Anais had the face of a beautiful elf woman, but this did not add color to her plea. The Silver Song Knights only wanted to find the enemy who killed their companions and were indifferent to her. "Please," she whispered, "Goffel was forced. Styx took her."
"Who's Styx?"
Uriel's voice startled her. Maybe she didn't expect anyone to respond. Compared with Aurora, Anais is almost a pure girl who is ignorant of the world. After all, even a fool like Memie knows that the person who once planned to stew her to detoxify cannot be considered as a person to ask for help.
Uriel guards the prisoners while Bogart and Joey search the courtyard. He was not in fear for his life, so he was willing to communicate with her - at least in the eyes of others. The existence of the parchment is his secret.
"Don't be afraid, miss." The apprentice comforted, "I am a monk of Gaia and will never hurt you. Who is Styx?"
Anais stayed for a while before answering: "He is a thief."
"Thief?"
"It's what you think, Uriel. Styx was originally from Aurenia, and his father suddenly turned into the Primeval and set the barn on fire. The family was driven out by the local lord and fled to Alanvor. .”
"Too detailed." The apprentice muttered. Water fairies always know a lot of things if they want to.
"He stole Goffel in Kamaria and took her to hide in the castle." Anais continued. She is obviously using the water fairy's talent to explore the past. Aurora, the former leader of the goblin clan, didn't reveal herself at all when using the same ability, and the speed and accuracy of obtaining information were far superior to hers. "Goffel fell in love with him when she was an adult. She did not poison the well voluntarily."
"I'm sorry. But what's wrong with it?"
"Goffel is a creature of the Bible. She will only fall in love with someone she hates."
"I don't understand." She spoke as confusingly as Bai Zhizhi. "You mentioned the Bible?"
"I didn't." She denied.
"Maybe I heard it wrong." But the Scroll of Oath never misjudges a lie. "I really want to help you, Miss Anais. Eating intelligent creatures is a terrible act and will be despised by the gods. I don't want my companions to do this."
Anais turned back. "You don't recognize them as your companions." Her voice was as soft as water, but the words she spat out were quite sharp. "You seem to only care about certain people."
Uriel had to admit. "There is no way, people are close to each other." He likes Bogat and Rego, and even Orcus, who has not spoken a few words, because they are all Knights of Silver Song and belong to the "Victor" Veronka. His cavalry. Even as powerful as the Aurenia Empire, it fell apart in the dragon disaster. Only the legend of the Silver Song Knights is still popular and immortal. Every knight can be called a hero, and who doesn’t like heroes? Templar wizards and tower messengers both pale in comparison to the Knights of Silversong. For personal reasons, he especially disliked Dui Lin.
Joey was originally an exception. But the White Envoy is still the guardian of the mysterious realm. His legend began with the disaster of the undead two hundred years ago and continues to the present day. Uriel was only surprised that no one ever mentioned that the White Envoy was once a Silver Song Knight. This experience should have been the origin of everything, a legend worthy of being described in detail. How did it get lost in history?
The dream will tell him the answer. Regarding the replacement of the Emperor of Aurenia, the coup of Saint Valoran, the disaster caused by the "Twilight Veil"... they seem to have been revealed one by one. The water fairy Anais is the mouthpiece of the truth. She has extraordinary power and can solve most mysteries.
As long as he gains her trust.
"I don't want to be eaten either," Anais said. "Goffel is different from me. After her death, new members of the same race will be born, but if I die, I will really die."
This is the first time the apprentice has heard of it. No wonder it was so easy for her to decide to betray her own people to survive. "Because you are a First Origin?"
Anais nodded. "The original source is a gift from the gods to living beings, just like a cat's second life. But it will be gone once you use it."
"Really? I have seen an undead creature, and he also has no...origin."
"What I said is not accurate. Of course the gods include the God of Death, but you humans don't worship Him."
"I guess no living thing worships Death, if that's what I think he is."
"No, Uriel, the faith you serve was born out of fear, and living people will worship death because they are afraid of death."
"You are also afraid of death."
"Gefier and I are different." The Silver Song Knight began to search the room at the back, and Anais's voice became softer. "She is no longer one of my kind. I belong to the Veil of Dusk and have new companions."
This saying has a great market in later generations, but it was different in the ancient times. "The First Origin is just a talent. You are still you, and a person is still a human being. Will the First Origin of mankind grow wings because of this talent? If so, you will not be caught."
"Jayne Hesser betrayed us."
