Hearing this, Benjamin, who was in the shadows, was stunned for a moment. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

...... What the?

All along, Benjamin has been hiding his identity. The fugitive aristocracy of the Kingdom of Horry, the debate between Benjamin and Grant...... His original identity was too complicated, and it was far less convenient than making up a new one. Therefore, the suffix Reeser has disappeared from his life for a long time, and he has not bothered to think about it anymore.

However, at such a time, Master Finch suddenly revealed his true identity.

How did he know?

Benjamin felt strange. There are not many people in the world who know his identity, but the other party can say it so surely. This made him feel a little uneasy suddenly.

How many people still know that Benjamin Reeser escaped to Freden?

Church...... You know?

On Finch's side, Benjamin didn't control the phantom anymore. Therefore, Finch only received an indifferent response, and his eyes were naturally a little puzzled.

“...... Master Benjamin?"

"Alright, that's just an illusion I made. In the end, Benjamin didn't bother to pretend any longer, waved his hand, dispersed the phantom, and walked straight out of the shadows.

There are no traps in this place, and there is no need to hide any further. Although he still can't figure out the other party's intentions, he is just a potion mage, if he still doesn't dare to face it, then it is better to shrink into the barren mountains and mountains for the rest of his life, there is no danger.

He walked over, looked at the somewhat stunned Mage Finch, and said, "How did you know my identity?"

Throughout the process of Benjamin's appearance and the disappearance of the phantom, the other party obviously didn't expect it. Finch was stunned for a moment before he smiled dumbly: "I see." ”

"What do you mean?" said Benjamin.

"Actually, you don't have to be so nervous. Finch shook his head, spread his hands, and said, "You know the person who told me all this. The president of the Mage's Guild, he sent you out of Ikor, am I right?"

...... Oh?

When Benjamin heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Finch continued to explain: "You've probably heard the rumors about me lately. Yes, I've always been in touch with Ikor privately, but I'm by no means a traitor. The person I contacted was not the Queen, but the President. As for the relationship between the Mage Guild President and the Queen, I think you know that too. ”

Benjamin pondered for a moment and nodded.

Using secret potions and the infighting of the mages, the queen holds the mage's guild firmly in her hands. The president was powerless about this, but he couldn't bear to do anything to the queen, so he had to send Benjamin and his party out so that they would not continue to be trapped in Ikor.

Although he was suspicious of the president's words, he generally judged that he did not feel malicious intent. If it weren't for the president's help, it would have been difficult for Benjamin and them to come to Fredon.

"How do you ...... relationship with that president," he couldn't help but ask.

"A lot of people don't know that he's actually my real introductory teacher. Finch replied, "Originally, I wanted to be a battle mage and be accepted as a student by the guilder. But I didn't have any talent for fighting, and in the end, under the introduction of the president, I re-worshipped a new teacher, and then embarked on the road of refining potions. ”

Benjamin nodded thoughtfully.

The information that Miles told him was actually verified here. When the empire was divided, Mage Finch helped Ikor gain a lot of wealth from the old mage's guild and establish a new guild - in fact, he didn't help Ikor, he just wanted to repay the favor.

Finch also went on to explain, "After the Empire broke up, I kept in touch with the President. It was only when the church staged a coup d'état in Regina that our contact was severed and only restored last week. So I didn't know until last week that you weren't a spy for the church. I'm sorry to have passed on your bad words. ”

Benjamin was silent for a while and shook his head: "...... Forget it, since it's a misunderstanding, let's let it pass. ”

It seems that the other party really misunderstood him for a spy.

In this case, the misunderstanding is cleared, and there is no need for them to continue hostility.

Master Finch's explanation was complete, and it felt like there was nothing wrong with it, and Benjamin could accept it. Besides, there was no deep hatred in the first place, he took revenge when he should have taken revenge, and it was a good thing for him to be able to turn enemies into friends.

At least...... This friend is rich.

"Could it be that Freden also has a spy in the church?" he couldn't help but ask.

"Don't underestimate those guys. Finch said with a serious face, "Ikorl can help Freden block the paladin's iron hooves, but he can't stop the infiltrating light." I've also found some clues that someone in Freden is secretly in contact with the Kingdom of Hori, and they have been in contact for a long time. ”

...... No way?

Benjamin immediately recognized the seriousness of the problem.

"Who's in contact with that? a lot?"

Finch shook his head: "I don't know. ”

"And what clue did you find?"

"One material. Finch replied, "Silver Leaf Grass is a Holy Light Affinity material, which is very common here, but extremely rare in the Kingdom of Hori. A few years ago, when I was buying goods, I found that there were people in the market who periodically bought a large number of silver leaf grass, and the final destination was unknown. When I investigated, I found that the materials had disappeared after they had been transported to the border, and that nine times out of ten they had fallen into the hands of the church. ”

Silverleaf grass......

Although there is no such thing as potions in the Kingdom of Horry, when he thinks of those extravagant crosses, Benjamin thinks that it is very likely.

It's tricky.

In Freden, a country where there is absolutely no church, there are people who periodically buy goods for the church, and it has been operating steadily since several years ago. Will there be fewer such spies? Maybe there are more than in Ikol!

Thinking of this, Benjamin couldn't help but gasp.

How can the chess pieces of the church be like cockroaches, with tenacious vitality, and they can not get rid of them wherever they go?

"Mage Finch, are you really not looking for any other clues?" he asked.

Finch still shook his head: "Those people are hiding too deeply. Like in Ikor, the queen couldn't find anyone, so she had to use the royal conquest to lure them out. In the past few years, I have sprinkled more than 100,000 gold coins on it, but I have not been able to investigate anything, but I may have surprised them and made them more cautious. ”

As he spoke, he sighed and looked remorseful.

When Benjamin heard this, he also felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

The moment he realized the church, his first thought was to let the gang go back to their hometown. However, the Mage of Finch had spent countless sums of money, but he still couldn't come up with anything. Benjamin is still in its infancy, so what can it do?

The more he learned about the church, the more he felt the horror of his opponents. It may not be very powerful, but it is pervasive, immortal and immortal, it is like a mythical monster, if you cut off one head, it can grow two more, and if you burn it to ashes, it can also resurrect.

"That'...... Just let them go ahead?" said Benjamin, unwillingly.

"His Majesty must know what we can discover. Finch shook his head and said, "Your Majesty will have a way." No matter how rich and powerful we are, we are just one person, and we can't do anything. ”

Your Majesty is still busy dealing with the Mage Freemasonry, what energy can you have to deal with the Church?

Benjamin sighed.
