When he escaped from the noble lady, he was slightly relieved. After all, Kevin only had verbal combat ability on that topic and was not really experienced.
Although the "Qiyao Church" does not have teaching materials such as "Actor's Self-cultivation", the Star Cup Knights, as a subordinate of the Canonization Province, received the training required for infiltration during their trainee period. Those who can become slave knights
Basically, people have passed the assessment in this aspect.
"The atmosphere of the banquet is in full swing... It's time. According to the information Liz investigated in advance, his exclusive room is on the top floor at the other end of the deck... Okay, let's start taking action."
With no intention of talking to the other guests who were enjoying the banquet, he pretended to be casual and exited the main banquet hall. After avoiding the sight of Conlet and the people in black, Kevin walked to the door.
"Um?"
Kevin felt as if someone was watching him, but when he turned around, he found nothing.
"It's strange. I feel like I'm being watched. Am I too suspicious... Forget it, it doesn't matter. Let's start taking action. The target is the exclusive room on the top floor at the end of the deck."
As soon as Kevin left the red carpet, the man in black who was acting as security guard at the door came up.
"...This guest, do you have an invitation letter? Or are you here with a distinguished guest who holds an invitation letter?"
"Well, that's what you're talking about."
Kevin showed the invitation letter to the black-clad security guard. The invitation letter was of course genuine, but Kevin was not the gentleman invited on the invitation letter. In addition, with the invitation letter, you could bring one person with you.
Liz, who had just become a knight and been assigned to him for less than two months, also strongly requested to accompany him. However, he did not want Liz to intervene in such a serious combat mission, so he gave her a strong order as a commander.
Stand by on "Merkaba Unit 5".
After looking at the invitation letter, the black-clad sunglasses handed the invitation letter back to Kevin.
"We must check the invitations of guests at the venue. This is necessary to ensure safety. Please understand our rudeness."
"Haha, don't worry about it."
Seeing that the man in black was not suspicious, Kevin went directly along the corridor and asked the maid to confirm his route.
"Guest, are you going for a walk? Just go upstairs from the front stairs and you can walk onto the deck. Facing the evening breeze and looking at the stars is a good way to relax."
"Thank you."
Then, when I walked near the stairs, I heard the conversation between a man and a woman.
"Hey, hey, what should I do? I picked up the invitation to the costume party..."
"Stupid, stupid, that's something only those rich people in the first class can get. Of course we can't take it!"
"But, but..."
After walking past them and noticing the mask on Kevin's face, the two of them immediately bowed respectfully. Although I really wanted to tell them, "You've made a mistake, I'm not that kind of big shot," they were in action at least now.
The disguised identity could not be passed on to everyone, so he nodded slightly and walked past them expressionlessly.
After walking up the spiral staircase, Kevin noticed a person who he was a little confused about looking out the window. Or rather, it seemed like he was looking out the window.
"Hmm...? This man can't see?"
I didn't plan to ignore him at first, but unexpectedly the other party took the initiative to speak.
"Because my eyes can't see, I can 'see' more things. I am Marusel Nielsen and I am a freelance journalist."
The blind man with chestnut hair talked to Kevin like this. Although he couldn't see, his walking was not unsteady at all.
"What do you want from me?"
"Judging from your accent, you are not from the Erebonia Empire. It just so happens that I am not either."
"Sorry, I have something else to do, so I can't chat with you here."
"Then I will keep the story short. Regarding what is happening in the empire, it is better for the Codex State at the Qiyao Church headquarters to wait and see before intervening. Can you tell your boss for me?"
"You..." The alert was raised to the highest level in an instant. How did this blind man know that he was from the church? Kevin himself was obviously born on the border of the mainland, and he didn't even have the accent of the Codex country...
"Don't worry, I'm not your enemy, and I don't intend to tell those men in black your identity. Just continue to do what you plan to do, and I won't interfere."
After finishing speaking, the blind man continued to turn his head towards the window, obviously his eyes could not see, but he pretended to be staring into the distance.
