Holy Gabriel Empire, Medici City.
Ms. Adeline? Brooke’s mood today is surprisingly good. Today, as the nation mourns for the pope, she does not seem to care about the upcoming election of the new pope. The sunlight shone into the study, and in the golden light, the neat Masoka cards placed in front of the desk reflected the crystal luster.
And among them, a card that has just been stamped with "obsolete" is buckled on the table, and its posture is very different from other cards.
The name of the card is "Knight: Morpheus? Roland"
There is no superfluous difference between the texture of this abandoned card and the "knight" that symbolizes ordinary arms. In Miss Adeline’s mind, the card is the person, and the person is the card. From the attitude of treating the card Can see her attitude towards the characters she represents.
Sincerely speaking, at this moment, Adeline did not study and read the latest military papers on the history of the continental war and the empire as usual, but opened a set of raw material boxes that have not been used for a long time and made a new one by hand. Custom grade cards.
A new, different card.
There is no "City of Faith: Vatican" inlaid with expensive crystal nuclei, but it has a simple and dignified gray background tone. A small piece of Quelsian dragon skin became this card after being tanned The main material, one of the patterns drawn by a private artist has a profound meaning——
A man holding a black scepter and a golden back on his left arm stands above the Holy Trinity symbol, which symbolizes the heretical judgment, and looks up at the bright moon in the sky with determination.
"Dark Apostle: Morpheus Windsor".
A brand new surname appears on the card, meaning no need to say more-after the Creed organization will open all information about Morpheus directly, all the information of the son of the Duke of Byzantine is almost completely presented in Adeline In front of the lady.
So, this unique Marsoka card titled "Dark Apostle" is destined to be her private collection-and will never appear on top of the official game.
"I overturned my previous judgment," Adeline gently printed a card with a magic pattern embedded in the magic circle on the card to symbolize the dark and complex patterns, "So, now you are in crisis. How do you surprise me when you sleep in the corner?"
The last brand mark is Adeline’s personal emblem. This horrible but pure-looking noble girl moves the emblem smoothly on the edge of the card-not all cards will have this treatment. Normal card branding It is the Brooke family emblem that goes up, and what allows her to use her private emblem usually represents one thing.
The things symbolized by the card are already in Adelin’s heart.

Byzantine.
The Patriarch’s Holy Court responded as it should to the death of the rival Vatican Pope, and took the opportunity to set off a comprehensive counterattack in the sectarian battle across the continent.
It's just that when the "culprit" of the arbitration ruling, that is, Morpheus's data is presented in all the top institutions within the empire, almost everyone remained silent.
Edward III immediately sent a handwritten letter to the Duke Windsor who had already gone to the front line. The content was to stabilize the Duke’s emotions. I hope he would not affect his clear thinking about the battle.
Duke Azshara, the leader of the "Eagle Eye" organization, did not make any statement.
The six giants of the Inquisition collectively murmured, and the religious powers, including the Patriarch’s Holy Court, had intense discussions over three days, but no organization dared to take the lead in expressing itself to Morpheus Windsor, the heir to the duke. It is also the view of the teenager who slapped the face of the Holy See hard.
Finally, a secret document was confirmed and reviewed by the Patriarch and submitted to Byzantine monarch Edward III, and the emperor himself announced the decision to dispose of Morpheus--
"Treason."
"Here."
"Profanity."
The three crimes are not deducted from the name of Morpheus Windsor, and the handling opinion given by the Inquisition is very simple--
"Fire penalty".
No one thought that the result of Edward III’s final reading would be the same. It was announced that the same day, Constantinople Pansell School of Magic, Creevey, who was silently studying books, went home and questioned his father, and asked Earl Auschwitz to dismiss the emperor’s It was decided that the consequence would be the silence of Lord Earl.
On this day, Creevey did not stand in the laboratory or library, but stood in his bedroom full of books, and gently took off the Pansell School of Magic badge of honor and identity, which has never been worn in this life.
Lilith, who heard the news in the military camp, showed an unusual calm. Until the end of the day’s training, in the middle of the night when no one was there, she took a deep breath and reached out and rubbed her cheek The palm full of cocoons because of holding the sword is rough, but it is a bit more powerful than before.
"Go live."
I don’t know if this sentence is for Morpheus or for yourself.
A week later, the second echelon of medical knights set off, and Lilith was placed in the third cavalry group.
....................................................................................
The Morpheus in Feilengcui Town was silent for a long time after hearing Connor’s report, and finally only had a wry smile.
