Chapter 4193: Weige's Power

~10 min read 1,897 words

Baron Brez had also heard about the Willondale matter:

"It is possible that it is to track down the lost item, but we still don't know what the capital has lost."

"The Royal Mint lost something."

Weige said, this was told to Xia De by Margaret herself, and it is currently a top-secret intelligence. And Miss Jia Lin Na has confirmed that what the Royal Mint lost has nothing to do with MI6, and Director Anluosi is also investigating what Willondale has lost.

"The Royal Mint?"

Both officials of the Grey Rock Pass Fortress were very surprised, but they didn't dare to say much about such things.

"Handle this matter according to the regular process, don't make things difficult for those Grey Glove agents, everyone is for Kassenrik."

Weige said high-sounding words:

"However, after letting them leave, focus on monitoring this group of people to see what they are going to do. Also, the people they are chasing are likely not MI6 agents. Assist the Grey Glove; I want to know who they are chasing."

The Baron said hesitantly:

"If it is Delin'aoer elements..."

In the Arcadia region, it must be correct to suspect that group of people first when such things happen.

"Then investigate seriously, just like before."

Weige said, so the two reporting the situation accepted the task together, and then wanted to invite Weige to stay for dinner.

Weige thought for a while, turned to look at Xia De who had been sitting on the sofa without speaking, and Xia De nodded gently:

"No problem."

"That's good, arrange lunch. Also, this gentleman is the fiancé I chose for myself."

She introduced, and the police chief and the Baron had of course heard the rumors in the city recently, and were not surprised by the identity of this young man with the handsome Northern face:

"Okay, then we will arrange it."

Not all areas of the Grey Rock Pass Fortress are open to the public. For example, the area near the southern entrance of the bridge is a restricted area. Except for those who want to pass through and line up for inspection, civilians cannot come here.

Only a small part of the restricted area is a military camp, while a larger area is the military command and the ancient banquet hall inherited from the Delin'aoer era to this era.

In the Delin'aoer era, the Duke of Astley would hold victory banquets for wars here, inviting military representatives and military nobles to drink together. In this era, the Astley family, who actually manages Grey Rock Pass, would entertain those who are still loyal to them here.

The Arcadia region has changed quite a bit, but only this place has never changed. As for the attitude of the Anjou family... this is actually a compromise that both sides tacitly understand.

The banquet hall can accommodate a hundred people drinking together, more imposing than the Snow Mountain Hall in Kyle-Todd Town, but only four people are using it today.

Weige seems to rarely come here to eat, because Xia De found that she would occasionally look around. However, since Xia De was by her side, Weige also ate lunch normally.

On the way back to the city in the afternoon, she also told Xia De that she didn't like that banquet hall very much:

"The glory of the past has long dissipated. Even I don't understand why there are still so many loyalists willing to follow the Astley family. I haven't done anything, but they still trust me. In addition to the two you saw today, there are actually quite a few such people in Kassenrik."

"Loyalty is always hard to say. This era is so boring, people always have to find something to believe in."

Xia De said this, and then asked Weige:

"These people who continue to follow your family, haven't they persuaded your ancestors to do something?"

Weige shook her head:

"Father passed away very early, I haven't heard him talk about these things. The elders of the family never talk about them either. Maybe they did, maybe they didn't, but in the end, isn't Kassenrik still Kassenrik?"

"Then do these people believe in you?"

Xia De asked curiously again:

"After all, you were young when your father passed away. For so many years, other elders in your family have helped maintain all this. After you took over as the head of the family, did no one doubt your ability?"

Weige laughed, and Miss Luolin, who was in the same carriage, explained on behalf of her master:

"In fact, these people are very convinced of the master and are very willing to follow the master. The master just doesn't like to manage things usually, but she is very capable. After straightening out the general situation of the family after coming of age, she took over the... mess left by the previous head of the family."

Weige's father was the one who really didn't care about things. According to Weige, the other party was a romanticist.

"And the young lady revitalized the family business. With crowns, it is enough to consolidate that loyalty."

Weige then showed an expression of "come and praise me", and Xia De praised:

"This method is really extraordinary."

"This was still when my health was not good before. If my health could have been better in the past few years, relying on the relationship with Moon Bay and the relationship with Miss Jia Lin Na, I could even use the family's influence to control the entire Arcadia City."

