Chapter 133: Shrewd Ragner
Regner thought about it for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, it just so happens that I have something I want to ask him as well." ”
"So, where shall we leave now?" Goethe suggested.
"Yes. Regner agreed, there was nothing to do at night anyway, and it would be good to go over and see Alex.
He grabbed some of his belongings and walked out with him.
Regner went downstairs and ordered a tomato bisque with bread jam for Iniris and delivered them himself.
"Ini. Regner brought dinner to Innellis' table, "This is your dinner, I'm going out tonight, and I'll probably be back a little later." ”
"Okay, got it. Inilis didn't look up, just concentrated on writing and calculating. Although the little girl did not have the talent to become a mage, she had learned to meditate so far.
So in the past few days, Iniris's life is to study formulas and meditation in addition to eating, from the perspective of restoring mental power, the efficiency of meditation is higher than sleeping, and Iniris usually uses meditation instead of sleeping in order to save time these days.
Because of this, Regner has only been quietly staying by Iniris's side recently, and things like sharing a bed and sleeping have not happened again.
"Come on!" Regner touched Ineris's little head, then gently closed the door to the room.
"Your Excellency, you really care about that little girl. Goethe smiled.
"If there is someone who can trust you as unreservedly as she trusts me, then you will be like me. Regner smiled.
......
The headquarters of the MI was not located in the palace, and Goethe drove his carriage through the streets of Melindale for an unknown number of turns, and finally came to a nondescript building.
"Looks like it's about the same as the guild. Regner thought to himself that the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild on the Lance Continent had set up its headquarters under a very inconspicuous building.
If you look at it from a distance, the building might just be a larger house. But Regner knew that under this building, there must be a rather large underground palace. That's where MI really is.
"The layout here is almost entirely modeled after the Lunaris Thieves Guild, so I'll be familiar with it. Goethe said as he led the way.
"That's right. Regner admits it.
Goethe then led Regner to the underworld, which was as heavily guarded as Regner had expected. Goethe showed the token he had brought along the way, so that he could go on unimpeded.
When Regner met Alex, the skinny middle-aged man was working on a pile of papers with his head down.
"Uncle Alex......" Regner couldn't help but laugh a little as he looked at this guy's embarrassed appearance.
"Aha!" Alex jumped to his feet when he heard the voice, "You're finally here! Fuck, if you don't come again, you're going crazy." ”
"Okay, okay, uncle, calm down. Regner was startled when he looked at Alex's crazy appearance.
The two adults chatted slowly, and Goethe took his leave. Goethe left with great interest.
"You don't have to say it now, do you?" Alex hurriedly grabbed Regner's collar and said after Goethe left: "You said that I would help you replace you for half a year, but now that half a year has passed, you don't have to say anything, right?"
"But ......"
"Nothing!" Alex was not happy when he heard the word, "This was originally your job, I have been doing it for you for half a year, and now I can't do anything you say." I'll leave it to you for the rest of the rest!"
"Uncle, don't get excited, I came here this time to discuss with you about my entry into the MIA. Regner said quickly.
"Well, I'll take care of all of this. Alex gestured to the mountain of papers on the table, "My mission is done, goodbye, I'll leave here tomorrow." ”
"Hey!" Regner almost jumped, "How can it be so fast?!"
"And what do you want?" Alex rolled his eyes.
"Give me a buffer~~. Regner said in a coquettish tone, not to mention Alex, even if he heard it, his stomach couldn't help but churn, and he felt a little like vomiting.
", do you kid want to come over and disgust uncle?" Alex was about to throw up.
"But, uncle, look!" Regner spread his hands helplessly: "No matter how I say it, I can only be regarded as just joining the MIA, and I am not familiar with everything, if there is no senior commander who is familiar with this, I am afraid it will be very difficult, right?"
"......" Alex looked at Regner helplessly, is this kid sure that he won't let go easily?
"Hey, hey, hey!" Regner leaned over to Alex with a sneer, "I don't think Mr. Willyce would allow a guy like me who doesn't know anything to be in charge of everything in the MIA, right?"
