Chapter 129 Halester (please subscribe ~ ask for monthly ticket~)

Late at night, Halester.

Somewhere in a secret room, a youngster is flipping through the secret letter in his hand.

He looked calm and thoughtful in his eyes.

A few minutes later, the youngster laughed.

He raised his hand and lit the secret letter on the candle.

The flames flickered, illuminating the youngster’s face.

“Goethe .Wayne.”

youngster whispered the name while looking at the burning letter.

Then, got up and left the secret room.

……

When the first rays of sunlight appeared on the side of the day, Goethe, Sierra and Swart finally saw the largest city in the north, ‘Halester’, a line on the horizon. The darkness deepened under the sun, as if a giant beast was crawling on the ground, ready to choose someone to devour.

“Halester was just a small fishing village in its earliest days, but as the ancestors of Scrooge Gram made their fortunes in ‘Bear Castle’ and opened up the transportation channel of the entire Sword Bay, it gradually became the northern border. However, because of the war with Faber, Halester was originally built as a military fortress.”

Sierra looked at the big city in the distance, and couldn’t help but feel a touch of longing.

The picture of surging forward with great momentum slowly unfolded in her mind. She seemed to see the golden horse of the ancestors of Scrooge Gram, and also saw the miracle from nothing, everything. Everything was so addicting to her.

Her [heart] moved slightly.

Immediately, a smile appeared on Sierra’s face.

Goethe is keenly aware of Sierra’s changes.

“Is this some kind of ability?”

Goethe guessed.

Sierra didn’t hide it.

“It’s the specificity of my baptism ceremony.”

Sierra said directly.

Then, she stared at Goethe, expecting to see Goethe moving.

It’s better to be moved enough to reveal more of the secrets of the ‘Mad King’s legacy’ to her.

Unfortunately, Goethe just nodded and moved on.

“Stone-hearted bastard!”

“Isn’t that impressed at all?”

“I’m starting to reveal my secrets!”

Sierra was puffed up, but the multi-identity lady on the spot had something else in mind.

“Could it be that Goethe already knew?”

“Is he testing me?”

“Otherwise why did it happen to be at this sunrise? Time to arrive at Halester?”

“The teacher said that my baptism ceremony is special and most people don’t know it, so it needs to be kept extremely secret, but as a Guardian of the ‘Mad King’s legacy’… …”

“Goethe may have seen the clue, so he will test me?!”

Thinking of this, Sierra was startled.

Immediately, looked towards Goethe.

Goethe noticed Sierra’s intelligent look, but ignored it.

He just wants to hurry up and get into Halester now, and then, get in touch with someone from the ‘Secret Keeper’ branch in the North.

Not just security, but information!

He needs to know more about the North.

Only in this way can he be able to determine who his enemy is.

And Swart is also bent on getting into Halester.

However, unlike Goethe, the sheriff just wanted a hot bath and a good night’s sleep – an afternoon + a night’s trek, even for a long time, with Goethe carried it away, but for Swart, the ordinary person, it had reached the limit.

The reason why I can still move now is completely relying on willpower.

Goethe, who showed the “Secret Keeper Trainee Certificate”, entered Halester Police Station unimpeded, and met Sheriff ‘Gabriel’ who was in charge of transcendent docking.

This is a young sheriff, in his early twenties, in a clean and tidy police uniform. When he saw Goethe and his party, he smiled enthusiastically.

“Your Excellency Creedor has notified me in advance.”

“Your Excellency Goethe .Wayne, please come with me.”

“I have arranged for you Okay the hotel.”

Speaking, the young sheriff walked out of the police station with Goethe and his party, and raised his hand to the hotel not far from the police station: ‘An Lun’s hookah’ .

“‘An Lun’s Hookah’ is a good hotel, the boss is very nice, the room is quiet and the bed is comfortable enough.”

“The most important thing is that his family provides The three meals are worth tasting.”

The young sheriff introduced.

“Where’s Your Excellency Creedor?”

Goethe, who was following behind him, asked.

“Something has happened in the town near Halester recently – the ‘Wendigo’ man-eater that was supposed to only be seen occasionally in winter has somehow appeared in summer!”

“Lord Creedor and other lords are now hunting these cannibal monsters and investigating why this happened.”

“So, for the past week or two, I can only host Everyone.”

The young sheriff explained.

The three of Goethe looked at each other as they said ‘Wendigo’.

“Isn’t Halester now unguarded?”

Swart asked in surprise.

The sheriff’s awareness of ‘transcendent’ has risen to a rather cautious level after experiencing Luster’s stretch.

“How is that possible?”

“Halester has the Archduke of Scrooge Gram.”

