The Truth Of The Mysteries
Gatherings
Lucia went into her room and locked the door, after which she waited for a while. Suddenly his vision turned red, but then returned to normal slowly.
After her vision returned to normal, Lucia again saw a mysterious space shrouded by fog and divided into two parts. In front of him was a long bronze table with many bronze chairs surrounding it.
In front of him was also the figure of a burly man whom he could not clearly see what his face was like. On the other hand he also saw the figure of a man in a black suit and a silver-encrusted stick sitting on a high honor chair.
It was none other than Laville who called herself The Fake. And on the other hand, Barth Wilson bowed and greeted The Fake, “Good afternoon Mr. Fake.”
Looking at Barth who gave his greetings, Laville simply nodded in order to maintain her mysterious image and to show that she was currently the one in power in this place.
Seeing The Wisdom saluting The Fake, Lucia thought for a moment. He still didn't really understand the intent of the wisdom.
On the other hand, The Wisdom, Barth muttered inwardly, “Does The Honesty still not understand why I saluted? I think he's still shallow knowledge.”
Returning to Lucia's side, he then saluted after seeing that The Wisdom was still paying homage to The Fake. “Good afternoon Mr. forgery.”
Laville nodded again in response, she then said, “Sit down, let's start this meeting!”
After which, The Wisdom felt relieved and sighed almost invisibly.
It seems like The Honesty is a girl who has no experience in meetings like this.
It was fortunate that this was the second meeting and the master of falsehood did not respond too much. Even though he showed us his posture, that he is the ruler here.
…
Lucia was still thinking about what had really happened earlier, but with her status as a noble, Lucia was finally able to figure out the reason.
Uh... Does the wisdom mean that we should salute every time we come here? Butwhy?
On the other hand, Barth who sat in an upright position then took a look towards Laville, Laville felt a little know the intent of Barth's gaze. Laville then nodded and said, You can start.
Barth nodded, after which he waited for a few seconds and said, “Nona Honesty, what about our agreement in the previous meeting did you get the blood of Ghost Shark?” Barth asked casually but still kept his modesty in front of The Fake.
Lucia then replied, “Iya, they said they were in the hunt. It will probably take three to four days to get to the place you placed.” After hearing that, Barth then nodded and replied, “That's no problem. I'm also on a mission at sea for now.”
After that Barth then continued, “So what about the shortcomings of the formula of the herb you want?” Lucia was surprised, she then instantly calmed herself down and said, “Lack? You mean I still have to pay again for the potion?”
Barth then replied, “Of course, after all the formula of herb beyonders is not that easy to obtain, they are all strictly guarded by the church and empire.”
After that then Lucia asked, “So how much should I pay?” Hearing Lucia agreeing to give the extra payment, Barth was a bit surprised. But he was still calm, and he thought for a moment.
After a few seconds he then decided the price, “I want a thousand Pounds.”
The ten-sequence formulae beyonders potion usually cost four hundred pounds, but the spectator formula was quite rare and difficult to steal, so I guess a thousand pounds was no problem.
Barth muttered in his mind.
After that Lucia replied in such a relaxed tone, “Just a thousand Pounds? All right, then I agree.”
Hearing The Honesty's casual-sounding words, Barth was shocked. To an ordinary person, a thousand pounds was not a small amount but he said it like it was a cheap price?
Is he or his family so rich? If it's like that I should have asked for more.
On the other hand, Laville who was sitting on the seat of honor by leaning her head in her hands was also very shocked.
A Thousand Pounds? Is the price really that expensive just for one sequence 10 formula?
Laville then looked at the somewhat strange sitting position of The Wisdom.
So he lied, that's not his real price. Yet still, that girl, The Honesty took it for granted?
How rich is he? If I get that thousand pounds I can give you an apartment or even a new house for me and my two brothers.
I felt the pain of hearing a thousand Pounds being wasted away, I was even short of food with Lian's salary of only one and a half pounds. But if I think about it again…
How can Lian afford my school and Violet? The school fees were quite expensive for us.
Turning to Barth he then asked, “Then how do you want to hand over the money?” Lucia did not know about such a transaction, she then tried to dare herself to ask.
Lucia then decided to ask, “What do you think is a good way for me to make payment?”
Barth thought for a moment, after about half a minute, Barth then spoke, he then spoke to Lucia, “What if you send her to one of my disguised bank accounts, can you?”
Lucia then nodded and replied, “Yes, I can do it.”
After that, all went silent and became silent, then Lucia broke the atmosphere. Lucia then asks, “Master Wisdom, may I ask?”
Barth nodded, “Iya, what do you want to ask. What mission are you running?” After hearing that, Barth then furrowed his brows.