"......" Alex's eyelids jumped, this kid looks like an idiot, but in fact, it's just that he is too lazy to use his brain, once it is related to himself, this kid sees things more thoroughly than anyone else!
That's right! Wellles did give him the extra instruction to assist Regner in the MI to secure his position. Of course, Verles was not at ease with handing over such a large organization to Regner, and Alex was sent to the Hawke Empire. On the one hand, it is to solve the problem of Regner's picking, and on the other hand, it is to assist Regner in handling affairs in the Military Intelligence Service.
Although Alex has always been meticulous in carrying out Verles's orders, he is actually a little reluctant to follow Regner to play this game of reading with the prince. So he has always shown a negative and helpless side to Regner, hoping to speed up the pace of Regner's responsibility, so that he can complete the task quickly.
But now it seems that Regner clearly has insight into the essence of this matter. He begged Alex with a dead face, and made up his mind to hug the uncle's thigh.
So, even if Alex was reluctant now, he had to nod his head under Willes's orders and Regner's stubborn fighting.
"Okay...... Alex waved his hand helplessly: "But I can tell you, in the future, you will become the first person in charge of the military intelligence department." And I will also teach you things step by step, and after half a year at most, you will become a veritable person in charge of the MI, and at that time, even if you say the great heavens, I will not stay in the Hawke Empire anymore. ”
Regner thought for a moment, then nodded, "That's good." ”
For Regner, half a year was enough time for him to study. He didn't really want to throw everything at Alex, and to be honest, Regner didn't have the confidence to manage such a large organization.
Although he has a Goethe who has spent a lot of time in the Moon Shadow Thieves' Guild, he is only a casual person in the end, and if his status is not high enough, then his ideas will naturally have certain limitations. Regner, on the other hand, did not want to be affected by this limitation. Therefore, Alex, who has strong strength and far-reaching vision, will be the best person to assist him.
Don't look at Regner's very negative behavior since returning to Melindel, but in fact, he also knows that these things can't be escaped after all, so Regner has already done a lot of thinking about it long before Goethe came to him.
"When will you officially come over?" Alex asked helplessly.
"In a few days, you should know about Anne's absorption of the Sea Emperor Giant Whale Crystal Nucleus, right? I'm going to come with her when she's done with all this. Regner said with a deep groan.
"Oh?" Alex glanced at Regner in surprise, "Will Anne be back too?"
"Yes, she had a fight with Master Mallorite two days ago over this. Regner scratched his head in annoyance, although Marolette had a good attitude towards him, but it was not easy to talk about the relationship between the father and daughter, and this matter had now become a problem for Regner.
But Alex's focus was clearly not on the conflict between the Tempest Swordmaster and Annelot, he looked at Regner like a monster, and after a while he muttered, "How did you do that?"
"Do what?" Regner was confused, and then he suddenly thought of something, and said to Alex seriously, "By the way, there is one thing I want to ask you." ”
"What?" Alex didn't dwell too much on how Regner got Annelot.
"It's Balor. Regner whispered, "What happened to him after he duel with me?"
Alex fell silent, he didn't expect Regner to ask such a question.
"I heard Anne tell me that your report concluded that I killed Barol. Regner's tone was a little indifferent, he stared at Alex and asked gloomily, "Besides, you also reported that I cut off Barol's head and sent him to the guild headquarters?
Alex looked at Regner and asked, "So, what do you think is the truth?"
"I don't know what the truth is, that's why I came to ask you. "All I know is that I defeated him in a duel, but I didn't kill him, I'm pretty sure of that," Regna said. As for cutting off his head or something, it's even more unlikely that I did it. ”
"Yes, I know you didn't do it. Alex sighed.
"So what happened?" Regner's tone was tinged with anger, and he had to fight to defeat Barol, and ramble on so much to make Barol Vera's brother again. But hell, Barol died? How the hell did he die?!
"How he died, I don't know, but I know who cut off his head. Alex said lightly.
"Who?"
"Me. ”
