Amber Sword

Chapter 1202: Chapter 303: Whirlpool VII_4

Jill couldn’t help but admire his own cleverness for a moment. His emerald green eyes were spinning rapidly, and he even recalled some details he hadn’t noticed before.

"Three people? Can you imitate their tone?"

"Brand?" Frey was slightly stunned. She looked at Brand curiously, feeling this request was somewhat redundant. To be honest, the tone and way nobles speak are quite similar, making it difficult to distinguish who is who through a conversation—especially when you don’t know who the other person is.

But Brand shook his head slightly, indicating she needn’t worry. He furrowed his brows slightly, his thoughts clearer than ever. Magdalene’s plight had truly angered him. This time, those in the shadows were destined to face his wrath.

Mimicry is one of the primary skills of the Night Thieves, and Jill was naturally adept at it. He first imitated the tone and accent of the first person, and upon hearing it, Brand understood, "Moros." He silently mouthed to himself.

"Next one."

"You Xi."

"And the next one."

"This guy seems unfamiliar, but his tone sounds like a soldier; the Harbor Guard isn’t in league with the Holy Temple yet, plus Moros and You Xi wouldn’t trust them, likely someone from one of the major legions. Count Vitokin’s confidant?" Brand’s brow was furrowed tightly. The concern Frey had earlier was not a problem for him. Ordinary people might not discern it, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t.

Those daring to make a move against Princess Magdalene would not be nobodies; they’d certainly be people of renown. In all of Erune, there were only a few such figures, individuals Brand was incredibly familiar with through history. Their tones were unmistakable to his ears.

Adding on the act of harming Princess Magdalene, even the Holy Temple couldn’t cover it up. Hence, the fewer who knew, the better. Those who make such moves would certainly handle matters personally and not leave it to others.

Listening to Jill’s description only confirmed Brand’s suspicions—indeed, it was true.

A cold smile appeared on Brand’s face, and his eyes were just as icy. Seeing his expression, Frey couldn’t help but be slightly taken aback, "Brand, you know?"

She found it somewhat unbelievable. Although Brand’s past abilities made her trust that there was nothing he couldn’t do, this was just too incredible. Was there really someone in this world born omniscient and omnipotent?

This thought only existed briefly in the heart of the future Valkyrie, but she quickly saw Princess Magdalene’s pale face, feeling a pang of sympathy, faintly understanding the reason for Brand’s anger.

"Brand..." she called softly, feeling a twinge of sadness.

But Brand gently patted her hand and whispered, "Don’t worry, there’s still a chance to save Princess Magdalene. But no matter what, this time I must teach those lurking schemers a lesson they’ll never forget in their lives."

The last few words he uttered through clenched teeth.

"Ah!" Frey froze, unable to believe it, and lifted her head to look at her companion, "The Princess... she..."

Brand nodded seriously, not as a comfort, but because he suddenly recalled something.

(PS: Went back to my hometown during the day yesterday, today I’ll make up with a big Chapter of five thousand words. I’ll try to stabilize myself, although it’s been a long break, I still hope for everyone’s continued support. I will naturally repay with better quality, thank you.) (To be continued.
