Nataly quickly hid her infatuation and stated respectfully, "A few hours ago, through our information network, we received a secret ssage from an unknown source. According to this ssage, all this upheaval is caused by Star Hackers of a secret organization on the surface called ATLAS! And they were the ones who approached Her Holiness over two decades ago to find the location of the legendary key!"
rcy on the side suddenly widened her eyes slightly when she heard this, and a cold glint flashed past her eyes, "Did you find the source of this ssage?"
Nataly shook her head slightly, "No, Your Holiness, the ssenger was very clever and used one of our own people to send it. Although I don't know how they were able to get ahold of this ssage center, whoever they were, they knew how to use it. If I'm not wrong, they should be one of our hidden informative, but I'm not completely sure."
rcy frowned a little, "Alright, you are excused. Focus on calming down the masses and recovering all the damage. Anyone involved in this, even if they had the slightest bit of involvent in this, capture them for interrogation."
Nataly hesitated montarily before asking, "What about the Priest Lords? Although the attackers caused upheaval, they also exposed many of the Priest Lords' corruptions. They were completely aware of their dirty deeds and all the wealth they had hidden from us."
rcy dismissively replied as if she didn't care about this little problem at all, "Do you still need to ask? As my proxy, you should know how to deal with these degenerates better. There's no need to ask my permission for such trifle matters."
Nataly's eyes flashed coldly as she nodded, "I understand!" Then, she quickly left.
rcy also left the secret chamber and headed towards the prayer hall, where the statue of the rmaid Goddess was located. But now, there were many more statues, and in addition to those, there was a cloaked midget.
"What happened?" The midget asked in a static voice.
rcy sighed as she grimly stated, "Unexpectedly, nine large regions of the Siren Hymn Temple suffered terrorist attacks in the past three days. Do you want to hear sothing even more absurd? We received a secret ssage stating that those attacks were done by none other than the Star Hackers of ATLAS!"
The midget was startled and uttered incredulously, "Impossible! They shouldn't be here!"
rcy scoffed in derision, "That's what I thought as well. After all, you'd told they were doing sothing else to help us locate the Legendary Key. Yet here they are, causing problems in my territory!"
The midget fell into silence before replying after a while, "I'll look into it. If they are the ones behind this, I'll owe you an explanation."
rcy deeply looked at the midget's hooded face, which was enshrouded by a dark fog. She couldn't see through it, no matter what.
In the end, she sighed in resignation, "I don't have any choice in this matter, do I? I still don't understand the purpose behind all this?" She said this while looking at all those statues emitting a peculiar undulation, and inwardly, she felt ecstatic, but she still maintained her helpless expression.
After all, she knew this deal was nothing but a godsend for her, and that's why she was willing to comply with this midget's demands.
"Didn't I already tell you? Since there's so kind of problem locating the legendary key, we'll just have to locate the person holding it. Free Sword and his crew were the only people who were supposed to have it.
"Furthermore, Free Sword last appeared many years ago, and his actions at that ti were very strange. So, this will greatly help us in locating the legendary key. Even though prophesizing a person is more difficult than an item, I've already given you more than enough for this task." He impassively stated, clearly having no intention of revealing his hidden motives.
rcy didn't push further since she knew better. After all, she was getting the long end of the stick in this deal, so she was content. She was just annoyed by the fact that soone was causing trouble when she was so close to achieving her goal.
After all, once she achieved her goal, the entire Siren Hymn Temple could turn to ruin for all she cared.
"I understand. I'm just a little curious. After all, you want to prophesize all the people on this list, and you even go out of your way to collect all the information I need to perform an oracle about them. I have to admit, you know even more than Ocean Oracle than myself." rcy innocently stated.
"Don't overthink it. This is all just a precaution to make sure that even if Free Sword isn't the one holding the Legendary Key, it could be with one of his crew mbers or anyone who ca in contact with him. We need to end this once and for all since ti is running out," the midget explained coolly.
'Like hell, I believe you. There is sothing you want from one of these people on this list, and I'll know once I perform an oracle about them. No matter how much you tried to hide it, I'm also a Golden Constant. Those who wander the infinite ti are prone to observe ti differently…' She sneered inwardly but didn't let it show on her face.
"Then let's start without any further due. Let experience this Fate Soul Formation that we spend so much effort and these many faith-type treasures to build." rcy chuckled with a hint of excitent before she moved towards the runic platform in the middle of the statues.
The midget didn't speak and only watched her going in. His eyes flashed coldly, 'You're digging your own grave by probing into the matter of Tiless City Lord, just like my old self.'
Under his cloak, a gloating smile appeared on his face, showing his sharp rows of teeth as if he were extrely pleased with soone else heading towards the sa abyss he once fell into!
