Chapter 84 Asuna (Available tomorrow, please pre-order!)
Send Grace away after she gets what she wants.

Isabella was about to rest when a maid brought her news.

There was news about the widowed Viscountess Karin Molders, whom she had asked someone to inquire about.

The Viscountess's residence was less than a hundred miles away from her private residence.

Isabella took out the letter Cohen gave her before he left and wanted to ask someone to deliver it.

After thinking about it, I decided that since there was nothing else to do, I might as well go there in person.

The Viscountess was surprised when she received the report from the guard.

Although the Moldes family has a certain status in the Central Empire.

But compared with the "Golden Wing Family", the family headed by the "Pale Wing" that spans the continent, there is still a big gap.

The first heir of the Golden Wing family came to visit in person. The Viscountess did not dare to treat him lightly and hurried out to greet him.

After being a widow for many years, the Viscountess's face is still beautiful, and the traces of time have only added a bit of mature charm to her.

He still retains the elegance and reserve of an aristocrat in his every gesture.

Isabella was led into the living room. The two exchanged pleasantries. Finally, Isabella told the purpose of her visit:
"Excuse me, ma'am, but I'm here to deliver a letter."

The Viscountess felt relieved. At first, she thought that someone in the family had caused trouble and offended the Daughter of Golden Wings, and that they had come to the house to demand an explanation.

Seeing that it was just an ordinary private matter, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked casually:

"I don't know which friend actually bothered Miss Wen Ze to deliver the letter in person."

Isabella did not answer directly, but asked:

"Does your ladyship have a squire knight named Asuna?"

The Viscountess frowned slightly, revealing obvious doubts:
"Yes, Asuna is indeed my squire knight. Could this letter be for Asuna?"

Isabella nodded and said:

"Yes, it's a friend of mine who asked me to pass this letter to her."

Isabella took out the letter Cohen gave her.

The Viscountess called her maid, and soon the sound of powerful footsteps was heard.

Asuna Iliad was tall and slender, with a slender figure. She wore silver armor with a few scratches from swords on it.

Her soft and shiny chestnut hair was tied up high, her nose was straight, her eyes were bright as stars, and her slightly raised eyebrows revealed her innate heroic spirit.

He pursed his lips slightly, with a serious expression, and his wet hair and panting breath showed that he had just been undergoing hard training.

Even if she doesn't smile, she still has a charming charm.

Isabella raised her eyebrows slightly and sneered inwardly. Is this what Cohen meant by not being pretty?

Oh! A man's mouth!

The Viscountess frowned slightly when she saw Asuna's outfit and asked:

"Did you fight with someone again?"

Asuna lowered her head slightly, but her voice was extremely penetrating:

"Viscountess, I just want to break through the extraordinary as soon as possible and become your true knight!"

The Viscountess sighed:
“Talent is something that comes naturally; there’s no need to force it.

Isn’t it good to be an ordinary person?
With your looks, you don't need to work so hard."

Asuna pursed her red lips even tighter and didn't reply.

Isabella spoke at the right time:
"Is this Miss Asuna Iliad?"

The Viscountess then realized that there was another guest here and quickly introduced:

"Asuna, this is Miss Isabella Wenzel, the heiress of the Golden Wing family."

Asuna's eyes flashed with surprise, and she politely said:
"Hello, Miss Wen Ze."

Isabella returned the gift and handed the letter to the other party:

"This is a letter a friend of mine asked me to give you. He said you will understand after reading it."

"he?"

Asuna took the letter with confusion and murmured:

"I don't seem to have any male friends with whom I correspond."

Thinking this way, she unfolded the letter and read it in front of the two of them without any intention of avoiding suspicion. The Viscountess smiled helplessly at Isabella.

Isabella didn't mind, but instead felt that Asuna's straightforward personality was very much to her liking.

Asuna unfolded the letter and frowned slightly at the unfamiliar handwriting.

She continued to read, and soon the expression on her face changed from calm to astonishment, and then to faint excitement and disbelief.

Su Bai held the letter tightly in her hands, her eyes revealing a complex array of emotions. She asked Isabella:
"Ms. Wen Ze, may I ask what the friend who gave you the letter looks like? Who is he?"

Isabelle was slightly surprised. Judging from Asuna's expression, the letter clearly mentioned something extremely important to her.

It seems that what Cohen said about Asuna's father being an old friend is not nonsense.

She said calmly:

"He is a very charming young man. As for his identity, I can only tell you that he is definitely a trustworthy friend."

Isabella's ambiguous words surprised Asuna even more, and she couldn't help but speak:
"Young man? Are you sure?"

Isabella nodded firmly.

Asuna paced back and forth, holding the letter. Finally, she spoke to the Viscountess with a firm gaze:
"Madam, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but I want to leave the Moldes family!"

The Viscountess was surprised and asked:

"Son, what do you mean by leaving?"

Asuna raised the letter in her hand, her voice filled with uncontrollable excitement:
"The person who wrote to me told me that he had news that my father was missing!"

The Viscountess was even more surprised and said:

"Hasn't old Iliad been missing for five years? Why is there news all of a sudden? Could he be a liar..."

He stopped talking abruptly before he finished speaking and smiled apologetically at Isabella.

Asuna shook her head firmly.
"He can't be a liar. The letter said a lot about my father. He even knew some of my living habits.

These details could only have come from my father himself.

The person who wrote the letter had definitely met my father.

Madam, I must go.

The only condition the other party proposed was... that I go to see him free.

So please forgive my intrusion, I want to quit the Molders family!"

Of course, there was one thing Asuna didn't mention in the letter, which was that the writer claimed to know her mother!

Mother, these two words are a very distant memory in Asuna's mind.

As far as she can remember, she has never had her mother by her side.

Asuna had already made up her mind to meet the person who wrote to her no matter what.

The Viscountess clearly understood Asuna's character very well. She shook her head slightly.

"There's no need to talk about quitting or not. You have no obligation to be loyal to our family.

Your father has given everything for the Molders family."

Asuna's face showed gratitude and she said:

"Madam, I will always remember your kindness."

The Viscountess turned to look at Isabella and said softly:

"Ms. Wen Ze, I want to confirm one last time, is this friend you mentioned really reliable?

Don't blame me for being suspicious. Asuna is a very simple girl and I don't want her to be deceived or hurt."

Isabella's heart was beating fast.

She knew that Cohen had a certain ability to predict the future, but no matter how powerful his ability was, it was impossible for him to deduce everything about Asuna's father so clearly.

Asuna just mentioned so many details that cannot be explained by prophetic ability alone.

Could it be that Cohen really knew Asuna's father?

Facing the Viscountess's burning gaze, Isabella gritted her teeth and replied firmly:

"Viscountess, I assure you on the honor of the Golden Wing family that this gentleman will never harm Miss Asuna Iliad!"
