Tim and the butler soon returned and reported to Klein, who was playing the role of Admiral Emilius, that they had found a "scammer" trait in the warehouse.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the property, Odis said to Klein, "Please give me a space where I can't be disturbed."
Klein then arranged a reception room for Odis and ordered that no one should disturb him.
Upon arriving at the reception room, Odis had a servant bring him a hat belonging to Cynthia and instructed his steward to send someone to buy some herbs.
Then he removed the lining of the hat and began to draw a magic circle inside it. He then took out the "Alchemy Glasses," which had a level 1 seal item level, from the "Wilderness of Knowledge," put them on, and embedded the "Trickster" characteristic into the magic circle.
In this way, something that resembled both a magical object and an extraordinary weapon was completed.

Next, Odis used the "miracle medicine production line" she had previously prepared to infuse the prepared medicines with spirituality, giving the herbs magical effects.
...
Klein, waiting for news in his office, felt somewhat helpless: He wondered what Emilius would think when he returned. He had only been gone for two or three days, yet his brother had been dismissed and his mistress had been defiled.
He slightly curled the corners of his mouth: This mission will be over tomorrow, and what happens after that is none of my business.
At that moment, Klein's spirituality suddenly became aware, as if the spirituality around him had changed.
He got up and used his spiritual sense to carefully sense the direction from which "Mr. Gal" was located: What special ability was "Mr. Gal" using? Or a special sealing artifact?
A few minutes later, Odis returned and said, "General, it's ready."
Klein grunted in agreement and instructed a servant to summon Cynthia.
Odis said to Cynthia, whose eyes were red from crying, "There is a solution. You will have to wear this hat on your head for the next month or two, and when you sleep, you will have to hang something directly above you."
"And these three doses of medicine, starting today, take one dose every day, and you should be fine in three days."
After handing over the hat, he added, "I've kept this hat with me for the past year or two, and I wear it for a few days whenever I feel unwell."
"Most importantly, stop praying to the 'Mother Tree of Desire'! If you continue to pray to it, no one can save you!"
The magic circle inside the hat can sever the connection with the starry sky, and the medicine can restore Cynthia's body to normal.
The power that the "Mother Tree of Desire" can exert on Earth at this time is limited. As long as the connection is severed for a period of time, the "Mother Tree of Desire" will be unable to find her.
Klein offered a few more words of comfort in Emilius's tone, and then let Cynthia leave again.
In the spacious office, only Klein and Odis were present. Klein asked, "You seem to know a lot about the 'Mother Tree of Desire'?"
He wasn't sure if Admiral Emilius knew anything about the "Mother Tree of Desire," so instead of asking Odis to tell him about it directly, he spoke as if he wanted to discuss it with Odis, hoping to glean some information.
"I'm not entirely clear on the specifics either," Odis said. "All I know is that he is an evil god, and he seems to be connected to the 'Rose School'."
Klein couldn't help but frown: Another "Rose School"?
He had previously heard Miss Sharon mention that the "Rose School's" deity was the " Bound God ," but he had never heard of a "Mother Tree of Desire."
At that moment, a blond man named Lu Er'an knocked on the door and entered: "General, we have found the 'Celestial Cult' and captured their leader."
"This clue was provided by Miss Cynthia's parents. This sect has been quite active in Oravi in recent years. Its aim is to go naked, return to nature, and indulge one's nature. They believe that humans can achieve spiritual liberation in this state."
After a pause, Lu Er'an added, "Their leader is an extraordinary being, a Sequence 8 'madman' named Follett Ken."
Klein said seriously, "Bring him here."
Fordley was a man in his thirties. When Lu Er'an brought him to Klein, he was extremely listless, as if he had suffered severe mental torture.
Secretary Lü Er'an reported again: "General, during his arrest, he repeatedly used reason to gain strength, and his spirit is on the verge of collapse."
Klein thought to himself: This is perfect.
He stared coldly at Follett in front of him, and using the desk as cover, he switched to the soul of the "Interrogator" using "Crawling Hunger," his "Mental Pierce" poised to strike.
