Mystery: Paradox Path

"Audrey, I heard that your father was very strict with you a few days ago. Is it really alright for you to come to the dance as soon as you relax? I remember you don't like dances, right?"

Viscount Grelint politely kissed the back of Audrey's hand and asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry, my dad didn't mean to interfere with my social interactions. I just didn't dare to go out because I was frightened by Qilingus' assassination."

Audrey shook her head gently. She, who had been promoted to a mind reader, could easily see that Viscount Grelint was worried about her father's censure at this time.

Although he is an independent aristocrat with healthy finances, he is still a little guilty compared to Earl Hall, the big banker.

"That's good, by the way, what's the matter with this time?" Viscount Grelint relaxed a lot when he saw Audrey's calm tone, but also guessed that Audrey was coming for something. Participate in misunderstandings.

In order not to make the lady face the embarrassment of needing to take the initiative to make a request, Viscount Grelint, who is well versed in social skills, immediately handed over the words.

"I'm going to borrow the piano room from you. I have a friend who plans to learn the piano." Audrey blinked cutely, showing an apologetic look. Grelint and Audrey have known each other for some years. When she showed such an expression, she immediately had a bad premonition in her heart, and said nervously:

"Can you tell me who that friend is?"

"Snow, Snow von Penredax." Audrey called out Mr. Demon's name with laughter, and then said obediently:

"Grillint, you've been chatting with me for too long, it's time to entertain other guests."

As she said that, Audrey turned around lightly, took skilled social steps, and began to greet the nobles she knew, leaving only Viscount Grelint, who maintained a stiff social smile, as if struck by lightning. as stiff in place.

...

"I should be the last one here. Why haven't I seen Mr. Devil yet? Didn't Mr. Devil get today's invitation?" Audrey walked on the dance floor and danced with Grelint, the "master". After an opening dance, he began to patrol the living room, but he did not find Mr. Devil.

Although there was no actual face-to-face contact, Audrey felt that with the audience's ability, she should be able to find the legendary handsome "Veterin Prince" who did not look like a human being.

But just when Audrey suspected that Mr. Devil was in a hurry and didn't get the invitation, he suddenly found a person coming not far away. Before she could recall who this person was, she heard the other person's color suddenly faded. ...No, it's three-dimensional like a sketch suddenly dyed in color.

The passers-by who were originally inconspicuous suddenly became the focus of attention of the audience. This strong contrast made Audrey almost unable to maintain the audience state.

"Good afternoon, Miss Hall."

"Evil... Mr. Penredax?" Audrey's good aristocratic education made her come back to her senses quickly, instead of calling out the slightly rude "devil", she used the other party's surname as her name.

"It's me, the toughest diamond lady in Backlund." Snow said in a slightly teasing tone. Audrey wanted to puff up her cheeks to express her dissatisfaction, but considering that this is a social occasion, she should keep it up. With an aristocratic smile, he said softly:

"Mr. Pandre Dax, if you plan to use the title, please use the recognized 'dazzling gem', not some 'hard diamond'."

"You can call me Snow. Besides, Miss Justice, you can speak with confidence. No one will notice us at the meeting now. For them, we are just passersby."

Snow showed a charming smile, and Audrey glanced around suspiciously, and found that the sights that were focused on her seemed to really disappear, even if there were occasional glances,

It will basically not stay on her body, which is simply unimaginable in the past.

"What kind of extraordinary ability is this?" Audrey envied this kind of power and couldn't help but ask.

"Audience pathway, as long as you become a hypnotist of Sequence Six, you can use this ability." Snow showed eight teeth and smiled brightly.

Hearing that it was her path, Audrey immediately became happy, but then she remembered that she had just been promoted to Sequence Eight, so she couldn't help calming herself down. The voice said:

"Will no one find out if we leave now? Well, including my maid?"

"No, before I remove my ability, everyone in the venue will temporarily forget your existence. As for your maid, she will probably instinctively feel that you have been in the venue all the time. Well, it seems like it was added to you before. That ability is about the same, except that it was originally intended to make all those who try to read your mind treat you as an 'innocent little girl', but now it is to make all those present who remember you treat you as an 'irrelevant passerby' , Of course, because doing so needs to cover the entire dance venue, the maintenance time is not too frequent, about two hours is the limit - provided that you do not pray to a certain god in the process..." Snow briefly introduced After taking a look at his abilities, he did not forget to tease the rash Miss Justice.

"I've already apologized!" Audrey muttered in her heart, puffing out her cheeks in dissatisfaction. Although she was expressing her dissatisfaction with Mr. Devil's careful eyes, her eyes were very bright.

Although she has become an Extraordinary, her ability of the audience pathway is only limited to observation. Now this kind of behavior of using Extraordinary abilities to make her life easier is what the Extraordinary in her dreams should do.

"Then what are you waiting for... I mean, Viscount Grelint and I borrowed the piano room, let's go now." Audrey, who almost exposed her own nature, forcibly maintained the demeanor of a noble lady, Snow But he smiled lightly:

"You can relax a little bit. The audience channel has a very important precaution, which is to remember the real you. If you wear the mask for too long, it is easy to take it off. If you keep yourself in the audience's position, you will gradually become Being indifferent and revealing your true nature occasionally helps you maintain your ego."

"Thank you for your reminder." Audrey knew that this was a very precious act, and immediately thanked her sincerely.

Snow heard the words, but just shook his head and showed a moving smile: "This is a return gift for your sweet smile."

"Ah, Mr. Devil is very good, no wonder he has become a famous social grass in Backlund..." Audrey couldn't help but think of being rude, but then it sounded that Mr. Devil might also be the audience channel, and immediately restrained his emotions, with He went to the piano room of Viscount Grelint's house...

...

"Hey, I seem to have forgotten something? Why was I worried before?" Viscount Grelint, who had been staring at Audrey, worried that she would be abducted by a bad man, patted his head, and suddenly fell into confusion...
