Sitting on the chair, Humail narrowed his eyes and pondered for a long time. When the sun was setting and the warm sunlight shone on his body, Humail finally had an idea.
Humail waved his hand and set up a barrier in the room. Then, he touched his waist with his right hand and a palm-sized card appeared in his hand. It was inlaid with several pigeon egg-sized sapphires. It was a card with some kind of rune engraved on it.
Looking at the exquisite card in his hand, for some reason, Humail's expression became complicated. After a minute of silence, he lightly tapped the card with his right index finger. In the next second, the runes on the card immediately began to emit a faint white light.
After three seconds, a low voice came out of the exquisite card.
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
Humail didn't stand on ceremony with the owner of the deep voice. He immediately asked the question he had already thought of and calmly asked, "Do you know what Reyes is trying to do?"
Faced with Reyes's question, the mysterious being on the other end of the exquisite card fell silent. After a dozen seconds, just as Hummel was starting to get impatient, the mysterious being said faintly, "Do you think that lunatic Reyes will tell me what he wants to do?"
Humail knitted his brows slightly. It was apparent that he wasn't satisfied with the other party's attitude. However, he didn't express his dissatisfaction. Instead, he changed the topic. "Who do you have in Flosino?"
As soon as Humeis said that, the mysterious being on the other side of the card fell silent. Seeing that, Humeis frowned even harder. She hesitated for a while, then explained carefully, "You should know that I can't do anything to you right now."
After that, Humail waited quietly. The mysterious existence on the other side of the card gave him a reply. Humail's explanation had already put him in a lot of political trouble, so he couldn't reveal any more information.
The mysterious existence on the other side of the card didn't let Humail wait for too long. "Adolf isn't far from Flosinone."
"He's alone?" Humail was a little disappointed.
"How much more do you want?" the mysterious existence on the other side of the card said calmly.
"Fine, I need you to do me a favor." Humail gritted his teeth and said with difficulty.
Although Humail had only said that she wanted the mysterious being to help her with something, she didn't specify what it was. However, the mysterious being seemed to have understood her intention. After a few seconds of silence, it asked Humail, "Have you made your choice?"
"Yes." Humail, who had already made his choice, leaned against the back of the chair and closed his eyes.
"Great." After receiving Humail's confirmation, the mysterious existence on the other side of the card agreed.
The conversation between Humail and the mysterious existence came to an end. Although neither of them said what they were going to do or what they were going to do, everyone knew what they were going to do next.
Humail put the card back into his spatial ring properly. Then, he sat on a chair in the room and shook his head with a sigh. He looked helpless and dispirited. If someone else were to appear in this room, they would find it hard to believe that the middle-aged man sitting on a chair was the Cardinal Humail of the Church of the Lord of Storms, who held great power and could summon the wind and rain!

"Sister Elena, are you sure you don't want to see Connor?" In the outskirts of Flosinone, in a wooden house near the Mensaka Manor, Marguerite couldn't help but ask the cold woman in front of her.
After using the magic potion that Marguerite gave her, Elena's injuries recovered very quickly. Although Elena hadn't fully recovered yet, it didn't affect her ability to move, so she had no worries about protecting herself.
Elena, who had a guarantee, didn't want to suffer and hide in the dirty and disgusting environment of the Kompani Community. In fact, if she didn't realize it, no one would think that she, a Cardinal of the Church, would hide in a place like the Kompani Community. Elena had a great guarantee of her own safety, so she would never lower herself and hide in that damn red brick house.
It was a crime for a beautiful woman like her to stay in a place like that. Every minute and every second she stayed there was unbearable for Elena. Therefore, with the help of the magic potion, Elena, who had the ability to protect herself, left the Kompani Community as soon as possible.
What Marguerite admired the most was that Elena was really brave. She actually chose to hide in a building less than a kilometer away from the Mensaka Manor. Not only were the people from the Secret Society looking for her, but some people from the Church of the Storm were also looking for her with ill intentions.
Although the Mensaka Manor had experienced Reyes's attack, most of the Church of the Storm's facilities in the manor had been destroyed. Most of the Church of the Storm's institutions in the manor had also been removed from the Mensaka Manor and moved to other places.
However, there were still some people from the Church of the Storm left in the Mensaka Manor, and one of them might know Elena. Once Elena was recognized, she would be in a very, very dangerous situation. It was very likely that she would be attacked!
However, as the saying went, the most dangerous place was the safest place. Marguerite felt that no one would expect Elena, who everyone was looking for, to be hiding in the vicinity of the Mensaka Manor. At least, Marguerite would never think of it.
Hearing Marguerite's question, Elena waved her hand and said firmly, "Marguerite, I know you want to promote the cooperation between me and Connor Ferguson, but it's not necessary. After the incident of Conti pretending to be Reyes, it's very difficult for me to trust others now, especially when this person is Reyes's student."
