After hearing Lucille's advice, Anu finally came to his senses.
"Yes, why didn't I think of this... If it was really done by a wizard, even if we can't find evidence, we can start with the wizard himself. If there is evidence that a wizard organization has entered the territory of Kesha City in recent times, then we should keep an eye on them." Anu said excitedly.
He turned to look at Lucille at this moment.
"Yours is a very nice one." It was not until then that he noticed that although the maid was dressed in the oldest servant's attire in his mansion, he did not know her.
"Who are you?"
"New here." Lucille said.
“Who is your boss?!!”
"It's the butler."
Lucille answered very cautiously. After all, she had so many years of experience in concealing her identity, and she would never miss these small details. She had already prepared her identity when she was about to enter the Marquis's mansion to inquire about the news. She did look like a maid in this mansion, but the real one had been persuaded to leave by her long ago.
The money Sean gave to Lucille now was a fortune that many wizards could not even imagine. Apart from Princess Frelia, the financial resources Lucille could mobilize were huge enough to buy a small city, so giving the other party a little money was no problem at all.
Therefore, even if the Marquis asked someone to investigate, they would only say that he was indeed a servant in the mansion, but he rarely spoke before.
This is all thanks to Lucille's careful selection of people...
"Well, you did a great job. I'll reward you later."
Anu began to exercise his rights as a local lord, and Lucille naturally agreed...
Just then a soldier who had just returned from outside came to report that fog had formed on the sea!
The real Marquisate of Kosha City is still a long distance away from the seaside village where the ghost incident occurred. However, from all the intelligence collected before, the ghost fog has never appeared twice in the same place. Therefore, in order to prevent similar situations from happening, Seria and Anu have deployed defenses along the entire coastal area under the jurisdiction of Kosha City. It is precisely because of this daily consumption and the lack of progress in the investigation that Seria is so panicked.
"Have everyone keep a close eye on it, and as mentioned earlier, go and ask the wizards in the city for relevant information."
"Yes, Lord Marquis!"
Everyone is working according to the plan, but the final result still needs to be waited for.
Waiting for the ghost incident to occur again...
The rain continued for several days without stopping, causing the temperature in the originally hot Kexia City and the surrounding areas of Lugang to drop rapidly.
Sometimes the temperature like this sea breeze is very strange. It may be hot all the time, but once a strong cold air blows over, the surrounding area will turn into winter in a short moment, and it will be a winter with continuous heavy rain.
Day 10,
The combined forces of Seria and the nobles still couldn't find any clues. If they continued to waste time, both armies might complain. So, she decided to make a bold move: to take the army back first...
Of course, it’s not really going back, but telling people in the city that I have already gone back.
The princess of the empire still had a lot of things to do, and the weapons and supplies they brought were enough for Kesha City to continue investigating, so they went back first.
This made the residents of the city feel very uncomfortable... They hadn't even seen the princess herself yet, but they didn't expect that she would be going back after more than ten days, and she would be bringing the empire's reinforcements with her.
Just as the people were secretly blaming the princess for being irresponsible, another incident involving a ghost occurred in a village along the coast of Kosha City... and this time, Seria, Anu and others were the first to receive the news.
"What did you say?"
"Where?"
"In the coastal village of Muni, the person reporting said that a green halo was spotted appearing and disappearing in the sea!" said the soldier who came to report.
Now, in the eyes of the people, Seria is about to return to the north, but the real situation is that she and several noble children were sent to a small town near the coast by Marquis Annu's carriage.
Because according to the investigation of the wizards, there really was a wizard who entered the local wizard organization recently, so Seria deliberately used this method to lure the other party into taking action, and now... the news of her departure had just spread for two days, and the second ghost incident really happened.
"It seems that our guess is true!" Seria looked at all the nobles and Marquis Annu in front of her.
"Yeah. They finally couldn't help it."
At this time, everyone also felt a sense of comfort that after so many days of hard work, the results were finally achieved.
"Bring everyone with us..."
Since it was the wizard who said so, Seria was no longer afraid. She planned to take all the high-level troops around her with her.
"Your Highness, are you going there in person?"
"What's wrong with me going there in person? My elder brother dared to go to the battlefield, so why shouldn't I even dare to command on the front line?" Ever since there was the story of Prince Sean personally going to the battlefield, it would not be surprising even if the royal family went to the front line again.
On the contrary, it will boost morale!
The opportunity must not be missed. All the nobles knew that this was a great opportunity for Seria to gain praise, so they stopped trying to dissuade her and took all the soldiers with them.
And just when Seria and the others were leaving the camp...Lucille on the other side of the camp was finally able to move!
