"In addition, if Miss Akasha's kick really caused irreparable damage, then Earl Clear's revenge may not be limited to Miss Akasha, but will also involve you.^w\an\o¨p+e~n¨.?co!m!"

"The Count of Trier?"

This name made Edward's heart move, and he quickly remembered where he had heard it before:

Sunset Senior Group (Dusk Hermit Group).

At the end of the party, Hermes proposed three things to do next. The last one specifically mentioned the conservative Earl Clear of Intis, saying that he might even take action against Roselle for his own benefit.

And Roselle was the key figure appointed by Father Maozi to promote the trend of the times. Of course, he would not allow anyone to threaten him. Although Edward always remembered this matter, he had no intention of interfering.

After all, I just joined, so I should wait and see how the old members do things and learn from them to avoid leaving any loopholes.

However, unexpectedly, he didn't want to care about Earl Clear, but his...grandson came to him.

Chapter 495 Assassination of Earl Clear

Edward frowned and asked:

"How do you think this matter will implicate me? After all, Akasha is just the housekeeper I hired. No matter what she did outside, it has nothing to do with me, right?"

Dubois shook his head. "When power reaches a certain level, many laws and rules can be ignored. To vent his anger, Earl Cleary can make up any excuses and charges."

"for example?"

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and soon the door was pushed open. A man in a Trier police uniform held a piece of paper and said loudly, "Klein Sparrow, I am the chief of the Trier Opera District Police Station. I am arresting you for the suspected murder of the previous owner of Villa No. 7, Rose Street, which resulted in the deaths of 18 people!"

"Dubois, take him down as an accomplice as well!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and the police officers behind him rushed in like wolves and tigers.

Edward and Dubois looked at each other: Now they knew what the other party had concocted. I have to say, it was really... brilliant.

...

"Bang!"

Edward and Dubois were pushed into the cell by the jailer - without any interrogation or judgment.

He looked at the dark, damp and smelly cell and felt that retribution had come too quickly: he had arrested Roselle last night in the name of the space-time police, but today he was arrested himself.

At present, it seems that the only way to leave through formal channels is to rely on Russell.

Edward cleaned the cell with a wave of his hand and transformed two sofas, but the [false reality] made it still dirty and damp in the eyes of outsiders.

Although he knew Mr. "Sparrow" had this ability, Dubois was still surprised to see it with his own eyes.

Edward sat on the sofa and asked, "What is the next process? Waiting for trial, or being convicted directly?"

"I guess... it will probably make us commit suicide out of fear of guilt."

Seeing that Edward was not in a hurry, Dubois calmly analyzed, "You are a nouveau riche who just came to Trier. As for me, I have offended many people before. There is no need to go through the formal legal channels to deal with us. Committing suicide out of fear of crime is the simplest."

"Is Akasha imprisoned here too?"

"That should be it."

Edward flipped a gold coin and the number came up, indicating a no.

"She's not here."

Dubois immediately looked anxious. "Then she might have been specially treated by the Earl of Clear. If so, she might be in danger now."

He blamed himself, "At that time... I was so stupid! Why did I persuade her to surrender?"

"Whether she surrenders or not, it won't change the outcome. Do you think the Beyonder official organization in Trier is just there to do nothing?"

"So now she is..."

"I'll go and take a look."

"ah?"

Edward left behind the false reality to maintain the illusion of the cell, but actually he had already stepped out, and quickly determined Akasha's position with the help of the divination stick, and found her in his spirit state without any obstacles. ·Noon^4!Read·Book^ *Has been published+Crime~New_Zhang?Robbery!

Soon, he arrived at the dungeon of a villa a few kilometers away. This should be a private prison set up by a noble family, but the defense was not as bad as the official one.

But after all, it is just a prison for ordinary people. Facing a Sequence 4 like Edward who has various means, it is obviously meaningless.

Akasha was lying on the bed in a cell with a bored look on her face, staring at the ceiling with her bright red eyes. She didn't look like she was being tortured.

As expected, she changed yesterday's trousers into black socks. Don't say that at first glance, there is a bit of uniform temptation. Coupled with her hot body, it is understandable that a man would be so lustful that he loses his mind.

As soon as Edward walked in, she jumped up, her red eyes flashed, and she asked in surprise: "Mr. Sparrow, how did you die?"

"…"

Edward flicked her forehead with his invisible hand, "Who told you that a spirit is dead? Don't you know that there are ways to become a spirit or even a ghost?"

