"Yes, we are pursuing this matter." Catherine did not hide it and replied directly: "This matter is related to another more important incident, and is no less important than the disaster of the return of the deceased a hundred years ago. The specific situation is still in the confidential stage due to concerns that it will cause public panic. Only the senior officials of various forces understand. I think if nothing unexpected happens, you should have heard about the general content from His Majesty Farral."

"You mean someone wants..." Nicholas didn't say it explicitly, but pointed at the direction of the desert with his finger, and subconsciously lowered his voice: "I always thought that this was just the top leaders of several guilds being too sensitive. Is it true? Is anyone planning to do this? Are they crazy? Putting those things out will not do them at all."

"From our standpoint, they are indeed crazy." Catherine smiled bitterly, "But don't forget that they are essentially different from us. Even those same people like us, what they are studying is essentially different from us."

"Huh, I understand." Nicholas breathed heavily and made a solemn gesture. As for the fact that it was true, no one except him would know: "If the two were related, it was really the most important thing. No wonder the father ordered to cooperate with several major guilds to block the scene immediately. The father was the father, and he thought farther than me, and his sense of touch was much sharper than me. I was still suspicious of the sensitivity of the guild's senior management. The father began to respond. It seemed that I still had a lot to learn."

Freya opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she said nothing, she just raised the corners of her mouth and showed a subtle smile, as if she thought Nicholas' reaction was very interesting. However, although she did not say a word, she still attracted Nicholas's attention and asked Katherine: "This lady has never seen her before. May I ask her..."

"Freya, the student of Master Christo." Freya's round body was very well done. Although her body shape and clothing were very inconsistent, if you only look at her expression and movements, she would be as decent as an elegant lady. The beautiful princess introduced herself in a voice that could make people fascinate by her usual tone alone: ​​"There is another secret identity. Odin's daughter, the princess of the Sanctuary."

"So it's you." Nicholas suddenly realized that as a demigod with powerful forces, Odin's information is no stranger to every force. Everyone knows that he has a young daughter. However, the whereabouts of this princess have always been a mystery. He did not expect that Freya would reveal his identity without any concealment. Although he did not understand Freya's purpose, Nicholas still said seriously: "Please rest assured, I will never reveal this secret, except for the father."

"Nothing, I don't mind very much." Freya said indifferently: "Of course, this is not the point. The point is that I want to tell you something. Look, you have already sent out the high-level golden bodyguard, leaving only you and your teacher, which means there are no outsiders on your side. Although we, except for the eldest sister, are not from medieval aristocrats, are not as good as your foundation, and some are not human at all, even so, there are at least four out of the seven people. We know very well what you and the eldest sister just now, and we know very well what the purpose is, including your final performance just now."

"Five." Lina closed the book in her hand with a snap, with impatient and disgust on her face. She said in a tender but cold tone: "I am Isabella. I could see a group of such people every day. Basically, as soon as they spoke, I could even guess the crying they were born. It was so annoying."

"Okay, that's five. As for the other two, you can just pretend that they don't exist." Freya chuckled with her lips half-covered, "Of course, it's not ruled out that you are just pretending to be disguised and deliberately use this easy-to-be-seeking performance to hide your true side. But we don't care about these things, and we are not qualified to care about them, because they have nothing to do with us. So, what I want to say is that I don't force His Highness to put away his disguise, but try to be more direct and less irrelevant etiquette. As Mr. Moore said just now, it's getting late. We are rushing for two consecutive days. Now we don't want to waste too much time on irrelevant trivial matters. Is it OK His Highness?"

"Freya." Catherine looked at Freya's round eyes with a reproachful look and shook her head, "It's too rude to speak like this. His Highness Nicholas is not as you think. I hope you can apologize to His Highness."

"As you wish." Freya stood up and bent her knees slightly, apologizing with the lady's etiquette: "I'm really sorry, Your Highness, although I am Odin's daughter, after all, I don't have a long inheritance from the nobles, and there is still a lot of lack of etiquette. Sometimes speaking will seem rude. If anything offends you, I hope you don't take it a fuss."

