After returning from Merlins, Allen gained some confidence and made up his mind to set off immediately without any further delay.
As soon as he returned to the York family's mansion, he went straight into his room and started packing his luggage.
Although Allen usually never wears the same clothes and the house is filled with all kinds of gorgeous personal belongings, when it comes to this life-and-death situation, he feels that all of them are external things.
There isn't much that really needs to be taken away.
"Origin" counts as one.
As for other things, they are all optional.
"Can you shrink it a little?" He picked up "Origin" disguised as "Mother Rabbit's Bedtime Stories" from the bedside and said to it.
The word "No" appeared on the cover of "Origin"; however, after being poked hard by Allen, it had to be transformed into a palm-sized portable comic book.
"That's pretty much it." Allen smiled faintly and stuffed it into his pocket.
Fortunately, after "Origin" had been in his hands for a while, he no longer dared to blatantly disobey his instructions like he did at first. Otherwise, with Allen's current state, he might not be able to subdue this crappy book that likes to play nonsense.
Then, he came to the desk, picked up paper and pen, and wrote a sincere letter of apology to Earl William. In the letter, he stated that he had to leave as soon as possible and could not attend the eighteen-year-old coming-of-age ceremony; as for the specific reasons, he would wait for him
I'll explain it when I get back.
After writing the letter, he stuffed the letter into an empty envelope without sealing it, then took it and left his room, heading towards Count William's study.
He planned to put the letter on Count William's desk so that Count William could see it when he woke up tomorrow morning.
However, when Allen pushed open the door of the Earl's study, an unexpected scene came into view:
At this moment, Earl William is also in the study!
This tall middle-aged man was sleeping on his desk at the moment. His head was resting on his right arm, and he snored slightly from time to time. His left hand was hanging low, holding a pen between his fingers, which he had obviously been reading just now.
Work.
The blue moonlight filtered in through the window and fell on his face, illuminating the wrinkles on his forehead particularly clearly.
Allen thought for a while, then tiptoed towards Earl William.
When Allen came to the Earl's side, he looked down and saw a piece of exquisitely patterned letter paper pressed under Earl William's arm.
The letter reads:
“Dear Marquis Christian:
"I sincerely invite you to come to No. 399 King's Road in a week's time to attend the eighteenth birthday ceremony of the dog Alan Dermet York. I hope you can bring your wife and Mr. Melgar with you.
Come.
"..."
"It turns out that the count stayed up late writing the invitation letter for the coming-of-age ceremony..." Alan thought silently.
Then he noticed that on the right hand side of Earl William, there was already a thick pile of similar letter paper. On the letter paper, almost all the great nobles of the Braden Kingdom were listed, and they were all invited to attend Allen's coming of age.
ceremonial.
Allen suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart.
He knew that Earl William hoped that he could take advantage of the coming-of-age ceremony to establish real connections in the aristocratic circle so that he could implement his plans in the Kingdom of Braden in the future.
However, the power of faith that was gradually drying up was urging him to get on the road as soon as possible.
He sighed silently and gently placed the farewell letter in his hand on Earl William's desk.
Allen wanted to move the sleeping Earl back to his bedroom, but the Earl was too heavy, and he had neither physical nor mental strength, so he could only take a pillow from the side and put it under Earl William's head.
Let him sleep more comfortably.
"Sorry." He said softly.
Then he turned and left the count's study.
When Allen came to the living room, he knocked lightly on the door of a servant's room.
"Isabella, it's time to go."
After hearing his voice, a handsome young manservant wearing a nightgown came out of the room with a yawn: "My lord, now?"
"Yes." Allen said in an unquestionable tone.
"Wait a moment." The young manservant suddenly woke up and re-entered the room with a "swish" sound. In just one minute, he finished dressing, restored his original appearance, and reappeared in Allen's house.
in front of.
At this time, she was wearing a dark green tight-fitting hunting suit, standing in front of Allen with a smile, and with her long silver hair hanging down like a waterfall, she looked like a pearl of emeralds or a green tree with white flowers.
However, when Isabella saw Allen's appearance at this time, her smile suddenly disappeared.
Allen's face was as white as frost, his eyes were like blue ice, and the color of his lips was gradually fading, as if he had lost his body temperature and turned into a person carved from ice.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
Allen held up a finger to stop her from continuing.
"Something happened to them in the new dimension." He said calmly.
Isabella opened her eyes wide and paused for a moment.
She was born in the Dark Temple and grew up in the Dark Temple. The believers in the temple are her parents, elders, brothers and sisters.
The word "something happened" was like a needle, stabbing into her heart, causing all the nerves in her body to tighten involuntarily.
"Then they...are they still alive?" After being stunned for a few seconds, she asked cautiously, fearing that she would hear the most terrible news.
"If we hurry up, we might still have a chance." Allen looked calm and composed, but did not answer her question directly.
Since losing his sense of the believers, Allen doesn't know if they are still alive.
But as an envoy, he could not show the slightest hesitation in front of Isabella.
"Then let's set off." Isabella said without hesitation.
Without waiting for Allen's instructions, she left the mansion in three steps and jumped into the driver's seat of the carriage with a vigorous posture.
Allen followed her, slowly climbed into the back seat of the carriage, and leaned comfortably on the backrest.
"Sir, are we going to the train station?" Isabella asked.
She remembered that Allen said that to go to the alien plane, you need to pass through the portal in the territory of the York family. If she remembered correctly, there is a direct railway track between the capital and Kent.
"No," Allen said, "go to Saint Sophia Cathedral. The train is too slow. We have to borrow the teleportation array of the Church of Light."
"Do you have permission?"
"Howard told me the password."
Isabella nodded.
She thought: We are a messenger of the God of Darkness and a saint of the Temple of Darkness. Recently, we have almost regarded the church of the Church of Light as our own backyard. It is really interesting.
Thinking of this, she waved her whip and urged the horses pulling the cart to move forward quickly.
A few minutes later, the outline of Hagia Sophia came into view. Under the cover of night, this white marble building showed a cold blue-gray color.
At this moment, Allen suddenly sighed inexplicably.
"It seems we have to stay here for a while." He said softly, with a hint of helplessness in his voice.
