Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Chapter 495: The afterglow of the setting sun

After handing the letter to Elihus, the messenger walked straight out of the academy.

After walking a distance out of the gate, his eyes suddenly turned cunningly and flashed into a building.

"Master! I'm back!" As soon as he entered the door, the messenger's body "banged" and a cloud of white smoke exploded. After a while, Catherine walked out of it.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Ethan saw Catherine coming back and gently touched her head.

Catherine looked up and smiled proudly: "Master, I'm really curious, how dare you conclude that the old man will definitely intercept the letter halfway?"

"I'm not sure!" Ethan shrugged: "But it doesn't matter!

If he doesn't intercept the letter, I have prepared other methods for him.

But since you succeeded, there is no need for other methods."

"Are you so sure that he will open the letter and then secretly go to Maro City alone?"

"This is inevitable!" Ethan smiled: "He either won't take it, or he will definitely read it if he takes it, and he will definitely go if he reads it.

The only pitiful one is probably the messenger.

If I guess correctly, he will probably be silenced."

"Why do you dare to say that? What will you do if he doesn't read the letter and doesn't go to Maro City?" Catherine looked up, looking unconvinced.

"He and I are both human! For humans, you can't go wrong if you think about the worst of any development."

"Haha!" Catherine laughed: "Master! You are so strange, scolding yourself.

And you humans are really bad!

During the time I have followed you, I have seen the evil of human society."

Ethan raised his eyebrows indifferently.

"If human society is not evil, wouldn't it be heaven? You just need to get used to it!"

...

On the other side, after receiving the letter and watching the messenger leave, Elihus slowly returned to the chair in the yard.

He threw the letter on the table, and then stared at the letter quietly without saying a word.

After hesitating for a while, he took the letter back and slowly opened it.

After flipping through it for a while, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.

"Morik."

With his light call, a man dressed as a butler came out of the house with a can of milk.

He first added half a cup of milk to Elisius, and then asked, "What does the master want?"

"Go and send Old John off. Be clean and tidy, and don't let him suffer."

"Yes!"

Morik responded, put down the milk can in his hand and went out.

Elisius finished his breakfast slowly, then changed his clothes, took a young and beautiful maid with him, and got on the carriage that had just been prepared.

The carriage slowly moved towards the Port of Bolivia on the edge of the imperial capital...

On the other side, the woman with a teardrop mole on the corner of her eye and her child were sent to a remote manor far away from the imperial capital by a carriage.

Although this place is remote, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers. There is a sapphire-like lake in the backyard of the manor, and the scenery is beautiful.

When the woman first arrived here, she was particularly uneasy, but after seeing the beautiful lake, she was immediately fascinated by the scenery here and relaxed a lot.

The servants of the manor thoughtfully arranged a large room facing the lake for her, and also arranged for the mother and child to wash and change clean clothes.

They were told to wait in a large room, and they were told not to leave the room, and to tell them if they had any requests.

In this way, the mother and son waited quietly in the room for a day and a night.

In the evening of the next day, a carriage with a golden lion logo drove into the manor.

The golden lion is the family emblem of the Sheffield family, and it is obvious that the visitor is a member of the Sheffield family.

When the carriage stopped, a young woman with a high ponytail, a pretty face and a tall figure got off the carriage.

The housekeeper reached out to support the woman and whispered, "Miss, everything is arranged!"

The woman nodded gently: "Have you checked the background?"

"I have checked it. A civilian from Nord City has no background!" The housekeeper replied carefully.

The woman nodded again: "Let's go!"

The housekeeper only took the woman to the room facing the lake, and then bent down and retreated.

The woman stood at the door, but did not push the door directly in, but suddenly frowned and stared at the door.

After a while, she suddenly stuck out her tongue and made a cute pose like a little panda.

The slight vibration in the air was like boiling water jumping on her tongue.

Emile felt the unusualness in the air and frowned even more tightly.

After hesitating for a while, she still pushed the door open.

When the door opened, the woman she knew was gone, and there was only a bearded man with a big waist and tiger back.

At this moment, the man was sitting by the window, with his feet on the windowsill, shaking the red wine glass in his hand while admiring the lake and mountains outside the window.

Even if he heard someone coming in, the man didn't raise his head, and still admired the beautiful scenery.

When the woman saw this scene, her eyes immediately turned cold.

"Who is your Excellency?"

Hearing the question, the man turned his head and smiled at the woman, revealing his neat and white teeth.

"Miss Emile, long time no see!"

Emile knew very well that he didn't know the person in front of him, and he also knew that the person in front of him was very dangerous because he couldn't resonate with him.

This is the first time in all these years that I have met someone I cannot resonate with.

"Who are you? You are so rude to come here uninvited, you know that?"

The man smiled: "No way! Miss Emile, have you forgotten me so quickly?

You personally came to my house and gave me an eagle, don't you remember it?"

"Eagle?" Emile suddenly thought of a young man.

"Ethan?"

"Oh! You finally remembered, that's great!" Ethan said with a fake smile.

After confirming that it was Ethan, Emile showed a playful smile.

"I never thought that you were such a handsome guy a few years ago, but now you have grown into this... um... majestic appearance!"

"Ah!" Ethan sighed, "Time is unforgiving! In fact, you are the same!

I remember that you were not like this the last time I saw you.

What? Can a person change his face after a few years?

How did you do it?

Why don't you teach me?"

When it comes to face-changing, Emile's face immediately sank, and he said coldly, "So, Sir Ethan came here uninvited just to discuss this with me?"

"No, no, no !” Ethan shook his finger: “I came here this time because I want to ask you for help!”

“Oh?” Hearing about help, Emile relaxed a little: “I wonder if I can help you?”

“Here’s the situation!

I…once promised a…um…friend, I promised her that I would send your head to her tombstone.

So…look, can you lend me your head for a while!

So I can fulfill my promise to her!”

As he said, Ethan drank the remaining red wine in his hand, then stood up with a smile on his face.

There was a strange light in his eyes, and when he stood up, the last afterglow of the sunset fell on his back, and a huge shadow enveloped Emile…
