Emlyn White was silent for a moment, thinking, but finally nodded bitterly:

"That's right, Miss Justice. Even though I know the background of the Vampire Clan, I still think that the Vampire Clan cannot be hostile to such a terrifying existence."

Emlyn seemed to remember that he was in a predicament that was almost contaminated because of the moon. When he sought help from the Church of the Night Goddess and Mr. Fool, he twitched the corners of his lips and smiled self-deprecatingly:

"What can resist one god must be another god. Praise Mr. Fool, it was he who saved my life at that time."

Fors nodded understandingly, and Xio also expressed his approval. Aside from the two members of White Tower and Justice, the other three attendees at the offline gathering had all been saved by Mr. Fool to some degree.

The former is stronger than the current Mr. Fool, while the latter has not encountered any terrible disaster.

Seeing that the atmosphere at the party was a little gloomy for a while, Audrey said quickly:

"So I'm afraid that's why Mr. Fool is willing to let us assist Mr. World in our actions."

"Mr. World is the favored one of The Fool, and Mr. The Fool has helped us many times to keep us away from evil. At least in my opinion, Mr. The Fool has great hopes for us and mankind. of goodwill.”

"Perhaps we need our help in these matters because although Mr. Fool is powerful, he is still a god in the state of recovery after all."

"For Mr. Fool, when investigating a figure like George III who is both powerful and at the center of the empire, it is more convenient to use the power of the mortal world."

Oh, it's so hard for me to host this kind of party alone. Unlike Mr. Fool, who does nothing at every party and can give us such a strong sense of security just by sitting there.

Audrey turned around and spoke to everyone first:

"My family has some financial resources in Backlund. I will now assist Mr. World in approaching George III and investigate whether, as Mr. Fool believes, George III intends to use a victorious war to jump to another path and emulate Arista Tudor to become a true god of the Red Priest path."

"Similarly, as a supplement to Miss Justice's investigation, I will also use the power of the church to provide some help." Gao Wei Overlooker added, without mentioning any other aspects of his affairs.

Of course, he will not provide substantial help to these people, but will only give a few pointers to these members of the Tarot Club in some key places.

After all, he also had to ensure that his cooperation with Alistair Tudor could be successfully completed, allowing Tudor to become a "Red Priest" and thus backstab an ancestor of the Augustus family, and obtain the Sequence One characteristic of the "Judge" path that "He" needed most at this stage.

"As for the specific matters, I will relay them to you later through Mr. World and Mr. Fool in the Tarot meeting." Audrey made a cautious decision:

"When facing a god, no matter how cautious we are, it is necessary. I will not use this place as our gathering place later. Emperor Russell once said, 'Everyone who walks through will leave traces.' If we continue to rely on this channel to communicate, it will undoubtedly increase the possibility of exposure in the eyes of our gods."

Just don’t want such a carefully crafted contact point? Forsi was stunned for a second, and then thought that Mr. Fool's Tarot would serve as a relay. There was no doubt that it was much safer than contact in the real world.

"Well, perhaps I've said too much, but I won't force you to assist Mr. World. As for me, I not only hope that my family and I won't be sacrificed in George III's deification, but I also don't want the ordinary residents of Backlund to become destined victims of George III's apotheosis ritual."

Audrey added, she glanced at the two ladies, Forsi and Xio, and saw thoughtful looks in their eyes.

But through the eyes of the two of them, Audrey couldn't help but nodded secretly. For them, Xio wanted to investigate matters related to the royal family, and Forsi was also a kind person and would also support his friends and Audrey and Xio's actions.

Emlyn, who was sitting opposite her, lowered his head. He looked at the people in front of him and laughed as if he was mocking himself.

"Even for my own sake, I believe I need to do my best to assist Mr. Fool."

"Although, well, I could just flee Backlund and take my parents to the mainland border. But the Mother Goddess's teachings teach us that every life is precious. Whether it's me, those residents who believe in the Mother Goddess, or even more ordinary people, none of them should become victims of George III's plan."

"So, as a noble vampire, I will also participate in this action."

Emlyn White held his head high and spoke precisely to the people in front of him.

Seeing Emlyn's reaction, Audrey patted her palms gently:

"Mr. Moon, you have a thorough understanding of the teachings of Mother Earth. You will definitely become an excellent priest in the future."