I can't figure out who he is, but now is not the time to worry about such things. Although I know that this person cannot be trusted, I still prioritize the execution of the task and have no time to get to the bottom of it.
From the outer corridor of the deck to the front of the target room, two men in black blocked the way.
They immediately took a step forward when Kevin approached.
"This guest, please stay. Beyond here is Boss Conlet's exclusive room." "Please leave."
"Well, you've worked hard." After a perfunctory reply, Kevin moved his right hand under his tuxedo.
"However, your luck is really bad."
When they took out the star cup emblem, the two men in black were shocked, but it was too late to react. The chanting of the sacred words in a low voice had been completed before Kevin walked up and approached,
Under the influence of the church's "suggestion" magic, the two men in black were weak as soon as they took out their weapons, and then fell to the ground unconscious.
"If these 'chasers' are only at this level, this mission will look much easier."
Entering the luxurious-looking room, Kevin quickly opened the mechanism. After opening the mechanisms on the flower pots, stalls and other parts in a specific order, a large cabinet in the room began to move slowly, revealing the alloy door at the back.
"Haha, this is the so-called cliché. Since nothing has been expected so far, the password for this door should be..."
Kevin quickly entered the word "O·R·P·H·E·U·S" that he had received from Vaggie not long ago on the keyboard with words hidden under the painting on the wall next to him.
As the alloy door opened smoothly, Kevin also breathed a sigh of relief. The intelligence work of his subordinates has gone smoothly so far.
In a room that looked like a treasure room, Kevin immediately saw "the one" on the small table in the center.
When he looked closer, he began to be confused.
"This ancient relic... is not the Fool's Pendant. No, is this really an ancient relic?"
The shape full of geometric beauty, coupled with the spiritual power that does not belong to the current era, it is not surprising that the first impression is that it is an ancient relic. But Kevin, who frequently deals with ancient relics, immediately discovered something suspicious. That is... it
It's so new, it looks like it was just made by someone.
"This shape is very similar to the "Gospel" used in the Libel incident, but now that the "Ring of Glory" no longer exists, the "Gospel" has long been unable to work. So what exactly is this thing...
"
When Kevin was wondering whether to take this thing away, the ball on it suddenly emitted a blue-black light.
Before he could dodge, Kevin was enveloped by the light. Just when he thought something would happen, the black light suddenly disappeared. But nothing happened in front of him. He was still in the treasure room. The only difference was that he just saw
The device disappeared.
The equally bad thing is that after noticing that something has disappeared, the piercing alarm sounds. And the entrance that opened automatically just now is also closed, locking Kevin up.
"Tch, did you miss it? But what was that thing just now..."
It has nothing to do with it. He planned to shelve this issue before obtaining more information. Now he could sense that the security guards of the men in black were gathering here. Kevin did not intend to delay any more, and immediately picked up the crossbow and pushed
Use three consecutive shots on the door of the room that cannot be opened.
With a loud rumbling sound, the alloy iron door was twisted into a very strange angle and flew out directly. In front of him, there were more than 20 people in black who had gathered.
"This situation is a little bit complicated." Although he said so, Kevin did not panic at all. Sometimes the gap in strength cannot be made up by the number of people. After all, he is one of the few annihilation experts in the church.
ah.

PS1: Let’s move on to Onion’s perspective and the story of the Star Layer. Yes, as a conscientious author, I want to play with Onion, so the protagonist of the main text will start to disappear for a period of time. Although I have considered whether to open a new volume, I still think about it.
It happened at the same time, so we still can't open it. In addition, the difference between "Gaiden" and "Chapter" in this article is that all the previous chapters were based on the situation that Ling would not appear or only occupy a small role. But Gaiden
It won't be like this in this movie, there will be plots involving the protagonist of the main story.
PS2: When writing the side story, I might fill in the eight-month pitfalls of the first volume that I haven’t finished yet.
PS3: The Christmas infinite pool has started, so the latest update will definitely be affected to a certain extent, and the quality is probably not good.
