552 Pomp (2/2)

Alger actually had an appointment with Kovaro on this matter, and he was only using it as a way to start the conversation.

Of course, he was well aware that to avoid the tsunami in the waters of the Rorsted Archipelago, Kovaro had definitely gone far away and would take some time before he returned to Bayam.

However, Alger wasn't too anxious, as he already knew that Mr. Moon had been given an acceptance draft. If he withdrew the sum before its maturity, he would receive a discounted value and lose a large amount of interest.

He deliberately nodded his head and said, ”Got it, thank you for telling me.”

At this point, Alger pretended to be unaware of what happened as he asked, ”I heard that many Sea God figurines in many places shattered by themselves?”

He hadn't witnessed any instances of this himself, but he could make a reasonable deduction based on the Church's archives.

In many of the colonial islands and countries of the Southern Continent, more than one or two false gods like Kalvetua had

been finished off by the seven Churches. What happened after their deaths had already long been recorded in the archives.

Ralph calmly nodded.

”Yes, there was such a thing.

”But that's not bad news.”

His expression turned fervent.

”Because God has appeared over the land once again in a new image!”

God has reappeared over the land once again with a new image? Alger's eyes remained fixed on him, and he felt that this was both reasonable but also unexpected.

Judging from the Church of Storms's reaction, he was certain that Kalvetua was already dead. Then which Sea God was responding to the believers now?

Connecting it with his previous judgment, he quickly came up with a bold idea: Is it an embodiment of Mr. Fool?

He used Sea God Kalvetua's perishing to create a new identity? He can release his powers through the seal to directly affect an identity in the real world?

Is this the real reason for The World to come to Bayam?

Hiss, Mr. Fool really does things with pomp!

Alger secretly swallowed his saliva and suppressed his excitement.

In the Wind of Azure Inn, Klein, who had yet to leave, saw the stack of cash Captain Elland handed him.

”Here is your reward for a total of a hundred pounds.”

He didn't mention how much Gehrman Sparrow and Danitz each received, but he gave a total amount As for how exactly they would split the reward, that was something he left to them.

The military is really generous... Klein silently mused as he received the thick stack of cash, instinctively taking out two five- pound notes and tossing them to Danitz.

He lowered his wrist and finally drew another two ten-pound notes in an expressionless manner.

Gehrman Sparrow is still rather just, far more just than Just Elland... Danitz put away the reward in pleasant surprise. His wallet that had slimmed down quite significantly over the past couple of days had finally been replenished.

Glancing at Gehrman Sparrow in his new clothes, Elland asked, after some deliberation, with his boat-shaped hat in hand, ”News from the Church of Storms has revealed that the person who posted the notices on the cathedral's door, informing them of the problem between Leticia and Sea God Kalvetua, was Blazing Danitz.

”What do you think about that?”

He stared straight into Danitz's eyes and waited for an answer.

”Haha.” Danitz gave a hollow chuckle. ”I don't know him.”

Klein was silent for two seconds before saying, ”While fulfilling a dead adventurer's wish, I came across Leticia and her companions at the inn.

”Snakes invaded our place in the middle of the night, but they easily resolved it.

”After returning to Bayam, I went to purchase some items from the Resistance and discovered that they had taken out their holy sword. Furthermore, there were two Mid-Sequence Beyonders guarding that small base.

”I felt a crazy will invade my body just by making contact with that holy sword for a moment, and I had nearly lost control on the spot

”They were still after Leticia.”

What Klein said was the truth; it wasn't the entire truth, but it was enough to infer the contents of the announcement.

Even if the kingdom's military and the Church of Storms were to investigate further, they would only be able to unearth the fact that Gehrman Sparrow could change his appearance.

After listening carefully, Elland sighed and smiled, ”If there are such things in the future, you don't have to post notices in the middle of the night. You can come find me directly. This will allow you to reap even greater rewards.”

He stood up, put on his hat, and said to Danitz, ”I heard that the bounty for Blazing is going to rise again.”
