Lucien forced a smile: "Perhaps because this is the Lata Summer Palace, or perhaps because I am facing you, the princess, so I feel nervous and uneasy. Please forgive me for my restraint."
But Lucien felt a little relieved in his heart: "I finally asked!"
The impatience, uneasiness and nervousness that Natasha felt were all faked by Lucien himself, just to let Natasha ask this question to test some things.
Natasha raised her thick but beautiful eyebrows: "Are you nervous because of my status as a princess and a countess? Lucien, a man must have the courage of a man. You can respect others, worship others, and fear others, but absolutely
Don't shrink back, this is the spirit and pride that belongs to every man and every knight."
"Your Highness, I will work hard to change. I think my nervousness and uneasiness when facing you come more from my background as a poor person and my narrow knowledge." Lucien was slightly aroused by Natasha's attitude and language.
I was shocked for a moment, but I quickly came up with a prepared excuse.
Natasha suddenly laughed, not coquettishly, but with a beautiful atmosphere: "Actually, you are much better than most people. At least the first time you faced me, you were able to express yourself fluently and completely. Maybe
Lucien, you have not realized this potential of yours. Hehe, the first time you saw Sylvia, you were able to look at her legs without taking your eyes off her. I really admire your boldness, Lucien."
Maybe it was because Lucien didn't harass Sylvia or even talk to her after that. When Natasha mentioned the previous incident, she didn't show anger, but was rather teasing.
"That was the first time I saw stockings, and I was a little bit embarrassed. Actually, I'm not a pervert." Lucien explained with a slight embarrassment.
The left corner of Natasha's mouth curled up, with a look that I understood very well: "This by-product of the alchemy of the ancient magic empire gives people a hazy and dreamy feeling. It is an item that both ladies and gentlemen 'like'. Hehe, it seems that
You are no exception. However, since the Magic Empire has been destroyed, this material can only be produced in some places, and even ordinary nobles cannot obtain it."
"Your Highness, it would be great if you could understand." Lucien nodded in agreement.
Natasha looked at Lucien with a smile: "But no one has looked at it for as long as you did. Lucien, are you really not a pervert?" Lucien's embarrassed explanation made her feel a little confused.
Bad taste.
"In fact, I have never even held a girl's hand." Lucien could only respond with the tragic facts of his life.
Natasha let out a long sigh: "It's really unfortunate. I have seen your information and you are already seventeen years old. Haha, Lucien, in fact, after the concert, many girls were interested in you and needed me to help you.
Would you like to introduce someone? Although they will all marry nobles in the end, it would be nice to have a pre-marriage romance that can be recalled." It was that joking tone again.
"Your Highness, thank you for your kindness. I don't need it for the time being. In the past few years, I want to devote myself to music." Lucien refused solemnly.
His appearance aroused Natasha's playful interest even more, and she seemed to suddenly distort it: "You don't need my introduction, do you want to pursue Lucien on your own?" Then she raised her eyebrows and said, "You need my guidance.
Do you have any methods to pursue girls? Sylvia’s little wild cat was taken over by me..."
Cough, cough, cough, Camille's cough sounded in time, interrupting Natasha's words.
"Your Highness, why are we discussing such a strange topic?" Lucien felt that Natasha was very approachable and had no airs, and it was very easy to communicate. However, the topic would always slip in an inexplicable direction, giving him a strange feeling.
.
Natasha glanced at Camille, confused, and said seriously: "Isn't this a normal topic between gentlemen?"
"But you are a lady, Your Highness the Princess." Lucien finally understood what the problem was. It was obviously a conversation between two men.
Natasha spread her hands: "You can regard me as a gentleman. In fact, I can teach you how to pursue girls better than most gentlemen. Okay, let's continue discussing music." She saw Lucien's face.
His face turned a little dark, so he had to end the topic for the time being.
But what was rare was that Lucien, unlike other nobles, showed no resistance or nervousness in this matter, which made her very satisfied. Finally, there was a man who could communicate with her normally about "gentlemanly" topics.
Lucien breathed a sigh of relief: "We just discussed some techniques at the end of the music..."
"Lucien, I have a question." Natasha interrupted Lucien, looking like a good student.
Lucien was very dedicated and asked seriously: "What aspect of the ending technique is it about?"
"You really don't need me to teach you how to pursue girls?" Natasha laughed.
"..." Lucien had to pretend not to hear.
An hour passed quickly, and Natasha suddenly had inspiration and recorded the melody on the white paper on the music stand, while Camille stood up and sent Lucien out.
"Don't tell others what you just said." After Camille saw Lucien to the door, he looked ahead and said softly.
Lucien nodded solemnly.
…………
After lunch, Lucien arrived at Victor's house in a slightly excited mood and patiently waited for Phyllis' arrival.
At the same time, he ordered the butler Ace: "Mr. Ace, there are a lot of mosquitoes in the Harvest Moon, which is especially scary during this period. Please sprinkle some sulfur in the hall to drive them away."
