"Long time no see, Louise? Frances! "
With an excited expression, Anrietta stepped forward and hugged Louise tightly.
"Ahhh! Louise! Louise! I miss my Louise! "
A dense Lily aura filled the room.
After her initial surprise, Louise immediately took half a step back excitedly and cautiously, half kneeling on the ground.
"Your Highness! That won't do! You actually came to such a crude place. "
"You don't have to be so formal with me, Louise? Frances, aren't we friends? "
"I don't dare, Your Highness …"
On one side, Louise and Anrietta spared no effort to create a Lily aura. On the other side, Patrice stood in front of Eight-cloud Ink with a charming smile.
"Seems like you're doing well."
Glancing at the imprint on the back of Eight-cloud Ink's left hand, Patrice hinted.
"Aren't you afraid that your sister will be angry if she finds out?"
"Sister will definitely know. After all …"
— After all, she was a peeping Demon.
Some words were better left unsaid.
"However, I didn't really become that girl's familiar. Moreover, this mark has also brought me a lot of benefits."
"M Q?"
"Gandalfr. Can freely use all kinds of weapons."
Patrice widened her eyes, "That's a pretty good ability."
"On the other hand, Sister Muq, have you been with this princess recently?"
Eight-cloud Ink crossed her arms and leaned against the wall, looking at Anrietta who was reminiscing with Louise.
"Yes." Patrice nodded, "Apart from some misunderstandings in the beginning, this child is a very easy person to get along with. She was even willing to open the royal family's library to me. I'm very satisfied. "
— Cater to her liking?
Eight-cloud Ink narrowed her eyes.
If it was deliberate, Anrietta's motives were questionable.
But Patrice was also a smart person. Otherwise, she wouldn't have become a Mage of Seven Luminaries. Eight-cloud Ink wasn't too worried about her being used.
"Is that so? I originally thought that only you, Sister Mook, would be coming over tonight. I didn't expect her to know Louise. Speaking of which, Sister Muq, since you came with her, it seems that your relationship with her is very good. "
"I heard from Anrietta that she and Louise were childhood sweethearts. As for why I came here, there are two reasons. "
Patrice held up two fingers.
"Firstly, I heard that there is a book collection here that doesn't belong to the royal family. Secondly, I heard that there's a tamed monster evaluation meeting tomorrow. I thought I might be able to get some news about you here. "
Patrice smiled.
"However, I didn't expect the second point to go so smoothly. I actually met you here, Little Eight Clouds."
By this time, Louise and Angelietta had finished catching up with each other and the two girls came over together.
"You must be Mr. Familiar, right?"
"If it's possible, you can call me Mister Yakumo, Yakumo, or whatever. Please remove the word 'familiar'."
Eight-cloud Ink rolled its eyes.
"Even though we have a contract, I won't admit that I'm her familiar. Hey, Louise, stop messing around! I'm trying to protect you! "
Seeing that Eight-cloud Ink didn't give her any face in front of Angelietta, Louise was about to jump up but was pressed down by Eight-cloud Ink. She immediately grabbed the hand on her head and snorted: "What kind of protection is that?!"
"Do you believe that —"
Eight-cloud Ink suddenly leaned forward and its face was only a few centimeters away from Louise's face. Its breath made the girl blush.
"If I really become your familiar, my sister will run over and kill you."
Louise and Angelietta were stunned and still didn't believe it. Patrice nodded in agreement.
"That's right. This guy's sister is a very protective person."
"… Hmph!"
Louise resentfully turned her head and snorted.
Anrietta laughed. "I'm so envious of you, Louise. Francis, it's good to be free. "
"Eh?"
Louise turned her head and looked at Angelietta.
"What are you talking about? Aren't you a princess?"
"A princess born in a kingdom. I'm like a bird raised in a cage. Depending on the owner's mood, I'll go here and there. "
"Princess?"
It seemed that this princess didn't have a good life.
Eight-cloud Ink also knew a little about the situation in the Kingdom of Toristine. After the death of the previous king, the only members left of the royal family were the princess and her aunt.
The two women had to support the entire royal family and would definitely be coveted by all sides.
Sure enough, Angelietta looked at the two moons in the night sky and said: "I'm about to get married, I …"
Feeling the deep sadness in Angelietta's words, Louise's face fell.
However, she could only say: "Congratulations, Your Highness."
"A political marriage?"
Eight-cloud Ink suddenly asked.
Angelietta nodded speechlessly.
"The other party is the Emperor of Grumania."
"Grumania?" Louise, who hated this country, widened her eyes in surprise. "That barbaric country?"
"It can't be helped. Because I have to form an alliance with them, I have to do this."
Angelietta explained the political game.
Albion's nobles rebelled and the royal family was about to collapse.
The victorious rebels would attack Toristine. In order to deal with the upcoming war, Toristine had to find an ally.
"Is that so?"
Louise's entire person looked very depressed.
"Albion? Rebels? Are they powerful? "
Eight-cloud Ink suddenly asked.
Angelietta nodded. "Those rebelling nobles control most of the country's land. The royal family is only supported by Wales alone …"
Wales, the prince of Albion, Angelietta's lover.
Patrice stared at the sorrowful girl, pursed her lips, and suddenly said, "Anrietta, if the war in Albion ends with the royal family's victory, you won't have to marry the Emperor, right?"
"Impossible …"
Angelietta shook her head.
"The royal family of Albion can't be defeated."
"That's not necessarily true."
Patrice smiled.
Looking at Patrice, Eight-cloud Ink raised her brows and had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Patrice suddenly turned around and said: "Since you've taken care of me these days, Angelietta, leave this matter to me and Little Yakumo. The two of us are enough to deal with the rebels."
"Hey, Sister Yakumo, why are you pulling me into this?"
"Hmm?"
Patrice glanced at her from the corner of her eyes.
"You've read so many books in my library and now you're not willing to help?"
"Says who?"
Eight-cloud Ink snorted.
"The great Yakumo Family would never do such a thing!"
"Yakumo …"
Patrice smiled with satisfaction.
"Then, it's settled."
