Chapter 2708 Reward Farewell and Frankness
[No. 】
“She” whispered in his ear. Although Shade was slightly surprised, he still smiled and answered Margaret’s question:
“No, I guess James Cumming is not your brother.”
“You really know everything. Is there anything in this world that you don’t know?”
The blonde princess asked in a coquettish tone, but did not forget to tell Shade the more detailed investigation results:
“The woman I met at the masked ball with my father more than 20 years ago has been dead for fifteen years. She is not Mrs. Cumming. Although my brother is a little stupid, he still investigated and found out that the woman was indeed born. There was a boy.
No one knows the whereabouts of the boy after the woman died, but he has blond hair like us, and is said to be quite good-looking. He has lived in Vista Grove for at least fifteen years and his accent is local.
After I go back, my brother will continue to investigate. Although his arm is injured, it does not affect his actions. As for whether Colonel Dupont was a spy and the secret meeting of the Zionists in Delinhol, his brother could investigate or not go, but this would affect his father’s evaluation of him. ”
As long as James Cumming is not an illegitimate son of the Anjou royal family, Shade doesn’t want such a complicated family to get involved with the royal family again. But as a result, it is still unknown who James Cumming’s biological father is, and the royal illegitimate son in his twenties may still be here.
“If the illegitimate child is still alive, will he affect your inheritance rights? If it is just an illegitimate child, it should have no impact, right?”
Shad asked with interest, Margaret nodded slightly and her voice became very low:
“Of course it won’t have any impact, and even if it does, my eldest brother and I will ensure that he has no impact.”
When she saw Shade’s awed expression, she covered her mouth and said with a smile:
“What are you thinking? After all, it is the blood of the Anjou family. It is just some legal means. It is law and order that everyone recognizes that illegitimate children have no inheritance rights. This is related to the foundation of the nobility. We may even No need to do anything. Of course, this mainly depends on the father’s attitude.
He definitely didn’t just know about the existence of this child, but he hasn’t looked for it seriously for so many years. I’m actually very confused about this. ”
Shade doesn’t understand the royal family’s affairs, but as long as Margaret has an idea, she can ask Shade for help at any time, and Shade is willing to help at any time.
“Oh, and you asked me to help investigate the Golden Music Hall. I have already found the professors who were sent to work with the engineering team and record the original appearance of the temple.”
Margaret continued, laying her head on Shade’s chest very affectionately:
“They come from Tower Gate University in Willondale, which is ranked third in the country. However, when the Golden Concert Hall was renovated, it was too far away from now. The participants at that time are still alive and can There is only one person left to answer your question.”
“It’s okay if there’s only one left. Is he in Willendale? Have you seen him?”
“No, the other party settled in Vista City after retirement. Yes, it is in this city, I will tell you the address”
She whispered the address, then got up with a smile:
“Then since you guessed the question I just asked correctly, let me reward you.”
Her Royal Highness the Princess blinked and said, Shade smiled and touched her hair:
“I don’t want any reward. Just let me hold you and chat for a while before you leave. When we meet next time, the matter in Vista Woodland will probably be over.”
But Margaret didn’t want to just hold Shade. She jumped off the sofa and stepped on the carpet with her feet in black fabric. Then she took Shade’s hand and asked him to stand up:
“Don’t move, my knight.”
As he spoke, he bent down in front of Shade, who stood up straight, until he knelt on the soft carpet, and then looked up at him with a smile.
“Wait a minute Margaret!”
“Are you shy now? It’s not like you didn’t let me touch you before, and I also asked Miss Servit for advice when we were in Moon Bay.”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand.
“Wait a minute, why is Tifa with you”
The clothes covered the cat so that it could not look around, and the blushing princess began her own practice.
The whole process went smoothly, except that after she finished washing, sprayed on perfume and prepared to go downstairs with Shade, she quietly told Shade a secret:
“Actually, I wanted Miss Bell to inform Miss Winslet that she just came upstairs.”
“What are you going to do?”
“It’s not me, it was Teacher Sylvia who gave me the suggestion that it would be appropriate to let Miss Winslet know that your relationship with us is unusual. However, I feel like that is a bit too much.”