"For you, the cunning of humans is unimaginable." Fairies can understand the past and present, but only if they "want" to do so. "He didn't get any benefits either. Du Yilin dragged him behind a horse and brought him back."
"With Gulsha and Chirang."
"Your friends are suspected of disturbing the order of the city. Before the Silver Song Knight came to the door, Du Yilin came to warn Jayne Hesser. Could it be that you don't know this?"
Anais turned her head away. Although Jayne was worried about the Twilight Veil helping his enemies, he couldn't force them if they refused. The people of Dusk Veil accepted the employment of the Lord's Son and did not give up even after discovering something unusual about the well water. Needless to say, they were lucky.
"I know a lot you don't know," she said unconvinced, "I know your name, Uriel."
"You blurted it out before." The apprentice didn't find it strange at all, "I've seen water fairies before and know your habits."
"I mean secrets, not just names."
Of course Uriel understood, but her eagerness to correct him was quite interesting. At this moment, Joey and Bogart had thoroughly searched the room and started heading towards the backyard. The person they were looking for was in the well, and the apprentice neither took action nor left. The other person gradually became anxious. "Then let's talk about the secret. Why did Styx poison the well of Mortus?" he continued, leaving them anxious.
"He's going to deal with you."
"Us?" It turned out that it was not Du Yilin who caused the trouble. The people peeking into the manor and poisoning were not members of the Twilight Veil, and it was certainly not her thing. Uriel removed himself from the group of envoys and got his answer immediately. "He wants to deal with the Silver Song Knight?"
"That's what Ge Feier heard."
The water fairies' abilities come from each other. "So you heard it too? Anais, if it were me, I would never forget to beware of the water fairy when using her. Since Stix can steal your companions, it means that he can probably think of this. "
"But isn't it your strong point to judge lies?"
This makes sense. Uriel was speechless and had to change the subject. "Then why does Stix deal with the Silversong Knight?"
"He didn't tell Ge Feier."
It seems that I am the one who is stupid, and the enemy is smart. Uriel and Anais, the dull water fairy, had nothing more to say, because the Silver Song Knights had already arrived nearby. Joey dismounted, still holding the spear in his hand. Bogart walked in front of him, with no blood on him.
"I thought you could make handy weapons."
The instructor frowned. "It's such a waste of magic power. And the iron guy is more useful. Would you do that?"
"No, I don't often do it either. Have you found anyone?"
"Only mortals running errands and a mess of poems and manuscripts are left. This seems to be the residence of a poet. The servants have never seen the water goblin and are completely at the mercy of a mysterious creature named Styx. You Did you find out his identity?"
"The identity is not suspicious." Uriel replied, trying his best not to pay attention to Anais' hurt eyes. I promised to follow Joey's lead, and it would save your life. Regardless of whether Gopher was coerced or not, she poisoned Orcus. "But the purpose is worthy of vigilance. Everything he does is aimed at you." The apprentice repeated Anais' information.
"How could an Aurenian go to Alanvor and steal the water goblin?" Bogart thought thoughtfully, "He must have been instigated by someone."
"You might as well ask in person. They are hiding in a well not far away. What is there in the house that makes them unwilling to give up?"
Joey had already rushed forward.
A few minutes later, Bogart and he worked together to salvage a frozen block, but there was no one in it. Uriel noticed the problem before the Silver Song Knights this time. "It's the Nameless One again," he whispered to himself. The first wave of nightingales who spied on the manor were all First Origin, but not people from the "Twilight Veil". If Styx himself was not a nameless one, he would not have been able to find so many of his kind.
Of course Anais felt it too. The nameless one's fire radiates heat like a flame, and magic continues to inspire mystery. Sticks used some unknown magic to escape without taking Gopher with him. She gritted her teeth as she stared at the ice, trying to stay calm. The well water was frozen into ice, and there were almost no human figures left. "She's alive." Uriel had to tell her.
"Stix ran away. She didn't listen to you and will be eaten soon." Anais shook her head desperately, "I hope she won't meet that guy again in her new life."
After the ice thawed, the melted water turned into a human-looking water fairy. Somehow, Uriel thought she looked familiar.
Same goes for Joey. "Change your appearance." He ordered directly, "You are offending Princess Helen."
"I don't know her." Gopher didn't give in, "But Stix is afraid of this look."
"Afraid?" Uriel was quite surprised.
"I once heard him having a tryst with this woman." Goffier replied. Her body was made of flowing water, but her expression was as hard as rock. "They happened to pick a lake. That was six years ago."
