Charlotte and Daisy exchanged a glance and smiled. Anna was even more confused: "What are you laughing at? Why are you hiding it from me?"

Princess Anna was extremely unhappy about being isolated by her friends. Anna was very angry! Super angry!

"Actually, it's like this..."

Seeing that their friends were angry, Charlotte and Daisy stopped hiding it from her. They exchanged a glance, and in the end, Daisy told them everything that had happened the day before.

Then Miss Anna got even angrier: "Daisy! Why didn't you tell me sooner!"

Although Anna is a princess, this is not the capital city, and even her sister's power has only recently begun to grow. Anna has no energy to investigate her friends' family background.

Despite the truth of the matter, Anna still felt a pang of guilt: "If only I had discovered it sooner..."

"Okay."

Daisy took Anna's hand: "I'm fine now, aren't I?"

"But, but what if Daisy, you hadn't run away on your own..."

The thought filled Anna with dread. Daisy's parents were going to sell her off. What would have happened if Daisy hadn't managed to escape?

But Daisy still smiled and said, "It's okay, Anna and Charlotte will come to save me, right?"

"Does that need to be said?"

Anna clenched her fist: "I'll blow all the bad guys away! Whoosh!"

Seeing Anna's expression, Charlotte couldn't help but laugh.

"What? You guys don't believe me?!"

Seeing her two friends laughing heartily, Princess Anna once again showed a sullen expression.

After some playful banter, the group entered Anna's room. Anna looked excited: "Operation Save Enshia, let's begin!"

"Hmm, but can we really do it?"

Daisy was starting to lose confidence, but Anna waved her hand dismissively: "It's okay, no matter how many difficulties we face, as long as we have faith, we will definitely succeed!"

Charlotte still felt she needed to tell Lorraine, but firstly, she found the matter somewhat strange, and secondly, she really didn't want to spoil her friend's mood.

Of course, most importantly, she felt that the mysterious man's words were an exaggeration. If a bomb could blow up the entire Enshiya, why would he be hiding?

Charlotte still believed that Lorraine could resolve the matter.

"Ahem, gentlemen, let's begin the meeting!"

Anna's cough drew their attention back, and the princess waved her hand, "Let's discuss this mystery!"

The three looked at the riddle. Charlotte stroked her chin, deep in thought: "The slumbering object reflects the first sacrificial victim, meaning... does that mean the first bomb was in the place symbolizing the 'slumbering object'?"

"Hmm, but the inn we mentioned yesterday isn't right. Is there anything else that symbolizes the slumbering thing?"

"Well......"

Charlotte pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of something: "Moonflower?"

"That makes sense..."

Anna nodded, but Daisy raised a question: "But the Moon Flower is a symbol of the goddess of the night, and there is almost no place in Enshia where the Moon Flower is grown."

"Yes..."

"Is that so..."

Charlotte wanted to say that she knew where the Moonflower was planted, but then she thought again that it was inside the labyrinth that Loran had made, so there was no way she could hide a bomb there.

If it's really hidden there, it means that this matter is definitely related to Loran!

The investigation had reached another impasse when, just then, a bell rang outside the window.

Daisy seemed to suddenly remember something, got up, and opened the window of Anna's room. She could see the clock tower standing in the center of the city, with the hour hand pointing precisely to eight o'clock.

The clock tower in the center of Enshiya City chimes long and deep, as residents open their doors to greet each other on the new day, preparing for the evening festival.

"Yes, I understand!"

Daisy suddenly exclaimed, "It's the clock tower!"

Chapter 51 The Half-Dragon's Nose is Actually Very Sensitive

"The clock tower?"

Anna was a little confused. Charlotte frowned, thought carefully, and suddenly clapped her hands: "That's right, how come I didn't think of that? It's the clock tower!"

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about?"

Seeing her two friends' expressions of sudden realization, Princess Anna pouted. "What? I always feel like I'm not up to it. Doesn't this make me look like an idiot?"

Ugh, I'm so angry!

Seeing Anna's expression, Charlotte and Daisy exchanged a glance and laughed. Daisy chuckled, "Anna probably hasn't read much of the Holy Scriptures, has she?"

"a ha ha ha......"

Anna tried to brush it off with a laugh, but then suddenly realized, "Wait, what does this have to do with the Holy Scriptures?"

"Yeah, I haven't really watched it much."

Charlotte nodded, and Anna was now completely angry: "You two, stop trying to fool me! Tell me now!"

"Okay, no more joking."

Seeing that Anna was angry, Daisy stopped keeping her in suspense and began to recite an ancient poem: "When the sun and moon rise and set for the seventh time, mankind will awaken to the tolling of bells and end their eternal slumber here."

"This is......"

"Chapter Seven of the Holy Scripture: The Birth of the Evil God, The Bell of Zero."

Upon hearing Daisy's words, Anna gasped in surprise, then asked, still puzzled, "But what does this have to do with the sleeping thing?"

Charlotte explained, "The scriptures say that the Zero Bell is an evil god born from the dreams of the sleepers. It was His appearance that ended the sleepers' dreams. Therefore, in some texts, the bell tower is referred to as the sleeping thing."

"...Is there any connection between the two?"

Anna was still puzzled: "If the Clock of Zero truly ended the sleepers' dreams, shouldn't it be called something like 'awakening'? Why is it called something that is asleep?"

"I don't know about that..."

In fact, Charlotte was also a little confused, but Daisy said, "Let's put these things aside for now and go to the clock tower to investigate."

"Well, speaking of which, Daisy is really smart."

Charlotte exclaimed in admiration, "To think you could recall the connection between the 'Sleeping Thing' and the Zeroing Bell so quickly!"

