Chapter 84 - News About Louis The Butler

The two boys were panting when they reached Bishop Darcy's room. Emery cursed that weak body and without an ounce of strength he now had, he felt tired and weak with just a little run.

Ironically he didn't feel weak with bed exercises, but when it came to exerting the slightest physical effort outside of bed, he felt like he was dying at any moment.

Emery walked into the room with Bao in his arms and Yani followed them inside, locking the door with the key.

They were finally safe!

Of course, a few minutes later the holy knights knocked on Bishop Darcy's door, at last, they heard the noises of something going up to the third floor. The two knights cordially asked Bishop Darcy to open the door, they wanted to check if everything was okay with him.

Emery's acting wasn't bad, he had a cold look and the haughty temper was thrown at the Holy Knights, the expressionless face did even more damage to the Holy Knights than the emotionless words that came from the beautiful cherry lips of the Bishop.

Many had already heard of the great hero of the Aurora Empire, as well as his beautiful-looking and arrogant attitude. Of course, looking at beauty and knowing about it are different things.

The Holy Knights felt guilty, for looking at the handsome bishop they felt lustful desires, but they couldn't help but stare almost fixedly at Emery's perfectly chiseled face, which was cheeks a soft pink and not his lips full and bright reds, any suspicions they had were brushed aside until finally Bishop Darcy lost his temper and sent them back to their duties.

The conversation ended without complications, the knights saw that Bishop Darcy had a young man in his room, but they didn't comment on it. It was not uncommon for this type of situation, whether it was exploiting novices in a sexual way or just keeping a novice as a little servant.

The two felt the atmosphere in the room and felt no demonic energy, so they greeted Bishop Darcy once more and left. They even looked a few times at Emery's face, before the Bishop closed the door, they felt a little pity in his heart.

Bao who was lying on the bed was calm when the holy knights left.

There was a clear difference between exorcists and holy knights... Exorcists banish demons or imprison them somewhere. The holy knights can exterminate demons forever and ever.

Oddly as the two of them felt safe in Bishop Darcy's room, Emery's communication stone began to vibrate. He first got rid of the damp, black cloak that covered him, taking a seat in front of the unlit fireplace.

Yani diligently turned on all the lighting items in the room and helped light the fireplace, the room became warm and bright, chasing away some of the chills they felt down to their bones.

Emery knew it was silly to do all of this, as the communication stone was quite simple and didn't have the hologram effect, just transmitting the voice. That is, the butler Louis would not see the deplorable state he was in or if the room was dark.

However, he still enjoyed the warmth of the fireplace and stretched out more comfortably in the armchair near the warmth.

"Young Master Darcy?" Louis' voice sounded from the white stone like a moonstone, there was a soft bluish glow to the stone.

"I am here. Was there a problem on your side?" Emery asked hastily, just to avoid being interrogated by his butler.

Life was really quite laughable, he was a young master from a wealthy family, but he was afraid of his butler. Which was pretty pathetic, unfortunately, Louis was just loyal to Emery's father and obeyed that person's orders.

"Apart from the rain I mentioned earlier, there weren't any problems. I just arrived in town with young Theo. I decided to move to a city further away, the second-largest city in the Kingdom of Dawn. It would be safer to send the message to Master Darcy, besides, I plan to wait for Master Darcy's response, so it might take us a while to get back," Louis said calmly.

Louis had previously said that he would go to a town near the Abbey Matteos and take a half-day journey in a normal carriage. But he changed his mind midway through the trip, taking another route to a larger city that had more advanced magical devices.

"How long will it take you?" asked Emery, a little relieved that Louis was going to be away for a while, as things at the abbey were a chaotic mess of his own making, but he felt worried that he would have to spend more time inside Matteos Abbey.

It was as if the plot was operating in the world, forcing Emery and Giovanni to stay a full week's time before they could leave Matteos Abbey. That would be the exact time for all the harmful events in the plot to happen.

"It should take me three days in the city and a day to get back. In four days at the most I'll be back or who knows less, if I can rent a magic carriage I can arrive in less than four days" said Louis pondering a little. Now that he was in a city that was just below the capital, it wouldn't be hard to get a magic chariot.

"Stay safe and get back as soon as possible," Emery urged urgently. He wanted to get away from this abbey quickly, but without Louis, he doesn't dare go out there. Louis plays a key role between him being chased out of Archduke Darcy's Family or indulging in his father's good graces.

"Is the young master missing me already?" Louis teased with a soft laugh, but that didn't make Emery feel embarrassed. He was a person from a world where shame was nothing and could be cast away at any time if he were to live.

"Yes, I miss you so much! Come back soon and let my father know I urgently want to go home," Emery said without an ounce of embarrassment on his face. His voice got even softer and flirtatious.

Yani held back to try not to laugh because it was funny to see Bishop Darcy act in a flirtatious voice but with such an expressionless face. It was a very peculiar sight.

"All right, young master, I'll make sure to tell Master that you miss home and will become a more honorable son. Young master, have you already sent the letter to your mentor?" Louis asked in a very serious voice, he felt strange hearing the coquettish voice of his arrogant and proud young master.

"I wish I could have sent it, but some big things happened at Matteos Abbey, so I wanted you to hurry up and get back..." Emery started talking about everything that happened today, of course, he didn't say he was blamed for almost everything that happened.

After all, it was he who asked Bao to summon more demons and make a "great attack" on Matteos Abbey to serve as a cover-up while he saved Giovanni from Bishop Caruso.

Of course, Emery hid the fact that he had made a contract with a greater demon and that he was thinking of subduing a Demon Marquis to deliver to a novice because he wanted to "raising" a WARLOCK.

Those things were best said in person, yes, Emery had no illusions that he could keep a secret from Louis, but as long as he can avoid it, he won't say anything.

"This is very problematic. Since Father Sarami's death, things with demons have gotten weird. When I was in the young master's room, I also felt a strange presence. However, the presentation appeared to be aggressive, but he didn't have the courage to make a move apparently. I hope the young master is careful, this presence could be a demon or a disturbed spirit." Louis warned his young master, who lately had behaved a little foolishly.

Not that the of the body's original owner was a very intelligent person, he was the typical student genius. When it came to studying and learning the body's original owner was very good and there really weren't many who could match it. However, when it came to worldly knowledge, the original owner was so foolish as to appear innocent.

The current Emery looks even more innocent than the body's original owner, especially in the things he needed a good EQ for. Which made Louis worried about leaving his young master alone.

Louis wasn't wrong after all, with only a few hours that he left the young master behind, Emery caused a hell of a mess at Matteos Abbey, he made a contract with a great demon and did bed exercise with the clean young novice a few times.

"It's okay around here, apart from fire and some broken things the abbey managed to keep things under control. They sent a message to a nearby abbey and to the capital, soon some Holy Knights and exorcists must come here to investigate what happened and everything will be fine. By the way, how is Theo doing?"

Emery asked to deflect the subject, he felt that at any moment he could slip his tongue and say something that would arouse Louis' suspicion.

"A fire... Young master, it just made me even more worried! What am I going to tell Master Darcy if something happens to you?" Louis wasn't fooled and continued his endless complaints and recommendations for Emery to take better care of himself.

"Louis, you've complained enough. I know, I know, I'll be careful. The letter to my mentor, I'll send it tomorrow morning. Don't say anything else, just tell me how Theo is. You didn't do anything to him, did you?" Emery asked a little tired of Louis' extreme care as if he were a small crystal vase that at the slightest carelessness he would break.
