Section 244 Expose

Section 214 revealed

Ashu Rufate was not a slow person, but after hearing the news that Rotia said, it took him a while to come back to his senses.

"You... are sure?"

"100% sure. I accidentally foresaw a neighbor from their childhood." Rotia said.

There are quite a lot of magic academies founded by the Star Domain Church, and there are many countries. Most of the students who go to the academy for the goal of spending money to learn magic. However, a very small number of academies were selected by the church and sent to the academy because of their excellent talents. Ninety percent of these people will become priests in the Star Domain Church, and become the core and backbone forces of various institutions such as academies, churches, temples, etc.

Ashu Rufate had seen how the two sisters studied magic without any external conditions, and knew that their research had actually reached a very high level. So he could understand that the church's magic academy must have absorbed them for the second reason.

"Anyway, this is probably the case. Before the age of thirteen, they lived in our country with their parents. To be more specific, they lived in the city of Eagle Falcon... a small town next to them was called... in short, they never left this country. Later, their parents passed away due to an accident, and shortly after that, they were chosen by the church."

"Even neighbors can't monitor the family's every move at any time," said Ashu Rufate. "For example, it might be a small lie - they said they were going somewhere, but they were actually going to another place. Or they had changed their minds halfway through the plan. This kind of thing is always common."

"Ashurufat," said Rottiya seriously. "This time Alexa went to Sivania for treatment, set out from the Hawks City and walked along the shortest road. The purpose of this trip was clear, and there was no delay in the middle... I can be sure that they would not be able to hang out and enjoy the scenery halfway. Even in this case, they still walked back and forth for eight months. Of course, Sivania was indeed a little farther away... If the destination was set to southern Ryan, then it would take at least six months on the road."

She paused and chuckled. "All six months away from home, no matter how dull a person is, she will not remember such a long-distance trip from her neighbor."

"But, it might also be halfway through... I mean...my father also went out for a long trip...and then met by chance..."

"Countess Marianne is a witness to this engagement. Why does a woman become a witness to the engagement? There is no doubt that this is because she is present. Since she is a witness, she is undoubtedly the one who saw both parents who made the engagement with her own eyes." Rotia said. "That is to say, your Aunt Mary was also among them. And your Aunt Mary... During that time, the striking figures of the Eagle City never left for a few months. Not to mention a few months, even if you leave for half a month, it will become a topic for a while. The problem is that this topic has not appeared. You can find an older nobleman to ask, the seventy-eighty-eighty-sixty-sixty-sixty-eighty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-eighty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-eighty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-sixty-s

"But there is another explanation..." Ashu Rufate stopped halfway, because he found himself trying to find the possibility, the tiny possibility for this matter. He defended the matter without realizing it, rather than doubting it.

"Whether there is a knight named Thomas in Ryan, at least we can be sure that Countess Marianne may not have a chance to know the Knight Thomas. Even if there is, the possibility is so small that it is negligible."

"Maybe it's really just like this." Ash Rufate replied.

Rotia could clearly feel the looseness of Ashu Rufat's tone.

"That old woman is an expert in lying. She was like this when she was young, using lies and her own coquettishness to deceive the men. In Eagle City, at least ten duels had occurred for her, and several of them were killed by both sides. Although some people say that time can wash away the edges and corners of people, it is obvious that this famous saying is ineffective for your aunt... During the time when you were not in Eagle City, she did a wonderful performance in the city, and you really should experience it yourself."

"What lie did she tell?"

"Objectively speaking, like all smart people, she did not say that clear lie. But she implies a lot of things with words! Yes, hints, although it is a very explicit hint, you can't accuse her of lying. This is the real expert level."

"I understand, I will find a way to ask if I have the chance."

"I'm so glad that your mind finally got out of the way." Rotia let out an unknown hum, "Okay, I won't disturb you to rest. By the way, I don't know if that little girl told you... General Beral hopes to have an informal meeting with several key figures in the Hawk City before the formal consultation, which is said to be in order to reach an agreement on some issues. Because your affairs may have been told, so... General Beral is likely to meet you first."

"I understand." Ashu Rufate ended the conversation with this sentence. Rortiya left, but Ashu Rufate kept sitting there and did not move for a long time.

...

Everything was as Robin expected.

The official of the Falcon City held a simple but decent welcome ceremony. Groone's current prime minister, Marquis Ellen, personally welcomed Beller and his party. After some red tape and polite words, Beller enjoyed a perfect welcome banquet and was taken to a residence not far from the temporary palace to settle.

Berell served as the commander of the coalition forces many years ago to defeat the invading barbarian army. So he still has some prestige and face in this country. In Robin's opinion, perhaps because of this, Groney officially met Berell's request for not being formal, but it didn't seem to be particularly rude. After taking a nap at noon, someone notified that Prime Minister Alinen could have an informal meeting with Berell.

"Robin, you're here to wait." Beller put on his full suit and said to Robin. "I believe this meeting will not take too much time."

"Sir, don't you take me?"

"Not this time," replied Beller. "I'm going to have a private...well, it seems to be a private meeting. In this case, bringing a entourage will probably make people like Ellen very unhappy. And an unhappy meeting... I think it won't bring any benefits, but it will also make things worse."

"Can……"

"Direction, Robin, this time. Alinn is the only exception. In fact, it is already difficult to make him agree to have such a meeting, let alone I want to know something from him." Belle seemed relaxed on the surface, but Robin and his general had been together for so long, and knew that Belle was a good person at pretending to be himself.

"What do you want to know from him?"

"Many, but there is no guarantee that we can get news." Berel replied. "Ellin is a typical conservative and old nobleman. His weaknesses are as obvious as his strengths. No one wants him to do things that go against his principles. No bribery or threat can shake him. It is a delusion to want to get comprehensive and detailed information from his mouth. But if you change the method, if you are careful and cunning enough, you can detect many clues of things from his words. Robin, to be honest, I am not good at this, but in this situation, I can only put it on the shelves."

After saying this, Beller left. Robin waited patiently in the room for a long time - as a young man was almost the limit, he finally waited for Beller's return.

To be honest, Beller's expression did not look like he was going to have a private meeting, but ran for three days and three nights. Because he sat down as soon as he entered the room, he gasped for a long time without moving.

"Sir, what's wrong with you?"

"It's so tiring to do things that I'm not good at," replied Beller. "But Robin, I finally confirmed several of my guesses."

"What kind of guess?" Robin asked.

...

"A Jin, the person we want to meet..."

"A senior executive of the local Pierce Chamber of Commerce," Akin said. "His name is...Sus?"

General Berel had arrived in Eagle Falcon City in the morning. As people know, the public's attention will only be attracted by one thing at the same time. The news that "the invincible General Berel is here and will lead reinforcements to the north" temporarily overwhelmed the "evil and terrifying Earl of Ashurufat" and became the hot topic of discussion now. Of course, after Berel leaves, they will turn their attention back to Eagle Falcon City again - this is beyond doubt. But during the few days of Berel in Eagle Falcon City, he will be the focus of everyone's attention. With this cover, Eagle Falcon can move freely and do not have to worry about being discovered by anyone.

After he left the seclusion place arranged for him by Rotia, the first person he looked for was Ajin.

Having said that, although Ajin is a complete businessman, he is definitely the kind of businessman with faith and principles. After Ash Rufate made the request, Ajin agreed immediately without saying a word. After agreeing, Ajin used the merchant's respectable spirit of fighting every second to arrange the meeting in half a day.
