"Although there were some problems with this operation, we didn't let Bajian and his men achieve their goal. Thanks to your strange abilities, I was able to successfully guard Ampel's relics. To be honest, compared to the Night Demon, your strange and powerful ability and your so-called Akasha God are what really shocked me today. By the way, your god..."
"Shh..."
Just when Misha was about to continue saying something, Ed suddenly put his finger to his lips and made a gesture of silence. After seeing Ed's action, Misha closed her mouth with a little confusion, and then Ed continued to speak with a slightly mysterious tone.
"At any time, do not talk about gods..."
"...I know. Sorry..." Looking at the mysterious and serious expression of the man in front of her, Misha seemed to have realized something. She seemed to realize that she had mentioned some taboos of the other party's society. She swallowed and said. Ed nodded, then took out an item from his clothes. It was the Ampel relic that Misha had taken back from the Night Devil, an ancient pendant.
The chain and pendant of this pendant are both made of silver. The pendant as a whole is in the shape of a shield. On the front of the shield, there is a four-part shield emblem, and a knight is drawn in each of the four divisions. Dorothy knows that this is the symbol used by Pritt's Zungu faction during the Wind King Rebellion. The four knights are the servants of the Goddess of Mirror Moon, namely the Four Knights of Wind, Dream, Blood and Spirit.
"Although we didn't let the Night Demons take away Ampel's relics, this probably won't have a big impact on the Eight Points. They may have achieved their goal."
Looking at the old pendant in his hand, Ed spoke slowly. Listening to Ed's words, Misha was stunned, then frowned and spoke in confusion.
"We have achieved our goal? How could that be? Have we already taken the relic back?"
Listening to Misha's words, Ed began to play with the pendant in his hand, carefully examining the silver ornament at the end of the pendant, and spoke while playing with it.
"I have checked it. This relic is just an ordinary pendant. It is not an extraordinary item. There is no spiritual trace on it. The significance of this relic is not the relic itself, but the information on it."
As he spoke, Ed turned over the silver ornament in his hand and showed the edge of the back to Misha. There was a circle of small letters engraved along the edge of the shield-shaped silver ornament. Misha frowned and said after looking at it.
"These are...Gurpurite characters? Is this the secret of the relic in Ampel's collection? Not the relic itself, but the message left on it?"
"Yes... So, if Night Demon has already read this information and has memorized it, then the most important meaning of this relic to him has already been obtained. He only needs to bring the written text back to the Eight Points, and then their main purpose will be achieved... Judging from the fact that Night Demon resolutely abandoned this relic in exchange for the opportunity to get rid of you, he has probably memorized the information above, and this relic is not very important to him."
Spreading his hands, Ed said with a hint of helplessness in his tone. Listening to Ed's words, Misha couldn't help but clenched her fist and smashed it on the car door beside her, saying with a hint of anger.
"Damn it...I thought I could get ahead of them this time."
Seeing Misha like this, Ed took back the pendant in his hand, and then continued to speak slowly.
"After I return, I will immediately ask Duke Barrett's partner to decipher the text on it. Now let's just hope that our progress in catching up with Ampel's secret will not be much behind that of the Eight Points."
Listening to Ed's words, Misha could only take a deep breath to calm herself down, then leaned back on the carriage and closed her eyes to rest. Looking at Misha like this, Ed was silent for a few seconds, then continued to speak.
"But then again, is it necessary for you to do this in order to fight against Yasui, Ms. Misha?"
"What is this step?" Misha opened her eyes slightly and asked back after hearing Ed's words. Then Ed continued to speak.
"You didn't hesitate to separate from your family, hide the truth from your superiors, leave the organization, and wander alone... Is there any deep hatred between you and Bajian that requires such a relentless confrontation? Can't you just let things take their course and not be a thorn in Bajian's eyes? Can't you just turn a blind eye to their conspiracy in the Security Bureau and even in Tivian? Anyway, with Bajian's influence on the Security Bureau, if something really goes wrong in the end, it can't be your fault. This is not something that people of your level can control. Aren't you afraid that you will get yourself into trouble in the end?"
Ed said to Misha slowly and solemnly. His meaning was very simple. Now, in the entire Security Bureau, even in the entire Pritt Kingdom, Misha was the only one who was silently against the Eight Points. This was far beyond the scope of his duties and he could die at any time. Under the pervasive infiltration and huge conspiracy of the Eight Points, even if Misha was completely rotten, no one would blame her if something went wrong. Beings with higher positions than her could not fulfill their duties under the infiltration of the Eight Points. What could she, a little Cretaceous Knight, do? As long as Misha followed her own way, no one would blame her no matter what the outcome was.
Listening to Ed's words, Misha, who was lying on the seat, sneered, and then answered as a matter of course.
"I am a royal knight. I have sworn long ago that I will do my best to defend Despenser and Pritt. Whenever a villain plots against the country, I will not sit idly by.
"'Plitt is above all else, and our loyalty will be the foundation of this lofty ideal.' This is the family motto of the Devonshire family, and it was also set by the ancestor Ampel. I grew up listening to this sentence, and I will never forget it..."
Misha said this, and then she closed her eyes again. Dorothy looked at the knight in front of her through Ed's gaze, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
"Loyalty to the country? But... your ancestor Ampel was the biggest traitor among the ancient sect that followed the Plit tradition during the rebellion of the Wind King..."
After thinking this in her mind, Dorothy no longer talked too much with Misha. She controlled Ed to cross his legs in the car, then took out a newspaper and began to read. When the newspaper was unfolded, the first thing that caught her eye was a large black and white photo with a bust of a smiling young nun and a striking headline next to the photo.
"Sister Vanya Chafillon, the famous relic inspector, finally arrived at her hometown of Tivian after touring the relic in many places. At the East City Port, Sister Vanya received a grand welcome..."
