Li Xini was almost laughing madly. This was exactly the plot he wanted to see after returning to the royal capital.
And the most important thing is that the family really gave him a lot of help this time.
Because last night, he used the power of Baime-chan to divine the clues of the Corpse-Eating Ritualist, and the last scene he saw above the gray fog was the entire royal capital shrouded in darkness.
In other words, the clue is within the royal capital, and a more specific scope cannot be determined.
Licinius was originally very depressed, but he did not expect a sudden turn of events early in the morning.
He actually saw the inverted cross symbol on the Xavier family crest.
This made him, who was originally not interested in the marriage, suddenly excited.
Well, it’s definitely not because of having a young and beautiful fiancée.
Of course, the most important thing is that Archduke Bern actually left him a letter.
In this letter, Archduke Bern changed his previous arrogant and cold attitude, and instead expressed high admiration for his talents and promised conditions that seemed very tempting.
Especially the last condition: if Licinius is willing to marry into the Xavier family, then in addition to this marriage, Novia and Elle can also be given to him to play with.
Father’s love is like a mountain!
"Is this a clear statement? Has he already known that I discovered that he and I have no blood relationship? Well, that's not necessarily the case. In fact, in the Brentanian Empire, there are cases of chaotic ethical and moral relationships, especially among the corrupt aristocracy."
Licinius swaggered through the streets and alleys, facing the morning light and sighed: "The conditions are very tempting."
Dimon followed him and asked respectfully, "Boss, what should we do?"
Licinius said sternly, "Of course, we will strictly follow our father's orders! Amber, bring all the brothers out to me. From today on, Holy Trinity Seminary will be closed!"
Since Irena can't get out, then no one else can get out either.
"Understood, Boss."
Damon and Amber nodded, picked up the communication mirror and started contacting the headquarters.
Licinius's actions would undoubtedly arouse anger within the academy again, but he didn't care at all. They were just a group of students and could not pose any threat to him in essence.
His ultimate goal is to target the group of traitors hiding in the academy.
In this way, he could get closer to the group of old aristocrats.
At present, the specific combat power of the old nobles is still unclear. Their biggest feature is mystery. No one knows how big their power is, nor where this group of people is hiding.
Even with Baime-chan's power of divination, nothing was gained because the matrix was not large enough.
This means that in addition to the original Valerius family, the old nobility also has many powerful forces.
This is an alliance organization.
Licinius was not in a hurry at all. Before he could summon the Corpse-Eating Ritualists, he still needed to do a lot of preparation. During this period of time, he didn't mind playing slowly with that group of people and boiling the frog in warm water.
The invitation letter sent to him by the Xavier family was inviting him to visit their home tonight.
Share dinner, discuss marriage, meet your fiancée, and develop a relationship.
Licinius was very much looking forward to what secrets were hidden behind this mysterious family.
"Noren..."
Licinius suddenly said.
"Well?"
Noren bit a lollipop, tilted her head and opened her beautiful eyes wide.
Li Xini patted her shoulder and said earnestly, "We have been in the academy for such a long time. It is not good to always skip classes. It is too disrespectful to the old dean. Go to class honestly today, make up your credits, and take the position of the head of the close combat department as soon as possible. By the way, help Ciel secretly."
He said: "It's actually not easy for him to support the adventure group alone."
Norn said, "Master, what about you?"
"Well, I'm going to investigate the singularity in the academy. There's something very wrong with one of the warehouses."
Licinius looked serious and spoke in a serious tone.
Well, go play the witch and the dragon.

"Well, be gentle."
"That's not how you unbutton this button. Don't tear it like last time."
"As long as you like it, it's fine, because I wore it specially for you to see."
"Wait, wait a minute, Caroline wants to talk to me about something, maybe it's something about the presidium? Can't you pinch it gently, otherwise I can't help but make strange noises."
"Okay, take your hands out quickly, ah..."
"Caroline? Well, I, I'm not feeling well, so I might have to be late for the meeting. Ah! No, nothing, I just accidentally fell.
Ah! I'm really fine, I just almost fell down again by accident. Yeah, wait for me for an hour, I'll take care of it... Yeah, I've taken care of it."
Irena bit her red lips, her quiet and elegant face flushed. She lay on the soft big bed, her long white hair scattered like snow lotus, her moist eyes full of coquettishness and resentment.
She casually threw away the communication mirror and said faintly, "I was almost discovered."
"She's just a female classmate, so what does it matter?"
Licinius pinched her chin and kissed her tender red lips gently.
Irena snorted: "If she finds out, the news will spread. Although I don't mind the collapse of my image, what if Norn finds out?"
Licinius fell into deep thought. This was indeed a problem.
“How does it feel?”
Irena smiled and asked with narrowed eyes.