"The Interrogator" is Sequence 7 of the "Arbitrator" pathway, which is where Admiral Emilius is. However, Klein did not use this extraordinary ability directly because it is only at the Sequence 7 level. If he used it in front of "Mr. Garr" and Lurlian, it would be immediately exposed.
However, with the spiritual pressure brought by "mental piercing," Klein sat there, like the real Admiral Emilius: "Do you know Cynthia?"
As he spoke, he picked up a small, black pendant resembling a rhinoceros horn from his desk: "What's its purpose?"
The dejected Follett Ken trembled, feeling as if his spirit was being held by a sharp dagger, ready to be pierced at any moment.
He couldn't help but lower his head and stammered, "I know you."
"Cynthia…Miss Cynthia wanted to have a child with you, General…and her parents introduced her to me."
"That is a 'fertility necklace' made in a way bestowed by the gods. As long as you ingest those powders and wear it for a long time, it will... will make you, General, unable to resist it."
After listening, Klein remained silent for a while.
He believed that Cynthia, perhaps out of her own volition or perhaps pressured by others, genuinely wanted to have a child with Admiral Emilius.
However, she is unlikely to be an accomplice of the naturists, because if Emilius gets into trouble, she will also be implicated, and her parents and family members, as members of the local power, will suffer huge losses, or even completely lose their current social status.
However, Mr. Gar had just mentioned that the necklace would involve some pollution, so Klein began to have some doubts about the true purpose of the "Procreation Necklace".
He gradually intensified the pressure from the "mental piercing": "What use is this necklace now?"
Follett, whose mental state was already on the verge of collapse, could no longer bear it and collapsed to the ground with a thud, shouting almost insanely, "It...it can also corrupt you!"
"As long as Cynthia ingests those powders and devoutly recites the name of the 'Mother Tree of Desire,' she can... she can corrupt any man who has relations with her!"
"Then...then you can become a believer in the 'Mother Tree of Desire'! Become one of His favored ones!"
Klein thought to himself: Just as I expected!
Then he thought to himself: Fortunately, "Mr. Gar" discovered it in time, otherwise Cynthia might have undergone a significant mutation today or tomorrow, and at that time, no one would have been able to save her.
Odis was now certain that his response was correct. Although his previous actions were theoretically the best course of action, he was still somewhat uncertain since it involved "Outer Gods".
However, after hearing Follett say that after taking the powder, one should also pray devoutly to the "Mother Tree of Desire," then there is no problem with this treatment.
Lu Er'an, who was standing to the side, lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "General, this is our mistake."
"We only monitored Miss Cynthia and the servants here, but we didn't extend that to their families."
"I am willing to accept any punishment for this, even if you send me to a military court."
Klein suddenly realized that now that things had come to this point, he had to make a decision on how to punish Emilius.
After a moment's thought, he said with a serious expression, "My father, the late Earl Levitt, once taught me a saying."
He said, "Forgive your subordinate for the first mistake he made."
"Lü Er'an, you and those guards should thank him for his kindness."
Odis, who was watching the show from the sidelines, thought to himself: Although this sounds like the tone of a superior, there are some risks in saying it like this. What if this is not the first time Lü Er'an has made a mistake? That would be ridiculous.
Lu Er'an's eyes flickered, and he said quite sincerely, "I admire your magnanimity."
"You will be the only thing I am loyal to, besides principles, gods, and kings."
Odis lowered his head as much as possible, and slightly curled the corners of his mouth: What a touching master-servant relationship! But you, "glasses man," seem to be loyal to more things than you are! If it were me, I would definitely turn on you.
Klein then said in a calm tone, "There's a second part to that sentence: 'Severely punish them for making the same mistake a second time.'"
Lu Er'an nodded, not surprised by this.
Klein turned his gaze back to Follett Ken, who was slumped on the ground, and asked without changing his expression, "Who ordered you to do this?"
