Do you all know the future?

Chapter 45 Mermaid
After boarding the boat to the island and standing at the bow with the sea breeze blowing on her face, Diane wanted to try out the famous scene from the movie with the maid, but unfortunately there was a light bulb next to her.

The light bulb was still a little hot, and her eyes drifted to Diane from time to time. After Diane responded, she looked away again.

Like playing a game, Bridget was playing guerrilla warfare with him. If Diane didn't respond, she would look at him, and if she responded, she would hide.

"Chief Bridget, what are you looking at?"

Diane spoke up to break the game pattern. It felt weird, like someone was watching her.

"I just want to see what's so special about you that both Madam Eve and Dean Isabella would like you!"

Bridget felt that she liked him more and more, but she couldn't say it so clearly that she liked him. The big sister who was straightforward and cheerful also had her own shyness.

"It's simple. Madam Eve was upset by the prophecy, and Teacher Isabella was upset by her husband. What does it have to do with me?"

Diane gave the reason he had thought of a long time ago. After all, he was a foreigner, and no matter how exotic he was, he couldn't be loved by everyone, and he didn't have the blessing of the goddess of beauty.

"Is it just that simple? Perhaps Madam Eve has seen something important."

Bridget thought of Eve's loving expression at the dinner party. Although they were charlatans, the fact that believers in the God of Prophecy could occupy a certain position in various countries did have something to offer.

"See, I married her daughter. After all, look at Miss Lotina..."

Diane thought of Lotina and an awkward smile appeared on her complicated face.

"Isn't Miss Lotina pretty?"

Bridget came and saw Diane's indescribable expression and chuckled. Her love rival didn't seem to be that powerful.

"A lover is only good-looking; a wife is a helper and a partner. I am not used to Miss Lottina's fanatical beliefs."

Although Diane is the Son of God, he has God under his control. Naturally, he has no reverence for God and cannot communicate with charlatans.

"What do you think of me being your partner?"

Straight ball attack, Bridget's character is so bold and unrestrained, like a deep-sea shark, biting its prey and tearing it apart.

"We're partners now, and we've already left Tudor territory. Why not use props like a flying carpet?"

Diane changed the subject. As a modern time traveler, being wary of marriage fraud is basic knowledge. He didn't want to be tricked by Bridget, just as Diane had already been tricked by the maid.

Attracted by that gentle and soft beauty, Diane didn't understand why the male protagonists in movies and novels had to find a fairy who was so-called free from feudal constraints after traveling through time.

They even call it having a common language and the taste of home. They look for fairies before traveling through time and they still look for fairies after traveling through time. Isn't it a waste of time to travel through time?

"Because we need to load cargo and collect samples, props like flying carpets won't fit!"

There is no space magic in this world, and naturally there are no storage items such as so-called space rings.

"Secondly, props like flying carpets are small and convenient, but they consume magic power. I don't want to lose any power, and the speed of the boat is not much slower than the flying carpet!"

Bridget was looking for excuses, but in fact she was not in a hurry. She was sure who the cultists were, but she had no hope of finding evidence.

"Don't you want to lose any strength? You might be attacked by danger at any time? If it's so dangerous, you still brought me here. Do you think I'm a detective?"

Diane held her forehead slightly, thinking that she shouldn't have believed Brigitta's words. She was deceived after all. She glanced at the smiling maid, but the maid didn't warn her.

"It's not dangerous. There are many powerful angels in this sea area. How can the cultists dare to stay here? They can't escape at all. It's just a habit in the spiritual realm. Don't waste your strength casually."

Bridget hurried to explain, but she didn't dare to wear down Diane's trust. She was afraid that instead of gaining Diane's favor, she would make her feel disgusted.

"The reason I asked you to come with me is actually to find a chance to spend more time with me so I can observe you more conveniently!"

Bridget told the truth honestly. After all, it would be more embarrassing if someone exposed her. It was better to be proactive. She was just trying to hook Diane, the silent fish, and find a reason to go out with him.

"What's there to observe? He's just an ordinary person."

The other party was too frank, which made Diane have no reason to blame. The other party said that the target was him, and he had nothing to say. It was not like he wanted to harm him, so he just covered it up casually.

"Whether you are an ordinary person or not is not up to you to decide. At least for now, it seems that you are not simple, Lord An!"

