Chapter 231 Leonard: The clown is actually me!
Leonard stayed where he was. At this moment, he seemed to feel like a clown.
What kind of plot development is this?
This immortal witch let her go and is targeting Hastur again?
How long has it been since Hastur fell under the charm of the witch?
You can't blame Hastur for his weak resistance. He was easily defeated by the witch in just a few words.
Moreover, Hastur's face is indeed very attractive, as well as his slender figure and extraordinary discussion, and he can also write poetry.
No, I have to remind Hastur to stay away from this witch!
This seemingly innocent girl in front of me is a terrifying existence that can break bones and suck out marrow!
Leonard thought a lot at this moment. He put his arm around Hastur's shoulders, pretending to be angry, and wanted to drag him out of the bar, and then look for an opportunity to tell him about the true face of Miss Serafina. .
He pulled hard, but hey, there was no drag. Hastur was still sitting in his seat, looking at him curiously.
"Leonard, don't be so nervous. Miss Serafina just said this in front of you on purpose."
Hastur smiled to calm Leonard down and motioned for him to drink a glass of wine before talking.
"Hasta, this is not a question of truth or lie. She simply..."
Leonard wanted to say it, but when he caught a glimpse of Serafina's smiling eyes, he swallowed what he wanted to say.
"Don't worry, Miss Serafina came here tonight just to have something to do with me, and she doesn't want to settle the past love-hate entanglements with you."
Hastur comforted Leonard again, telling him not to worry too much.
"What, she came to see you?"
Leonard was confused again. He could no longer figure out what was going on.
"I happen to know her daughter. She just came to give me something for someone else."
Hastur said and looked at Serafina, "Is that so, Miss Serafina?"
"daughter?!"
Leonard's head was hit with a heavy hammer again, and the ageless witch in front of him actually had a daughter!
And Hastur also knows the other party’s daughter!
This relationship is too complicated!
Wait, wasn’t she the mother of a friend’s friend who fell in love with her in the first place?
Leonard's mouth twitched, he really wanted to slap himself.
Only now did he understand why Hastur was acting strangely about his relationship with Seraphina, as if he was suppressing something.
Hasta must be embarrassed to tell himself that the other party is already a wife with a daughter!
"Of course, I didn't mean to catch some ruthless man."
Serafina glanced at Leonard, who had a complicated look on his face, chuckled, and handed Hastur a piece of paper filled with content. On it was written the potion formula from Sequence 8 to Sequence 5 of the Witch Path.
"Miss Serafina, please make this trip yourself. It's really hard work."
Hastur took the paper and put it directly into his pocket.
"Someone will always have to pay the price for their recklessness. I just hope it won't happen again."
After saying that, Serafina drank the wine in the glass, then stood up and left.
After her figure left the bar, Leonard finally reacted to the shock. He stood up, put his hands on Hastur's shoulders, and stared directly at Hastur.
"Hasta, should you give me an explanation?"
"What explanation?"
"When did your relationship with that ageless...Miss Serafina become so good?"
"She is Mrs. Gemani's mother. I only found out about this not long ago."
"All her daughters are married?"
Leonard was stunned for a moment. Although he had expected it, he still couldn't bear it when he heard that the ageless witch was already a grandmother-level figure.
He actually fell in love with a grandmother-level woman at that time, and even considered getting married and settling down...
"Yes, Leonard, you have really good taste, and Miss Serafina's daughter is also very beautiful."
"..."
Leonard released his hands holding Hastur's shoulders and sat blankly in his seat, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, he slapped himself, drank a glass of wine, and asked the bartender to bring it over.
Hasta thought for a moment and decided not to stimulate Leonard for the time being. The stimulation he received tonight would probably be something he would never forget.
Next, there was no more conversation between the two people, and they each drank their own wine.
Hasta drank slowly and tasted every different kind of wine here, and Leonard started drinking Southwell beer in large glasses.
At around 11 o'clock in the evening, Leonard, who was already smelling of alcohol, looked at Hasta and said, "Hasta, tell me honestly, have you known Serafina's true identity for a long time?"
Hasta raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Are you referring to the fact that Miss Serafina is Mrs. Germani's mother?"
"..."
Leonard was choked on what he wanted to ask again. He paused for two or three seconds, waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, I just feel a little strange."
"I'm also a little surprised. I'm afraid the breakup between you and Miss Serafina wasn't that simple, right?"
"..."
Leonard turned sideways, leaving Hastur with a trace of his back, and said in a low voice: "It's all gone. The past is like flowers. The flowers fly and the flowers wither. They can't be undone."
