As a Sword Saint, I Want to Be a Demon King

"I thought you two were friends."

From this tone, he is obviously one of the insiders!

"friend?"

The imperial admiral smiled sarcastically:

"This kind of words... Do you believe it yourself?"

Chapter 330 The Seventh Opportunity to Counterattack!

"—we're just using each other, just like you and me."

Umpton put down his glass and said slowly:

"You need someone to support you in the council, and I need a big credit... What credit is more eye-catching than killing a few sages?"

When he said these words, a golden halo shone faintly on his body, obviously setting up a sound barrier around him.

Such intimate conversations are common at banquets and do not arouse suspicion.

"You are probably the first Imperial Marshal ever to work with a magician."

A smile appeared on Moses' indifferent face, and he raised his glass to him:

"So--"

"Wish us a happy cooperation?"

Seeing his actions, Ampton also smiled.

Then their wine glasses collided in the air, announcing the start of a terrifying conspiracy.

……

……

"Obviously, Moses was also involved in this."

After reading the image left by the recording crystal, Bazel interpreted it silently for a while.

Then start to analyze the cause and effect of the event:

"However, he thought he was shrewd and careful, and in the end he was tricked by the imperial people."

"Most of those soul parasites were brought in by him, but he didn't know that the empire had teamed up with the Black Witch, and the Black Witch is an expert in souls, so it was easy to hide it from him."

"You mean... Moses is the leader of the anti-magic society?"

The silver-haired girl said in surprise:

"But isn't he a sage? Why establish such an organization?"

"You should have already seen that Moses is very abnormal, to the extreme."

Bazel shook his head and said:

"I don't know what he has experienced before...but it is difficult to speculate on the thinking of this kind of person with common sense."

"Country, race, friendship, kinship, love... none of these are the first things in his heart;"

"What he really wants, others can't guess at all."

"—Fairnes this country is rotten."

The silver-haired girl shook her head and said:

"The so-called sages are all such bastards."

"Hehe, there are still exceptions."

Bazel had a rare good word for the Magic Kingdom:

"Sven is a high-level leader with a good heart. Unfortunately, because of this, he has become a thorn in the side of some people."

"That's why the Empire and the Black Witch must get rid of people like him."

The silver-haired girl said coldly:

"The soul parasitism plan must have been in progress for a long time... The matter of the Poltan Kingdom was just an accident, and we became their pawns unintentionally."

"But now...we finally have a chance to fight back!"

"Oh? How do you want to fight back?"

Bazel asked her with great interest.

"Did you notice what Umpton said?"

Silver Haired Girl says:

"He first said that Moses needed support... and then [what credit is more eye-catching than killing a few sages]."

"From these two sentences, we can roughly infer their plan."

"what's the plan?"

Bazel encouraged;

"Tell me."

"For the time being, I only guessed two possibilities."

The silver-haired girl replied:

"The first is that they want to use these nine people to do something, and the result of the matter may lead to the death of other sages."

"However... Unless Moses really wants to destroy Farnes, he shouldn't kill his colleagues in such a frenzied way."

"He is a smart man who understands his value; once Farnes no longer exists, his biggest bargaining chip will be gone, and the Imperials will no longer treat him as an equal partner."

"The second possibility is that Moses intends to pass an important decision in the council of sages, but the number of votes for it is not enough, so he controls these nine people."

"After achieving his goal, he will directly kill these 9 people and hand them over to Ampton; this will not leave any evidence, and it will also contribute to Ampton's promotion to marshal, which is a win-win outcome."

After hearing her words, Bazel nodded with a smile:

"If it is a general situation, your judgment is basically the truth;"

"Unfortunately, as I said just now, Moses cannot be judged by common sense, and no one knows what he thinks."

"To be honest, I'd love to expose their plot right now."

The silver-haired girl sighed:

"But this way, you won't be able to know what the enemy wants to do... I always feel a little pity."

"That's right, torture is meaningless to Moses. This kind of person will kill himself if something goes wrong, and don't even think about asking anything."

Bazel touched his chin and pondered:

"Well, let's wait and see what happens and see what their intentions are."

"Our biggest advantage at present is that the enemy does not know that the plan has been fully exposed, so they will act recklessly and it is easy to see the real target."

The two quietly retreated from the high-rise building.

Then Bazel returned to his hiding place, and the silver-haired girl returned to the academy dormitory.

After closing the door, the puppet is lying on the bed covered with a quilt and waiting.

She doesn't need to sleep, and she just pretends to lie there, and she will wake up immediately when someone approaches.

"Master, you are back."

The puppet sat up and said in a cool tone.

Then I wanted to climb out of bed and go back to the box in the corner.

——In order to avoid being discovered, the two of them cannot stay together for a long time.

"Let's get out of here."

Egwene tossed her the camouflage robe and mask:

"The academy will be very dangerous in the future, so don't come here for now."

The two left in a hurry and rushed to the home of the skinny rich businessman.

This was the place where she hid the orc children, and was protected by the subordinates of the men in black, so it was considered a fairly safe place.

"basement?"

Hearing her request, the rich businessman looked at the puppet wearing a magic robe and covering his face with a strange expression:

"Are you sure that your friend can live in the basement? I still have a lot of spare rooms here..."

"She's a spy, and she can't be noticed at ordinary times."

Silver Haired Girl says:

"There is no need to send her food and water, as long as there is a place to hide."

"I see."

Hearing that it was a spy, the rich businessman showed a clear expression:

"Come here, please."

Although the silver-haired girl said that as long as she could hide, he still provided a pretty good underground dark room.

There are beds, bathrooms, and water sources inside... There are also a lot of dry food stored, and people can hide in it for at least a year.

Probably because too many things had happened recently, Aiwen's eyelids would fight as soon as she touched the bed, so she just lay down on the bed and rested.

"Don't stay in the box, come sleep with me."

Seeing the puppet consciously curled up in the corner, she couldn't bear it, and patted her side.

But after closing my eyes and sleeping for a while, I felt something was wrong.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he found that the puppet had arrived above him at some point, and gently pressed his forehead against his head.

"What are you doing?"
