“I plan to try applying for admission to Augustus or Ansu United University College. Do you want to co along?”
Ciel asked, “Go to school together?”
“School?”
Avena blinked.
“Now... doesn’t seem like admission season?”
Avena hesitated for a while, then said, “Ansu City universities have three sesters in an academic year. The ‘Trinity Sester’ is ending now. School won’t start until the ‘Michaelmas Sester’ in early October... Haven’t you just graduated recently?”
Ciel: “...”
Just thinking about attending school, she had forgotten that it was currently holiday.
Looking at Ciel’s adorable, stunned expression, Avena couldn’t help but smile slightly. She said with amusent:
“Going early to get used to it is fine. Once I finish handling the factory handover, we can leave.”
“Around... within a week, I guess.”
“Mm.”
Ciel nodded and casually said, “Good. During this ti, I can also persuade others to go to Ansu...”
Persuade others?
Is she going to bring others along too?
Avena seed to sense the hidden aning in Ciel’s words. She asked, “Berren City... will it be unsafe for a while?”
She knew Ciel’s personality very well. Ciel was very protective. As long as she considered soone her own, she would basically protect them completely, which was evident from Ciel’s earlier persuasion of Adele not to go to North Ansu.
Ciel wanted everyone else to leave Berren City. Considering the intelligence organization behind Ciel, which was more accurate than prophecy, it was difficult for Avena not to think that sothing bad might happen in Berren City.
“Yes.”
Ciel didn’t hide it from Avena and directly stated where the danger was: “The Society of rrint is targeting Berren City this ti not because of the large-scale sacrifice activity of the Divine Advent Church before, but because of the Church of the Savior Goddess.”
“Even if the Clock Tower Church manages to avoid disaster this ti because of my plan, other people from the Society of rrint will co later to execute tasks... We cannot stay here for long.”
“Large-scale migration from North Ansu, the Orlando Republican Army hidden among them, grain rchants who want to lift the export ban on grain, constantly protesting workers recently... There are simply too many things that can be exploited.”
“And I got their confidential docunt from before. That ‘Subverter’s’ original plan was to instigate the Orlando Republican Army to assassinate you, and then fra the Church of the Savior Goddess.”
The Church of the Savior Goddess... So the target was the Church of the Savior Goddess? And they wanted to assassinate ? Why?
Avena fell into contemplation. Soon, she thought of a possibility.
Among all the orthodox churches now, only the Church of the Savior Goddess was completely overwheld by the North Ansu famine. It was the weakest ti. So ti ago, even the Clock Tower Church couldn’t produce a Tier 2 transcendent. The Holy See had to dispatch people to solve the problem.
Wanting to subvert the Church of the Savior Goddess, now was indeed a good ti.
Moreover, most mbers of the Orlando Republican Army were followers of the Church of the Savior Goddess. If they caused trouble, the Church of the Savior Goddess couldn’t escape responsibility, and she herself had intricate connections with William, who signed the law...
It was indeed an ingenious framing plan... Unfortunately, they encountered Ciel’s organization.
She just didn’t expect that the organization behind Ciel had actually grasped the movents of the Society of rrint to this extent... It was as if they were watching them act.
“I understand. I will expedite the handover process.”
Avena, realizing the seriousness of the matter, nodded, then got up directly. “I’m going to change.”
Avena was extrely decisive. When she said she would accelerate, she would leave imdiately.
“No need to rush. A ‘Subverter’ is dead. It’s probably safe for a week or two... Weeks.”
Before Ciel finished speaking from behind Avena, Avena had already left the art room, closing the door behind her.
What a whirlwind.
Ciel, who had originally wanted to ask Avena if she was thirsty, withdrew her gaze and also got up directly.
But as soon as she got up, Avena, who had already walked out the door, took a few steps back and looked at Ciel: “Ciel, when are you going to see your sister?”
“Huh?”
Ciel, who was suddenly asked this question, was stunned for a mont. After hesitating for a while, she said, “I was just about to go...”
“Tonight, let’s have dinner. I will... go with you to see your sister.”
Avena seed to have made a decision. She said to Ciel.
“Why?” Ciel asked instinctively.
“I haven’t formally t your sister... And you can’t explain your money or your relationship with to your sister, can you?”
Avena said, “I’ve already thought it through for you. So we’ll go together tonight.”
“Thought what through? What explanation??? Hey, Avena!”
Before Ciel could ask clearly, Avena left directly, leaving Ciel alone in disarray... But soon, Ciel seed to have reacted and slightly straightened her back.
Could this be... eting the parents?
Thinking of this, Ciel, who was usually calm, couldn’t stay calm now.
Calm down, Ciel... Maybe Avena really thought of so good ideas...
Since she was going to see her sister with Avena tonight, she would see others first...
Adele, Amy, Tara... Her mind briefly ran through these few people.
Amy was uncertain. After all, she was currently just an ordinary, simple young girl who had only slightly lifted the veil of the transcendent world. She might not follow Ciel and the others to Ansu City. Even if she agreed, her parents would be another problem.
Adele was easier to persuade. Getting her to Ansu City shouldn’t be a big problem.
As for Tara...
She would definitely have no objection to coming along, but the problem lay in her identity.
Did she have a perfectly concealed identity? Like the Keyman’s disguised identity? And would she be discovered by other high-tier transcendents? Would cultists look for her?
These matters concerned whether Ciel could live a peaceful life in Ansu City.
Ciel decided to go find Tara first and clarify these questions.
In reality, Ciel hadn’t seen Tara since their eting that one ti. She also didn’t know if Tara had left or gone out after being left alone for so long...
Since the person she was going to see was a cultist, Ciel didn’t use Avena’s carriage but walked to the Gem District.
