On the stone paths of the Icterean Academy, there were figures of early-rising students and staff rushing about, as well as groups of three or five chatting.
All the clamor and tracks seemed to be separated by an invisible barrier from the several figures standing afar.
Loren stood there in silence for a while.
He was starting to want to run away, he really didn't know how to go and see Juliana.
Even if the straightforward and proud Julianna would follow through on the absurd conditions she'd agreed to, Lorenzo couldn't imagine what that scenario would look like.
He didn't want to spend the whole day with the teeth-gnashing Juliana!
And if they actually go on a date, the rumors in Ikeras City are sure to run wild!
Loren covered her eyes.
"Lance, I only ask you this: let the other academic visiting teams' students go back safely, alright Once Adams recovers, I will personally send him back and apologize with gifts. But for the other twenty students, not one can be missing."
His expression was like a smile, but with a hint of sadness.
"……"
Lance fell silent.
And Huberlian couldn't help but glance at Phoenix, who stood quietly beside him.
Loren's expression froze again.
"Hey, classmate, no matter what Ranch threatens you with, don't be afraid. Just tell me the truth, okay"
Lorentz looked at Phoenix with an unusual amount of nervousness.
He just knew that something was off about Lanchi and the students from Alloran Royal Academy hanging out together!
At least this student doesn't look like they have any broken bones, so they probably don't need to go to the hospital.
Phoenix glanced at Lance, then at Loren, but said nothing.
It's like there's something extremely important she needs to tell Lauren.
Loren lightly traced her fingertips, using magic to isolate the sounds around them from the outside world.
"
Okay, anything you want to tell me, you can say it.
"
Lauren said softly.
Although he didn't think anything major would happen.
But now, when it comes to things concerning Ranch, he still listens attentively.
"I am a member of the Resurrected Faith."
Phoenix replied.
"......"
Lauren fell silent for a moment.
"No, Phoenix, that's not funny."
Lauren smiled awkwardly.
He had never seen a Resurrectionist so calmly and proactively come to him to turn themselves in, as if they were completely reformed.
This is simply a bizarre event.
"I am Ivannos, the elite covert operative under the direct command of the Destructive Bishop. I only awaken myself in special circumstances to carry out missions. This time, my mission in the Kingdom of Hertton is to assassinate Lady Hubrianna and create a major incident. Other members of the Resurrectionist Cult in the Kingdom of Alora will follow up on this. Once you begin your investigation, you will fall into our trap, igniting conflicts and leading to a chain reaction that will irrevocably shatter the trust between the Kingdom of Hertton and the Kingdom of Alora beyond your expectations."
Phoenix looked at Loren with a cold gaze. Only now did he no longer appear to be a student, but rather had regained the aura of a resurrected apostle.
"...!"
Lorentz's smile gradually faded.
Until seriousness was mixed with a touch of brain freeze.
"This is a plan I have drafted based on the information I have, along with my confession, and a list of people in key positions within the Aloran Kingdom who may be members of the Resurrectionists. I will cooperate fully and honestly with your investigation. I hope you can look after my sister for me and protect her from revenge by the Resurrectionists. She is innocent."
Phoenix calmly stated, taking out a piece of intelligence and a confession he had written yesterday from his coat pocket for Lauren to understand as quickly as possible.
..."
Loren took the pages with trembling hands, lowering her head to read the shocking contents.
Then gaze once more upon Phoenix.
If Phoenix is telling the truth, then this is undoubtedly a serious security breach.
Phoenix's identity in the Revivalist Church wasn't that of a small fry, but rather that of a top-tier, impeccably concealed elite.
"Lord Loren, there's some work I need you to handle afterward, including protecting Phyllis and so on. As for this information, it's best not to have it go through the kingdom's hands. Speak with a trusted figure in the Alolan Kingdom, someone you know well, and ask for their help in investigating. You know who I'm talking about."
Lanchi seriously said to Lauren.
He even considered matters that would require Lauren and Julianna to work together.
