The Lord Of The Mysteries

The Chapter 254

In Empress Borough, Count Hall's luxury villa.

Audrey, with a white napkin covering herself, watched the waiter eat cut off a piece of bacon, put two fried eggs, applied fruit jam on top of a piece of soft bread, and added the sauce to some baked mushrooms.

In a true noble family, female servants were divided into many categories. Apart from the personal servants, there are maids for different bedrooms, study room maids, activity room servants, guest room servants, dressers, shoe maids, jewelry maids, diners, laundry maids, laundry maids, and the kitchen waiter. They are strictly assigned to their own tasks, with one task handled by one waiter.

Although this was a huge waste of labor, to the nobles, politeness was everything. Unless there was a large amount of debt, they would never reduce their requirements in such matters.

Audrey took a sip of the brownish-red tea, leaving a faint scent of malt and roses in her mouth.

At this moment, he heard his father, the Member of Parliament of the House of Lords, the powerful banker, Count Hall, mutter as he held the newspaper in his hand.

"The Aurora Order is completely insane."

Aurora's order? Audrey blinked and asked curiously, "What are they doing?"

"Oh, honey, you don't want to know. They killed the Intis Ambassador, Bakerland. It's no use to them." Count Hall shook his head as he flipped through the newspaper.

Audrey's older brother, the Count's eldest son, Hibbert Hall swallowed the roasted mushroom in his mouth and expressed his opinion.

"Maybe they want to destroy the relationship between the kingdom and the Intis and let the war spread from the colony to the Northern Continent."

This noble-born child had a handsome face and bright golden hair. He looked like a classic sculpture, regardless of which angle people looked at him.

"No, if that was the case, then they wouldn't have left so much clear evidence. What's more, recently, the kingdom has too many new policies to implement and it will take time to stabilize the environment, so we will' "Start the war in a hurry. What happened last night was already reported in the newspaper this morning, and the details of the events and the killer were enough to explain the thoughts of His Majesty and the ministers." Count Hall directs his son.

Audrey listened to her father and brother discuss the matter in a daze before realizing what had happened.

Bakerland was murdered?

Mister A succeeded?

He really is from the Aurora Order?

The reason why he deliberately revealed that the Aurora Order did it was to prove that he was the one who completed the task and that he did not cheat me out of my money?

It's too fast and efficient.I just paid the first amount yesterday afternoon, and I heard the results this morning. What a result!

Audrey was stunned and delighted. It was an uncontrollable joy, but also an instinctive fear.

It must be something happy because of the mission entrusted by Mr. admirers. The fool has been solved so easily. However, the strength and actions displayed by Mr. A and the Aurora Order that supported her made Audrey unconsciously frightened.

Fortunately, I spoke to Glaint yesterday and reached a loan deal. As a viscount, he should have managed to raise money without drawing any attention to himself. I will give Master A the remaining funds in the next two days through Xio and Fors. I can't afford to show my face .. I won't be attending a Mr. A meeting for the next month or two. Fortunately I already had another circle.Audrey bit the soft bread that was carefully smeared with jam.

As breakfast was about to end, a small cake filled with cream, cherries, and strawberries was served on her plate, and she suddenly felt a little satisfied as she calmed down.

Mr. Hanged Man wanted to take part in the mission, but he might have just completed his initial task. Serve her right at sea~ Audrey is in a good mood, and she smiles as she enjoys dessert.

…

In Hillston Borough, Xio and Fors looked at the newspaper in front of them and did not make any further movements for a long time.

"… This was done by Mr. A, wasn't it?" Xio looked at his friend with a shocked and confused look.

Fors turned the stone bracelet on his wrist and shook his head in confusion.

"Maybe."

"i know about the Order of Aurora, but I don't know if Mr. A is a member of the Order of Aurora."

"It should be. After all, we only gave him 2,000 pounds yesterday. I doubt anyone else would also want to kill Ambassador Bakerland ..." Xio said hesitantly.

Fors was silent for a few seconds before he suddenly sighed and said, "Whether it's Mr. A or not, we should still give him the remaining 8000 pounds. Right now, no one can prove that he didn't. . If we want to stay in this circle, we can't deny debt!"

"Again, it's not us who pays. And we'll still get 500 pounds for the job!" With that, Xio became happy.

"The thing is, I always felt that finding Mr. A again would be dangerous ..." Fors mused and said, "I'll go alone to make the final payment. It would be better for both of us. "

"But ..." Xio was a little worried.

"If you follow me, it will affect my escape," Fors shook the bracelet on his wrist and said in a disdainful tone.