Follett looked around nervously, then stammered, "It's...it's the 'Mother Tree of Desire.' He...He instructed us to do this in a dream. At first, I only intended to lend the 'Necklace of Procreation' to Cynthia...Miss Cynthia to wear. I didn't intend for her to ingest the powder."
Klein almost frowned: the instructions of the 'Mother Tree of Desire'? This was tantamount to a divine oracle in some way.
He then realized that although General Emilius was a big figure in the Rune military and one of the highest rulers in the western part of the Sunia Sea, and his position was quite important, it shouldn't have attracted the direct attention of an evil god.
Odis thought to himself: Finally, they've gotten to the point.
Klein continued seriously, "When did you have that dream?"
Follett forced a fearful smile and said, "It was...it was last Friday night. I remember...I remember it very clearly. I had just liberated my nature for a lady."
This answer made Klein realize once again that this was no coincidence!
Guided by his spirituality, he suddenly had an association.
Then he suddenly asked, "What did you do last Sunday evening?"
Follett Ken paused for a moment before saying, "We...we followed the instructions of the 'Mother Tree of Desire,' using a magical ritual and a piece of hair from a homeless man provided by a believer to amplify the other person's appetite."
Klein was horrified: they really were the ones who killed Admiral Emilius's former homeless double! All to prevent the Admiral from leaving, thus leading him into a trap, having a relationship with Cynthia, and being corrupted?
He instantly connected all the clues: my appearance just happened to ruin the plan... No!
Klein suddenly realized that last Friday was his first day on Oravi Island!
He was startled, but suddenly became unusually clear-headed: Could this be targeting me?
Having had a similar experience, Klein immediately thought: That's possible. When I first arrived on Oravi Island, the 'Mother Tree of Desire' used a dream to give Follett Ken a revelation, thus initiating the entire plan...
Then he thought: if it were aimed at Admiral Emilius, the plan had to ensure that he couldn't find another accomplice if he lost his double. Clearly, they had no further plans for this.
Klein thought for a moment, then turned to Odis and Luiran and said, "You two go out for a bit."
He wanted to feed Follett to "the wriggling hunger".
Odis and Luiran went into the corridor, and a minute or two later, they heard Follett's screams coming from the office.
Lu Er'an whispered, "Congratulations."
Odis was taken aback by this abrupt question: "Congratulations on what?"
Instead of answering the question, Lu Er'an said, "If every pirate were as powerful as you, this sea would be terrifying. Fortunately, we are not enemies."
His congratulations were because, given what had happened today, Admiral Emilius would surely give Odis an important position, and might even develop him into one of his core subordinates.
His statement that "we are not enemies" meant that the two of them were handling different matters for the General and there was no significant competition between them.
Although Odis was unaware of Emilius's habits, he could tell that the blond secretary's main point was "we are not enemies."
So he smiled and said, "Of course not an enemy."
Odis was well aware of the power of the "Secretary Party." Although he had no intention of entering politics or truly joining the navy, he still had to show some respect, as he might need the secretary in the future.
At this moment, Admiral Emilius called Odis inside.
When I entered the office again, the leader of the "Natural Cult" had disappeared.
After closing the office door, Klein offered no explanation for the madman's whereabouts: "Do you think Cynthia's matter has anything to do with the 'Rose School's' actions in Port Olavi?"
Odis pretended to consider it for a moment before saying, "I don't think there's any connection."
"Those members of the 'Rose School' had a clear objective: to ambush the 'Life School'."
He made this judgment because he vaguely remembered that there wasn't much communication or contact between the various organizations that believed in the "Mother Tree of Desire".
Even though the "Celestial Church" was a branch of the "Rose School," they did not share a common plan.
Klein nodded slowly, agreeing with his assessment.
Then he said, "Let Lu Er'an in."
Klein plans to mobilize the navy's forces to completely eradicate the "Celestial Cult".
Even if Admiral Emilius's brother had just been dismissed, and even if the new governor took office that same afternoon, it showed that the higher-ups in Rune were intentionally hiding this news from him.
