Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 73 Leaving Home
"Any other questions?" Eve stretched and said, "If not, I'll leave."

"Yes, if the offspring of the evil god can't be born," Klein tapped the armrest lightly, frowning and saying, "Then we'll have to deal with Miss Megose..."

Eve's ocean-blue eyes held a smile, "From the moment she became pregnant with the evil god's offspring, she could no longer be considered a living being."

"At this point, Megose has become half a discarded pawn. The success rate of this plan is very low. In fact, if he could bring the Aurora Society into the picture, there would still be a chance. Unfortunately, he doesn't want to do that."

"..."

Klein was silent for a moment, then opened his mouth and asked, "Have you...ever thought about dealing with the 'audience'?"

"I'm a little interested, that's all." Eve leaned back and looked at Klein. "If you want to deal with him, I will help you."

"Any more?"

Klein lowered his eyes to look at Eve and shook his head slightly.

"Okay then," Eve stood up, "goodbye."

After leaving Sefirah Castle, Eve fell directly onto her bed.

He turned his head, looked at himself in the mirror, and sat up suddenly.

Let’s go out for a walk.

……

The City of Generosity, Bayam, always seemed bustling with activity. The sounds of hawkers rang out incessantly, and the unique scent of the sea permeated the city.

A blonde lady in a blue cloak, with a big golden retriever at her feet and a black cat in her arms, walked gracefully on the street.

The beautiful girl opened her pair of emerald green eyes, as charming as gems, and looked around curiously.

This was the first time Audrey came to such a faraway place alone without telling her family. It was a very novel experience for her and it brought her a unique sense of excitement.

"Rarity," Audrey reached out and stroked the black cat's soft fur, "You're amazing."

“Meow~meow!”

A white hand pinched the black cat's neck and lifted it out of Audrey's arms.

"Ray!"

Audrey heard Ruirui's cry, and then felt her arms empty. She immediately turned to look at the person who came.

"Ms. Eve?" Audrey was stunned for a moment when she saw the person coming, and then she felt a little nervous and curious. Her beautiful eyes flashed with curiosity as she observed Eve carefully, as if she wanted to see what was different about her from others.

Before coming, Ruirui had told her that this ability to travel quickly was called "travel" and was an extraordinary ability that only those at Sequence Five of the Apprentice Path could possess. Miss Eve was definitely an extremely powerful extraordinary person who could give such a powerful extraordinary item to her pet.

I wonder what path Miss Eve took. How did she get from Backlund to Bayam? Did she also travel? Is Miss Eve an Apprentice Path Beyonder? Or does Miss Eve also possess a Beyonder item like Rarity?

"Good afternoon, Miss Audrey," Eve pinched Ruirui's ear and looked up at the beautiful girl in front of her. "Would you like to have breakfast together?"

"Breakfast?" Audrey was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and said with a smile, "Okay."

"Has Miss Audrey ever been to Bayam?"

Audrey shook her head slightly and said, "No."

"Then I'll be Miss Audrey's tour guide," Eve said with a chuckle. "The first place I'd like to introduce is, of course, Bayam's famous Dress Restaurant. It's famous for its Rhodes Islands cuisine and is very popular with tourists. Rhodes Islands cuisine is rich in spices and has a strong flavor. What do you think, Miss Audrey?"

"I think it's great," Audrey said with anticipation, a smile on her face. "I can't wait to try it."

"Then let's go now," Eve put Ruirui on the ground and said with a smile, "Otherwise I might starve to death on the way to Dress's Restaurant."

Eve brought Audrey to Dress Restaurant. This restaurant, emphasizing the characteristics of the Ross Islands, was decorated with gold ornaments in the style of the Southern Continent. Of course, it was hard to tell if the gold was genuine. However, the restaurant's overall architectural style leaned more towards Loon, with a distinctly European style. Sunlight streamed in through large glass windows. Neatly arranged tables and chairs, comfortable sofas, and an exquisite wooden wine cabinet were also present. Through the glass doors, one could clearly see the precious wines and reds on display. However, Dress Restaurant's main offerings weren't the luxury items on display.