Wait, is that as clear as it looks? I tried to hide it as best I could.
Then Barth continued his previous words, “But it is a pity, I think your manners in doing activities such as meeting less. You're still shallow for such a thing. You still have to learn more from your parents.”
Lucia was offended by Barth's words, so Lucia apologized to The Wisdom. “I'm sorry Mr. Wisdom.” Barth replied, “That's no problem, I just reminded.”
Suddenly a knocking sound resounded within the room. Barth and Lucia were surprised, they then turned their gazes towards the seat of honor of The Fake where the voice came from.
The mysterious figure shrouded by the thick gray fog tapped on the chair with his finger as if he was thinking of something.
Just then, Laville stared at Barth casually. But for experienced Barth it could signal several things, and one of them is a warning.
After that Barth then apologized to The Honesty, “Sorry for my previous imprudence Miss Honesty .” Said Barth while slightly bowing.
Then Lucia replied, “It doesn't matter, I also apologize for my disrespect earlier.”
After that Barth replied to The Honesty's question Earlier, “I was only assigned to watch over the fog sea area at someone's request. We often accept such tasks as extra work.”
After hearing that Lucia then asked again, “Are you a pirate? Or a treasure hunter?” Barth then looked at Lucia again, “Are we not supposed to keep such a thing a secret?”
Laville then got into the conversation, “Iya, that's right, we should have kept our identities a secret, right? This is a meeting with people from different places, therefore we have to keep our identity secret.”
“Begitukah..Then I apologize for my sassness.” Lucia admitted her mistake. Uh... Why do I feel like a child here? I was like a child being educated in school. Am I that bad? This is really embarrassing as a noble. I should look better next time.
Lucia said in her mind introspecting herself.
Then Barth also replied to Laville, “Mr. Fake's right, we have to keep it a secret. But, Mr Fake, may I ask?”
Laville still maintained her mysterious figure, she looked towards Barth then nodded.
Barth then asked, “Then shouldn't we have rules in this meeting? What rules will be made?”
Laville then thought for a moment, “Alright, then how about not mentioning each other's identity unless knowing it by chance or revealed. In addition, this meeting can be used as a means of exchanging information or free exchange. How?”
Hearing The Fake's opinion, The Wisdom and Honesty nodded in agreement, “Ya I agree.” The Wisdom and The Honesty are almost at the same time.
“Alright, then it is our deal, and should not be violated.” Laville said to the two figures before her.
Afterwards Laville, as The Fake signaled to complete their exchange.
Then The Wisdom, Barth continues the previous conversation. “To be honest, besides watching the sea, I also have a mission to search for pieces from Emperor Kione's notebook.”
Emperor Kione?!
Laville was surprised for a moment, but she readjusted herself. He decided to listen a little more.
“Is it from a fan of Emperor Kione's ideas?” Ask Lucia curious. After that Barth then answered Lucia's question casually, “I don't think so, you shouldn't. There is a group of people who think that the notebook belonging to Emperor Kione can provide great strength.”
Lucia then nodded and replied, “Iya, I know. So will you still fulfill that mission?”
Barth then replied, “Why not? After all he certainly won't be able to interpret it either.” After that Lucia nodded in agreement, “Iya, it has a point. Few can interpret it.”
What does it mean that they cannot interpret it? Did Emperor Kione write using letters from the earth?
What letters did he use? Is it chinese, Japanese, or something?
Laville muttered while thinking about the shape of the notebook.
Laville then knocked on the chair again, it made the two figures in front of her stare towards her.
It was fortunate that there was a lot of mist here, and also we were all shrouded in a thick fog that made it hard to see each other's expressions.
After a few seconds the sound of a knock echoed, Laville then began to ask, “What do you mean is Emperor Kione who became the ruler of the Birtish Kingdom in the Fourth Age?”
Wisdom and Honesty were confused, and Barth decided to try asking, “Mr. Fake, do you not know about Emperor Kione? Are you from a remote area, secluded or something?”
Laville then smiled faintly, she then said , “I know a little about him. Besides I don't even know what the world is like right now.”
Barth and Lucia then become confused by Mr. Fakes. “Mr. Fake, sorry for the lightness of my previous question and that I will ask again. But... What do you mean by ‘This world is currently’?”
Laville then smiled again and replied, “Entahlah. What say?”
Of course I don't know, after all I just moved into this world a few days ago. So how would I know? Even the memory of the original owner of this body was also somewhat chaotic for unknown reasons.
Barth fell silent, he did not know what Laville was saying. While thinking, Barth then explained a little about Emperor Kione whom he knew…
