"It's been a long time indeed, the child of the Ain Dora family." The nobleman who looked like a general responded. Could it be that this was the Paul Lophou whom Laci reminded her to pay attention to?
Then the other two... Yi Li glanced at them. One of them had a sinister look on his face, and he didn't look like a good person at first glance.
There is nothing strange about the face of the other one, but from the look of his clothes, he looks like he is a wealthy man from nowhere. All kinds of golden accessories and decorations are very eye-catching.
"So, Mr. Paulo...what important task do you want to entrust us with?" After greeting them, Lassie shook it off. After all, wasn't that what the old man said at the beginning?
Delegate tasks?
"Well, the task entrusted to you has been completed. You can go out and collect the commission from my housekeeper." Paul Lopu said directly to Lacus.
"Paul Looper, what do you mean?" Lax's face changed instantly.
"Didn't you hear? Your mission has been completed. Just talk to my butler about the bounty. Then... you can leave." Paul Lophou said again with a serious face.
Basically, Yi Li already understood what the commissioned task Paul Lophou said was about.
"Then let's say goodbye!" Laxus looked unhappy and turned around to leave. Behind her, Gegelan was also confused. However, after seeing Laxus saying goodbye, Ibiruai and Gegelan
After walking out of the study, Lachesi was about to leave directly, but Yili still stayed where she was and didn't move.
"Ahem...it's time to go." Laxus coughed dryly, thinking that Yili didn't hear it or something, and she didn't even call Yili's name. Laxus is really cute, and she didn't even say that.
Did you react? Yili couldn't help but laugh in her heart.
"If even I leave, then your mission, Lax, will not be considered completed!" Yi Li said.
And directly lifted up her hood and took off her mask. Seeing Yili's move, Lacus understood what Paul Lophou said about completing the mission. Lacus and the others' mission was
Send Yili over...that's all.
"As expected of Princess Elizabeth, you are so reasonable. Please forgive me for inviting you to be my guest in this way." Paul Lophou said.
He said he was sorry... Judging from this guy's extremely tough tone, there was no intention of apologizing at all.
"Honor Paulo, Princess Elizabeth is a guest invited by Princess Lana. Please..." Before Laxi could finish her words, she saw Yili turning around and hitting her eyes with a smile.
Si fell silent immediately, probably remembering that Yi Li had told her before that he should act based on her expression.
"Then please Lax, please go collect the bounty first, and then wait for me for a while! This... uh? Mr. Paul Lopp invited me here for something important, right?" Yili said.
"I know... Princess Elizabeth, you have to be careful." Lacus's words seemed to be warning Paulo to stop messing around, otherwise Lacus wouldn't call her princess directly. She probably wanted to remind everyone present.
Among the three nobles, this one is the princess of the Sorcerous Kingdom, and Laxis is extremely understanding in a place like this.
"Raisi from the Ain Dora family! What do you mean!" Laisi's words probably irritated the nerves of the noble with a sinister eyebrow, and the guy cursed in great displeasure.
"I'm just reminding Princess Elizabeth, who has come all the way from the Sorcerous Kingdom of Ainz Ooal Gown, that Lintonbo is responsible for her personal safety, which is also one of my tasks!" Laisi said back without showing any signs of weakness.
.
"Uncle Linton! That's it!" Paul Lopp said in a very displeased manner, and the sinister-looking nobleman could only turn his head away with an unconvinced look on his face and stopped talking.
"Don't worry! Princess Elizabeth, Ain Dora's child, is a distinguished guest, and I will naturally be responsible for her safety." After Paulo Lopu finished speaking, he stared directly at La Xisi, obviously urging La Xisi to hurry up.
Get out and don't disturb them.
"That's good... then I'll leave first." Laxus also nodded with a look of displeasure, which was regarded as a salute, and left directly. The old man waiting outside closed the door smoothly.
Just as the old man closed the door, Yili immediately turned on the sensor...and immediately discovered a strange place. Yili could sense that there was a strange air flow on the ceiling of this strange study.
Although before entering this mansion, I knew that the mansion had several floors, but if there was only one layer of ceiling and floor, how could there be strange air flow?
There should be a fairly large space on the ceiling, like a mezzanine, right? I remember seeing it in many novels. In the study rooms of nobles or wealthy people, there are some hidden compartments on the ceilings or floors to hide bodyguards.
Guards, etc., there was also a strange air flow, and there was probably a conventional secret door behind the bookshelf. Although it was very weak, it still made Yi Li aware of it.
Since there is a secret door, why don't we try it again? Yili had a sudden idea. First she raised her head and glanced at the ceiling, which is where she sensed the air flow. That should be the entrance and exit. Then she glanced at Paulo.
Take a look at Pu Hou, then smile, and see how he reacts.
"Princess Elizabeth, please take a seat..." Lord Paulo still looked very serious and invited Yili to take a seat, without wavering at all.
By doing this, Yi Li was clearly hinting to him. She had already seen that there was a place to hide someone in your room when she arrived, and wanted to test him. However, looking at the calm look on that guy's face, she saw that
Laisi said at the beginning that she should pay attention to this guy, and she was indeed right.
"So, why did Mr. Paul Lop come to see me for something?" Yili followed his instructions and took a seat, pretending to be very relaxed and asked.
"Princess Elizabeth is also a sensible person, so let me get straight to the point and ask, Princess Elizabeth, during your secret visit to the Kingdom of Riestije, are you planning to join forces with Prince Zanak and Princess Lana?" Paul Loppe
Hou asked.
This is indeed straight to the point, going straight to the point without any ambiguity. It is indeed very similar to the style of a general who has a background in leading troops in war.
"Join forces? I don't quite understand what you mean by Paul Lopuhou?" Yili pretended to be confused here, but in fact it was just to test Paul Lopuhou.
"Princess Elizabeth has already met with Prince Zanak and Princess Lana today, right?" Paul Lopp said directly.
This is very obvious, just to tell Yili that there are their spies in the royal city, and to tell Yili to stop pretending.