She held Shade’s arm affectionately:
“But I didn’t tell Teacher Sylvia that something had happened between you and Teacher Bernice. Don’t worry, I will wait for her to find out on her own.”
As he spoke, his eyes narrowed due to the smile on his face.
Margaret came in a hurry and left in a hurry. After having breakfast with everyone this morning, she headed to the train station surrounded by maids and guards. She will be attending a charity auction with her mother in Willondale this afternoon and no one will know she briefly visited Vista Grove this weekend.
Miss Winslet seemed a little silent at breakfast that day. She didn’t even notice that after Margaret saw the sausages on the plate while eating, she pursed her lips and suppressed a smile and frequently looked at Shade. When she said goodbye to Margaret, she just gave the Princess a box of souvenirs for Miss Sylvia to thank Margaret for the gifts she brought.
When Margaret left, Miss Bell and Miss Daniste were waiting for the witch to start in a tacit understanding, and the latter asked Shade as expected:
“I made you run away yesterday, so what does the Witch Emperor mean? Yesterday, the heavy snow covered two-thirds of the Vista Woodland. What is this power about?”
Shad glanced at the red-haired girl. Her expression was as usual, as if the conversation last evening had never happened. Shade then guessed that Miss Daniste probably didn’t say much, so he thought about it and replied:
“Miss Winslet, you know that I have some special time talents. In fact, in addition to using the twisted tree hole, I can also use the regular time key to perform real time travel in a sense, yes, really Time travel. Do you still remember the magic potion ‘warmth’ I gave you? It was an ancient formula brought back from the past.”
“You also said that you are not the chosen one of time!”
The witch mentioned this topic again, and Shade immediately shook his head:
“No, absolutely not, I can be sure of this. I didn’t expect what happened yesterday. I was injured on the edge of life and death. When I fell asleep on the boat, I somehow saw what I had seen during my past adventures. Witch, she took the initiative to help me, it was that simple.”
“Miss Owl” thought for a moment, then raised her head and confirmed:
“So, you can always see the Witch Emperor of the Fifth Era? Do you actually know many, many demigods and thirteenth-level witches? Do you know the secrets of the Fifth Era better than all of us?”
Even Miss Danister looked at Shade with interest. After all, Shade had never explained it seriously to her:
“Of course I don’t meet great witches every time. Most of the time I just meet ordinary witches. Once I even just met an ordinary man from the fifth era. As for the secret of the fifth era, no, no, I I don’t know enough, or I just saw some corners of history.
Those are some stories that no one knows. Some of them do not affect the course of history, and some of them directly affect the present. ”
Flora Winslet nodded slightly, she was very pleased with Shade’s honesty. As long as Shade is willing to say it, she actually doesn’t care what else Shade is hiding. Just like what she said, she enjoys this process of exploring the secret very much:
“So, can you tell me those stories from the past in the future? Tell me about the ancient witches.”
“Of course.”
Miss Owl immediately smiled, but then thought of another thing:
“Does Carina know about this?”
“Of course.”
“Then the information about the Fifth Era that she has been presenting in parliament since last year, as well as the long-lost skills, spells and documents of ancient witches”
“Yes, most of them are related to me. In fact, strictly speaking, Carina’s promotion from the eleventh ring to the twelveth ring is also related to me. A very powerful demigod witch saw that I could use the witch’s He wrote a study note and gave it to me.”
The corner of Flora Winslet’s mouth twitched, and she admitted that she was a little jealous, so she poked Shade lightly, but did not say that she also wanted to read the notes:
“You know, now I am no longer surprised by these things. I even suspect that you are the God Summoner.”
Young Miss Charlotte Bell blinked, and Daniste Gustave smiled.
Xia De stared at the dead witch, and the witch stared at him, actually already having the answer in his heart. But now she enjoyed the feeling of exploration and discovery, so she decided to continue to observe slowly.
She was very satisfied with this frank conversation, so she didn’t ask any more questions, but took the initiative to take Shade’s arm and pull him up:
“Go and take a look at the third oil painting I painted. I’ve been really inspired lately. I didn’t draw an owl in the painting this time.”
This sentence was said to the red-haired girl.
She did not add the owl to the third oil painting because she was the main character in that oil painting. Compared with the creativity of the first two oil paintings, the third oil painting is a very standard “heroic epic” oil painting.
