first wizarding world war.

Chapter 170 No. 5 Central Avenue, Val d'Oise

Charlotte hasn't returned to 58 Champs-Elysees Avenue yet, so she can only use a Red Bear Warrior to replace Mrs. Nancy. However, this Red Bear Warrior's skills are average, so if he wants to do something romantic, he has to let this Red Bear Warrior who is temporarily acting as a coachman slow down the dark luxury.

Charlotte took out the pair of pistols, handed them to Anne, and said, "This is a trophy I got on the battlefield."

"They are not weapons. If you use one to shoot someone, they will not notice anything. But if you use another to shoot a wall or canvas, a lifelike image of someone will appear, which can interact simply, sing, dance, smile, or get angry."

"It can only create five magic portraits. If it exceeds this number, the first one will disappear, and it will always remain at five."

"I thought that as my first trophy on the battlefield, I should give it to my favorite girl."

Although the famous painting was a collection of Baron Fila, theoretically, it had been snatched away by Lady Nansela. Charlotte got it back from Lady Nansela. Even if the original owner wanted it back, perhaps it could be "redeemed" according to the laws of the empire.

What's more, Baron Fila no longer has any legitimate descendants, only an illegitimate daughter, Anastasia, who has no legal right of inheritance, so Charlotte could feel free and bold when giving gifts.

Anne was surprised and delighted. She was surprised, of course, that Charlotte finally gave her a gift. Secondly, the pair of pistols made her think, "This is the most appropriate gift."

"I was thinking, what excuse can I have..."

Charlotte didn't know what Anne was thinking, and the two of them had afternoon tea peacefully. In the evening, Charlotte sent Anne back to Gorgias University, watched Anne change to her own carriage and left, and then he also set off back to 58 Champs-Elysees.

Charlotte's return made Mrs. Nancy and Mrs. Wu Meizijiang very happy. The three clever kittens kept circling around their owner, trying to attract his attention.

Charlotte picked up a clever kitten and stroked its fluffy fur. She felt relaxed and said, "Please prepare some food for me in the evening. I have things to do tomorrow and will go to bed early. You don't need to prepare tea and coffee."

Mrs. Wu Meizijiang prepared a set meal for Charlotte. After Charlotte ate, she went back to her room to practice for a while, then slept comfortably all night while holding her three clever kittens.

When he woke up the next morning, he rubbed his eyes and was considering whether to go find Annie again or to find High Priest Augsradin when he heard a noise downstairs.

Charlotte got up and went downstairs. He saw two huge paintings delivered. The paintings were wrapped in linen, very tightly. He couldn't help asking, "I didn't order any paintings. Was it delivered to the wrong person?"

Before the delivery worker could answer, Aunt Karen had already followed him into 58 Champs-Elysees and said with a smile, "It was not the wrong delivery. Anne asked me to order five of the largest frames. These are two of them."

"I suggest that Mr. Mecklen hang one in the study on the first floor and one in the bedroom on the third floor."

Charlotte had just woken up and her mind was still a little unclear, so she asked casually, "Why?"

Sister Karen chuckled and said, "What do you think? There are three more. One was sent to your estate outside the city, and the other two were sent to your mansion in the Val d'Oise district."

Charlotte gradually regained consciousness and remembered that he had indeed received two more residences as a reward from the Queen. Thinking of the number of picture frames, he asked in shock, "Are they all portraits of Anne?"

Aunt Karen didn't answer, but asked, "Where do you think it should be hung?"

Charlotte thought to herself, "Need I say this?" He had the delivery worker hang one portrait in the large study and the other on the third floor to be hung in the bedroom's lounge area.

Aunt Karen did not stay and left after delivering the portrait.

The old lady had a slight smile on her face the whole time, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Charlotte was quite meaningful.

After Aunt Karen left, Charlotte tore off the linen wrapped around the portrait in the study. The frame of this portrait was the largest size and was used to draw real-life and other adult portraits.

When the linen fell off, the painting was indeed a lifelike portrait of Anne in gorgeous attire. Her pretty face was filled with happiness. When it saw the light, the portrait made an inviting gesture to Charlotte, as if asking her to dance with it.

Charlotte also stretched out her hand, holding hands with Anne in the painting from a distance, and indeed danced half a dance with the portrait in the painting.

He still remembered that he had something to do today, so he had not gone to appreciate the painting upstairs. He called Mrs. Nancy and hurried out.

Yesterday he rode in the Dark Luxury to show off in front of Anne, but the result of showing off was that Anne didn't even notice that he had changed his carriage, so when going out today, Charlotte obediently changed back to the original second-hand old carriage.

The main reason was that he had to go out to do some business, and if people saw him riding in an extraordinary carriage, they would definitely suspect that he had made a fortune in the war.

This kind of thing would definitely bring some trouble, especially when he and the great priest Ogusradin were planning to go on a diplomatic mission to the Ingrima Empire. It would be bad if someone got jealous and caused trouble.

When Charlotte's status becomes higher and she enjoys a more luxurious life, she won't have these problems.

Charlotte decided that after returning from the Inglima Empire, she would set about opening a few businesses and begin a life of accumulating wealth.

Although he made a fortune in Silver Pigeon Castle, this kind of thing would not happen again and was not a stable way to make money.

Charlotte first went to the Temple of the Lord of Light and inquired about the whereabouts of Grand Priest Ogusradin. She then went to the Savings Union to withdraw some cash before going to the Foreign Minister's residence.

The position of Foreign Minister is already a very high official position in the Empire, usually held by the hereditary Count d’Artagnan, whose official residence is at No. 5, Central Avenue, Val d’Oise!
By the way, the emperor's palace is at No. 1 Central Street.

The General Office of the Central Government is not on Central Avenue.

The entire Central Street is the official residence of the empire, and it is also where the high-ranking officials and nobles who truly have real power in the empire stay for a long time.

This street is patrolled by the Royal Knights and ordinary people are not allowed to enter.

Charlotte was able to step into the street only with a document from the Military Affairs Knights Department of the Central Government Office. He went straight to the Foreign Minister's residence with trepidation, but was stopped by the guards outside the gate. When he explained his request to see Grand Priest Augsradin, he was taken into a room by the guards and told to wait there.

This room is full of officials of all levels waiting to be received. They are all people of considerable status, but because of their lower status, they cannot enter this room and can only walk on the street outside the Foreign Minister's residence, enjoying the breeze and slowly enjoying the gap in status in this world.
