Chapter 4 Peeking

Gary Lawrence was a little curious about the book, but in order to leave a good impression on Sir. Bentley, he quickly looked away.

After singing songs, he looked at the sleeping Sir Bentley on the sofa in front of him and gently stood up.

Gary Lawrence looked around and picked up a cashmere blanket from the sofa and gently covered it on Sir Bentley.

He noticed that there was a black mysterious pattern on the little finger laid on Sir Bentley's chest, which was very beautiful.

He didn't expect that people in this world also liked tattoos, but it was a strange hobby to circle the tattoo on the little finger.

Gary Lawrence walked to the side door. He didn't know how the side door was opened before, so he could only open the door and then gently close it. If Sir Bentley woke up and called him, he could immediately run back.

However, Sir Bentley was asleep. He couldn't stay in the same room with Sir Bentley for the whole night. It seemed that the nobility here valued the privacy of sleeping very much.

After thinking for a while, Gary Lawrence decided to go back to his room first. At the worst, he could come back and have a look after midnight.

He passed by a balcony in the corridor.

Gary Lawrence turned his head and saw the beautiful scenery in front of him. He stopped and turned to the terrace.

It was already night, and the stars in the sky were telling the night language.

Gary Lawrence liked the night sky the most. Only when he looked at the twinkling stars could he feel that he was alive. He would feel the existence in the world, like in the previous life.

They had the same starry sky and the same moon, but they were completely different worlds.

God knew how he had spent those days when he had just traveled through the time. Now when he recalled it, Gary was a little absent-minded.

"Are you serious?"

A strange voice came from the distance, accompanied by the footsteps of two people.

Gary panicked and hid into the thick curtain of the balcony.

After he hid himself well, he began to blame himself. He sang Sir Bentley a song openly. There was nothing to hide.

But now that he had hidden himself, it would be suspicious if he came out again.

Another man said in a slightly feminine voice, "Of course it's true. Bentley has a good talent and will become an outstanding magic card master."

When he heard the three words "magic card master", Gary was absent-minded for a moment. What did he hear?

Subconsciously, he thought of the black card on the book.

"Thanks to Mr. Frank, my son Bentley can be enlightened."

"Is the enlightenment card book ready? What is the initial enlightenment card?"

"Yes, everything is ready. I chose a one-time phantom magic card. "

"Phantom? It seemed that Marquis Claude had spent a lot of money. The phantom card is very good as the enlightenment card, but it is very rare."

The two of them passed the terrace while talking.

Gary Lawrence's heart rose to his throat and he held his breath subconsciously.

The man was Marquis Claude, and the noble man here was a marquis!

Gary Lawrence felt his heart beating fast. If he became the most popular man in front of Sir Bentley, he would have a bright future.

This thought flashed through his mind and firmed his determination to serve Sir Bentley better.

But then his attention was shifted to the content of their conversation.

The book of enlightenment cards, the initial enlightenment card, the phantom card… These strange and charming words made the curiosity rise in Gary's heart uncontrollably.

They walked towards the room of Sir Bentley.

Hearing the door closing, Gary Lawrence couldn't help but come out from behind the curtain and quietly walked towards the room of Sir Bentley again.

Gary Lawrence found that the side door was also half open as he came out. Obviously, Marquis Claude and the other man didn't go through the side door before.

Gary Lawrence quietly leaned against the side door and looked inside.

A man in a black robe stood beside the door. He had sharp eyes and high nose, the tip of which slightly raised. His look showed an indescribable sense of oppression.

On the other side stood Sir Bentley and a middle-aged man, who was smiling and wearing a dark purple tuxedo. The middle-aged man did not put on airs in front of the man in black robe.

The man in black robe asked Bentley to come to his side and gently put his hand on Bentley's shoulder.

Then he said softly, "Book."

An open book suddenly appeared in front of the man in black robe.

The moment the book suddenly appeared, Gary was almost frightened to cry out.

He covered his mouth with his hand and stared at the strange scene in front of him.

The man in black robe took out a card from the book.

Gary Lawrence found clearly that the pattern on the back of the card was exactly the same as that on the card on the cover of the book owned by Sir Bentley.

"The mysterious starry sky and the sealed energy, give me the power of Scorpio…"

The man in black robe was chanting the spell, but the spell stopped at the last word. His hand suddenly moved from the shoulder of Bentley, and he directly pinched the neck of Bentley and dragged him to his front.

Obviously, Marquis Claude didn't expect this to happen.

Gary Lawrence pressed his mouth hard and even covered it with both hands to prevent himself from making any sound. Fear slowly spread in his heart.

He saw the red face of Sir Bentley because of his neck being pinched hard, and his eyes began to be bloodshot, as if they were about to be squeezed out of his eyes.

The moment the man in black robe made his move, the vigor on Marquis Claude roared. He took out a revolver from his pocket and pointed it at the man in black robe, glaring at him.

"Let go of Bentley! What the hell do you want?"

The card in the man's hand had been shining with an azure light. He looked at Marquis Claude hound with a sinister smile and said," Marquis Claude, I heard that you have found a special magic card book. May I have the honor to read one or two?"

Hearing this, Marquis Claude breathed a sigh of relief. He pointed to the sofa aside.

The man in black robe turned around and saw the magic book on the sofa. His eyes lit up in an instant.

"Well, very good. Then give your son back to you."

The man in black robe threw Bentley in his hand towards Marquis Claude.

Gary Lawrence's pupils dilated in an instant. He could see clearly that the man in black robe withdrew his hand before throwing Sir Bentley out.

Marquis Claude took the Bentley gladly, but what fell in his arms was only a dead body without breath.

The man in black robe held the card with a smile and uttered the last word of the spell, "Corrosion."

The card emitted a blue light, and a thick black smoke suddenly appeared in the air, instantly enveloping Marquis Claude, who was holding Bentley then.