However, as a naval admiral, Emilius remains one of the most powerful people in this sea. He can eliminate a small cult without reporting to or consulting with anyone.
Odis went out, called Luiran in, and then went to the waiting room to have tea with Tim.
More than an hour later, the servant brought dinner, which was around 10 p.m.
Odis thought to himself: When I was a beast of burden, I never ate this late.
After dinner, Tim was summoned by "Admiral Emilius" again. After the office door closed, Klein said, "Let's talk about this afternoon's operation."
He estimated that Emilius should be back by tomorrow during the day, so he hoped to use his authority to learn more about Mr. Gar.
When Klein heard that Mr. Gar had single-handedly taken down a Sequence 5, he was certain that the guy had indeed advanced, and that he possessed at least two Sequence 5 level magical items, which explained his ability to kill another Sequence 5 in such a short time after his advancement.
Because Tim was also fighting a werewolf at the time, he couldn't see Odis's specific abilities clearly, but he gave the impression that Odis was a rather powerful extraordinary being.
After talking with Tim, it was already late at night, so Klein told him and Odis to go back and rest first.
The office fell silent again. Klein sat quietly behind his desk, reflecting on the day's events.
Just as he was about to find a room to rest, his intuition suddenly sensed that someone had entered the office.
Only then did he look towards the window, where Admiral Emilius, dressed in a tailcoat, appeared.
Phew, I'm finally back!
However, Klein still cautiously asked, "What items did you give me beforehand?"
Emilius replied solemnly, "The 'Ninth Law' spell."
Before Gehrman Sparrow could speak again, he took two steps forward and calmly asked, "Has anything happened these past few days? Why is Port Olavi under martial law?"
Klein controlled the muscles in his face and said, "Your brother has been relieved of his post as governor, and a new governor has taken office."
Emilius frowned, but it seemed to be within his tolerance: "Anything else?"
Klein tried hard not to look away: "Your Miss Cynthia worshipped an evil god and was corrupted to some extent. Fortunately, Odis discovered it in time, and the problem has been basically resolved."
"Odis discovered a piece of intelligence about the 'Rose School' and, following this intelligence, investigated a major operation by the 'Rose School'."
"I was forced to command an operation against the 'Rose School,' and achieved considerable success..."
Emilius's expression gradually turned to astonishment, as if he was wondering if he had returned to the wrong place.
I've only been away for three days!
For a moment, the air in the room seemed to freeze. After a few seconds of silence, Emilius quickly regained his composure and said, "Tell me the details."
Klein then described the events of the past few days without much concealment.
...
On Monday morning, Odis, who had been put up in a hotel by Tim the night before, was notified early on that he should meet with Admiral Emilius immediately.
Upon arriving at the living room of Admiral Emilius's residence, he found that Tim had already arrived, so he casually greeted him, "You're here so early?"
Tim smiled and said, "I just arrived too."
At this moment, he was also a little puzzled, because Admiral Emilius had summoned him early in the morning to inquire about the process of yesterday's operation against the "Rose School" and Odis's specific performance.
These questions were already asked yesterday!
At this moment, Emilius and his entourage, including Luiran, hurried into the living room. Emilius patted Odis on the shoulder and said in his usual serious tone, "Very good."
Odis understood that the other party was praising the information he had provided yesterday and his handling of Cynthia's situation.
Moreover, Odis knew that it was now the real Admiral Emilius, and he smiled and said, "As you should."
Then the group walked quickly outside, and Odis was surprisingly placed in Admiral Emilius's carriage.
As soon as the carriage left the courtyard, Emilius asked, "I heard that you put away an extraordinary property of a 'vengeful spirit' yesterday?"
Odis readily admitted, "Yes, because it was a spoil of war that I obtained on my own. If I handed it over, it might not belong to me anymore."
Emilius hummed in agreement and said, "Keep it for yourself; consider it a spoil of war from this operation."
"Yes," Odis replied immediately.
