Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 239 True Love?why care about gender
In a small villa, Sharon was flipping through a book of stories, which Hastur bought for her specially, and said it recorded the fairy tales from Feysac's side.

At first she refused, but after reading the first story, she felt that this book was well chosen, the stories in it were quite interesting, and it also introduced a lot of customs about Feysac.

But compared to such fairy tale books, she prefers the stories written by Hasta himself. His stories seem to contain more whimsical ideas, and the protagonists of the stories are very suitable for her appetite.

There are Pinocchio who made puppets, genius magical girls who joined the magic academy, pea people and so on.

"Sharon, Hastur sent an invitation card, inviting us to spend New Year's Eve with him, what do you think of this idea?"

At this moment, Maric strode over, holding an invitation card in his hand.

"Well, yes."

Sharon just replied indifferently, since she left the Rose School of Thought and her teacher was no longer around for the custom of celebrating the New Year, she has no expectations for this festival.

"You don't look very happy?"

"Have it?"

Maric seemed to smell the gossip, and said a little meanly: "Absolutely, do you regret rejecting Hasta and his proposal to go to South Wales?"

"Do you really want to go?"

"Well, staying in Backlund all the time always makes me feel like time has been wasted."

"Are you hungry for adventure?"

"I'm just kind of tired of the life I'm living in right now."

Maric sighed. He is now helping Sharon with some things during the day, and usually goes to the Brave Bar at night to play cards with his living corpses and take care of the stronghold at the same time.

The very ordinary life gradually became unbearable for him.

"Maric, it seems that you haven't learned real restraint yet."

"I am still inferior to you in this regard, so you can be promoted earlier than me. Now, your wraith potion has been completely digested, right?"

"Ah."

"Is it any wonder that you are becoming more and more like a puppet now, and you are already playing in advance?"

"Maric, you are wrong, this is the real me, not just playing a puppet."

"Ok."

Maric didn't discuss this issue any more, but asked Sharon what gift she was going to prepare for Hasta.

"Sharon, why don't you just go to the New Year's Eve meeting with nothing to prepare?"

"..."

Sharon didn't answer this question, she really hasn't prepared anything yet.

Only Maric is very active in this kind of thing, she has always been restrained, no matter in which aspect.

"If you do this, you will disappoint Hasta who is looking forward to receiving gifts."

"You talk a little too much."

Maric learned to shut up silently, put the invitation on the small wooden table, and turned to leave.

He didn't prepare a gift yet, he just deliberately stimulated Sharon.

……

"The new year is coming, Azshara, your new clothes are ready, you can try them on first."

"Meow!"

Azshara stretched out her front paws and closed them to her ears, indicating that she heard nothing.

"You agreed to this matter last time, and you paid a lot of small silver fish in advance."

"Meow?"

Azshara looked puzzled, as if she no longer remembered such a thing.

"You also agreed to wear a new outfit every month thereafter."

"Meow!"

Azshara raised her little paw to protest, this is an unwarranted condition!
"Look, don't you remember this clearly?"

"..."

Azshara shook her head, and Hastur handed it to the maid next to her to try on new clothes.

Hastur himself also wants to try on the dress for the banquet. The closer the New Year is, the more various banquets among the nobles.

Although he has tried his best to decline, there are always some banquets that cannot be avoided.

Just like Prince Edesak's dinner tonight, who knows how he is still alive, according to the original description, he should have died for the witch, and became a victim of the royal family's excuse to block the church.

But now that he survived, he even invited himself to attend his dinner party, with earnest words and even an attitude of begging for help in a low voice.

For a prince to do this, Hastur can only go once, although he doesn't like to participate in the affairs of the Witch Cult very much.

At about eight o'clock in the evening, Hastur arrived at the manor of Prince Edsaac in a carriage.

Tonight's Prince Edsac was dressed in formal attire, and he looked no different from the past, but his eyes were full of vicissitudes and sadness, a bit like Leonard's wandering poet.

To Hasta's surprise, Prince Edesak did not invite Mrs. Gemani tonight, and not many people came to the banquet.