She looked puzzled, "But you are obviously not one of those channels."

"The Sealed Artifact won't work?" Edward folded his arms and said, "Hey, I think you're not worried at all. You still have the mind to ask these nonsense questions."

Akasha said as a matter of course: "Why should I worry? Anyway, I know you will come to save me. Otherwise, when Lalder comes back and finds that you did not save his beloved sister, will he still help you 'investigate' the things you want to know?"

Edward walked over to sit next to her, "Then did you know that Dubois and I were also arrested and put in jail because of you?"

"???"

She was really surprised: "Why?"

"Because of the person you hurt..."

Edward told her about the identity of the Earl of Clear. She nodded and clenched her fists. "So that's how it is. This time we have no choice but to escape from prison. Let's go."

She jumped off the bed and was about to kick the door, but Edward quickly pulled her back and said, "What prison break? If you break out of this prison, all my previous efforts will be in vain."

"Hey, I know you're a demigod, how could you pretend to be a rich man who wants to integrate into the aristocratic circle?" Akasha bumped his shoulder with interest, "Are you planning to do something big? Is it a ceremony to advance to a higher order that requires creating a disaster or something?"

"Don't ask questions that you don't have to ask."

"Tsk, it's definitely not good anyway."

"Let me ask you, did that kick of yours...disable the grandson of Count Chris?"

She scratched her cheek and said, "How should I know? I was just angry and kicked him. Who knows how hard I kicked him? But he screamed miserably at that time."

"…"

Edward asked again, "Has anyone come to see you since you were locked up here?"

He thought that Earl Clear had brought her back and locked her up specifically to torture her to vent his anger, but he didn't know whether he hadn't taken care of her yet or for some other reason.

"Yes, but it seems that he is not Earl Clear's man."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because that person told me that he would help me create an opportunity to kill the earl and then help me escape."

Edward sighed. This development... Why did it feel like someone was deliberately planning to use Akasha to kill Earl Clear?

What will the Twilight Hermit do?

"Do you agree?"

"Of course not. Anyone who believes such words is an idiot. I might as well just stay here and wait for you to save me."

Edward thought for a moment, "I see."

At this moment, his spirit moved, and he sensed what was happening on the other side, so he said, "You continue to stay here."

"Hey? Aren't you afraid that I will be retaliated by that earl? What comes first and what comes later?"

His silhouette disappeared, "When the time comes, I will avenge you with my own hands!"

"Hey, hey!"

Akasha took two steps after him and said angrily, "I would rather be alive than be avenged after my death! Ahhhh, I hate you High Sequences the most. None of you are happy to do things! I'm so annoyed!"

She lay back down, shaking her long white legs, looking bored and anxious.

After an unknown amount of time, footsteps were heard, and soon a voice came from outside the cell—it was the person who had been looking for her before:

"Kill Earl Clear, and we will help you advance to a Sequence 4 Demigod."

"…"

Akasha was stunned.

It had to be said that no matter how casual and careless she was, the temptation of being promoted from Sequence 6 to a demigod was still very great for her.

But she quickly calmed down and said, "Tsk, our vampire race's promotion is different from your ordinary Beyonders."

The voice outside the door said calmly: "Over the years, countless vampires have died outside. We have in our hands those extraordinary characteristics that have not been taken back."

"…"

Akasha narrowed her eyes and bared her sharp teeth. "Don't you know that your words are a provocation to the vampires?"

"I am just stating the facts. Whether you are willing to admit it or not, the facts are the facts."

After a moment of silence, Akasha asked, "Why did you choose me? I'm just a Sequence 6."

"We didn't choose you…

It's the trend of the times!"

...

Not long after Edward returned to the cell, he saw the cell door opened. Russell said to the jailer in an arrogant manner: "I am a straightforward person. I don't criticize people, and what I am about to say is not intended to offend you."

People who often talk nonsense will know what he really means after hearing the above three sentences. "That grandson of Clear deserves it. He asked for it. What does it have to do with my friend?"

"Hurry up and ask Mr. Sparrow to come out!"

"Yes, yes."

The two jailers bowed and nodded to Edward and said, "Sir, you...you can go out now."

Before they could finish their words, they were pushed away by Roselle. "I'm so sorry, Klein, for causing you to suffer."

He didn't even look at DuBois as he spoke.

"Ah? No, no, we should be the ones thanking you."

"No!"

