Natasha didn't wear a gorgeous and noble court dress today, but a simple white knight suit, her slender legs were fully exposed, she should have just finished practicing swordsmanship.
She originally had a playful smile, intending to talk to Lucien about a gentleman's topic, but when she sensed Lucien's seriousness, she immediately suppressed her smile and asked very seriously, "What's the matter?"
This is completely different from her usual lazy and joking look, like a beast ready to pounce and kill its prey at any time.
Lucien didn't answer directly, but looked at Camille and other corners of the piano room.
Natasha was not a stupid person, on the contrary she was very smart, and she understood Lucien's plan just by seeing Lucien's performance.
"If Aunt Camille couldn't be trusted, I'd be dead long ago, and the others..."
While speaking, Camille stood up, his blue eyes glowed brightly, and his whole body also revealed the same deep blue, as if he was a statue made of sea water.
Then Camille's body actually turned into blue sea water, flowing on the floor of the piano room.
There was more and more sea water, and the water level was getting higher and higher, and soon it flooded from Lucien's ankles to his chest.
Seeing Lucien's puzzled eyes, Natasha nodded solemnly, signaling him to rest assured.
The sea water continued to rise, completely submerging the entire piano room, and the blue waves rippled slightly, as if they had come to the bottom of the sea.
But the seawater didn't flow out of the piano room, and Lucien's breathing was normal, and he could enjoy the same air with ease.
However, surrounded by the sea water transformed by Camille, Lucien felt that the "moonlight" blood in his body involuntarily shone with a layer of silvery frost on the surface of his skin, while Natasha on the opposite side had no Variety.
Seeing this, Natasha raised her right eyebrow habitually: "Knight power?"
Then she sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, Lucien, I didn't know that Aunt Camille would intentionally press and examine your body."
"This is Ms. Camille's duty. I understand very well. You don't need to apologize, Your Highness." Since Lucien was going to tell Natasha part of the matter, he was ready to be inspected. Therefore, on Tuesday, except for To test the "Silver Horn" cult's grasp of the situation around the princess is also waiting for the stimulation of the blood power, otherwise it is very likely that the person who is checked out now is the identity of a magic apprentice. A more indirect and less effective method.
No matter how much the "kidnappers" emphasize that they cannot "call the police" and show off their power and control ability, there is no doubt that the best choice is to tell Natasha about the matter. Only their power can deal with the cult's top leaders, otherwise Based on Lucien's own strength alone, in front of the high-level cult that is likely to have the rank of a cardinal, no matter how intelligent he is, he is doomed to die and fail.
The only problem is to choose a reasonable time so that their actions do not threaten the safety of the hostages and themselves.
Natasha looked at the layer of silver frost light, supported her right elbow with her left hand, touched her smooth and beautiful but slightly rigid chin with her right thumb and index finger, and said doubtfully: "Moonlight blood is only weaker than a formal knight... Lu Sean, can you tell me what's going on now?"
Lucien said the words he had thought a long time ago: "As you can see, my knight power does not come from myself, but from others. Since the night of the concert, I have been invited by Your Highness the Princess to become Since your music advisor, I have been involved in a conspiracy against you."
The corners of Natasha's mouth curled up slightly: "So they exchanged the power of false knights for your promise?" The Violet family also has a similar method.
"It's not like that. They kidnapped my benefactor and uncle Joel's family and threatened me with them, asking me to tell them what I heard around you and your whereabouts, and they paid me in advance to activate the blood power Remuneration." Lucien carefully but calmly said nine true and one false words.
"I asked the intelligence department..." Natasha moved her mouth, then raised her head slightly, looking at the sparkling light around her: "Aunt Camille, anyone who comes to my side to do things should have been investigated."
"Yes, Your Royal Highness. We have obtained information from the Church Tribunal. Although Mr. Evans has been in contact with witches, he has no trace of learning magic. This is the affirmation made by the Tribunal. I believe in their professional ability, and the intelligence department I also secretly investigated Mr. Evans' friendship situation, and there is no problem." Camille stopped checking Lucien's body long ago, and the voice seemed to come from all directions, with the sound of the tide rushing.
When Lucien heard Camille's words, he realized that he could successfully become Natasha's music consultant by no means as simple and easy as it seemed on the surface, but it was normal, Natasha was the future grand duchess.
Natasha nodded and asked directly: "What about the kidnapped Mr. Joel's family?"
"According to the report given by the intelligence department, Mr. Joel was invited by a Lord Dick from Lombard County. Their evaluation was 'very normal'." There was a rare bit of anger in Camille's voice.
Lucien interjected: "Not only that, but on Tuesday, I deliberately showed nervousness and uneasiness in front of your highness, the princess, so that you could notice it, but they found out about it at night. I think the people around you, your highness, Very problematic."
Natasha's expression was serious, but she quickly shook her head and laughed again: "Lucien, it turns out that your nervousness and anxiety at that time were faked, and you really underestimated your calmness and control over yourself."