Today, Admiral Emilius will preside over the division of the spoils and the apportionment of those who contributed to the operation.
Because the greatest credit for this operation belongs to Odis. He was the one who discovered the "Rose School" trap, knew the members of the "Life School," and suggested joining forces with the "Life School" to lure out all the members of the "Rose School."
Since Odis was a member of the Navy, most of the credit for this operation went to the Navy, and the Navy rightfully took most of the spoils.
Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!
However, since Odis had already taken the spoils, Emilius rewarded Odis within the navy.
Odis is still a pirate, and this award cannot be made public; only some high-ranking naval officers know about it.
In addition, Emilius prepared other spoils for him, allowing Odis to choose one of them.
The first option is promotion to the rank of senior colonel; the second is a £3,000 bonus, and the option to make one reasonable request.
Odis naturally chose the latter, and his request was to obtain some spiritual materials at the demigod level.
Emilius granted special permission for this, and shortly after the meeting to divide the spoils, Odis received the prize money and spiritual materials.
After dividing the spoils, Odis and Tim agreed to meet at the Grand Hotel Olavi after lunch and return to Cruz Island together.
Odis arrived early at the rather nicely decorated hotel, not to wait for Tim, but because he had arranged to meet Kleist of the "School of Life" here the day before.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Odis took out his pocket watch and looked at it. The people of the "School of Life" were actually late.
Just then, a slightly hoarse voice came from the next table: "Is your friend late?"
Odis was taken aback and looked at the person next to him, where an old man with silver hair was sitting in a black trench coat.
Although the old man was advanced in years, he was remarkably spry, which immediately put Odis on alert: "Are you asking me?"
He was alert primarily because he hadn't even noticed when the old man had sat down at the next table.
He then paused to reflect, realizing that there had been no one at the next table before the old man spoke.
The second reason that made him wary was that this was not the first time he had seen this old man.
This all goes back to the day before he set sail, when he had dinner with Bazel at the hotel.
At that time, Odis encountered two "strange men": one was Tim, who would later become Odis's subordinate, and the other was this old man.
"Of course it's you." The old man smiled warmly. "I've been observing you for a long time."
Then, without any invitation, he sat down opposite Odis.
Odis offered no resistance until the old man sat down, at which point he realized that his lack of resistance was the most problematic thing.
Odis then guessed that the other party was likely a demigod.
However, he wasn't nervous, because this demigod clearly had something to discuss with him, and he wouldn't be harmed until the matter was settled.
"You perfectly fit our requirements," the old man said with a smile. "Oh, by the way, let me introduce myself. You can call me Mr. Kent."
Odis smiled and said, "Since you've been observing me for so long, I probably don't need to introduce myself, do I?"
"Yes, no need." The old man, Kent, took out a cigar and cut it open as he said, "Very good, very good. So calm at such a young age."
He took out a lighter and, while toasting a cigar, asked, "What are your thoughts on the current world situation?"
Upon hearing this question, Odis roughly guessed the old man's identity and said, "Relations between countries are tense, the gap between the rich and the poor is widening, and the privileged class still rules the world."
Kent nodded in agreement, took a puff of his cigar, and asked, "What do you think of the conservatives in Rune?"
"They currently seem to have the same influence as the reformers, but they will eventually fade from the stage of history," Odis stated, explaining his viewpoint.
"In fact, the reformists do not mean that their direction is more advanced. In my opinion, they are just a privileged class repackaging themselves in a different way to continue to rule the country."
"But conservatives fail to realize that the world is undergoing tremendous changes, and if they do not adapt accordingly, they will be left behind by the times."
Kent laughed heartily, "Haha, I knew it, I didn't misjudge you."
Odis said, "Then may I ask a question now?"
Kent made a "please ask" gesture.
"You suddenly contacted me, surely not to discuss the international situation?"
"Of course not," Kent smiled. "We hope to steer the world in the right direction!"
His smile gradually faded and became more devout: "People in this world are either too greedy or too ignorant, and they simply don't understand what the trends of the times mean."
