Capítulo 363: Marionette Show

Austria, August 24th 1803

Lukas and Erik entered the room right before David closed the door behind them.

David turned to them, rubbing his hands. "It truly is an honor to have you here. We will not let you down. Please, meet our other puppeteer," he said, gesturing to a few people nearby, preparing the stage.

There were two men there, making the last adjustments to the stage. They immediately stood up, and bowed before them.

"Lord Lukas, Lord Erik. It is a huge honor to be here, and have the opportunity to entertain the children of the Von Neumann house," one of the men said.

The other man nodded his head in agreement. "Likewise," he added.

Both Lukas and Erik nodded their heads. While Lukas was showing a formal smile, Erik looked a bit more gleeful.

Erik widened his smile even more. "Oh my, do not be so humble! You are excellent professionals who were picked by me for that," he said.
