"Master Reese, Miss Lucy, the lord has been waiting for a long time, please come inside." Cruise smiled gracefully and made a gesture of invitation.

"Thank you, Mr. Cruise." Lucy smiled politely.

"Lucy, I want to play..." Lilith patted Lucy's hand and said in a delicate tone.

Lucy's heart was about to melt, and she almost agreed instinctively. When she came back to her senses, she remembered that this was deliberately pretended by Lilith. She changed her tone and said softly, "No, young master, I have to see the lord first."

"Ah... the young master said he was going to play! Let me take him to play!" Madam didn't think too much, she was completely fascinated by Lilith's coquettish appearance just now, instead she said loudly with confidence.

Qianyue Ying at the side poked Madam with the scabbard without changing her expression, and then she came back to her senses and coughed in embarrassment.

Cruise looked at the young man surrounded by three beauties who were all over the world. Although there was nothing unusual in appearance, he felt a little envious in his heart.

No matter how many times he saw these top beauties following this little kid all day long, he felt it was a pity.

"Miss Lucy, there is still some time before the ball starts. The lord specially ordered me to receive everyone in the VIP room to rest and discuss some matters by the way."

Even with Lilith's current disguised identity, she is the head of the family, but Cruise already instinctively regarded Lucy as the real talker and ruler in his heart.

"The lord is interested, and my young master has also explained some things. I need to discuss it with the lord later." Lucy was telling the truth, but it was Lilith who told her.

But Cruise didn't think so. He didn't think the boy would have any serious business to explain. It was probably thought up by the beautiful butler himself.

"Oh? What's the matter? Why didn't I know? Ah, is it the gem I mentioned last time! Does the lord have it here?" Lilith continued to play dumb.

"I will buy it back for the young master in a few days. What I have to discuss with the lord now is something else. The young master may have forgotten it, but it's okay, I'll just talk about it." Lucy pressed Lilith's shoulder and smiled.

"It's already here, Miss Lucy, please come inside." Cruise couldn't stand it anymore, opened the door of the room, and changed the subject.

But when Lilith and the others were about to go in, Qian Yueying was stopped by the guards.

"Miss, can you please put your knife here temporarily, we will keep it for you." The guard said respectfully.

"Presumptuous!" A middle-aged man's voice came from the room, and it was the lord who was walking towards him.

"My lord." Several guards were startled and lowered their heads.

"Are your eyes just for decoration!? Don't you know this is my distinguished guest!?" The lord scolded, and when he turned his head to face Lilith and the others, he immediately put on a smiling face, "It's really rude, Rees Master, Miss Lucy, please come inside."

"No, it doesn't matter." Lucy and the others didn't care.

Lilith, Lucy, and Madam all sat down on the gorgeous soft chairs, only Qian Yueying didn't intend to sit down, but stood behind Lilith.

Lucy hugged Lilith, made her sit on her lap, and rested her head on her chest. Since the dress had less fabric on the chest, the soft bounce of Lilith when she leaned on it made the lord and Cruise swallowed instinctively. In order not to lose his composure, they forcibly turned their eyes away and looked aside.

Madam took out the tobacco stick, lit it, took a puff, and slowly exhaled the smoke ring.

"My lord, I have some good news for you." Lucy said directly with her arms around Lilith.

"Oh?" The lord frowned, "All ears."

"We already have preliminary information on the dens of the cult organization and its leader in your territory, and the complete information will be available in two days. I can guarantee the authenticity and reliability of the source of the information with my life."

"What... what!?" The lord was taken aback, and looked at Cruise, a little in disbelief.

You know, this cult organization, they don't know how much effort they have put in to find its dens and leaders, but in the end they just destroy some small organizations that are innocuous to them. How long have these women been here, and now they are found?

Things were a little sudden, and both the lord and Cruise were a little suspicious.

"This...Miss Lucy... are you really sure about the authenticity of this information?" The lord laughed a few times.

"We are very good at intelligence gathering, and I just said that I can guarantee my life. Do you think I said this casually?"

"No, no, no, Miss Lucy is serious, but you have to know that we didn't find it after a lot of effort...Of course, I don't doubt your ability, it's just that it happened suddenly..." The lord still didn't believe it. Can be as tactful as possible.

