"Looks like some kind of sword aura, I guessed right?" asked the clone, staring at Swell. The sword aura just now was too domineering, making him feel a huge threat.

"Let's not talk about this for a while, let's talk about where the light divine power in this leather bodysuit comes from?" Swell didn't think about whether to reveal the sword qi to the clone and Nikki for a while, so he changed the topic in an attempt to get by.

"From a small man, a bard who can draw the power of light with sacred hymns. The doppelganger said lightly.

"Is there a bard who has mastered sacred hymns?" said Swell, taken aback. In his mind, after the so-called hymns and hymns of the two major professional skills have been lost, the profession of bard, which has been reduced to the point of being deceived and abducted, should have been eliminated long ago. He never expected that there would be a bard who could use these two skills.

"Surprised, isn't it? If you knew the true identity of that bard, you wouldn't be so surprised. The doppelganger paused and looked at Swell with a smile.

"What is his true identity?" Swell asked eagerly, if he could hold this bard in his hands, it would not be a dream to create a replacement for Chalmers' mask. - In Swell's consciousness, a professional like a bard is not in his eyes at all, and it is easy for the Holy See to control it.

The doppelganger didn't answer Swell this time, but looked at him with a strange gaze without saying a word.

"Why? Don't you want to share this information with me?" Swell asked, frowning.

The clone glanced at Nicky quietly, and Nicky immediately interjected: "Cardinal Swell, we have revealed a piece of news, do you think you should also share with us what the sword qi in your body is?"

Swell immediately understood that the doppelganger was preparing to exchange information with him. He hesitated for a moment before he said with determination, "Okay." I can tell you, in fact, this is a very humiliating thing for me, and it is the Lost Sword Saint Aufilas who left this sword qi behind!"

"Could it be that you have the help of the Lost Sword Master?" the clone was secretly shocked after saying this guess. Ophelas is worthy of being one of the five powerhouses in the continent, and the sword qi he left behind can actually compete with the light divine power! If his guess is correct, with Ophelas's help, Swell will undoubtedly gain an absolute advantage when fighting for the dominance of the body, which is something that the clone is absolutely unwilling to face.

"It would be nice if that were the case. Swell smiled bitterly, he had already used this time to think of countermeasures, so he said frankly to the clone: "As soon as I returned to the imperial capital, I was pulled into his sword qi realm by the Sword Saint. Lord Sword Saint has asked me to create a body for him within six days at the latest, otherwise the sword qi he left in my body will automatically explode and to pieces. ”

Originally, Ophelas asked him to retrieve the trunk of the Tree of Life from Bischut in three days and make the body in another three days, but Swell was unwilling to tell the doppelganger that he and Bishut had also met, so he vaguely added the two to everything, lying that there were six days.

"Hmph, I can't imagine that the dignified Lost Sword Saint would use such a despicable means to blackmail you!" the clone sneered.

"Your Majesty Swell, it's not hard to understand this. It is said that Lord Ophelas had recently fought a fierce battle with someone, and that he was wounded a lot. Judging by the time he left Cardinal Swell, he was anxious to return to his primeday at the opening of the canal. As far as I know, it seems that only we have the ability to reshape his body, and he has no choice but to do so in order to force us to comply. Nicky was unusually calm at this point, and his head was analytical.

Swell nodded again and again after hearing this, Nicky's performance refreshed his cognition again, Nicky's guess turned out to be the same as the truth, it seems that this guy does have some real skills.

"Isn't our merger plan affected?" said the clone unhappily. Before he was sure that he was absolutely safe, he didn't want to merge easily, the sword qi that Ophelas left in Swell's body was undoubtedly a very dangerous time bomb.

"If you tell me the minstrel of the minstrels, I can give you a reassuring pill to ease your worries about our union. Swell wasted no time in interjecting.

In fact, he and the doppelganger are equally eager to complete the merger before the celebration, and only after the merger can they reach their full glory and strive for the maximum benefit for themselves and the Holy See branch at the celebration. According to the convention, after the annual celebration, the major forces show their muscles, and in the negotiations after the celebration, the division of forces of the major forces in the coming year will be decided.

This year, because there were two celebrations in succession, the post-celebration negotiations were placed after the opening of the canal, and Swell, in its heyday, would undoubtedly be more deterrent than the current divide-and-conquer situation.

In terms of fighting for interests, Swell and the doppelganger have surprisingly consistent views, even if they both complain about Istta's favoritism towards Olufi, but after Ista leaves office and Olufi falls, both of them invariably regard themselves as the heads of the Holy See branch. Unable to contact the Holy Mountain Headquarters, they regarded the Holy See Branch as their own private force, and naturally they could win as much benefit as possible.

"It's no secret. Anyway, when we get together, the information will be shared. But since you're so anxious to know, I might as well tell you in advance. "The doppelganger doesn't seem to have hidden anything from Swell in this matter, in fact, the information about Alfie's true identity has probably been placed on the table of the major forces in the imperial capital at this time. After all, Alfie's identity is not difficult to find, and Alfie has never realized that he should deliberately hide his identity - in fact, Alfie himself does not know how big his true identity is, he has always thought that he is wearing a down-and-out bard.

Swell had a deferential expression, and he had vaguely guessed that the true identity of the bard must not be simple.

"I think you've heard a name, Octat Inoch. The doppelganger slowly said a name.

"Is he?the author of the History of the Empire of the Eliat?is he still alive?" Swell exclaimed, with a relieved expression on his face, "If it is the greatest bard that claims to be the greatest bard in the history of the continent, it is not surprising that he can use the sacred hymn to attract the power of light!"

"It's not a claim, it's a fact!" the doppelganger corrected Swell's biased assessment.
