My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

Chapter 65: She is the Thunder Emperor's wife!!? (7000 words)

The banquet venue was located at the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce.

As soon as Weiss uttered that slightly sarcastic remark, Oliver's expression immediately turned extremely strange.

"Wait, you mean...?"

Were you there the day I participated in the night patrol selection?

"Oh, yes."

Hearing Oliver's trembling voice, Weiss casually admitted it.

He appeared completely open and honest, showing absolutely no sign of guilt.

In an instant, Oliver's mind went completely blank.

In fact, he had already suspected Weiss on that rainy night, and hadn't even questioned him with any evidence or reason.

But in the end, he was just emotionally broken that day, and was simply making excuses in a fit of anger.

Anyone can figure it out immediately if they calm down and think about it.

To put it bluntly, Weiss is merely a level 9 Wind Addict. What right does he have to affect the power of a Climate Master? Nor could he possibly interrupt his spellcasting!

Not to mention, after Oliver officially joined the Night Patrol, he quickly and surprisingly discovered...

Although his 8th-tier climate mastery path was the least combat-savvy natural system, he still easily crushed the other 9th-tier transcendents in the team!

Faced with the admiring looks from his teammates, Oliver's shattered pride was completely restored.

That's right, the gap between ranks is an insurmountable chasm!

For a drug addict like Weiss, who is always calm and mild-mannered, he can at most soothe the patient's emotions. It is reasonable that his methods are more effective in relieving Elune's condition.

But the difference is—

For addicts to truly unleash their potential for combat, they must become manic.

Only under extreme emotions can one command the wind and rain.

Only then can one truly understand the secrets and techniques of drug addicts!

That's why combat is the very meaning of life for high-ranking superhumans!

It's also one of its unique advantages...

Therefore, based on his experience and insights gained during this period, Oliver had already completely ruled out Weiss as a suspect.

But he never expected that... on the day he joined the Night Patrol for interviews and the day he pulled off the dry-air maneuver, Weiss would happen to be there?

Why Weiss of all people?!

He witnessed firsthand his two embarrassing and blunder-inducing failures to control the rain.

No matter how you look at it, Weiss is far too suspicious...

Lost in his own thoughts, Oliver opened his mouth, his expression strange, but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Just like the test on that rainy night, no matter how much he suspected or how alert his instincts were, he couldn't find any evidence or possibility that Weiss was behind it.

unless......

This guy isn't a level 9 Wind Addict at all!!!

Just as Oliver was speechless, Weiss simply patted him on the shoulder and praised him with a half-smile, "Oreo... no, Oreo brother, keep up the good work after joining Night Patrol."

"Our safety as ordinary civilians depends entirely on the protection of your night patrols."

As soon as he finished speaking, Weiss walked straight past him and headed towards the center of the banquet hall.

Oliver was left alone, still frozen in place, holding his wine glass.

"impossible......"

"Logically speaking, it should be absolutely impossible—"

"..."

"..."

Looking at Oliver's dejected figure.

Aunt Bai, who was leaning on Weiss's shoulder, turned around and scratched his hair with some curiosity.

"By the way, Weiss, do you remember the name of that other commoner addicted to wind?"

“Aunt Bai, I was just teasing Oliver. I didn’t really forget his name. There’s no need to test me with such a basic question. How could I possibly forget Ryan, whom I’ve lived with for almost half a month?” Weiss was speechless.

Aunt Bai: "Hmm...you have a pretty good memory."

The finger of death has arrived.

Before long, as more and more nobles took their seats, the banquet hall gradually became bustling and noisy.

Just then, Nefertir, dressed in a luxurious blue gown, stepped into the banquet hall arm in arm with her aunt.

She had been entangled with a group of nobility exchanging pleasantries and had finally managed to break free. She ran straight to Weiss and exclaimed, "Oh, Weiss, I've finally found someone I know!"

"How is Elune doing lately?"

"Sleep when you should, lie down when you should, you're in good spirits, thank you for your concern, Miss Nefert."

. "

Weiss nodded politely.

Nefertory scoffed, "As if a person in a vegetative state could stand up and move around a bit..."

Soon, Weiss saw the woman in blue following behind Nefertory. She nodded slightly to Weiss, a subtle and complex look flashing in her eyes.

It's the same Rainwalker from the previous nursery rhyme route...

Just as Weiss was about to ask about the fifth-tier void, he was suddenly interrupted by a voice coming from the other side of the banquet hall.

Not far away, Zell, the head of the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce, was already dressed in an expensive suit and strolled to the center of the banquet.

"First of all, welcome to all the distinguished nobles who have graced us with their presence to support the opening ceremony of our Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce."

Of course, as he said this, a very subtle hint of contempt flashed in Zell's eyes.