Lucy thought for a while, and then said in another way, "I know it will be difficult to convince the lord at this time, after all, there is a saying that seeing is believing, then, if it is really its den, after it is destroyed, How much is the specific reward?"

"Miss Lucy, you can rest assured that even if it's not the den, but just a branch, there will be a reward of 50 gold coins. If the den is destroyed and its leader is captured, then the reward will be [-] gold coins, and you can also be granted a title. "

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Noble title?

After hearing this sentence, both Lucy and Lilith were taken aback.

In the past, Lilith and the others would not be interested in the titles of human beings, or even the position of the monarch of the empire, but now it is different. They want to develop and collect information in this empire. If they can have titles, they will do things in the future It will be much more convenient.

50 gold coins plus a title. To be honest, this remuneration exceeded Lilith and Lucy's expectations. I didn't expect that a small cult organization could get so many benefits in exchange.

Lilith raised her head and made eye contact with Lucy for a brief moment. Lucy understood what she meant, and turned to the lord and continued, "My lord, I heard that the prerequisite for being able to hold a title is not that you have to be an imperial citizen for more than five years. Is it possible?"

"Hahaha, that's what I said, but there are exceptions to everything. If you are an outstanding person who can eradicate a cult organization, even if you are a citizen of another empire, as long as you want, you can stay in our empire and obtain a title." The lord paused After a while, the eyeballs rolled around and continued, "Why, is Miss Lucy very interested in the title of knighthood?"

Lucy replied without changing her face, "If you say you're not interested, you probably don't even believe it yourself. After all, as long as you get the title, you will have no worries about food and clothing, develop better, and even enjoy glory and wealth."

"Hahaha, that's right." The lord laughed a few times, but he had other thoughts in his heart. He exchanged glances with Cruise, who also nodded.

The lord and Cruise thought they had guessed right. These women were indeed creatures who loved vanity and coveted power. Although they were the same in this regard, this was exactly what they wanted, such a beautiful and capable woman. , It's too wasteful to stay by this brat's side. Now as long as they know that Lucy in front of them is the same kind of person as them, it proves that there is a chance to poach her.

In the eyes of the lord and Cruise, Lucy is the one who holds the real power. As long as she can be dug over, it is only a matter of time before those men who are suffocatingly beautiful and powerful are left.

If these women are for their own use... under their own orders...

The lord glanced at Lucy, madam, and Qianyue Ying, and finally stopped at the big snow-white area on Lucy's chest. He couldn't help swallowing. If these women were on the bed, they would be so intoxicated. ...

"Then, my lord, I will notify you in two days. At that time, you can come here in person or send someone over. As for the main force of this operation, I hope our people will come." Lucy interrupted the lord's fantasy, clear soundtrack.

"Uh...ah, is it a little risky not to add my troops? Miss Lucy, if any of you are injured, it hurts my heart." The lord showed a caring look.

"Your lord can bring your own troops, but I hope our people will do it first. If not, the lord's troops will be dispatched later. After all, we also want to show something, and I hope you can make it happen." Lucy just wanted to come When she could actually catch the cult alive, she was afraid that the lord's subordinates would make trouble.

"Hahaha, since that's the case, then I'm looking forward to Miss Lucy's performance." The lord didn't care, after all, he had seen the power of those women, and he had a certain degree of confidence. If not, his subordinates were not vegetarians either.

"Happy cooperation, my lord." Lucy picked up Lilith and handed it to Madam, then stood up and shook hands with the lord.

"You're welcome." The lord also stood up and shook hands with Lucy.

The madam was so happy that she quickly knocked out the cigarette and hugged Lilith tightly.

The beauty's hand was as warm and soft as jade, but the lord still restrained himself, and only let go after holding it for a while. He was not in a hurry. He would get this superb woman in front of him sooner or later.

"Okay, the ball is about to start, Master Reese, Miss Lucy, Mrs. Hong, Miss Qianyue Ying, please." The lord saluted gracefully and said in a very gentlemanly manner.

"Thank you." Lucy returned a salute, took Lilith's hand, and said, "Let's go, young master."