Then she walked a few steps in the piano room flooded by the sea with her hands behind her back: "No more than ten people know about the matter on Tuesday, except for Aunt Camille, but because it is not important, they will probably treat it as a joke Tell the people around you casually, but you have to investigate carefully, the intelligence department is no longer trustworthy, Aunt Camille, you go directly to the church to ask the two cardinals Amerton and Gossett for assistance."
Cardinal Sard has lived a semi-reclusive life for a long time, and the affairs of the church in the Principality of Viorit are mainly in charge of by two cardinals.
Then Natasha asked Lucien about the details of his contact with the conspirators in the past few days, and Lucien even asked Phyllis to buy the moonlight rose, which was going to be used to stimulate the blood of Knight John. Most of the things were told, of course, except for the temptation to the cultists involving magical power, and the fact that they already knew that the other party was the "Silver Horn" organization.
"Lucien, I think you should be accompanied by a kidnapper for a long time." Natasha can easily judge this from Lucien's narration, but she doesn't know which side it belongs to, " Aunt Camille, find a chance to arrest the kidnapper and torture him."
Lucien hurriedly said: "Your Highness, don't be so anxious. If you dare to plan a conspiracy against you, I think the people behind it should be very strong. If you catch the kidnappers next to me first, it will be easy to alert them. You need Slowly and secretly investigate, starting from the intelligence department, starting from the people contacted by the kidnappers around me, to find the black hands behind them, and then solve them at once, so as to completely disintegrate the conspiracy and make it clear that they are by your side, where they are Everyone lurking in the Principality."
If the princess is allowed to act directly and decisively, although the conspiracy can be disintegrated, the safety of Joel's family will become a problem, and if they cannot completely attack the Silver Horn, they will suffer heavy losses and it will be difficult to recover in a short time. Trouble, since you want to do it, then do it absolutely!
Natasha frowned: "Catch people directly, torture them with divine magic, and kill them before they react. There should be a lot of success. Lucien, you are too unmanly."
"Your Highness, I think Mr. Evans said a lot. Even the intelligence agencies are involved in this matter. We need to treat it with caution. I believe His Majesty the Grand Duke will agree." Camille's voice came from the depths of the sea.
Natasha curled her lips: "I don't like these things that go around the most. If they dare to assassinate directly, I think they are men. Well, everything is up to you, Aunt Camille, this matter I won't tell anyone about it."
"The kidnappers will give me a kind of magic ball every once in a while. They contain scenes of Uncle Joel's family. If I find clues from it, how should I tell you?" Lucien was a little terrified to see what happened To develop in the direction I wanted, I had slightly miscalculated Natasha's character before.
Camille's voice sounded: "I will give you a few drops of my blood, they contain the power of 'water element', unless the other party has a level 7 powerhouse by your side, you won't be able to discover its specialness, you just need to find If you have a clue, you can put a drop of blood into the water, and you can talk to me temporarily."
She didn't mention the distance limit, because she also judged that the kidnapper was near Alto.
Following her words, three small blue gemstones condensed in the sparkling deep blue water, and they looked no different from ordinary sapphires.
After agreeing on the secret language for the conversation, seeing Lucien hide the three gems, Natasha became lazy again, and said with a little curiosity: "Lucien, why did you choose to inform me? Uncle's family Don't life, false knight's power, and possible treasure move your heart?"
"I am hesitant, but I believe that those who can do such a thing will never really release Uncle Joel's family. Only by praying for your help, Your Royal Highness, can they be rescued intact." Lucien seriously Answer, "And it's my life's creed to never compromise with the enemy."
Natasha's deep purple eyes lit up slightly: "Never compromise with the enemy? Hehe, never give up in the face of difficulties? Lucien, this is really your character. No wonder you can write a symphony of fate. I appreciate your kind Character, I take back what I just said, you are a real man."
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your praise." Lucien bowed.
Natasha chuckled: "So, man Lucien, don't you really need me to teach you how to court girls? I think your personality is the same as mine, so you should be very attractive to girls."
"...I don't think this is the time to joke around." Lucien could only reply seriously, "Also, please don't tell the church about my bloodline stimulation, Your Highness, after all, it was obtained through such a channel."
Natasha nodded and said: "Lucien, I can understand your worry. How about it, since you are not a dark bloodline, after completely destroying the conspiracy, I will tell the church that I have given you the power to stimulate the bloodline in order to reward your whistleblower. medicine."
Then she spread her hands with a smirk: "Relax, Lucien, only by relaxing can you face the enemy better."
The sea water receded and condensed into Camille again, and the piano room was restored to its original state. Natasha and Lucien sat in front of the piano, discussing music without any abnormality.
At noon, the stationery couldn't wait to ask Lucien about what he had seen and heard in Lataxia Palace, as well as his communication with Natasha, which made Lucien feel a little relieved. I still can't find out what I have betrayed.
At the same time, Lucien excused that John would be back on Saturday morning, and asked the cultists to send another "spectacle ball" on Friday night.
The request was reasonable and the cultist did not refuse.
※※※
The next day was Friday. After Lucien finished studying music, he got into the carriage sent by Phyllis directly at the door of Victor's house, and together with Rhine and Lott, they went to Phyllis's manor, who didn't come for leave in the afternoon.
Naturally, under the special order of the cultists, Lucien took the magic letter with him.
