The Red Snake looked at Kana in front of her.
She was waiting for Kana's question, and was simultaneously pondering what Kana wanted to confirm.
After all, she had never seen Kana before and had never intersected with him in any way.
Not just her, but Alyris and others beside her were also curious and expectant.
Everyone who had long assisted Kana in his endeavors and helped him knew one thing clearly.
Kana's actions co with a definite goal.
And certainly with so level of secrecy.
An unknown goal.
This was a manifestation of Kana's Prophet attributes, and those familiar with him were already accustod to it.
This was clearly known to them from the mont they t Kana.
Perhaps Kana himself did not realize it.
When Kana did not have a clear goal, he would rather stay in one place, studying various things without stepping out.
Like staying at the Night Watcher Headquarters, where Kana had devoted nearly an entire year to research and self-improvent.
Yet whenever he takes action, there's certainly a clear goal involved.
Sotis, even multiple goals stacked together.
This was indeed the case.
Otherwise, why would Kana co here? He could easily send a Tactical Master to lead a team.
This support operation for the Green Land Kingdom wouldn't hold much significance with or without him.
His presence rely added high-end combat power, but in the battle against rodents, such power wouldn't occupy a major advantage—it mainly relied on the soldiers below to gain an advantage on the battlefield.
Of course, this was rely Kana's own belief.
Assisting the Green Land Kingdom was only incidental; the true purpose was to et the mage before him—Ashley.
"A long ti ago, during your period as a Mage Apprentice, you should have acquired a statue.
It was an absolutely exquisite little statue; once seen, it's unforgettable, astonishing in its intricacy and perfection.
The carving might depict the legendary little fairy."
A little fairy statue?
Alyris was sowhat puzzled, slightly turning her head to glance at Bobo beside her with a questioning expression.
What was a little fairy? To Alyris, it was an absolute blind spot in her knowledge.
Bobo quietly said, "It's a presence from stories representing purity and beauty. Childhood fairy tales always feature such things."
Little fairy.
For the vast majority of people in this world, it certainly belonged to the realm of fairy tales.
Unlike the Stone of Creation in fairy tales and most literary works, the little fairy was almost assud not to exist.
Upon hearing Kana's question.
The Red Snake was sowhat confused, her willow-leaf-like brows slightly furrowing.
Seemingly recalling, yet seemingly pondering.
"That past is too distant; I need to think back a bit."
Clearly, the Red Snake in front of her appeared young and beautiful, but in reality, her age was already substantial.
The lifespan of powerful beings cannot be determined by their race's average lifespan.
Especially when it cos to the legendary.
"There indeed is such an item, but it was from so long ago, a small collection filled with my mories."
For a Legend, an exquisite and perfect-looking little statue rely counts as a small collection. If it hadn't been a gift received during her apprentice period, it would hold hardly any value for a Legendary Mage, not even ornantal.
After speaking, the Red Snake stretched out her hand, her fingers lightly sliding below her cheek as if pondering where she had placed the item.
She wasn't foolish; Kana's certainty about such a thing ant it clearly held value for him.
Perhaps the item contained so secret she hadn't discovered.
But given the current situation, it held no aning; even if it sheltered an entire Stone of Creation inside, it also held no significance.
Because she couldn't uncover the statue's secret.
Obviously, the young man in front of her wanted this statue.
At least in terms of her values, such an item was far less than the assistance Kana might provide.
This was absolutely, absolutely worthwhile.
Even without any help from Kana, the friendship with a newly erged Legend was worth the gift of such items.
Soon, the Red Snake recalled.
She whispered to a Personal Guard beside her for a while.
Then watched him go to retrieve it for her.
"Just wait a while; my servant will bring it."
Kana nodded, actually standing there quietly waiting.
This couldn't help but make the Red Snake raise her eyebrows slightly; that item seed even more important to Kana than she thought.
Given this, there was no choice but to wait.
This was exactly what Kana wanted to convey.
That item was sufficiently valuable and was sothing the Red Snake before him hadn't discovered. Kana had to make her clearly aware of this.
Starting her psychological preparation now.
To avoid the Red Snake later feeling deceived.
All at once, the crowd standing there, the atmosphere beca subtly quiet, even beginning to feel sowhat awkward.
The Red Snake along with surrounding officials and soldiers watched the Night Watcher so calmly and unperturbed that, mysteriously feeling statuesque, they stood similarly.
Though Night Watchers looked very composed gazing ahead, their channel was alight with fervent conversation.
[Bobo: What is that thing? You're just waiting here for it.]
[Kana: It's very important; if not for this thing, I wouldn't waste the ti coming here.]
For Kana, if not for this item, it indeed would waste his ti coming here.
He had nurous tasks to address, and ti was precious.
[Lululuse: The little fairy statue, you wouldn't be implying that it's really a little fairy, would you?]
Though it sounded absurd, given it was sothing Kana wanted, thinking this way appeared reasonable.
Montarily, the people in the channel were all surprisingly in agreent.
[Kana: Imagination is rich, but I must say… you guessed correctly.]
Upon Kana's revelation in the channel, the Imperial Guard hastily arrived.
Perhaps wriggling described it better.
Yet he held in his hand a small ring.
Evidently, it was a piece of Space Equipnt.
For a Legendary Mage, Space Equipnt was not expansive.
The Red Snake accepted the ring, carefully probing inside for a while, seemingly only then locating the item and slowly extracting it from the Space Equipnt.
All eyes gathered over, eager to see what Kana had been waiting for.
Removed.
It's a box.
"After all, it's a childhood mory that needs protection," the Red Snake calmly remarked.
Having handed the box to Kana.
It is a small box, approximately head-sized, clearly indicating that the statue inside wouldn't be very large.
Kana opened the box.
Revealing a little fairy statue inside.
Mild murmurs of surprise arose around.
Because everyone looking at the statue had to acknowledge the statue as almost life-like in its refinent.
Perfect coloring, ticulous motions, and facial expressions.
Bobo: "Okay, it really does look alive."
Her words were clearly overheard by the Red Snake.
"When I initially received this gift, I also considered it alive, but after extensive checking, I can confirm it truly is just an exquisite statue."
There are various ways to turn living things into sculptures; she herself is capable of performing such.
She had placed this statue in her room during childhood for over ten years.
If indeed there was any other secret, she would have discovered it long ago.
