Song of Time - Dusk Awakening Verse - Chapter 58
Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
At sunset, the dinner party began with the speech of Lord Sistine.
This 36-year-old new aristocrat had something pleasing: a tall figure, strong muscles, a vigorous smile on his sculptural face at any time, and his deep eyes, with a magnetic subwoofer, and very rare aqua long hair that was enough to attract most women in the South Island…It could be considered the symbol of some kind of holy being’s arriving at the mortal realm for those who believed in Sea God.
Among the golden sunset which was about to leave, the vigorous candidate wore a silver gem robe with the sect badge. He stood straight on the high platform, with a perfect smile as usual, and elegantly saluted, “Ladies and gentlemen…At this wonderful twilight, we gather again and praise the gift of our master, Sea God Nadini! And let us say thank you to Mr. Ke, for your honor, and Mrs. Lianna, for keeping your beauty…”
“On this special day, we won the primary election, which is beyond doubt. I have never been confused about it. The times have changed. Those old, old aristocrats can no longer lead our people. We need to create a new mind and a new body to carry out our will, spread the glory of our master, and welcome the final glory! “
“Today is just a trivial beginning. We have to unite and integrate all our hearts, all our strength, and all our quiet good wishes here! And with the support of these countless wills, we will be invincible and win the final victory of this election! May the goddess bless us! May goddess protect the world! “
“Goddess bless!” Under the stage, thunderous applause broke out. The man saluted again in a burst of praise. Following the guidance of the count, he came to the banquet and shook hands with several guests who had not yet met. They greeted each other warmly.
The prince still stayed in the outermost remote corner. He had no good impression of this hypocritical aristocratic official, so he didn’t even raise his eyelids to look at him. However, his suit was unique among all the women in the hall. Soon, the man noticed it and slowly walked towards him with a little interest.
“This is Miss Wendy from Wong…This is Lord Malen Sistine. “The host gave a brief introduction to the two people they had never seen each other before. Then he stood aside and did not say a word.
“Nice to meet you, beautiful lady. Nice to meet you here…” The man reached out his hand and wanted to give her a kiss, but she just touched his chest and bowed her head slightly. She gave him a Katrina’s salute, which made him a little embarrassed. He smiled and touched the tip of his nose. Then he continued to flatter her with familiarity, “I have always been longing for the long culture of Wong, but I’m too busy to see the capital. But today I met you, so I made up my mind that I must go to the capital to see what kind of magical country it is to produce such a peerless beauty like you. “
“I’m flattered…” Shane replied perfunctorily in a neutral voice, but still with a cold face.
As a thick-skinned man in such kind of social activities, of course, Lord Sistine didn’t think it was a bad idea. He changed the topic with a laugh and said, “Oh, by the way, speaking of the capital, there is a strange thing these days. It is said that the missing Princess of your country 8 years ago was found. It is said that the so-called Miss. Misfortune had caused a great disturbance in the past…
“What?” Shane didn’t know what to do when he heard the news. It was like a dull thunder, which made Shane lose half of his soul. His uncontrollable scream interrupted the conversation of the other party, and also attracted the attention of everyone around. Fortunately, with the help of the illusion, the two grand aristocrats who were good at observing people’s expressions did not see any clues from his stiff expression.
“……Miss Wendy, are you okay? “The man was also startled by the sudden scream. He didn’t know why a gossip would make the other party so panic, but he still asked considerately in a soft voice and reached out his hand, pretending to hold her.
The prince stood there, completely unaware of his question. His eyes were unfocused and only vacant. Jin Yuan was also shocked by the news. Frowning, when he saw what Lord Sistine did, he stood in front of Shane and asked calmly, “Sir, is the news accurate? Where did you hear that? “
Seeing the young man, who seemed to be a bodyguard, walked up to him and asked him questions regardless of his identity, Lord Sistine was very unhappy. However, he still maintained a decent smile and withdrew his hand. As if he didn’t care about it, he gently stroked the sapphire chest buckle and said, “About this…I heard it from hearsay, but I don’t know much about it…If you want to know more details, you can go to the major newspapers and ask for information. I’m sure you will find something. “
After saying that, he looked at the mysterious female warrior of the eastern empire. The woman’s still stiff expression made him feel like being poured cold water and have no interest to ask more. He lost interest and looked at the count. After receiving permission, he greeted politely and walked to the next visitor.
The spear guard didn’t wake Shane up from the shock until he saw the two of them go far away. The prince trembled with cold reflexively. He held the square table and gritted his teeth. This incredible news made him panic. How could his sister, who had been living in seclusion in the study, be found? Eight years had passed, how could she be easily recognized?[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
It must be a rumor! It must be a rumor! He stubbornly insisted on his own judgment. With his sharp eyes hidden behind the illusion, he glanced at the noisy party, as if everyone could be the creator of the rumor and the enemy in his heart. “When I find out who is spreading the rumor…Humph!” At this moment, he was in no mood to care about anything else. Without saying anything, he grabbed Jin Yuan’s hands. Without waiting for the other to persuade him, he ran a few steps into the forest under the cover of the tree. In a flash, he disappeared in the slowly descending night.
Not far from the countdown, there was a small newspaper office. The closed-door was hung with colorful neon lights, constantly flickering in the night, shining on the two quiet people at the street corner, as if they were smeared with vulgar paint randomly.
