"Fine" Lennox said before shoving another mouthful of bread in his mouth.
Only after swallowing it did Lennox speak: "well, you see, between those contracts and docunts you gave , there were few emblem seals that belonged to the Alphonsus Earl printed as a conformation. Moreover, most of the seals were printed disorderly, obviously because that fucker was as old as my great grandma's corpse, old enough that his hands shake like a cart passing on a rough road".
"However, there were three tis that the emblem seals were neatly printed, authorizing three ships to enter the southern harbour without inspection. Ignoring the context of the undertaking, why would the dude suddenly stop shaking? Did life energy just burst in him? That can't be, then the most probable answer would be that soone else sealed it for him. But knowing the old fuckers' personality such a thing was entirely impossible, then why would the impossible just occur?".
" I examined the seals and found out that the mana on them, which distinguished the Alphonsus emblem seal, seed fresh, unlike the original emblem seal that contains hundreds of years old mana. Normal People can't sense the magical energy, and without the ability of an at least B class magician, there was no way to differentiate between them. And this is the answer to your first question ".
Jennings stayed silent for a while, with an unreadable expression he said:" is that why all your tutors always resign in few days? You damage their ntal health!!!? And here I was thinking that you threatened them or sothing ".
Lennox drank the whole glass of orange juice in one go, he said:" huh? You should know that I highly respect whoever teaches sothing I did not know. However, those idiots you bring are useless trash, they barely managed to keep the conversations ".
Jennings:" I highly doubt those were any normal conversations. Leave that aside. tell now, why lady Adelaide?".
Lennox attacked another poached egg, he said indifferently:" bechos she kred bosel li odor (because she carried brothels-like odour)".
Jennings's' face darkened, he crossed his arms and said with a gritted teeth:" and how do you know what brothels sll like?!!!".
finally, Lennox realized that he had just bombed his life.
Deep silence covered the room, Lennoxs' face looked calm, while, his mind was in real chaos.
In the past, he would spend a couple of nights every week in so pleasure houses surrounded by beauties, and no one could say anything to him. As a result, he beca familiar with the scents of herbs and perfus that those won use to make n more sensitive and easily excited.
However, at the mont, there was definitely no reason for a ten years old kid to end up at such places, and a prince of all the people.
Lennox kept his composure, he poured another glass of orange juice and drank a mouthful of it before saying:" well, I would co across so jerks and wenches every now and then, when I visit the commoners' district. The scent was unique and morable, not to ntion that the one in question is , I simply can not forget ".
Jennings narrowed his eyes, he stared unblinking at Lennox, he said:" you know that I don't believe you ".
Lennox responded with a challenging tone:" And you know that I know that you are way too noble to accuse with nothing but your instincts".
Indeed, Jennings couldn't argue back, he always believed that one's feelings towards sothing can never overco the presented facts. Jennings knew that Lennox would sneak out of the palace every week to slack of sowhere in the capital, he also knew that Lennoxs' mory never ever failed.
Seeing that Jennings dropped his hostile attitude, Lennox sized the opportunity to flee before Jennings would question him further.
He quickly stood and pretended to fix his clothes while saying:" I assu you can guess what happened after. Well then, I have to go now".
" go where?" Jennings asked.
Lennox:" don't worry we are not leaving the palace. I am just taking your daughter to the practice field ".
After Jennings nodded, Lennox walked to the exit. And when he reached the door, Jennings called for him: "wait!!".
Lennox asked: "is there sothing else?".
Jennings said with a serious face:" I heard from Henry that you said sothing about a child to Roosevelt, do you mind explaining?".
Lennox paused for a while, before saying with a deep breath:" I don't think we should have this conversation, it's the Alphonsuss' household private affair. There is Nothing to worry about..... for now ".
*******
After dusk, while Lennox waited in the arsenal, the umbrella butler went to escort Everly since she doesn't know how to get there.
The vast hall was filled with uncountable numbers of armours, swords, Spear, axes....etc. every kind of weapons with different designs and different tal bases.
Now that Everly wore the imperial gourds' attire again and returned to her cutie-pie appearance, Lennox couldn't help but appreciate Rachel's existence more and more.
He put his hand on Everlys' shoulder saying:" I know you are supposed to be a swordsman by the way you have been going here and there with that sword hanging around you. So I am just saying this to be considerate, do you prefer any other type of weapons?".
For Everly, this question was the sa as asking whether she prefers vanilla or strawberry, they are both sweet so she would eat whatever. Everly shook her head quickly, she whooped:" are we going to duel!!? I am fine with anything, as long as it's not a hamr thingy I can fight with it".
"Anything?" Lennox asked.
Everly nodded her head several tis, she affird loud and clear.
After a mont of pondering, Lennox said with a grin in his face:" fine then, let's head to the practice field first".
He turned to the umbrella butler commanding:" bring all the weapons made by Rakshata, exclude the humr type ones".