"Okay, Mr. Evans." Butler Ace always values etiquette the most.
Phyllis seemed to understand Lucien's mood, and went out half an hour earlier than usual. Apart from Lucien, she was the first to arrive.
Pulling Lucien to the corner of the hall, avoiding the servants, Phyllis took out a black bag that looked like a deep night, with several beating flame marks embroidered on it: "This is forty grams of moonlight roses, they must
Bags with this kind of quality can be stored for a long time. This is a bag that belongs to me, but I can't use it for the time being. You can take it first and return it to me after Moonlight Rose has finished using it."
"Thank you, Phyllis." Lucien suppressed his excitement, took this special bag, and opened it.
It is full of shimmering silver-white powder, which has a dreamlike beauty against the black bag.
After padding the weight, Lucien estimated that there was not much deviation, tied the bag and hid it in the lining pocket of his clothes. Now the required materials are ready: "Phyllis, Jintale, I will return it as soon as possible."
you."
Phyllis replied with the most standard polite smile: "Of course, this is my personal savings." Then she sniffed, "Why is there such a strong smell of sulfur?"
"There were a lot of mosquitoes just now. I asked Mr. Ace to sprinkle them, but they will be blown away by the wind soon." Lucien replied without seeming to care.
…………
During this afternoon's study, Lucien kept telling himself to be calm and kept things very well on the surface. However, more mistakes and omissions than before still showed that Lucien was actually not calm in his heart. Victor's attitude towards Lu
There is no criticism of Sean's state of mind, considering that it takes time to recover after the concert to relax.
After finally staying up until six o'clock in the afternoon, Lucien restrained his impatient mood and returned to the hut in Aderang District with steady steps. While cooking potatoes and beef stew, he continued to pack and pack the items he was going to move to Jisu District.
A small box full.
After dinner, Lucien opened the envelope, unfolded the letter paper, and looked at the latest lines of text that appeared on it:
"Mr. Evans, we are very satisfied with your performance at Lata Summer Palace today, very satisfied. However, please restrain your nervousness, uneasiness and anxiety appropriately. Although I can understand your mood and state, the princess will not.
Well, I think with your talent and hard work, you should be able to stay calm."
They didn't ask Lucien about today's conversation, or what Lucien had seen at Lata Summer Palace. The cultists seemed to want to show that they had everything under control to intimidate Lucien.
Lucien folded the letter paper with a slightly frightened expression, put it into the envelope, and put it into a small box. Then he picked up the small box and went straight out, arriving at the garden villa at No. 116, Jisu District, as if moving normally.
Putting the small box in the master bedroom, Lucien took out a music book and looked at it quietly. He seemed ready to sleep here tonight.
As the night gradually grew darker, Lucien went to bed, then stood up with a frown on his face: "It's too humid, how can I sleep? Let Brian find someone to dry the quilt tomorrow."
So Lucien quickly walked out of the master bedroom, went straight downstairs and left the villa, returning to the Aderjan area. The small box and the items moved yesterday were left here.
…………
After darkness completely fell, Lucien entered his hut, locked the door, closed the wooden windows, then blew out the candles, took off his coat, and lay down on the bed.
Ten minutes later, Lucien suddenly stood up again and cursed: "So many mosquitoes!"
So Lucien dug out sulfur from the crate and sprinkled it in every corner of the room, causing the buzzing mosquitoes and insects to either fall to the ground or leave.
Looking at all this, Lucien went back to bed with satisfaction.
Late at night, Lucien vaguely felt the fluctuation of supernatural power, which was like a pair of eyes watching him in the air of the cabin.
"Without the little creatures like Alto tiger mosquitoes, can we finally use divine magic to monitor directly? Let's see how long you can maintain it."
Lucien closed his eyes and waited quietly. An hour later, the monitoring 'eyes' disappeared, but they soon reappeared.
"The duration is one hour." Lucien judged.
Another hour passed, and the surveillance eyes disappeared as expected. Perhaps because they thought Lucien was sleeping normally, or perhaps because the personnel were rotated, they reappeared ten minutes later, but Lucien still did not move.
More than thirty minutes later, the monitoring 'eyes' disappeared suddenly and without warning.
Lucien suddenly got out of the bed and disguised the bed as if someone was sleeping.
This is the Aderjan District. This is the Aderjan District that has been closely monitored by the church due to recent events. What Lucien has been waiting for from the beginning is the patrol of the night watchman nearby.
Facing the church, the cultists can only retreat temporarily and cannot use divine magic to monitor them!
Lucien took this opportunity and quietly entered the magic laboratory. The movement caused by the switch was very small and could not be felt outside the room, unless he was a powerful person at the level of a cardinal.
This matter involves certain risks from beginning to end, but under the current circumstances, it is absolutely impossible to succeed without taking risks.
