Chapter 243 Kael: Riding on the dragon's back. Flandre: I want a child (10K)
After confirming the feasibility of the Sky-splitting Knight's future attire, the Silver Guard Army didn't linger and immediately proposed to leave.
Before leaving, Kael's gaze suddenly swept towards Imre, who looked indifferent. He didn't know what Imre had done earlier, but now he was leisurely chewing on a dogtail grass.
Seeing Kael's gaze float over, Imre, feeling a bit embarrassed, plucked the dogtail grass from his mouth, waved his hand to bid farewell to Kael.
He was quite a peculiar young man.
This was Kael's assessment of Imre.
After the Silver Guard Army left through the Teleportation Array, Kael had just returned to the Lord Mansion when he soon received a message from the Shadow Garden. It stated, "Lady Franca has once again teleported to Titan City and is now staying at the Titan Hotel."
Kael was intrigued for a moment.
After pondering for a bit, he realized that Franca probably had other matters to discuss with him.
After all, even if Franca wasn't exceptionally familiar with the Titan City's situation, she knew that Kael's base was well-guarded.
If she wanted to intentionally hide her presence, it was unlikely that the Shadow Garden could track her.
So, this probably meant that this alluring witch was using this method to tell him she had returned.
After thinking for a moment, Kael didn't let the Shadow Garden continue to monitor Franca. Instead, he got up and left the Lord Mansion directly.
It was mealtime, and Kael didn't find the alluring witch in the Titan Hotel's restaurant. While pondering, a neatly dressed lobby manager approached Kael and handed him a note.
Kael opened the note and saw a string of mysterious numbers.
"Sir, Lady Franca has the restaurant deliver the meal to her room and asked us to hand over this note to you. I looked at it, and it's a room number."
The well-shaped Black Cat Clan lobby manager was also a member of the Shadow Garden.
At places like the Titan Hotel, which could gather a lot of information, many maids from the Shadow Garden were in control, aiming to collect enough intelligence swiftly.
This maid hadn't expected that despite hiding effectively, she was still discovered by Franca and asked to relay the message.
"Got it, continue with your duties."
Kael didn't hesitate, standing and heading directly to the location on the note.
The door was closed, but with senses enhanced by the Eternal Spell, Kael could distinctly hear the movements inside the room.
He knocked, but the door didn't open.
Kael could only hear the noise inside growing a bit louder, indicating someone was indeed inside.
Evidently, for some reason, Franca inside hadn't opened the door yet.
Kael slightly sniffed the air. He also had routine spells enchanted for identifying scents, not to "identify a beauty by smell", but merely to discern scents, which might have a miraculous effect in special combat environments.
Unexpectedly, this spell exposed whatever Franca was doing inside the room.
Franca couldn't hide, even if it was a cold meal. The inherent aroma of the food would linger.
Just from the scent Kael caught, it included at least eleven types of breads and pastries.
Considering the Dragon Vein Mage's situation... hmm, it could be compared to the condition of a certain blonde Saber with short hair in the "FATE" universe.
People with Dragon Blood often encounter the problem of hunger. Without enough money, being too hungry to function daily is a common issue.
Dragon Vein Mages avoid being penniless.
That's about the situation.
Without sufficient nutritional intake, whether it's the weak White Dragon Blood or the more comprehensively capable Golden Dragon Blood, hunger could reduce you to lizard blood.
Kael was very patient, pursuing beauty. If he lacked patience and forced his way in, Franca most likely would only reject him slightly.
But to expect much of a "today's good time and beautiful scenery" ambiance was impossible.
After about half a minute, Kael heard a nearly inaudible "wait a moment" from inside.
Another half-minute passed, and when there was no sound inside, Franca finally appeared, the door quietly opening to reveal a half-embarrassed face.
"I've never seen you come so quickly before,"
Franca whispered.
Kael understood what the alluring witch meant.
The last time, when Franca was in the carriage surrounded by millions of elite soldiers, she had straightforwardly stated that next time they met, Kael should give her something to look forward to.
According to usual behavior, shouldn't one hurriedly indulge in a renewal of old sentiments that very night?
But what happened?
Someone paid no attention and promptly went to handle other affairs, leaving it behind.
If it weren't for the later event of her team supporting him, there wouldn't have been a night of romance in Resource Point Town.
Unexpectedly, this time came so quickly.
What could Kael say, Kael didn't want to speak now.
Honestly, to say Kael had no thoughts of those past events would clearly be impossible.
