"Elfie, why are you here?" said Serent, who had returned with Bishop Oruffi, found Alfi in the basement. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Distraught, Info didn't notice the suspicious smile on Alfie's face.

"Huh, you're back?" Alfie wiped a handful of saliva that didn't actually exist, recovering from her infinite brain hole.

"It's getting dark, what are you thinking?" Celent was already surprised by Alfie's occasional fugue.

"It's nothing, hehe, what did that cardinal do with you?" Alfie was also very interested in the cardinal. All the questions about the cardinal in the notes were unusually expensive, which made the desperate Alfi give up the idea of getting answers directly from the notes. Enough life has been spent today, and Alfie feels like she can't make ends meet.

"We went together to the place where we fought the skeleton warriors that day. As soon as Celent recalled the scene, he felt a very uncomfortable feeling in his body, as if he was being watched by a demonic beast.

"What's wrong with you, why has your face become so ugly?" Alfie noticed that Celent's face suddenly turned pale, apparently remembering something bad.

"Nothing, you know where we found something?"

"What is it?" Alfie's curiosity was aroused, judging by Celent's face, it was certainly not a good thing, of course, judging from their safe return, it was at most a thrill.

"We've discovered the legendary 'Soul Blade'!"

"'Soul Blade'? What is that? Sounds like a weapon. Alfie asked curiously.

"It was the weapon of Franco O'Bright, Otto the Great's right-hand man, during the Great War of Nations, and it is said to be close to an artifact. Septic said solemnly.

"Franco O'Bright, the guy known as the 'Executioner in the Shadows?'" Alfie asked rhetorically in disbelief, the Founding Father's reputation was not good in his predecessor's memory.

Soon after the empire was founded, Franco single-handedly built the infamous Basra prison, which from the very beginning was a prison for political prisoners and aliens.

Basra Prison became the best place for the Empire to eradicate dissent, and Franco became a sharp blade in the hands of the Emperor to eradicate dissent. Since then, successive chiefs of the O'Bright family have also served as wardens of Basra prison.

The most incomprehensible thing about Franco is that he himself is a fanatic of the Holy See, hostile to all alien races and heretics who believe in other main gods, but the weapon he uses, the "Soul Blade", is made by the soul god Most. As a result, Franco was also caricatured by his political opponents as the greatest hypocrite of all time.

"That's right, and not only that, you've seen that 'soul blade' too. Celent affirmed Alfie's answer.

"I've seen it too, ...... it", Alfie was sure he hadn't seen any soul blades before that, so it was likely that the soul blades had been seen in that battle.

Alfie carefully recalls the battle of that day, and if there was anything in that battle that could be linked to the Soul Blade, it was the Broken Iron Sword used by the Skeleton Warrior.

"That's right, it's the weapon that the skeleton warrior uses. Silent confirmed Alfie's guess.

"How is it possible? The legendary 'Soul Blade' turned out to be a rusty broken iron sword?" Seeing Celent nod affirmatively, Alfie shouted in disbelief, "And the most exaggerated thing is that the weapon close to the artifact was actually interrupted by your 'Arrow of Light'?"

As a legendary weapon crafted by the Lord God himself, the Soul Blade is too deserved.

"That's not the point, the point is why the 'Soul Blade' appeared in the hands of a summoned skeleton warrior. "Silent's question is also something that Bishop Olufi is puzzled about.

After the "Great War of All Races", the Soul Blade disappeared from people's sight, and no one knew where the Soul Blade was stored. It is believed that the "Soul Blade" should be enshrined as a family heirloom within the O'Bright family. Who would have thought that the Soul Blade would appear in the hands of an undead thousands of miles away.

Even inexperienced chicks like Alfie and Sellant can smell the conspiracy, not to mention the old fritters, like Dylan.

"Conspiracy! It must be a conspiracy!" As an intelligence officer of the Holy See's Imperial Branch, omitting such important information meant that Dylan was seriously derelict in his duties, which made him lose his mind a little. He grabbed his hair and snarled in front of the cardinal and the Templar chief. In the hall of the church at the moment, only Cardinal Olufi, Priest Dylan, and Martina Templar met together.

"Calm down, Dylan, it's not time to hold accountable. Bishop Olufi's voice was still so erratic that it was impossible to hear his true emotions, but judging by the cold gaze under the silver mask, his mood was by no means as calm as he appeared. Whether or not the O'Brandred family colluded with the necromancer behind the loss of the "Soul Blade", it was enough to arouse the vigilance of the Holy See.

"Knight Martina, what do you think about this?" After calming the somewhat overreacted Dylan Priest, Bishop Olufi turned the question to the last person present.

"My sword always follows the guidance of your Light. Martina said scrupulously. It is the duty of the military personnel of the Holy See to do a good job of guarding the work, and if they put their beaks in this kind of high-level politics indiscriminately, they will be suspected of crossing the line, and the conspiracy will give those civilian personnel a headache.

What's more, Martina herself is in big trouble, Catherine's sudden awakening makes her worry that at some point, Catherine will suddenly start a struggle for control of her body, even if Catherine has been asleep for a long time, her strength is not enough to challenge her, but she also has to carefully control her strength, so as not to cause soul devouring because Catherine's strength is too weak compared to her.

What's more, Martina didn't know how long the secret of the symbiosis of the two spirits could be hidden from the Holy See. Once the Holy See discovers her secret, she doesn't know what the Holy See will do with her, and the most likely thing that will happen is that she will be captured and tortured by the Inquisition.

As far as she knew, the current Holy See Imperial Branch had reached the point of unscrupulous means in order to increase its strength, and many forbidden techniques within the Holy See that had been strictly forbidden since the "Great War of All Races" had begun to be secretly studied again.

The inability to get effective help from the two of them gave Cardinal Olufei a bit of a headache, and judging from the sudden appearance of the soul blade in the hands of the undead, it was almost certain that there must be something wrong with the O'Bright family, one of the pillars of the empire.

Originally, the edict given to him by Archbishop Isha was simple, to investigate the cause of two consecutive huge energy fluctuations a month ago, but unexpectedly, he was involved in a troublesome political vortex.
