With such a change, Claudia naturally did not continue to live in the castle.

That night, she returned to the steamship with a few of her cronies, and at the same time summoned all the representatives of the important forces.

Inquisitor, Knights, Servants of the Crown, Church, Third Party Spellcaster, Brenwich...... One of these people counts as one, and even the people of Entrode, or the special identity of Koya, have not been skipped!

Ostensibly, Claudia's purpose in rallying the crowd was to discuss whether or not they would help Nikos.

But in fact, her action itself speaks for itself.

If she really didn't want to help, Claudia wouldn't have summoned everyone to discuss, and now that she, as the leader of the fleet, had shown her intentions, no one would go against her at this time.

So return to the ship that night.

In just three hours from the convening to the discussion and explanation, the fleet reached a consensus on whether or not to help [Nikos].

In fact, Claudia's reason for doing so is simple.

She led the fleet to sail this time, nominally to defeat the remnants of the [Nine Rings Secret Society], but more importantly, it was to connect the sea routes. Grad is indeed powerful, but the many overseas colonies are also something it cannot give up at will.

And in this way, [Nikos]'s request can be said to be just right.

The country has a vital canal that ensures that the rulers here have a tendency to lean towards Grede, which is definitely something that Claudia values very much.

The attitude shown in the short meeting in the secret room before was just the negotiation strategy she chose.

……

So, the meeting on board ended.

People began to return to their respective ships.

In the meantime, Nicole abruptly leaves the investigator's side and trots all the way to Ronald:

"Ronald, I heard that you went with His Highness to discuss this matter?"

"Nicole?" Ronald answered, and at the same time turned to the maid and ordered, "Kostadt, you and Il go back to the cabin first, and Nicole and I will talk here, don't wait for me." ”

"Sir, I see." Kostat immediately nodded and retired.

Seeing the maid drag Il, who was shouting 'I still want to live in the castle', Ronald and Nicole left together and picked a corner on the deck to continue talking.

Ronald began by quipping:

"Nicole, you're pretty well-informed."

"Not many people know about me going with Claudia, and you found out so quickly?"

Nicole immediately stuck out her tongue, looking reluctant.

"I don't have a penchant for inquiring about such things."

"It's just that this time the people from the Springs Bureau of Investigation are also following His Highness, and many of us here in Brenwich are a little worried about being tripped upon. So I knew that I had a good relationship with you, so I came to inquire about the news. ”

Is it another factional struggle within the Bureau of Investigation......

Ronald immediately remembered what he had seen in Bronwich, and the relationship between the two cities was not very good.

It was only later that with the change of Ronald's contact and the rapid improvement of his own strength, he almost no longer had contact with these aspects, so he didn't think of this for the first time.

But now it seems...... This thing really still has a lot of impact.

After a little analysis in his heart, Ronald explained to Nicole at the same time:

"I understand the situation."

"However, Claudia did not go into the details of this matter during the private meeting, and the only people present on the side of the fleet at that time were her, me, and the priest of the Holy Throne of the Church."

This is the *om chapter. "If you're really worried about something going wrong, you'll have to figure it out for yourself."

"Is that so......" Nicole lowered her head, her tone thoughtful.

Then the investigator girl's movements were a bit exaggerated.

Confirming that she couldn't get any news from Ronald's side, Nicole immediately flipped her palm, and a wooden rune the size of Go was taken out of her waist pocket.

Brush –

Immediately, the magic fluctuations that could only be detected at an extremely close distance flashed away in this rune.

If it weren't for Ronald's observation skills, he wouldn't even be able to notice!

"Nicole, what are you doing here?"

"Prepare the news, go back and deliver the errand." Nicole grinned at Ronald, "Since you don't have an accurate answer here, then I'll do a divination, and the vague result will go back and fool around." ”

"Prophecy spells?" Ronald looked shocked.

This kind of spell with a lot of taboos and a lot of cost was cast by Ni Ke in this way?

He was in disbelief.

However, for the surprise in Ronald's tone, the investigator girl quickly shook her head:

"How could it be a prophecy spell!"

"I guess it will take a few years to practice that kind of spell at will."

Ronald tentatively pointed to the rune:

"And ...... this?"

Nicole generously explained:

"Well, this is something I figured out on my own."

"As you know, I've tried prophecy spells a few times before, so I've gained experience in this area. And from the time I was on the ice field, wasn't my ability greatly enhanced? ”

"I've developed a number of uses of my own combined new abilities and the successful recovery of the original school texts, and this vague prediction spell is one of them. It's not as good as a real prophecy spell, but it can also give people a vague point and hint, so it's a degraded version of the prophecy, right? ”

Nicole is very modest when she introduces her abilities.

Strong sacrifice read sacrifice. But standing in front of Ronald, she held her head high in her movements, looking like she was very bad.

Seeing Nicole's appearance, Ronald also smiled understandingly:

"Good, good, you're amazing."

"Of all the spellcasters I know, you're the only one who can do this kind of thing, and I'm amazing!"

"Hahaha, I knew Ronald that you knew the goods!" Hearing the compliment, Nicole did not hide her feelings, and while she was happy, she did not forget to take the initiative to invite Ronald, "By the way, Ronald, do you want me to help you with divination?" ”

"It's not a good kind of divination, but sometimes it can be useful."

Ronald nodded naturally:

"Then let's try it."

Based on strength and status, Ronald is almost certain that he is indispensable among the people who will help [Knicks].

For now, it's a good idea to have Nicole help take a look.

"Okay, I'll be fine soon."

Hearing Ronald's answer, Nicole nodded slightly, and the magic on the runes in her hand flashed again.

Then, the investigator girl raised her head and said with a slightly puzzled expression:

"Forehead ......"

Make a big system. "Ronald, it's probably going to turn out."

"The deepest part is here. 】”