"Alright then," Xio scratched his short and coarse blonde hair as he replied helplessly.

While the two of them were fretting about this, a new message from Mr. A came to them from a private communication channel. He told them not to look for it, but to keep the rest of his money in a separate anonymous account at a different bank.

Phew. Xio and Fors heaved a sigh of relief simultaneously.

…

In the basement that was as wide as the temple, Lord A, wearing a hooded black robe, knelt in the darkness, muttering something respectfully.

In front of him was a three-meter tall statue of a man hanging upside down with his legs chained.

At this moment, a black-robed man entered and humbly reported, "Master A, I've already sent the news."

"Good," said Mr. A, without looking.

The black-robed man asked curiously, "Why don't you let us investigate who commissioned this mission?"

Master A lowered his head and said in an indifferent tone, "No need.

"you must remember that this is a critical moment.

"We will cause chaos across the continent, try our best to attract the attention of others, and use this to welcome the return of our God!

"Haha. Cough! Cough! Cough …"

Mr. A suddenly laughed before he started coughing. It was so serious that he fell to the ground.

"Yuk!"

He took out blood-colored shards that continued to wriggle after falling to the ground as if they were alive.

The black-robed man immediately lowered his head, pretending as if he had seen nothing.

After quite a while, Mr. A finally calmed down.

He crawled forward, his mouth sticking to the ground as he licked all the blood-colored shards he batted back into his mouth.

…

126 New Year's Road, Hillston Borough.

The relaxed Klein did not tail Doragu Gale this time around. Instead, he chose his girlfriend, Erica Taylor. After all, adultery requires two people to clap.

The beautiful blonde, with elaborate makeup, arrived early at the Quelaag Club via a rented train. Klein, who was carrying a suitcase filled with portable cameras and all sorts of disguises, followed suit.

"Is there another room to rest in?" Wearing the club's Frost badge on his chest, he asked the elegant maid in charge to receive the guests today.

The waiter wearing the black-and-white dress politely smiled.

"Yes, please follow the officer upstairs."

Klein nodded small. He followed the red-robed attendant up the stairs and arrived on the second floor, just in time to see Erica Taylor enter the waiting room overlooking the street.

"Do you want to see people passing by on the street or tennis courts in the back?" The officer in red asked politely.

"Let's go for a walk" Klein replied casually in a deliberate manner.

Under the red-clad attendant arrangement, she and Erica Taylor's room were separated by two rooms, and she could also see the street outside the club.

How do I take a picture later? Should I find an opportunity to sneak in and hide in the room, or climb out the window and across the pipe? None of these methods can hide that exaggerated flash, but the latter can be disguised as a fashion shot from the outside. It won't make me suspicious and I won't be expelled.. However, this will be easily noticed by Doragu and Erica.. Using a spell to make them fall asleep? No, it will not be convincing enough; it must be a photo of those who did the deed…

There's only one chance, and I have to take it pretty well. This isn't my area of expertise, because I'm not an art expert. If it was Old Neil, he would definitely try to conjure up new ritualistic magic to hide the camera flash. Of course, the Goddess might not respond to his request…

As Klein considered his next move, he saw the image of the Guard Miss appear on the silver mirror in the room.

She was still wearing her black Gothic regal dress and her matching soft hat. Her hair was a pale blonde with delicate features on her pale face.

"Do you have any way to hide the camera flash?" Klein asked casually.

Before he could finish his sentence, he looked at the ripples on the surface of the silver mirror as the somewhat transparent palm suddenly extended.

Miss Guards came out of the silver mirror like a ghost, walked in front of Klein, and said with a nod, "Yes."

He lowered his body and bowed, slowly fusing with the camera lens!

Klein's mouth slightly opened as he watched this terrifying scene, it took him quite a long time to recover from his shock. He took his portable camera and tried a test shot in his sitting room.

The effect was beyond belief. The flash is limited around the camera, and the resulting image is also pretty good.

Perhaps now it should be called the Spectral Camera. He took the camera, went to the window, and patiently waited.

Not long after, he saw Doragu Gale arrive by train.

In another room, Erica Taylor saw her lover and hurriedly left the waiting room to meet him on the first floor.

Klein took the opportunity to use a tarot card to open his room, carefully hiding in a closet where extra sheets and blankets were stored.

The darkness around him reminded him of the night before, of the sinister and terrifying Master Numberwright, Rosago.

Last night was filled with danger, but today, here I catch the adulterers in action. While Klein was making fun of himself, he heard the door open.