"The tide of the times is rolling forward, and no one can stop it!"
Odis was even more certain of the other person's identity: "I basically agree with your point of view."
"But there are always some people who want to hinder the progress of the times with their insignificant power." The old man Kent took another puff of his cigar. "I hope to recruit a warrior to eliminate these people who overestimate their strength."
Odis paused for a moment before saying, "Excuse me for being blunt, but your rank seems to be higher than mine. Why would you recruit me to do something like this?"
"This is related to our mission," Kent said, taking a deep breath. "We are observers of this world and will try our best not to interfere in the course of history."
"Only when the trend of the times becomes clearly problematic will we try our best to reverse this trend by issuing some commissions."
Odis thought to himself: I understand now, the audience is just an audience! Not actors.
He asked, "So what kind of request do you want to make to me?"
Odis already had some guesses.
"Assassinate Duke Negan!"
really!
Then Odis thought to himself: This duke is really unlucky. He was doing well as a duke in Backlund, but somehow he became the assassination target of the "Twilight Hermits".
Indeed, Odis was now quite certain that the old man in front of him was a member of the "Twilight Hermits' Society".
Prior to this, the Twilight Hermits had carried out two assassination attempts against Duke Negan. One was by "Hurricane Admiral" Ziringus, who went to Backlund to carry out the assassination. The mission failed, and "Hurricane Admiral" was killed by Mr. Azik.
The second assassination attempt was secretly planned by Patrick Jason Beria, the "Apostle of Desire," but Odis's appearance eliminated the assassin beforehand, and the second assassination attempt also failed.
Odis never expected that the Twilight Hermits would approach him and continue this commission.
Kent scrutinized Odis, smiled, and asked, "You know about our organization?"
Odis realized that the old man in front of him was a demigod "spectator," and that although he had hidden his thoughts well, they still could not escape the other's eyes.
"Yes," he readily admitted.
Kent then asked, "Where did you hear that from?"
Odis, quick-witted, smiled and said, "Since you say you've been observing me for a while, you should have seen the flag hanging on the mast of the 'Argo'."
Kent immediately understood: "It was through the 'Mysterious Queen,' or more precisely, through Emperor Roselle."
Odis nodded. He wasn't lying; he did indeed learn of the existence of the "Twilight Hermits" from Roselle, but the way he learned it was certainly different from what Kent had imagined.
Odis brought up another topic: "What reward will I receive?"
"Since you are a member of 'Elemental Dawn' and a good friend of 'Mysterious Queen', and know many secrets about Roselle, you must have heard of 'The Blasphemy Card', right?" Kent asked with a smile, hinting at the question.
Oddi immediately understood: "The Hermit" card!
Then he became somewhat excited; it was a complete "path to God."
But Odis quickly calmed down: "That's not enough."
"Not enough?" Kent smiled. "Do you really know what the 'Blasphemy Card' means?"
"Of course I know," Odis had truly calmed down: "It is precisely because I know what it means that I feel this reward is insufficient."
"Because I can get potion recipes up to Sequence 2 from Bernadette, the 'Desecration Card' will be meaningless to me once I actually reach that position."
Kent still had a smile on his face, but this was the first time he had encountered such a situation. There were people who were not crazy about the "blasphemy card," and he couldn't refute the reasons they gave.
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Add another ingredient to the main ingredient of the 'Mystic' potion."
Odis then became interested: "I can't agree to your request right away because I also have a clue about a key material. I don't know if the key material you mentioned overlaps with that clue."
This surprised Kent again, because according to his observation, Odis should have just been promoted to Sequence 5, but he did not expect that he already had a clue about a master material.
"How about this," Odis said, "we'll meet here again at eight o'clock tonight, and then you can tell me about the main material for which you have a lead."
"If it's a duplicate, please find someone else to handle the commission."
"If it's not a repetition, then the reward is a clue to the main material and the 'Hermit' card, but you must tell me the clue first before I will accept the commission."
"Okay," Kent agreed readily. "Then, see you tonight."
