"Vita...what happened just now?" After leaving Duke Kane and confirming that no one nearby heard their conversation, Crowe finally couldn't restrain his doubts and asked: "You actually persuade Duke Kane Go to convince that person? And... can he really?"

"Yeah. The "Association" side does require confidentiality, but I did violate the leader's order a little earlier and revealed this to him. "Vita looked at Klo's eyes and said helplessly, "Although General Alleria is strong, the current Imperial Army cannot be his opponent... even if it's just one person." This is the conclusion reached by the "Leader" after listening to the events of the "Ring of Radiance". If he wants to, it is not impossible to upset the empire by himself. "

"The reason why he didn't do this is because he has his own position, isn't it a chaotic neutral position?" Cloo couldn't understand it—the exaggerated power that he could directly resist with "Treasure" was not a joke. If it were replaced by Clos, if there was such a powerful force, it would not have been necessary to endure for several years before finally implementing the plan to assassinate the prime minister-rather, the current situation of Closbell made Clos feel more reasonable.

"I don't know... He has been trying to hide his existence. Maybe it is because he thinks he needs a suitable time to play... I am not very clear about this. But, you should have guessed it, he is definitely not. Maybe he really followed Kane’s advice..."

"Then you still..." Crowe said, but Vita held her shoulders and forcibly sat down on the bed - at this time the two had arrived in Vita's room on the spaceship. Crowe's room is too close to Duke Kane, so it is possible to be eavesdropped or find something, so the two actually came to Weita's room.

"Listen to me...I have painstakingly about this matter." Vita said sincerely, "Although I never told you the details, you should also understand that this battle between the riding gods is for me. How important is it?"

"...Hmm. I understand. You have been mentioning this thing repeatedly since we met." Clos sighed, "Although I am very confused about this, but because you helped me find Orr Digne, and taught me how to activate and use it... and you help me contact Duke Kane, and use his resources to help me form a group of like-minded companions, which was not discovered by the minions of the Intelligence Bureau...Vita, I All understand."

"It's not that I don't want to tell you, but I think that you shouldn't be involved in these things..." There was a faint flash in Vita's eyes, "But now, it's not okay to tell you a little bit. The Battle of Mounting Gods is actually an experiment... When a battle occurs between the Mounting Gods, the subfield and magic power of the guiding force near the battle location will undergo subtle changes... If there is a strong enough nearby power as support, there is If a sufficiently powerful spiritual space is used as a convergence point, this point will be regarded as a peculiar point."

"...That's it. So you said before that you don't want my absolute victory, and the real necessary condition is fierce and unreserved battle...Is it?" Crowe seemed to understand something, "but, this matter and What does it matter to him?"

"This matter has something to do with the mission of the Witch Clan... I have always kept this secret deliberately. No one knows this except for the direct parties and your lord himself. However, he has penetrated this secret without knowing it. , And all actions are trying to point to the core of the problem. This is something I did not expect... I originally thought that my plan on the empire should be cautious and avoid contact with such a powerful person, so I took the initiative to find him , I hope he can cooperate with my plan, and I may promise relative benefits. For example, try to keep Duke Kane’s actions in the western part of the empire and not have direct contact with him."

"But he has a great relationship with His Royal Highness Olibate... His Royal Highness and he took the same position in the civil war." Crowe understood why Weita had changed her intentions-if Heliga just wanted to be alone, she would choose again after the civil war shuffle. It's natural to start with something that is beneficial to yourself-anyway, the purpose of the association in the empire can come to an end, and the following matters will have nothing to do with Vita. However, Heilija was already destined to be unable to do it in the civil war. Watching Olibat alone in the western part of the empire, in the smoke of the noble army and the regular army, he will come to support once he handles his own affairs. ——If the kind of power that can dim the goddess' miraculous power bursts out in front of the noble army, then the previous plan will naturally become empty talk.

"Yes... after all, I am not worried about whether Kane will be able to win politically after the civil war. Just like the members of the association in Krossberg, after observing the transformation of the holy son of the Kuluis family, After becoming the "Zero's Treasure", he no longer interferes in worldly affairs and chooses to stop. The association originally had no interest in the general political affairs of the country, although it did not mind coordinating with it in the plan. Therefore, I didn't feel guilty for Kane, and I believe he didn't care about me. The only thing I worry about is you...Although it is me who digs you to drive the "blue", it is difficult to guarantee whether you will recognize the route he took in the subsequent process. Since the interests of the two of you are in common, it is a matter of grievances between your grandfather and the prime minister..."

"So... you didn't plan to let me go with you before, because... worried that I was from Duke Kane?"

"Yeah. But, I think, I should tell you the truth... If you really have that kind of mind, I shouldn't make a decision for you." Vita calmly said, "For me, The only requirement for you is to complete the battle with Li En's riding **** at the end of this plan."

"...To be honest, I haven't thought about what I should do after the civil war is over." Crowe was at a loss for a long time, then said softly, "Since you put your heart to me, I won't hide it from you... Actually , I don’t like Duke Kane’s claims. I don’t think I’m an imperial person and don’t want to be involved in many events in the empire, so I don’t have a sense of identity with him trying to restore the glory of my ancestors. I just want to avenge my grandfather, Give the Iron-Blooded Prime Minister an iron fist that is enough to knock down the giant, that's enough."

