'The others from Addis... Sister Evi, what do you feel... what do you misunderstand?' Looking at the scene outside the window, Vanya thought to herself, but as she thought about it, she breathed a sigh of relief and continued to speak.
"Phew... Let's not worry about anything else. The Kankedal incident has finally come to an end. I thought I had returned successfully, but I didn't expect to encounter something like this. Fortunately, thanks to Miss Dorothy and Miss Evi, everything was fine..."
Vanya thought like this in her heart. This kind of thing about Kankedal was also unexpected for Vanya. After experiencing the incident of Adus and being besieged by heretics, she originally thought that she would be much safer in the sphere of influence of the Holy Church. However, she did not expect that there were people here who wanted to harm her. Among these people, there were not only people who believed in the Holy Church of Light, but also people who served as priests in the Holy Church like her and were her colleagues.
'As a fellow believer of the Holy Church, the Kankedar government, which represents a large country on the continent, wants to harm me for the sake of profit. As a fellow clergyman of the Holy Church, I am responsible for the task of investigating the church. The judge, who should be fair, also wants to harm me for the sake of power... The Holy Church is too big, and its entirety is far from being as sacred as I thought before. Not everyone can fully follow the teachings of the Three Saints, even the high-level officials of Shenglin Mountain...
"Only Aka... can always guide the followers and uphold integrity and righteousness..."
Coming to the window, looking at the blue sky outside, Vanya sighed in her heart and said so.
…
On the other side, in another hotel in the foreign gathering area of Kankedal, Dorothy, who was sipping afternoon tea on the balcony, was recalling what had just happened in Vanya's room, and then thinking about it with interest.
"That Evi... left a way of communication when she left. Do they want to establish a private contact with Shadi? But if we want to contact Shadi, there are more ways after he declares his conversion. So she saw that I might not be Shadi's subordinate and wanted to establish a communication channel with me? This perception is quite sharp..."
Dorothy thought so. Although she was wary of Evie's action of leaving contact information, she was not overly worried. Judging from the other party's attitude, they should not have much ill will.
Although she had no ill intentions, Dorothy would not choose to contact the other party before finding out the specific power of the church supporting Vanya. After all, safety was the most important thing, and Dorothy had no urgent business to contact them at the moment.
"According to Evi, they seem to be planning to assign a new position to Vanya and have her wait in Kankedar. I don't know what kind of job Vanya will be assigned to next."
Muttering, Dorothy took another sip of tea, then looked at the newspaper on the table beside her. It contained the two latest major news in Kankedal today.
"After preliminary investigation, the mission to Adust has no connection with heresy."
"Mayor Robert is suspected of accepting bribes from the exiled royal family of Baruch for a long time and seeking illegal benefits for them. He has now been dismissed from his post and returned to Farajo to be investigated."
Dorothy looked at the two pieces of news in front of her that caused a sensation in the entire Kankedal today and were discussed by countless people. After flipping through a number of hindsight articles, she put the newspaper aside, opened the magic box, took out her "Wenhai Hangzhi", turned to the side that was related to Beverly, and after thinking for a while, she picked up her pen and started writing.
"Hello, are you there? I want to ask a question. If I want to rent your blessed item, can I directly use my assets as collateral instead of cash?"
Dorothy finished writing and waited for a while. A few seconds later, the neat handwriting was printed on the paper.
"Huh? Asset mortgage... This is a bit troublesome for us, with both price assessment and risk assessment. It would be more practical for you to use cash. If you want to mortgage assets, you will have to pay an extra sum of money to cover our assessment fee..."
"Hey... we're all friends, we're old customers, so we shouldn't be so formal..."
Seeing Beverly's response on the page, Dorothy immediately picked up the pen and wrote a quick response. Finally, after some bargaining, Beverly agreed that part of Dorothy's deposit could be directly mortgaged with assets, but part of the rent must be paid in cash. Beverly also agreed to help Dorothy inventory and evaluate all of Mazar's assets and confirm the specific price at a low friendly price of three hundred pounds.
Originally, Dorothy thought the appraisal price of 300 pounds was a bit high, but something Beverly said during the bargaining process made Dorothy change her mind.
"You think it's too much... This three hundred pounds is already the lowest appraisal price. I can't give you any cheaper. You should know that the inheritance of the Mazar prince is controversial, and there are several groups of people fighting for it. If I hadn't designed and prepared a complete set of impeccable will procedures for you, this inheritance would not have been in your hands. Even if your will is perfect, it will not be awarded to you easily at the first time based on the competition among so many parties. I gave you the green light in the review process. You don't even thank me for telling me the price of a few hundred pounds. This is too stingy."
Beverly responded to Dorothy like this. Dorothy was slightly stunned by Beverly's response, and then continued to write.
"There are so many people fighting for it... Do you mean that other members of the Baruch royal family are also applying for inheritance at the Artisans' Guild?"
"Of course. According to the reaction of the Kankedar stronghold, the dispute over the inheritance has never stopped since Mazar's death. A bunch of Mazar's relatives claimed that they had the right to inherit and came to our place to make trouble. Before you, the one with the greatest possibility of succession was not only closely related to Mazar, but also endorsed by the Kankedar government, saying that Mazar had made an oral will to give all the inheritance to him before he died during treatment. This endorsement was open to all contenders for the inheritance, so many people were directly dissuaded at that time.
"Of course, you know what happened later. Robert was ruined, and his government lost all its reputation because of this. The remaining relatives started to make trouble again, but you have already produced an impeccable will, so they can't make trouble anymore."
Beverly explained this to Dorothy. Listening to Beverly's explanation, Dorothy suddenly thought of some other things.
'The heir endorsed by Robert's Kankedar government... It is said that there is Mazar's last will and testament, so this heir must be Maad! This means that Maad and Robert want to obtain Mazar's inheritance, and they are willing to do so... Robert is even willing to endorse Maad in the name of the Kankedar government...
'Does Mazar's inheritance have such a big appeal to Maad and Robert? Their wealth is definitely not less than Mazar's...Will Robert help Maad for some worldly wealth?'
Dorothy thought to herself that it was normal for Maad to seek Mazar's property, but it was intriguing that Robert went to Maad to fight for the inheritance and even used Kankdar to perjure the will in the name of the government. In Dorothy's opinion, this might mean that in Mazar's inheritance, there was something that both of them valued very much.
At this time, Dorothy remembered what Sadroya said. She once said that the reason why they and Yakalu, two members of the Underworld Coffin, were willing to help Robert and Maad was because they promised to give the Underworld Coffin an important thing as a reward, and this thing would take some time to be in the hands of Robert and Maad... So, could this thing be in Mazar's inheritance?
Among all the inheritances of Mazar, the only thing that could be valued so much by the underworld coffin was the national treasure box! In the treasure box was Baruch's "Book of Royal Sacrifices", which recorded the method of opening the tomb of King Rahman, and in that royal tomb.
The tomb of an extraordinary king who has reached the highest level of enlightenment, the things inside should be of a level that could interest the Nether Coffin Society. The Nether Lamp can be confirmed to be a divine object of "Silence".
"It seems that I am not the only one who wants to attack the Rahman Mausoleum now..."
Looking at the contents on the page in front of her, Dorothy couldn't help but frown slightly. Now that she knew there was a competitor, her tomb-robbing plan could not be carried out slowly.
"Plans cannot keep up with changes. I can't wait any longer. I must set off to the Rahman Mausoleum immediately to at least confirm whether the person in the coffin has taken control of the place!"