"Ah? No, no, I'm just an ordinary believer. I'm a vampire, and my heart still goes to the ancestor - Mother Goddess, why is this like this?"

Emlyn's expression froze, and then a kind laugh was heard in the room.

"what?"

……

"Everywhere you go, you leave a trace. This is what Edmund Roca, the 'Father of Forensics', said."

The high-dimensional overlooker placed the light screen in front of the "Black Emperor" with the crown:

"I didn't expect you to know this, Emperor Russell?"

"Get out of here!"

I will update one day tomorrow to organize the subsequent outline. I now have an idea about the later plot, and I will think about it carefully tomorrow.

Chapter 321 Invitation

Klein put away the banknotes in front of him, and after counting out 10,000 gold pounds, he sighed deeply:

"We have to find a way to convert this money into gold coins to pay Ms. Reinette."

He put away the cane in his hand, and a white dove landed on him and pecked at his clothes. Klein smiled gently and did not drive away the white dove. He just turned it into his marionette and let the white dove stand on his shoulders.

Asnia on the side bent down and said to Klein in front of him:

"Mr. Dantès, as you received before, the dance that Senator Macht invited you to is about to begin."

Hearing his butler's voice, Klein turned his head and looked at Asnia with gentle eyes:

"I see."

After dealing with some tedious matters these past few days, Klein also used the tutors hired by several butlers, as well as the butlers' and Aurora Company's connections, to help "Dawn Dantès" enter the social circle of Backlund's nobles around him.

Not only in the commercial district, but even among the lower-ranking nobles in the New Queens Borough, a large number of them were quite familiar with Dwayne Dantes, a newcomer from a wealthy family. Of course, they were familiar with him in a social sense.

Actually, this was easy to understand. After all, Klein's hidden identity within the Church of Evernight, coupled with his background within the Aurora Company and Dwayne Dantès's publicized identity as a follower of the Church of the Creator, was enough to pique the other nobles' curiosity about the newcomer, Mr. Dantès.

At this time, part of Klein's mission itself came from the Goddess of Night, so the Church of Night also helped Klein a lot. Under the intentional or unintentional hints of the bishop, Dwayne Dantès easily established good relationships with others.

Klein, surrounded by servants, boarded his family's luxury carriage. He watched it drive through Commercial Street and into New Queens.

Today, Dwayne Dantès was wearing a black formal suit. The badge of the Church of the Creator on his chest had been removed and replaced with a silver cross-shaped ornament around his neck.

Today's occasion is not suitable for wearing too serious religious badges. Fortunately, the teachings of the Church of the Creator are not too serious and allow ordinary people to make certain modifications to the cross pattern to make it more beautiful.

Klein chose this ornament with a certain religious connotation in order to strengthen others' impression that he was a believer in the Creator.

Klein looked at the scene of New Queens deliberately and sighed.

"What's wrong, Mr. Dantes?" Richardson, Dwayne Dantes's personal butler chosen by Walter, was sitting on the side. He was holding a bottle of beautifully packaged Southwell red wine and asked his employer nervously.

"I'm just sighing." Klein twitched the corners of his mouth and showed a gentle smile:

"There are so many opportunities in the empire right now. Many positions here still have no owners. Perhaps one day I will be able to have a place here that belongs to me and fill one of the vacancies."

He said it deliberately so that servants who might be bribed by other families or gossipy servants could hear it.

At the same time, this can be regarded as an action he took to improve his personality. Klein does not have to worry about others worrying about his such ambitions. After all, it is not uncommon for people to be knighted in the Loen Empire now, and there are countless opportunities for people like them.

However, Klein obviously didn't give his manservant time to answer. He smiled slightly, and after a short time in the carriage, he arrived at Senator Macht's doorstep.

He tidied up his clothes and the cross decoration around his neck, and hid it in his collar so that it didn't look so prominent.

Klein smiled slightly and took the cane beside him:

"Let's go visit Senator Macht."

Richardson, who was standing by, holding the bottle of red wine, responded briefly and followed closely behind his employer.

As soon as he got out of the car, Klein was slightly shocked by the somewhat luxurious scene around him. Different from the commercial street, the villas in New Queens District are quite large in area, even enough to be called a small manor.

