At this time, the young man was standing under the street light, looking around, with a look of curiosity and nervousness. After seeing this scene, Nephnis immediately walked over. The man walked behind him without noticing, and then whispered softly.
"Excuse me, are you...Mr. Capac?"
Hearing the voice behind him, Qingqi was startled, then turned around and looked behind him. After seeing Nefernis, he was slightly stunned, and murmured with his eyes wide open.
"I, I'm Capak, you...you are..."
"You can call me 'thief'. I was sent by the 'maester' to pick you up. I'm glad to meet you here, my friend from the New World."
Facing Capac in front of her, Nefnis said with a smile.
…
In a teahouse on a street somewhere in the port area of East Tivian, in a corner booth with a brazier, Nephnis and Capac sat opposite each other, looking at each other.
"So... Miss Thief, you are the one sent by Mr. Bachelor to pick me up? You belong to the same organization as Mr. Bachelor and Mr. Detective, and you believe in Aka?"
Capac asked Nefernis with a curious tone, while Nefernis pretended to be mysterious and put her finger in front of her mouth.
"Shh... Please keep your voice down, Capac. Our organization is a secret society in the 㹏 Continent and cannot be known to ordinary people. You'd better be careful when talking about this kind of thing in the future."
"Ah... is that so? I'm sorry, Miss Thief, I'm from the tribe, and I just arrived here so I don't know much about the situation. Please forgive me for anything inappropriate I did." After listening to Nefernis's words, Capac apologized. Looking at Capac's expression, Nefernis nodded, and at the same time, she felt a little secretly happy in her heart. Capac's attitude made her feel like a senior in the club.
"No, it's okay. Just be more careful next time. In fact, I'm a little surprised by your performance, Capac. The scholar said that you are a native of the New World. Among the common Indians here, the natives should be more... um... wild and natural... But I didn't expect that you are completely different from these Indians. Not only are your behaviors not much different from ours, but you speak Pritt more standardly than many people."
Nefernis opened her mouth to say this, and Kapak continued to answer modestly.
"My Plitt language comes from the blessing of Aka. I am a doctor in my tribe. Since I often go to the city you colonized to buy medicine, I often move around in your city. I even got a legal identity through some means. This is why I was able to come to this city by boat so smoothly."
Capac said this, and Nephnis' heart couldn't help but move slightly when she heard Capac's words.
"Aka's blessing? It turns out that Aka's blessing can not only eliminate the poison, but also allow a person to quickly master a language... Damn, I also want this kind of blessing..."
Nephnis was thinking with some envy in her heart. At this time, Capak began to speak again with a serious expression.
"Miss Thief, since you are the one sent by Mr. Bachelor to pick me up, you should also understand the purpose of my coming here. Time waits for no one. Sador and his men may take action at any time. We need to act as soon as possible to stop him. Let's set off after drinking this cup of hot tea to warm up our bodies."
With a hint of urgency, Capac said this to Nefernis, who unexpectedly spoke after hearing his words.
"Well... I know you're here to look for someone, but you just arrived, there's no need to be so anxious. You can rest for a day before looking for someone."
Nefernis said this to Capac. In her opinion, it took about ten days to travel from the New World to Capricornia by boat. It was completely possible to take a rest after arriving at the destination. However, Capac did not think so.
"Now is not the time to rest, Miss Thief. When I heard that today is the day of your new year, I felt something was wrong. Saduo came here specifically to destroy you and make your people feel pain. For him, this is definitely the best time to strike. Letting beautiful moments be wantonly and cruelly destroyed will definitely cause a lot of pain.
"So, Sadow should be lurking somewhere in this city, preparing to launch an attack.
"Sado may make his move today. What we need to do now is to find him immediately and stop him."
Capac spoke to Nefernis with a serious expression. Hearing Capac's words, Nefernis couldn't help but scratch her head.
"Are you going to do it right away? ...Time is a bit tight...It looks like I may not be able to pass through today..."
Nephnis thought so, and she had already foreseen that she might have a busy new year.
…
Nantivian, Piazza del Sol.
In the evening, a huge wooden stage was being built on the wide square. The stage was made of wood, and its main structure had been completed. At this time, there were many workers busy laying various decorations on the stage, making final preparations for the evening party.
Although the New Year's Eve party has not started yet, a large number of citizens have gathered in the Education Square at this moment. They are looking at the stage that will be completed soon with anticipation, looking forward to tonight's performance.
As very important figures will be attending the upcoming party, the royal guards have already begun to occupy high positions on the rooftops around the square to deploy defenses. Before the party even started, they had already been monitoring the entire square area in the cold wind, guarding against any suspicious signs.
At the edge of the square, in an inconspicuous corner, there was a large tent set up. On the tent was the mark of the Glowing Church and the words "Emergency Medical Department" were written.
There were several neatly arranged beds in the tent. In front of a small altar next to the tent, Vanya, dressed in a nun's uniform, was kneeling on the ground, praying attentively to the altar. Just as the cold wind blew in from outside the tent, she couldn't help but sneeze loudly.
“A-choo!”
Taking out a tissue, Sister Vanya wiped her nose and murmured.
“I didn’t expect that… Today, I was not praying in the church, but was transferred to a place like this for medical emergency…
"This is the first time that a newborn baby has not prayed in a church..."
