Then they stayed quietly in the shadow world, waiting for Estelle to appear in the world and start implementing the second half of the plan.
…
That morning in the Duke of Intiles's mansion, Wendini sat at the dining table and looked around. She turned her gaze to her mother and said in a puzzled tone:
"That dog... ahem, why hasn't Eros come to the restaurant for breakfast so late?"
After hearing this, Estelle's pretty eyebrows knitted slightly. She put down the hot milk in her hand and said with doubt in her tone:
"It's a little late. Normally, you should have arrived earlier."
Wendini's eyes rolled around, and he suddenly stood up and laughed:
"That lazy pig must still be lying in bed. I'm going to go and wake him up!"
After saying this, he ran off excitedly without waiting for Estelle to reply.
Looking at her daughter's departing back, Estelle's soft lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile.
Undine walked out of the restaurant humming a cheerful tune, and soon arrived at Eros' door.
She looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she quietly opened the door and then quietly went in.
After coming to the bed, she looked at the bulge in the quilt with a sly smile on her face, and directly reached out to lift the quilt on the bed, moaning as she lifted it:
"Wake up, lazy pig!"
However, there was nothing under the quilt!
Wendini pouted, looking a little disappointed. What? So he’s not here.
She immediately returned to the restaurant and told Estelle about this.
After listening to this, Estelle looked at her daughter and asked:
"Didn't he tell you where he was going?"
Wendini shook her head, indicating no, and looked at her mother in surprise:
"Didn't he tell you either?"
Estelle shook her head slowly, and when she saw that her mother also said no, Undine's little face showed some worry.
Because Eros would always tell them when he was going out, and if they didn't remind him in advance, he would basically be back before dinner time.
A situation like today, where we didn't make prior arrangements and didn't get back before dinner time, has never happened before.
Seeing the worry on her daughter's face, Estelle comforted her softly:
"Maybe he was just delayed by something. Let's wait a little longer, maybe he will come back."
After hearing her mother's comfort, Wendini bit her lower lip, suppressed the worries in her heart, and responded softly with "hmm".
But they waited until two o'clock in the afternoon, and Eros still didn't come back.
Wendy finally couldn't sit still anymore, her little face was full of anxiety and uneasiness, she stood up and looked at her mother and said:
"He must have encountered some problem, we have to go find him!"
Estelle's face was also solemn at this moment. After taking a deep breath, she didn't hesitate and stood up and walked out the door.
"Mom, where are you going?" Seeing her mother leaving, Wendini asked quickly.
"Go to church!" Estelle said concisely.
Undine was a little confused. Why did he go to the church when Eros was missing? Shouldn't he go to Eros?
Although she didn't understand Estelle's intention, she was sure that what her mother was doing must be related to Eros, so she quickly lifted her skirt and trotted after her, shouting as she ran:
"I'm going too!"
After walking out the door, Estelle spoke directly to the butler standing outside:
"Get the carriage ready!"
"Yes, ma'am!" The butler did not hesitate and immediately went to arrange a carriage.
Soon, Estelle and Undine arrived at the Samsara Church in the west of the inner city by carriage.
Ando Karamanda, the regional bishop of the Church of Reincarnation in Intiles, was also somewhat curious about Estelle's sudden visit.
However, after seeing the anxious look on the distinguished lady's face, he instantly realized that something might have happened, so he didn't bother to be polite and immediately asked:
"Ma'am! What happened?"
Estelle said in a panicked tone, "Eros is gone!"
"What?"
Bishop Ando's face changed drastically. He knew Eros' identity and what it meant, which was why he lost his composure.
Forcibly suppressing his inner anxiety, Bishop Ando looked at Estelle in front of him and said in a serious voice:
"Please tell me exactly what happened."
So, Estelle mentioned her discovery to Bishop Andor in front of her.
Then she emphasized that Eros would always inform her when he went out in the past, but not only did he not inform her last night, he didn't even come back for breakfast and lunch.
Bishop Ando took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "I will arrange for the Night Watch team right away... No, I will go there myself."
Soon, Bishop Andor personally brought a team of night watchmen and followed Estelle to the Duke's Palace.
After arriving at the door of Eros's room, Bishop Ando looked at the door and asked Estelle beside him:
"Your Highness returned to your room last night, right?"
Hearing this question, Estelle glanced at Undine beside her.
Undine sniffed. Although she didn't quite understand why her mother would ask the church to look for Eros, she couldn't care less about anything else at the moment.
So she nodded heavily and said, "I saw him enter the room with my own eyes last night."
At this time, a night watchman came in from outside. He walked up to Bishop Ando and reported:
"I asked the male and female servants on duty, and they all said that they did not see His Highness Eros go out last night."
