Laufey returned to the Ardagan family, finding lissa and the two guests hadn’t returned as though they were honoring the promises.
"Looks like you have made a decision." lissa squinted her eyes.
"Yes. My apologies for making the three esteed guests wait." Laufey politely lowered his head. "If it’s not too much to ask, may I know the two esteed guests’ titles?"
"!!!" The two robed people exchanged glances. Laufey alone shouldn’t know this, so it looked like it was Noel’s order.
After thinking for a mont, they decided to give their respective titles.
"Venom Overlord."
"Vampire."
"I have definitely received your titles. Thank you very much." Laufey nodded politely. "In that case, allow to pass on the ssages from my lord."
Laufey told them about the two ssages. They couldn’t help but furrow their eyebrows when they heard the first ssage.
They had been helping Noel, so they thought Noel would be helping them. However, they understood everything once the second ssage arrived.
It turned out the situation was much more perilous than they had originally thought. It was no wonder Noel was so concerned, to the point where he couldn’t lend a helping hand.
Then again, their Beast Kingdom had seven spirit transcendence rank experts. They should be able to solve everything themselves. This ti, they ca to bring back lissa simply because there was a job no one other than lissa could do.
If not for this, they would continue to leave lissa in Noel’s care.
After understanding the problem, the Venom Overlord couldn’t help but say, "It looks like we have to speed up our plan as well."
"You an that?" Vampire raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah. It can’t be helped." The Venom Overlord nodded before turning to Laufey. "Tell your lord this. We will still fight alongside you. Since this ti we’re the bait, please make sure they suffer a lot. You don’t have to worry about us.
"Regarding the ssage, we’ll send the confirmation as soon as the situation allows us. As you already know, the situation is extrely dangerous. If we recklessly send a ssenger, they might target them instead.
"That’s why we will have to act carefully. However, that ssenger will definitely co. Even if there’s no one else among us, I, Venom Overlord, will definitely send that ssage even if it ans dragging my dead body to this place."
Laufey lowered his head politely. "Thank you very much. I shall relay your ssage to the family head."
Venom Overlord then nodded to the other two. "Let’s take our leave."
Laufey guided them outside as they used their speed to leave the city without getting spotted by anyone.
...
Inside the Ardagan family’s mansion.
Anna was ditating the whole ti. Lightning sparked around her body. She was holding her sword in front of her, the tip had planted itself inside the wood due to how much ti had passed ever since she began her ditation.
Once she felt the three presences disappear from the city, Anna couldn’t help but open her eyes.
"It looks like they have returned." Anna muttered. "Sothing must have happened in the Beast Kingdom. However, Noel must have thought about sothing.
"My heart has grown uneasy this whole ti. It looks like whatever they’re planning next will go beyond what they have prepared during the succession battle.
"Do we have enough people? Should I invite another expert? Considering the situation, it would be good to ask Layla for help.
"But our movent must be monitored closely by the enemy..."
Anna fell deep in thought before rembering sothing. "There’s indeed soone who has that kind of potential."
Although it was ti for her training, she had no choice but to visit that person.
...
A few minutes later.
Anna was standing in front of the person she thought was capable of changing the tide. Although she didn’t know how much she would prove herself in this battle, she definitely had enough strength to make an impact.
Anna asked, "Incetta. Can you beco a spirit transcendence right now?"
Yes, the one in front of him was Incetta. Incetta was probably the only person who could beco a spirit transcendence soon.
She did reject the opportunity from Noel regarding the spirit transcendence path together with his mother, Layla, Dimitri, and Milfa.
That was because Vivi deed that Incetta’s talent was strong enough to go on her own path. As long as Vivi accompanied her, Incetta could beco a spirit transcendence sooner or later.
Although she didn’t know how much Incetta would grow in the future, she didn’t want to cut off her chance to beco a spirit king even though she herself didn’t know the path to beco a spirit king.
So, when Anna asked this, both Incetta and Vivi were confused.
"Pardon?" Incetta frowned.
"The enemy has begun to move. Noel might have so idea, but I don’t have any idea what they’re planning to do right now. However, it’s certain their initial attack will be related to the Beast Kingdom.
"My heart has grown uneasy this whole ti. They must be planning sothing big right now. So, I need to increase our card for assurance."
"I see. So, you want to beco a spirit transcendence as an assurance?"
Anna nodded. "If it’s too much for you, it’s fine to reject . I will seek another solution, such as my mother-in-law."
Incetta thought for a mont. Even Vivi considered the problem carefully. The situation might be more dangerous than they originally thought.
Vivi whispered sothing to Incetta. The latter weighed the pros and cons. After a whole minute, Incetta replied, "I don’t know if I’m suitable for this. However, there’s a chance I will be useful in this battle.
"It’s just... I need to make my own preparations. I’m planning to go to the demon territory right now. I don’t know how long I do need and how much ti we have left."
"I see. In that case, you should go. If it’s not possible, return imdiately. The enemy will definitely co from the demon territory in large numbers. That’s the only way to make a distraction, so you must be able to find it as well when roaming in the demon territory."
"Understood."