Russell's face was filled with a hint of anger. "Clear's move was obviously aimed at me! Damn it, he didn't have the guts to touch me, so he attacked my friend, this old man!"

ah?

Did Roselle think that Earl Clear was causing trouble for me because of him?

This... is really a beautiful misunderstanding.

Edward thought about it, and then whispered truthfully: "This is what happened..."

He told the story of his housekeeper and Clear's grandson. Russell was shocked at first, then he burst into laughter: "Hahahaha! Good, good! Well done. Where is your housekeeper? I must thank her!"

"Wells always loved to snatch women from me. I didn't expect that he would hit a wall this time. Hahahaha! Let's see how he will snatch women from me in the future."

Russell then laughed secretly and said, "No, no, no, I should send him more women, hahahaha!"

"…"

After laughing, he straightened his face and pinched his chin and said, "I was wondering why that old man Clear suddenly went crazy and locked you up on such a ridiculous charge. He wants to exterminate your descendants."

"In this case, your housekeeper will be in trouble."

Edward immediately said, "I can pay the best lawyer in Trier to defend her."

"No matter how good a lawyer is, it won't help in this kind of situation."

He thought for a moment and said, "Let's leave here first."

Russell patted Edward on the shoulder, and the two walked out of the cell one after another, and Dubois hurriedly followed.

Seeing this, Russell was immediately surprised and asked, "Who asked you to come out? I'm here to bail out my good friend Klein. Who are you? Why are you following me out?"

DuBois: "…"

"Oh, now I remember. Isn't this Dubois, the man who is loved by all the people of Trier and fascinated by thousands of noble ladies and young ladies? Your sex buddies... no, why didn't your true love find someone to save you?"

Chapter 496: Brainless and Characterless

DuBois: "…"

"Oh, I would like to help you out, but you definitely don't want to owe me a favor, right?"

"…"

Dubois's continuous silence made Russell's monologue a little boring, and then he snorted and ignored him. \j*i?a,n`g\l?i¨y`i*b¨a\.·c`o¨m￠

"Hey, I thought you wouldn't appreciate it, and even argue with him like you did at the Roselle family party a few days ago."

Edward chuckled at DuBois.

He said: "...I am not so ungrateful, Mr. Sparrow. Whether I like it or not, I owe Russell a favor this time."

The group quickly walked out of the prison and came to a carriage parked on the side of the road. Roselle said, "I'll try to find someone to help Clear, but... you have to be mentally prepared. Someone will have to bear Clear's endless anger."

He helped Edward because Roselle initially thought that Edward was implicated by him, and he also wanted to repay the favor of saving Bernadette.

But he couldn't really go to great lengths to save a housekeeper - even though he admired what the housekeeper had done, a servant was just a servant after all.

In this era - no, even in the future, the lives of ordinary people are still the least valuable.

"I see. Thank you, Russell."

"polite!"

Roselle jumped onto the carriage and said, "I'm going back now. I look forward to attending your housewarming party."

As the carriage gurgled away, Dubois asked, "Mr. Sparrow, did you see Miss Akasha just now?"

"I see. You don't have to worry too much about her for now."

"Why?"

"There are some things you don't need to know."

DuBois opened his mouth, thoughtfully.

The two of them then rented a carriage and returned to No. 7 Rose Street. After asking Dubois to keep an eye out for news about Akasha and Count Clear, Edward returned to his bedroom and walked four steps backwards to enter Sephira Castle.

He sat on the bronze chair and thought for a while, then materialized a fountain pen and parchment and wrote down the divination statement: "The truth about what Akasha encountered this morning. /E_Z\晓`税!网/ ~首!發-"

He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep. After a moment of haziness, Akasha appeared. She was wearing an OL suit and selecting a maid at the "Talent Employment Market". At this time, a handsome blond young man in his twenties passed by and noticed her. He stopped and looked at her a few more times.

A merchant passed by with more than a dozen slaves, and just then a carriage passed by, causing a brief chaos. A slave bumped the blond young man from behind. He frowned and looked over, and the slave merchant hurriedly apologized.

At this moment, the young man suddenly pushed the merchant away and walked quickly towards Akasha... and then what Dubois had said before happened.

The picture shattered and disappeared, and the dream was filled with darkness.

More than ten seconds later, an unclear figure appeared in the darkness and said in a serious tone: "Everything is for the trend of the times."

Pop.

The dream ended here and Edward opened his eyes.

Sure enough, it was the Dusk Hermit who was causing trouble.

