  Over the next few days, while Charlie continued generating Reiki with the hand seals, he also kept his distance from the ring.Having made all the necessary preparations, he had nothing much to worry about when he returned to Aurous Hill. Even if the ring drained all his Reiki, he could just refill it with cultivating pills.He might even toy with the ring to see who could last longer.Vera was naturally really supportive of the plan—she was convinced Marcius Stark had kept this card close to his chest, but he had been earnest when he sent Elijah and Fleur away from the mountain to save the country.That meant aside from emergency teleportation, the ring must have another purpose as well.Still, while Charlie was preparing to leave with Vera, Merlin decided against it and told him, "I'm going to stay and keep training the AI module. There have been ideas I've had that I want to try, and it would help us a lot if it works."Knowing that Merlin was getting addicted to training the

  Vera, standing nearby, suddenly giggled. "Helena, the winters here are too long, and it can get boring just hanging around. Why don't you visit Oskia instead? I'm sure you travel to Southern Europe or tropical countries during winters here too, right?"Helena smiled, not expecting the sudden invitation."We do travel to Southern Europe or tropical countries where we have property and are friendly with the local governments. That way, we'd have more privacy, and passing through customs is easier, but not Oskia. I can go on an official visit, but without any property, having a vacation there might not be easy."Vera said, "It's not a big deal, actually—just a sister city relationship between Oslo and Aurous Hill. You can use that as an excuse to go to Aurous Hill, and there will be a suite waiting for you at Shangri-La for further convenience. Charlie owns it, and you could tell the local government that you don't want publicity. There's no problem with that at all."Helena's eyes lit

  Vera and Helena were the best of friends by the time Charlie and Merlin returned to Norway.It was late winter, and there was barely any sunlight, so the whole country was basically going into hibernation, and the royal family was no different.Foreign and domestic events were mostly suspended while the Queen stayed in seclusion, avoiding public appearances unless it was absolutely necessary. Without much else to do, Helena spent nearly every day with Vera.She had bought and tidied up the farm Charlie had asked her to purchase, and she would spend the day there with Vera whenever they could, tending to the livestock as well as taking strolls with the cats and dogs.Still, after spending so much time with Vera, Helena's curiosity toward her grew.She noticed that despite Vera's youthful appearance, there was a calm air and maturity about her, and she possessed way too many skills without any prior instruction. She was certainly surprised that someone so young would have mastered

  Merlin nodded. "It's a bit difficult, but we already have the facial profiles on a large number of Qing Eliminating Society members. We will be alerted right away if we install vending machines at the entrances to Arlo's hospital and even register patterns if they regularly visit… though we can surmise that Arlo has been abandoned if no one visits."Charlie asked, "What if someone from the Right Military Governor's Office shows up?"Merlin replied, "We've already had a number of them identified after droves of them traveled through Naples Airport. I've instructed the AI module to set them on level one notification, so the AI module will report them immediately whenever Earthnet spots them."That said, those members may just be a small portion of them, but I can ask the AI module to cross-reference those faces recorded at the airport to the faces who showed up at the hospital. That way, we can identify those who arrived in Casablanca by plane or boat from elsewhere and then went to t

  Charlie nodded. "Penny is talented, and she is very young, too. But having come to know her, one can see that she's a warrior, not a statesman. Even if I had never captured her, she would never have been able to elevate the Qing Eliminating Society as a whole. Aside from the mind of a war strategist, they sorely need a mind that can keep up with the times."Pausing, Charlie then continued, "Oh, and considering Arlo's abilities, he wouldn't die even if he loses both hands—heck, he wouldn't even need a hospital. That's why it's puzzling why he would go to one and publicly, at that… Why do you think that is?"Merlin thought about it. "Well, considering what you did to him, they would understand that Arlo has been compromised. Going straight to the hospital only goes to show there's no point if he hides or not."Moreover, I imagine Fleur is worried that you might feed Arlo another Regeneration Pill. See, every time we encounter a murder, especially one with no known motives and an unusu

  Merlin couldn't help but laugh as he listened to Charlie mock Fleur. "I really believed for a moment that you were giving Arlo a Regeneration Pill for free, and I had to admit I thought that would be a real shame… I guess all it did was taunt Fleur while Arlo got nothing out of it. I see this as an absolute win!"Charlie nodded and said, "The pill is definitely invaluable, but as long as it leads to the outcome I want, I dare say it was worth it.""Agreed," Merlin nodded. "Arlo is just out of luck, having had three hands hacked off."Charlie laughed, "He's a Griffin under Fleur's protection—he has either committed just as many atrocities as she has, if not abetting her. The Griffins, as well as the dead soldiers and armed cavalry guards, are the reason that the Qing Eliminating Society has survived until this day. In that sense, it's a bargain that I only cut off Arlo's hand."Pausing, he then shook his head. "Nope. I first gave him one hand, then took another away. That's just fai
