Your notoriety is known to everyone

Chapter 9 Flexible moral bottom line

The sky in the early morning showed a light blue hue. The sun covered by clouds and fog had not yet fully appeared, and only dim light penetrated the clouds and shrouded it.

These lights shine on the ground, outlining the busy scene in front of the Earl's Mansion. The servants opened the door early and waited for the owner of the mansion to return home.

Rogers stood guard outside the door, yawning uncontrollably. He had been sorting out the plot of the game in his mind last night, speculating on the scope of the butterfly effect, and sorting out what key information could be used. He had been working all night. Close your eyes.

Alina stood beside him dignifiedly and beautifully. Her long hair, as white as snow, was not tied up like yesterday. Instead, it hung down to her waist like fine silk. The morning breeze blew her hair gently, making it look so beautiful. It dances gently.

Coupled with a plain and elegant white dress and an elegant and upright figure, she is like a little fairy walking out of an oil painting. Even the light is particularly fond of her.

However, the fairy had a sullen expression on her face at this time, and from time to time she would glance at Luo Gesi beside her with cold eyes.

"As long as you are willing to help me get through the trial before me, I will show you a big treasure tonight. This is something that has never appeared in the world. It will definitely satisfy your curiosity."

Luo Gesi looked behind him at the servants of the mansion who were all ready for the reception ceremony, and turned back to speak to Alina.

He originally wanted to try to use the special code of ignorance to erase Elena's memory, but found that the activation conditions for this special code required huge magic power. Even after being promoted to bronze, it could only make people forget something temporarily for a few seconds.

What's more, he is still a black iron at present, so he gave up this plan and turned to appease his fiancée.

Rogers didn't want to be locked in the Star Observation Tower by the angry Earl. He still had many plans waiting for him to make, so he hoped that Alina could help mediate.

After all, the future daughter-in-law's plea should be of some use.

"I'm sad, not because of your fraudulent behavior against me, but because I can no longer trust you." Alina said with a cold face, moving her eyes in the opposite direction to Luo Gesi.

Ever since the weird sacrifice ceremony held in Logos yesterday, Alina discovered that her special prophecy had completely lost its effect on this guy.

She was completely unsure whether what came out of that sinister mouth was true or false.

What's more serious is that all futures related to Logos seem to be shrouded in an impenetrable fog.

As I interacted with Logos, my future became a little blurry.

The more Alina thought about it, the more she felt that this hateful guy must be targeting her.

Seeing this, Luo Gesi shook his head and sighed. The boat of friendship capsized.

On the road far in front of the door, the clatter of horse hooves gradually became clearer, followed by bursts of smoke.

When the heavy iron hooves came into contact with the ground, they made a low metallic collision sound. With stability and strength, they intertwined rhythmically to form a unique sound.

The sun also broke through the obstacles at this moment and fell on the armors of several knights, making them shine with a metallic luster. The tall figure was getting closer and closer.

When the well-trained knights came to the gate, they all got off their horses and beat their chests in greeting to Luo Gesi:
"Follow Breed's will!"

Logos looked at the leader closest to him. He had thick but lustrous crimson curly hair, and the hair was curled meticulously on his head.

His eyebrows are thick and powerful, his eyes are hidden in a pair of deep eye sockets, and the muscle outline of the entire face is strong and powerful, giving people a sense of inviolability and determination.

Logos knew him. He was a decorated knight named Rekus and the leader of the Earl's Guards Knights, who belonged to his own family.

"According to the Earl's will, I will escort the young master to the Star Observation Tower to rest." Rekus said solemnly after saluting.

"Why?" Rogers looked confused.

"The Earl has heard about the young master's deeds yesterday. He said he was afraid that he would lose his temper in front of Earl Devin, and he was even more afraid that he would lose control of himself and kill his only heir by mistake." Rekus repeated in a serious manner.

"I can explain..." Rogers looked at Rekus's rigid expression, shrugged helplessly, gave Alina an "I believe you" look, and then followed Rekus towards the mansion. The star observation tower in the distance is gone.Shortly after Rogers left, a motorcade slowly approached.

At the head of the motorcade were two majestic and magical silver horses, with manes made of blue and purple intertwined like a waterfall.

Each of the two horses sat a middle-aged man. They were wearing thick hunting attire, and their robes were stained with traces of mud, branches and other plants.

The visitors were none other than Earl Braid and Earl Devin, who had returned from hunting together.

Behind them were trailers containing various rare birds and animals hunted this time.

"Oh! My dear Alina! First of all, please forgive your father's slovenly appearance. Your mother was a little delayed because of the carriage ride. I believe she will be here soon."

Earl Devin, who was known for his gentleness towards others, jumped off his horse first and walked towards his daughter with a smile.

"Did you enjoy playing with Rogers? He didn't do anything rude to you, right?" Earl Breed also dismounted and walked over, asking with a smile on his lips.

Elena lightly lifted her skirt and bowed to the two earls as a lady. She raised her head and looked at Earl Breed who was asking the question. The smile made her feel slightly uncomfortable.

The smile that Rogers wore when he deceived her yesterday was almost exactly the same as the expression on Earl Breed's face at this moment. Sure enough, the father was the same as the heir.

"he……"

Just when Alina was about to remove those unspeakable secrets and reveal all of Rogers' rude behavior, she suddenly felt a burning pain in her abdomen.

Because Luo Gesi answered her question yesterday, according to the provisions of the contract, Alina must give Luo Gesi help that does not violate her moral bottom line.

But the behavior of "deception" should be regarded as unethical.

Unfortunately, what Elina didn't understand was that the moral bottom line marked in the contract was not the morality recognized by secular public opinion, but what Luo Gesi believed.

The poor girl has not yet figured out how fate has played a trick on her. Only the pain in her abdomen reminds her that she has been tricked again this time.

"Lord Rogers has excellent courtesy and grace. He has not behaved in any disrespectful manner, nor has he done anything bad to me. I enjoy his company very much."

Alina reached out to cover her lower abdomen where the burning pain was slowly dissipating, and answered with a slightly aggrieved tone.

Earl Devin looked at his daughter's slightly frowned brows, her subconscious movements of holding her belly, and her obviously insincere words, and instantly imagined various plots that were difficult for him to accept.

There seemed to be a blazing flame in his amber pupils, and the frown lines between his brows highlighted the anger in his eyes. The airflow around him seemed to be shocked by his sudden burst of anger, causing a brief stagnation. .

When the surrounding servants saw this, they all lowered their heads. At this time, Earl Devin was not even remotely gentle.

The smile at the corner of Earl Breed's mouth slowly disappeared, and his face gradually darkened. He knew that his son's character was average, but he never thought that he was so bad!

"Logos!!!"

A roar containing majestic anger spread from the door of the Earl's Mansion.

Rogers, who had just arrived at the Star Observation Tower, couldn't help but shrink his neck instinctively. He could hear that it was his father's voice.

"It shouldn't be, the contract has not expired..."

he murmured in confusion.