"Hehe, no."

黛西挠着脸颊,有些不好意思每^日.发!书,群【6`5,0/5^0”2*3>3.8】的样子。安娜却反驳:“哪有,黛西就是很厉害的!”

"Um, you two, stop talking."

Miss Daisy was very shy, her face as red as an apple: "Let's go, let's go to the clock tower and see if there's anything there."

"Uh-huh!"

Knowing they would be running around a lot today, they all wore clothes that allowed for easy movement—in fact, Daisy was wearing Charlotte's old clothes.

Because of the hasty events yesterday, Daisy didn't have time to bring a change of clothes, so she naturally wore one of Charlotte's outfits. Fortunately, the two were of similar build, otherwise it would have been quite troublesome.

The three young ladies boarded the Morganfleur family's carriage and headed towards the city.

However, due to the approaching festival, many side streets in the city were closed to carriages, so the carriage had to drop Charlotte and her two companions off on the main road. But it wasn't a big deal; they could walk across.

With the festival approaching, the city is bustling with activity. Vendors set up their stalls early in the morning, and tourists from all over flock to the area, creating a lively atmosphere.

At this moment, the red-haired, golden-eyed half-dragon lady was yawning and wandering around.

“Enshiya... Come to think of it, it’s been several years since I last came here.”

Picking up an apple from a roadside stall and tossing down a copper coin, Christine said somewhat listlessly, "That old man is really crazy. He said something like 'the trajectory of the destined person has been affected' and sent me to Enshiya. No, Messiah is still alive and well!"

"These magicians are all damn riddle-ridden bastards."

Although she was very dissatisfied, Miss Christine still had a strong sense of contractual responsibility, since she had signed a contract with them after all.

But listen to what this old woman is saying! She was asked to find the person, and what happened? No location, no appearance, no distinguishing features, just this damn thing: "Fate will guide you to meet."

I curse you, my fate!

Christine wanted nothing more than to punch that old man!

Even so, the old man was in his seventies or eighties after all, and if he were to throw a punch, he could easily kill him.

Although I, Christine, have a bad temper and a foul mouth, I am a good person who respects the elderly!

As Christine was lost in thought, she suddenly smelled a familiar scent.

That familiar scent, almost marinated in Messiah's blessing—after much thought, I realized that besides myself, there were only two other people who could smell it.

"Ice-faced Number One, Estia is in the Elf Forest, she wouldn't possibly be here."

Then there's only one answer!

Former Ice-Cold Face Number Two, Lorian!

Oh, right, this guy's name is Loran now.

Holy crap, what's this guy doing here...? Oh, I remember now, Enshiya is supposed to be his hometown. But isn't he usually always wandering around and nowhere to be seen? Why is he staying in Enshiya this year?

eccentric.

But Miss Christine never liked to overthink things. For her, having friends here meant she could freeload a meal!

Come to think of it, she remembered that Lorian was a nobleman.

Hehe, when the time comes, I'll have him arrange for someone to complete the old man's task, and I'll just freeload off him!

Fantasizing about a wonderful life, Christine closed her eyes, rushed towards the scent, and instinctively tried to hook her arm around the guy's neck, only to find herself missing.

Christine lost her balance for a moment, but thankfully, thanks to her seventh-level balance, she regained it. However, her hand accidentally pressed against something.

Does it look a bit like someone's hair?

Feeling the strong sense of familiarity around her, Christine was a little confused. Wait a minute, how could Lorian be so short? And this hair doesn't seem like Lorian's.

Okay, Miss Christine, stop fooling yourself, you've mistaken me for someone else.

Christine opened her eyes somewhat awkwardly, then met a pair of large, bewildered blue pupils.

Charlotte was also confused. They were on their way to the clock tower when suddenly a red-haired older sister with her eyes closed appeared out of nowhere, gestured something above Charlotte's head, and then suddenly pressed her head down.

"Haha, the weather is really nice today."

What is this person saying?

Charlotte, Anna, and Daisy exchanged glances, wondering if this beautiful older sister was a fool.

Chapter 52 What to do when you find out your friend has a child after not seeing them for years?

"Um, hello?"

Although Charlotte sensed something was off about this older woman, she still greeted her politely, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"..."

The red-haired half-dragon lady remained silent for a long time before finally accepting reality: she had not only mistaken the person for someone else, but had also accidentally pressed her hand on the person's head.

Haha, thank goodness Lorian and Estia aren't here, otherwise I would really consider moving to another continent.

However, why does this little girl possess such a strong Messiah's blessing? It also carries a hint of that Lorian guy's scent.

Blonde hair and blue eyes... doesn't seem like Lorian's child, after all, Lorian has black hair and black eyes.

I'm still very curious.

Christine, who was always straightforward, always asked questions directly. She coughed twice and said, "Um, young lady, do you know someone named... Loran?"

Knowing that Lorian was now using the name "Loran," and that the name Lorian was rather eye-catching, Christine quickly changed her address.

"Um, is there something you need from this person?"

Unsure why this strange-looking redhead wanted to see Loran, Charlotte didn't answer her question but instead asked her this in return. Christine scratched her head, thinking that the girl was quite wary, and said, "I'm that guy's friend... I remember he has an older sister, I think her name is Serena? His sister lives here."

Hearing Christine's words, Charlotte believed her somewhat: "Well..."

"Ok?"

Miss Christine, unaware that she hadn't given her name, tilted her head and looked at Charlotte, leaving Charlotte completely at a loss for words. It was Anna who spoke up at this point: "How should I address you, Your Excellency?"
