"Kitarian! Murum!" Ruth was wandering in front of the door. When she saw her, she immediately ran over like a "bald man" who found a ball. You fool scared me. Hitarian thought while hugging his sister. Ruth's condition has eased a little these days, and she can pronounce Murum's name clearly. Lady Liana says her strength is growing and she hopes Ruth's strength will continue to grow until she can return to normal.
Or my power. Hitarian touched his sister's head and asked her to be quiet. Murum and Ms. Liana followed behind. The former was holding her knees and panting, while the latter was calm and relaxed, with no wrinkles in her scarf.
"Sooner than I thought," Ms. Liana said, "but almost too late. Ms. Hitarian, how do you feel?"
I can do anything. She wanted to say that, but she knew it was a silly thing that only Ruth could say. "The magic flows through me, as softly as the mist of blood, but I think I can move them."
"You are very talented. Not everyone can feel the magic in their body as soon as they light the fire. It is more about describing the difference in the air. The order and mystery of Knox are everywhere, but most of our power comes from ourselves. You Your career has great potential. I don’t know when you came into contact with related things, maybe it was that book..."
"It should be it, but I won't be grateful." Ms. Liana was referring to the "Confessions", a mysterious book that changed her fate. Ignition of the Fire and inauguration are two different things, but that is something that was learned only after the Hitarian accomplished them simultaneously. Now she even has a mystical profession that grants her magic the ability to heal mental wounds. As long as she was willing to help in the hospital, she no longer had to learn to weave and dye fabrics.
"Or you can become a night watchman, Hitarian. I heard that they are looking for medical staff to join." Murum suddenly suggested. He has always longed to join the city guard, or even be a leader.
Ms. Liana also looked at her: "Your talent will allow it."
Hitarian was startled by this ridiculous idea. Will anyone be willing to face villains and enemies? She never wanted to get close to blood and disease. "No, I don't really need the mysterious talent." God bless, one Ruth is enough.
"Well, if you don't need it, you don't need it." Ms. Liana showed no objection or regret at all. It seemed that Byrne really had no intention of using them as helpers.
Maybe it will be in other aspects, such as detection and recording. However, these transactions are natural. If Shitarian wants to live, she has to trade them with both hands. Originally, she could not even ask for such a transaction! But now she is a mysterious creature. Even if she leaves Byrne, she can survive with Ruth concealing the demonic power. At least she can steal mortal wallets more safely. Of course, they have to get rid of the church's wanted status first, then they have to change their appearance...
Don't think about it, she said to herself, I won't leave Byrne again. Besides, she had other things to care about right now. "Is the city lord coming back?"
"There is something you can know." Ms. Liana led them into the gate of the detection station. "Byrne's acting city lord is sometimes one of the lords of the starless night. In fact, Byrne is not the only nameless person. home.”
The iron clasp closed behind Hitarian. She turned around, and Murum waved to her, stepped back, and suddenly disappeared. A strange feeling spread across her skin, arousing goosebumps on her skin. "Am I in a mysterious place?"
"You're always here," Ms. Liana pointed out with a smile.
"Oh." She almost forgot that Bain was a mysterious place. "How many Byrnes are there in the world?"
"Starless Night has three large secret realms and countless small gathering points." Ms. Liana replied, "But we only have one Byrne. This is also the headquarters of Starless Night. The real city owner is the leader of the association. He is His Majesty the King of the Unknown."
My King, Hitarian thought. Although she knew that the ruler of Eastman was Queen Flavia when she was in Four-leaf City, it was obvious that most of the Four-leaf leaders who lived in the south like her regarded Duke Tracy as a king, not just a king. lord. Neither Tracy nor Queen Flavia could possibly like demons, but I had a new king.
The Byrne Detection Station is a short and inconspicuous building, with white walls both inside and outside. The space inside is as simple as the exterior, with the main entrance facing a spiral staircase that leads to a rooftop stargazing loft. But the real studio is on the first floor, which is only for some astrologers who love the stars to kill time - they are all retired association members, but there are also astrologers among them. Hitarian heard that there was a high tower called Croy built by astrologers in Knox, which served as a detection station for the entire Knox. It's a pity that they won't spread the astrologers they train to every country, let alone the starless night. Could there be a nameless one in Chloé?
