They all call me master

Malinda's endless questions made Arthur sigh in his heart.

It’s not that I couldn’t guess what Malinda asked.

But he guessed what Malinda asked, and Arthur sighed.

Undoubtedly, Malinda, just like Melville, believed that the layout in front of her was to draw out Melville himself - but in fact?

His trip to the 'Ymir Manor' in Nanlos was just to cover up the completion of the ritual [Cat Orange].

All this after?

It’s all just incidental!

However, Malinda's inquiry in front of him made Arthur begin to re-evaluate the weight of Melville, one of the "Sixteen Staff Group" whose [spirituality] was out of control, in the heart of the Earl of Nanlos.

Obviously, he only saw Melville's out-of-control side and failed to notice Melville's hidden value.

But if Melville had hidden value, why did the countess 'release' him?

This situation should be monitored carefully.

unless……

Only the released Melville is valuable.

So what did Melville do when he was released?

Suddenly, the young 'psychic medium' thought of something——

Melville, who was released, contacted the Anzi hiding outside Nanlos, who were the attackers just now.

It is not easy to find these people on weekdays. Only by relying on high-level secret agents like Melville can we gather them together and catch them all.

Of course, this is only on the surface.

It was the countess's excuse to the outside world.

In fact, what the countess wanted was...

Let Melville kill the fellow travelers!

Melville's companions were all people from the 'Sixteenth Staff Group', the 'Sixty-sixth Staff Group' and the ordinary 'Staff Group'.

According to Amuir, the '16 Staff Group' are sixteen mysterious people from various forces, while the '66 Staff Group' are the think tanks from all walks of life in Nanlos.

As for the ‘staff group’, it’s even more of a mixed bag, with all kinds of people there.

Although such a complex 'staff' seems to cover all aspects of Nanlos, it is precisely because it includes all aspects of Nanlos that the Earl of Nanlos feels constrained, especially when something happens that damages the staff. When it comes to the interests of himself or the force he represents, things will happen that the Earl of Nanlos absolutely does not want to see.

But getting rid of these aides is not an easy thing.

The composition of the staff has long been deeply rooted, and the staff has penetrated into all aspects of Nanlos, forming an extremely special 'interest group', and the slightest contact will cause turmoil in Nanlos.

So, either don't move.

Either...

One move and it was a thunderous strike!

But it is unrealistic to directly kill these staff.

Doing so will only ruin your reputation.

The Earl of Nanlos knew it very well.

Therefore, the other party needs a knife.

A knife named Melville.

Using the excuse that Melville's [spirituality] was out of control, he killed the staff who were gradually losing control and regained control of the situation.

Moreover, in order to ensure that the deaths of these aides who are gradually out of control will be unclear, the earl will secretly contact one or a few of them with more status before departure and inform them of the mission - 'Keep an eye on Melville. Continue to search the old lion's hidden child outside South Los'!

With such an order, these staff can go on the road with peace of mind.

The young 'spiritual medium' can be sure that the Earl of Nanlos had such an idea after Freeman revealed the 'warning chess piece' that Melville had used to create suspicion.

Moreover, it has been arranged secretly.

To put it simply, regardless of whether the 'warning chess piece' pointed to Melville or not, the fate of Melville and his staff was already doomed.

Even if there was no 'Ymir Manor' trip this time, other events would have happened.

‘It’s really a tiger that eats people without spitting out their bones! ’

Arthur sighed from the bottom of his heart. He had never underestimated any noble, but he was still surprised by Tigress's methods. At this moment, Arthur even suspected that the so-called "reclusive life" of Earl of Nanlos was a strategy to lure these guys to show up on their own initiative.

However, deep down he was surprised, but on the surface the young psychic was very calm.

He said in a calm tone——

"at the very beginning."

"Humph, I knew it!"

Malinda snorted, but she was not really angry.

On the contrary, the lady looked at Arthur with more and more admiration.

She picked up the pipe, took a deep breath, and said——

"At the end of the 'Silver Age', the master alchemist 'Ms. Abel' turned around and devoted herself to 'potions' in order to pay tribute to her idol 'Master Herc'. This master had extremely high talents and was financed by the Nanlos family. Next, they made rapid progress, not only perfecting the Nanlos family's 'Glory Potion' to make it more effective, but also completing the three magic potion formulas owned by the Nanlos family - 'Cat Pie Black' was obtained After this secret news, you decided to live in seclusion in Nanlos, right?

As an earlier bloodline, the 'Kratos family' naturally understands the importance of bloodline.

Similarly, the 'Kratos Family' understands that not every awakened clan member can perfectly inherit the bloodline.

Therefore, you need the ‘Glory Potion’!

And what is a better choice than the ‘Glory Potion’?

Naturally, it is the 'Glory Potion' perfected by 'Ms. Abel' of the Nanlos family! "

As she said that, Malinda stared straight at Arthur, with a look on her face that said she had seen through you.

Arthur shook his head with a straight face.

"Unfounded speculation!"

The young 'psychic medium' replied.

Looking at this scene, Malinda raised the corner of her mouth.

She knew she was right.

She finally caught a little 'trace' of the man in front of her.

Seeing Malinda's smile, Arthur rolled his eyes.

‘Ah, yes, yes!

Everything you said is right!

This is what the Kratos Family thinks. It has been planned like this since my grandfather. If my parents had not died unexpectedly, the Kratos Family would have started planning long ago! ’

Arthur groaned inwardly.

However, Arthur was somewhat concerned about the 'Ms. Abel' mentioned in Malinda's words.

If there are no accidents, this lady is the one who created [Wand Fighting Technique].

There may be people with the same name, but the title of 'Master Alchemist' is not common.

But what is unexpected is that this lady actually also takes care of 'potions'. And if she pays tribute to Herc, could there be something hidden in [Wand Combat Technique]?

Arthur thought.

And looking at Arthur who was thinking, Malinda became more and more sure of her guess.

The woman who thought she had found the reason why the Kratos family appeared in South Los was in a good mood, and she took two puffs of cigarette happily.

The coolness of mint contained in the smoke made Arthur look up, and the lady smiled and said -

"When you return to Nanlos, the 'Glory Potion' improved by Ms. Abel will be yours."

Now……

Can you tell us about your follow-up plans?

I don’t believe that your purpose in participating in the ‘Nanlos Swordsmanship Competition’ is just for the title of ‘Knight’! "
