Even though Marguerite wanted to bring Elena and Connor together, she didn't know what to say. She could only say helplessly, "If that's the case, Sister Elena, I'll go back now. Feel free to contact me if you need anything."
"Okay, Marguerite, you should be careful too …" While Elena was talking, her expression suddenly changed. It seemed that something had happened. Marguerite nodded at Elena, then put on her hood and walked out of the small wooden house where Elena was hiding.
However, to Marguerite's surprise, less than 100 meters away from the small wooden house, she heard Elena's serious voice.
"Marguerite, there's an unexpected situation. I need to tell you about it."
Even though Elena's voice was very serious, Marguerite, who was very familiar with Elena's personality, could sense the awkwardness in Elena's words.
Sensing the awkwardness, Marguerite was naturally curious about what had happened. Without hesitation, she put on her robe and went back to the small wooden house where Elena was hiding. Before she could ask what had happened, Elena said to her with certainty, "Hummel is here in Flosinone!"
Hearing Elena's words, Marguerite was shocked. However, she had already realized this when she discussed it with Connor, so she soon calmed down. She thought for a while and asked Elena, "Project Magic Mirror?"
Because it was Elena who had revealed the information about Project Magic Mirror to Marguerite, Elena wasn't surprised that Marguerite knew about Project Magic Mirror, which was a huge secret of the Church of the Storm. Therefore, Elena hesitated for a while when Marguerite asked, but she still nodded slightly under Marguerite's gaze. She then explained.
"Although I didn't say anything, it has only been two or three days since I reported Jovic's situation to His Holiness. To be able to arrive in Flosinone in such a short time, I can't think of any other possibility other than using Project Magic Mirror to teleport to Flosinone."
Marguerite nodded after hearing Elena's explanation. Elena had the same idea as her. Logically speaking, there was only one possibility for Hummels to arrive in Flosinone in such a short time.
After pondering for a few seconds, Marguerite saw that Elena didn't say anything, so she took the initiative to ask, "Sister Elena, do you need me to do anything?"
Marguerite was a smart person. She knew that Hummels' arrival in Flosinone meant that the situation in Flosinone had changed. For Elena, who was Hummels' biggest threat, this was a huge danger signal!
Therefore, under such circumstances, Elena must have her own reasons for calling her back. It wasn't an accident!
Elena didn't know what exactly Elena wanted to do with Marguerite. Hearing Marguerite's question, Elena's expression turned serious and a touch of embarrassment flashed across her face.
Marguerite who caught the change in Elena's expression was even more confused about Elena's intention, so she added, "Sister Elena, it's all thanks to you that I was able to stay safe and sound in the Church all these years. If there's anything you need me to do, just let me know. You don't have to be polite with me!"
Elena was touched by Elena's words. She hesitated for a while, then said awkwardly, "Well, Marguerite, can you arrange for me to meet Connor?"
"Um …"
Upon hearing Elena's request, Margaret, who was already mentally prepared, was stunned. Then, she immediately felt that it was very funny. She also understood why Elena's expression and words were so awkward. Elena was so resolute in her rejection just now. But in the blink of an eye, Elena actually took the initiative to arrange a meeting between her and Connor. This really made one unable to restrain a smile.
Although Marguerite felt that Elena's behavior was a little funny, Marguerite didn't want to make fun of her anymore since Elena was already so embarrassed.
After thinking for a while, Marguerite looked at Elena and asked tentatively, "Sister Elena, what do you plan to do with Connor?"
Elena didn't answer Marguerite's question directly. Instead, she asked back, "Marguerite, didn't you tell me that Connor Ferguson is an alchemist, and that he made the top level-two magic staff by himself?"
Although Elena didn't understand why Elena suddenly changed the topic to alchemy, she still nodded and admitted it.
"Yeah! Most of the alchemy tools I use are made by Connor. Sister Elena, you know that Reyes taught Connor all his alchemy knowledge. Connor's current alchemy level is probably only a little lower than a grand alchemist who can make level-three magic items … "
At this point, Margaret's voice paused. She suddenly came to a realization and understood Elena's thoughts. Shortly after, she said, "Sister Elena, are you planning to ask Connor to help you repair the Blizzard Staff?"
Seeing that Marguerite had already guessed it, Elena didn't hide it anymore. Under Marguerite's gaze, Elena sighed and explained, "If it weren't for this Storm Staff, I would have already died at the hands of Reyes in the Mensaka Manor. Although I'm still alive now, the Storm Staff is seriously damaged. I originally planned to slowly recover it, but now that Humiles is here, I don't have the time."
"I don't know what Humiles is thinking, but no matter what he is thinking, I have to prepare for the worst and try my best to recover my strength. I have a feeling that Humiles is going to attack me …" Elena looked at Marguerite and said in a lonely voice.
