Facing Roland's thanks, Akashi Kajihua just waved her hand casually.
"Oh my god... don't be so formal. I feel uncomfortable too. I just mentioned it like that. Just listen to it and forget about it. You still have to walk your own way. No matter what I say, it's useless."
As he said this, his expression became lazy again. He stretched out his hand to scratch the scar at the corner of his eye, and his tone became serious: "Well...little Roland, let me say it again, you must forget what I just said, I am Seriously. I'm just pointing out your shortcomings, not telling you, 'It's absolutely fine if you just do this.' I don't promise you anything, but I dare say that if you fully accept my previous opinions, you will definitely It does more harm than good."
"I will make a good judgment, Your Excellency."
Roland replied seriously.
"Ah...that's good."
Seeing Roland, who had always maintained a humble attitude, Chi Kajihua inadvertently raised the corner of her mouth slightly and then suppressed it immediately. However, the smile at that moment was still accurately captured by Roland.
Suddenly, Roland's heart, which had been secretly hanging, finally relaxed.
Akakaka is known for his changeable personality. People who are not familiar with him will think that he is a difficult person to get along with. But in fact, this person is very easy to understand.
The biggest contradiction of this person is that he is obviously a very casual person, but he resents other people not following the rules.
Because for Akakaka, business is business, and you must not smile playfully when talking to him about business, otherwise, even though it doesn't show on his face, he will think that this person is unreliable.
But Roland actually doesn't like Akakaka very much. It's not because of his usual sissy attitude, or his violent aesthetics, or even because of Akakakka's somewhat pretentious character. It's because Roland is essentially the same as him. The compatibility is inconsistent.
That kind of free personality like a prodigal son is undoubtedly synonymous with irresponsibility in Roland's opinion. The violent impulse of Akagihana that she tried hard to suppress but could never suppress made Roland even more disgusted.
Compared with Akajika, Roland prefers his disciple Arthur or Marquis Saya.
In Roland's opinion, only people like them can be considered true nobles.
They themselves define the meaning of their birth into the world and the meaning of their lives. They regard it as their lifelong belief and firmly believe it. They are never confused or hesitant. No matter what situation they face in life, they go all out to realize themselves. The set goal in life is with a clear goal and a hard-working steely will.
Such people are probably extinct now. That is the spirit that only the nobles of the Golden Age had.
Roland admires this kind of will that is as strong as steel. This unwavering belief in adhering to one's own beliefs has an outstanding appeal and leadership. As for Akakajia, Roland only has a faint respect for it. It's just a matter of heart, but this does not affect Roland's acceptance of the beneficial part of his point of view.
It's really time for Roland to change his thinking——
But just when Roland was thinking about how to ask Akashika to demonstrate Bansa's killing swordsmanship, he scratched his cheek and asked hesitantly: "Um...little Roland, have you ever done it before? Did you say that Master Saya wanted to invite me over?"
Aha, you old man finally remembered... You are really angry when you wake up now.
Roland couldn't help but cursed.
"That's right," Roland said seriously, "Marquis Saya thinks that the count is suspected of being a cultist."
"...cultist?"
Immediately, Akagihua showed a surprised expression.
Even though there are not many cultists gathering in Caral, it is really incredible that someone who is an earl is still a cultist.
"The Marquis also didn't believe it, but the informant was conclusive. He also listed some evidence for the Marquis to prove that this is indeed a gathering place for the 'Twilight Followers' - "
Just when Roland said this, Roland faintly felt some extremely hidden fluctuations slowly drifting towards him from behind him.
That's the eye in the sky, the witchcraft used by astral wizards for surveillance and eavesdropping.
If Roland hadn't possessed the characteristics of a twilight contactor, he wouldn't have noticed the slightest sign with his perception attribute approaching the 30 mark. And Akashi Kajika, who was opposite Roland, didn't even feel anything strange.
Knowing that he was being eavesdropped by Edward and that all his words would reach Edward's ears, Roland still lowered his voice and read word for word: "The Marquis of Saya hopes that I can come here to find someone who can manage the matter and explain it to him.
According to the situation, we will cooperate with the Druids to arrest him."
"...Have even Druid been dispatched?"
Akakawa's expression became solemn.
Roland nodded silently: "You'd better go out with me first. Stay away from here first. I'm worried that this place may be cursed by cultists and cast some eavesdropping or surveillance magic."
"Whatever. You decide."
Akashika shrugged: "I was just casual...but I think if there was really someone, he should have left when he heard what you said."
"Probably. But that's good, at least less people will die, right?"
Roland smiled slightly: "In any case, the people of Richero are innocent. If the cultists are really scared away because of my words, at least the civilians in this city can be protected from accidental death due to fighting."
"...Although I don't hate your thoughts, but..."
Akashika sighed, swallowed the second half of her sentence, and continued after a moment of silence.
"This is a necessary evil. Salvation without sacrifice is meaningless. There is no perfect method in this world. If the cultists here successfully escape today, although people in this city will not sacrifice, people from other places will
Will die because of them."
Akashika couldn't help but sigh: "Little Luolan, you are so kind. You are so kind that you are stupid."
With just one sentence from Roland, the focus of the topic shifted from "whether the count has an affair with a cultist" and "does a cultist exist?" to "should the cultist be let go?". Akakaika may not have discovered it, or she may have discovered it.
He didn't care. Roland didn't take his opinion seriously anyway.
"Then come with me, Lord Arsu."
"Wait a moment. Please wait while I change my clothes...I just feel like the atmosphere here is not right. It's eerily quiet...This is really not a place to stay for a long time."
Yawning, Chikahua walked into her room boredly. Roland breathed a sigh of relief and waited for him to come out at the door.
Akakajika's words also reminded Roland that this place is really not a place to stay for a long time. Edward is staring at him downstairs. Roland learning swordsmanship from this place is tantamount to exposing his ability to him.
Roland has already exposed a mercury enchantment technique and an elf swordsmanship, which has satisfied Edward's speculation about Roland's progress.
Rather, being able to master the elf swordsmanship in one month is already the limit of genius. Edward didn't know the existence of the system. If Roland showed more outstanding talent, he would even be able to master it.
But in the same way, Roland cannot directly tell Akajika about Edward. Now Roland's advantage is that he is in the dark, while Edward is in the open; Roland knows Edward's details, but Edward does not know that Roland already knows his details.
After all, Akashi Kajika is just a gold-level person looking for cornerstone elements, and he has not yet officially awakened the Origin. If Edward discovers that something is wrong and wants to run away, Roland has no confidence that he can stop him.
If Edward is wary of Roland, he will definitely use a more secretive and difficult-to-find method next time he plots against Roland. The only way is to let Edward go for the time being, and then when Roland is sure to crush Edward to death in one breath
Then take decisive action and kill him directly.
This requirement is actually not very difficult, as long as Kakarit returns to Roland. (To be continued.)