“The Archduke’s Guard is sufficient for everything, and…”

p>

Speaking of this, the young sheriff lowered his voice.

“Usually, the ‘transcendent incident’ in Halester is basically the responsibility of the Grand Duke Guard – Lord Creedor and the others will only take action when the Grand Duke Guard can’t get away.”

“This is why the Archduke and Lord Creedor are at odds.”

“It is rumored that the two were good friends who talked about everything when they were young, and they were at Scrooge Gram. When the Archduke was the head of the ‘Secret Keeper Division’ in the North, Lord Creedor was the Archduke’s deputy.”

“Unfortunately, alas.”

The young sheriff sighed.

“It’s a pity, so Halester should be safe?”

Swart sighed along with him.

And, indiscernibly poking for news.

Goethe frowned.

He had heard about the feud between Archduke Scrooge Gram and Creedor before he came – Morey gave him as much detail as possible about the North, but Morey did not mention the Archduke Guard.

Clearly, it wasn’t Morey’s concealment.

However, Morey didn’t know about the Grand Duke’s Guard either.

“Scrooge Gram has more control over Halester than I thought!”

Goethe thought.

This kind of control is not a good thing for him.

He needs to investigate who is targeting him.

And the person targeting him is likely to be the person next to the Grand Duke.

He can’t say, sorry I want to investigate your son, daughter?

Moreover, Creedor’s departure made Goethe suspicious.

“Will someone arrange it on purpose?”

“Leaving me alone!”

Goethe walked into the ‘An’ with speculation. Lun’s hookah’.

The first floor is not like a traditional hotel, but has several dining tables. The smell of breakfast wafting from the kitchen proves that what the young sheriff said was true.

The three meals here are worth savoring.

At least breakfast was no problem!

Immediately, Goethe offered to go to the room after breakfast.

Swart and Sierra have no objection.

The young sheriff walked to the bar immediately.

“This guy is a little bit like a sheriff.”

Swart said immediately after he sat down, making sure he wouldn’t be heard.

“He’s impersonating?”

Sierra’s eyes flashed cold light immediately.

Goethe and Swart rolled their eyes together.

“We met him in the police station, wouldn’t the whole police station be blind?”

“Or do you think the whole police station is cooperating? Does he act?”

“If he can do this, he doesn’t need such a troublesome impersonation at all, he has more means to deceive us.”

Swart reluctantly explaining.

“Maybe he has some peculiar hobby?”

Sierra said.

“Come on, not everyone is perverted!”

“I said he’s not like the sheriff because he’s too young and doesn’t act like a Sheriff – in the Luster police station, a guy like that would be eaten to the bone.”

Swart didn’t give Sierra another chance to talk about his feelings.

Immediately, Sierra casts a contemptuous look.

No doubt this lady also knows something about the Luster Police Department.

“Maybe Halester is much better than Luster!”

“After all, this is the largest city in the North!”

“After all, there are Archduke Scrooge Gram!”

Sierra emphasized.

Swart didn’t talk anymore, he didn’t want to talk to the fool – the moment he stepped into the police station before, the familiarity had already told Swart that the police station here is no different from the Luster police station .

Maybe it would be better.

But to a limited extent.

Swart glanced at Goethe.

Seeing Goethe’s self-awareness, the sheriff immediately turned his attention to the food.

Mushroom soup, muffins, ham and salad.

The salad is chicken salad with a little lemon, which is very appetizing.

Fried ham is simply fried, it is completely the original flavor of ham, although it is a little salty, but the sweetness of the muffin and the deliciousness of the mushroom soup completely neutralize the salty taste.

Especially in the mushroom soup, Goethe had a light meaty taste.

The soup base is obviously a stick bone with meat.

“Very good.”

Goethe commented.

Swart devoured it, he was starving.

Sierra, on the other hand, was caught by a motorcade outside the hotel after eating a little.

Beside the carriage drawn by four pure black war horses, an old steward in a tuxedo stood silently, carrying all around a procession of twenty people, standing straight, with serious faces and costumes Unity, with a long spear on your back, be on guard all around.

“Which great noble is this?”

Although there is no noble family crest on the body, Sierra can be sure of the other’s noble status.

Neither the old steward’s attitude nor the guards around him can be possessed by so-called businessmen.

Especially the leading guard, Sierra could clearly feel the extraordinaryness of the other party.

Without a doubt, the transcender!

While Sierra was still guessing, the old steward noticed Sierra and immediately showed a polite smile. Steward stepped into the hotel.

Two paces from the table, the old steward said respectfully to Goethe-

“Wayne Young Master, Master asked me to take you home.”

Then, the old steward straightened up, looked towards the young sheriff, and said in a voice that only a few people present could hear: “And you, Gegil Young Master.”