If it weren't for the rumor that a fifth-tier being had emerged in Moonlit City, the Starry Sky Merchant Guild wouldn't have seen a business opportunity there.

Based on these impoverished nobles of Moonlit City...

Why would the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce be willing to open a branch for this group of poor bastards?

Especially Weiss from the most disgusting Selenenis family, he acts like he's never seen money before, you'd think he died poor in his past life.

"Heh, this guy really doesn't hide his contempt at all." Just then, a figure dressed in a snow-white nobleman's formal attire moved silently to the side of Weiss and Nefertir.

It was the Snow Knight...

He said in a sinister tone, "Head of Selenis, look at what you've done. You so easily gave the license to the Starry Sky Merchant Guild... Now, with the support of a big spender, even a force like Star Bell can openly infiltrate the market."

"The ruler of Moonlit City, how do you intend to take responsibility for this matter?"

No, how could this possibly relate to me?

Weiss took a sip of his wine and smiled calmly, "Your Highness Snow Knight, why did you let Yu Tu in? To be honest, Yu Tu's reputation isn't much better than Xing Zhong's, is it?"

Snow Knight: "......"

"Hey, we can hear you!"

Nefert, standing to the side, immediately retorted unhappily.

These words sound calm and unassuming on the surface, without any strong offensive intent.

Even without thinking about it carefully, it still feels a bit off.

It's like...

They're treating Yu Tu, Fan Xing Chamber of Commerce, and Xing Zhong all like pests.

Fortunately, Nifiel's aunt, Yutu, just smiled slightly, seemingly not wanting to dwell on the matter.

At least the residents of Moonlit City didn't throw mud at them.

At this moment, seeing the Snow Knight had delivered himself to his side, Weiss figured he might as well ask a question, so he casually asked:

"Speaking of which, how's the situation with the Black World Extermination Team?"

Previously, he was just an ordinary citizen and had no way of knowing about the underworld.

It wasn't until he unwittingly took over the position of head of Selenenis that he finally gained some formal access to information about the underworld.

According to the information gathered by Viss, Adele and her team have been taking quite a long time to complete their mission this time.

and......

The newly appointed governor and the snow knight in front of them seem to be well-known relatives.

They must know some inside information.

Upon hearing this, the Snow Knight shook his head, his expression complex.

"I am not sure as well."

"If the Black Realm Extermination Team hadn't been gone for so long, why would I have bothered taking over such a mess as Moonlit City?"

As he finished speaking, the Snow Knight's face showed a hint of fatigue, which didn't seem like an act.

Seeing this, Weiss also lowered his head, seemingly lost in thought.

What if Adele never comes back...

Just as Weiss was deep in thought, Zell finally finished his polite words.

The banquet then moved to a free period for activities.

The nobles raised their glasses and began to eat and chat in small groups.

However, the liveliest place in the entire banquet hall—

But it was Vera and Nyon from the Hayes family at their table.

To be precise, most of the nobles were there for Vera. Without the cover of that bizarre white mask, Vera's exquisite, doll-like face became the biggest focus of the entire evening.

In addition, the Hayes family had fallen on hard times and was no longer considered a wealthy or noble family. Many envious young noblemen tried to approach Vera for various reasons.

Vera became visibly irritated.

Of course, this was due to his older brother's previous promise that "I won't take care of you for the next month."

Vera could only force herself to swallow her anger and put on a well-behaved and dignified lady-like image.

She placed her hands neatly on her knees, and even the curve of her lips was perfectly controlled.

She is the perfect template of a well-bred lady from a prestigious family.

Seeing Vera's unusually well-behaved appearance.

Weston suddenly became interested, thinking that the way this crazy woman was pretending to be well was really quite comical.

He was just about to casually sway over and tease her—

But before she could even take a few steps forward, Vera immediately turned her head and glared fiercely at Vis.

That fierce look in his eyes seemed to say that if Weiss dared to use the pretext of flirting to provoke him and accidentally break his bandage, he would fight him to the death tonight.

"......cough"

Weiss silently retracted his outstretched foot, and quite tactfully turned a corner to let him pass.

Can't be bothered, can't be bothered.

A moment later, a well-dressed and rather handsome young nobleman approached Nion and asked in a very direct tone, "Young master of the Hayes family, I would like to discuss something with you."

"If I remember correctly, Miss Vera, you are not engaged yet, are you?"

"Isn't this the head of the Richter family?" Nyon was immediately flattered.

It should be noted that Richter was a highly powerful nobleman in Moonlit City, and he probably wouldn't even remember the name of the Hayes family normally. So the fact that he would take the initiative to talk to him today really startled Nyon.

So he quickly started talking to the other party in a humble tone.

She realized that her older brother was talking to the other person with a serious expression, and even glanced at her with a strong hint from time to time.
