“What about you?” Avena looked into Ciel’s eyes and asked, “Will you be in danger?”
According to Avena’s experience, once Ciel said that sothing dangerous was not dangerous, eight out of ten tis, Ciel was going to take risks.
Looking at the worried Avena, Ciel thought for a mont, then pulled her to the bedside, had her sit down, turned to the table, tore a piece of paper from a new notebook, and began to write on it.
【The Royal dical Association was bombed by the royal family themselves, to prevent the Redemption Society from researching an antidote, because Forte wants to use the North...】
【The Church of the God of Order is urgently looking for a new Saintess, and even has ideas about Nia, but their specific purpose is unclear. I speculate it might be to increase the pressure on the Church of the Savior Goddess...】
【A high-ranking mber of the Society of rrint is facilitating the reunification of the Divine Advent Church and the Church of the Savior Goddess. This matter will consu a great deal of the energy of the Church of the God of Order and the Royal Orchestra. They will have no ti to do other things...】
Soon, the paper in front of Ciel was filled with half-truths and half-falsehoods.
The information on it was all significant. Any single piece, if revealed, was enough to cause a bloodbath in Ansu City—provided soone believed it.
But when Ciel brought this paper to Avena, Avena just glanced at it, her pupils constricted slightly, then she quickly stood up and lit the paper by the oil lamp.
After the paper had burned to ashes, she collected the ashes and threw them all into the washbasin in the washroom, turning on the faucet and washing all the ashes away.
After quickly doing all this and wiping her hands clean, Avena walked out of the washroom and looked in Ciel’s direction.
“This is... intelligence from your organization?” Avena almost didn’t need to think. She already had the answer in her heart.
“Mm.” Ciel nodded.
“Soone is taking the heat for us.”
“Phew...”
Avena slowly breathed out and gently shook her head.
It was precisely because she knew the royal family so well that Avena was completely unsurprised by the royal family doing such things.
She was only surprised by Ciel’s source of information... The explosion had only happened one night ago, and Ciel had already received this information that was originally top secret.
It seed that even after leaving Berren City and coming to Ansu City, the influence of the intelligence organization behind Ciel had not diminished at all. In fact, the information provided was even more detailed.
What a terrifying organization... Their infiltration into Ansu had reached such a deep level.
However, Avena, when faced with this information from Ciel, was already numb. She no longer had the initial shock she had experienced when facing increasingly significant information.
“Ciel, don’t tell anyone about these things. Not even Nia.”
Avena looked at Ciel and instructed, “Their ntal power, if they know this information, it is very likely that they will have information extracted from them by transcendents using their abilities.”
“I know.” Ciel nodded.
She hadn’t intended to tell anyone else about these things in the first place. If she absolutely had to tell soone about these things, Avena was the only person she would choose.
“About moving, you can move first.”
Avena thought of sothing and said, looking at Ciel, “I still need to stay at the Deton Hotel for a few more days.”
“Okay, I’ll stay with you.”
Ciel already knew the reason for Avena staying when she was reading the notes her simulated self had written.
Avena’s return this ti was not to show weakness to her family, but to follow Ciel’s advice and decide to develop in Ansu City. Therefore, her first banquet was particularly important.
Although the forced acquisition of the mine was also a reason, it was definitely not the key reason.
“What do you plan to do next?” Avena asked.
“Mm...” Ciel lowered her head in thought.
Before going to see Adele, Ciel had already reviewed the events of the simulation.
The ti of the previous simulation was 8 days ago, which was July 9th. If she went to that day, Ciel could catch the missing “Ritualist” Fred and extract so information from him.
The event in the future simulation was 3 days later... According to what her simulated self had recorded, nothing worth noting happened that day. She had only written about so changes that occurred after the explosion, such as the patrolling guards.
After a mont of hesitation, Ciel decided to go to 3 days later.
The current situation was different from what her simulated self had encountered. At this mont, Forte likely already had hints. By going to a future point in ti, she could see if there had been any changes in reality due to the influence of “Uniqueness,” and prepare counterasures in advance.
“Let’s settle them first before thinking about other things.”
Ciel shook her head and replied to Avena, “I don’t have any good ideas right now...”
Knock knock knock—
A knock on the door interrupted Ciel and Avena’s conversation. Ciel looked at the door. After waiting for a mont, she said, “Please co in.”
The door opened. A woman wearing a golden chip mask appeared at the doorway.
“Uh... Am I interrupting your conversation?”
Lucy took off her mask and looked at the two in the room. She didn’t walk in directly.
“No, I was just about to look for you for sothing.”
Ciel slightly nodded at Lucy and said, “Co in.”
“Okay... Good afternoon, Miss Ciel, Miss Avena.”
After entering, Lucy turned and closed the door. As she walked towards Ciel, the corner of her eye caught sight of the untouched lunch.
“What is it that you needed to see about, Miss Ciel?”
Lucy leaned forward slightly, looking at Ciel, and asked.
Ciel also stated her needs. She needed Lucy to help arrange the timing for the others to move into the new house. She also needed Lucy to help hire so temporary servants to transition for a while.
Lucy naturally agreed to this small matter imdiately. This kind of thing could be handled by the people below. However, Ciel’s sister, Lucy had to personally ensure everything was taken care of.
Afterward, Ciel also made a request for Lucy to help purchase a bottle of “Gardener” potion and the complete reconstitution ritual.
This request surprised Lucy a little, but she also agreed imdiately, without ntioning money.
A bottle of Tier 1 potion. ntioning money would be too presumptuous—does Miss Ciel look like soone who couldn’t afford 1000 pounds?
In reality, Ciel at this mont probably couldn’t even produce 5 pounds—all the money was with Avena.
