Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 292 Conrad’s final counterattack

Lord Hobert?
  What happened to Hobert again...

"Just a little reminder, the news that you have been released on bail by Lord Hobert should soon reach Conrad, so you don't need to remind me what to do next, right?"

Seeing that the assistant of the Earth Sage was about to fall into her own thinking space again, Alina quietly lifted the [invisibility] magic and appeared next to Blair.

"I know." Instead of commenting on the elusiveness of the person next to him as usual, Blair had already put on a serious expression at this moment, "Do you mind taking me for a ride, Alina."

"Oh, your current appearance is really hard for me to adapt to. However," Alina slightly raised the corners of her lips, and added thoughtfully and unhurriedly before the other party made changes, "But it's very difficult." Not bad, at least you look more like a sage assistant than your previous dejected look."

After making this comment, Alina did not waste any more time. She took out a card recording the [Space Teleportation] magic from the designated area in her coat pocket. Without waiting for Blair to comment, she activated the space. Teleportation magic.

At the same time, in the Conrad Mansion in the North District of Nome City, Natalie, who had finished her dinner today, was sitting in the special reception room with great confusion...

"Um..." Realizing that the gentleman opposite didn't seem to want to speak, Natalie hesitated for a long time. Finally, when the hour hand of the clock on the wall reached the number "9", she plucked up the courage to ask the question in her heart, "Excuse me. When can Lily and I leave..."

As soon as these words took shape, Natalie suddenly realized the omissions in her previous words, so she quickly added: "Dinner is over, do you have anything else?"

"Does Miss Arinor know that it is rude for you to rashly propose that you want to leave early during a formal dinner?"

When asked by the girl, Conrad did not panic. Instead, he remained very calm, just like he had deliberately extended the dinner time before, without any psychological burden.

"I'm sorry..." Natalie lowered her head guiltily, but not long after, she raised her head again. He pleaded as sincerely as possible, "But it's already very late. I'm worried that going back too late will make the teachers and others worried..."

"It's true, I didn't think it through well," Conard smiled apologetically, then raised his hand to direct the special reception room they were in to fly back to the banquet hall, and unlocked the magic restriction, indicating that the girl could leave directly.

However, Natalie did not leave immediately after stepping out of the reception room, which surprised Conrad behind her.

"Why don't you leave?"

Even though he knew the answer, Conrad still pretended to be puzzled and surprised and asked.

"Lily..." Natalie recited her friend's name in a low voice. After looking around and confirming that she could not find her figure nearby, she turned back with a slightly improved confidence and asked, "Where is Lily?"

Conard followed and looked around the banquet hall. After gaining nothing, he finally shook his head helplessly and tried to suggest: "How about we go find her together?"

"Um…"

Natalie originally wanted to directly ask the other party whether he hid Lilicia on purpose. After thinking about it for a while, she couldn't find any suitable evidence, so she had to swallow her thoughts and nodded her head very quietly.

"Lily, where are you? If you are here, can you reply?"

So, after briefly reaching a consensus with Conrad, Natalie immediately forced herself to focus on the current search for the person. She could feel in her heart that there was probably some connection between Lilicia's sudden disappearance and Mr. Conard next to her, but just like her previous thoughts, doing so was undoubtedly not the right choice before finding suitable evidence. Maybe she will suffer even greater difficulties as a result.

So, what to do?
  Do we really have to hope that we will spend a lot of time searching for the past?

No, if you do this, you won’t be able to find Lily in a short time...

So how can we find Lilicia in a convenient and time-saving way?

Natalie fell deeply into deep thought...

Wait, the time is short and it’s easy to find someone?
  Such keywords quickly reminded her of the safety precautions for noble residences that Master Haitang told her half a month ago.

Among so many security precautions, one is to make it easier to find people and monitor the overall situation.

After having this idea, she encouraged herself secretly in her heart, then stopped, looked firmly at the person next to her, and asked for advice: "Is there anything here that can observe the inside of the entire house?" A magic prop anywhere, I think with it, our search for Lilicia will be much easier!”

"This is indeed a good idea, but there does not seem to be such a convenient magic item in this mansion, so I'm sorry, Miss Arinor, please forgive me for my lack of preparation."

After speaking, Conrad immediately matched his apology and bowed in a standard manner.

"That's it..."

Natalie was obviously a little disappointed, but seeing the other party's serious apology, she somehow felt that she shouldn't embarrass the other party, so after this small episode of disappointment, she could only Shift your attention again and think about other possible methods.

or…

Ask about the wind element?
  After trying several methods, Natalie suddenly recalled the teacher using magic to receive messages and listen attentively.

So, after experiencing several failures, Natalie, who had found hope again, hurriedly cheered up again, raised her hand to gather the surrounding wind elements, and conveyed her desire to find Lilicia to them.

However, what disappointed her was that these magical elements, who were usually well-informed and loved to listen to gossip, did not have the information she wanted to know at this moment.

Natalie's feeling of loss deepened, but she felt the wind element's feeling of guilt and self-blame. She could only try hard not to attribute the responsibility to the wind elements, but instead used the [Breath of Wind] and The overly mature [sound transmission] magic, please use the wind element to transmit it to every room in the mansion.

Hope it works this time...

After doing all this, Natalie stopped focusing on using magic, gathered her thoughts, and at the same time re-examined the surrounding environment.

However, after such an inspection, Natalie discovered that she had arrived in a strange room, but Conrad was no longer around her...