It should be that many nobles knew the story between him and the witch, and also knew that he had become an outcast of the royal family and was disliked by the king, so they deliberately found reasons to refuse his invitation tonight.

As soon as Hastur arrived, Prince Edsac walked over quickly, with a complicated expression and an unexpected tone.

"I didn't expect you to come to my banquet tonight. I thought you would refuse my invitation mercilessly as before."

"Maybe it's because His Royal Highness has fewer people for dinner tonight, so I came here to make up the number."

Prince Edsac forced a smile and invited Hastur to chat in the study on the second floor.

In the study, Prince Edesak took out the royal family's best tea to entertain Hasta, and said in a lighter tone than before: "I have always wanted to see you, especially after the incident."

"It's surprising, I don't remember any interaction between me and His Royal Highness the Prince."

"It's true that there is no intersection, but I think you should be a friend worth making."

"His Royal Highness praised me, I'm not that good."

Hastur declined the request to make friends. He came here tonight mainly to see what this Prince Edsac was up to, not to make friends with him.

This will be a very troublesome thing.

"You have been rejecting my invitation before because you already knew that my situation here is very troublesome."

"I just happened to have something to deal with."

Prince Edesak did not continue this topic, but said: "I want to know about the Witch Sect, can you answer my doubts?"

"I don't know much."

Hastur thought for a while, and briefly introduced the organization of the Witch Sect to Prince Edesak. The introduction was very simple and did not involve too many secrets of the Witch Sect.

"Is it true that all the witches of the Witch Sect change from male to female?"

Hastur took a deep look at him, "Whoever appears in front of you is that person. If there is true love between you, why should you care about the other person's previous gender?"

This sentence is lore, and Leonard obviously can't accept this fact. This Prince Edsac has a little true love.

"I just can't accept it for a while..."

Prince Edesak's expression was very painful, but soon, he suppressed his heartache and said instead: "If I want to find her again, what channel do I need to go through?"

Tsk, it really is true love.

Hastur already understood the thoughts of this Prince Edsaac in his heart, and said with a smile: "If she has feelings for you as much as you love her deeply, then she should appear in front of you by herself."

"Really?" Prince Edsac was visibly excited.

"When the time is right."

Hastur didn't say anything to death, he also looked forward to whether the witch's love would have a perfect day.

"I don't want it anymore. If she comes to me, she will definitely be in danger. I can't be so selfish."

Prince Edesak looked into the distance, with a look of deep affection.

To this, Hastur can only say something that goes with the flow.

After solving the major issues on his mind, Edsack was in a good mood and took a sip of tea: "Thank you, Baron Hastur Campbell, for your clarification this time. In order to express my gratitude, I would like to transfer a building located A villa near Muir Church is presented to you, I hope you will not refuse..."

"How did you know I wanted to buy a house in the North End?"

"I am also a prince after all. I really want to investigate some things, and I can still get some useful information."

Seeing this, Hasta didn't say anything anymore, and got a villa with just a few words, and the dinner tonight was not in vain.

In this regard, Prince Edsac is still very generous.

It can be seen that he really loves that witch very deeply.

"I hope that no one else will know about the conversation tonight."

"I have forgotten the content of the chat just now."

……

It was past eleven o'clock in the evening when I came back from Prince Edsac.

Azshara was already sleeping soundly in its nest, and it must have been tossed hard while getting dressed. When it saw Hastur coming back, it just glanced lazily, without even opening its eyes.

Hastur did not disturb its rest, went to take a bath first, then returned to his room, lay on the bed and entered the Hall of Stars, and scanned the stars as usual.

The next day, Hastur specially sent someone to give Hugh a gift, which contained 1000 gold pounds.

In solving the Lockhard matter, Hugh put in a lot of effort to make things go smoothly, and her efforts were worth the money.

And the new year is approaching, this money can also allow her and Forsi to have a good year.

With a huge sum of 1000 gold pounds, it is estimated that she will be too happy to sleep.
