Roselyn spoke while gently turning the dagger.
“But it doesn’t matter. The relics now can all be activated by our own methods. It’s just that they can only bring out forty percent of their original power.”
“So next is sealing Creis and going to Monastar, right?”
“That’s right.”
At this point, Roselyn took three more stone tablets from her waist and handed them to Gabriella.
This was Roselyn’s second ability—magic item creation.
The difference from Morphis and Philina’s magic was that her magic items, that is, the rune stone tablets, only needed to be gently crushed to take effect.
Even ordinary people or even animals could use them.
Gabriella carefully observed these rune stone tablets.
In the past she could still more or less distinguish the type of magic based on experience, but Roselyn was different.
The tablets Roselyn drew could be called the most complicated kind among magic arrays.
Roselyn explained, “The first is a teleportation tablet. Although it isn’t much use now, once Creis is sealed we can leave the Holy King Capital. The second is a rewind tablet, which can spatially transfer the body to an area from a few seconds earlier. The last is a defense tablet.”
Gabriella nodded, then took the dagger.
Facing this kind of situation Gabriella still had some experience.
As long as she could find a reason to stall, she could create the false impression that “I cannot approach Creis” and thus be unable to achieve the goal.
She could not actually seal Creis.
That was the most irrational choice.
The rational choice was—even considering it from the standpoint of value, betraying Creis was absolutely out of the question.
Gabriella suddenly felt she was putting in painstaking effort as well.
After all, from beginning to end, besides wanting these pitiful Heavenly Oracle Envoys to fall and become subordinates of the Evil God, she also had to soothe their emotions like a mother.
In the first few days after arriving, Flame Saint Hertitz had felt as unfamiliar with the environment as Roselyn.
By now she had surely been able to integrate into this mansion to some extent.
Finally, Gabriella was about to take the dagger, but Isabella beat her to it.
“Leave Creis’s matter to me. I am the Royal Knight Captain.”
Roselyn could not help being a bit suspicious. “May I ask, are you human?”
“Yes.”
“Then what you have to face is a Celestial God. If you are below Emperor-rank, the chances are slim. Even with my assistance, the success rate is very low.”
“Don’t look down on me～” Isabella smiled.
At some unknown point the dagger had already appeared in her hand, as if she was determined to succeed at this matter.
“No… Lady Divine Maiden, actually I have been thinking all along about why you want to trust an ordinary human.” Roselyn said in puzzlement.
“Why not?”
Gabriella sighed. “We Heavenly Oracle Envoys exist precisely to protect humans.”
Roselyn once again looked deeply at Gabriella, and in the end still nodded decisively in agreement.
Finally, in order to make Gabriella trust her, Roselyn took out two orange cards.
These two cards contained information composed of a certain kind of mana.
Roselyn explained, “This is Monastar’s highest-authority pass. If you can go to Monastar, this card can let you enter any place in the streets and alleys. In addition, if you inject mana, the Heavenly Oracle Envoys can protect you at any time… Apart from you all, this card is only possessed by two young women.”
Isabella noticed the young women in Roselyn’s words. “Who are they?”
“One of them is Lartomia. The other is Miss Hero.”
“Lartomia… didn’t she die?” Hertitz asked.
“Mm, but we specially left a card for her. These words can wait until later.” Roselyn nodded. “Lady Letitia does not want me to mention matters regarding Lartomia.”
Clearly, the information Roselyn understood was far more than Hertitz’s.
Letitia would tell her many things.
Hertitz hardly spoke at all.
She remained silent the entire time, as if she had something on her mind, and also as if she felt her views were not suitable to speak in front of them.
After they left the magic room, Gabriella suddenly proposed, “Since we are all companions now, Miss Roselyn should change into a maid outfit.”
“After all, when in Rome do as the Romans do. Standing out like this is very conspicuous.”
Roselyn was still very hesitant at first, but under Gabriella’s repeated persuasion she still chose to compromise.
It was Hertitz who helped her change clothes.
They stayed in the changing room for at least more than an hour.
At the beginning, when Roselyn took the maid outfit from her hands, she examined it in front of herself for a long time, then used mana to inspect it for a long time before she was willing to put it on.
So in that more than an hour she only spent five minutes changing clothes. The remaining hour was all spent checking whether there were hidden dangers in the clothes.
Roselyn after changing into the maid outfit could almost be considered a different person.
The androgynous tailcoat was now replaced by a skirt, over-knee socks put on, and a cute heart-shaped leg ring tied on.
Hertitz even helped her comb her hair.
Two teal-green braids hung down to her chest, the rest of the hair neatly coiled up, leaving only a little curtain of bangs.
Her slender figure and the temperament of a strictly trained agent were perfectly brought out at this moment.
In addition, Roselyn could be called “all-rounder” among the Heavenly Oracle Envoys.
Maid work came even more easily to her.
Just standing there, Gabriella would believe she was a seasoned maid.
She also looked over her own body, slightly lifted a small foot, glanced at the socks, and finally shifted her gaze onto Gabriella. “Like this, it’s fine, right?”
“No problem～”
Isabella asked, “Don’t you feel unaccustomed?”
“I think it’s alright. However, the Church shouldn’t have this kind of fabric.”
“That’s because in the past someone passed the demon race’s textile techniques to the Holy King Capital.” Gabriella smiled.
Although the surface was calm, one had to admit Roselyn was indeed extraordinary.
Roselyn nodded.
She shifted her gaze onto Hertitz. “What work do you do?”
“I assist Lady Isa. I am her assistant, in charge of the kitchen. Mm, sometimes I also help Miss Creis.”
Roselyn nodded. “Then I’ll follow you. That should be no problem, right? Miss Creis, our work should be closely coordinated. That way it’s also easier to communicate.”
Gabriella smiled helplessly. “Go ask Miss Olivia for instructions. She won’t refuse either.”
“I understand.”
Before they parted, Gabriella saw with her own eyes that Roselyn’s pair of light-green eyes often locked onto Hertitz.
That was not a look of suspicion, nor was it vigilance, but a kind of concern.
Now, Gabriella was even more certain that there must be some kind of relationship between the two of them.
