Chapter 359: Chapter 173 Your Hairstyle is Very Dangerous_2
"I’ll have you copy the text as punishment next time I assign homework!"
Twenty minutes later, a medium-sized passenger plane landed on the runway, turned onto the taxiway, and stopped about ten meters in front of the Honor Guards.
The Honor Guards pushed over the gangway, and the delegation from the Moonlight Church officially arrived in Lundan.
Still a fifteen-person entourage, leading them was Philomena, her beautiful face obscured by a veil, stepping off the gangway with an air of elegance and immediately looking toward the Windsor Honor Guards.
The Magic Department Vice Minister, Legendary Mage, member of the Tulip Family, Ivette Collins, Windsor spared no effort, giving full face to the Moonlight Church.
The same was for when Hefei was appointed Regional High Priest, but she didn’t get this kind of treatment back then.
But soon, a look of shock froze on Philomena’s face as she saw a familiar figure beside Ivette — it was none other than her lifesaver, Jack.
What was he doing here?
Were the relations between Windsor and the Heavenly Father’s Court so good, they could get someone to speak in their favor?
No, that uniform...
A succession of thoughts flashed through Philomena’s mind followed closely by countless schemes and plots. She suppressed the shock in her heart, slowly shifting her gaze from the familiar face.
So that’s it, there’s no Jack, it was an overreaction on her part!
Philomena felt awful, like she was being played in circles. In the end, the Magic Department still got the trade item, and she had to thank them.
Fine, fine, the honest person deserves to be bullied, right!
The mature and beautiful lady didn’t show her anger or happiness, conversing pleasantly with the smiling face of Dorin.
After an unproductive conversation that stranded Ivette for a full ten minutes, she maintained her smile the entire time. As a Legendary Mage, she really showed respect.
If it wasn’t for the country behind her, who would willingly demean themselves like this!
Ten minutes later, Philomena led her team to the front of the Honor Guards and bowed to the Legendary Mage, Ivette, saying, "Respected Legendary Mage, Lady Ivette Collins, Golden Mage Philomena Ursula is greatly honored by your reception."
She only spoke of Mage Rank, showing respect from a junior to a senior and never mentioning the powers behind them.
Ivette smiled back, "High Priest, you must be weary from your journey. On behalf of the Windsor Magic Department, I welcome your arrival."
"You’re too kind, just calling me by my name, Philomena, will do..."
As she spoke, Philomena looked at Wayne and said with a playful smile, "And this Golden Mage here, sir, you look very familiar. Have we met before?"
"Maybe, my features are quite common; every other person resembles me to some extent," Wayne replied with an awkward smile, avoiding her piercing gaze.
"It seems I’ve mistaken someone else for you," Philomena said, still smiling.
Ivette, sensing something amiss, swiftly interjected, "High Priest, Mister Wayne is a member of the Magic Department and comes from the Tulip Family. To show Her Majesty’s welcome, Mister Wayne has been specially ordered to act as a Brand Ambassador from the Magic Department. For the coming period, he will be your guide, showing you the magnificent sights of Lundan, and I believe you will come to love this city."
Wayne inwardly groaned, ’That’s enough, no need to sell it any further, she’s practically sparkling.’
"So, it’s Mister Wayne~~~"
Philomena’s laugh was particularly genuine, "May I boldly ask, just as a guide?"
Ivette, unaware of the hidden meaning behind the smile, continued to promote Wayne, "He’s not only a guide but also represents the goodwill of the Magic Department. We hope that through him, we can resolve any misunderstandings between us."
"Thank you for the introduction, I am very, very much looking forward to it." Philomena winked at Wayne, being quite flirtatious.
Ivette nodded, satisfied, ’That look is too flirtatious, true to a scion of the Lando Family, polite upfront, shrewd behind the scenes, especially with women.’
’Do well, young man. The future of our nation is in your hands now!’
’This is settled!’
"High Priest, please follow me, the Magical Department Headquarters has organized a banquet to honor all of you..."
...
The scene shifted to the convoy arriving at the white office building of the Magical Department Headquarters in the West District.
Chris and the others did not have the standing to attend and disbursed to their homes after picking up the arrivals. Wayne too wished to go home, but he couldn’t, staying by Ivette’s side, his smile so constant it nearly froze on his face.
The welcome banquet started at afternoon tea time and lasted until eight o’clock at night.
In the interim, Philomena was invited to the office for a delightful chat with Ivette. No one knew exactly what they discussed, but both seemed very satisfied.
Philomena accepted the traitor’s narrative, promising not to be aggressive during the investigation, while Ivette expressed respect for the Moonlight Church, not wishing to prolong matters and assuring a satisfactory response.
At the end of the banquet, Philomena claimed her poor tolerance for alcohol and returned to the hotel to rest.
Wayne breathed a secret sigh of relief, managing a final smile. Regardless, the day was over.
As for what to do tomorrow...
It was tomorrow’s Wayne who would be unlucky, not his current concern.
"Ivette, I am not familiar with Lundan; I might lose my way going straight back to the hotel. Could I trouble Mister Wayne to show me the way?"
Ever since leaving the office, Philomena and Ivette had been on a first-name basis, seemingly getting along splendidly.
"Certainly, he’s your guide and at your service at all times," Ivette said, her words laden with meaning.
Philomena picked up on the unusual undertone, suspecting a misunderstanding but chose not to explain, simply nodding and expressing gratitude for the Magic Department’s hospitality.
She was extremely pleased with the arrangement, hardly able to wait to return to her hotel.
