Lord of Mysteries: S Chapter 245: Dealing With The Aftermath

Chapter 245 - Dealing With The Aftermath

It was only when the three ladies entered the bedroom that Ebner realized that Fani was there as well. After a mont's thought, he guessed that she had sensed the commotion on the third floor and had co up to take a look.

However, Ebner didn't request her to leave. After all, the monster that attacked Xio might very well have been Baron Conva from 700 years ago. As for Miss Fani, who had gone to dig up Xio's mausoleum with him, she could barely be considered soone involved. There was no need to deliberately hide it from her.

Furthermore, if this lady hadn't run over to ntion what had happened at the Dragon Tooth Bar, he wouldn't have paid so much attention to Xio's ergency mission.

Elsewhere, Fors arrived beside Xio in a few steps. She pulled her up and sized her up a few tis. Only when she confird that she was fine did she heave a sigh of relief. She couldn't help but hug Xio. Then, she pressed down on her shoulder and said with a stern expression,

"Xio, how can you directly carry out such a dangerous mission without telling

anything!

"You clearly told

that if I were to join you, there would be a safe way out."

Xio blinked and said, "Aren't I fine... However, Fors, your body is very cold!"

As Xio said that, she seed to realize sothing. She turned her head to the side and changed the topic. "Ebner, can you help us find so clean clothes?"

Ebner froze for a mont before coming to his senses.

They didn't notice it in the pressing situation just now, but now that the situation has stabilized, they see that, apart from Fani, the other three ladies are in a sorry state... Especially Xio. Not only was her clothes drenched by the rain again, but she was also stained with dirt because she had been rolling on the ground while dodging the attacks...

They do need to change their clothes. It would be terrible if they catch a cold and fall sick... But at this ti... How am I supposed to tell Mrs. Skade...

At that mont, Ebner realized that he didn't have enough powers to "learn." It would be much easier if he had powers like Hypnosis, weaving mories, and stealing mories.

After struggling for two seconds, Ebner nodded in resignation. Then, he went downstairs and knocked on the Skade couple's door.

Then, under the couple's incredulous gazes, he revealed his intentions for coming.

...

In the East Borough, in an independent house of a slave rchant, Baron Conrad shook his neck to get used to his new body.

And behind him, the illusory Lady Aston floated in midair, circling the baron a few tis as though she was expressing sothing.

"Aston, I know what you an. Although this body is weak, it doesn't stop

from using my powers..."

Lady Aston flew up and then abruptly landed.

"Are you telling

why I didn't divine the young lady's whereabouts? Heh heh, it's not that I didn't divine it, but I had already used the connection of the black spots to spy on her location fifteen minutes ago... Unfortunately, the black spots on her body have already been completely removed! That should be the power of Sefirah Castle!"

At this point, the baron's eyes once again revealed a fervent look, but he quickly suppressed it and regained his calm.

Lady Aston stared straight at the baron, her upper body swaying from side to side.

"What are we doing now? Heh, I'll be heading to the library after daybreak... I have to figure out what a Beyonder Electromagnetic Cannon is and who that so-called Roselle is!" the baron said through gritted teeth.

Mrs. Aston tilted her head when she heard that, but she didn't do anything else.

...

Bridge Borough, Tucker Street, Dragon Tooth Bar.

As the military put away Sealed Artifact 1-010, the street returned to normal. The houses that were originally destroyed by the monsters and evil spirits instantly returned to normal. It was impossible to tell how tragic the situation was like being bombarded with cannon fire.

The military saint was in a good mood as he placed a sealed puppet into a tal box and stored it in his suitcase.

At this mont, a stream of light flashed, and the Church of Steam's Archbishop Horamick descended from the sky while stepping on bright flas.

"You look a lot more 'new' than before..." The military saint sized him up and quipped with a smile.

He clearly knew the person in charge of the Backlund diocese of the Church of Steam.

"Previously, the damage to my body had already exceeded 60%. It's very difficult to repair... I could only use a spare one... This body was refined when I was still an Alchemist more than twenty years ago. My appearance was also the sa as before, so I naturally appeared a little younger." Horamick didn't think much of it when he heard that, and he even explained a little.

"The chanical dolls created by Alchemists are indeed magical..." The military saint praised before changing the subject. He asked curiously, "I wonder which of the dolls made from the Church of Earth Mother's Ancient Alchemist is more useful."

"Oh, I can only say that they have their unique traits. Ancient Alchemists are more inclined toward Alchemical Life, and they like to create golems and other creations. As for us..."

Just as Horamick said that he suddenly stopped and looked up at the west sky.

The military saint also sensed sothing at the sa ti and turned to look over.

Soon, strong winds blew towards the Dragon Tooth Bar from afar. The Cardinal of the Church of Storms, the Archbishop of Backlund, Spellsinger of God, Ace Snake, and a few Mandated Punishers flew over.

The saint from the military, "His Excellency Snake," nodded at the visitor without panicking at all and greeted him. Then, he heard Spellsinger of God's charming voice.

"Admiral, why didn't you inform

about the three-party operation?"

When the military saint heard the question, he replied unhurriedly, "That's because our military and the Machinery Hivemind discovered the whereabouts of 1-025 through 3-111 at the previous eting... And you, the Mandated Punishers, were absent from that eting."

"We were caught up with sothing..." For a mont, there was nothing he could say. His aura weakened a little, and it took him a while to explain.

But he imdiately diverted the topic and asked again, "Did you get 1-025?"

At this point, Spellsinger of God felt that his tone was a little stiff. He added, "If you've already sealed it, I hope that you can return it as soon as possible... The Church of Storms will rember this friendship, and it will definitely repay you."

As soon as he said that, he swept his gaze between the Church of Steam's archbishop and the military saint. Finally, he stopped at the suitcase that appeared rather out of place.

Archbishop Horamick chuckled and replied gently, "I'm very sorry Your Excellency Snake. I wasn't able to stop 1-025... As for the admiral, I'm not sure. After all, I just returned."

The military saint held his suitcase and denied firmly, "I didn't see the Puppet either."

Ace Snake stared at him for a long while before nodding. "I hope you don't regret your decision today."

With that said, he walked out of the bar with the Mandated Punishers behind him. He helped the Machinery Hivemind team and MI9 evacuate the residents who had previously been evacuated to deal with the aftermath.

Despite being angry, he had to do sothing serious.

At this mont, Stuart, who had deliberately left bruises on his face without any treatnt, ca over and asked doubtfully,

"Your Excellency, we didn't attend the eting previously. It's obvious that the military is behind it. I even found so evidence... Why didn't you show it just now?"

Spellsinger of God glanced at the elite deacon who had spoken, but he didn't say anything. All he thought was:

"Punk, I also know that I'm very suspicious, but... that's a revelation!"

Seeing that the Cardinal was avoiding the matter, Stewart frowned and decided to write to the Council of Cardinals.

...

In the bedroom of the villa on Kingst Street, under Mrs. Skade's seemingly veiled look of contempt, Ebner received the dessert and beverage she brought and placed it on the coffee table.

A few ladies who had just taken a hot bath and changed into their pajamas happily picked up their cakes and muffins after thanking her. As they ate, they talked about what had happened.

Of course, it was mainly Xio and Ebner talking while the others were listening.

As she listened, she beca surprised. She suddenly said, "Ebner, could that monster with only his head left be Baron Conva?

"You managed to decipher the diary of the Baron? Why didn't you tell Emma and ?"
