Type-Moon, isn't this really the other world?

Trisha opened her mouth, only to feel a little dizzy!

She was so excited that she forgot she was in a public place. No, actually, it didn't matter that she was in a public place. Lately, Lin Jiu'an had often dragged her to public places to "educate" her.

They forgot there were people around!

Urgent! How should I reply?!

Or should we kill him to silence him?

After considering the possibility of this idea for a moment, Trisha abandoned it, mainly because people were already boarding the train.

And because this stop is London.

Many of them were acquaintances from the Clock Tower, or at least people whose names they could recall; they couldn't very well kill them all...

It doesn’t seem impossible?

"Who is this?"

Fortunately, Lin Jiu'an reached out and put his arm around her waist, breaking the silence and stopping Trisha's massacre plan.

Trisha, no longer caring about her resentment towards Lin Jiu'an for falling in love with every woman he took a liking to, introduced, "Mr. Lin, this... oh?!"

A slap rang out.

Trisha felt a burning sensation on her buttocks.

However, what made Trisha feel even more ashamed than the burning pain and strange feeling in her buttocks was the strange and eerie gazes of the passengers who had just entered the car.

Trisha gave Lin Jiu'an a resentful look.

But when he realized that the other person wasn't even looking at him, he knew that if he didn't change how he addressed them, the other person would never let him go. So he could only whisper in front of everyone.

"Owner."

Feeling the increasingly strange gazes from passersby.

Trisha lowered her head slightly, her cold and aloof expression completely crumbling, her face turning as red as if it could bleed.

"This, this is Clock Tower, Ms. Adashino Hisauri from the Department of Law and Politics."

Unlike Trisha, who was so ashamed she wanted to commit suicide, Lin Jiu'an didn't care at all about the strange looks from passersby.

After letting Trisha finish her introduction, she made up an excuse and hurriedly fled, and Lin Jiu'an did not stop her.

Growth should be moderate; forcing growth is not advisable.

Moreover, Trisha's cool and aloof appearance, coupled with her shyness when surrounded by onlookers, makes her perfectly suited.

Otherwise, you could make Trisha like Kama or Tamamo-no-Mae, who don't care about the gazes of these ants, and who look at these humans as if they were insects, and who can be affectionate with them without a care in the world.

That means there's no intention to educate Trisha in public, behind everyone's back, and in front of Olga Marie.

"So it's Miss Adashino, I've heard so much about you."

Lin Jiu'an walked up to Hina Koya with a smile and extended his hand to her: "My name is Lin Jiu'an, and I'm Trisha's friend."

Friend? Master, perhaps?

Ryori Hideyuki looked at Lin Jiu'an with a strange gaze.

Although she wasn't very familiar with Trisha, she was, after all, a rising star in the Department of Law and Politics, and the number one lackey of the "Bartholomew" family, so she did know about the tutor of the young lady of the Animusfia family.

It wasn't just because of Olga Marie's governess.

She herself once studied at the Clock Tower and was a well-known cold beauty there. She had many suitors, including that old pervert Margot Daniels, who pursued her back then, but she never gave anyone the time of day.

Even after marriage.

She also separated from her husband and didn't even give birth to children for him, instead becoming Olga Marie's governess.

Who can imagine.

This is the famously cold and aloof beauty from the clock tower. She hadn't been seen for several days, but then an Eastern man took her in and she actually called him "master" in public.

Does Trisha's husband know about this?

"Lady Trisha is a famously cold beauty in the Clock Tower."

"Mr. Lin is truly remarkable for winning her heart."

Ryori Hideaki extended one hand and gently shook hands with Lin Jiu'an, while her left hand raised her sleeve to cover her lips and smiled softly.

Lin Jiu'an felt a surge of warmth in his heart upon seeing this.

Speaking of which, having lived in Japan for so long, with most of the women in her harem being Japanese, Aoi Tohsaka's personality is also the very traditional and standard Japanese Yamato Nadeshiko type.

However, there are classic-style island beauties like Hirori Adashino.

He hasn't slept yet.

This woman is destined to be with me!

Although his heart was burning with excitement, and he had even flashed through the process of deciphering the kimono, Lin Jiu'an only gave her a polite handshake before parting ways.

"Doesn't Miss Adashino know me?"

"Ugh?"

Ryori Hideyuki blinked suspiciously.

She could sense that the boy in front of her, who was not even as old as her, wasn't the kind of person who would act arrogantly or presumptuously in front of a woman; rather, he was genuinely surprised that she didn't know him.

Actually.

Ryori Adashino really didn't know Lin Jiu'an.

Although the Legal and Political Department has a wide scope of authority, managing matters concerning the other eleven departments within the Clock Tower, matters outside the Clock Tower are not under their jurisdiction.

It's similar to the Ministry of Home Affairs in the port area.

Some time ago, when Lin Jiu'an was wreaking havoc in London, she happened to be out looking for her brother. She heard that the Clock Tower had been destroyed by a black dragon and that a large number of magicians had died tragically.

As for more specific details...

