Don't call me evil god

Chapter 591 "Index Finger" Evelyn
"Respected Archmage! What should we do next?"

Pete could hear the excitement in his own voice.

The king personally invited someone to meet alone. Not only Pete and his father, Baron Chinar, but even in the entire Ceylon, the number of people who could receive such an honor could be counted on one hand.

Either he is a noble of the rank of Countess of Ceylon, and is granted a fief by Majesty Kenreddin;
Either you have to make an extremely significant contribution or accomplish something amazing.

People like Viscount Tostin had no chance to meet alone, and they could only see His Majesty the King up close at the collective enthronement ceremony.

Pete could only guess based on his imagination.

Perhaps there will be special court etiquette officers to train them on the etiquette and procedures to follow when meeting the king?
Will they have gorgeous formal gowns tailored to their needs?
Will they walk into the palace with their heads held high on a sunny and bright morning, warmly welcomed by the court band?

Will their names and deeds be carried around the continent of Prentis by bards? Will countless people hear of Pete Chinar's glorious deeds?

Pete felt excited just thinking about it.

Alcandas smiled mysteriously and did not answer Pete's question immediately:
"Follow me, and you'll know when you get down there."

……

Walking down the narrow staircase in the corner of the attic of the Mage Tower, passing the Grand Mage's living room, study, storage room, secret treasure room and other areas, they came to the reception room almost at the bottom of the Mage Tower.

There is also a strong magical style here.

【Illumination】Lamps that provide light;

The [Mage's Hand], which is powered by the Mage Tower and continues to exist, uses a variety of cleaning tools to keep all the furniture spotless.

As soon as the three of them sat down on the soft sofa, they began to massage rhythmically;

The swaying tea set flew from the air, and the teapot jumped up automatically, pouring the steaming tea evenly into the silver teacup next to it;

The teaspoon next to it gently taps the container filled with condiments such as milk, sugar, lemon slices and honey, making a tinkling sound, reminding guests to choose their favorite flavors.

Lancelot had never seen such a scene before and was so nervous that he was at a loss as to what to do.

Everything here has been cast with [activation magic] and possesses a certain degree of "intelligence".

The scope of activation magic is very broad.

From revitalizing a broom or a spoon to revitalizing a magnificent and majestic sculpture.

Depending on the activated item, the complexity of the magic model that needs to be constructed will also vary, and the consumption will also vary greatly.

This is a magic with a strength rating ranging from level 1 to level 6.

Although magic has been integrated into daily life to a large extent after a large influx of believers from the Church of Knowledge in Ceylon, it has not yet become so popular that any piece of furniture can be enchanted with magic.

Not to mention whether there are enough spellcasters to maintain the continued effectiveness of the activation magic, the materials it consumes alone are a huge expense.

Pete had some experience, and whispered to the spoon, "Just a little bit of sugar."

The silver teaspoon jumped happily into the container of sugar, scooped out a little, and then shook it slightly in the air to signal to Pete.

"OK, no problem."

After receiving the customer's confirmation, the teaspoon immediately poured the sugar into the teacup, stirred it lively for a while, and then flew away swayingly to clean himself.

Seeing this, Miranda and Lancelot hurriedly followed suit.

"Hehe, maybe there haven't been many customers recently, so these little guys are a little lonely." Archmage Alcandas explained to Pete and the others with a smile, "They have no ill intentions, and I hope they won't cause you any trouble." The archmage also poured a cup of tea, into which a large spoonful of sugar and honey had just been secretly added with a teaspoon.

"Ahaha, the little guys still know my hobbies so well."

"When you get older, you just like to drink something sweet. After all, you've had too much bitterness in the past!"

Alcandas took a sip of the sweet tea and a happy smile appeared on his face.

Pete was inexplicably curious. Why wasn't the 116-year-old wizard worried about tooth decay when he drank something so sweet every day?
But he really didn't have the nerve to ask.

"Let's get back to the point. My mission here has been completed. His Majesty the King asked me to invite you and send you to the capital."

"For follow-up matters - there will be someone responsible for communicating with you."

As he spoke, Alcandas glanced at the grandfather clock in the living room: "It's almost time, he should be here soon, please wait a moment."

The great wizard drank his sugar water, shook his head and walked towards the wizard tower, humming a folk tune from somewhere unknown, and left the reception room.

……

Just as the great wizard had estimated, when the hour hand of the grandfather clock pointed to 1 o'clock in the afternoon, a wave of movement that Pete felt vaguely familiar with suddenly surged in the room.

That's the feeling of shadow energy being stirred.

Because Reina often entered or exited [Stealth] beside him, Pete was quite familiar with the fluctuations of shadow energy.

A middle-aged female figure suddenly appeared in the reception room of the Mage Tower.

The other person was wearing a tight leather jacket, a black mask and a hood, leaving only a pair of eyes and ears exposed.

Pete could only tell her gender by her curvy body.

"Mr. Chinal, Ms. Warren, Mr. Smith."

"MI6, 'Index Finger' Evelyn, please allow me to greet you all on behalf of His Majesty Kenreddin."

Pete and Miranda were both stunned.

They both knew what MI6 stood for.

This is a secret internal intelligence organization that is not widely known.

It is said that all the spies inside are experienced spies. Without exception, they are directly loyal to the royal family and are responsible for investigating and collecting various intelligence and information in the Kingdom of Reyak, and then reporting them truthfully to His Majesty the King.

When nobles and officials failed to perform their duties, evidence of their crimes would be secretly collected by MI6 agents and then handed over to His Majesty the King for judgment and punishment.

MI6 spies are elusive, and although this organization really exists, very few people have seen real MI6 members in person.

After joining MI6, the agents will completely give up their previous lives, hide in the shadows forever, and become the eyes and ears of the royal family in the shadows.

Pete suddenly felt like something was wrong.

Didn’t Archmage Alcandas say that His Majesty the King intended to invite them to meet in person?

Shouldn't the people who interact with them be court ceremonial officials whose every move is perfectly in line with etiquette?

And then an MI6 agent shows up to meet them?!
