't spoil them! Mr. Katakuri, please give them another Arrange another room."
"That's all right...but you're really not a mother?"
"No!" Hurry up, I can't pretend anymore!Matthew quickly coaxed everyone out. After closing the door, he heaved a sigh of relief, and told Youxiang to lie down quickly: "The body temperature is 37 degrees 5. You have already started to have a fever, Miss Youxiang."
"Huh?!" Youxiang herself didn't feel anything, she said, "Could it be that Matthew just now was because of..."
"If you just said it, I'm afraid you won't be able to take a good rest." Matthew shook his head, and he said, "Although I dare not comment on other aspects, they really care about you. If you have a fever, Ace Mister might squat by your door all night." He's done it before, "but tomorrow is important, isn't it?"
"Matthew..."
"Getting Mr. Frey back is very important to all of us." Matthew emphasized again, and he said, "Don't think this is your business alone? To restore the world to normal, Frey Mr. Lei must be indispensable, Miss Youxiang." He put his hand on Youxiang's forehead, and Youxiang felt that his hand was cool and comfortable.
"Did I seldom leave Matthew's side before?" Youxiang had this feeling, as if she had been taken care of by Matthew all the time.
"Ah, that's right. Since the first day we met... After all, I am an artificial intelligence, and serving mankind is the meaning of my birth." Matthew said, "On that day, I have promised to help you realize your wish, so until that day I will not leave you until my wish is fulfilled. To be honest, I also have nearly eternity."
"Eternity...?" This word sounds a little scary.Youxiang hugged the quilt tightly, and she said, "I'm a little scared... Matthew..."
"It's okay, Ms. Youxiang. You were... actually not so serious before. There are many, many malicious things against you in this world, but you still get a lot of good kindness. I think each of us has experienced enough So that we can overcome all the upcoming events." Matthew smiled and said, "It can't be more difficult than the battle on the top."
"what is that?"
"It's the battle to save Mr. Ace...it's a battle that can't be won without relying on magic and saving lives of equal value." Matthew explained, "Although we are victorious, but...in fact, we may not be able to win in the end." People really win. But don't worry, Mr. Ace probably won't do it again."
"He turned out to be such a worry-free person~"
"Hahaha... none of the three brothers are easy-going." If I were a person, I would have died of high blood pressure.Matthew said, "This room is quite luxurious...does Miss Xiang want to take a bath?"
"Hmm~~ That's right... I'm going to the palace tomorrow, shouldn't I dress up?" Youxiang sat up, and she said, "Speaking of which, I'm still the princess of the empire... Is this a spy?"
"Whether it counts or not, Mr. Katakuri won't mind." In this place, besides BigMom, he must be the biggest.As Matthew stood up, he walked to the front of the closet and opened it. There were a large number of luxurious clothes in it, and all of them fit Youxiang's size visually. "I've already expected this. I'll go to the bathroom to check the temperature."
"Mr. Katakuri really..." The dress is so beautiful... Youxiang sighed, she never thought that things would turn out like this.What did my previous self do?If it wasn't a thrilling adventure, would there be such a connection with people?
"Master..." Lance appeared next to Youxiang at this moment, and he said cautiously, "If, if you want other clothes, I can help you." Good at!
"It's okay, I don't think I can be too willful!" After all, I am already very willful.Youxiang said, "Lance doesn't have to worry about me that much either?"
"How can I not worry about Master... Devils can't lie, so I can't agree to Master." Lance said a little sadly, "But if there is anger, Master's situation will really be better. A lot. He is a very powerful demon... The master should no longer get sick for no reason."
"Actually, I think it's much better now than before."
"Well, it will be better?" Lance said with a smile, but he was a little worried immediately, "However, I'm still... still a little worried, the master must wake up the anger. I know everything, so It's okay without violence... but anger he is..."
It should be quite powerful, right? That demon called Anger... seems to be called Frey?Frey... Frey... sounds like a reassuring name.I must get him back.You Xiang said, "Lance...did you know when you were waiting for me?"
"Huh?" What does this mean?
"Lance, do you feel lonely?"
You actually asked me this kind of question...Master, you!I am a devil!I... have been lonely since birth.Otherwise, I wouldn't want to run outside the barrier!Lance didn't know what to say for a moment, and finally he could only speak: "Anger is waiting for you. Master. So... please make sure, make sure, let him wake up!"
--------------------
The author has something to say:
As Lance said before, he has been waiting, in the space that has lost the concept of time, has been waiting for the person who can bring him back to his senses.The reason why they choose to lose their minds in this world is because they believe that person will definitely come to them.
So Frey is waiting too!
