“You know in your heart that Shubick’s pollution is wandering within the Empire, and the first one affected must be your father. It’s just that you’ve been unwilling to face this fact.”
“Take a closer look at Tatis now. Division Intelligence Unit Two can take command of Division Intelligence Unit Four’s troops on the battlefield. Military Intelligence Departments Five and Six are secretly plotting to throw the Fission Wilderness into turmoil. The Undead Cult, which can be easily eradicated with the help of wizards, has never been dealt with. Such chaos is commonplace in Tatis. How long do you think Tatis can hold on traveling in this bumpy carriage?”
Noland Lee looked at Morster, who fell silent again, and asked:
“As I said before, Morster, I have no intention of getting involved in the specific affairs of a country. My parents, brother, and sister have died because of some people’s greed. That doesn’t mean I have no concerns in Tatis. What I want you to do is related to a female nurse from Division Intelligence Unit Three, named Sully. I hope that after the new wizard forces enter Tatis, you can introduce her to them, help her become a wizard, and give her a chance to see the starry sky in this world rather than spend her whole life in the gloomy, oppressive Tatis.”
Morster hesitated for a while and opened his mouth:
“In the end… it’s for a woman? Shouldn’t you ask me to help you erase the evidence of killing Kasha? Aren’t you worried about being targeted by Intelligence Department 1?”
Noland Lee confidently smiled:
“I can defeat you, so I can also defeat them.”
Noland Lee said:
“As for helping Sully, I ask you to do this because of my own psychological needs. Remember my principle? To let good people have a good end. I can’t help every good person right now, but I still want to try to help Sully. In my eyes, she is one of the few people with good intentions.”
Morster coughed lightly, his voice somewhat embarrassed:
“Ahem, well, actually, she was arranged by me, and I asked her to get in touch with you. So, if you think she has a crush on you, it’s actually because of the task requirements… you know what I mean, right?”
Noland Lee shrugged slightly:
“It doesn’t matter, Morster. Only she knows whether she’s genuinely fallen in love or not. I won’t deny the warmth she brought me during my suffering just because she pretended to care about me.”
“Okay… I’ll do as you say. When the new wizard forces arrive, I’ll guide her to become a wizard.”
On second thought, Morster’s tone becomes strange:
“To help you with this, doesn’t it mean I have to make sure the new wizard forces settle in smoothly first? That means I’ve helped you with two things in one go. If we count the Dusk Giants escaping the Empire with the help of new wizard forces, then I’ve helped you with three things. Your calculations are quite loud.”
Noland Lee didn’t feel embarrassed that Morster saw his true intentions.
Yes, he indeed used the name “Sully” to have Morster help him with three things at once.
He can confidently say that this is his wisdom.
Noland Lee responded to Morster nonchalantly:
“Helping the new wizard forces settle in is for you and your Empire, not for me. I’m living a good life outside now and don’t care about Tatis.”
Morster didn’t dwell on this issue and instead asked:
“Why are you here then? Noland Lee Jarvis? Do you still go by that name? Have you joined the Alchemists? No wonder you’re against the actions of Military Intelligence Departments Five and Six. Hey! Wait a minute!”
Morster suddenly shouted:
“Was it you who snatched the Bone-mending Wand from Military Intelligence Department Five’s hands?!”
Now it’s Noland Lee’s turn to be embarrassed:
“Ahem, well, this… it’s a normal business transaction. Besides, the Bone-mending Wand shouldn’t have appeared in Fission Wilderness. That place is under the research area of Elemental Judgement. It couldn’t be more normal for Elemental Judgement to hire me to bring the Bone-Mending Wand back.”
“Hey, you really are… sigh… Don’t you know that Military Intelligence Department One is almost going crazy!”
Morster almost jumped.
Noland Lee glanced at him and asked:
“I was wondering about the Bone-mending Wand. How did it end up in the Artificial Den of the Savage Stone Wasteland? Who brought it there? It couldn’t have been another prank by Intelligence Department Five and Six, right?”
