276 Steve

"Dangdangdang--" Enid poured his purse on the table with a thud, allowing Daren to see clearly.

Many white silver jiggs rolled out from inside, piled up into a small hill. Delen was still aware of his and Enid's financial resources. He could tell at a glance that the small pile in front of him was at least seven or eight times more than before.

"What do you do..." Delan asked halfway, and saw a small colored note in Enid's hair.

He immediately understood everything: "Are you going to bet on lottery tickets?"

"Yeah! Yeah!" the little girl nodded vigorously, with a proud look on her face, "Are I awesome? Today, Brother Hans and Sister Laura also bought your lottery tickets, and they insisted on keeping them until the last game. As soon as you lose, their lottery tickets were invalid. Uncle Jeff, who saw you win a game, made a little profit... But I still earned the most! Not only did I buy you, but I also bought the future quarterfinals in the original timeline! Almost everyone won all of them today! I spent all my savings, and I bought each of them at one go, and it turned out that it has increased many times now!"

Unexpectedly, Daren's face darkened.

"You mean, you bought all the lottery tickets for those who would have become the quarterfinals in the future? You only bought them, but not others?"

"Yes," the little girl nodded for granted, "This is the fastest way to make money... If this continues, we will be able to afford better weapons and armor in a few days! Your winning rate will be further improved by then..."

"Don't buy it again!" Daren suddenly shouted angrily.

Enid was startled. Daren never treated her so fiercely...

Daren paced back and forth in the room uneasy: "Maybe you have been noticed by those who are interested! How could a normal person be so accurate? He only bought the lottery tickets of the winner, but not the lottery tickets of the loser... If he is discovered again in the future, the eight people you buy every day will be the final quarterfinals, and no matter how stupid a person is, he will doubt that you can predict the future!"

Enid looked at him for some reason: "So what's wrong? They're just suspicious."

"You don't understand... you may die because of this!" Daren sat down with his head in annoyance, no longer concealed it, and said the content of his meeting with Jima before he returned to the hotel.

Enid's face changed undetectable as she listened to the description of the brunette boy.

"I really don't know what the Holy See is crazy about the Holy See. How can it be heresy? That prophet Osborne also claims to be able to predict the future? Aren't there many powerful pastors who have mastered the stars called [Prophecy]?" Deren was indignant, but he still grabbed Enid's hand and stared at her and told her: "No matter what, you should not buy lottery tickets like this. If you are recognized, it will be broken... No, no! I won't participate in this Giant Moth City Competition. Let's leave this city tonight!"

Daren left as soon as he said that, he stood up immediately, began to clean up the scattered clothes in the room, etc.

Enid did not move, and continued to sit at the table, holding her chin with her hands, looking at the headless brunette boy who was spinning like a flies, his eyes gradually became very soft.

"Okay, Brother Daren, sit down quickly." She suddenly laughed, her eyes curled into crescent moons, "You don't need to withdraw from the competition, I will stop buying lottery tickets tomorrow... You must know that since there is news within the Holy See that heresy is in Jumo City, wouldn't it be even more suspicious if you withdraw from the competition and escape now?"

Daren was stunned.

It seems to make sense...

"I will not buy lottery tickets in the future, nor will I reveal my mark in front of others. No one will doubt me." Enid put on a harmless expression, "If it were you, would you doubt a little girl who is not even an adventurer without any evidence?"

Daren glared at her for a while before finally breathing a sigh of relief.

After much persuasion, Enid persuaded him to get into bed because today's battle and the extra training after the game were really tiring, and Daren fell asleep in a short while.

With the moonlight outside the window, the little girl's dark and bright eyes looked at the face of the brown-haired boy without blinking. Her light linen hair seemed to have a faint golden light in the darkness.

"You didn't ask me why I was so aggressive in searching for it." Enid murmured to himself, "Aren't you afraid that I am really a heretic, an evil person?"

In fact, she didn't know why the Holy See arrested her. She didn't even understand her own life experience, let alone why she became a heretic.

But she knew that no matter what her identity was, Delen would keep it secret for her and would protect her at all costs! So he didn't ask, because the result would not change. This was already confirmed in the timeline she saw, because in that original future, when she began to be suspected by the Holy See, Delen found an opportunity to take her away from Jumo City, avoiding the pursuit of the referee day and night, and Delen even paid the price of his life...

She did not allow the future to repeat the same mistakes, so she had already made up her mind not to escape this time.

On the day when I really can't hide it, I'll leave with the Holy See... In short, I must not let Daren fall into danger again! And before leaving, try to leave more legacy...

This is Enid's truest thought.

Under the moonlight, the little girl slowly walked back to the table, yawned, and began to fiddle with various bottles and jars again.

"Dear Master, the royal messenger asks you to see."

Outside the door of a luxurious bedroom in the lord castle of Jumo City, a guard gently passed the message.

"No! Also, please go back and tell him that even if he finds many people to pass the message, I will not see you!" Flinda's angry voice came out through the thick iron gate.

"Okay...uh, you?" The guard's voice came to an abrupt end.

Then, a thick and magnetic middle-aged man's voice sounded: "If I were to come by myself, could I open the door and meet?"

Inside the door, it instantly fell into death silence.

"We have not seen each other for almost ten years since we parted in the royal city..." The middle-aged man sighed in his voice, "Flinda, no matter how much you hate me and annoy me and get tired of me, you should be relieved... I ask His Highness Glen, and Master Audrey have sent you a letter, hoping to reconcile, and hope that you can return to the royal court, but you have always ignored me..."

"This time, I heard that you were recuperating in Jumo City, so I applied to Your Majesty to be the royal representative this time! Finally, I can say a few words to you, even though it is through the door."

"Goddess is here, let's meet? Even for the sake of our daughter... I haven't seen her for ten years, and I don't know how tall she is..."

The man kept talking, and when he mentioned his daughter, he finally reacted in the door.

Boom!

An invisible but surging magic power surged out of the room, like a huge wave hitting the middle-aged man!

The man's face changed drastically, a mini magic wand slid down from his sleeve, and he suddenly used a magic shield to block his body. However, the gap in strength between the two sides was obvious. He was still pushed back in the magic shield, and he retreated to the farthest end of the corridor before he stabilized his body and was sweating profusely.

"You are so embarrassed to mention your daughter?" Flinda's voice collapsed. "You haven't been ignorant for so many years. Now that she has left, you come to ask me for someone? Steve, go back and be your maritime minister. If you dare to pester me again, I swear to kill you!"