He stubbed out his cigar and slowly got up to leave.
Odis longed to turn back and watch the other person leave, but his neck seemed to be under some kind of command, and he couldn't turn back at all.
When he could turn his neck freely, he quickly turned around to look for the old man, Kent, but he had vanished without a trace, as if he had never been there.
As Odis marveled at the demigod's abilities, he saw Kleist walk in with unhurried steps.
Odis then smiled and said, "This method is truly remarkable."
Kleist hurried over and smiled, "I'm sorry, the carriage broke down halfway there."
"However, my spirituality realized that this lateness was just right."
Odis touched her hair: "Perfectly just right."
"That's good." Kleist sat opposite him. "Thank you very much for your help with yesterday's operation."
"After the operation, I contacted the teacher, who told me to thank you properly and said he hoped to pay you some compensation as a token of his gratitude."
Odis thought to himself: One operation, two rewards, that's not bad.
He didn't stand on ceremony with the "School of Life" and thought for a moment before saying, "I hope to obtain some spiritual materials at the demigod level."
After advancing to Sequence 5, Odis's ability to create scrolls improved significantly. Scrolls made using spiritual materials at the demigod level could even be used to deal with demigods.
Of course, those scrolls are unlikely to cause much damage to demigods, but at least they offer a chance to escape when encountering one.
Just like before, even under the influence of the "audience's" power, Odis had no intention of attacking the old man Kent.
But if the old man Kent wants to harm Odis, Odis's spirit will, to some extent, break free from the psychological suggestion that she does not want to harm the person in front of her.
In that case, Odis's bag would contain five or six scrolls that could be used against Kent.
Especially after talking with Kent, Odis wanted more scrolls to deal with demigods, so he made the same request to Admiral Emilius for the reward of the "School of Life".
Kleist paused for a moment before saying, "It should be fine, but it will take some time before I can give it to you. Um... I will deliver the spiritual materials to you by writing a letter to Rupert."
Although demigod-level spiritual materials are rare, they can be traded for in gold.
Odis hummed in agreement and then asked, "Do you have any new information about the 'Rose School'?"
"They seem to be plotting something," Kleist said. "We haven't gathered much information about their whereabouts, but from the limited clues we have, we can tell that they've moved a lot of people to the Rothschild Islands."
He was not stingy with his intelligence on the "Rose School": "Like this operation on Oravi Island, in the past, they rarely managed to gather four Sequence 5s to set up a trap at once, but now they obviously have more manpower in the Roside Islands."
Odis thought about it carefully and found that his memory only contained the information about the great scientist, Turani von Helmoshuin, who was the incarnation of the "Orange Light" and was associated with the "Rose School" for a period of time.
He didn't know whether the "Rose School" was competing with another organization for Tulane, or if they were just trying to transfer him away.
However, Odis immediately realized that it was clear from the fact that the "Blood General" had been using the most advanced wireless telegraph machine for a long time that Turani had been in their hands for some time. So what they needed to do now was to "transfer" this great scientist.
The fact that so many people were used to transport Turani shows how much the "Rose School" valued him.
Then Odis thought: Perhaps these madmen don't really respect science, but rather the "Mother Tree of Desire" sensed that this great scientist was the "Orange Light," which is why it sent down a divine oracle, instructing the "Rose School" to concentrate its efforts on seizing it.
With this in mind, Odis realized that now was the best time to strike at the "Rose School".
Because they have more important tasks at this time, even if they suffer some losses, they will not immediately launch a retaliatory action.
These thoughts flashed through her mind in an instant, and then Odis and Kleist began chatting, enjoying lunch together.
Around 1 p.m., Tim arrived and met up with Odis, and the two of them went to Cruz Island together.
Odis first arranged for the other party to stay here, and then traveled to the Emerald Palace on Lacha Island, but unfortunately the "Mysterious Queen" was not here.
I learned from writing her a letter that the "mysterious queen" had returned to Backlund.
Bernadette then sent a carriage to take Oedipus to Backlund.