Li Xini thought for a moment and said, "It still feels the same as before, but it's a lot bigger than before."
Irena turned over, held her chin with both hands, and tilted her head: "Because I am also growing up. In fact, today, I didn't want to be with you, but when I saw you contacted me, I was afraid that you would be lonely."
Li Xini raised his eyebrows: "Why can't it be astringent?"
Irena said intentionally or unintentionally: "After all, you already have a fiancée."
"Uh..." Li Xini was a little embarrassed: "You know?"
Irena snorted. That damn woman jumped right in her face, how could she not know
And she is a woman who is not inferior to her in terms of appearance and figure.
Irena is not afraid of the sky falling.
However, I am afraid that my fiancée will fall from the sky.
Because once the marriage is concluded, she will be your legitimate wife.
Everyone else became a mistress!
"Is this the marriage arranged by your family?"
Irena's eyes became sharp, and she spoke word by word: "You, agree?"
"What did you say? I seem to hear the evil god's mumbling, I can't understand it at all!"
As an old scumbag, Li Xini certainly couldn't answer this kind of question directly, especially at such a special time, so he chose to press on her directly and lift up her skirt again with his right hand.
"Do you want to continue? Don't let the fun get to the point where you can't help it anymore."
Irena blushed and said, "I didn't prepare any tissues."
Just then, a crisp sound of footsteps was heard outside the warehouse.
That's the sound of high heels hitting the ground!
Irena's pretty face changed slightly and she snapped her fingers.
I saw a dressing mirror in the basement covered with mist, reflecting the scene outside the warehouse.
She was a silver-haired beauty wearing a black dress. She stamped her feet as if in anger, then sat under the shade of a tree at the door of the warehouse with a rather gloomy expression.
She took out a sandwich from her bag and started eating it slowly.
Seems to be adjusting the mood.
"Novia?"
Licinius was surprised. "Why is this woman here? Is she here to see you?"
"No, how could I possibly tell her that this place existed?"
Irena was also quite surprised. She said faintly, "The question now is, how long will she stay here? How are we going to get out later?"
Chapter 177 Who are you talking to
Novia actually just happened to come to this warehouse to relax.
Because it is remote and quiet, it is a good place for people to be alone.
Just this morning, she received a letter from her father.
The letter stated that the Valerius family had recently encountered an unprecedented crisis. Not only had they lost one-fifth of their property, but even their manors had been attacked, causing countless casualties.
Therefore, the Valerius family must find a reliable ally as soon as possible.
That's the Xavier Family.
That mysterious family that was said to be backed by a certain sorcerer organization, although their power in the royal capital was not top-notch, but according to some rumors, their combat power was at least ranked in the top two among all the nobles!
Of course, what made her feel most uncomfortable was her father’s last words.
"Novia, you must make this marriage happen at all costs. If Licinius is unwilling, you must give yourself to him to let him enter the Xavier family!"
Still that arrogant and stern tone.
Novia sat under the shade of a tree and took a bite of her sandwich expressionlessly. Her beautiful black and white eyes were full of disappointment and confusion. She originally thought that with her talent and performance, she would become the pride of the family.
However, in my father's eyes, everything is insignificant in the face of interests.
All her efforts were of no avail.
In the face of the family's interests, she was like a gift that could be given away at will.
As for her feelings, it doesn't matter at all.
"No, it's too dangerous to let Licinius go rashly before we know the details of Xavier's family. But the invitation will be sent tonight. How can I stop him? I owe him this, and I have to consider his safety. And if he really marries into Norn's family, what will happen to Norn?"
Novia chewed her sandwich with a complicated look in her eyes: "No, will that guy take this opportunity to sleep with me? Father must have offered him this condition and given me to him as a gift."
At this moment, her delicate body tensed up and her long legs under her skirt were tightly pressed together.
Even the jade feet with red nail polish and high heels were curled up.
In a trance, she recalled her childhood.
In fact, many years ago, as the eldest sister, she still liked her younger brother very much.
Because he is quiet and sensible, and looks very much like me.
Novia also felt that she was the older sister and the eldest princess in the family, and she should take good care of her younger brother.
However, at that time, Licinius only had eyes for one person.
Noren…
At that time, he was still the most distinguished young master of the Valerius family.
His father loved him very much, and the elders in the family also trained him as the heir.
Although the mother was unhappy, she could only swallow her anger and greet him with a smile.
All the resources in the family were given to him.
When Licinius was only five years old, he had already shown amazing talent in physical fitness, fighting skills, magical knowledge, even alchemy, as well as business and politics.
As the elder sister, Novia was crushed in all aspects.
What broke her defense the most was one time when the boy, relying on his status in the family, entrusted the family servants to buy a piece of strawberry cheesecake from Agate City overnight.
Novia loves strawberry cheesecake the most, and I thought it was a gift for her.
