"Sorry, Sister Osvia, I really want to accept your invitation, but I must get the permission of my father to leave the province of Karras."

Shaking her head regretfully, Fiona politely declined the invitation.

"That's a pity, but if you want to go out to play someday in the future, I can help you mention it to His Excellency the Duke."

The fourth princess nodded and stopped talking about this topic.

"Speaking of which, have you heard of it? It's the construction of the network headband implemented by the Federal Parliament. Recently, it seems that there has been a small spread in the empire."

Seeing that the scene was a little cold, Catherine Alfred, the seventh daughter of the Alfred family with blonde hair and purple eyes, spoke up and took the topic in a new direction.

"I also tried it before, and there are indeed a lot of interesting lace news and local legends on it, as well as some special games that allow you to simulate the life of a high-level professional. It seems that it is so popular among the commoners, isn't it? There is no reason."

"The empire has been strictly prohibiting the circulation of this kind of thing. Those headbands you mentioned probably spread through some special channels that are not visible.

Also, that thing is actually very dangerous, and it is best not to touch it lightly. "

Hearing her words, Osvia shook her head, her face turned serious.

"The arrival of the Lord of Dreams that has caused a sensation in the entire Yar Continent before, and the birth of the contact group, if we look into the reasons, the construction of the network headband has played an indispensable and key role in it.

In that incident, many professionals who wore headbands fell into a deep sleep, but never woke up again.

Although they have now removed the ability of the network headband's consciousness to directly connect to the network, according to the research of scholars at the Royal Academy, these headbands are still absorbing the escaped spiritual power of professionals and injecting it into the construction network. , to keep the network running.

Moreover, behind the construction of the network, there are many high-level prophets of the Federation. Under their control, it is difficult to ensure that a disaster similar to the previous Lord of Dreams will not be caused again. "

"Yes... Is that so? Thank you, Your Highness, for the notification."

Catherine's smile was a little stiff. She originally prepared several advanced construction headbands to share with you at the tea party. Now it seems that the original plan is going to be soaked in soup.

 …

When the 'girls' held a tea party, Anves found the head maid Anne who was waiting on the side of the garden. She is directing the methodical work of numerous maids and is always ready to remedy any problems that may arise.

"Miss Anne, is there any unusual personnel change or situation in the City Lord's Mansion recently?"

"Unusual personnel changes and circumstances?"

Annie glanced at him with some doubts. As the adjutant of the city lord, do you need to ask me about this information?

"I got some news that there may be a powerful presence to attack Lord Fiona in the near future, and I need to make some defensive preparations in advance.

But it's possible to miss some key elements by going only through my own sources, so I'm ready to hear from you. "

Regarding Annie's question, Anvis explained half-truths.

"A powerful presence attacked?!"

Hearing Anvis' words, Annie was shocked.

"Well, according to what I know, there has been no personnel changes in the castle recently, and no special events have occurred. Everything is normal."

After thinking for a moment, Annie finally shook her head.

"And, with the guardian of the ninth-order limit, we don't need to worry about the safety of the lady, Mr. Boli?"

... ninth-order, after all, is not a panacea.

Seeing Annie's disapproval, Anvis sighed in his heart, but he also knew that this was not a level she could reach.

"It's nothing, don't worry, I'm just asking."

Turning away under Annie's suspicious eyes, Anvis decided to temporarily make some arrangements around Fiona, waiting for the enemy to take action.

As a top-level Child of Destiny, Fiona's own strength is actually quite strong. As long as some opportunities can be created, the power of Destiny has a high probability to help her turn the corner.

When the attention was focused on this side, the invisible premonition became stronger, which also made Anvis sure that he was not looking in the wrong direction.

Although according to the Duke's words, Fiona, who is a magical experimental creature, is not related to him by blood.

However, due to the reference to his special dual bloodline structure during the preparation, there is actually a special fate connection between him and Fiona that is different from blood relatives.

Even if the web of destiny is temporarily obscured by the power of the outer gods, and it cannot predict related things, it cannot completely obscure the hazy premonition brought about by this connection.

 …

Two days later, to the surprise of Anvis, Duke Carlot still did not return, but Pomona appeared alone with injuries.

Anvis originally thought that the two of them should not be able to come back for a while, but he didn't expect one of them to come back.

Anyway, this is a good thing, the ninth-order combat power is one more, and you can understand what happened at that time.

According to Pomona, who returned to the family, he was conspicuously plotted by the enemy at that time and was trapped in the flame of divine power. In order to save him, Duke Carlot fought with the sacrifice of the Ability God.

As a result, when the battle was at its most intense, he was suddenly teleported by the divine flame and landed directly in a virgin forest near the west coast of the Federation.

When he rushed back to the vicinity of the battlefield, Carlot had disappeared, and only traces of their battle remained at the scene, and the tracing spell did not work.

People in the family did not have any doubts about Pomona's words, because it was true that the Duke's location could not be located at present.

Taking into account safety issues, the family guardian decided to personally go to the battlefield where Carlot disappeared last, and let Pomona come back to recuperate, while temporarily taking care of Fiona for him for a period of time.

No one disputes this development.

Although Anvis always felt that something was wrong, he couldn't tell.

That night, out of a strange sense of irritability, Anvis did not continue to deal with his daily affairs, but walked aimlessly to the terrace at the top of the City Lord's Mansion.

The night sky in summer is very clear, the silver and purple double moon volleys into the sky, and the bright two-color moonlight is sprinkled, which makes the spiritual power seem to be a little active.

Under the terrace, the Silver Gull City in the night shows its wonderful side. The light from the windows of countless houses is like a reflection of the galaxy in the sky, quiet and bright.

"Um?"

However, it seems that Anvis is not the only one who appreciates it. On the terrace, there is already a dark shadow standing here.

"I don't know who you are?"

Approaching the past with some doubts, although Pomona's figure has been recognized, but now as an ordinary fifth-order adjutant 'Laiwen Boley', Anvis still pretended to ask questions clearly.

"...a bug that doesn't know whether to live or die."

However, beyond Anvis' expectations, Pomona's reaction was to slap him when he saw him.

Under the action of the power of rules, Anvis' clone turned into ice crystal dust on the spot!
