Bab 605: 605 Dinner Meeting

Minister William escorted them to a large hall where a single long table was set up with a throne at the head, and dozens of ministers in elaborate formal wear milling around, waiting on the signal to sit for the meal.

"William, so good of you to fetch the Magi, but who is this lovely young lady? Has the Patriarch found himself a consort already? It hasn't even been a day." One of the attendees asked.

"That is Investigator Rail, who has been assigned to accompany him for the duration of his stay with us. You should recognize her by now, she has been investigating incidents in the castle for over a decade." William replied, and the man did a double take.

"It really is you. My apologies, Investigator. I didn't recognize you in that outfit. Tell me, has the change of duties led to a change of fashion sense? If so, I wholeheartedly approve." The man told Rail with a lewd wink.
