readx;?“ What's the matter with your haggard face?" said Serena, holding half a glass of sweet wine, "Looks like you've solved a big problem." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Although Klinos was not injured in any way, he had already exhausted his reserves of arcane energy, and if the old man just now continued to entangle with him, he was afraid that he would really die.

The food on the table was eaten, and the empty plates seemed to have been emptied by magic. Looks like everyone has a good appetite, and Clinos smiled slightly.

"We left your main course and dessert unserved...... Ebna said.

"No, that's all for today. "Even if it's a tavern, it's late now," there will be no shortage of food in the mansion, I'm tired now. Klinis said.

August had drunk a great deal of spirits, and was now drowsy, though his mouth was not moving, and he must have agreed with it very much.

Almost all the clean waiters were left in the tavern, and the faint sound of clattering dishes seemed to remind the guests that it was time to close.

Noah seemed to know something, and wanted to say it, but he stopped. Everyone asked Selina what Klinos was doing, because Serena's mind reading must know, but she said that she needed to give people more **, so no one asked anymore.

"Where did you go?" asked Ogst drunkenly, "I must have been clever again and ran to do something troublesome." Don't you trust us to keep it a secret!"

"It has nothing to do with trust. Klinus said, "If I tell you something, it will cause unnecessary worries, or more trouble, and you will come to help." ”

"You think it's bad to have someone to help?!" Ogst wanted to bang on the table, but he didn't bother to do it half-asleep. I can only shake the crooked head to express anger.

"You're drunk, Uncle August......" Abel whispered, but Augst didn't retort.

"Help should be used where help is needed, and this thing does not need help, and it cannot be helped. Clinos said, "Did I understand?" Mr. Pendragon. ”

When Ognel Nicholas requested a meeting, he made it clear that he had to go alone and to keep the Freemasons secret. Klinus did not intend to break the contract, mostly because the Freemasonry had a reputation for non-violence for hundreds of years, and many famous mages and scholars were involved in it.

"So......" Augst said lightly, "I see." ”

Rickon Saunders, who had been watching from the sidelines, wondered, "Why don't you get to the bottom of it?"

"Well...... Noah got up, moved his body that had been sitting for a long time, and said, "If the general's order needs to be understood by every soldier before it is executed, wouldn't the world be chaotic." ”

Everyone returned to the Sanders mansion with a not very satisfying ending, and the words in the clouds made people feel that something shocking was happening around them, but Klinos just didn't let everyone know, giving rise to a subtle sense of insecurity. As a mind reader who can see through everything, Serena naturally has a lot less of this feeling. Ebner and Augst were tormented by this feeling, and although they both believed in Klinos, there was a small part of their hearts that these secrets would lead to some misfortune.

That night, when he returned to the mansion, Clinos did not ask the cook to make something, but said to everyone:

"We'll leave for the Imperial Capital tomorrow. ”

This means that Abel will be staying in Estile. If nothing else, he will stay at the Sanders Mansion as a diner forever, and there will be no mess with Noah to help take care of it. Thinking that he had to go to the imperial capital and ask Martin Marcellus, Clinos was a little unwilling. However, if the Freemasons have not discovered the Staff of Truth after 300 years, there is no need to search for it in the Empire. It's the only way to see what's in Martin's head.

Klinus was not very reassuring to Noah and Abel, and told them that if Lord Hank wanted to do something, he could threaten him and say, "Even the dead can snitch." ”。 Speak to the guards, subordinates, and deacons in the mansion, and the news will reach the ears of Martin Marcellus, and this is his assurance to me.

Abel didn't quite believe that a father would really do something to his son. Clinos wanted to tell him a story, an anecdote about the time when the orcs were liberated, but he couldn't. Just tell him that anything can happen.

The nights were not long for Clinos, and after a period of annoyance and weariness, Clinos soon fell asleep.

Ogst was also drunk and unconscious, but it made people feel that Ogst at this time was the most real knight of justice. usually wraps himself in the aura of morality, but in fact, his heart has long been eaten away by guilt. Knights who seek pain, drunkenness, and death, and pursue a chance to make amends for the knights they once were. On this night, he was exposed to everyone from under the honorary title that should have been removed a long time ago.

The night was quiet, but Serena was quieter than the night. She walked up to Noah's door and knocked on it. Like knocking on the other victims who died tragically under Serena's dagger, suddenly and inevitably.

"Writing?" said Serena.

"Yes...... Noah's gaze dodged, "a new story about a mage who went through war." Finally, he loses faith in humanity and turns himself into a troll to rule the Goblin Kingdom, which is surrounded by despair. ”

"Sounds interesting. Serena said, "But I want to know something else." ”

"Anything I know, just ask. Noah said politely.

"Yes, Noah Sanders. You must know. Serena unnoticed, touched the dagger at her waist and said, "What is the purpose of your Freemasons?"

Noah was stunned for a moment, and said calmly: "Can't you really hide it...... The purpose of the Freemasons is to understand the truth of the world, and to explore the truth on the basis of the principle that the world is reasonable, self-consistent, and rational, and to put an end to all metaphysical misinformation. ”

"Looks like you're not going very well, and now you're all getting a glimpse of the Staff of Truth. Serena said.

"I don't know the details, the Freemasons attach great importance to concealment, and small characters like me can only act according to the instructions of their superiors, and nothing else is known. Noah said, "Even if you are caught, you will generally not reveal any secrets." ”

"It's really tightly organized. Serena said, "Why did you join?"

Noah said with some self-deprecation, "All I can say is that I love the truth and happen to have friends who can introduce me." ”

"I'm sorry to disturb you, Noah-sama. Selena silently withdrew her finger toward the dagger, ready to help Noah close the door, "If there is nothing else, please rest early." ”

Noah didn't understand what he had been through, and he just thought that Serena had some questions in her heart to solve.
