Lolo tied the dagger to the outside of her right leg. She changed into a black evening dress and tried to walk a few steps. Nothing unusual could be seen from the outside.
Tonight's date was a romantic encounter in the eyes of outsiders, but only the parties involved knew the dangers involved.
This was the first time Lolo and the temple confronted each other head-on. The latter was a behemoth that covered the entire human world. Even in the South Church, which had a relatively weak influence, it still had tens of millions of believers. No one knew what kind of trap they would set tonight.
However, no matter what kind of danger lay ahead, it was not Luo Luo's style to resign herself to death. After some hesitation, the girl gave up on the staff and chose a dagger as a defensive weapon. Mograine was a Grade 5 Paladin. If they really fought in a semi-enclosed space like the Golden Rose, he would not give her the chance to chant a spell. Rather than that, it was better to choose a melee weapon to buy more time.
In addition, Lolo also carried two defensive magic devices. One of them was an earring that she bought from the black market in a bad alley the day before yesterday. It could release a grade 3 auxiliary spell, Darkness. The other was the feather on her hat. This feather was called "Fearless". It was a precious collection in the Magic Association of Gudilesi. Your Honor, the future Supreme Magus, had borrowed it through D 'Idarion just in case.
However, because it was difficult to explain the origin of this thing, Rob did not tell the existence of "Fearless" to Lolo.
The dusk in Gudilesi City was no different from any other day. The Marian Lighthouse was dyed rosy by the setting sun. Outside the dock, merchant ships were busy returning to the port. The laborers were unloading the goods with bare arms, and the fishermen were selling fresh seafood that had just been caught.
Lolo did not know how many of these people were from the Divine Hall in disguise. At least at this moment, she did not want to think about it anymore. If nothing unexpected happened, she would leave this beautiful city tonight. She had lived here for almost a year and made many friends. She did not know when she had gradually fallen in love with this city and the faint fishy smell in the sea breeze. Compared to the cold Northern Region, the spring and summer here were longer, as if it would never end.
However, with the arrival of the Temple, her peaceful life was shattered. After getting clues from Granny Teresa, she had to return to the north to continue investigating the truth behind her mother's murder.
Lolo was lost in thought as she stared at the street outside the window until Rob's voice came from behind. "The carriage is already downstairs."
The girl grunted softly, and her gaze became resolute once again.
"Will you be okay with the meeting tonight alone?" Luo Bu asked. The Temple of Light had made such a big scene in the name of a marriage alliance. Although they could force Luo Luo to show up, doing so was also disadvantageous to them. When everyone's attention was focused on the meeting tonight, even the Temple of Light could not openly attack Luo Luo at this time. Therefore, at least the girl should be safe until the end of the meeting.
The future Supreme Magus Your Honor did not simply want to escape with Lolo. He also planned to use this time to do something, so it was better for the two to act separately tonight.
The girl nodded. "I'm fine. If I can't even deal with Mograine, how can I avenge my parents?"
"Don't underestimate that guy. There's something strange about him." Rob didn't know much about the Ferdinand Family. The library of the Magic Association contained information about most of the nobles on the Dawn Continent, including those names that had disappeared in history. However, there were different levels of information. Among them, the Free City-State of the South was the headquarters of the mages and had the most complete and abundant information. As a powerful force that rose in the recent 200 to 300 years, the Lionheart Empire was the most welcoming toward mages. However, due to its short history, it was second. The Holy Alliance was completely controlled by the Church and had the longest history among the three forces. Although they were not hostile toward mages, as non-believers, mages were not as popular in the Holy Alliance as other places, so it was relatively difficult to collect information.
But even so, as an important direct descendant of the Ferdinand Family, Mograine should have more than just a few words of introduction. Besides, there was one thing that Luo Bu had always been puzzled about. Apart from Mograine, there were no other outstanding young men in this generation of the Ferdinand Family. If he was really as outstanding as the rumors said, even if he was only half as outstanding, he should have been designated as the heir a long time ago. However, there were no similar rumors in the Ferdinand Family until this marriage. What was the reason that made the Ferdinand Family reluctant to appoint Mograine as the next family head?
Fortunately, under the watchful eyes of the public, it would be difficult for Mograine to use any tricks he had.
Lolo arrived outside the Golden Rose at 7: 49 pm, but Mograine, who had been in Gudilesi City all this time, had already arrived at the restaurant one step ahead of her.
To everyone's surprise, the latter came on foot.
From a small church on the outskirts of the city, he walked step by step to the Golden Rose, but not long after Mograine went out, he was recognized because of his handsome face.
The infatuated girls on the roadside screamed at him, and he smiled at them. A noble lady passing by wanted to give him a ride in her carriage, but he shook his head and declined. He just walked on the street at dusk, neither fast nor slow. The sun fell on his shoulders and painted the side of his face golden.
From afar, he looked as if he had walked out from the light.
Wherever he went, the eyes of the crowd followed. He walked into the Golden Rose. Although the people who dined here tonight were all rich or noble in Gudilesi City, when these people saw him, they could not help but feel a sense of inferiority. Just being in the same room with him made them feel a deep sense of inferiority.
Women could not resist his charm, and men could not even have the courage to be jealous. At this moment, everyone could not help but wonder what kind of person in this world was worthy of being his wife.
With such doubts in mind, Lolo's carriage also stopped outside the restaurant.
The girl got off the carriage. This was the first time that the family master of the Bretton Family appeared in front of outsiders.
