In the living room, seeing Eros return, Mary raised her face and asked curiously:

"What's going on outside?"

Eros said casually with a nonchalant tone:

"Nothing serious, just a couple moved in next door. The man's name is Robert Byrne and the woman's name is Lina Byrne."

Mary exclaimed, "It's them!"

Eros turned Mary over and let her lie on the back of the sofa. After hearing this, his hand paused for a moment and said in surprise:

"Have you heard of them?"

Mary folded her hands and lay on the back of the sofa, and said casually:

"My father was still alive, I think it was when I was 6 years old."

"I saw the woman named Lina and my father coming out of the study more than once."

"The reason my father gave me at the time was that they were discussing some knowledge in the study."

Hearing this, Eros' mouth twitched. They were discussing some knowledge, or rather some postures, he thought.

But did Mary's father die? Why had he never heard Mary mention it?

After noticing that Eros had stopped moving, Mary turned her head and glanced at Eros behind her.

Soon she understood what Eros was thinking, so she continued in a nonchalant tone:

"My father died when I was 8 years old. The cause of death was a strange erosion."

"The reason I never mentioned it to you before is because I felt it was unnecessary."

"Anyway, there's not much difference between having him or not having him."

"Is your father not good to you?" Eros said after choosing his words carefully.

Mary shook her head and said, "It's not that it's bad, it's just that he had a lot of mistresses, and my mother was weak at the time, so she couldn't control him."

"So he basically spent all those years in the courtyard where his mistress lived, and he and I only met occasionally on the garden path leading to the study."

"At that time, there were always other women around him, including Lady Lina and some other noble ladies."

"That's why, when he died in a strange invasion, I didn't feel anything."

"It's just a pity for my mother. She became a widow at such a young age, and later she became a widow directly."

"Even after my father passed away, she still thought she was not charming enough to charm him."

"So in order to prevent this from happening to me, she went and learned a lot of random things and then taught them to me."

"In the hope that I won't end up following her path in the future."

When she said the last part, helplessness was evident on Mary's face.

Eros suddenly realized and finally understood Mary's family situation.

Just at this moment, Mary groaned and her little face wrinkled.

After a while, he slowly relaxed and changed the subject:

"Haven't you had enough fun on that island?"

Eros showed helplessness on his face, there was nothing he could do.

Just now, when the woman named Lina hooked him with her little finger, she amplified his desire.

But he definitely couldn't tell Mary the truth, after all, it concerned the Cult of the Abyss.

Although he had already planted a spiritual mark on Mary, Eros had not yet decided whether to reveal his identity as the remnant of the night in front of Mary.

So he made up a lie: "I can't help it, because you are so cute."

Hearing this, Mary's soft lips curled up slightly: "If you say so, I will take it seriously."

"Of course it's true. Would I lie to you?"

Eros' tone was somewhat dissatisfied...

Mary cried out in surprise and begged for mercy, "I was wrong! I was wrong! I dared not doubt you."

Mrs. Florica, who was sitting nearby, was no longer surprised by this scene. She even reached out to help Mary when she accidentally slipped to the side of the sofa.

After a while, Isabella and Angelica came out of the kitchen with the prepared dinner.

Seeing Angelica coming out, Eros' eyes lit up and he waved to Angelica.

……

After a long time, Eros, who had eaten and drunk his fill, walked out of the villa.

Although he didn't rest during the day today, given his physical condition, not resting for a few days would not have any impact.

Since it was too late to go out tonight, Eros did not go to the Special Operations Department office, but started wandering around the streets.

At the same time, on the street outside the West District Police Headquarters, Archbishop Dino sat in a carriage and fell into deep thought.

Isn’t it said that His Majesty the Son of God always comes to the Special Operations Department office before his night patrol?

Why didn't you come today? It's already late, why haven't you come yet?

He had originally wanted to take advantage of this evening to tell His Highness the Son of God about the original sin of greed that he had discovered in those two ordinary people.

But why hasn’t His Royal Highness the Son of God come yet?

He also thought about paying a home visit, but that was too abrupt. As an archbishop in a city, he took the initiative to visit a Night Watch member's home. Anyone with a discerning eye would know that something was wrong.

But if I sneak into His Highness the Son of God's house, it would seem disrespectful.

Although some things are formalities, sometimes you have to abide by them.

Archbishop Dino was in a dilemma.

I waited and waited, and suddenly it was two o'clock in the morning.

During this time, many night watchmen noticed the carriage parked on the roadside and went over to check.

But after seeing Archbishop Dino sitting in the carriage, his expression suddenly became respectful, and then he left.

After three o'clock in the morning, Archbishop Dino sighed softly and drove the carriage back to Jolton Cathedral.

After returning to Jordan Cathedral, Archbishop Dino went straight to the office, took out a piece of letter paper, and began to write.

After writing the letter, Archbishop Dino called his messenger.

"Send this letter to Villa 179, rue Béran."

After seeing the messenger disappear with the letter, Archbishop Dino leaned back in his office chair, tapping the desk with his fingers, and fell into deep thought.

At 178 B. Braun Street, after finishing her routine work for the night, Lina glanced at her husband who had fallen asleep in bed from exhaustion, then walked naked into the bathroom with her smooth legs to wash up.

But just as she stepped into the bathtub, she suddenly felt the fluctuations of the spiritual world.

The fluctuations seemed to be coming from next door.

Lina narrowed her eyes slightly. Did someone come to the next door through the spirit world?

The minimum requirement for traveling through the spirit world is to reach Sequence 6. Only after obtaining the profane fire and igniting the spiritual fire can one initially possess the ability to travel through the spirit world.

In other words, there is a guy next door who is at least Sequence 6?

Lina thought of the identity of the young man, and she couldn't help but wonder, could it be that guy Horst?

Thinking of this, Lina withdrew her legs from the bathtub.

She picked up a bath towel and wrapped her curvy body, then walked towards her balcony.

She wanted to see what was going on next door.

If it's beneficial to her, she doesn't mind getting involved.

After arriving at the balcony, in order to avoid exposing her identity, Lina reached out and pulled the pendant of her necklace out from her chest.

The next second, there was a flash of light and shadow, and Lina's appearance suddenly changed.

With the help of moonlight, Lina looked at her current appearance through the window and found that she was still beautiful. She nodded with satisfaction, then jumped off the balcony and sneaked into the yard next door.
