With the sound of heavy footsteps, Lucien, who was wearing silver and white armor, walked into Schwann Castle.
A servant took the helmet and saber that Lucien took off, and another charming maid bowed to Lucien and presented a clean wet towel.
Lucien wiped his face with a towel and asked, "Where's Madam?"
The maid took the wet towel and replied softly, "The Earl is changing clothes on the second floor."
Lucien nodded, went up the spiral staircase to the second floor, pushed open a wooden door, and saw that Count Schultz had already changed into a pure black dress.
Her hair was coiled in the most popular style of a lady's bun, a string of crystal clear and round pearl necklaces hung on her creamy neck, and her delicate and three-dimensional facial features were painted with a light appearance, making her look graceful, luxurious and glamorous.
"You're back." Earl Schultz smiled at his husband, stepped forward to help him take off his armor, and asked, "What did you gain today?"
Lucien chuckled, shrugged, and said, "If there's anything I can gain, I'll accompany that Viscount Angelet around the Swan Castle. However, I found that the Viscount didn't seem to be perfunctory, but serious. Really looking for Bishop John."
Earl Schulz smiled lightly, and said disapprovingly, "He's looking for a needle in a haystack like this, what else can he find?"
Lucien frowned, and thought about it: "I think he may have discovered something, otherwise he wouldn't be able to stay so focused, as if he was really looking for clues."
Earl Schultz's hand paused, and his face became a little dignified: "Could it be that he found something?"
Lucien shook his head: "I don't know. However, since he refuses to let Vera come to Swan City to meet you, he must have some doubts."
Earl Schultz frowned beautifully, and said in doubt: "I can't figure out what went wrong, which made him suspicious."
While removing the armor on his body, Lucien said his guess: "Could he already know the identity of Vera's real biological mother?"
"Probably not." Earl Schultz shook his head and said, "Since that person is sure that Marquis Garcia will not stand up to refute me, it means that the identity of Vera's real biological mother is extremely sensitive, and Viscount Angelet is unlikely to know this secret .”
Lucien couldn't help asking curiously: "That person didn't reveal any information about Vera's real biological mother?"
"No. He only said that Vera's real biological mother didn't dare to recognize Vera at all."
Lucien rubbed his chin, as if he was thinking about who Vera's real biological mother might be.
Seeing this, Count Schultz reminded: "Okay, don't guess. If you are worried that Viscount Angelet has discovered something, you can try him out at the dinner later."
Only then did Lucien withdraw his thoughts, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go wash and change into clean clothes first."
Boom boom boom.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Earl Schultz said loudly, and then saw the butler push the door open.
He first saluted and greeted the count and his wife, and then reported: "My lord, Viscount Angelet would like to visit Swan Castle."
"Visit? I think he wants to search!" Lucien's face turned cold, and he said in a bad tone.
Earl Schultz's eyes were also fixed, but she quickly returned to normal. She told the butler, "Please ask Viscount Angelet to wait, and I will accompany him to visit Swan Castle."
"Yes!" The housekeeper replied, and closed the door again.
There was a dangerous light in Lucien's eyes, and he said coldly, "Did he really find something?"
Count Schultz patted his husband's strong chest and comforted him: "If he really finds something, he should pretend he doesn't know anything, then quietly leave Schwanstein Castle and go to Winter City to rescue soldiers.
Instead of alarming us like it is now. "
Lucien nodded, feeling that what his wife said made sense, he restrained his aura.
"Then what are you going to do?"
"Since he wants to see it, I'll take a look with him." Earl Schultz said indifferently.
Lucien understood his wife's meaning, nodded and said, "Okay, you go and accompany him for a stroll, and I'll let that guy move his nest first."
"Yes." Earl Schultz nodded, and then said in a warning tone, "In front of that person, you'd better be more respectful."
"Don't you really think he is the Duke of St. Hilde?" Lucien said with a sneer, "Except for his appearance, his demeanor, tone of voice, and some habits are completely similar to the real Duke of St. Hilde. no the same!
Although I don't know what his appearance is, he will definitely not fool anyone who is really familiar with the Duke of St. Hilde. "
Earl Schulz said with deep meaning: "He has the face of a duke and the strength of a duke. Why can't he be the Duke of St. Hilde?"
"Strength?" The expression on Lucien's face became even more disdainful, "Based on his current state, I can chop off his head within an hourglass."
"Lucien, never underestimate the power of a paladin!" Earl Schultz straightened his face, "Even if he is still seriously injured, if you really dare to provoke him, the end will never be good."
Seeing that Lucien still seemed unconvinced, Earl Schultz sharpened his eyes and said, "You promised me, Lucien, don't break your promise!"
"Of course I remember my promise, but I hope you don't forget your promise." Lucien responded coldly.
Earl Schulz looked into his husband's eyes seriously, nodded and said, "Of course I won't forget."
"That's good. However, I still want to remind you, don't be fooled by the other party's title of 'Duchess', it's just a blank check."
Earl Schulz nodded solemnly and said, "Of course I know what I'm doing, and I won't completely trust that 'Duke of St. Hilde' who doesn't know the truth."
"That's good." Lucien put on the half-taken armor again, and said, "Go and deal with Viscount Angelet first, and I will arrange for the Duke of St. Hilde."
Count Schultz nodded, turned and walked out.
…
Swan Castle is a Gothic-style building with a large number of spire designs. It is tall and thin but still thick. The outer wall is whitewashed, which complements the green Swan Lake. Unforgettable at first sight.
The castle is more than 30 meters high, with seven floors and more than 200 rooms. It will take half a day to visit each one.
Under the leadership of Earl Schultz, Colin just glanced at it.
"Viscount Angelet, this is all about the main castle, and there are two secondary castles behind, as well as warehouses, stables, farms, etc. Do you want to continue to visit?"
Ke Lin stood in the main entrance hall of Swan Castle, looking around, as if admiring the surrounding decorations and furnishings.
Seeing Earl Schultz pointing his finger in the direction of the gate, he didn't step forward immediately, but stomped his feet on the spot and asked with a smile:
"My lord, is there no basement under the main castle?"
"Of course." At this time, Lucien walked in. He should have just finished taking a shower, changed into a black dress, and smiled at Colin, "The wine cellar and storage room are below, do you want to see the Viscount? "
Colin nodded and said:
"certainly!"
