Chapter 336: Waves
Earl Hall's home in Queens.

"Father, mother, and sister, what happened to Duke Negan last night? Why didn't you tell me?" The eldest son Hibbert Hall asked impatiently. He had other social events last night, so he didn't attend the ball... And the organizer of the ball, the noble Duke Negan, was assassinated in his own home! This is too incredible!
"Hibbert, stop asking. If I had a choice, I would rather Audrey and your mother not be involved in this matter..." Earl Hall rubbed his temples and said after relieving his fatigue:

"Fortunately, we have always had a good relationship with the Goddess Church... Otherwise, we might have to enjoy breakfast in that military department today..."

Audrey took a sip of coffee. She was actually very calm in her heart. This was because of the many familiar faces she saw last night, because of their common identity as members of the "Tarot Club", and because of the words of the "Priestess" that Susie conveyed!
"We donate more than 1 pounds every year. The church should..."

"Hibbert!" It was not Earl Hall who shouted at Hibbert, but the Countess. She showed a serious and solemn expression that was rarely seen on ordinary days, and said:

“Absolutely, absolutely stop saying what the church should do and stop saying what we donated.

"You don't need to get involved anymore. Just focus on running your business and getting the position you deserve... Then even if something happens to us, the Hall family will continue."

"... Sorry, mother, sorry, father, I... understand." Hibbert pushed his chair away, stood up and left the restaurant. He already knew that he couldn't get any more information from here, but it didn't matter... He also had many friends! Just ask them!

Audrey watched her eldest brother leave, waved her hand to signal the servants and housekeeper to step back, and she stood up, lifted her skirt and bowed to her parents, saying:

"I'm sorry, it was my selfish decision that brought trouble to the Hall family...

"I will tell the Goddess Church how I obtained the potion formula and how I became a Beyonder...

“After that, I am willing to join the Goddess Church and become an official Beyonder.

"In that case, our family will have connections with the church and will get more inside information... protection will also be strengthened..."

The Countess immediately stood up and hugged her daughter, saying in a somewhat anxious tone:
"Audrey! No, you've always been interested in the occult, so you must know what you'll lose by joining the church...

"Freedom, my daughter, you will be assigned dangerous missions one after another... facing those ugly and vicious criminals!

"That's too dangerous! Don't look at how glorious they were last night... It's too dangerous, Audrey! You are not suitable for that place!
"Never! Your father and I will do our best to protect you, and the Goddess Church is so kind. She told us to come back last night... It will be fine. After breakfast, we will go to St. Samuel's Church, make donations, and find the familiar bishop!"

Earl Hall looked at his wife and daughter with pity and sighed:

"Audrey, we all know that you became a Beyonder... Heh, someone reported to me that some materials were missing from the treasury.

"There are also 'special people' among the bodyguards we hired, such as Rebecca, the female bodyguard who was responsible for protecting you before. The Goddess Church also sent extraordinary people to protect us, but they prefer to act at night...

“There are also quite a few extraordinary people in our family, such as your second brother Alfred… He has already gone a long way on that path.

"So we all acquiesced to your little adventure. It's not a big problem. Even His Majesty the King has acquiesced to each family having its own Beyonder." "The Goddess Church won't say anything. Our family is a devout believer in the Goddess! Your father is also very influential."

"The problem is still Duke Negan..." Earl Hall lit up a cigar beside him and smoked in front of his family, which was rare. After driving away his sleepiness, he said:

"He is the leader of the conservative faction and he agrees with us...

"His death should have been an opportunity, but... we shouldn't have been there, and we witnessed the murderer's crazy behavior...

“This is already a political stain… and a big defeat for conservatives… because most of the people invited to the ball were conservatives.

“Heh, according to common sense, I should have received an invitation for a meeting from Prime Minister Agushid this morning, but not now.

"The impact has already begun. I wonder which noble family will fall and which one will rise up...

“I’m sorry Audrey, I said too much. I would never let you hear this before… But in the future, maybe you have to be stronger. You can reconsider joining the church. I don’t think it’s a bad thing.

"Hey, I originally wanted to let our daughter stay with us for a few more years... Caitlin, respect our daughter's wishes. She has her own ideas."

Audrey nodded firmly. Joining the Goddess Church was the result of her careful consideration!
Because Fors, Xio, and Mr. World are all Nighthawks! With their care, I can quickly adapt to the environment there!

She had never considered the possibility that her two female friends... by chance... had become Storm's "substitute punishers."

……

Fors and Xio had serious expressions and stood straight, completely fitting in with the extremely depressing atmosphere in the deacon's office.

"Old man!! You are just... F*ck!! @#￥#!" Roy Wellington's face was black. He never expected that the "Apostle of Desire" would have the courage to assassinate Duke Negan! And he succeeded!

“What? Blame me? Wasn’t it because that Duke couldn’t control his lower body, allowing someone to take advantage of it and ignite his desire… Tsk tsk, he was a Sequence 6 Beyonder, really…” Old Blue was the most relaxed person here. Even without Duke Negan, there was still the next Duke Negan. His successor would have to thank us for “dodging” and not saving him!

"Hey, His Excellency 'Singer of God' went to attend a meeting at the military department. Let's see. Anyway, neither of us will end up well..." Roy couldn't curse anymore. In fact, the one he should curse was not this old guy, but "Singer of God"!
When the lord heard the news, he took his group to the sky on impulse and rushed to the "Jason" at the dock...

But can I scold that person? !
In the end, the old guy was more reliable. He took a group of green hands of the Punishers and teamed up with Steam and Night to investigate the remaining two locations...

If all those nobles were killed...haha, a group of guys including myself could retire in our prime.
