Anti-Dusk Small Alliance – Additional update for “Leisurely Survivor” brothers 【1/25】_2 Shani’s tone beca serious as she said,
“You probably can’t understand the threat that your sudden interference poses to my strategy.
I had already realized the corruption within Bernel City’s Thieves Guild beforehand, and I initially planned to keep them around to observe and track to obtain more clues.
However, your investigation into the Snegov family has alerted them.
This has irreversibly brought things to the current state.
I’m not accusing you of being reckless, but the fact is, since the Blood Vulture Clan is not adept at covert operations, then stop pretending you’re assassins or infiltrators.
If I hadn’t intervened in ti, the situation could have beco much worse!
It might have even sparked a terrible massacre and panic in Bernel City.
I hope you can give a heads up before your next move, so I can be prepared.”
“Ha, another fool who tries to reach into the mud to find the truth!
Another confident soul who tries to dirty their hands to catch the culprit.”
Triss imdiately retorted,
“Do you know who the last person to do this was?
The last saintly White Knight of the Avalon Church, Old Feinock Lawson, also made the sa choice as you.
He tried to infiltrate the Dusk to acquire their core secrets, but can you guess what beca of him?”
Seeing Shani’s expression filled with surprise and doubt, Murphy sighed and said,
“Old Feinock urged us on his deathbed never to try to infiltrate the enemy to spy on Dusk, because that’s exactly what they want you to do.
Old Feinock was able to remain clear-headed in his last monts thanks to the blessing of the Avalon god, but we Vampires have no Divine Spirit to protect us.
Therefore, Lady Shani, stop this suicidal behavior.
You think you are a clever Hunter, but in reality, you’re a prey walking into traps step by step, your actions are fundantally wrong and risky, and you won’t be able to get the information you crave from them.
What awaits you can only be assimilation into one of The Fallen.
It’s an organization of Heretics related to the interdinsional!
I don’t think your will is strong enough to face the shadows of the interdinsional space and remain steadfast…
No!
You are a descendant of envy.
There is a terrible darkness hidden in your heart, so you won’t succeed!”
The duo’s advice left Shani hesitating for a mont.
But the Thorns Duke didn’t respond directly; instead, she steered the conversation back to the previous issue, saying,
“For roughly five years, the Kafuhoka region’s Thieves Guild has been constantly accepting orders from so mysterious powers, requesting them to visit the hotowns of all heroes that have appeared in the Posya Confederation area and to rekindle their remaining power.
Well, that’s the ‘artistic’ explanation.
The ugly truth is, for these five years, a group of Tomb Robbers under the Thieves Guild’s banner have been digging everywhere, and what happened in Count Xike’s mausoleum is not an isolated incident.
Before you caught that group of Tomb Robbers, the tombs of ancient heroes such as ‘Wind Chaser Nolan,’ ‘King of War Dogs Carter,’ ‘Savage Brawler Xius,’ and others have already been robbed, and these guys have even, during the most chaotic ti of the ten-year war, crossed national borders deep into the Nordtov Kingdom territory.
That’s when we noticed their activities.
The people behind the scenes are very ambitious; they even had the audacity to eye the mausoleum of Hero King Boris, my ancestor.”
Shani shook her head and said,
“I have enough reason to believe that these guys are not only doing this in the Kafuhoka region—other regional Thieves Guilds certainly have similar orders too.
Unfortunately, the Thorn Clan is just one of the founders of the Thieves Guild, and I don’t have the authority to pull the instructions for every job from the Thieves Guild headquarters on the Ligurian Peninsula.
But from the information I currently have, in these five years, at least 8 corpses of the heroes of the Golden Tier have been stolen, and at least 35 of the Silver Tier.
I still can’t understand, what are these guys going to do with these remnants that have been eroded by ti?
Perform so kind of evil ritual?
Or use so sort of Necromancy Skills to summon the spirits of the heroes?
But that’s not how Netherworld Law works!
Even though my knowledge is far less than that of the legendary elders like the Crimson Witch, who has left stories across the Continent, I also know that the gates of Netherworld have always been guarded by the Moon Holy City of the Sanghai Empire, and those Moonlight Priests are closely watching the boundary between life and death.
Even the Dusk would not be able to freely enter that plane belonging to the dead, let alone such large-scale soul summoning.”
The atmosphere in the parlor suddenly beca so still it was haunting.
Shani’s expression changed slightly because she quickly realized from the change in Triss and Murphy’s expressions that sothing bad had likely happened in Transylvania that she was yet unaware of.
Under her heavy gaze, Murphy sighed and said,
“Your understanding of the Netherworld Plane apparently still lingers on the old version, but the situation has already updated, Lady Shani, the Dusk now possesses a rather sophisticated system of undead.
Like everything that happened in Westerburg…”
He briefly recounted the situation with the Netherworld Army in Westerburg to Shani, shocking the Thorns Duke into abruptly rising from her seat.
At this mont, there was no longer any semblance of a gentle housewife’s feigned smile on Shani’s face, replaced instead by a hint of anger and a slight fear.