Ruth pushed open the studio door before Ms. Liana. She knows this place well. Hitarian is very happy that his sister can have a new world. The layout of the detection station was unlike anything she had ever seen before, with chairs arranged in rows and shiny floors covering every corner. There were no candles or electric lights in the room, but it was still very bright. Diagonally ahead, where you don't need to look up, there is a huge fireplace, with silver-white flames burning brightly. It took up an entire wall, but Shitarian felt no heat coming toward him, nor could he see any wood or ashes inside. She sniffed and smelled the aroma of honey. "Are we going to greet the other lords of the Society?"
"The detection station just needs to make some preparations. You are not the etiquette lady, there are other people to handle the reception." Liana shook her head, "Originally, there was no need for such a big battle to welcome people home, but Yolizab The Steward wishes to give his lord a surprise."
"I do not understand."
"It's best not to understand. There are seven great lords in the Order... so there are seven different loyalties. Fortunately, no matter what, we all have the same blood flowing through our bodies. Hitarian, we are loyal to His Majesty because we are His blood relatives, can you understand this?"
"Yes." When he met Witek Shazo, he told her that he was their relative, and that all the Nameless Ones were brothers and sisters and a family. But just like her and Ruth's parents, relatives don't always love and care for each other. If I had other sisters, Kitarian thought, maybe I wouldn't love Ruth so much. When she was a child, she hated her sister for being ugly. "I also treat you as a relative, Ms. Liana." And the northerner Witke who sent them to Byrne. If only they were her parents.
"It's my pleasure, my dear." Ms. Liana immediately replied in a soft tone.
More people walked into the house, and the flames in the fireplace suddenly jumped out. "Just keep quiet from now on." Ms. Liana instructed. "You will see them through magic on the mysterious object at the detection station, and then find the flame corresponding to each person in the database. When the lights are completely dimmed, the astrologer We’re about to start recording.”
"Record?"
"Yes, you must record every word of everyone. This is how the history of Starless Night is passed on. Observing history is a rare experience."
So silence was needed, Hitarian understood. But she doubted Ruth could do it. "My sister, she...?"
"I will put magic on her so that only you can hear her voice." Ms. Liana had no intention of letting Ruth leave. She explained: "The power of luck will play a positive role to prevent anyone from remembering it incorrectly. There was a similar error at the detection station, which caused us to lose a small part of the past." She took off her scarf and adjusted her collar. "It's about to start, look."
Hitarian held on to his sister, waiting for the "history" that was about to appear.
The flames in the fireplace distorted the air, and the subtle whispers that were still in the room disappeared at this moment. The light began to change and ripple, like a gurgling stream flowing over the skin. Hitarian still felt no heat. Suddenly, she heard low singing, and the sound was like a ray of light getting stronger and stronger.
"Fire," said Ruth, "put out."
She's not right. The fire was still burning, but it had become lighter in color, the walls and hearth had disappeared, and the singing was still ringing in my ears. Hitarian saw the grandest welcome ceremony he had ever seen in his life. It couldn't even compete with the Spark Ceremony in Yotsuba City... Actually, it was far from it. She also saw the guests. In fact, according to Ms. Liana, the guests were also returning wanderers.
The masked woman wears a long skirt and leans on a strange, half-moon-shaped narrow table. Hitarian never dreamed that there would be a woman among the lords. She couldn't see the other person's face, but she guessed that she would be more beautiful than Ruth. But obviously the status of the Masked Lady has nothing to do with her beauty. She is a Nameless Lord of the Starless Night. Is she the lord of Byrne? Or a guest?
Soon Hitarian knew the answer. "It has been difficult for me to withdraw recently, but the situation is urgent and I must come back." She said, "Everyone knows that the Vampires have withdrawn from the Oath Keepers Alliance, and people from the Silent School are swarming into a small human kingdom."
Even the masked lady's voice is very pleasant. Hitarian looked at the others through the light. They were all holding pens and taking notes. Previously she thought these people were going to use magic. The flames pulse slightly, but the camera remains focused on the masked woman.
"...That's a vassal state of the Tower," she continued, "and the astrologers didn't react quite right."
Hitarian's attention was suddenly diverted from what she was saying. Is the tower's vassal country Eastman? No, Croita had other vassals, Eastman being the least notable of them all. My worries are completely unnecessary. To be honest, why should I worry?
However, the screen immediately jumped, and a human-shaped light group with an indistinguishable face appeared in the flames. He sat up straighter and said, "I don't think they're going to affect Byrne."
Byrne was in Eastman, Hitarian realized.
