Chapter 194.
Chapter 194 Plotting
Knowing that the little boy mage in front of him was able to manipulate the brain worm so as to control Duke Ferdinand, Barnett was overjoyed.
He suddenly remembered something, nervously asked: “Andy little friend ah, not my suspicion is too heavy, but this thing has to be cautious. Is there any other way you can prove the connection between you and Master Barnett?”
“Didn’t I cast a spell just now?”
Andy asked in a small voice, obviously he didn’t dare to vocalize his true identity either.
“Is …… this enough then?”
He rolled up his own sleeve, revealing a strange pattern on his arm.
“Enough! Enough!”
Earl Kent had seen this pattern on Barnett’s bald head, and the other man had clearly told him that it was the symbol of the Secret Society.
However, looking at this little boy’s dopey and adorable appearance, he didn’t even confirm his identity, so how did the Secret Society feel relieved to let him come alone, and the person who escorted him left without dropping it.
This heart is also too big, right? Or is this boy just a dispensable minor character.
“Alright, little friend Andy, besides manipulating brain worms and releasing flames, do you have any other skills?”
Andy cocked his cute little head and thought for a while.
“I can also tell if someone is lying or not, and if there is any mischief in someone’s heart.”
So powerful? Earl Kent’s heart flinched, wouldn’t he be translucent in front of this kid?
Unexpectedly, Andy added: “But it is in the case that the other party is not prepared, if the other party can slightly control their own thoughts, I can’t do anything about it.”
Earl Kent secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, this level was nothing to such an old fart like him.
But this kid was also too honest, right, he even took the initiative to reveal his own bottom card as well as his weaknesses.
After all, the other party was a member of the Secret Law Society, and had great use for himself, so it was better to be polite.
Maltzkent put on a kind look and patted Andy’s shoulder.
“Little friend has worked hard all the way here, let me give you a good reception.”
After saying that, he loudly summoned the servant and instructed him to have the kitchen make a sumptuous lunch.
Andy’s eyes glistened at the sound of good food, he looked like he was indeed childish, even though he was a real mage.
Earl Kent greeted him and walked with him towards the dining room, the hall was too empty for a child.
As he left, he instructed his servants to send his son Jaaius and nephew Emerson to accompany him. These two already knew about the Secret Society and his and Barnett’s plans, and both had expressed their support.
They came to the dining room, while waiting for the lunch to be ready, the Earl of Kent wanted to ask Andy about the Secret Society of the mage organization, originally thought that the other party is a child, it is easy to pry open the mouth, but unexpectedly the other party actually kept his mouth shut, once he said to the key point on the screech, let him no matter how much he side-stepped it is useless.
He is an outsider to them after all, Kent Earl heart extremely disappointed, disappointed at the same time more and more eager to get the power of magic, get the recognition of the mages.
Mr. Barnett’s plan, I must complete it perfectly, Count Kent thought in his heart.
“So, how did Barnett-sensei ask you to help me?”
The Earl muttered up in his mind, now that Barnett was out of the picture, there was a big question as to who would be the master and who would be the subordinate. If he were to ask himself to bow down to a small, milky child, he would never be able to do it, even if the other party was a mage.
“He had instructed me to follow your instructions if he was not around when the time came – without jeopardizing the interests of the Secret Society, Master Barnett said that you knew the details of his plans in the Northwest.”
Haha! Earl Kent’s heart rejoiced, it looks like the teacher still thinks quite highly of me.
“Well said, I’m merely carrying out the instructions left by my teacher, haha.”
While the two were talking, the servants came to the dining room and placed a bunch of rich and tempting food on the table.
Jaaius and Emerson also came to the dining room, and the other couldn’t help but be surprised at the sight of a child sitting here.
“Come, come, I’ll introduce you.”
Earl Kent stood up and put his hand on Andy’s shoulder, “This is little friend Andy who came from ‘over there’, and came over to help us in the name of Master Barnett.”
‘Over there’ naturally referred to the Mystic Law Society, Earl Kent used this word to refer to this organization when he exchanged with his two juniors.
So this kid was a mage? This is too outrageous, isn’t it? “Little friend Andy, this is my son Jia Ace and distant nephew Emerson, please rest assured that these two are absolutely reliable.”
Andy stood up and bowed to them, while Jaaius and Emerson awkwardly bowed to him as well and returned a stiff smile.
The group took their seats and began to enjoy the food.
The servants brought two glasses of bright red “drink” and placed them in front of the Earl of Kent.
Seeing these two cups of bright red liquid, Andy’s face revealed an uneasy look.
“Oh, little friend Andy, frightened, right?”
Earl Kent saw the change of expression on Andy’s face and said with some amusement.
“This is filled with merely …… uh, let me think …… well, today it is pig’s blood. This is the secret technique of health maintenance that Master Barnett has imparted to me, and it is thanks to it that I feel that I have recently begun to return to my old age.”
At this moment, Earl Kent was indeed radiant and energized.
However the uneasy look on Andy’s face did not diminish at all as he continued to stare at the two cups.
Just when the atmosphere of the restaurant was a bit awkward, the little mage spoke.
“Earl, since there’s nothing wrong with your body right now, you should quickly stop drinking this kind of stuff.”
“Why should I stop?”
“In short, it is very bad, very bad. It’s a …… rather parochial thing that may have a good effect on one’s body for a short period of time, but for a long period of time …… I’ve actually only read about it in a book, but I’d still advise you to be more cautious and better, and not to continue drinking it if you can. ”
Let the little mage so say, Kent Earl heart suddenly hairy, this has been end up a cup also put down.
“Haha, thank you little Andy for the reminder. Eat, all eat.”
He greeted the crowd as they ate, and everyone picked up their knives and forks and began to eat.
“In a few more days, I’ll take Little Andy to pay a visit to Lord Duke.”
The Earl burst in with a sentence that startled both Jaaius and Emerson.
“Is it about to begin?”
“Yes, it can’t be delayed any longer, and although Master Barnett can’t spare the time right now, with little Andy’s help, I don’t think it’ll be much of a problem.”
“Father, do you need me to go with you?”
“No, you and Emerson just keep an eye on the house.”
……
Lunch lasted nearly half an hour, the young mage looked like he had never eaten such a sumptuous meal, and kept his attention on the food, not even paying much attention to what the Count was saying in the middle of the table, which made the Count even more at ease with him.
But the earl is strange, in the past days the food delicacies today in his own mouth eat up as chewing wax, what flavor is not, let him feel depressed.
“You guys personally send little friend Andy to the guest room to take a rest.”
“Yes, father (uncle).”
“Thanks for the hospitality, Lord Earl.”
The three of them got up and left the restaurant, leaving Earl Kent sitting alone.
After sitting motionless for a while, the Earl finally stood up like he had made up his mind and walked outside.
However, he had just reached the door when he suddenly and frantically rushed back to the dining table.
On the table still lay those two glasses full of red liquid, the earl picked up one in one hand and began to pour it into his own mouth furiously ……