Love means constantly having events happen, giving the male and female leads more opportunities to interact. Everything is arranged by fate, and neither side is intentionally trying too hard.
Lorentz now had to find Juliana, and it was likely that he and Juliana would need to be in contact for the foreseeable future. The two were bound to create some sparks!
"Lance... I must first affirm your work capacity, and afterward, the credit and rewards that belong to you will not be lacking..."
Lorentz stared at Lance with a complex expression.
Lauren couldn't understand the composition of Lance anymore.
He was both fixing himself and helping himself...
Loren had to admit.
Lanche is the most business-minded student he has ever met.
He's way too ambitious, it's kind of scary how driven he is.
"But I'm worried that the academic visiting team wasn't able to go back to several, Juliana is coming to Henton Kingdom to find me directly."
Lorentz spoke with a sorrowful expression.
Now, counting Phyllis and Phoenix from the hospital, there were a total of twenty-one students. A week later, eighteen are able to return to normal.
If there were a few less, Juliana would come to find him.
By then, Loren wouldn't dare imagine what kind of rumors about Iketeru would spread.
"Is that true"
Lanche's eyes lit up.
Nearby Huberlian's eyes widened.
Seeing Lance like this, she wanted to personally handle Dr. Lauren's entire wedding!
But the problem is, if Lady Juliana Knight arrived in Herton City...
...and the rumors spreading in the city grew more and more distorted...
If the fiancée of Lord Loren found out, she would surely not allow Lord Loren and Lady Juliana's romance to proceed smoothly!
And the fiancée will be personally involved.
Then without a doubt, an epic battleground of chaos is about to unfold!
For the sake of Ekatere's peace, Hypolyta knew she absolutely could not allow any more student casualties from the kingdom of Alora!
Lorenn didn't dare to continue talking with Lance. This guy was insane; his thought process was beyond comprehension for normal people.
The more you say, the more likely it is to trigger his motives and do some creepy things.
Lorentz immediately took Phoenix and vanished like the wind.
The sound-proofing barrier dissipated with the airflow, and the bustle of the schoolyard, the laughter and chatter of other students, and the rustling of leaves in the breeze once again reached Lanci and Huberlian's ears.
"Ranch, what are you planning to do today..."
"Huberlyan asked, a bit guardedly."
After they sent the person off, they strolled leisurely back.
Ranch looked at Huberlian's expression, remained silent for a moment.
Beside the path flows an artificial river created by the academy. The water is crystal clear, and occasionally a few leaves drift on its surface, reflecting the blue sky and green trees, creating a tranquil scene like a painting.
Today I'm preparing to take a day off to buy some materials from the card-making association, and then practice making cards, making variation cards for the great love poet.
Ranch thought for a moment and replied.
I promised the poet of great love, if I didn't do it for her right away, she might become disobedient next time she came out.
Moreover, taking advantage of the fact that the poet was in high spirits, she could also devote herself wholeheartedly to making cards with him.
"Sigh..."
Hubley seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Ranch still had the rest and adjustment holiday given by the school after completing the Shadow World [Holy Cult's Banquet].
By the way, Huberlian, could you lend me your Transformation: Human for two days of research
Currently, the things Lan Chi can do for Da Ai Shi are skins. If you want to change her race, the technique is based on extending the Change Art principle. Based on [Change Art: Demon], she can be changed into other types of demons. And if based on [Change Art: Human], then she can be changed into a human.
Lanche didn't know what other effects changing the poet's race would have, and whether the final skin effect would still be complemented by Lanche's own hand-drawn design.
No problem.
Huperlyan casually pulled out [Transformation: Human] and handed it to Lanche, while she herself maintained her human form by using the oldest camouflage spell.
Although helping Lance play dress-up with Miss Tatta would feel highly inappropriate, Huberlyan was also a bit curious what the great love poet would look like, because Tatta's foundation was simply too beautiful. If possible, Huberlyan also wanted to bring out many of the Duke's Mansion's clothes to dress up Tatta.
