“So, I’m worried, does the appearance of this Evil God mean there’s something wrong with the underground seal, or is the other side planning to destroy the seal?”
“Lord Rein, thank you for reporting such important intelligence.”
“Thank you, General Augustus. As an Imperial Sword Bearer, this is my duty,” Rein smiled slightly.
“Lord Rein, do you have anything else to add?” Tatia stopped writing, smiled and said.
After thinking for a moment, Rein said again: “Before Staven’s soul dissipated, he told me that behind the attempt to assassinate me, it’s actually Isodre School masterminding.”
“Of course, this is just Staven’s claim, I currently have no evidence.”
“I’m just somewhat skeptical about whether the Isodre School on the Shirendil Plateau really fulfilled their oversight responsibilities.”
“Additionally, it seems the Sect Leader Graham of the Tutkash School has probably fallen. Well… that’s all.”
“Thank you, Lord Rein, the headquarters will quickly evaluate the corresponding points reward based on your report.” Tatia quickly jotted down.
“Tatia, send a copy of the situation reported by Lord Rein to Grand Astromancer Dalain later.” General Augustus said solemnly.
“Understood, sir.”
…
When the meeting concluded, Rein met Olena, who was waiting by the meeting room door. He immediately thought of something and said: “Lord Olena, I have something to discuss.”
“Lord Rein, please go ahead.” Olena took out a palm-sized notebook and a quill, preparing to record.
“Please contact the provincial branches near the Ferdinand Forest region. I want to gather the latest movements and key intelligence on the Cult Mother Tree Sect there.”
“Moreover, check if the headquarters has any Sword Bearers sent to the Elf Territory for special missions, and if so, understand the specific workflow.”
Due to various historical entanglements, the Elf Clan maintains an unusually wary attitude towards humans.
The Elf Clan, aside from keeping the sole embassy in Imperial City Tamriel as a communication point with humans, remains almost isolated from the world.
Therefore, even if Rein wishes to go to Ferdinand Forest to assist Anna, it’s not that simple and depends on the elves’ attitude.
Moreover, as a race with a history far longer than humans, many individuals in the Elf Clan possess long lifespans and formidable power.
Rein doesn’t believe that just a single Mother Tree Sect can cause significant harm to the Elf Clan. Generally speaking, Anna shouldn’t have any safety issues.
“Understood, Lord Rein, I’ll contact them right away.”
….
When Rein returned to the residence, his sister Bo He quickly found him, looking dismayed and said: “Brother, Sister Anna left again. Do you know when she’ll come back?”
“Don’t worry! Anna should be back soon.” Rein slowly squatted down, smiled, and gently ruffled Bo He’s hair, comforting her.
“Last time you also said that, but Anna took more than half a year to come.”
“If Sister Anna doesn’t return within a month, I’ll go find her and bring her back, alright?” Seeing Bo He still unhappy, Rein continued.
“Okay!” Bo He brightened up at her brother’s promise, her eyes curved like crescent moons.
…
Early the next morning, Rein arrived at the Bixiu Mechanization School station.
Inside Mentor Mogaro’s office.
“Eh? Rein, did you complete this mission so quickly?” Mogaro was quite surprised that Rein returned to the Imperial City in just three days.
Normally, for a Sword Bearer to complete a task in a week’s time is considered fast.
“There was a bit of a mishap, so I came back early. By the way, mentor, I tested the Hellfire Demon Statue during actual combat, and it’s very effective.”
“Haha, as long as it works!” Mogaro was very pleased with his prized disciple’s words, stroking his red beard.
“By the way, did you bring the statue back this time? Let me know if there’s anything that needs improvement.” On the topic of the statue, Mogaro’s interest soared.
“Uh… it self-destructed.” Rein said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
After all, his Hellfire Demon Statue took a lot of time and effort from Mentor Mogaro, along with significant help from Audrey and Alicia, to complete quickly.
“What! What exactly happened?” Mogaro stood up in shock, asking.
“It’s like this…”
When Rein recounted that the Hellfire Demon Statue’s self-destruction directly took out a Legendary Peak stitched creature, Mogaro’s face no longer showed any pained expression, instead laughing heartily.
“Great! Great! That’s excellent!”
“I never imagined that a statue made by me, Mogaro, would one day eliminate a Legendary Peak-level stitched monster.” Mogaro’s face was flushed with excitement as he paced back and forth in the room.
He took out a bottle of Bordeaux Aged Wine from the cupboard, pulled open the stopper and directly drank from the bottle.
Mogaro drank half the bottle before remembering something, and said: “Rein, want to have a swig too? Hic…”
“Thank you, mentor, I’ll pass.” Rein showed a slight bitter smile, shook his head.
“Alright then, since it self-destructed, let’s make another one. So, after this actual combat, do you think there’s any area where the statue needs improvement?” Mogaro calmed his excitement and asked.
Rein had already thought about it before coming.
