The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

Chapter 784 His Majesty the Emperor’s Private Affairs

"But you, your purpose for coming to this banquet is not simple, right?"

Louise stared at Triss's calm face with interest, smiled and guessed:

"Maybe you regret it now, because you couldn't have expected that His Majesty the Emperor would appear at an ordinary dinner party, which completely ruined your original plan. Am I right?"

Triss was silent, because Louise basically guessed it right. If they hadn't seen each other for a long time, she even felt that she and Louise were still in the cooperative relationship at that time.

"You said you received an invitation from the host of the banquet. Could it be that George III invited you to the banquet?" She thought about it and retorted unwillingly.

Louise shook her head in amusement, gently clinked the wine glass with Tris, and said:

"We are not enemies, not before and certainly not now."

After taking a deep look at the familiar "witch" opposite, Triss took a sip of wine, feeling much more at ease, and then asked softly:

"Have you become a demigod?"

Louise asked in surprise: "Can you see that?"

Unexpectedly, Triss shook her head and replied: "It is precisely because you can't tell that you have become a demigod."

That's right! Louise nodded with satisfaction. With her current "equipment" and "personality", even if Triss was Chic's divine vessel, she would not have any advantage.

"I gained divinity by luck, but I also paid a heavy price for it." She responded simply.

Later, Louise went on to say: "Are you avenging Prince Edsac? Are you even willing to sacrifice yourself to Chic?"

Triss raised her head suddenly, her eyes suddenly became sharp, her body tensed up, and she asked coldly:

"How do you know?"

Since Louise dared to clarify everything directly, she naturally anticipated Triss's reaction. She smiled and reassured:

"Don't be nervous. Just like you, I am the number one target within the sect."

"But I have a good relationship with some members within the sect, so I can get some information in time, including your information of course."

Triss was still a little uneasy, so she asked:

"What is your purpose?"

Louise kept a kind smile and explained softly:

"I didn't even expect to meet you unexpectedly today, so what ulterior motives could I have?"

While Triss was deep in thought, Louise continued to smile slightly and said:

"Not only do I not have any ill intentions towards you, maybe I can also give you a gift."

"What gift?" Triss asked with a frown.

Louise smiled mysteriously, leaned closer and said:

"Do you still remember that ring?"

The memories buried deep in her heart suddenly came to mind. Triss' face darkened slightly, but she quickly regained her composure and said:

"Is that ring still in your hand?"

"No, that ring has been destroyed." Louise denied it flatly, but then she immediately said in a seductive tone: "I am referring to another ring, also from the sect, and the same as Chick.

related."

Triss's eyes suddenly froze and she said doubtfully:

"You gave yourself to Chic too?"

He really wanted me to do that, but more people didn't want to see that scene. Louise secretly cursed in her heart, and then said confidently:

"The ring is a trophy. Unfortunately, it is of little use to me, but it can help you get rid of the sect's tracking."

Triss was silent for a moment, obviously still a little doubtful, and said stubbornly:

"Now I can also avoid being discovered by people from the sect."

Even though she has become a vessel for divine descent, she cannot avoid being ignorant in certain aspects. This is Triss's greatest tragedy.

"The people who are following you now are just some low- and mid-level members of the sect, but what if one day a demigod takes action? Or even a higher-level being takes action?"

Louise expressed it very clearly, and at the same time she was not very merciful:

"You feel that you are fighting for your goals, but do you know that the freedom at this time does not come from your struggle, but from the ignorance within the sect and the higher-level game."

Triss was stunned for a moment when she was told that, and suddenly she felt a little confused. She raised her eyes with a slightly divergent look, frowned and asked:

"Then what is your identity? A person playing games, or a chess piece like me?"

"Is this important?" Louise asked with a smile: "If you want, I can expose your identity directly, and the extraordinary people at the banquet can subdue you in an instant."

Without waiting for Triss to eagerly retort, Louise continued:

"As I said just now, I received an invitation from the host of the banquet. I can also tell you that I am now a devout believer of the 'Goddess of the Night' and can easily meet the Archbishop."

Hearing this, Triss became more and more confused. She found that she subconsciously believed Louise's statement!

"Will the 'Night Sect' actually take in the 'Witch'?" She whispered softly in disbelief.

Louise wanted to say, "The Witch" is not important, I am!

Giving Triss some time to react, she turned around and took two steps back, standing on the same level as Triss, and said softly:

"After the banquet is over, you can choose whether to come to see me or not. I will give you the ring, because I really hope to see you causing some trouble for Chick."

Her eyes quickly returned to clarity, and she glanced sideways at Louise, who was in a relaxed and confident state. Triss did not continue the exchange because George III had already stood in the center of the banquet hall and seemed to have something to say.

At this time, George III had a smile on his face, and there was only a young man standing next to him.

"Who is that person next to him?" Louise asked softly.

Triss replied calmly: "The eldest son of George III and the future emperor."

Louise said "Oh" in her heart. It turned out to be the prince. No wonder he looked a bit like George III. She suddenly thought of an interesting thing. If George III succeeded in being promoted to "Black Emperor", then what would happen to the prince?

You don’t want to be a prince for the rest of your life!

The corners of her mouth were controlled not to rise upwards. Louise, like the people around her, looked at the emperor and prince in the center, pretending to be listening carefully.

George III seemed to be in a good mood. He talked a lot about Loen's recent changes and developments, and also praised certain high-ranking and close ministers. But these were obviously just a cover. Among the many praises, the only thing His Majesty the Emperor really wanted to say was

One thing:

"His Royal Highness is about to choose his princess!"

It turned out that this was a private matter that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to announce. Many nobles at the banquet had different expressions, but they soon applauded warmly in tacit agreement, and their free praises were showered on the smiling Majesty the Emperor.

In the corner, Louise and Triss looked at each other, their eyes full of weirdness.
