Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

"When did it happen?" Bernadette asked.

Louise had nothing to hide, and replied truthfully:

"A week ago, and as soon as I left the 'Witch Sect', I immediately rushed to Bayam by boat."

Bernadette paused, as if pointing out:

"In other words, the time when you left the 'Witch Sect' happened to overlap with the smog in Backlund."

Is it important? Louise was a little puzzled, she didn't quite know what Bernadette's purpose was for bringing this up, but she still nodded and said:

"Yes, it was because of that smog that I was able to leave the 'Witch Sect'."

Although Bernadette was one of the four pirate kings, as Roselle's daughter and former princess, her nature was still kind. That's why Louise answered truthfully, hinting at her sense of justice.

Unfortunately, her understanding was off.

Bernadette didn't seem to care about this issue, she said with emotion:

"During the time in Backlund, I had the idea of ​​trying something in this smog event, but unfortunately I changed my mind later."

These words sounded a bit cloudy, but Louise quickly figured out the true meaning of the words.

Bernadette is currently the "Master of Prophecy" of Sequence Three. She is only one ceremony away from becoming an angel. The content of the ceremony is:

Stop a catastrophe involving high-level forces.

For the high-level power of the saint, the answer is naturally self-evident.

Although the Great Smog Incident in Backlund appeared to be just a disaster caused by a "Desperate Witch" trying to digest the potion, in essence, it did involve high-level forces behind it, and there were more than one of them, which happened to be in line with promotion. "Sage" ceremony.

It turned out that the purpose of Bernadette's appearance in Backlund was this!

Fortunately, she changed her mind, otherwise, there would be a high probability that it would be a failure.

After thinking for a while, Louise responded:

"With your help, Backlund might not have suffered such a catastrophe."

Sigh, I'm really becoming more and more hypocritical. After saying this, Louise couldn't help but secretly despise herself, but then she thought about it, she is a "witch", and she is not ashamed to bow her head to a rich woman like Bernadette .

Sure enough, there was a chuckle in my mind, and Bernadette's voice became much lighter, saying:

"I'm not as important as you think."

"Forget it. Now that you have left the 'Witch Sect', our promise has come into effect. Which organization do you want to join?"

Listen, what you said, "Which organization to join?" sounds so domineering. Louise didn't hesitate, and answered directly:

"The fleet of the 'Queen of Mysteries'."

"Elemental Dawn" doesn't need to be considered, and Louise is not a Beyonder of the "Secret Peer" path, so there is no need to provoke the "Hidden Sage", so it is more comfortable to be a pirate, and she can also play the "Witch of Pain" by the way.

As for exposing Bernadette's identity, Louise didn't care about it. After all, Bernadette's honorable name had been clearly displayed, so it wasn't difficult to guess.

Sure enough, this answer coincided with Bernadette's thoughts, she agreed:

"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow."

"Ah! Are you in such a hurry?" Louise was surprised, and blurted out, "Could it be that you happen to be in Bayam?"

Also, even if you are the "Queen of Mysteries", don't you need to communicate with your subordinates first to invite new members to join?

Bernadette didn't seem to have any troubles in this regard, she said aloud:

"I'm currently in the Southern Continent, but things haven't progressed for the time being. I can spare time to see you."

That's it, Louise breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, even if Bernadette is in Bayam at this time, there is nothing terrible. It's just that this kind of coincidence makes people feel a little uncomfortable. Concentrate your thoughts, and then she said:

"I've got an answer to the question you asked when we last met."

Bernadette was silent for a while this time before replying:

"Let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow."

Afterwards, the communication between the two ended here. Louise got up, withdrew the ceremony, waved her hand to break down the spiritual wall in the room, and at the same time brought a breeze, blowing away the remaining spirituality of the ceremony.

From the Southern Continent to Bayam, it is naturally not just a one-day journey, but as a senior saint, Bernadette has no difficulty in catching the way. What Louise is really interested in is:

"What is Bernadette doing in the Southern Continent?"

She is both the "Queen of Mysteries" and the leader of "Elemental Dawn". Even if she can't be in charge of the two mysterious organizations at any time, why is she always running around like this?

I was in Backlund for a while, and went to the Southern Continent for a while. Could it be that the Southern Continent has what Bernadette needs, and the ceremony of being promoted to a "sage" is not possible?

If this is the case, it means that there is a high probability that there will be a relatively large crisis in the southern continent.

Suddenly, Louise stopped her thoughts, and she found that she seemed to be used to thinking about the possible hidden meaning behind a thing, but in fact, this matter had nothing to do with her at all!

Any crisis in the Southern Continent will naturally be taken care of by Loen's senior management, so what is it none of your business? And even if Bernadette really predicted something, it's not something that Louise can mix in, so why worry about it!

After figuring this out, Louise immediately felt a lot more relaxed.

At dinner time, I enjoyed the familiar Bayam specialties. As the sky darkened, the tide of the sea brought a burst of moist sea breeze, and the whole manor became more and more peaceful, like a lonely boat on the sea, flickering faintly. bright.

As the last ray of light disappeared, Louise got up from the bed and skillfully put on a dark night clothes, just like she did during the late-night assassination in Sequence Nine.

Although she has been promoted to Sequence Five, she still cannot lose her basic caution. Louise opened the window, jumped forward, and finally landed on the ground silently, like a dexterous petrel.

She found a direction, and then blended into the dark night, the whole figure disappeared completely, and flew towards the destination.

Through Mr. Hunt's report, Louise already knew the identities of the two intelligence agents who were in contact with "Vice Admiral Disease" Tracy, and even one of them was no stranger to Louise.

It was the owner behind the Fragrant Leaf Bar, "Giant Man" Ozil.

Speaking of which, if Louise hadn't killed the former owner of the Fragrant Leaf Bar, this so-called "Giant Man" Ozil might not know where to be a pirate!

However, Louise also bought the much-needed "Magic Medicine Ingredients" at the Extraordinary Party organized by "Giant Man" Ozil, and it was considered a beginning and an end.

Now, fate once again guides Louise back to Bayam, and once again intersects with the Fragrant Leaf Bar.

However, Louise's first goal tonight was not the "Giant Man" Ozil.
