The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

Compared with the legendary phantom beasts related to the god of fantasy, ordinary phantom beasts such as Pegasus and Shadow Sparrow seem to lack cards.

According to the Great Picture Book, Eudemons often have a unique ability.

Among them, Tianma's unique ability is to control the power of elements.And the unique ability of Shadow Sparrow is that it can be attached to the shadow of other Eudemons, and then use the same power as it, but it will deteriorate a lot.

However, in the Eudemons Illustrated Book, it doesn't say that Shadow Sparrow can penetrate objects.

So, these two uninvited strange black birds are really shadow sparrows.Does it mean that they used to be hidden in the shadow of a kind of phantom beast with the ability to penetrate walls?

Eudemons with this ability...

Well, quite a lot.

While Riber was thinking, Sebastian and Taya were still arguing.

Although, the Eudemons Illustrated Book can be called a "picture" book, because most of the Eudemons are equipped with corresponding pictures.However, almost all of these drawings are rubbings from frescoes.I don't know if it's because it's too difficult to carve murals, or that "Eye of History" and Riber are also soul painters.In short, those paintings are quite stream-of-consciousness at best.

So, Sebastian grasped this point, emphasizing that the strange black bird was completely different from the picture.And Taya, based on the text description, said that the strange black bird was a shadow sparrow.

"At the end of the day, what's the point of the result? Is it important what kind of Eudemons they are?"

Interrupting the two of them again, Riber frowned and asked.

If it is said that this strange black bird has dangerous options other than "Nightingale" and "Shadow Sparrow", the dispute between the two is necessary enough.

But obviously, both Nightingale and Shadow Sparrow are very harmless Eudemons.

"It's Mr. Sebastian, who intends to post the young master's photo to the 'Ascart King Daily'!"

Taya complained decisively.

"..."

This time, Riber's face was really gloomy, and he stared at the former housekeeper who still didn't let him go his way with a look of "you don't understand, even if you don't want to be a gardener".

"Master! Isn't this a wonderful opportunity to promote the unnamed restaurant that is about to open!"

"The problem is not here. The problem is that if the article in the newspaper is written with the core of 'Nightingale' coming. As a result, the real body of Shadow Sparrow is recognized. At that time, both the young master and the family will be ashamed!"

Taya said angrily.

"I'm actually more curious about when you guys took the photos... Forget it. The unnamed restaurant really needs publicity. Although I have made some arrangements, the bigger the publicity, the better. But, let's forget about the newspaper."

Originally, Riber subconsciously felt that Sebas was stabbing him in the back.However, he immediately realized that he was no longer in Greenwater City.Therefore, there is no reason to keep a low profile until the sense of existence is thin.

However, it is a kind of stubbornness.Riber still believes that the so-called newspapers should carry more valuable information.

What's more, if the extremely romantic article with him and "Nightingale" as the core appears on the headlines of the newspaper, it will feel like too much publicity.Without occupying the front page headlines, the dignified earl couldn't afford to lose that person.

Therefore, he wanted to change the way of publicity.

"If newspapers don't work, how about a photo exhibition? Master."

"Photo exhibition?"

Riber repeated, looking at the photo of the top card that Sebastian took out.

After discovering that every photo has an excellent look and feel, Riber couldn't help feeling that his handsome self is so photogenic all the time.

"The inventor of the camera, Earl Draken, holds a one-month photo exhibition in December every year until the New Year. Such activities have been held for many years, so the scale is also very large."

Listening to Sebastian's answer, Riber was a little surprised.

Because, in his opinion, a new thing like a camera is quite incompatible with the old and old aristocracy.Therefore, he did not expect that the inventor of the camera would be the same earl as him.

Also, there is a photo exhibition or something every year.

It seems that different from the word "old", this former capital city may not be inferior to new cities in its ability to accept new things.

"Just take part in the photo exhibition."

"Then, what kind of name should be used in the photo when participating?"

"certainly..."

Riber pondered for a moment,

"It's The Nightingale."

With a slightly sly tone, Riber named his photo.

The "nightingales" he was referring to were not the two on his shoulders in the photo, but the name of the qin he was playing.

Even if the black bird is actually a shadow sparrow, the person who misunderstands it is the person who looks at the photo.

What's more, sometimes with some controversy, in order to better attract the attention of the public.

So, amidst Taya's shouts of "Master!", who looked more and more like Sebastian, it was decided that Riber's photos will be included in the exhibition.

...

...

When the photos were confirmed to be sent to the exhibition, Riber also felt that the time to open the store was almost here.

only...

In short, take one step at a time.

Riber's series of publicity plans have long been fully outlined in his mind.

So he called Lysa.

This strange thief, relying on him every day for eating, drinking, and prosthetic limbs, is almost time to come in handy.

"Eh? Really, really want to do this..."

"Ah."

"Okay, okay."

Lysa looked at Liber in front of her with a somewhat strange gaze, thinking that this mysterious count was really becoming more and more difficult to see through.

And just when Lysa was about to turn around and leave.

Suddenly, there seemed to be an extremely shrill scream from the first floor of the mansion.

Volume 170: Chapter [-], opening soon

Walking down the stairs following the screams from downstairs, Riber frowned after looking at the hall from above the stairs.

Because... nothing seems to happen?

He only saw an old man, slumped on the ground, pointing at the head maid, Fa'an, and screaming non-stop.

Feelings, is this guy so frightened by Fa'an's impactful face?

However, it is true.

The old royal capital is not that Greenwater city. In broad daylight, what kind of vicious incidents can happen in the mansion where the earl lives?

Looking at the old man sitting slumped on the ground, with the strong light of the supporting role on his body, Riber thought it was his "brilliant" physique and the nameless restaurant that attracted the strange and important role of the original work.