"Ah! Is it finally time to play!? Yeah! I saw a lot of things I wanted to eat just now!"

"We'll get you what you want to eat later, but make sure you don't run around."

"Good good!"

In fact, Lilith and the others have no interest in this ball at all. They are not interested in the hypocritical social circle of human nobles, but after all, they are invited by this lord and cannot go back early. He will still be useful in the future. Some basic face Still have to give.

Once in the hall, the laughter and conversation of the nobles can be heard endlessly, accompanied by elegant and comfortable music, all the items present exude a luxurious atmosphere, and all the men and women present are well-dressed and have an elegant temperament.

The lord's arrival immediately attracted greetings and compliments from many people. Only they knew how much of those smiles were true.

And when Lucy and the others appeared in the hall, they immediately attracted countless eyes.

The amazement of the man and the envy of the woman all turned to Lucy, Madam, and Qianyue Ying in unison, even causing the originally noisy conversation to stop instantly.

"Lucy, I want to eat that!" Lilith broke the peace and pointed to the cake in front of her.

"Okay, wait a minute, master."

All the people present came back to their senses, with a hint of embarrassment on their faces, but they still couldn't help taking a few sneak peeks in the direction of Lucy and the others. They were all a little curious, where did these girls who were too beautiful to describe come from? Yes, why have they never seen it?And which nobleman is that young man who is called the young master?Could it be from the imperial city?Did the lord invite such a powerful person this time?

Lucy walked to the dining table and picked up the small ceramic plate with the cake, but when she turned around, she was blocked by a tall and handsome noble young man.

"This beautiful lady, I still recommend this cake. It is delicious made of fine chocolate, and it is extremely sweet after a bite. Although, it is not as sweet as you, Miss." The noble young man smiled charmingly, and his voice was full of magnetism. The young girl probably had her face flushed red by his words, at least that's what he had met before.

Unexpectedly, Lucy didn't pay attention. When he walked around like air and came to Lilith, he found that Qian Yueying and his wife were surrounded by countless male nobles, and wanted to invite them to dance together.

"Master, let's eat over there." Lucy took Lilith's hand and walked to the bench beside her.

Clang!

Qian Yueying pulled out the long knife in her hand, and her cold and stern demeanor immediately made the male nobles around her take a few steps back in fright, and followed behind Lilith.

Madam doesn't mind the compliments from these male nobles. After all, she has participated in this kind of ball before, and she really wants to go there with Lilith. Unfortunately, before coming here, Lilith has already given her a spy to get information about these nobles. For the task, I can only show a reluctant smile to deal with these male nobles.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The ball continued, although most of the attention was on the three unknown beauties and the mysterious blond boy.

Surprisingly, there are such beauties beside him, and there are three of them at one time. It is inevitable to make people guess his identity. It is estimated that the family behind him is either a high-status nobleman or a rich man.

Either way, there is value to be approached.

It's a pity that Qianyue Ying's aura is too terrifying, exuding a coercion that strangers should not get close to. Even though most of the nobles here have certain strength, they are still suppressed by that sense of deterrence and dare not approach. Can only stand aside and watch.

The nobles turned to ask the lord, and the lord felt a little proud. After all, this was something to save him face, but he didn't say anything to the other nobles, just explaining that he was his partner.

"Oh? Partner, it seems that the lord has met a lot of powerful people during this period of time." A male nobleman covered his mouth and smiled, his eyes rolled, and he had other thoughts in his heart.

"Wherever it is, I'm just doing what I should do."

"I heard that the lord lord has recently had a cult in the territory. It is said that some cultists who believe in the Lilith witch have caused a lot of trouble and even alarmed the people in the imperial city. Could it be that these people are from the imperial city?"

Hearing this topic, the surrounding nobles were startled and turned their heads to look this way.

It is a big deal for the people from the imperial city to come down. If these people really came down from the imperial city, then other nobles will try their best to win them over, because they don't want all the advantages to be taken by the lord. After all, there are some People, on the surface, chatting and laughing happily with the lord, but in fact, they can't wait to strip the other side's skin.

The lord knew what the nobleman was thinking, he laughed and said, "I've said it before, it's just my personal partner."

