Connor knew very well why Marguerite had taken such a huge risk to prevent Varga from clashing with the Church of the Storm!
As for Varga, even though she appeared weak and submissive on the surface, Connor understood her stubbornness better than anyone else. He believed that if it weren't for Marguerite, she would've already clashed with the Church of the Storm. If that was the case, things would be troublesome for Connor. With this thought in mind, Connor took a deep breath. Connor whispered gratefully to Marguerite behind him, "Marguerite! Thank you so much this time! "
"It's nothing. Your Countess saved my life when we were in Loen. This time, I'm returning the favor to her. From now on, the two of us don't owe each other anything!" Margaret stroked the hair that had scattered across her forehead and said calmly, "My Countess, you saved my life in Loen.
Seeing that Marguerite's prejudice against Varga was still so deeply rooted, Connor could only shake his head helplessly. Then, he organized his words and said to Marguerite, "You should know about the news of Reyes being severely injured by the Religion of the Earth's McKenna, right, Marguerite?"
"Is this true? I just received some rumors a few days ago and am currently confirming the accuracy of the news, so I didn't tell you, Connor. "Marguerite said in surprise.
"That's right, it should be true! The night we met, that old bastard Adolf wrote a letter to Varga and told her about this matter. He also said that after Reyes was severely injured by McKenna, she might come looking for me. Therefore, he hoped that if Varga wanted to avoid danger and leave my side to avoid meeting Reyes, she could go look for him. The Duke's faction will provide her with protection! "Connor whispered to Marguerite.
As he spoke, a murderous intent flashed through Connor's eyes. Although he said to Varga that he didn't mind and even asked Varga to seriously consider Adolf's suggestion, Connor had already marked Adolf's actions in his heart. As long as there was a chance, Connor would definitely make Adolf pay the price and let him know that he wasn't someone to be trifled with.
After explaining Adolf's matter, Connor paused and hesitated slightly, but still said to Marguerite, "Marguerite, I met Firo in Iprua!"
"Where did Firo appear?" Marguerite frowned and asked in surprise.
"Yes! I even had a good talk with him! " Connor sighed and didn't keep her in suspense. He continued, "Now, Firo changed his name to Mr. K and became an informant of Blake's Organization!"
"Mr. K? Informant? " Marguerite, who was already frowning, frowned even more after hearing Connor's words.
"That's right, he is now an informant of Blake's Organization!" Connor repeated and continued.
"In order to prove his identity, Firo showed me an identity token engraved with the runes of the Church of the Storm. Although I don't know what that identity token is, from an alchemy point of view, that token is very valuable. It's not an ordinary item. Not only that, but there is also a young official Magus called Vander Bekke who uses storm magic circles by his side."
"According to Firo, he met Bisping, who was sent by Reyes to kill him, in Spar Town. The two of them had a fight, and after he defeated Bisping, he recovered in Spar Town. Then he met the joint task force and was forced to join the Church of the Storm with the help of a nobleman. He became an informant of Blake's Organization!" Connor recalled.
After hearing more detailed information from Connor, Marguerite thought for a while and gradually relaxed her frown. She said with mixed feelings, "I see. I was wondering why the members of the joint task force were all transferred away. It seems like Blake's Organization was protecting his identity … How did you meet him, Connor? Does the fact that Cristante sent you to Iprua to kill Ruiz have something to do with Firo? "
"Marguerite, you're right. Cristante wanted to lure Reyes out, so he set a trap for me on Ruiz. He wanted to attract my teacher's attention to me. Firo disguised himself as Mr. K and van der Beek were the two executors of this plan."
"The Church of Storms, which Firo and Cristante represent, seems to have a plan to kill Reyes. Although they didn't tell me what the plan was, I feel like I'm an important part of it. As for why the Church of Storms sent two teams of arbitrators and two official wizards to monitor Ferguson Manor and Ferguson Residence, it's just as you thought. They're forcing me to join their plan!" Connor said helplessly. "That's right, Marguerite, it's the Church of Storms who sent two teams of arbitrators and two official wizards to monitor Ferguson Manor and Ferguson Residence.
After listening to Connor, Marguerite, who was sitting on the bench behind Connor, was silent for a full minute. Just when Connor was a little surprised and was about to ask, she suddenly said in a low voice, "Connor, can I ask you a question?"
Sensing the seriousness in Marguerite's tone, although Connor was a little surprised, he still replied seriously, "Marguerite, I don't know what you're going to ask me, but I can guarantee that as long as I know, I'll tell you!"
After receiving such a firm answer from Connor, Marguerite didn't have any reservations and directly asked Connor, "Then, Connor, do you know about the relationship between Reyes and the hereditary nobles?"
Marguerite's question really surprised Connor. He didn't know where Marguerite's question came from. After thinking for a while, Connor shook his head and said, "Reyes is my mentor and I'm his only student. He taught me a lot about cultivation and alchemy and imparted me a lot of valuable knowledge. However, when it comes to his background and other things, he and I have a tacit understanding. He doesn't tell me, and I've never taken the initiative to ask!"
"The only thing I know is that Reyes might be my relative. His background might be related to our Ferguson Family."
"That's right! Marguerite, do you still remember the grandaunt you told me about in Loen, Stefano Ferguson? "Connor lowered his voice and asked Marguerite behind him.