But after observing carefully for a while, Riber suddenly felt that the old man looked familiar.

This person turned out to be the "Master" Grofell who had met once in Greenwater City.

...

...

For Riber, who is not good at remembering other people's names, the reason why he can remember Grofell is that he feels that this name is not clear, and it has an indescribable feeling of a boss.

What's more, among the luminous people met in Greenwater City, only Grofell's luminous reason, he still can't figure it out.

The reason is that Grofell, who was once caught in the heavy prison of the Greenwater Knights, can see the light of day again like now.After repeated investigations, the Knights decided that he was indeed just a small character who lied about the paintings of the "artist" as his own and sold them.

And because, more or less, he provided information to the investigation work of the serial killer organization.In addition, the rich businessmen who bought some "fake" paintings were unwilling to sue Grofell due to considerations such as face.Therefore, he was exempted from subsequent imprisonment.

However, this also means that he is really just an ordinary person who was accidentally involved in the incident.And how does such an ordinary person shine in the sad witch line of the original work?

If Riber's guess is correct, in the original plot, Greenwater City should be completely destroyed on the day when the witch came.Just like the consequences of a witch incident on this continent, a city and its surrounding areas have disappeared from the map.

In such a situation, in addition to Chris and Evanna who have the aura of the protagonist, other important supporting roles such as Lysa, Lin, etc. can survive, and there is a big question mark.That Grofel, how could he escape from that disaster?

Therefore, whether it is before or after the witch's arrival, Grofell should not have a part in the scene.

Could it be because of parallel worlds or something?

Just like "The Earl of Campret", he can die in two completely different lines in the original plot.In the parallel world, might there be a Greenwater city with extremely good law and order?

Sitting on a high seat, looking down at Groffir who was almost prostrate on the ground, Riber took a sip of tea calmly.

He really hopes that he has a pair of piercing eyes so that he can really see through this "ordinary" painter.

"So, why are you here?"

Riber looked at Grofell, feeling more and more puzzled the more he looked.

In the RPG of the kingly way, people who are suspicious to such a degree as "painter", "professor", "teacher", "doctor", etc., will probably transform into a big boss-level character as soon as they take off their glasses.

But... Will GALGAME so meaninglessly portray a character who looks like a bad old man from any angle?

What's more, as a big boss, Grofell is too cowardly or too good at acting.

The humbleness that has continued from Greenwater City to the Old King's City, and the screams that were simply frightened by Fa'an and so on.

Grofell is in such a state of unbearable, when the time comes to reverse, can his personality be brought back?

"My lord! I, I really don't want to bother you, it's really... really..."

Grofeel, who was kneeling on the ground, began to tell about what happened to him in the past half a month with tears in his eyes.

At the beginning, although he was released by the Knights.However, his reputation in Greenwater City was completely ruined.Doomed, no one will ask him to paint or buy his paintings.

Therefore, thinking that Grofell, who couldn't just sit and eat, planned to start a new job in another place and become a famous painting master again.

And at this time, when others were treating Grofeil coldly, an "old friend" of his for many years made a move like sending charcoal in a timely manner.

He suggested that Grofell could go to the old royal capital Ascart City to develop.Moreover, he also said that he had mastered a booth of a famous painting exhibition in the old royal capital.

But...that booth was hard-earned.Therefore, Grofell needs to show something.

At the beginning, Grofell was not stupid, he didn't fully accept the words of this old friend.Instead, he invited him to go to the old capital with him.

But his old friend readily agreed, and the two came to Ascart City together.

After arriving in Ascart City, it didn't matter if Groffir didn't inquire, but when he inquired, he was startled.

It turned out that the scale of the famous art exhibition that his old friend told him was far beyond his imagination.

First of all, the exhibition has a history of nearly two hundred years.The organizer of the art exhibition is also well-known in the art world, the "Apocalypse Church" that enshrines the "God of Beauty".

Although the paintings exhibited in the exhibition will be used for charity auctions.However, the painters who occupy a booth in the exhibition, without exception, have become art masters that are widely sought after by the entire Xinmei Kingdom.

Then, his emotions were agitated, as if seeing Groffir who had a better life in front of him...he was fooled.

"..."

"My lord, not only was I cheated of the property I had accumulated all my life, I also... paid it back!"

Groffir, who was indeed aged, didn't catch his breath, and almost fell over.

Fortunately, this person, who was finally shining as an important supporting role, was tenacious enough to recover quickly.

He went on to tell his outrageous experience.

The cleverness of Grofell's old friend's deception is that most of the things he told are true.

He does have a booth at the Apocalypse exhibition.However, this booth was also cheated by him from a nobleman.

Then, he did sell the booth.However, it was not only sold to Grofell, but also to seven other great painters from the old capital.

It's okay for Grofell to be cheated, and what's more, when many painters appeared in front of the problem booth on the eve of the exhibition, they still didn't realize that they were cheated.Moreover, he hastily announced to everyone that he and that friend are so close and have such a life-threatening friendship, so the other party will never lie to him, and that booth belongs to him.

As a result, Grofell was arrested as an accomplice of the fraudster.

Although, the guards of the royal capital probably guessed what kind of situation it was.However, now that the fraudster has already escaped, those huge losses need to be covered by someone after all.In addition, Grofell is just a newcomer to the old capital, a little artist with no reputation at all.

Hence, Grofell became a prisoner logically.

Seeing that everything is coming to a conclusion.In desperation, Grofell thought of the highest-status person he had ever met in his life.That is Riber.

He sternly claimed that he was employed by the Campret family, and he was a painter who specialized in painting for the contemporary Earl of Campret, and he was Riber's most loyal servant.

And from the castle standing in the city of Ascart, it is not difficult to see what kind of status the Campret family will have in the old king.