"Ha, it's okay, it's okay." Nicholas said with a smile as usual: "Actually, Master Freya is right. I have emphasized irrelevant things too much and ignored everyone's fatigue. I should be the one who apologized. So, let's hurry up and talk about the serious business directly. The four major guilds have expressed their hope that we can cooperate with several people in the investigation. The Empire will naturally pay the highest attention. Therefore, I hope you can tell me directly what our empire needs to do?"

"It's not easy to say now." Catherine shook her head and said, "We need to go to the on-site inspection first, and then determine the situation. If nothing unexpected happens, we need to visit nearby villages and towns to learn more about the whereabouts of outsiders over the past period of time. What needs your assistance is to let the people cooperate with our inquiries as much as possible and give an answer as soon as possible. In addition, if it is possible that those who provide assistance to the other party with knowledge, once they are identified, the empire needs to take measures."

"This matter is not difficult in theory." Nicholas' finger habitually groped the table and said, "However, it is inevitable that local officials deliberately concealed some key information in order to cover up their mistakes. This problem must be prevented, and they must prepare in advance."

"Such an important thing." Vivian was not in a state of divine distraction. When she heard everyone's conversation, she widened her eyes and said in surprise: "As for all the intelligent creatures in the entire Yara world, there are people who dared to deliberately conceal important information in order to conceal their mistakes? Don't they know that if something really happens, it will be difficult for everyone to survive?"

"That's the matter later, and something is just possible, maybe it's possible to escape." Panis patted Vivian's head behind her back and whispered in a low voice: "But if you don't hide your information, you will definitely be punished. Not only will you lose your position, but you may even endanger your life, property and even your family. Therefore, compared to future possibilities, they are more willing to choose to avoid immediate risks and pursue immediate interests. As for future events, it's better to talk about them later. Even if there are really great risks, there are strong people in front of you."

"Ha, it's so interesting." Vivian's expression changed and finally became a sarcastic smile: "Is this the habit of human nobles? It makes people feel not only sad, but also ridiculous."

"This is not just the nobles, but many people will do this. It's just that the nobles have more eye-catching performance because they have power." Panis turned to Eva and said affirmatively to the girl with indifferent expressions: "This is one of the weaknesses of human nature. Of course, it's only a few people, and there are still many people who can overcome this weakness."

Of course Nicholas didn't know that Panis was helping Eva to understand the goal of human nature better. However, Panis didn't care too much about his inexplicable words. He just groped through the table and pondered for a while and said, "This is how I planned to return to the imperial capital after the end of this place, and then transfer from the imperial capital to the border area. But since you are here so fast, I won't go back to the imperial capital. Just go to the border area with you. If I stare at them, even if they want to hide it, I can still find the problem in time. I still have this confidence."

"By the way, you can also get closer to a few legendary pros." Panis lay in Eva's ear and explained to the girl who was not very understanding: "Although it is for the whole world, if he actively cooperates with him, Catherine and the others will feel that he owe him a favor. In addition, he follows us all the way and intentionally brings the relationship closer, everyone will inevitably tend to be inclined to the Faral Empire in the future. Of course, this may not necessarily lead to anything. With the foundation of the Faral Empire, it may not require everyone's help, but if he really encounters a situation that needs it, Catherine will probably help him in terms of his cooperation this time."

"In other words, is it equivalent to using something he originally planned to do to exchange for one help from several legendary professions?" After several months of getting along, Eva had roughly understood the status of legendary professions in the Yara Continent, so she also whispered in Panis's ear: "Actually, he didn't do anything extra, right?"

"That's right." Panis nodded, "Rina mentioned the wisdom of the nobles just now. In fact, this is the wisdom of the real nobles. Sometimes they just need to change the same thing to achieve completely different effects, in order to exchange the minimum cost for the greatest benefit."