When he said this sentence, the lord deliberately emphasized the word "personal", as if he was declaring his sovereignty.

"Ah... that's the case, then I can only wish the lord a smooth cooperation." After the male nobleman finished speaking with a smile on his face, he turned and left.

The lord squinted his eyes, picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp, looked at the back of the nobleman, and snorted coldly.

He knew that some nobles were secretly related to those cults, slave trade, black magic rituals, assassinations, and all kinds of shady cooperation, but he didn't have any evidence. After all, for money and status, few people's hands are clean, of course , The lord has done it before, otherwise, where would he come from his current status.

There are some nobles who have been eyeing his position for a long time, raising these cults, just to bring him down one day.

The pressure from the imperial city is getting bigger and bigger. The lord knows that some people have been complaining to the higher authorities. While supporting these cults in private, they are accusing themselves of incompetence in governance. There have been many evil influence incidents of cult killings. It is really vicious and smart. practice.

Lilith was eating the cake at the side. On the surface, she looked innocent and cute, but her eyes were always focused on the lord and the few nobles. She also heard their conversation just now.

The male nobleman who had just talked with the lord walked out of the hall and stopped at the door. A servant ran in from outside. The male nobleman looked around and leaned close to the servant's ear, opening and closing his mouth, saying something .

Lilith narrowed her eyes slightly, and with her extremely sensitive hearing, she heard what the nobleman said.

"Tell Deli to keep them low-key these days."

Deli...

According to Nasha's information, isn't this Deli the name of the cult leader?

According to the male nobleman's conversation just now, and the cult leader's name just mentioned, Lilith feels that this is not a coincidence.

interesting.

Lilith put down the cake and looked in Madam's direction. After thinking for a while, she pouted, put down the plate holding the cake, and shouted angrily, "Madam! Madam! Where is Madam! I want Madam Feed me!"

"Oh?" Lucy froze for a moment. She didn't know why Lilith called out so suddenly, but she still cooperated, "Okay, let Madam come let Madam come."

"Um????"

The lady who was surrounded by many noble youths was also dumbfounded. Didn't Lilith ask her to collect information here? Why did she suddenly ask herself to go over?

"Ma'am! The young master is calling you!" Lucy also called out.

"Huh? Ah... oh! Okay, come here right away." Madam was confused, but she still walked towards Lilith.

The noble youths around gritted their teeth and stared at the annoying boy, but couldn't express their temper at all. Looking at the graceful red lady, they sighed in disappointment.

This brat is really a blessing he cultivated in his previous life, and he actually made such a few peerless beauties obedient.

"What's the matter, master? Is the cake not delicious? Do you want another one?" Sitting next to Lilith, the lady immediately changed into a gentle and watery appearance, almost making the noble youths around her envious. The eyes are about to fall off.

"Hmph, I just don't like you being surrounded by those stinky men!" Lilith's coquettish appearance immediately made Madam's cheeks blush.

"Okay, okay, then I won't be with those stinky men anymore, just stay with the young master, okay, the young master is really a naughty ~ naughty ~ it's not good to be so clingy~" Madam is very into the drama, Laughing, her appearance was even a little wretched, how strange it would be to add a touch of wretch to such an extremely beautiful face, so she stretched out her hand and tapped Lilith's nose.

Seeing her proud look, Lilith's mouth twitched, clenched her fists, restrained her urge to hit someone, and hugged Madam, "Madam is mine! Don't allow other men to approach!"

The noble youths on the side looked as ugly as they could be. Their jealousy made them want to trample this damn kid to death. Unfortunately, due to their own identities, they still pretended to be calm. , is simply lowering one's own identity.

"Yohohohoho... The young master really likes me." The happiness came so suddenly, Madam felt that she was about to ascend to heaven, and she even showed a complacent look, looking at Lucy in front of her.

Lucy looked puzzled. Lilith called her over, obviously she had something to tell Madam, why was she so proud?

"The male noble with a beard, wearing gold and red clothes, and drinking red wine in front of you approached him and seduced him. It's best to get in his carriage and go with him when you go back next time. We will pick you up later. He has the information we want." Lilith said in Madam's ear.
