Chapter 357: The Faceless Poet

Although it is not known, what plan the old crow wants to accomplish with "Kaphne".

But Kaphne herself has limited power and a limited hand.

Her use value is nothing more than "the only daughter of the fourth prince", "a student of Nicholas Flamel", and "a friend of Annan Rindong". And no matter which angle you pull her into the plan, what follows will be a puddle of muddy water.

As a friend of Kafni, Annan could not allow this.

Believing in herself, Kaphne left all questions about her teacher, her mother, and her spells to herself...... As long as there is a problem in one link, Annan has no problem, but she herself may not recover.

Annan could not allow it to fall into his hands.

And Annan's words lightly threw the pressure back.

If the old crow confessed to Annan, then it meant that they had to act for this and assassinate Kaphne's mother. Otherwise, it would mean that "the king is trying to turn his back on the command of Lord Silver and act alone".

And if the old crow claims not to know about it, it means that they are no longer trusted by the king. The Crows' intelligence-gathering capabilities and political status are no longer enough to meddle in the next matter.

As a result, they could not continue to ask Annan for the rest of the information on the matter, nor could they ask for Annan's help in this regard. If he had chosen to remain silent, the outcome would have been the same.

As long as he doesn't admit it, the one-eyed crow will also carry out the task of surveilling, capturing and even assassinating the princess, and then Annan has the right to refuse all his requests - this is the task assigned by Sir Silver, are you stopping me to fight against the righteous gods?

There was only one answer left for the old crow.

The old man smiled bitterly: "Why do you want to do this...... She doesn't want to go back to the royal capital for the time being, so she won't come.

"The plan to assassinate Margaret is already being arranged. The Fourth Prince, after returning to the royal capital, spoke to us, allowed us to carry out the plan, and left documents and evidence before washing away the relevant memories. ”

But this is only after the fact.

His memory must have been erased, so when he assassinated Margaret, he couldn't let the fourth prince contact and learn about it during the whole process.

Nolan continued.

"And in order to prevent the 'Dream Stealer' Denton from jumping off the wall and posing a threat to His Majesty or His Royal Highness Albert...... Danton must be lured out.

"At least lead away from His Highness Albert."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I get it. ”

Annan narrowed his eyes slightly: "You're planning to use Kaphni as bait." ”

The Ravens know everything.

What the fourth prince didn't know about himself, he knew.

I'm afraid Denton has already been exposed.

However, it cannot be removed.

Transcendents of the Golden Tier - especially the Soul Reaver.

As long as you have a conversation with him, you will be easily read and your memories will be modified. Even if he can control the contact between the transcendent and His Majesty, if he jumps off the wall in a hurry, the ghost knows that he will kill and drive several people crazy.

Even if the memories of several ministers are wiped clean - those secrets buried in their hearts are erased, the whole of Noah may be in turmoil.

A golden-tier transcendent who has entered the palace is far more dangerous than a bomb. So even though the crow had already seen everything, he did not dare to do it.

Because there's only one chance to stop him.

Once it fails...... The result is devastating.

During the conversation, Nolan had already led Annan into the basement and closed the door casually.

"Feel free to find a place to sit...... As you know, there's only one 'dream stealer'. No one knows how far he can go, the only thing that is certain is that he can't modify the memories of people he hasn't been in contact with. ”

Nolan sat on the sofa, put his hands on his knees, and said calmly: "The safety of the fourth prince, the safety of His Majesty, and the safety of the high-ranking officials of the kingdom are always more important than the safety of his daughter. ”

Hearing this, Annan sat on the couch on the side, while Eugene Geraint sat next to him.

Annan was not angry at all at this kind of indifferent words.

In Nolan's position, he did exactly what he did.

A catastrophe that can cause turmoil in the entire kingdom if it fails to be dismantled, and if a little girl with no special skills is used as bait, it can be eliminated...... Even if the little girl was the king's own granddaughter, there was nothing he could not do.

But right is right.

"In this world, you don't have to follow the most correct path for everything."

Annan smiled gently: "It's not enough to be right, I'm trying to achieve ...... Perfect. ”

His face was flat and full of confidence.

The turquoise pupils, which have no brilliance, reflect the light and give people such a bright feeling.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's you. ”

After being silent for a while, Nolan sighed: "If only a young man as good as you could be born in Noah." ”

"It's not impossible......"

At this moment, Eugene on the side suddenly spoke.

Nolan's face suddenly turned abrupt when he heard this, revealing an inquiring gaze: "That's right."

"By that point, you and Her Highness Kaphni seem to be ......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Annan was silent for a moment.

- Absolutely.

Is there still a pit here?

…… Somewhat miscalculated.

Worthy of an old crow...... It's just a layer of calculations.

He didn't believe it was Eugene's wit - if Nolan didn't allow him to speak, how could a smart man like him dare to turn the subject to such a strange place when Annan was talking to his father about business?

As long as Annan responds to the previous sentence, forcing the old crow to take sides immediately, and revealing their plan...... Nolan's words will come out sooner or later.

- Because from the standpoint of "friends", it seems that it is not enough to explain that Annan would do so much for Kaphne.

It is in their interest to use a young girl as bait to abduct the unstable bomb or the fourth prince himself; So on the other hand, it seems that it is also a good benefit to use this girl to tie the only heir of the Duchy of Winter and the subordinate god of the future old grandmother to Noah's chariot?

His Majesty the King has always dreamed of unifying the Five Kingdoms and rebuilding the Great Enchantment.

If you can marry Rinwinter, it seems that this goal can be regarded as a quarter in advance......

Winter is a "land of tradition" that is different from other countries. Even if you are a grand duke, you can only be monogamous.

…… Although Kaphne is indeed cute.

But he must not come down in front of the old crow - unlike Annan's "declaration of weakness" before, if he really admits this, it means that a huge weakness of his own is grasped in the claws of such an old crow.

Annan just replied calmly: "It's just a promise I made with her.

"You don't know about it."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Once upon a time? ”

Hearing this, the old crow was stunned for a moment.

Annan nodded seriously: "When she asks for help, I will rescue her - this is my promise as a man." ”

"That's ......"

The old crow was silent for a while, then nodded slightly: "I understand."

"Is that what happened when you and His Highness Dmitry visited?"

The old man asked curiously.

He apparently didn't know much about the content of the agreement.

- but it's normal that he doesn't know.

Because there is no such agreement at all.

This is compiled by Annan.

Annan asked rhetorically, "I'm actually curious...... I've never heard that the old raven is the cardinal of some god.

"I've answered so many of your questions, can I satisfy my curiosityβ€”I just want to know, which god would a big man like you serve?"

"It's not so hard to say. If you ask Merlin Manning's own brother, he'll tell you directly. ”

Nolan smiled softly and replied, "I am the Silent Lady's follower, the god of recording and secrecy, a believer in the 'Faceless Poet'. ”