Bridget put her hands in her pockets, the sea breeze blew her slightly curled snow-white hair, and her delicate face seemed to overlap with the queen's, her eyes full of inquiry.

"Then come and expose my true identity. I'm not afraid of being exposed."

Diane rolled her eyes, leaned on the railing of the deck, and didn't bother to pay attention to Bridget. No matter how curious Bridget was, there was no way she could guess his true identity, so she could just try to catch the fish.

At most, it is the same as Isabella at the beginning, who believes that it is related to Queen Greta, and may be a minor noble of Istaya who is the heir of Queen Greta.

In addition to finding evidence that Duke Stuart is a cultist, Diane needs to be proactive in seamlessly inserting herself into the role of Isabella's husband, and other matters can be delayed until the maid recovers.

Bridget is great and sincere, and a fine colleague. But being distracted by her teasing is like being unable to walk at the sight of beauty. You deserve to die.

"It's not necessary to have any background information. At least I know you are not a bad person. By the way, Lord An, what are your ambitions?"

Diane's background is not so easy to find out. Seeing Diane's indifferent look, Bridget didn't want to be bothered. She just asked Diane what she wanted to do in one sentence.

"I want to live off my wife, so I'll find a powerful wife and live off her!"

He had found it, and he ate the maid's soft rice with all his heart. The maid was happy for him to eat it, and even made the rice softer for fear that it would damage Diane's teeth.

"This...is not good..."

"If you feel bad about it, it means you are not my target demographic and we are not suitable for each other."

Diane felt that she had fed the holy blood to Isabella, and Isabella was almost certain to win, so she didn't even pretend in front of other people.

"It's not that I can't let you live off me, I'm just afraid that others will laugh at you. I want to help you become stronger."

Bridget approached Diane with some grievance, thinking she was too difficult to please. However, Diane, who openly said that she was a gigolo, was also quite cute.

Thinking about what Isabella said after Diane left, the two of them really were a perfect match.

"Look, who laughs at me for being Dean Isabella's gigolo? Don't they all think I'm capable? You don't have to force yourself to understand, because you won't be able to fully understand."

Diane looked helpless. Did Bridget not understand the meaning of rejection?
"This……"

Bridget was so blocked that she didn't know what to say. Diane's confrontational attitude was really a headache.

"What are they doing over there? Fishing? There was a sea monster attack yesterday, so isn't it a bit urgent to fish now?"

Diane looked at a boat casting a net that appeared on the other side and changed the subject. Anyway, his attitude was clear. Refusal was refusal. He would take the benefits and send the shells back.

"The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish. It turns out they made the right bet. So, it's not dangerous now, is it?"

Bridget speculated that there were even demigods watching over Tudor's seas right now, so it was even safer to bravely go out fishing than usual.

"Why is that fishing boat rocking back and forth?"

Diane thought about it and realized that this was the truth. Then she saw the approaching fishing boat shaking.

"Maybe they caught something big, like a whale. No, it looks like the boat is going to capsize!" Bridget noticed that the boat was shaking more and more violently. Realizing something, she flew into the air and headed directly towards the fishing boat.

"What's that big thing down there?"

Diane turned to ask the maid beside her, looking at the fishing boat that was about to tilt and fall to feed the fish, Diane asked curiously.

"It shouldn't be a sea monster, otherwise it would have already gone into the water. Look, Director Bridget went into the water and the boat stabilized. Director Bridget is a kind person."

The maid sensed the situation of the fishing boat and praised Bridget for helping the boat when she saw it was in trouble.

"She's probably not a bad woman, she's just too loyal to the Queen. The Queen asked her to like me, so she did, saying things against her will and doing things against her will."

A person's character can be seen in small things. The nobleman rushed to rescue the fishing boat when he realized it was in danger, which showed that he had good intentions. After all, Diane had seen many anthropomorphic creatures.

"There's nothing I can do. This is the Queen's will. Master, you just have to follow your heart. When I recover, I'll send Queen Tudor to your bed as a toy. Let her play this game on you!"

The maid thought Diane was dissatisfied with the Queen and promised Diane that it was the Queen who asked her to cause trouble.

"That's not the case. It's not a crime that serious. Do you feel recovered now?"

The Queen's side is currently more curious and does not have much malice. She will not show mercy if Diane kills her entire family, but she is not so moody and is more in favor of consistent punishment.