She said and looked out the window again. The carriage had already entered the city:

"But this is also quite good. I have no intention of having a direct conflict with the Anjou royal family. Loyalty has lasted for hundreds of years, and suspicion has also lasted for hundreds of years. His Majesty the King is ultimately not at ease with our family. That's why I feel that the appearance of that crown and that scepter is very troublesome. I have no intention of doing those things, but fate still played a joke on me."

If Xia De were Margaret's fa... if Xia De were the King of Kassenrik, Xia De would also not be at ease. After all, Weige does look too capable. But her illness was not faked. The Lion Ryan being able to be at ease was mostly because he knew that Weige Astley wouldn't live long.

Xia De even speculated whether His Majesty the King would explain some things related to the Astley family when Margaret was sent to the eastern front.

This question will be revealed next week. Margaret will not hide these things from Xia De.

Weige finally did not let Xia De get off the carriage halfway to visit friends, but returned to the Fragrant Residence with him.

Once inside, the rainy weather made one feel lazy and not want to go out, even for the Outsider. Coupled with Weige's persuasion, he ultimately did not leave this afternoon.

However, this does not mean that Xia De went to bathe again this afternoon. Weige did have this idea, but was rejected by Xia De. Taking advantage of the time in the afternoon, he, Weige, Eve, and Ajelina straightened out the current situation and made plans for next week's actions.

The challenges everyone is facing in the near future are finding Weige's sister, finding the hidden demon, and finding the ancient vampire to understand the stories of the past; the problems that need to be faced in the medium term are what will happen in the upcoming Expo, the big problems predicted by the Astrologers Association, as well as waiting for Margaret and Sylvia to arrive next week, and Xia De's search for the Big-Beaked Sparrow.

Long-term challenges are all related to the Battle of the Chosen One. The 【Son Alliance】 crippled by Adele will certainly not give up. The "Weeping Blood One" Hermons certainly cannot hide in the delivery room for a lifetime. Coupled with the traitors of the church, Weige's mother, the 【Magic Eye Club】 with unknown purposes, and the 【Truth Society】, the chaos in Arcadia City has actually not reached its climax.

Xia De does not want to just wait for things to ferment before solving problems. In addition to finding her sister with Weige, he also plans to take the initiative to find the demon next week.

Although the detection crystal given by the doctor has not detected traces of "wither" for a long time, there is an activity next week that can gather most of the local nobles, which is Margaret's welcome banquet.

Xia De intended to use this opportunity to ferret out that demon; only after resolving this matter could he continue to deal with those troublesome Ringed Shushi organizations.

"Could the demon be a candidate for the Chosen One?"

Weige thought of this question, and Xia De shook his head clearly:

"At least this time it's impossible. I have a friend who knows demons very well. He said that demons are a mixture of pure chaos and malice. They cannot create life, nor will they find a way out for this world. They are impossible to create the 'Final Son'."

Some manpower from the Five Gods Church and the three major academies have arrived locally one after another because of various things in the past period. Xia De also asked Weige this afternoon when the 【Witch Council】 could enter the field.

Although Weige wanted to be alone with Xia De, she also understood that the current situation was not something she could control alone:

"The Speaker has not given an order yet. I asked her, and the Speaker is currently considering that the church can still control the local situation. Even if Vanessa, Xiwei, and the others are called, everyone in the council has nothing much to do locally.

She wants to wait for the Old Continent Expo to be held, on the one hand, to let everyone come here for various reasons, and on the other hand, to wait and see what the Astrologers Association has predicted."

Xia De nodded. Looking at it this way, it will only take one or two weeks for other witches to come here. Today is the 15th day of the Month of Prayer for Rain. He thought of Adele in the past life promising him that she would respond to his call next month and meet him at the "Time Transfer Station".

That is a rare time when he doesn't have to consider the surrounding environment and tasks, and can let Adele rest assured, or even date him. Thinking about it this way, the future is still very much looking forward to.

Although everyone didn't go out this afternoon, a small thing happened. Around four o'clock in the afternoon, someone came through the rain to send a letter to Weige. After reading the letter, Weige immediately showed a smile:

"My old friend found a coin-type relic for me. Haven't you always been in great need of this kind of item?"

She said to Xia De, and then immediately arranged for Miss Luolin to arrange for someone to pick up the goods. And when Xia De brought Emilia, Ellie, and Dorothy, who happened to be at home, here for dinner in the evening, the witch's follower had already brought the coin. ===== CHAPTER 4194 =====