The bright light made Shane’s face gloomy. Looking at the weekly magazine in his hand, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. The newspaper was not very thick. It only had a few pages. On the front page, there was a colorful photo of a luxury cruise ship which said, “Ms. Lovina arrived at the White-Cloud Harbor this morning and will release the official performance soon!” Then there was a lot of compliments.
However, the prince’s attention was not on the sensational news, which almost occupied the whole page. He stared at the bottom row of the newspaper, which was like a fly’s head, and read it word by word, “According to this news, a large number of rumors have appeared in the capital city of Wong. The mysterious disappearance of the evil woman eight years ago has caused a certain degree of panic. The royal family did not officially announce this. According to relevant sources, this rumor was not groundless. How did the fairy disappear and why did she appear again? All the evidence were pointing to the mysterious Priest who had hosted the Apocalypse ceremony. Would he reappear and explain in front of the world? What will happen next? We will keep an eye on it…”
These blurred printing words almost did not say any useful information. Still, just the word “Fairy” had already stung the prince’s eyelids. He gritted his teeth, but the corners of his mouth could not help twitching slightly.
A witch! Miss.Misfortune! The last time this damn word appeared in front of him was in the chaos eight years ago…At that time, he had almost no room for resistance against what had happened. After he had tried his best to send his sister out of the Imperial Palace, he had thought that he could make her safely avoid the disturbance, but he did not expect that…
“Your Highness…” The spear guard murmured in a low voice. His face was as dark as water. He cautiously glanced at the crowd gathering on the street again and warned, “This is not a place to stay for a long time…”
It was not good to stay here for too long…Right! We couldn’t waste any more time. We should go back as soon as possible! The prince clenched the newspaper and grabbed Jin Yuan. He opened the phantom and ran towards the alley. After turning several crossroads surrounded by colorful lights, the two stopped in the depths of the dark stone alley.
After making sure that she was safe, Jin Yuan walked slowly to Shane with the pistol stick around his waist. Neither of them made any sound. In the darkness, only the two pairs of clear eyes could be seen clearly. One was as sharp as lightning, and the other was as deep as the sea. Both of them were faint with uncontrollable flames.
After a long silence, the prince suppressed his manic anger and asked in a low voice, “When is the latest flight back? “
“It should be around 10 o’clock tomorrow morning…The flight to the capital has always been ho-… I’m afraid the remaining tickets have been sold out at this moment… “The spear guard replied without hesitation.
“Then I won’t buy it…” Shane’s illusion technique enabled him to dodge the attacks easily and skillfully. He didn’t care at all. He had been in extreme shock just now, thinking about how to return to the imperial capital and how to protect his sister. Now that he had calmed down, he began to worry about the investigation task.
He was about to make a breakthrough, but he had to give up because of this sudden incident, which made him somewhat unwilling. However, there were priorities. Moreover, he wouldn’t run away from this large mansion. As long as he could stabilize the situation in the capital city, it wouldn’t be too late to come back and investigate
While the prince was calculating, as if he could read his mind, Jin Yuan suddenly said, “Why don’t you let me stay and continue to inquire…”
Let you stay? Shane turned his head in surprise and looked at the calm and unchanged green eyes, feeling a little helpless. Well…Jin Yuan had followed his own orders to save her out of the palace at that time. Although there was no evidence left on the surface, it was still hard to guarantee that he would be caught at the crucial moment…
At this moment, he didn’t know what was going on in the capital city. He hesitated for a moment and then heard Jin Yuan say in a low voice, “With my identity, even if I return to the capital city, it won’t bring any benefits. Perhaps I will cause gossip. Why don’t we just wait here for a few days…According to Elder Moreydrea, the target will appear soon. I want to confirm the effectiveness of the information first and make a decision after you come back. “
It was a good arrangement but leave Jin Yuan alone in this strange and dangerous South Island. How could Shane rest assured? He lowered his head and thought for a long time. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him. He grabbed Jin Yuan and strode away.
The two of them leaned against the wall all the way east, avoiding several heavily guarded mansion buildings. From the path to the edge of the central area, they saw a pavilion manor with an eastern aura in front of them. The ebony arch with a wind lamp was perfectly shaped, and the waterside pavilion was also a standard building. Unfortunately, the gold carvings and painted porcelain paintings everywhere destroyed the atmosphere of the elegant for no reason.
“Isn’t this…” The spear guard frowned and looked at the vulgar golden arch in front of him. Just as he spoke three words, he saw a window suddenly open on the main building like a brick and wood castle.
Wrapped in a loose bath towel and wrapped in a soft cloth bag, the young man’s face was flushed with mist as if he had just finished bathing. He sniffed suspiciously in the wind and smelled hard. In the twinkling of an eye, he saw his goddess standing in front of the door. He rubbed his eyes in disbelief and then cried out and rushed back to the room to change his clothes.
“Miss Wendy! Please wait a moment! Wait a moment! I’m really sorry! It’s so impolite! “A sharp roar came from afar in the room. Who didn’t know him might think that he had encountered a dangerous emergency.
The prince stood still calmly. He had long been used to the habit of the local tycoon shouting anytime. He looked at the colorful street lamps instantly lit up in the courtyard and saw a young man running towards him in a tight robe, as if he was afraid that he would run away. A meaningful smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
“Ronnie Weston, I’ve been bothered by you for so long. It’s time for me to charge you…”[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
