Chapter 229 Weird Ancestry

Anna helped digging the soil while making a wry smile. As Noel said earlier, there was indeed a hole on the other side, allowing them to go inside the building.

She even wondered why no one repaired it, but if it was Noel's fault, then she could understand why they didn't want to repair it and only closed it with the dirt.

The hole was located in the kitchen, so Noel smiled because of a nostalgic feeling, looking at this kitchen again.

He immediately left the kitchen with no door and walked through the hall way until he reached a certain door.

Without hesitation, he opened the door that wasn't locked at all. Anna was surprised that this door was unlocked, considering he had tried to open other doors and they were all locked.

Noel didn't even bother to explain it to her as he immediately went to the cupboard where his maid stored her clothes.

There were still some left over maid clothes inside as well as corset and underwear.

"What are you doing? Do you have that kind of hobby?" Anna's eyebrows twitched.

Noel just tossed the corset to her to shut her up while rummaging the closet, finding a huge ring at the very bottom. He immediately pulled it up and showed the thirty keys hanging on that ring.

"See? The mansion's keys." Noel smirked.

"Seriously? Shouldn't the one who have those keys are the master of the house, the head maid and the head butler?" Anna widened her eyes in shock.

"She is my maid, so of course, she will have one. If not, how could I live lazily in the past?" Noel shrugged. "I guess, there's an advantage why I was lazy in the past."

"Don't give an excuse just to boost your ego." Anna rolled her eyes.

"Whatever. With this, we can enter the mansion." Noel shrugged and walked away. This time, they left the living quarters with the front door before patching up the hole to make it look like no one came.

After that, Noel opened the door behind the mansion to enter.

"Now that we're here, where are we going to hide? We can only investigate this place in the morning, right? Since we don't want anyone to see the light inside the mansion."

"I'm going back to my room." Before Noel walked to his room on the second floor, he looked at Anna with a serious expression. "Though, I do want to warn you something. If I ask you to go out, I want you to go out."

"Huh?" Anna was confused. They were investigating this mansion together, so it didn't really make sense. However, there was one thing that reminded her. It was the family's secret room where they stored the most important items in the household. Hence, Anna nodded in agreement. "Alright."

Noel nodded and started walking to the second floor. No one seemed to be taking care of the mansion when he saw the dust on the carpet as well as other decorations inside.

It also meant that no one would bother to go inside the mansion.

'So, this is the Ardagan Family's mansion.' Anna looked around. When they reached the main stairs that led to the second floor, she was stopped by a huge painting.

It was a painting of a couple. Instead of Count Ardagan and his wife, there was another pair painted on this, signifying their importance to this family.

The man had spiky black hair and stern face. He wore a military uniform with a huge diamond star on his chest, signifying his status.

'Diamond star? If we're looking into the history of this kingdom, there was only one person bestowed a Diamond Star. He was Simeon Ardagan, the greatest commander in history, the one who led the Muivell Kingdom to its peak. He was also the creator of the Demon Extermination Army, which had changed its name to Demon Banner Army.

'Wait a minute. Demon Banner Army, Noel, and Simeon Ardagan. Are there connections between them? Is there a reason why Count Ardagan faked his death and sent Noel to the Demon Banner Army? Does he know something that no one knows about Simeon Ardagan?

'If you look at the painting again, that woman' Anna gasped, looking at the woman. She had long silver hair, different from the Sword Saint's white hair. She had a gentle gaze and wore a beautiful dress, but the blue-colored necklace on her neck didn't escape Anna's eyes.

'Isn't that the Blue Ocean Pearl? It's said to be the best to Spirit Conductor. Now that I think about it, I have seen her face somewhere There is almost no record about the Sword Saint's sister, but now that I think about it, I have seen her face in the Greenwood Kingdom's Royal Castle.

'Huh? Isn't she supposed to be the Greenwood Kingdom's princess? But her brother is the Sword Saint, right? I haven't heard anything about the Sword Saint being a royalty. This is weird, very weird. What a mess up family tree

'His ancestor is the greatest general in history, this is a known fact. However, I don't think there are many people who know that his ancestor's wife was a princess of the Greenwood Kingdom. And his ancestral uncle is actually the Sword Saint. What's wrong with this family?'

Anna clutched her head as she couldn't come up with a reason to connect all of them.

Noel glanced at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Is there any library in your mansion? We can read there with the Moon Blessing, right? There's no need for light."

"I have tried reading in the dark in the Sword Saint's tomb. The words are kinda blurry as if my eyes are not used to reading like that." Noel shook his head. "That's why I suggest to wait for the morning since we need light to read."

"Seriously? Why didn't I ask this question earlier because it was weird that we could see the dark with the Moon Blessing but we needed light to read?"

Noel shrugged. "I don't know the exact reason. I think the Moon Blessing is a kind of ability that enhances our eyes, but because our eyes are not built that way, we have a hard time adjusting to it. Have you ever read something inside a carriage?"

"Yeah. I felt sick because of the continuous b.u.mps on the road."

"I felt similar when I read using the Moon Blessing. It's fine for a while, but if you read for a few minutes or even hours, you will be like that. So, I'm going to bed early so that I can immediately investigate when the sun is up! Bye." Noel yawned while walking away.