During this time, she did not return to the Clock Tower. Even when she did return, she was preoccupied with finding her brother and had no interest in inquiring about matters that were none of her concern.

After all, not many people know the name Lin Jiu'an.

"I'm sorry, I've been busy with some things lately and I'm not very aware of what's happening outside." Hirori Hakuno smiled slightly, but then suddenly realized something, and her pupils contracted.

Eastern men.

Olga Marie is close to Trisha, who, as the tutor of Miss Animusfia, is always by Olga Marie's side and practically represents Olga Marie, which means that this person is close to the Animusfia family.

The age is suitable.

And given her appearance, even after witnessing the scene of the other party humiliating Trisha, she couldn't muster much disgust.

For an instant.

The smile on Hirori Hideyuki's face was somewhat stiff.

Could this be the black dragon that destroyed the Clock Tower and half of London with a single breath?

"It seems that Miss Hakuno has already figured out who I am."

"Want to grab a drink?"

Ryori Adano's expression changed slightly; she wanted to refuse but didn't dare.

Although the other party is acting like a decent human being now, he is, after all, the Black Dragon who has killed millions of people without a word. Who knows if the other party will turn on him if I refuse him?

But if he agrees, dragons are inherently lustful, especially given his recent humiliation of Trisha, which proves that he is extremely lecherous.

Then wouldn't I be...

"Miss Hanako seems to have something on her mind."

Seeing the uncertain expression on Hinako's face, Lin Jiu'an smiled slightly, leaned down and said softly, "Why don't we have a drink together and talk to me? Maybe I can help you."

Chapter Thirty-Three: The Fall of Ryori Adashino

"Daniel."

They got off the train together.

After leaving the area where the crowds were somewhat dense.

Orion suddenly spoke up: "How about we capture them?"

Margot Daniels was startled, then followed Orion's gaze and saw Trisha, who was hurriedly escaping the train and joining Olga Marie as they left the platform.

"That's not right."

"What's wrong with it?"

"Haven't you ever suspected that Rita has already allied with Lin Jiu'an, no, that she has become Lin Jiu'an's person?"

Marg Daniel's pupils contracted slightly, and he remained silent.

"Haven't you noticed anything strange these past few days? Where exactly does the other party live? And how do they know our location at any time?"

"It's better to be safe than sorry. If Rita really is colluding with Lin Jiu'an, then Siegfried's relic will be completely hopeless."

"But if we catch those two women..."

“We’ll then have leverage to negotiate with Lin Jiu’an. With these two women in our hands, would he really refuse to exchange them for Siegfried’s relics?”

A cold glint flashed in Orion's eyes.

Actually, there's one more thing he didn't mention.

Lin Jiu'an, that newborn.

He would appear before him every day with Artemis in his arms, swaggering around and kissing and touching Artemis, whom he had never even touched before. Who knows what he would do to his goddess at night.

He has to collect some interest first.

If you dare to mess with my woman, then I'll mess with yours!

“This is not a good thing.” Marg Daniel saw Orion’s expression and knew what he was thinking. He sighed inwardly.

After these days of contact...

He also knew that this Greek hero, known for his handsome looks, was not a good man or woman, but that was to be expected.

After all, it was a chaotic era devoid of moral education.

The heroic deeds recorded, whether those of Hercules or other heroes, are less like heroes and more like a series of ruthless and unscrupulous individuals emerging from the perspective of modern values.

Even from the perspective of magicians' values, there are some...

“I know you’re worried that since you’re colleagues, what happened to him today might happen to you in the future.”

“If we don’t act ruthlessly now, it’s uncertain whether your family will even be able to exist in the future.”

"Or do you think that if you win, you will let the Animusfia family go?"

Marg Daniel's face stiffened.

The reason they haven't taken action against the Animusfia family, who are stubbornly following Lin Jiu'an, is not because they are concerned about past relationships.

It's simply because of its inherent strengths.

Although the Animusfia family is not one of the three noble families, it is still an old magic family and monarchical lineage that has been passed down for more than ten generations. I really want to destroy the Animusfia family.

It's not that it's difficult, it's that it's simply impossible.

If Balyeleta were still alive, the three noble families could still have done it.

But now the Baluyeleta family has been ruined by Lin Jiu'an's dragon breath, and is internally scrambling for power and splitting apart. Even if their basic combat strength is still there, how could they be so foolish as to cooperate with them to destroy an entity that, even if destroyed, would leave them with nothing to eat or protect their foundation?

and so.

Of the three noble families, only the Tramberg and Barthezmello families remained.

The Holy Church and the True Ancestor certainly wouldn't join them in destroying the Animusfia family. Even if they agreed to his and Lorelei's request, they wouldn't be foolish enough to invite trouble.

if that's the case.

Won't their Clock Tower end up like the Holy Church, talking about hunting down the True Ancestors, but a large portion of the church's high-ranking members are either True Ancestors or related to them?

The other eight monarchical families.

Although the Bartholomew family has almost pulled through, there is still a long way to go before their magic crest is fully restored. Currently, their focus is on helping El-Melloi II restore the family's magic crest.
