Chapter 107 106 Good Evening, Your Excellency the Count

Chapter 107 -106- Good evening, Your Excellency, Count

Accompanied by his attendants, Earl Tulip entered the hall of Drunken Dream Salon after changing into mage robes and wearing his own mask.

"Hey, isn't this our Lord Earl? You look really cool today."

"Haha, good evening, Your Excellency, you did a great job finding the little baby for me last time! Is she still there today?"

"Lord Earl! I raise a glass to you!"

"..."

Seeing Count Tulip entering the hall, the nobles gathered around and greeted him warmly.

Enjoying the flattery of the stars, Earl Tulip was in a happy mood and responded one after another:

"Haha, distinguished guest, you are also very chic today."

"Sorry, our little baby will only be received once, but...if you need it, I can arrange one of the same style for you."

"A toast! My dear friends!"

"..."

With Count Tulip's response, the atmosphere among the nobles became more heated.

Looking at the nobles gathered in the hall, Earl Tulip couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

Most of these nobles did not know his identity, they only knew that he liked to be called Earl.

But as the organizer and the one who personally sent out the invitations, he knew the details of everyone here!

ten years……

He has been in business for ten years!

90% of the noble families in Boulder came to attend the Drunken Dream Salon he held!

Although the vast majority of people here are not the ones in charge of the family, they are a very powerful force when united.

Many of them are the future heirs of various families!

He became friends with these nobles and held their hands.

And these are the connections and resources he has secretly accumulated!

There is a smile on Count Tulip's face behind his mask.

However, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Haha, brother.

Thanks to you, the whole of Boulder thinks that I, Anthony, am a loser...

However, I, a loser, will get back what belongs to me sooner or later!

The Earldom of Castres, and the Duchy of Bold.

Soon, they will all be mine!

Thinking of this, Earl Tulip quickly put away the sharpness in his eyes.

He raised his glass to everyone and drank the red wine with a smile.

There was a burst of cheers in the hall.

He made a slight gesture to signal everyone to quiet down, and then said gently:

"Everyone, Zuimeng Salon is about to begin. I'm going to inspect today's final goods first. We'll see you later."

"Haha! See you later!"

"I heard that today's finale is about extraordinary people?"

"Yes, if you embark on the path of extraordinaryness at a young age, you are considered a genius among ordinary people."

"I'm suddenly looking forward to tonight's salon even more."

The nobles were talking a lot.

Count Tulip smiled and walked through the hall towards the iron door at the end.

However, when he came to the iron gate, his brows quickly wrinkled.

"Aren't there people on guard duty today?"

Looking at the empty entrance, he turned around and asked, his voice very dissatisfied.

The attendant behind him was suddenly sweating profusely and said quickly:

"It should...should have been arranged? Maybe...maybe you have something to do and you have to leave now?"

Earl Tulip's frown deepened.

Although we know that there are five posts and one sentry every ten steps in the dungeon below, and even a mosquito will be discovered if it flies in, the identities of those members of the Blood Demon Order will not be revealed after all.

If any drunk noble accidentally walked into the wrong door, saw them in, and figured out their identity, it would eventually cause some trouble.

"Even if something happens, one person must be left on duty!"

"Check who is standing guard today and ask them to come see me later!"

He snorted coldly and said.

After saying that, he pushed open the iron door and walked in alone.

Entering the underground corridor, the vision quickly dimmed.

However, Earl Tulip has long been used to it.

In the cells on both sides of the corridor, those tonight's sacrifices were still sleeping soundly, and it was extremely quiet.

He was not surprised.

The effects of the medicine have not worn off on these girls yet, and the deeper they sleep now, the more energy they will have in a while.

And one of the purposes of his coming down to inspect the goods was to help them unlock the effects of the medicine.

"It's almost time. Give them the energy potion to wake them up. In a moment... it will be their stage."

Earl Tulip ordered to the Blood Demon cultists standing guard.

However, after listening to his words, the Blood Demon cultists did not respond.

Earl Tulip, who was about to continue walking inside, suddenly stopped.

He turned around and looked at the Blood Demon Cultist he had just ordered, frowning slightly:

"Why are you still standing there? Didn't you hear what I said?"

The Blood Demon Cultist slowly turned around and did not answer. Instead, he saluted him and said in a dull voice without emotion:

"My lord, the master...is waiting for you in the study."

"Huh? The high priest came quite early today."

Earl Tulip was a little surprised.

He nodded slightly, said "Remember what I said", and then walked towards the study deep in the corridor.

The dungeon was particularly quiet today.

Not only the sleeping girl, but also the Blood Demon cultists standing guard were more silent than before.

They stood there one by one, with standard postures, like statues.

This surprised Earl Tulip.

What happened to these lazy guys today?

Did they do something wrong and angered the high priest again?

Muttering in his heart, he came to the study.

Two forbidden blood servants of the first level of the stars bowed stiffly and opened the door.

Count Tulip walked in casually, as if he was going home.

As he entered the study, the two blood servants closed the door again.

Count Tulip didn't care.

He and the high priest discussed things, and he didn't like to be heard by others, even blood servants.

Scanning the study, Count Tulip looked for the figure of the high priest.

However, after a round, he didn't see a shadow.

Instead, he saw that the rotatable alchemy chair behind the desk changed direction and faced the bookshelf.

The high backrest blocked everything, and only the sound of pages turning could be heard.

Count Tulip was immediately happy.

No wonder he couldn't find anyone, it turned out that someone was sitting on the chair!

Although I wanted to complain a long time ago, the high priest of the Blood Demon Cult was not tall and usually hunched over. Now he was sitting on his study chair, and I couldn't even see his head from behind!

"Hehe, Your Excellency the High Priest, when did you become interested in my collection of magic books?"

Count Tulip took off his mask and put it on the shelf, smiling.

Hearing his voice, the sound of turning pages stopped.

The study chair slowly turned and came to the front.

A silver-haired girl in a maid's uniform appeared in front of Count Tulip.

She sat on the chair, holding a stack of parchment scrolls in her hands, and her red-gold eyes were full of playfulness:

"Good evening, Your Excellency the Earl."

Count Tulip was stunned.

Sure enough... there is no time to add more... it's hard to bear.
