Chapter 879

After leaving the palace, Carissa spoke to Rafael about the matter while they were in the carriage.

Rafael recalled a report from Jacob, who had people monitoring both Edgeview Estate and Hartstone. Estate. Ever since the rebellion case, Hartstone Estate had been eerily quiet and Harvey seldom ventured out. He had only left his estate two or three times, each time for a drink with someone. After a couple of outings, he had stopped altogether.

“There’s a possibility that Harvey isn’t ill at all but has actually left the capital,” Rafael said, furrowing his brow. “Even though our people have been keeping a close watch on Hartstone Estate, there’s bound to be a lapse after so long. If Harvey has changed his appearance or disguised himself, he might go unnoticed.”

“Where would he go at this time?” Carissa asked.

“Let’s get back to the estate first,” Rafael replied, running the current situation through his mind and forming a hypothesis.

Tonight, Hell Monarch Estate was lively, with the staff from Northwatch Estate joining them for the New Year’s Eve dinner. However, the Klein family hadn’t sent Ryan back. They were aware that there was a banquet at the palace, and since Ryan would have needed to stay behind at Hell Monarch Estate anyway, it was better for him to celebrate with the Klein family,

After they returned to Hell Monarch Estate, the atmosphere was vibrant, with everyone coming to collect their New Year’s gifts. Carissa was generous, leaving everyone delighted with their rewards.

Later, Rafael, Jacob, and Kyle retreated to the study. Carissa didn’t follow them, as they would be fine without her.

The activities at Hell Monarch Estate were far more entertaining than those at the palace. Travis showcased a series of martial arts moves and swordplay, earning himself twenty silver coins. Luke joined in on the fun, singing a song that had everyone laughing and covering their ears.

“It’s too awful! I demand compensation for my ears!”

Luke thrived on such teasing. It didn’t bother him if others found his singing terrible–he believed it sounded good enough. Even if he had to pay for it, he would still sing. Originally intending to perform one song, he took the crowd’s reaction as a challenge and belted out three consecutive songs, each more out of tune than the last, leaving Violet and Carissa in stitches, tears streaming down their cheeks from laughing so hard.

The servants each showcased their own talents–pitching arrows, throwing darts, climbing trees, and cutting paper. Even those who usually swept the floors demonstrated their speed in cleaning.

Violet rubbed her cheeks as she laughed. “I can’t take it anymore! For a few coins, they’re really going all

out.”

With his chest puffed out, Travis declared, “I can do something even more difficult!”

The high–difficulty acts earned ten silver coins, while the standard performances only brought in one.

“What will you do that’s difficult?” Violet asked, her laughter turning her voice hoarse.

His eyes sparkling with excitement, Travis replied, “Eating a basin of noodles for ten silver coins, or

drinking a whole jar of wine for the same!”

“Dream on!” Carissa and Violet laughed together, shaking their heads.

“Five silver coins!” He raised his hand and held up five fingers. “Five silver coins for eating noodles and drinking. What do you say?”

Violet threw a piece of candy at him. “Do you want to die from overeating or from drunkenness? Jacob gave you a decent amount of money this year. Are you really that greedy for another five silver coins?”

Travis opened his mouth to catch the candy. “You can never have too much money! Besides, it’s easy money. Why wouldn’t I want it?”

The thought of eating and drinking while pocketing money was too good to pass up.

Realizing he had no hope of convincing them further, he sat down. “In a few days, I need to head back to Meadow Ridge to visit my mentor. At the same time, I’ll be bringing some money back there.”

“Sure, go ahead,” Carissa replied.

“Vivi, don’t you want to go back too? We could go together,” Travis suggested.

Violet thought for a moment before replying, “If I go back to the Inferno Guild, I’ll have to visit my family. It’s that, or I don’t visit either place at all. I have to be fair about these things.”

“Well, you can go to both places. It’s not like you have much else going on right now.”

Violet took a stance and crossed her arms. “What do you mean I don’t have anything going on? I have three apprentices! They’re definitely coming to visit me for New Year’s!”

“You sure are something.” Travis grumbled. Then, his eyes lit up. “Your three apprentices come from good families, so they’re bound to bring you lots of gifts! You wouldn’t want them anyway, so just give them all to me. I’ll take them back for my mentor.”

“You’re as greedy as ever, Violet replied, rolling her eyes.