Compared to the so-called queen, Diane is more concerned about the current situation of the maid. Now that he has obtained Tudor's official position, has the maid begun to recover?
"I can indeed better understand the essence of various laws, prosperity, and abundance... It shouldn't be long before I return to the angel level."

The maid described the recovery effect, which was immediate and faster than she had expected, much faster.

"That's good. It's worth my coming here to play house."

Dai An felt comforted after receiving the maid's affirmative answer. Although becoming Bridget's secretary meant being tormented by this royal sister, she could accept Bridget's inquiring gaze all day long if there was such a reward.

"Thank you for your patience, Master."

The maid approached Diane and gently patted her shoulder, feeling sorry for Diane who was running around for her.

"Why is it hard? Bridget didn't do anything out of the ordinary. How can it be considered hard? It's not hard. She's here!"

There was a ripple of water in the distance, and Diane saw a black dot approaching. Bridget was back. Not only was she back, but Diane also saw that she seemed to be holding a fish.

To be precise, it was not a fish, but a small creature with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a fish. It looked to be less than ten years old, and its big eyes stared blankly at Diane and Bridget.

"Mermaid? Is that what the fishing boat caught?"

Diane became interested because of the story of the Little Mermaid. She also had a good impression of mermaids, although she had not seen the dark version. Secondly, the little thing in front of her was as beautiful as a porcelain doll.

"let me go!"

The little mermaid with a baby voice was holding the net bag, her little face puffed up and tears in her eyes.

"Just now, just a small fish almost capsized the fishing boat?"

Diane felt incredible and said that the other person's ears were shaped like fish fins, and his little face was pink and tender, so cute.

"That's her. Mermaids are extraordinary creatures, so it's perfectly normal for them to be able to do this. It's just that she's too young to use magic. Otherwise, she wouldn't be pulling with brute force, but probably using the waves to engulf the fishing boat."

The tall Bridget mentioned the little mermaid as if she was showing off her catch, and talked about how powerful the little mermaid would be when she grew up.

"She's so powerful, let her go, she's so pitiful!"

Diane looked at the tearful face of the little mermaid and chuckled. The sulking little mermaid, who was being rocked by Bridget, raised her head with a pouting look on her face, her eyes lighting up, as if she had found support.

"Don't you want it?"

Bridget was slightly surprised and lifted the girl in the fishing net.

"What do you want?"

"Mermaids are also called sirens. Their singing makes them the perfect ornaments in a noble's home, and they command the highest price!"

"Oh, then you can sell it! I'm not some proper noble, so I don't need it!"

When Diane heard this, he realized that it was a luxury item, so he shouldn't throw it away. He could just persuade people to release it, but he wasn't being generous.

"I don't want to be sold!"

The little mermaid in the fishing net grabbed the net and shook it back and forth. The hope that had risen turned into despair.

"Improper nobles, there are more ways to play with mermaids. Don't you want to try it?"

Bridget lifted her hair with one hand and held it down with the other hand, rubbing it and handing it to Diane.

"It's not mine, why would I try it?"

Diane was already leaning against the fence with no room to retreat, so she could only lean to the left.

"I'll give it to you. Consider it a gift I tricked you into giving me!"

The royal sister threw the mermaid in front of Diane without caring about Diane's attempt to dodge.

The blue-haired, blue-eyed mermaid was thrown to the ground and rolled several times like a salted fish. She glared at Bridget with her eyes, but dared not say a word.

"It's too valuable, I can't accept it!"

Diane walked a few steps along the fence away from the little mermaid and saw the incredible expression on the little mermaid's face.

"Just take it if you're told to. Why are you being so fussy? They said it was compensation, and it was given to you. If you want to release it, just let it go."

Bridget snorted coldly, and the little mermaid who crawled out of the fishing net was at a loss. Compared to the cold-looking Bridget, she used her hands and tail, jumped to Diane's side and hugged Diane's thighs.

"help me!"

"Idiot, jump back into the sea now! You're free! Don't get caught in the net next time."

"Ugh!"

Diane picked up the little mermaid by the armpits and threw her into the sea.

"thump……"

"You really don't plan to stay?"

"Why stay? I don't like loli."

“She’ll grow up!”

"Then she will come back to repay you when she grows up."