But even so, there is still quite a lot of space in the New Queens District and no nobles live there. Some remote places will look a little empty.

After a brief exchange of courtesies, Klein took the red wine from his personal valet and presented it to the host of the banquet as a small gift. This was a custom in the Loen Empire.

After that, the Macht couple led Dwayne Dantes through a small garden with a white corridor and into the banquet hall.

Klein paid attention to the layout of the banquet hall next to him. He saw two rows of band members holding instruments in their hands playing together, and melodious melodies flowed naturally from their hands to the outside.

Just one step forward, a girl in a long dress, with dark green wavy hair and bright dark brown eyes stood there. Her face was calm, but there was a lively look in her eyes.

Well, this person looks like the daughter of Senator Macht...

Klein paid attention and sensed a slightly tired look on this beautiful young lady. While looking away, Klein used the white dove outside the window to carefully observe the girl. However, at this moment, he felt a familiar smell penetrate his nose.

This lady's body smells of essential oils from the night realm... This combination is rare and usually only appears during rituals - well, these smells are mainly concentrated in her hands, perhaps when she is pouring the essential oils Did you get some on it?

The demigod level is indeed fundamentally different from ordinary people. Haha, if I were to look at it before, I would not be able to observe so many things just by relying on the observation ability of the "faceless man". Now that I have some of the qualities of a mythical creature, even my sense of smell has become extraordinary...

From this point of view, this young lady is likely to be a lover of mysticism, or a low-sequence Beyonder. Well, judging from her age, even if she is an Extraordinary, her rank should not be too high.

However, this cannot be said. After all, it only took me less than two years to become a demigod...

Klein politely pressed his chest to salute the girl with a guilty conscience, while Hazel responded with the same polite smile.

Klein noticed that when he saluted, the young lady put away her originally alert eyes that were observing the surroundings, and replaced them with a calm look with a hint of arrogance.

As time passed, the guests had almost all arrived. Councilman Macht, the host, apologized to Dwayne Dantès, who was chatting with him, and then he and his wife ascended the stairs to the second floor of the banquet hall.

After a brief pause, Senator Macht raised his glass of red wine and said to the guests who had come to the banquet hall:

"Thank you for participating in this dance. First of all, let us praise God, which is the source of all good things."

He and his wife nodded four times on their chests and were the first to praise the goddess.

Klein originally wanted to make the same move, but he then remembered that in his current identity, he believed in the Creator, so he quietly changed the "Crimson Moon" pattern he originally wanted to draw to left, right, and The up and down gestures drew a cross on his chest.

This may be considered the price of having too complicated beliefs... Klein, who was almost exposed, felt dumbfounded after making this move.

Representative Macht, who was standing on the second floor, still did not put down the cup in his hand. With a bright smile on his face, he said:

"Let us praise His Majesty the Emperor, let us praise the Empire; it is because of the Empire that we will have such a stable and bright future."

Congressman Macht comes from the military. For him, he is indeed not as disgusted by the war as a member of the conservatives. And during the war with Intis, although the economy at the bottom of the Loen Empire was greatly damaged, it had little to do with these nobles...

Haha, I am really not made for nobles... I will never be able to regard other civilians as "untouchables" like them... Klein secretly shook his head in his heart, and he raised the wine in his hand. The cup with liquid in it, followed the surrounding guests and said sincerely:

"Praise His Majesty the Emperor, praise the Empire."

……

After a brief opening speech, Congressman Macht and his wife went down to the first-floor lobby and performed a ceremonial opening dance.

Holding a glass of champagne in his hand, Klein was casually looking for someone to invite to dance.

Well, every man here will target and try to invite those women to dance. I probably need to find one too, otherwise it would be rude, but I have to think hard about what kind of lady I should look for.

Although the upper social circles of the Loen Empire would most likely not be rejected as long as they invited people of similar status, if they did not choose the right person, it would likely affect Dwayne Dantès's reputation and would also likely cause a series of troubles for the invited ladies.

But here comes the problem. I don't know many people right now. Some of the ladies I know, according to the social etiquette of the Loen Empire, give their first dance to their husbands. So who should I invite?

Klein hesitated slightly. Although Dwayne Dantes looked only in his thirties, he was actually in his early forties. It would obviously be inappropriate for him to invite a young girl for the first dance.
