Vol 2 Chapter 644: Lien's request

"It looks like you know their origins." Viscount Victor's expressions and movements meant something deeper in Heliga's eyes. And Viscount Victor's next words undoubtedly confirmed this.
"Well... the existence of "association" is a fact that we have known many years ago. Victor nodded, "In the case of the Imperial Guerrilla Association being attacked, I also helped a little bit, and I still have some understanding of their existence. "
"The matter is very complicated, and why the saint of the empire became the apostle of the "association" is also a very puzzling thing... The fact that she can live more than two hundred years is even stranger than her attitude. . "Heliga said, "However, as far as I know, the current manpower of the "Association" is basically devoted to Crossbell's side. Although I don't believe that they will not do anything to the empire, at least it should be safe for now. . "
"As for "association", one minute can't let down one's guard. Viscount Victor disagreed with this point, "I know you beat them once when you were in Libel... But their original purpose was just to get what they needed, and then retreat. "
"It makes sense." Heliga nodded, ""Project Phantom Flame"...what the is it. "
"...However, I seem to have the answer to the purpose of that little girl's trip. It's just that she may not be enough alone. I don't know what the idea is."
"She has two companions of similar strength to her... and the three of them seem to have a special formation. Once used, it seems that they can even fight the "Sword Emperor". "
"That's enough," Victor said cheerfully, "Actually... it's about Ron Green City."
"Oh?" Heliga asked curiously, "Is there a problem with that castle?"
"Yeah. Although I haven't told Laura yet, with the permission of His Royal Highness, I checked the royal library and found the answer." Victor nodded, "That ancient city was once the residence of an undead lord. Later, it was wiped out because of the existence of "The Saint of the Spear", and then it was sealed by an occultist-the rumors about that occultist did not stay. However, this ancient city still has a large amount of aura belonging to the underworld, so for a period of time, as long as the earth veins change, there will be some monsters that do not exist in the real world in a short time. "
"So what I met back then was..." Heliga remembered that many years ago, when the power of the "Dragonborn" that he hadn't realized at the time was first used by him, the various things in the ancient city All kinds of ghosts and fire monsters.
"Well... after that time, I often entrusted Thorval and the guerrillas, as well as some protégés who have returned from wandering, who have reached the level of mid pass, to survey to see if I can find any clues. I myself occasionally do so. Go and see, but it’s never happened again. It’s just that once or twice, there seems to be suspicious wreckage in some upper areas of the ancient city.
Viscount Victor showed a suddenly realized expression,
I think about it now, once. As a saint, she should know her hometown very well, so naturally she also knows that this ancient city will have problems of this and that from time to time, so after almost an accident, she will do it herself, or let her subordinates do it. To get rid of the threat here."
"So, why didn't I see Laura, Grandpa Claus, and I when we encountered the situation?" Viscount Victor's guess can be explained. There is only one question. Heliga has been I couldn't figure it out.
"I don't know about this. The little purple-haired girl with you and the strange black cat may be able to answer your questions."
"Huh, you can see it as expected. Although she has deliberately hidden it." Heliga smiled. The eyesight of "Swordsman of Light" is indeed top-notch, "However, I haven't planned to The matter is clear...After all, there are various reasons behind it. It is still unclear whether she and the forces behind her are good or bad for us. But what is certain is that this is also part of the history and heritage of the empire, and Things seem quite complicated...If you are not sure, I think it’s better not to act without authorization."
"You may know more about "association" than me. I originally suspected that the little girl was from there... but it doesn't seem to be. Viscount Victor smiled, "In short, it is to deal with the occasional problems in the ancient city, or to step on it in advance for the next step of the association... Since it has been found, you can't just leave it alone. I will find a way to deal with her. As for you... just enjoy this so-called internship--"
Before Viscount Victor finished speaking, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Challenge the "Swordsman of Light"? "Juses and Laura asked in unison, "Li En, do you know what you are talking about?" "
"It's okay if you ask for advice..." Gaius also asked worriedly.
There are reasons why these three people reacted so strongly. First of all, Li En himself was only the first biography of "Eight Leaves and One Sword Art", and the "Swordsman of Light" who had already reached the ultimate state were not at the same level. They are not in the same position, and the difference in strength is even more like that of a feather. Under such circumstances, the one with low martial arts cultivation will "challenge" the one with high martial arts cultivation, which means more than disrespect. , It also means some kind of very rude provocation. According to ancient unwritten regulations, the so-called "challenge" is a large-scale duel that is allowed without showing the ultimate killer move. However, even so, the accidental injury caused by some reasons in the actual operation is absolutely not few. The most important thing is that Lien suddenly knocked on the door of Viscount Victor without any mental preparation, and raised this in front of the surprised Heliga and Viscount Victor. request.
Of course, it was beyond everyone's expectation, but Heliga was not included—what the "Swordsman of Light" accepted readily.
"Don't stop me, Laura. I have already figured it out." However, Li En, who has always been a good person, rejected Laura's statement very firmly this time, ""Swordsmith of Light"... …Just now, I was completely convinced. "
"..." Viscount Victor opened the sword case that kept the "Jaran Shire", the sword that the Alside family had inherited for hundreds of years, with a calm expression.
