Marguerite's face lit up when she saw the icy beauty on the water screen. She bowed slightly to the icy beauty and said softly, "Good day, Sister Elena!"
The icy beauty on the water screen, Elena, was the youngest Cardinal of the Church of the Storm in the history of the Church of the Storm. Hearing Marguerite's greeting, the icy beauty on the water screen, Elena's icy expression softened a little.
"Good day! Marguerite, how is your life in Flosinone? "
"It's not bad! The only thing is that the air here is too cold, the vegetation is sparse, the soil erosion is serious, and the sandstorms are very strong. It's really incomparable to the environment in Bernabeu! "Marguerite said with some distress.
A faint smile appeared on Elena's icy face when she heard Marguerite's complaint. She said softly, "Perhaps the natural conditions in Flosinone are a little worse, but I'm sure you're willing to stay there, Marguerite. After all, the power of love is great!"
When Elena said the word 'love', she purposely emphasized her tone and glanced at Marguerite with a faint smile.
Marguerite, whose thoughts were exposed by Elena, immediately blushed. However, she immediately pretended that she didn't understand and changed the topic. She said to Elena, "Sister Elena, I received some news from the frontline. Milik hasn't killed Firo in the Navas Forest yet."
Hearing Marguerite mention Firo, Elena's expression changed and she fell into silence. Just when Marguerite was wondering why Elena was like this, Elena said faintly, "Three hours ago, the soul crystal ball that Milik left in the headquarters of the Church, Saint Antis Church, shattered …"
When Marguerite heard Elena's words, a shocked expression appeared on her pretty face. As a Wizard of the Church of the Storm, Marguerite naturally understood what Elena meant.
The official Wizards of the Church of the Storm, as well as some high-ranking Wizard Apprentices with great potential, would plant a soul crystal ball in the Church of the Storm.
As the name suggested, the soul crystal ball was naturally closely related to the Wizard's soul. It was a method that the Wizards of the Church of the Storm used to combine alchemy and soul magic. If a Wizard of the Church of the Storm who had a soul crystal ball implanted in the Church of the Storm met with an accident and died, the soul crystal ball he left in the Church of the Storm would shatter into four or five pieces, indicating the death of the Wizard of the Storm.
As for the crystal pieces that were produced due to the shattering of the soul crystal ball, after some technical processing, they would reflect some of the circumstances of the Wizard's death.
Although it was somewhat hard to believe that a person like Milik, who was highly regarded by Cardinal Hummel, who was bossy and domineering in the Church of the Storm, had died just like that, with Elena's status as a Cardinal, since she said that the soul crystal ball of Milik had shattered upon his death, then 99.9% of the soul crystal balls that Milik had left in the Church must have shattered.
"Conor Ferguson, did he mention anything about Milick to you?" Seeing that the astonishment on Margaret's face didn't seem to be fake, Elena opened her mouth and asked again, "Conor Ferguson, did he mention anything about Milick?"
"I only told him that Milik was a ruthless character and that he should be careful of him! Apart from that, he did not mention anything else about Milik to me! " In the face of Elena's inquiry, Marguerite did not hesitate at all as she answered directly. Her tone was very certain, without the slightest hesitation.
It could be seen that Elena still trusted Marguerite very much. After Marguerite answered, she did not pursue any further, and instead changed the topic. "Did Connor Ferguson tell you anything about his mentor, Reyes?"
Ever since she realized that the matter between her and Connor had been discovered by Elena, Marguerite knew that Elena would ask her this question sooner or later.
However, when that day really came, although Marguerite was still able to maintain a certain level of calmness on the surface, she could not help but sigh silently in her heart. Then, she told Elena the answer that she had prepared long ago, "Connor told me that there was very little news about his mentor, Reyes. But judging from his behavior, although he is not afraid of Reyes, it can be seen that he is still very wary of Reyes."
At this point, Marguerite intentionally or unintentionally observed Elena's facial expression on the water screen. Then, she continued, "Previously, Connor found out through some people in the Secret Society that there might be something related to Reyes around Flosinone. So, one of the purposes of Connor Ferguson's return this time was to investigate those things that might be related to Reyes."
"Because the threat that Reyes poses to Connor is real, there was a period of time when Connor intended to get closer to Prince Jue's faction when he was in Flosinone. However, because he wanted to maintain a high degree of independence and did not completely rely on Prince Jue's faction, there were some fundamental conflicts between him and Prince Jue's faction, and the progress between the two sides was not very smooth."
"This time, Connor attached great importance to the cooperation with the Church. He also hoped to borrow the power of the Church to get rid of Reyes and remove the threat that he is facing." Marguerite told Elena the answer that she had long prepared.
In Marguerite's eyes, Connor was her other half. The two of them had been together for many years and had experienced many ups and downs together. Their relationship was very sincere. Elena was her older sister who grew up with her and was her superior in the Church. She had always taken care of and protected her in the Church of the Storm. So, now that she was sandwiched between Connor and Elena, Marguerite was still under a lot of pressure. She was very conflicted and uncomfortable.
Previously, when she realized that Elena had discovered the matter between her and Connor, Marguerite did not take any chances and avoided this matter like an ostrich. Instead, she was prepared to be asked about Connor by Elena. She thought about it again and again and prepared the answer in advance, which was what she was telling Elena now.
Although Marguerite's words seemed to have said a lot about Connor, 90% of the content was information that the Church of the Storm had already grasped. As for the other 10%, it was also some insignificant information. There was nothing wrong with telling Elena.
