Chapter 658: Adopted as a Butler and the Hourglass Carved by the Dragon

There is no doubt that Aigelei is a very outstanding beautiful girl.

Both his face and figure are eye-catching. Although he is always wielding knives and guns, and does not have a girlish temperament, he has an awe-inspiring chivalry and is quite heroic.

When walking on the road, the beauty will definitely turn heads as much as Esdeath and Dotya.

However, other than that, she has no other advantages.

Although the level is as high as 60, which is enough to be considered a master in this world, it is not enough in front of these three people. Even Dotya can kill her with one fist.

In addition, Liu Xia is not the kind of person who likes women, and he has already controlled the king in terms of power, so Aigele has almost no value in Liu Xia's eyes.

"Well...there's no need to accept a disciple. After all, I'm still on the road to progress myself."

Lu Xia pondered like this. In fact, this was simply a lie. He had already reached the realm of Sword Saint, and it could be said that there was no way forward for the time being. It would not be a problem to accept a few disciples.

"But if you're just teaching swordsmanship, there's no need to recruit disciples. For example, during morning exercises, you can come to me as much as you like."

Before Aigelei could be completely disappointed, Liu Xia changed the subject, making Aigelei immediately overjoyed.

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Liangyi!"

Ai Ge Lei immediately stood up and said with a face full of surprise: "I will definitely not waste too much of your time, nor will I live up to your expectations. I will definitely become a powerful swordsman for you to see!"

No, I didn't have any expectations for you. Whether you become a powerful swordsman or not has nothing to do with me.

"By the way, Aigelei, you just said that you have certain management skills, right?"

Liu Xia said as if unintentionally: "In that case, as a housekeeper, you can help me take care of this manor. This will be regarded as your tuition."

Whether it is Lucia or Dotya, if you want to improve in alchemy and prop making, you will definitely need a large amount of alchemy materials, so you will definitely need to go out frequently to purchase them.

There is no need to do this kind of small errands by yourself. Since Aigelei said that she has management skills, then just leave the task of taking care of the chores to her.

Anyway, it was just a little instruction on her every day during morning exercises. When he was in Chaldea, he often gave instructions on Fujimaru Ritsuka's breathing techniques during morning exercises. It didn't take him long.

"Yes! Please leave it to me!"

Aigelei gave a standard knightly salute to Lucia, patted her chest and agreed, "I will definitely take care of this manor in order!"

Lucia nodded noncommittally.

Although this girl lacks flexibility, she is indeed very good and has full trust in him. She has no second thoughts and is just right to be used as a housekeeper.

After that, Lucia handed over most of her money to Aigele, and she managed the maids in the manor. She was responsible for all daily expenses, purchases, etc.

Later, Lucia gave her a list of the materials she and Dotya needed. Aigele immediately processed it, distributed the tasks to the maids, and promised that all purchases would be completed in the afternoon.

…………

After breakfast.

While the materials had not yet been purchased, Liu Xia left the manor and walked toward the outer city of the royal capital alone.

In the south of the outer city of the royal capital, on the edge of the town, there is a huge clock tower that is very eye-catching.

This clock tower is very tall, so it is naturally very conspicuous. Even if you can't identify the direction, you can easily touch the side of the clock tower.

After walking for about ten minutes, Liu Xia arrived at the clock tower with seemingly slow but fast steps.

The bell tower itself is built on the dome of a church-style building.

The door here is completely open, and it seems that you can come in and out at will. There are also a few people walking around here casually.

There is a team of nearly ten Royal Guards guarding this church-style building. These guards are scattered on the square in front of the building, their eyes scanning the passers-by, as if they are monitoring this situation.

When they saw Liu Xia's arrival, the guards were stunned, and then quickly averted their eyes, pretending not to see him. No one dared to look directly at him, and no one dared to come up to stop him.

Although there is no need to block it in the first place, this is a public place and anyone can enter except criminals.

Liu Xia walked into the church building unobstructed.

There is a middle-aged woman wearing a black nun's uniform standing guard next to the door. She seems to be the receptionist here. However, because there is no charge here and no entry or exit is allowed, she actually has nothing to do.

The moment she saw Liu Xia, she also had a look of surprise on her face. However, she was not a royal guard and did not know Liu Xia's identity. She was simply amazed by Liu Xia's near-perfect appearance.

After entering the church, Lucia walked up the spiral staircase and soon reached the top of the bell tower.

A huge hourglass is placed here.

The main body of the hourglass is about seven meters high and two stories high. It has a lot of decorations on the exterior, with gold and silver trimmings. The overall look easily leaves a sacred impression on people.

The sand inside is red for some reason and is flowing downward through the holes.

However, there is still a lot of sand left in the upper part. Judging from the speed of the loss, it may take at least more than twenty days before the sand inside will completely flow to the bottom.

"This is the hourglass carved by the dragon."

Liu Xia looked up at the huge hourglass and silently observed the condition of the hourglass. "I can't see anything special, but this hourglass can predict the arrival time of the wave. There is no doubt that it has some connection with the wave..."

He could vaguely see that the sand in the hourglass seemed a little strange. Just looking directly at the red sand, he felt like he was being seduced to bring out the instinct deep in his heart.

But beyond that, he could see nothing.

"There is no specific time displayed. In other words, only when the sand inside has fallen almost completely can we barely guess the specific time when the wave arrives..."

According to Liu Xia's understanding, the hourglass carved by the dragon will start to operate a month before the arrival of the wave, and the sand inside will begin to flow downward, as a warning to the world.

Then after a month, the sand inside will be completely lost to the lower part.

And the moment all the sand is lost, the wave will come, and endless monsters will appear from the cracks in the sky and begin to invade the world and kill the residents of this world.
