Chapter 486: What an irresponsible Bernadette
"When?" Bernadette asked.
Louise had nothing to hide, and replied truthfully:
"A week ago, and as soon as I left the 'Witch Sect', I immediately took a boat to Baiam."
Bernadette paused and pointed:
"In other words, the time you left the 'Witch Sect' happened to overlap with the haze in Beckland."
Does it matter? Louise was a little puzzled, she didn't quite know what Bernadette's purpose was in bringing this up, but she nodded anyway and said:
"Yes, it was because of that smog that I was able to break away from the 'Witch Sect'."
Although Bernadette is one of the four pirate kings, as Russell's daughter and former princess, she is still kind in nature, so Louise will answer truthfully, hinting at her sense of justice.
Unfortunately, her understanding was skewed.
Bernadette didn't seem to care about this aspect of the problem, and she said with emotion:
"During my time in Beckland, I had the idea of trying to do something about the big smog event, but unfortunately I changed my mind later."
It sounded a bit foggy, but Louise quickly figured out what it meant.
Bernadette is currently the "Master of Prophecy" in Sequence 3, and she is only one ritual away from becoming an angel, which reads:
Prevent a catastrophe involving high-level forces.
For the high-level power of the sage, the answer is naturally self-evident.
Although the Great Smog of Beckland incident was ostensibly a disaster caused by a "witch of despair" trying to digest potions, in essence, there was indeed a high-level power involved behind this matter, and there was more than one, which was exactly in line with the ceremony of promoting the "sage".
It turned out that some time ago, Bernadette appeared in Beckland, and the purpose was this!
But fortunately, she changed her mind, otherwise it would probably be the result of failure.
After a brief thought, Louise responded:
"If it had been for your help, Beckland might not have suffered such a catastrophe."
Alas, I'm really becoming more and more hypocritical...... After saying this, Louise couldn't help but secretly despise herself, but after thinking about it, she was a "witch", and she was not ashamed to bow her head to Bernadette, a rich woman.
Sure enough, a chuckle came through her head, and Bernadette's voice became much lighter, and she said:
"I'm not as important as you think."
"Well, since you have broken away from the 'Witch Sect', then our promise has come into effect, which organization do you want to join me?"
Listen, how domineering does this say, "which organization to join", sound...... Louise didn't hesitate and replied directly:
"The Mysterious Queen's fleet."
"Elemental Dawn" doesn't have to be considered, and Louise is not an extraordinary person in the "Voyeur" path, so there is no need to provoke the "Hidden Sage", so it is more comfortable to be a pirate, and by the way, she can also play the "Witch of Pain".
As for revealing Bernadette's identity, Louise doesn't care about it, after all, Bernadette's honorific name has been clearly revealed, which is not difficult to guess.
Sure enough, this answer coincided with Bernardette's thoughts, and she agreed:
"Yes, I'll pick you up tomorrow."
"Ahh Is it so urgent? Louise was surprised and blurted out, "Are you right in Byam?" ”
Also, even if you are the "Mystery Queen", don't you need to talk to your subordinates first to invite new members to join?
Bernadette did not seem to be bothered by this, and she said aloud:
"I'm in the Southern Continent, but things are not progressing for the time being, so I can make time to meet you."
In this way, Louise breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, even if Bernadette was in Byam at this time, there was nothing to be afraid of, but this kind of coincidence was easy to make people a little uncomfortable...... Reining her thoughts, she continued:
"I've been answered about the question you asked the last time we met."
Bernadette was silent for a long time before replying:
"We'll talk about it tomorrow when we meet."
Then, the communication between the two ended, and Louise got up, withdrew the ritual, and waved her hand to break down the spiritual wall in the room, while bringing a breeze to blow away the remnants of the ritual.
Naturally, it was not just a day's journey from the Southern Continent to Byam, but as a senior sage, it was not difficult for Bernadette to make a journey, and Louise was really interested in:
"What is Bernadette doing in the Southern Continent?"
She is both the "Mysterious Queen" and the leader of the "Elemental Dawn", even if she can't sit in charge of the two mysterious organizations at any time, but what's the matter with running around outside like this?
One will be in Beckland, and the next will be to the Southern Continent...... Could it be that the Southern Continent has what Bernadette needs, and the ceremony of promoting to the "sage" is not successful?
If this is the case, it means that there is a high probability that there will be a relatively large crisis in the southern continent......
Suddenly, Louise stopped her thoughts, and she found that she seemed to be accustomed to thinking about the hidden meaning behind a thing, but in fact, this matter had nothing to do with her!
What kind of crisis happens in the southern continent, naturally there are Rune's high-level to take care of it, what does it matter to you? And even if Bernadette really predicted something, it was not something that Louise could mix, so why worry about it!
After figuring this out, Louise suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
For dinner, enjoy the familiar taste of Byam's specialty, as the sky darkens, the tide of the sea brings a moist sea breeze, and the whole estate becomes more and more quiet, like a lonely boat on the sea, flickering with a faint light.
As the last of the light faded, Louise got up from her bed and expertly changed into a dark nightwalker, just like she had done during the late-night assassination at Sequence Nine.
Although she had been promoted to Sequence 5, she still had to lose her basic caution, and Louise opened the window, jumped into it, and finally landed quietly on the ground, like a dexterous petrel.
She found a direction, and blended into the dim night, and the whole figure disappeared completely, and rushed towards her destination.
Through Mr. Hunter's report, Louise already knew the identities of the two intelligence agents who were connected to the "Lieutenant General of the Disease" Tracy, and even one of them was no stranger to Louise.
It was none other than the owner behind the Fragrant Leaf Bar, "Julius" Ozil.
Speaking of which, if Louise hadn't killed the former owner of the Fragrant Leaf Bar, this so-called "Julius" Ozil might not have known where to be a pirate!
However, Louise later bought the much-needed "Potions Material" at an extraordinary gathering organized by "Julius" Ozil, which can be regarded as a beginning and an end.
Now, fate has once again guided Louise back to Byam, where she once again crosses paths with the Fragrant Leaf Bar.
However, Louise's first target tonight was not this "Julius" Ozil.