"So, how about at the Military Academy before?"

"...I did say at the time that I didn't take everything in the Military Academy seriously," Klow said, "but I admit that it was a lie. But things have come to this point...I can no longer Going back again."

"..." Vita seemed to want to say something, but looking at Crowe's eyes and expression, she swallowed again. She didn't know how to persuade.

"If there is no way out, how about going to the association with me?" In this case, I can't say it for the time being.

"Duke Kane is indeed kind to me... But in return, I also planned many activities, sacrificed the lives of many soldiers on the Liberation Main Line, and played a lot of cover for him on the eve of preparations for war. The iron-blooded prime minister himself, it is me. I personally bypassed the layers of fortifications of the Intelligence Bureau, and solved this number one enemy for him." Klow continued, seemingly unaware of Wei Ta’s anomaly, "Plus, after the civil war began, I ran for him on the battlefield. Running west, working tirelessly... I think, I owe him enough of the favor."

"In this case..." Vita said in surprise, but was soon silenced by Cloo's follow-up speech.

"But, what I said before will not change...Your matter, this time I can open one eye, close one eye, and treat it as if I didn’t see it or heard it. If Kane had a good heart, he too He should be able to perceive Heliga’s hypocrisy... As for Rufas, the conspiracy and intrigue is even more unfavorable. I don’t think it’s possible for him to be ignorant.” Crowe said, “Their There is a clear conflict of interest between the empires... this kind of struggle should be among them. It has nothing to do with me, and I don’t intend to harmonize it. Besides, if Duke Kane is really not aware of it, And if he thinks that person will really become his ally, then his failure is also taken for granted." Cloo finally said-it seems that he has long wanted to solve this problem with Vita.

"That's it... that's it." Vita said softly, and a little worry in her heart fell to the ground. As for that matter, let's talk about it at the moment after the final trial.

Although the current atmosphere is good, the evil witch wants to be more cautious.

"However, I don't know if Guild Kane will let me appear on the stage. I really want to see the extent of the power that even the most precious can't overcome." Crowe laughed, "Moreover, always I feel that he and the other students are a little out of place... I don’t feel embarrassed even if I talk to him from the current position."

"Yeah... it does give people this kind of feeling. Compared with those immature children, the way he walks out is much farther away... It's just that I still don't know what he wants." Wei Ta said, "Do you know why this "trial" is so important? "

"I don't know." Crowe admitted honestly, "But, I think it shouldn't be a simple, trivial thing that can be said clearly. In other words... You said before that the struggle between the riding gods can produce enough power... …So, this plan also has his participation?"

"No...this is where I and Kane may have a disagreement. The riding **** of Scar has been deeply locked in the seal of Balfram Palace. Should I have told you about this? "

"During the previous civil war, was the demon king sealed by the great emperor... so that's it." Crowe understood something, "Could it be that the riding **** is..."

"Yes... it is an auxiliary energy source. Even if there is no starter, just standing there, it can achieve the desired effect, which is different from other riding gods." Vita nodded, "Just, I am worried that Guild Kane will break my previous agreement with him... and it seems impossible for "Fei" to return to the underground blockade after this incident. For the possibility of follow-up plans, the riding gods must be properly handled. And he has learned the secret. "

"You mean, he also has something to the riding god..." Crowe was stunned, "This...why is this?"

Klo's doubts, Vita is not without him-with Heliga's power, he doesn't need a riding **** to be his car. What is his purpose for "Fei"?

"I don’t know... It’s just that, rather than let someone like Kane abuse it, I’d rather see it in the hands of a reliable person. At least, this person will not do something for his boring ideals. Very excessive thing... His low-key and forbearance all the time before has proved that he is trustworthy in major events and common interests. If possible, working with His Highness Olibat is not a bad choice. "Vita said, "It's just that the senior members of the association don't seem to agree with me at this point... Ah, these things don't seem to be told to you..."

"It's okay, I'll treat it as if I didn't hear it." Crowe is not uninterested in the follow-up plan between the high-level associations, but it only stays at the level of instinctive curiosity. Vita has explained to him several times. The intricacies behind this, he did not mean to continue to ask, "So, does anyone in the association headquarters know about this matter?"

"Yes." Vita was silent for a moment, "Actually, this matter was not made by me alone from the beginning. "The Saint of Steel" made a decisive push on this matter. "

"It's the one..." Crowe was taken aback, "but didn't you say..."

"She is indeed the one who defeated the "Crimson Devil" with the emperor. "Vita nodded, "She knows the devil's madness firsthand. But the problem is, in this case, she still told me that if the boy has ideas about riding god, just let him do it because he has enough strength to deal with it. Once he has become the driver of the riding god, he will have more secrets to tell him. "

"Then... what about above?"

"I haven't communicated with other apostles. Including the "Leader"... However, speaking of it, the attitude of the leader towards him is very ambiguous. It's not like the respect of non-aggression, but..."

"But...?"

"It's... fear of a certain existence... this kind of feeling." Weita was silent for a long time before saying suddenly.

"Fear...?" Crowe repeated the word confusedly, grasping the deep meaning behind it.