Edward leaned back in his chair, pinching his fingers, somewhat puzzled: But why would the Twilight Hermits choose Akasha, a Sequence 6, to assassinate a powerful and prestigious earl?

In the future, in order to assassinate Duke Negan, although the first person they looked for was only a Sequence 6, he possessed the power of creeping hunger and could definitely exert strength no less than that of a Sequence 5.

In the original book, if Audrey hadn't discovered it, the first assassination would probably have been successful.

Unless Earl Clear was defenseless and had no Beyonders to protect him, how could Akasha assassinate him with her abilities?

Tsk, in this case, if I intervene directly, will it cause Adam's dissatisfaction?

Although he was worried, as long as he was sure that the formal channels with Roselle were not working, he would definitely go and bring Akasha out and send her back to Feynaporte.

Having made up his mind, he took out Groselle's Travels and the Book of Natural Disasters as usual and absorbed various related abilities again, and then spread his spirituality towards a deep red star deep in the gray fog.

...

In one day and one night, Pales Zoroast traveled all over Trier.

Even though He knew that He had better find someone to parasitize as soon as possible, He did not make a choice so quickly. Whenever He felt weak, He would steal a little vitality from some strong people.

For Pales, parasitism is not simply a way to fight against weakness, but also a win-win situation. He needs to cooperate with the parasite to a certain extent in order to get rid of weakness as soon as possible.

Last time, I hastily parasitized a descendant of Abraham, which seemed to be a good choice, but in the end I was almost killed by the other party. This time I must keep my eyes open!

At this moment, an endless gray mist suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. The next second, he saw the surrounding environment change and he came to the mysterious "little garden" again yesterday.

The mysterious being that was suspected to be the source of spirit had indeed used some method to completely control his own life.

"Sir, do you have anything to do with me?"

Pales asked with a slight bow.

"Pick a chair and sit down."

Edward gestured with his hand.

"I remember you said yesterday that the reason you broke into Amon's tomb was because the descendant of Abraham you were parasitizing insisted on having his own way and didn't listen to your advice?"

"That's right!"

Edward got straight to the point: "I want to find the hiding place of Abraham's descendants, do you know that?"

"I know a little."

"where?"

Pales knew everything. "According to the descendant of Abraham that I was parasitizing, their branch seemed to be hiding near the Luen Jianhai County, but he did not reveal the specific location."

Jianhai County?

"Besides this, is there any other more accurate information about the Abraham family?"

Pales hesitated for a few seconds and tried to ask, "Sir, why are you looking for the descendants of Abraham..."

Edward said calmly: "I need a seal from the Abraham family..."

"I see."

Pales said, "Please forgive me, I don't know more about Abraham's descendants at the moment, but... yesterday I met a man who is suspected to be a descendant of Abraham's family in Trier."

"oh?"

"Although I only noticed it from a distance, I shouldn't have mistaken that familiar aura." Pales said with some embarrassment, "But because of the previous experience, I immediately stayed away from the descendant of Abraham, so I don't know where he is now."

After Mr. Men disappeared, the descendants of Abraham's family quickly declined under the double blow of other forces and the Full Moon's Whispering, so they chose to break up into small pieces and dispersed across the continent. It was normal for one or two of them to appear in Trier.

Edward thought for a moment and said, "If you find any trace of the descendant of Abraham again, recite my name and tell me as soon as possible."

"I see."

"Oh yeah, do you know how to contact Bethel?"

When Pales first heard the name "Bethel", he was still a little confused. "Mr. Men? Sorry, I don't know. At the beginning, He and I were in the enemy camp and supported different empires."

"All right."

So what's next?

Edward looked away from Pales and once again into the depths of the gray fog, spreading his spirituality toward the crimson star that represented Renette Tinicole, and said calmly:

"Find a safe place with no one around. Count to 100 and I'll find you."

...

Southern Continent, Highland Kingdom.

As Renette listened to the elders of the Temperance Faction reporting on the recent movements of the Indulgence Faction, her brows furrowed more and more. In fact, she had already anticipated this when the Mother Tree of Desire suddenly attacked her last week, but it was still a little hard to accept when it really happened.

But she had no way to deal with it.

Sequence 2 angels are powerful beings that are out of reach for most people in this world, but they are extremely powerless against an evil god.

"I know everything."

Reinette said calmly, "Next, we still have to continue to avoid the edge of the hedonistic faction."

"Leader, if this continues, our Temperance Faction will be completely expelled from the Rose School."
