"Even the tracking device placed on the Watcher's apprentice, Pedro, has lost its function. Davit Chilia is nowhere to be found, so we can only try our best to find him. However, I'm not sure if we can find the culprit …" Dezerby lowered his head in shame.
That day, under Connor's intentional escape, Dezerby, who thought he had tricked Connor, led the rest of the church's arbiters and wandered around the outskirts of the Navas Forest for a period of time, waiting for Connor's turn.
After waiting for more than ten days without any news from Connor, Dezerby had no choice but to lead his men back to Flosinone. However, what he didn't expect was that the Church of the Storm in Flosinone had suffered heavy casualties under Reyes's attack. The people in charge were either dead or injured. Some were even captured alive by Reyes.
De Zerby's unintentional act of waiting for Connor in the Navas Forest did not expect that he and his subordinates would coincidentally avoid the sudden attack of Reyes and the others. If he had not waited for Connor in the Navas Forest and led his subordinates directly back to Flosinone, then De Zerby and his subordinates would have ended up like Andrew, Giovanni, and the others and been captured alive by Reyes's subordinates.
Just when Dezerby realized the situation in Flosinone and was considering if he should escape with his men, Humail's sudden appearance was completely out of his expectations. If he hadn't met Humail a few times in the Church of the Storm, Dezerby wouldn't have believed that Humail could travel from Bernabeu to Flosinone so quickly.
As the Red Cloaked Archbishop of the Church of the Storm, Humail was also the most likely person to become the next Pope of the Church of the Storm. He was indeed very capable. As soon as he arrived in Flosinone, he immediately stabilized the Church of the Storm's situation in Flosinone with his powerful strength, tough tactics, and already high prestige. Everything began to return to order. Dezerby, who luckily escaped with his life, naturally belonged to Humail's men and listened to his orders.
In the past few days, under Humail's leadership, Dezerby, and the reinforcements, official Wizard Davit Chilia, the Church of the Storm gathered their forces after their disastrous defeat. After being attacked by Reyes, they clenched their fists and prepared to take revenge on the Secret Society and Reyes.
After listening to Dezerby's explanation, Humail, who was resting with his eyes closed, remained silent for a few seconds. He then opened his eyes and his deep gaze fell on Dezerby. Dezerby, who was already lowering his head in shame, felt a wave of pressure when he felt Humail's gaze. He lowered his head even more.
Humail glanced at Dezerby, who had his head lowered. What surprised Dezerby was that Humail did not blame him, nor did he continue to ask about the magic potion. Instead, he changed the topic and asked, "How's the situation outside?"
Dezerby, who had just calmed down, became nervous again after hearing Humail's question. He did not know what Humail's question meant.
From Dezerby's point of view, Humail's "How's the situation outside?" sounded like he was asking about Flosinone's situation. However, after thinking about it carefully, Dezerby felt that Humail's question seemed to have a deeper meaning.
After quickly analyzing Humail's thoughts, Dezerby said very cautiously, "Flosinone's current situation is normal. None of the strongholds have been attacked. Those guys from the Secret Society seemed to have disappeared from Flosinone overnight. They did not leave any traces behind."
"Also, the two official Adepts, Andrew and Giovanni, as well as the captive Adepts of the Church, have also been captured by Reyes and the others. There's no news at all!" Dezerby explained helplessly.
Humail did not say anything after Dezerby finished speaking. Instead, she looked deeply at him. Seeing this, Dezerby hesitated for a while, then lowered his voice and said to Humail, "We don't know where Elena is either. That day, someone saw Elena escaping after being severely injured by Reyes. As for Marguerite, she was sent away by Elena when Reyes attacked the Mensaka Manor. We don't know where she went either."
Although Dezerby said "we don't know" twice, which sounded worthless, Humail's gaze towards Dezerby softened a lot. Sensing the change in Humail's gaze, Dezerby, who knew what his words meant, could not help but sigh in his heart.
Humail did not make things difficult for Dezerby and asked Dezerby his second question.
"Dezerby, you've been in contact with Conor Ferguson for a long time. What do you think of Conor Ferguson?" Hummels looked at Dezerby and asked in a deep voice, "Dezerby, you've known Conor Ferguson for a long time.
As soon as Humail said this, a look of surprise appeared on Dezerby's face, as if he did not expect Humail to ask him this question.
Dezerby did not immediately give an answer to Humail's question. Instead, he pondered for a while. Judging from his expression, he should be quite conflicted about this question.
"Connor Ferguson is very cunning and completely unpredictable. Anyway, I don't understand him, and I don't have a good impression of him!" After thinking for a few minutes, Dezerby reluctantly gave an answer to Humail's question.
After receiving Dezerby's answer, Humail neither confirmed nor denied it. He just waved his hand expressionlessly, telling Dezerby to leave.
Dezerby immediately bowed to Humail, then quickly left the room. Humail's aura was too strong, and Dezerby could feel that it was very difficult for Dezerby to stay by his side. He even felt a little out of breath.
