An Assistant to the Angel of Death
46

Claude managed to resist the attack from Carpel with one hand only. His face was so calm. Unlike Carpel, his face was red. He was really emotional with what Claude said.

"Did you guys see? My brother attacked me without his magic, but it's better than using magic. He's still being kind to me, isn't he." Claude tries to defend Carpel, but Carpel knows that Claude is currently in the audience to move on to him.

"Stay it's disrespectful, even though young master Carpel is the brother of master Claude, but scaring the audience and attacking his own brother is a very dishonorable thing." One of the attendants began to say what words Claude expected to come out of their mouths.

Claude took the knife out of Carpel's hand and slipped it into his pocket without anyone knowing.

"You see, no, no one believes you." Claude whispered to Carpel with a sly smile.

"It's not over stupid!" Carpel replied to Claude with emotion.

Claude bowed respectfully to the guests who had come. To apologize for their inconvenience caused by the dispute between the two brothers.

"Then forgive me for the inconvenience to the Lady and the invited guests for the inconvenience my brother has caused."

"You're not mistaken, Mr. Claude, even the king's majesty respects you. What's wrong is your brother who doesn't have that morality."

True, young master Carpel did not just lose in the noble sword fighting competition alone. He's really stupid turns out. hahaha."

Everyone was successfully instigated by Claude's words.This will greatly facilitate Claude for the future when the time comes Claude must kill the Duke. He can't possibly be suspected of being the killer because tonight.

As soon as Duke drank the drink, his medicinal reaction would immediately react in his body, but as Carpel said that everything was not finished. Carpel is still setting up one more trap that Carsten will do.

As soon as Claude stood tall with Carpel. Carsten disguised himself as a waiter in a waiter's uniform while carrying glasses of drink.

Claude actually knew that the waiter who was going to approach him was Carsten, but he had to pretend not to know it. So Carpel feels good first.

Carsten began to carry out the action, while carrying a wine gun on his right and left. Carsten pretended to slip towards Claude while. Attacking him using his magic.

But it was in vain that the magic coming out of Carsten was so easily absorbed by Claude's pendant. So that Carsten who did not predict it, almost harmed himself who would fall on the glass glass bell that he had just dropped.

However, Claude immediately caught Carsten who fell even though his clothes would be filled with red from the spilled wine.

"You okay, Carsten?" Claude immediately asked Carsten. To show how kind Claude was in front of the audience.

Everyone was whispering about the waiter who had just spilled wine on Claude's shirt. They looked at the servant with a look of disgust at the incompetence of the person.

But soon all those views will be turned around. "Thank you brother" said Carsten. Crying while shedding her tears.

As for the other opinion, that Claude deliberately did that, because he felt more powerful than his sister. As for the other responses that were all conversing and eventually led to Claude's infamy.

"Why are you wearing Carsten's butler?" Claude pretended not to know. To maintain his reputation.

"Didn't you tell me? You didn't help me with your magic either so that the drink wouldn't spill, sis. Did you deliberately want to dirty your suit?" Carsten smiled cunningly while still pretending to be weak.

Carpel gave his thumbs up silently towards Carsten while smiling with satisfaction. But Claude already knew all the plans for what they were going to do.

"I'm sorry, brother, I was panicking that you were hurt. So that you can't cast magic to help you." Claude showed an expression of regret.

Everyone felt guilty for saying a no-no to Claude. "I once again apologize for the party I held that did not go well. I'm gonna compensate this party for the next better party."

"I am honored by your apology and I will wait for the next party invitation that is better than the baron family residence." One of the men answered respectfully to Claude.

Claude pretended to smile kindly at everyone. To show the hospitality that is within him.

"Then I'll resign myself to clean my clothes." Claude just left while observing Duke Lourik to wait for a chance to see the Duke who was drunk heavily.

Claude immediately left the party hall in the title. While meeting Krud who had been waiting for him for a long time in Claude's room.

As soon as Claude climbed the stairs, Claude had already seen the signs, Duke was heavily drunk. His body was feeling weak and red. The duchess helped get the Duke to walk.

It seems like it would be difficult if the Duke went home together with the Duchess, as it is likely that the Duchess will always be by her side. Claude had to think of a way to separate the Duke and Duchess.

Because if the Duchess found out what Claude was doing, of course she would misunderstand the situation. And it's very likely that the Duchess will consider Claude a murderer.

For a while Claude had to rush to his room to change his clothes, while asking one thing to Krud who had been waiting for a long time in Claude's room.

Once inside his room Claude immediately took off his suit, and threw it carelessly. He changed his clothes using black clothes and a black hood to cover his identity.

"Krud, where's Duke's death warrant."

"It." Krud gave a piece of paper containing information about Duke Lourik and the day of his death. So does her magic and protection magic.

"Are you sure you just want to watch?" Claude asked Krud who was sitting at the end of Claude's bed in Algerian black clothes just like he was in the battlefield.

"I just want to look at it for now. Because I guess if I come along, it doesn't seem like it'll help at all." Krud smiled at Claude. While looking at Claude's eyes blue like a shiny diamond.
