Wizard: The exploration panel keeps me pure.

Just as the three of them were looking at each other in silence, a figure pushed open the door and walked in.

As they walked, they talked, "Monica, what are you doing standing at the door? Is Visia inside? There's a dance tonight, where has that girl gone again..."

The woman who had just entered the living room was stunned when she saw Ron and his companion, seemingly surprised that so many guests had come to her home today.

This person was none other than the Countess, who had just returned home after having afternoon tea with the other ladies.

At that moment, she looked at the two unfamiliar teenagers in the room and her eyes narrowed.

But it must be said that, being a noblewoman, her good upbringing allowed her to quickly recover after a moment of stunned silence. She immediately wore the same smile as her daughter and asked in a gentle tone:

"Vicia, you didn't even tell me you had guests. Quickly introduce these two young gentlemen to your mother."

The girl's face showed initial panic upon seeing her mother, but she quickly recovered and replied:

"Mom, this is Mr. Ron, and this is Mr. Ryan. They are both my friends, and they just happened to have some time to come to our house today."

"Is that so? Hello, gentlemen. I'm so sorry, Visia is such a sensible child; she didn't even tell me beforehand."

The Countess smiled as she heard her daughter's words and looked at the two people sitting on the sofa, her tone full of enthusiasm.

"What are you saying, Madam? We are the ones who have come uninvited and have disturbed your esteemed residence."

Ron sat next to the young man, watching his awkward appearance, and smiled without saying a word.

Meanwhile, Visia glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, as if to say, "It's all your fault."

"Hehe, gentlemen, you haven't had dinner yet, have you? I'll have the kitchen prepare dinner right away. You two can chat with Visia for a while here."

As soon as the countess finished speaking, she got up and left the living room, leaving the three of them looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Mr. Ron, why didn't you say anything just now?"

As Visia watched her mother's departing figure, she asked in a calm tone.

"I'm just afraid of being misunderstood."

"What's the misunderstanding?"

Ron fell silent. Ryan, who was standing to the side, looked at the two of them and seemed to have noticed something as well. He sat on the sofa and drank his tea without saying a word.

The three of them remained silent, each lost in their own thoughts.

Time passed slowly.

Soon the Countess's voice came from outside the door: "Via, quickly bring the two gentlemen to the dining room for dinner."

"Let's go, Mr. Ron, and um~ Mr. Ryan too."

The girl got up and walked towards the door. Ryan glanced at the boy who was calmly sitting on the sofa continuing to drink tea, quietly tugged at his sleeve, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Ron, do you and Miss Vicia have some kind of conflict?"

"I think he seems to have some issues with you. If there's any conflict, I think it's best if you talk to him about it as soon as possible. After all, she's an earl's daughter, and getting closer to her will be helpful for our future plans."

"plan?"

Ron asked in a puzzled tone, "When did I come up with this plan?"

"No?"

As soon as the young man finished speaking, the two fell silent, exchanged a glance, and silently followed their daughter toward the restaurant.

As soon as the two arrived at the restaurant, they saw the Countess looking at them with a smile on her face.

"Mr. Ron, Mr. Ryan, please don't be so polite. We apologize for not being a good host tonight."

That's what they said, but the table full of food in the center of the room still left Ryan dumbfounded.

Even though becoming a superhuman and joining the Black Rose Security Company improved his family's financial situation, this was the first time he had ever witnessed such a scene.

In contrast, Ron's performance was much more natural.

After all, whether in his past life or in this life after joining the Red Moon Tower, he has seen quite a few grand scenes, so he is not surprised by this.

He sat down at the dining table with a calm expression, a faint smile on his lips:

"Thank you for your hospitality, madam, and Miss Vicia as well."

Seeing this, Ryan immediately followed suit.

The Countess watched the two with a smile, though she had actually been observing their behavior the whole time. To be honest, she had initially been somewhat displeased with Ryan's naive and unsophisticated manner.

Some details reveal that this person is not like his daughter.

She was still wondering why Visia would become friends with someone like that, but after seeing Ron's behavior later, she immediately understood.

The friend of their daughter was not that unremarkable young man, but Mr. Ron, who remained calm and composed throughout.

"Mr. Ron, where do you live? And I'm a little curious, how did you and my Visia meet?"

As soon as dinner began, the Countess couldn't help but inquire about the background of her daughter's friend.

Although I know Visia is very sensible, I am still worried that my daughter will be deceived.

"Mom, we're eating. Why are you asking these questions?"

Despite finding Mr. Ron annoying, the girl couldn't help but speak up for him. She knew that her "teacher's" identity was something that couldn't be revealed, and her mother's question could easily expose something.

"Hmph, what are you looking at? I just can't bear to see you thrown in jail."

The girl who was speaking noticed that Ron was looking at her, and immediately returned his gaze with a "fierce" look.

Although he didn't know what her look meant, Ron roughly guessed what she was thinking and a smile crept onto his lips.

"Via, Mommy's just curious. Have you finished your homework today?"

When the Countess saw that her daughter had started to defend the boy opposite her, a bad feeling arose in her heart. She immediately changed the subject and dared not ask any further questions, for fear that she would not be able to sleep that night.

Upon hearing her mother's words, Visia's expression immediately fell, and she gave the boy, who had been smiling and silent, a resentful look.

He then grunted twice and buried his head in the food on his plate.

Seeing that her words had an effect, the Countess breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, it hasn't gotten to the worst yet. But it seems I have to tell Hobert tonight, lest he still doesn't know that his daughter has been kidnapped."

Ryan, sitting next to Ron, was quite content as no one paid him any attention.

He was enjoying his food on the side, oblivious to everything else.

The atmosphere in the restaurant fell silent, with only the sound of knives and forks clattering against plates.

Just as they were finishing dinner, Monica pushed open the door and came in. She went to the Countess's side and whispered, "Madam, it seems something has happened to the Count. He might not be back tonight."

Although the voice was very soft, the other three were all superhumans.

His five senses were naturally beyond what ordinary people could compare to, and he easily heard her words.

Ron and his companion were still relatively calm, but Visia's expression changed, just like her own mother's.

Suddenly, a huge explosion came from outside, and a burst of flames shone through the door that had just been opened and had not yet been closed, illuminating the faces of everyone in the room.
