"Did you find out a long time ago?" With a chuckle - Vita's figure appeared out of thin air. She ignored Emma's surprised and sad gaze, and also ignored Macchias's thoughtful look, "If it weren't for you...... I'm going to do it myself. ”

"With this leisure, you might as well just do it. I stayed on the sidelines and watched...... Do you know who this behavior reminds me of? ”

"Allah...... I'm not a white-faced person. Vita lightly covered her cheek with a fan, "I'm just worried...... Starters, who are already very rare, shouldn't have any accidents. ”

"If you had that mind, you would have taken him under your command a long time ago. I think Kane seems to have a lot of trust in you. Heliga finally said this question that he had been thinking about for a long time - it was so strange, if the witch clan just wanted to see a fight between the two riders, wouldn't it be better for them to simply control the two sides and then discuss it internally? Why did she have to stick to this form? "For example, you often use this method to wander the world, and he never says anything about you, right?"

"Alas...... I'm not sure, but I always think he'll not be trusted someday. Well, if you know where he came from, you might be able to understand ......" Vita paused slightly, then turned her head again as she spoke, "but it's surprising...... Serenu, why did you stop him then? Obviously—"

"What are you talking about?" Serenu glared at Vita fiercely, but the tone of her voice was obviously weak, and Emma on the side also looked at Rien with a somewhat apologetic look, causing the latter to be a little overwhelmed, "I'm not a ...... with such a bad heart as you"

"Well...... Fortunately, the results are not bad. Vita shook her fan, "Well, I'll ...... first."

"Don't rush to leave just yet." Heiliga said coldly, "Since I found out that you are there, it means that I won't let you go until I get the information you want." Can you explain my question just now - what is involved in the struggle between the riders? Why are you so stuck to this form? ”

“…… The witch clan does inherit such a tradition...... But why? Sister, you're not with your mother-in-law—" Emma also said eagerly.

Emma ...... The conflict between me and my mother-in-law is impossible to settle for the time being. You don't have to know these things. For the first time, Vita looked at Emma seriously, her eyes were gentle, and the latter thought in a trance that she was back in the witch's village, and Vita, who was known as a genius, cared for her hard-working and somewhat clumsy little sister in every detail, "These things ...... When your strength is strong enough, your mother-in-law should tell you naturally. ”

"So, am I qualified to know now?" Heiliga asked with a half-hearted smile.

"Huh...... Don't dare to be. Heiliga's attitude made Vita's attitude change. She looked at Helliga carefully, and her tone became much more cautious: "Honestly...... While I think it's a good idea to tell you the truth and ask if you'd like to cooperate, I'm also worried that your power will be beyond our control, with irreparable consequences. I thought, maybe forget it for now. ”

"......" Helliga pondered - what is the purpose of Vita's emphasis on the shaping of the sense of ritual?

"But for Levy's sake...... I'll give you a hint. Whether or not you can unravel it is up to you. "It's all about an 'atmosphere' – something that has to be earned through fighting. There is a relevant record in the secret file of the mediator. ”

"Atmosphere" ...... "mediator......" Helriga pondered the two words - the former aside, "mediator" should refer to a certain type of family with an ancient heritage. Just like Liber's royal family, and Crossbell's Cullois family. They all have methods that have been passed down thousands of years ago, including a glorious history, and a connection to the Seven Treasures—

Wait, Arcana?

"Looks like you've got some clues...... Then congratulations, you are not far from the final truth. Vita smiled, "If you can understand what I mean...... Later, if I have the chance, I will tell you everything. Of course, before that, you have to prove that you are trustworthy. ”

"Does that mean it depends on how far I'm prepared to get involved?" Helliga looked at Vita, and had no intention of stopping her - seriously, Helliga hadn't figured out what the purpose of the association was, and what they were going to do with the Empire's Arcane Treasure that had been fused into "steel"? "Whether it's Crossbell's side or the Empire's side."

"Over there, if I'm not mistaken, the knights should be on the move—if nothing else, you'll be invited by your old friend soon. Of course, I don't mind telling you that the Society's plans for Crossbell are currently well underway, and as for the final result, hehe, the great leader of the alliance has his own conclusion, I don't think I need to say much. ”

"It's okay...... I'm not very interested in what you're doing over there. But if I have to say, I'm quite interested in those so-called "god machines". It is said to be a super humanoid weapon that can infinitely drive energy with the blessing of the power of the Supreme Treasure? I wonder how it compares to the angelic form of "White Face"? ”

"It's hard to say...... although the "Angel" is the complete energy body of the Radiance Ring, the fusion of the "White Face" and it may not be considered complete, which gives you, as well as Levi and the "Outer Law Hunter" a chance. As for the Divine Machine...... Although they are part of the power of the treasure of "Zero", their improvement in combat experience through this month of continuous learning and adjustment may make them a little different. ”

"Really?" Helliga raised an eyebrow - Vita may not have reached this level yet, so she doesn't understand - the most important truth in this world is power itself. Heliga knew that only a part of the power of the Supreme Treasure, no matter how well the experience was used, could not penetrate the decisive difference in the level of power - if Vita said this, if she really competed with those divine machines, the situation would probably still be very stable. However, this also means that the actions of the "association" on the side of Cross Bell are coming to an end.

After that, will they shift their focus to the Empire? Or is their current action in the Empire just a preceding step in the overall plan?
