In Claire's bakery, Claire was teaching Louisa how to make marmalade. The fox masked man pushed the door open and came in. "Quick, quick, whatever it is. Give me a drink. My throat is burning."
"Where did you go? How come I haven't seen you for so many days?" Royce raised his head and noticed that the latter was wearing a new mask. This time, the fox on the mask was drawn in a charmingly naive manner.
The man in the fox mask took the lemonade from Claire and gulped it down in one gulp. He let out a satisfied sigh and said, "Hmph, you always say that I don't do proper work all day long, but this time I'm doing proper work."
"That's strange." The female archer put down the marmalade in her hand and glanced at the guy opposite her. "Tell me, what did you do?"
"Didn't a Man Killer Fiend appear in Siamus a while ago? I've been looking for it for the past few days" the fox-masked man returned the empty cup to Claire.
"What's the result?" Royce raised an eyebrow.
"I've found out its origin. Two months ago, a guy with the code name Arc Light in the Heresy Court applied for the transfer of a monster with a danger rating of Class B, and the Heresy Court approved his request. The monster was transported by sea and arrived in Gudilesi half a month ago."
The fox masked man snapped his fingers, "The timing just happened to coincide with the appearance of this Man Killer Fiend, that night was probably the first time it showed itself to the world. Unfortunately, its luck wasn't good, it ran into someone even more ferocious than it was and was beaten to the brink of death, tsk tsk, as a famous monster from the Holy Grimoire, this guy is a bit too pitiful"
"Who is Arc Light?"
"I don't know." The fox-masked man shrugged. "It's not easy to get the codenames. In fact, no one knows who's behind each codename except for the instructor and the Chief Inquisitor. It's also a way for the Court of Heresy to protect their subordinates." Pausing for a bit, the fox masked man continued, "But I did find that Man Killer Fiend, Gudilesi, where the Heresy Trial is located, has a secret hideout, the monster is most likely recovering there"
Louisa had been following the fox masked man for more than two years, but the longer they stayed together, the more she felt that she couldn't see through her teacher. The fox masked man was like the most difficult riddle in the world. Every time she thought she was close to the answer, she would always find that it was just another riddle of another riddle.
For example, this time, the man in the fox mask only disappeared for a few days. When he showed up again, he not only got the code of the undercover personnel sent by the temple to the school, but also found the secret stronghold of Gudilesi where the heresy trial was held in just a few days. How did he do this? Apart from himself, no one else could answer this question.
"Then what do you plan to do, teacher? Do you want me to tell Foreman? "
The man in the fox mask shook his head. "Foreman can't take down that stronghold alone. Besides, he doesn't even need to do anything. We still have other masters."
"You mean Magus Xavier? But that guy won't necessarily cooperate with our arrangements "
"No, no, the master I'm talking about is the guy who beat that Man Killer Fiend to the brink of death by himself that night" The man in the fox mask smirked. "Since that guy is so good at fighting, we should find something for him to do"
Royce sucked in a breath of cold air. "Teacher, aren't you being a little too wicked? You can easily kill someone like this. No matter how powerful an expert is, they won't have a good ending if they provoke a behemoth like the Heresy Court."
"I actually think that guy already has a grudge with the Heresy Trial" The fox masked man seemed to be pointing at something, "Do you still remember that little girl from the Bretton clan called Lolo? She cheated on the entrance exam, but not a single person in the hundreds of people present noticed, and even the anti-cheating device didn't react. Haha, the guy behind her isn't simple at all"
"Huh? Teacher, do you suspect that the person behind her is the guy with the golden staff that night?" The female archer thought for a moment. "Well, there's a student called Rob who entered the school with her. He seems to be looking for you, teacher. Not long ago, he asked for information on Foreman and Hobson from me. He wants to start from the relationship between the two and find the intersection between them. According to what you said before, all the information I gave him is true."
"Aiyo, not bad. Foreman and Hobson are indeed good entry points. If it was an ordinary person, I'm afraid he would have caught their tail by now. Unfortunately, his opponent is me. Haha, his thinking has a fatal mistake from the beginning. If he doesn't get out of this mistake, he will never be able to find me." The man in the fox mask bared his teeth. "By the way, I don't think the mysterious magician behind Lolo is him because I've seen him. He's too young, but there's no need to rush to conclusions. In fact, we'll get the answer soon."
"Hmm?"
The man in the fox mask crossed his fingers and said slowly, "I know what the little girl of the Bretton family wants most, so I can give her a reason to attack the Court of Heresy. In this way, the guy behind her won't just watch her die. But I've always been a fair person, and I won't let her suffer such a big loss for no reason. If she really attacks that stronghold, I'll tell her the answer to this question."
Louys frowned. "But have you ever thought about what if you guessed wrong? There's no mysterious master behind her, or the mysterious master happens to be absent during this time. If you let her rush into that stronghold, it's simply a suicide mission."
"The guys from the Court of Heresy won't do anything to her unless they have no other choice. The order they received is to bring her back to the north in one piece. Well, what you said makes sense. This result is even worse for her than death. How about this, if she can attack that stronghold, I'll give her something else." The man in the fox mask shook his head and stopped the female apprentice from continuing.
"The girls of the Bretton family are different from ordinary people from birth, so you can't look at her with the eyes of ordinary people. She has chosen the most difficult path, and it's destined to be full of thorns. In the future, she will face even more dangerous situations. If she can't even pass this, it means she won't live long." The man in the fox mask said lightly.
"Teacher, can't you protect her? Just like how you protect your Blackie. "
