Blood Of Platinum
Chapter 347. Midford residence bag. 1
Lucas, Rexa and Mark finally arrive at the residence of one of the hero families, the Midford Family. Their chariots stopped in front of the gate of the residence. They got off the horse-drawn carriage.
Rexa flew the mail she kept during the trip.
“You send it now?” ask Mark
“No problem. I'm sure my father won't open it right away. At least I didn't want him to have a heart attack when I heard this news from my mouth when I came home”
“You're right. The marquis was already very stressed with his first wife. I'm sure he's only a few months left”
Lucas warns Mark, “Mark, please don't joke so”
“Who is joking? I seriously. Is my face showing that I'm joking with you?”
The flat expression that Mark always shows does not represent someone's funny behavior. He was serious about his words.
Rexa could only smile in horror at the words of her friend. Now they see the Midford family residence.
Just like the other noble families, there were gatekeepers waiting there. About security, certainly not inferior to other noble families.
Mark stood in front of his two friends.
“I am advancing. I take care of first”
Lucas directly holds Mark's hand, “No. If you take care, the guard can get mentally ill. Better Rexa go ahead. We both just accompany, remember it's Mark”
“....” Mark is silent
Rexa walks in and talks to the guard. His face looked surprised at first, but they finally allowed the three of them to enter.
The distance between the gate to the main door is quite far. It really is a noble house like in the movies.
One of the guards led them in. He asked the three handsome young men from the Magic School Academy.
“Is this a sudden affair, Rexa-sama? Usually you come by horse carriage personal”
“Slightly sudden. It cannot be delayed, therefore I came here directly from academy”
From within the residence, there was a shadowy figure that saw the arrival of the three. It was the figure of a large-bodied woman and man who had been drinking tea with Earl Midford and someone called a master.
“There is coming. Barbarossa, does the Earl know all this?”
“I don't know, Evergreen. I think we should tell Earl and those pointed ears”
The girl named Evergreen saw a familiar face.
“It...Rexa van Houdsen!”
“What?”
The big man named Barbarossa saw it. “Next to it...maybe?!”
“What's up?”
There was a voice from the man who spoke yesterday with Galaktika and the others. He approached Barbarossa and Evergreen.
“You're looking at what?”
“Diaz-Gemini, look at that” lady named Evergreen looking into the window called out the name of the pointed-eared man. He called her Diaz-Gemini. “That's Rexa van Houdsen, the prospective Artifact user we're talking about”
Diaz-Gemini saw what was outside.
“It seems they have an important thing. I doubt they realize the thing we–...Mark Vermillion?!”
The calm face yet the surprised tone of speech made the look in Diaz-Gemini's eyes unable to hide his killing aura.
“That's the guy who brought our Artifact. Dare also he came to this place” murmured slowly with his hands clenched
“Earl may not know about their arrival” said Barbarossa
“We tell Earl now”
The three went towards the Earl's room.
**
Below, it seemed that the three teenagers were aware of something. Mark whispered to Lucas who was beside him.
“Lucas, we are watched”
‘It appears that the other members of Rebellenarmee are here. I doubt their number is just a little”
“I'm sure they're on every corner. It's just that we may not realize it due to the use of magic that can block everything as already-”
“It seems so. Should I cast my magic for this area?”
“I want you not to be as rash as you already are, Mark”
“Do not worry. I don't want to add to your work”
“But in fact there is an additional work that you did during the exam selection yesterday. I haven't even touched the file when it was on my desk this morning”
Mark was silent as if he did not want to hear the protest of his leader and Lucas could only sigh briefly.
Rexa looked around and asked the guard who was driving her.
“Is Earl having guests?”
“Ah, Earl on arrival old friend”
“How long have they stayed here?”
“They just arrived yesterday. Looks like business partner”
“So”
There was a whisper in the ears of the three teenagers from the academy.
“He lied. The guard covered everything up on the Earl's orders. Although he also doesn't know who Earl's guest is, but he lied to you”
That's Emily's voice at the academy.
Emily's magic, [Tearlaments Rein ‘O Heart] that can detect the lies of the interlocutor of the person who is fitted with this magic has already begun to work.
Right now, the Rexa that Emily had been fitted with the magic had previously spoken to the gatekeeper who was escorting them.
Only the three people could hear Emily's voice through magic [Tearlaments Rein ‘O Heart] and the little girl told the lie to the three.
“They are inside and chances are it's the person we're looking for. Rexa-sama should be careful” continued Emily
The three of them only looked at each other and did not respond so there was no suspicion.
When they reached the main entrance, they were greeted by the butler of the family.
“Welcome, Rexa-sama, Lucas-sama, Mark-sama”
**
In the Earl's room, Diaz-Gemini with Barbarossa and Evergreen told of the arrival of their little guest who arrived uninformed.
“Rexa-sama came?!” The Earl looked so happy to hear that. “I don't know why he came so soon but isn't that nice”
“The problem is there are two others who came and–...”
- Stuck…
The sound of knocking on the door was heard before Diaz-Gemini finished speaking.
“Please”
“Earl, below is already Rexa-together with Lucas-sama and Mark-together. They've been waiting in the waiting room”
Earl immediately turned serious when he heard his servant say the names of Lucas and Mark.
‘Why did Lucas-sama san Mark-sama also come with him? There must be something’ he thought in his heart
The Earl looked at the three comrades and asked them to accompany him.
“I think it's enough that I accompany you, Earl” advises Diaz-Gemini
“Why?”
“If Barbarossa and Evergreen come with us, I think it will be dangerous. Let's just say we hide our original strength so that not all things can be known”
“Diaz-Gemini is right, Earl” told a woman named Evergreen, “If we do something rash then our goal will fail. We can't take them lightly either since they are the captains of the Magic” Council Division
“In addition, there is the strongest user of Artifact there. Lying if they come unprepared. Rebellenarmee must not fail and our grand plans must not be destroyed” Barbarossa also added
Earl thought for a moment, “Alright. I think it would be better if me and Diaz-Gemini were to leave. You two wait here”
“We will also keep an eye on them with tight”
When he arrived at the waiting room, the Earl behaved very sweetly in front of his three guests.
“Welcome, Rexa-sama. Glad you visited me here”
The eyes of everyone who came showed a well-kept lie through a smile.
