"Where will you go next?" Albert looked at the girl in front of him in a daze for a long time, as if he was stuck in memories of a long, long time ago.
"I'm just getting something back that someone gave me." Sisser was suddenly awakened. That night, she felt the loving embrace of her elders.
The old man was just like his grandfather, with the same justice and warmth, which made people feel extremely at ease. It had been a long time since he had slept so soundly.
When she woke up again, she was already sleeping in the family's main castle. The head maid, who had been so arrogant the day before, knelt submissively under her bed, and Sisser fired her without hesitation.
According to the elders, a Snowland family named Basola funded Antoinette with a total of 2 million gold crowns. This gold crown was approximately equal to the ten years of royal income of the richest country, Punocay Castle.
Antoinette thus restored the title of the Temple Family and returned to the seven major families of the Temple. Although they were still at the bottom, possessing such a huge amount of assets was enough for them to get through that difficult period.
Looking at the excited elders, Sisse nodded calmly. She knew that all this was the work of that family. How many old people in the world could use such a large amount of gold at will?
"Albert, if you can, go back to the family." Heather said softly.
"From the moment you kicked me out of the family, I was just Albert." Master Albert looked at the young girl with a smile. Her voice was hoarse and neutral, with the majesty of a superior.
.
It is hard to imagine that such a thin girl with long honey-blonde hair could be the patriarch of a large family, and the fallen who died at her hands could be compared to the top executive of the Heretic Tribunal.
She was still studying at St. Norther's College, and the students had already secretly spread rumors about the future direction of the duchess. Most of the public opinion was that she would be the executive of the Heretic Tribunal, and it seemed that she would definitely join the Heretic Tribunal.
"It's quite cold this summer..." the girl whispered. She held the pendant in her hand hard, and the irregular black stones made her palms hurt a little.
…
Noli, Noble Mechanical College of Noli.
Night has completely enveloped the city. On a night of heavy rain in Sentinoa, Norway has a cloudless clear sky. Maybe this is the last clear night before the extreme cold storm arrives, but people here are still looking for their own happiness.
.
Jessicana was sitting on the top of the bell tower on the cliff. She opened her mouth several times and didn't know what to say.
At first she thought it was the bell tower of the Mechanical College, but Xavier took her secretly over the towering wall of the college. Regardless of whether her skirt was torn or not, she thought he was going to the bell tower in the inner city, but he took her directly
Went to Noli Harbor and the towering lighthouse in front of the cliff!
Even after knowing the other party's identity, Jessicana was still a little scared.
Seeing Xavier take out a ten-gallon bill and hand it to the old man guarding the lighthouse, the old man smiled subtly and sent them to the highest point of the lighthouse, but unexpectedly, there was a big bell
.
"Do you know what the lighthouse represents?" Xavier suddenly spoke. He no longer concealed anything, and there was a hint of majesty in his voice.
"Is it light? To light the way for people at night?" Jessicana twisted her skirt, she was a little at a loss.
After all, this knowledge does not need to be learned by noble ladies. Most of what they learn in the noble mechanical academy is etiquette, dance and social interaction.
"Hope, hope given to ships that can't find their way in the night sea." Xavier paused, "When did you discover it?"
"I..." Jessicana blinked and lowered her head unnaturally, "How could it be such a coincidence? It was only in the morning that there was news that the new lord was coming, and at noon a boy of similar age came in. Still.
With the same black hair, you are neither humble nor overbearing when facing Sage. Apart from the four viscounts, you are the only one."
Xavier did not reply. He quietly looked at the clear sky at night. From the lighthouse on the high cliff by the sea, he could clearly see the stars in the entire sky.
It's like the gems God has scattered on the dark curtain. The cold sea breeze blows in my ears, and the sea smell is less fishy at high places.
The ancient city of Norway has been in the far north for hundreds of years. It has transformed from a kingdom into a city. It has a strong bearing capacity. The port has been managed with the help of Norbert and the others, and Naples should also receive a grant of gold.
Dots and pieces of ships came from the distant coastline. The port that had been destroyed by the rebels worked overtime to build some necessary equipment, and it has been officially used under the management of the city defense army.
The waves rolled in, and the turbulent water slowly dissipated near the port, and the lights flashed on the dark waves.
"Your Highness... do you like the aurora very much?" Jessicana said cautiously. She stretched her neck and passed through the copper railing of the bell tower. Her graceful figure had a beautiful arc.
"You can't see it in Denia. Some people say it's the skirt of a goddess." Xavier said very softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing the peaceful atmosphere.
"In the legend of Noli, the aurora is a torch lit by God to take away the souls of the dead! So we always have a sense of awe towards the aurora."
When talking about the aurora, Jessicana's expression came alive, with a smile on her lips, her fingers crossed and her fists clasped in front of her chest.
"Your Highness's luck is really good, it's here!" Jessicana whispered softly. She stared at the green fluorescence coming from the waves, her eyes revealing unconcealable joy.
A long blue curtain spreads out from the sky, like the dance of gods. The magnificent screen covers the entire sky, and the stars are looming behind it.
It floats lightly, flickering on and off, slowly sinking from a palpable light green, to green and finally dark blue, blending into the sky. The houses on the hillside, on the sea, or in the port
above, all covered with fluorescent green and blue.
Xavier could even touch the thin gauze-like aurora. His eyes were full of brilliant colors, and even more so for Jessicana beside him.
The aurora blended with Jessicana's white-blond hair, and her emerald eyes had a touch of blue, making them as beautiful as those goddesses in "The Covenant".
She whispered something softly, as if praying, with a satisfied smile on her face.
"Thank you, Your Highness, or shall I call you Xiwei?" Jessicana smiled for a long time and winked playfully.
"Xiwei, if you don't mind." Xavier's mood also improved. Looking at the aurora covering the world, he felt a tranquility that was difficult to feel again in his life.
"Then please let me introduce myself again," Jessicana took a deep breath, took a step back with her right foot, placed it on the left side of her left foot, then bent down to lift her skirt, and performed the meeting ceremony of a noble lady like a dragonfly touching water.
.
"Jessicaine Ti Duqueclin," she took a deep breath, as if she had made a decision, "On behalf of the Duqueclin family, I am willing to become a vassal of Dancer and give everything we have.
Everything, we also ask the Dancer family to help us."
"?" Xavier was stunned. He scratched his head and said softly, "As expected of a father and daughter..."