He did not expect that his "Night Watcher" had not even established a formal prototype, so he had to face the joint siege of the two imperial religious systems of the Holy Gabriel Empire and Byzantine!
"Night Watcher", the same name as the members of the heresy institution, has a special meaning for Morpheus-the queen in the night, the scepter of Savrath, and these three words The meaning behind.
The one who can guard the night will not be the black robe of the heresy, but the dark underground order.
"After all, I’m still alive. Even if the heretical verdict loses its face, it will make you unhappy for a lifetime."
Black Eye Ashkandi smiled a little, and seemed to have foreseen the distress of Morpheus.
Morpheus is a bit reluctant to talk to this lady of nobility now, her words are too smooth to distinguish true from false, this woman who looks more quiet than the red eyes Ashkandi, actually has a heart As far as the hatred of the killer is concerned, her goal is also very clear-blood, Prince William? Kleinman, this goal is no simpler than the ruling of the heresy, the only difference is that she will try to use Morpheus Achieving this goal, and knowing that Morpheus has no other choice at all.
Because William? Kleinman is bound by the servant contract, it is equivalent to his enemy.
It’s better now, the only possible reliance on you-the Byzantine empire and family-has become a restricted area. The wanted order of the Inquisition is even posted in the village on the edge of the entire empire. The meaning is very obvious. The idea is to get rid of yourself as a sinner with hatred of sacred Gabriel.
Morpheus still expressed an understanding of this.
After all, the current Byzantine has just begun the battle against Caslandi, and hastily attracted the hatred and attention of the sacred Gabriel empire. It is definitely not the result anyone wants.
Fortunately, from the news of Connor’s investigation, the so-called wanted order in the heretical ruling seems to have little effect. After all, after being flattened by Morpheus, the headquarters even killed more than three figures. This terrorist organization was badly hurt. Although a new round of heretic sanctions was issued, the thunder and rain were small. The area where Fei Lengcui did not want to come to control and the lords were too lazy to control was left unattended.
But Morpheus could not rest assured at all, all the news was sent from the "creed", which made him very disgusted and vigilant to the Japanese elf named Irindal-all he had before going to the heresy ruling The maneuver has been prepared to be monitored, but since Ashcandi escaped from the heretical ruling with himself, the creed person could not know his position for a short time.
"Your intelligence system is the first department that needs to be built. A blind man cannot fight the enemy in the sun."
Ashkandi does not forget to remind Morpheus.
"The members of the Hollier family are temporarily scouted, and there are no more suitable candidates now."
For this, Morpheus has written the plan on the plan.
"Blood family? It's appropriate to do this kind of thing, but you have to ensure their loyalty."
Morpheus didn't answer Ashcandi's question, but gently raised the scepter of Sulfuras in his hand, and the latter suddenly didn't ask questions.
"Compton, Marsoka first made a simple version from parchment paper. I need to see the current strength data of everyone."
Compton took the lead, sitting silently at the desk, picked up the quill pen, and began to write information about all the people who have been in touch these days without a pause~ IndoMTL.com~ This path is for many It doesn't work for people, but for him, it seems that it is not difficult. To be honest, I am more and more surprised that you will do something. "
Ashkandi's relaxed tone always reminds Morpheus.
"Accidents? In fact, as long as I can live on, you will never have fewer accidents."
Morpheus got up, stopped talking to the noble lady, and looked out of the castle.
The name "Pearl of Kossene" got this name because there is a clear river adjacent to the castle. This river traverses the Fording Empire, the Holy Gabriel Empire and Byzantine. The direction of the flow even converged to Hook County where Morpheus stayed in his childhood.
And the castle is just a few hundred meters beside this beautiful river. At the moment, there are more than a hundred strong men working sweating outside the city walls. The big snake entrenched on the city walls is basking in the sun. A small folded ear cat lay on the wall next to it, squinting and napping.
In their field of vision, a group of people is not digging any archaeological remains or a foundation moat, but is to flatten out the debris within half a meter below the ground and re-flatten it, making a circle around the castle. The project volume is not small, and it cannot be done for at least a week.
At the same time, in the position of the small square in the center of the castle, a group of guys who originally belonged to the Brotherhood were digging the bluestone slabs on the ground, leaving a huge diameter of ten Round earthy ground of rice.
"If you want to gain a foothold, the night watchman needs time."
Morpheus unfolded a map of the sacred Gabriel Empire left by the Hollier family, looking at the edge of the corner marked "Emerald" and sighing softly.