Morster said:
“It was done by people from Intelligence Department Five. In the original plan, we would have intentionally let Greenshaw take the Bone-mending Wand into the Fission Wilderness. The Intelligence Department Five personnel ambushed in the Savage Stone Wasteland would work together with the Blackbone Hermit to kill Greenshaw and snatch the Bone-mending Wand to give to Samuelson for use. As for why the Bone-mending Wand is to be given to Samuelson to take away, that is another matter, which you somewhat know about.”
Morster’s words acquired some strangeness:
“However, due to someone in the Narrow Pass Fortress reporting Greenshaw’s whereabouts to Cavado, the Empire lost several ‘Imperial Fists’ and Greenshaw exploded and died on the cliff because he could not handle the mana of the Bone-mending Wand. As a result, the Bone-mending Wand did not successfully enter the Fission Wilderness. After I detected this incident, I urgently contacted Intelligence Department Five and asked them to pick up the magic wand… Did you know that the wand core of that magic wand was made from the finger bone of one of my own brothers, Jarvis? That man’s name is Merton, my father’s third son.”
“Ah? I didn’t know the origin of the wand core.” Noland Lee shook his head:
“All I knew was that the wand core was very strange, and it was full of extreme evil thoughts.”
Morster’s voice became low:
“The Death Herald Guild cruelly killed Merton, Jarvis. If you have ever learned about the methods of making a Death Threaded Wand, you would have understood that. The more negative emotions there are on a wand, the greater the power the wand possesses. In order to create the Bone-mending Wand, a high-level wand with the potential to become a Holy Object, the Death Herald Guild brutally killed many Empire soldiers including Merton. Intelligence Department 1 has been trying to find the wand and see if there is any chance for the souls on it to be laid to rest, or to resurrect them with the help of my mother’s power.”
“The Death Herald Guild is really brutal… ” Noland Lee asked, “What about the Wizard Advancement Association and the Wizard Enforcement Department?”
Morster said sadly:
“The relationship between Tatis and the Ulnas Circle is tense. When I was studying in Hotams, I discussed this issue with professors and mentors. After helping me investigate the situation, they told me that the Wizard Enforcement Department and the Wizard Advancement Association sent numerous application letters to my father, hoping to enter Tatis and collect evidence of the Death Herald Guild violating Ulnas Circle Law. All these application letters were rejected by my father.”
“Then there’s nothing that can be done…” Noland Lee sighed helplessly.
Morster suddenly asked:
“How is your relationship with Elemental Judgement?”
“It’s alright.”
Morster asked again:
“Can you help me pass a message? I would like to meet with someone from Elemental Judgement to discuss the matter of the Bone-mending Wand. I have made requests to meet with Elemental Judgement through my professor, but I was rejected.”
Noland Lee thought for a moment and said:
“If you can promise me that you won’t use the Bone-mending Wand to create conflicts and disputes and that you won’t let it fall into the hands of the Death Herald Guild, I’ll try to help you.”
“Alright, I promise.” Morster glanced at the alchemy ship and Shubick’s tentacles, clenched his fist and said:
“In this way, I have no proof of my words, which is not enough to make you trust me. In order to show my sincerity to you and Elemental Judgement, I can tell you some things about Samuelson. Elemental Judgement must be busy trying to capture Samuelson, right? The information I provide can play a crucial role.”
“Let’s hear it.” Noland Lee blinked and curiously looked at the Empire’s double-agent in front of him.
His own ‘Charm’ was really strong; fight a battle, then use the ‘Deconstruction-obtained panel information and memory fragments’ for a mouth-firing technique and subdue the acting commander of Division Intelligence Unit Two…
Charm-mouthed Technique, that’s amazing.
High Charm combined with Deconstruction Technique was even more amazing.
Note: The protagonist can read memories. In order to maintain the continuity of the article and avoid padding word count, I have omitted the deconstruction process. The protagonist is now ‘acting on the spot’.