"Rui Rui, you and Susie stay outside," Eve said, patting the black cat's head. "Protect Susie."

"Meow."

Eve and Audrey said goodbye to the two young ladies and walked into the restaurant. Led by the waiter to their seats, Eve took the menu, ordered a few dishes, and handed it to Audrey.

"Ms. Audrey, please take a look," Eve said. "It's my treat."

"Huh?" Audrey was stunned for a moment, took the menu and looked at Eve.

"Ha, after all, Miss Audrey treated me to so many delicious desserts. I would feel guilty if I didn't do something for Miss Audrey." Eve said sincerely, "Please give me a chance, Miss Audrey."

"Then..." Audrey thought for a moment, "Thank you Miss Eve for your hospitality."

Audrey took the menu, read it carefully, hesitated for a while, and finally ordered a dish of grilled fish, a bottle of red wine, and a cheese steak.

Eve chuckled after seeing this and said, "Don't worry, Miss Audrey. The prices in this restaurant are not high. I can still afford it."

Audrey looked in the direction of the voice and saw Eve looking at her with a smile on her face. The audience could only interpret that she seemed to be in a good mood and did not feel dissatisfied with being looked down upon.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief. She just didn't want to trouble Miss Eve too much.

Audrey smiled and said, "That's enough."

The waiter wrote down the names of the dishes one by one. When he was about to leave, Eve stopped him and said, "Another grilled fish, not spicy, take it away."

"Okay, miss."

After the waiter left, Eve and Audrey sat facing each other. He propped his chin with one hand and asked, "Has Miss Audrey been to the Southern Continent?"

"I've been here a few times," Audrey recalled. "I once traveled to the South Continent with my family."

“I used to travel with my family,” Eve said with a smile. “That was a really happy thing.”

Audrey hadn't known Eve for long, but after many conversations, mutual visits, and correspondence, she had a good understanding of Eve's situation. Looking at Eve, she suddenly remembered that Eve had lived alone in Backlund for more than ten years, and no one had ever seen her family in those years.

Audrey pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment, then opened her mouth, trying to change the subject. "My history and geography teachers have both taught me about the Southern Continent. I can say I understand it quite well, but there are some questions I still don't understand."

"What's the problem?" Eve followed up on Audrey's question.

"The traditional beliefs of the Southern Continent are the God of Death and the Chaos Witch. The God of Death is a belief unique to the Southern Continent, while the Chaos Witch's faith also exists in the Northern Continent. Even before Emperor Roselle's war, Chaos Witch believers had always had the right to openly preach in the Kingdom of Loen. Why did the Chaos Witch's faith appear in both the Southern and Northern Continents?"

"Perhaps the northern and southern continents were connected before the Fifth Epoch," Eve said.

Audrey nodded, then raised a question, "Perhaps, but the followers of the Chaos Witch should know about the existence of the North and South Continents. Logically, they should have discovered the route earlier than Emperor Roselle."

"Maybe not," Eve replied with a smile. "Anything else? We can discuss it together. Even if we can't get an answer, debate itself is an interesting activity, isn't it?"

"Hmm," Audrey nodded. She tilted her head back slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Many high-ranking officials who served during the time of Emperor Russell mentioned in their memoirs that he proposed a colonization strategy when he was in the Gangnan Continent, but he never implemented it and even destroyed the relevant documents in his later years. Do you think this is true, Miss Eve?"

"Maybe it's true."

"I think it's true, too, but..." Audrey tilted her head slightly, a hint of doubt in her eyes, "Why did Emperor Roselle regret it again?"

"Who knows." Eve smiled and said, "But this is a good thing, isn't it?"

　I'm sorry for not updating for so many days. I'm not skipping, I'm just having a writer's block. I have a lot of scenes in my mind, but I don't know how to connect them together, so I plan to take a break for a while.

　　Everyone, please stop chasing me and don’t subscribe. Now I’m really worried about whether I can finish it. Those who have turned it on automatically, please turn it off and come back when it reaches 50 words. Don’t worry that this book will die because no one subscribes.