Seeing Leonard like this, Hasta couldn't help but stimulate him again, "Leonard, you have a sense of vicissitudes and stories, which makes it easy for girls to like you. Miss Seraphina fell in love with you because of this, right?"
"..."
Leonard shuddered immediately, quickly picked up the wine glass, and shouted loudly: "Drink!"
It was almost one o'clock in the morning when Leonard staggered to get up and leave.
Leonard, who was already eight points drunk, could no longer remember to pay the bill. Hasta, who had eaten melon all night, could only help pay, including the money for Seraphina's glass of wine.
"Can you take a car back by yourself?"
Hasta was a little worried about Leonard's condition tonight. He drank one glass after another just now, and went to the bathroom four times.
"It's okay, I, cough... know the way."
Leonard obviously overestimated his alcohol tolerance. Hasta stopped a car and asked his coachman to take Leonard back to St. Samuel Church, and took the stopped carriage home.
In the carriage, Leonard opened the carriage curtain, feeling the cold wind in the early morning, and gradually recovered from his drunken state.
Arriving near St. Samuel's Church, he gave the coachman a tip of 1 gold pound, and then staggered back to his residence.
As soon as he got home, Leonard threw himself on the bed and began to shout: "Old man, shouldn't you answer my doubts tonight?"
"Hehe, aren't you still alive? Why are you so anxious to call me for help?"
"That's the immortal witch. I called you to give you enough time to prepare."
"You are obviously scared."
"...I am only Sequence 7. Of course I will be nervous when facing an immortal witch."
"Isn't your friend Hastur always calm? Why don't you learn from him?"
When mentioning Hastur, Leonard sobered up a little and said seriously: "Do you think Hastur knows the true identity of the immortal witch Seraphina? ? "
"Don't you already have the answer in your heart?"
"Alas."
Leonard sighed, "I didn't expect Hastur to be so calm in front of an immortal witch. Is he also a member of the witch sect?"
After saying that, he laughed, "You know what, if Hastur becomes a witch, her appearance is definitely not inferior to that immortal witch."
"Then, you want to fall in love again?"
The sarcastic laughter made Leonard's face stern, "I'm not as dirty as you think!"
"How do you know that the immortal witch didn't turn from a man into a witch because of taking magic potion?"
"..."
Leonard's face darkened, and he really didn't want to talk about this topic.
"What better way do I have to deal with Ince Zangwill?"
"Where you are is your best helper."
"Besides that?"
"Do you want to seek revenge on a Sequence 4 Night Watchman alone?"
"Ahem, I just want to ask."
"Don't dream."
"... Old man, you are so ruthless."
"Don't blame me for not reminding you. When you notice Ince Zangwill, 008 will also notice you."
"I understand."
...
The next day, Leonard got up and asked for half a day off, and went to the West District to find Klein.
His ability alone is limited, and he needs a suitable helper.
When Klein knew Leonard's intention, Klein asked him not to speak for the time being.
After dealing with Ince Zangwill and 008 in Tingen last time, Klein has mastered some corresponding extraordinary knowledge.
Without the protection of secrecy, every word he and Leonard said may be known to 008.
It is impossible to make plans in advance. It is difficult for them to hide 008's ability.
"Let's go to St. Samuel Church to discuss the relevant matters."
Klein and Leonard took a carriage back to St. Samuel Church.
The two of them directly explained the matter about Ince Zangwill to the Archbishop guarding the church, Anthony Stevenson.
Archbishop Anthony understood and led them to a prayer room, indicating that they could speak freely.
"It's like this. I heard from a friend that Ince Zangwill had a relationship with Prince Edessak, and even secretly arranged coincidences for Prince Edessak many times."
Leonard told all the information he heard from Hasta.
"It must be him!" Klein suddenly had a spiritual premonition.
"Prince Edessak is a member of the royal family. If there is no evidence, you can't do anything casually." Archbishop Anthony reminded them.
Leonard volunteered: "I want to contact Prince Edessak personally and find Ince Zangwill."
"This is very dangerous."
Klein disagreed with Leonard's risky behavior. 008's ability to arrange coincidences is very terrible, and he can even use such a dirty trick as stomachache.
"Someone has to go and solve this matter. I am a member of the Red Gloves Team. The more dangerous it is, the more I have to face the challenge head-on."
"But..."
Klein wanted to persuade him a few more times, but was stopped by Archbishop Anthony. He looked at Leonard with admiration, and then slowly said: "Since the church has sealed 008 before, it naturally knows how to avoid its prying. If it wants to arrange a script for a person, it also needs to meet certain prerequisites, and it can't do it as it pleases."
