Chapter 767 Visitor in the night

Chapter 767 Visitor in the night

When Duke Yuletide was finished talking to me, I was escorted back to the same room as before.

The two maids were still there as if they were waiting to serve me.

They just stood there at attention as if they were waiting to cater to my every whim, but I could tell that there was a trace of disdain that was in their voice. It seemed that before I had arrived, there was someone that had told these maids some things.

If I had to guess, it was most likely the two black clothed figures that had escorted me back.

I could see that as they were leaving, they said a few things to the maids.

The way that they spoke to the maids showed that there was some kind of connection between them, as if they already knew each other before this.

At the same time, it was the kind of ambiguous connection that went beyond just being friends.

If I had to guess, the two of them were most likely intimate with these two maids.

That might be the reason why these two maids had even been chosen to serve me in the first place.

They were most likely using me to raise their own position, only to find that it might not be useful at all since I didn't have any power at all. They most likely found out that I was just being used by Duke Yuletide, so they were looking at me with disdain.

Though in reality, this was all just a ruse, so I didn't care what they thought.

Once the two black clothed figures left, the two maids turned back to me as if they were prepared to serve me.

However, I wasn't in the mood to entertain them, so I sent the two of them away.

The two of them didn't seem to mind.

In fact, they even seemed happy to leave.

It was Shadow Five.

After she arrived, she shook her head at me and brought a finger up to her lip as if she wanted me to keep quiet.

I was confused why she was acting this way, but I was sure that she had her own reasons, so I stayed quiet.

During this, she moved around the room and placed what seemed to be a few pieces of metal on the walls around us. Only after she finished putting these things on the wall did she say, "Alright, we can talk now. Tell me everything that happened."

I had questions of my own that I wanted to ask her, but hearing the urgency in her voice, I just told her about everything that happened.

When I finished, I asked her, "What is the fourth prince planning on doing?"

Shadow Five didn't answer right away as she just stood there in silence for a bit.

But then she suddenly said, "Perfect, this is going exactly as his highness planned."

I was surprised to hear this, but I didn't get to ask any other questions as Shadow Five suddenly said, "Just keep playing along as I report everything back. I'll have more information for you tomorrow."

Then before I could say anything, she suddenly went to take those pieces of metal off the wall.

I didn't know what those pieces of metal did, but I was certain that it was used to keep others from hearing us. So as she was taking them down, I didn't dare talk out of fear that I would give up her position.

But I still looked at her with a look that made it clear that I had questions for her.

It was just too bad that Shadow Five wasn't in any mood to listen to me.

She disappeared as quickly as she appeared, so the only thing that I could do once she was gone was give a sigh of disappointment.

I would have to wait until tomorrow like she said.
