At the very moment when Angel touched the talent ball, a dazzling red light flashed past.
“Red. A red light! “
The crowd looked dumbfoundedly at the talent ball, this time it was a real talent?!
A look of surprise popped up in Leon’s eyes, Angel had a talent?!
Leon clenched his fists and an unstoppable excitement rose from the bottom of his heart.
If a servant has a talent, he may be happy for them, but after all, that is someone else’s talent, they can at best be treated like some relatives at a moments convenience; but Angel having the talent, this is different matter entirely, he is someone from the same family, and they are closest to each other.
As long as Angel can become a wizard, even if he stops at a wizard apprentice, the Pat family will benefit immensely!
The expression of surprise on Count Ethan’s face flashed away, and there was growing ideas in his eyes: There was no doubt that the Pat family is on the rise.
In this foreseeable future, as long as the Monne family extends an olive branch in advance, they may be able to gain more extraordinary connections in the future?
Allen and Irene did not think deeply about Angel’s situation as their father. Allen’s chubby face did not show any expression, but Irene tilted her head and looked at Angel with a trace of curiosity in her eyes, she bent the corners of her mouth up.
Sweetly giggling at Angel, she was happy in think she would learn magic with Angel in the future.
Even at the beginning, even if there was some resistance in going far away from her native land, these thoughts had dissipated, the only thing now left in her heart is expectations about the future.
Morrow’s eyes also flashed with surprise, but soon calmed down.
At this time, as the center of the crowd’s attention, Angel is caught in a strange state.
After touching the talent ball, Angel found that his body is floating, his heart also felt a burst of excitement, does this strange floating not const.i.tute as a “change.”
So he’s talented?
Angel was overjoyed.
But just at that moment Angel heard bursts of drums outside the storeroom, as if there were a large chorus of singers and musicians.
Advertis.e.m.e.nts
Huh?
Didn’t my brother allow the band to leave?
Why did they start playing again?
Angel was about turn and ask Leon when he turned and found something amiss.
The whole storage room was empty except him floating in the air.
His brother is not here, Sir Morrow is not here, and neither Count Ethan nor his children are here.
Angel further noticed a bit more, although no one is here, the talent ball on the table is still there, the candle are also quietly swaying, everything seems to be very normal.
At this time, the music outside became more and more gentle, Angel frowned and slowly floated towards the door, pushing open the storeroom.
Outside the door is a corridor, the style is beautiful, both sides are covered with elegant curtains and walls with large paintings, walking in one can see armor stands and statues at this time around the corner.
This luxurious aristocratic style was liked by his father, old Pat, and the two brothers had not changed it since his death.
The curtains were lifted by the night wind, and Angel looked quietly out of window, viewing the quiet darkness.
That is strange.
This is really strange.
Obviously, everything in front of him is very familiar, from furnishings to hanging decorations, they are the same as ordinary, but why does he feel inexplicably strange?
On every door of Pat Manor, there are Lion Heart lanterns on the left and right, which displays the family emblem of the Pat family.
The servants will add oil to it every day, and by lighting a fire at night, it will be able to stay lit until dawn, which represent that “the fire in the heart of the lion will never go out.”
But now, there is no fire, even on the iron entrance outside the castle, there is no light that burns.
Where is this?
Is this really Pat Manor?
Where has everyone gone?
Angel could not help wondering.
The soft music was becoming more melodious, and Angel felt the sound become little stranger by the moment.
Angel looked out of the window again and was surprised to find that the sky was full of stars, and many constellations in which he had never seen before.
You know, in the town of Grud when entering the Month of Frost,
There are so few stars visible to the naked eye at night, that most stars that appear can be only be seen from afar, almost light-years away.
On this clear and bright evening, being able to see seven or eight stars twinkling is already a lot.
Now the sky outside is full of stars, as if Grud Town is in the middle of summer!
Fear unconsciously began to rise from the bottom of Angel’s heart.
All these scenes were so unreal that he believed he might no longer be in the real Pat Manor Garden.
Angel took a deep breath and was ready to go back to the storeroom, no matter how strange this phenomenon was, Angel still felt that the storeroom was a place of rea.s.surance for him.
Just as Angel was walking back, two huge cards appeared in front of him.
There was no concept of playing cards in Old Land, but Jon once made a set of cards for old Pat, who loved the novel card game. It was all the rage in the estate for a while, but to Angel’s bewilderment, the playing cards didn’t spread out beyond the estate.
Does this have anything to do with it being from earth?
The two cards in front of Angel, much like Jon’s deck of cards down to the intricate patterns on the edges, were magnified hundreds of times—
The human-sized poker cards have an Ace of hearts on one corner and another Ace on the other while the other card has an Ace of spades.
What stunned Angel most was that both cards had bamboo-like limbs sticking out, moving left and right, the Ace of hearts with a cross sword and a long spear, and the Ace of spades with a round shield and chain hammer.
The moving speed of the playing cards was so fast that when they rushed Angel he soon became dazed.
By the time he reacted to ran, it was too late.
The next second, Angel was sandwiched between two cards.
The two cards did not seem to notice him, and went on their march, their bodies were so wide that Angel had no room to dodge, so he was wedged forward by them.
Angel tried to avoid and escape them, but it didn’t even make any difference whether he was suspended in mid-air or not, because the s.p.a.ce occupied by the two cards was so large.
Helplessly, Angel had given up resistance and moved forward with the card guards.
After a while, Angel found himself taken into the hall by the two card guards.
That melodious music he has been hearing came from here.
There was music playing on stage, but Angel saw no one playing. The instrument themselves were being played by several teacups engraved with red hearts, jumping up and down in front of each instrument.
Teacups can play musical instruments?
Angel had not yet quenched his interest but found that the ace of hearts guard and the ace of spades guard that had brought him in had disappeared.
Now that he had arrived in the hall and had to face this strange fantasy world, Angel became a little bolder than he was before, and did not think of going back to the storeroom once, but instead headed towards the middle of the hall.
The hall was alight by the lamps, and all kinds of strange objects were performing different tasks.
In addition to instrument playing teacups, Angel also found brick who would move themselves, green-feathered owl dolls playing near crystal chandeliers, rows of colorful dragonflies patrolling the air, and unknown moonstones and sun gems changing colors.
Seeing more and more of these strange creatures, Angel’s nerves became more tensed but then his fears had faded significantly.
Because he found an interesting little detail, the ‘creatures’ here seemed to turn a blind eye to him.
He had floated close to the colorful dragonflies to observe, but the other party did not even pay attention to him and simply flew away.
Is it because they can’t see him, or because they’re not interested in him?
Angel doesn’t know.
After floating for a while, he vaguely saw that there seemed to be a tremor in the s.p.a.ce, behind his back at the main table chair.
He wondered if someone was sitting there?
Angel carefully controlled his floating body and swung towards the table.
The closer he gets, the more confident he becomes in his judgment.
For he had vaguely heard the sounds of knives and forks touching the porcelain plate as they were dining as well a clatter of books.
Reading while dining?
Angel suddenly wondered who was sitting in the chair.
He now has a vague guess that he may no longer be in Pat estate but in a parallel dimensional.
His mentor has mentioned parallel worlds, but on Earth these are still hypotheses.
But this is not earth, or even not even in the same universe where earth is located, what would appear wrong if there emerged a real parallel world?
In this parallel world, there is a Pat Manor, but no Pat family.
Perhaps the man sitting in the chair is the owner of Pat Manor in this parallel world?
Angel continued speculating.
