As I said before, Master Enoch White returned to Kanta safely. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThis brought the Wright family's career to an end, but the story of the Stick of Truth had just begun.

Mr. Enoch guessed that if the Stick of Truth was stolen by Thor, he would have to find a way to get it as far away from Thor Periar as possible. It is likely that Thor fled most of the continent with the Staff of Truth, hiding somewhere under numerous pursuits.

A series of vast, quiet manhunts unfolded across the Empire, only to disappear again for some reason, as if nothing had ever appeared.

Since then, though, there have been some disturbing upheavals in the Empire. There was a revolt among the slaves of Demorah, and the matter was finally quelled by rivers of blood. Mages under Imperial control began to sprout thorns, and many of them left for Kanta, a refuge. Scholars questioned hereditary royal power and nobility and took to the streets to demand a dialogue with the emperor.

No matter how much the empire tried to exaggerate the panic of foreign enemies, to turn the finger at it, or to call these currents of thought that affected national politics the conspiracy of the enemy, it was not fruitful. The unity and passion of the War of Liberation seem to have grown old with time. Even Periyar I, who really possessed the Staff of Truth, Torah Perial is no longer alive.

The desire of the human heart is like a wild horse that has escaped the reins, finally getting rid of the days of being ridden on its body and running towards the free grassland. Although he himself did not know where the road in front of him would lead him. Scholars explain that a period of time was an inevitable product of a peaceful life without food and clothing, and people were free from war and strife. I began to think about the rationality of this country, of the world. On the one hand, it wants to prove that there is a perfect truth about the workings of the world, and that following it will eliminate all other rights and wrongs. On the other hand, it is out of concern for history. Elves have enslaved humans, and humans have enslaved orcs. The strong prey on the weak happen from time to time, and who can guarantee that they will not be the weak in this flood story?

Out of concern for their own safety and well-being, they made a request to the great and unattainable Emperor.

It was a time of rational revolution and peace, in which the senators were established, the royal power was limited, and the financial power, the political power, and the judicial power were divided and ruled. Before the Scarlet Night happened, things seemed to be moving in a good direction.

But looking back, less than 50 years ago. It is Periaar's name that is shouted in people's mouths, not freedom and happiness. They shouted when they fought, shouted when they greeted, and shouted when they prayed. It's like the state and the emperor are the only thing that humanity has, and people will give their lives for them for any trivial reason.

The upheaval of the empire during that time made me even more convinced of the existence of the Staff of Truth. But the White family, who don't have the slightest eyeliner and connections, can only learn so far.

In order to find news of the Stick of Truth, it may be a good idea to ask the Sanders family, the old friends of the White family 400 years ago, for help. As the city with the most people coming and going in the gray passes, Estir must know a lot of things. If the news of the Staff of Truth can be found in the clues, that is the best ending.

The trouble is that the White family's bloodline abilities are like a thin piece of ice that can collapse at any moment, and if anyone in the know hears that a mage named White has left Kanta, they will definitely try to treat me as an overriding threat of force. At that time, all humble long-cherished wishes, and even the safety of the entire empire, will be more complicated and dangerous because of my presence.

But how many people know about it, I can't know. With such uncertainty as things go, I can only assume that in the worst-case scenario, the White family's secret may not be a secret at some point. So I announce in a very high voice that I am going to set out in search of the Stick of Truth, the most important of which is to tell the people that Krinus White is ready to leave Kanta. Whoever knows my secrets will come into contact with me, and whoever knows my secrets will know the message of the Rod. But the fact that no one has found the Stick of Truth so far means that they have no reliable concrete information or that there is some obstacle.

If that were the case, they must have a desperate desire for information or characters to break the deadlock, and signposts disguised as the Stick of Truth would have kept them from acting rashly against me.

So I said that I could easily find the Stick of Truth. In order to make my unsubstantiated story more convincing, I gave up all my family's assets and openly argued with the important members of the empire. I believe that this bluff conceit was clever enough that Marcellus would take the trouble to care about the spread of the news, and even come to negotiate with me.

Through this negotiation, I learned three things, that the White family's blood power is not a semi-open secret, that Marcellus knows a lot about the Stick of Truth, and that Martin Marcellus is now at a disadvantage in his confrontation with me.

Oh, and the best thing for us. The entire Empire still scoffs at the existence of the Staff of Truth, and many potential enemies will be somewhat distant from our adventures.

And Marcellus, in order to show his sincerity, exposed a major weakness to me. It was he who had concealed the Staff of Truth from Azir McGee, which was perhaps his greatest fatal weakness.

"What if Martin and Azier conspire in the matter of the Staff of Truth?" Noah asked.

"I must object to this view," said Crinus, "a king who rules over Rant, and a man of boundless ambition. How likely is it that they will work together to share the Almighty Relic?"

"As far as I know, it can't be. Augerst said.

"That's right, the Imperial Capital is not a place where alliances and friendships are born. "It's also a rare advantage for us. ”

Ebner, who had been nervous before, was now dumbfounded by the information pouring into his mind, shook his heavy head and said, "Why didn't you tell us this?"

"Because I'm afraid of leaking the news. Krinus said.

"You are one of the many similarities to Miss Serena, suspicious. Noah complained.

Krinus was silent for a moment and said, "I just made the best strategy." All my plans are based on conjecture, which makes them unpredictable, and I don't want to make any more noise. When I am faced with many possibilities and probabilities, I choose the side that is most in line with logic. When I'm going to do something that can lead to a lot of probabilities, I also choose the safest side. ”

"Are you thinking that I might be able to tell your secret?" said Ebner in a low voice.

"Don't be unhappy, my friend. "There are many things that can happen," said Krinus, "and perhaps someone will ask you, or perhaps you may have slipped through your illusions, or even that your dreams at night have ruined the adventure." And you're not a good liar, I don't even need to look at your face to know if you're lying, and if someone asks about it, what might happen. ”

"Enough gossip, what's next?" asked Serena.

Able lifted his head, which was already lying on the table, and the long story made him sleepy, and besides, it was too late.

"Why don't we find a place to sleep?" replied Abel in a daze.

Krinus also realized that it was not too early, so he put the conversation on hold.
