Chapter 1401
In the festive hall, two men walked forward with a steady gait.
The guy with blonde hair wore a gilded mask that looked like it was made from platinum and gold. He exuded grace and elegance like that of a noble.
The other one was a man Wu Yan and Silvia could recognize from a single glance.
His silver hair was tied in a ponytail while he dyed a little knot of his bangs in red. His unique mask also gave him away. This guy had a frigid aura.
Milgauss is here.
As predicted, Milgauss infiltrated the city and attended this event.
In other words, it is highly likely Milgauss already started his evil plan.
Wu Yanâs deep red eyes were like reticles, his sniper-like gaze fell on Milgauss.

âLooks like we donât have to search anymore.â
âHuh?â
They wore masks but the nobleâs aura surpassed the authority of the other nobles here.
Their overwhelming presence forced the people in their way to give way. Wu Yan stood defiantly in their path along with Silvia by his side.
The two Zepharos delegates approached the two students.
Other than close aides and bodyguards, almost all the attendees were nobles.
With their sense of the general mood heightened, the people noticed this confrontation before they looked on with interest.
This is a prequel to the Continental Summit, anything that happens here might repeat at the summit so they wanted to gather as much data as they could.
Alas, it is almost certain that Milgauss will stand in opposition to the Knightdom.
âOh, dearâŠâ
The noble stopped talking to another noble. He turned around to give them both a radiant smile.
âI was almost certain I am in the presence of a goddessâŠâ
The noble hastened his steps before presenting himself in front of Wu Yan and Silvia.
He ignored the guy while introducing himself to Silvia through a nobleâs curtsy.
âThe fourth princess of Lautreamont Knightdom, Princess Silvia, I presume?â
Silviaâs heart tightened.
She was identified on the spot?
âYour unique aura cannot be hidden by a mere mask, your highnessâŠâ
The noble chuckled.
âSince this is a masked ball, let us do away with our identities and just have a nice chat.â
âRightâŠâ
Silvia nodded. She returned the favor.
âKlaus Viderhausen, a famed noble of the Zepharos empire, I am honored by your presence.â
âOh, my, you saw through me?â
The noble shrugged. He wasnât trying to hide his identity anyway.
âThenâŠâ
Klaus looked at Wu Yan.
âWho is this?â
âMe?â
He grinned.
âAn old friend of MilgaussâŠâ
âOld friend?â
Stunned, Klaus tried to search his memories.
âYes, weâre old acquiantancesâŠâ
Milgauss replied.
âLong time no see, Lord Rowan.â
âItâs been a while.â
Wu Yan chortled.
âI missed talking with you.â
âHow amusing, I was itching to find you too.â
Milgaussâ words were as frosty as ice.
Like enemies, the two stared each other down.
It looked like the two might brawl without any warnings.
Klaus tried to stop the two from making a scene by stepping in between them.
âAh, an old friend, how shockingâŠâ
âPlease, I am equally surprised.â
Wu Yan poked fun at Milgauss.
âLord Klaus, my friend has a bad personality. Looks like he is working for you so please guard him well, donât let him go around making a mess of everything.â
Milgauss hid his enmity while Klaus tried to laugh this one off.
âYes, I am very fond of my follower. Please, be at ease, I will look after him.â
âGood.â
Wu Yan shrugged, he grabbed Silviaâs hand.
âWell then, let us end this hereâŠâ
âEnjoy yourselvesâŠâ
Klaus bid them farewell too.
Wu Yan led Silvia away from them.
âComradeâŠâ
Klaus mumbled.
âThat man is not simple.â
âYes.â
Milgauss concurred.
âHeâs a troublesome person to deal with.â
âHmm?â
Klaus asked.
âIs he going to be an obstacle?â
âNot really.â
Milgauss shrugged him off.
âThe plan has already begun.â
Klaus chuckled.
âTrue.â
âWhat are we going to do?â
SIlvia asked after leaving Klaus and Milgauss.
âWe know Milgauss is in the capital. If he attacksâŠâ
âCalm downâŠâ
Wu Yan grabbed her hand tighter.
âHe is here but it doesnât look like he is attacking. Maybe he is just a guard for once?â
âNo.â
Silvia rejected that notion.
âMilgauss knows he is already exposed. Yet, he chose to venture into the capital, this means he has a countermeasure.â
âYes, we need proof.â
Wu Yan winked.
âWe just need a casus belli to pounce on that guy.â
âLord Rowan! Princess!â
An anxious voice called out to them.
Wu Yan and Silvia looked in that direction only to see Cossette running toward them with a panicked look.
âWhatâs wrong?â
Wu Yan immediately had a bad feeling.
Cossette confirmed his foreboding sense.
âSomething bad happened! Lord Ash and Eco-chan are gone!â
