Chapter 1166: Enemies in the Phoenix Court

The mantle of the Blade Lord?

Alana hesitated for three seconds, and finally nodded in agreement.

Isn't it just to capture the followers of Slaanesh? The most important thing Iris lacks is experience in dealing with demons. If this believer of Slaanesh dares to reveal his true identity, I promise to let him taste the power of the eye of the storm.

Seeing Alanna agree, Upton was overjoyed, handed the girl several pieces of information that he had investigated over the past few days, and said carefully.

"The enemy is at the Phoenix King's Court."

What?

Alanna, who was puzzled, was dragged out of the Brady Manor. With a piece of information from the Blade Lord, she foolishly found an elder who worked at the Phoenix Court.

The magic swordsman Cavil is known as the right-hand man of the War Lord. This trusted warrior has been respected in the Phoenix Court since Eltharion rose to prominence in Ulthuan.

Currently, he is a permanent member of the War Council, considered the first rank person under the princes.

Cavill, who was in the office dealing with the issues left over from the last war parliament, looked at Alanna who was chattering endlessly and couldn't help but smile.

"Alanna, I understand that you really want to show your abilities in front of the Phoenix King, but now that His Majesty is in the old world, you don't need to use a few pieces of unfounded information to say that there are Slaanesh elements lurking in the Phoenix King's Court."

"But this is the information Mr. Upton gave me." Alanna stared at her beautiful eyes, unbelievable at Cavell's perfunctory behavior.

Doesn't it mean that the Blade Lord doesn't even have any prestige in the Phoenix Court?

The girl's words made Cavill cover his forehead in distress. Where should I start? Upton has been a little nervous recently. He thinks there are Chaos believers wherever he goes and builds the Brady Manor given by His Majesty into a military fortress. , for fear that someone would murder him.

"Okay, let's talk about the information. Who are the followers of Slaanesh?"

Alana said a name without thinking: "Phyllis."

Cavill was a little embarrassed and asked cautiously: "Where's your last name?"

"No, the surname was not shown in the information Mr. Upton gave me."

Why is this girl as stupid as Elsharion...

Cavill let out a long sigh: "If there is no second person named Phyllis in the Phoenix Court, the Slaanesh believers you are referring to are the personal maids who have served His Majesty for more than three hundred years."

"Uh..." Alana was stunned for a moment, then thought of the beauty who was inseparable from His Majesty.

"Maybe Mr. Upton made a mistake, maybe it was Finas?"

"There is no one named Finas in the royal court."

"Trier?"

"He is a courtier brought by His Majesty from Caledor. He has been responsible for the financial budget of the Dragon Palace since he was a child. He is a famous arithmetic genius in Caledor. He is now the administrator of His Majesty's private treasury."

"Commons?"

"The Caledor Dragonmaster... specializes in serving the dragons stationed in Lothern." Cavell really couldn't believe why Upton would doubt these people, if they were originally Fenubar's courtiers.

But to doubt the people Caledor brought seems a bit targeted, right?

All in all, Alana named more than ten names in succession, all of which were people who originally belonged to the Dragon Palace. Judging from their identities, they were the Phoenix King's cronies.

It wasn't until a name appeared that Cavill realized that the situation might have changed.

"Grantham."

"He is registered in the royal court..." Cavill subconsciously wanted to answer Grantham's position, but the magic swordsman's brain worked extremely fast. When the name was spoken, he could also recall everyone's origin. origin.

But when it was Grantham's turn, his mind went blank, and he only knew that he was the household registration manager of the Royal Court.

"Something's wrong..." Cavill thought silently in his heart. It was not easy to blur the memory of a magic swordsman. He used secret methods to investigate the memory, but he couldn't find anything weird about it.

The magic swordsman put his hands on the table, and his expression no longer looked helpless at the junior's nonsense, but became more solemn: "How does Mr. Upton describe Grantham in his intelligence?"

"No description, just a name."

It seems that the old guy did find something...

Cavill motioned to Alanna to sit on the sofa and wait for a moment. He replaced the attendant and asked for the files about Grantham in the royal court.

Ten minutes later, a brand new file arrived in Cavell's hands.

"Grantham, born in Caledovar Anvil, has shown outstanding learning ability since childhood... At the age of sixty-three, he entered the Dragon Palace and served as Tal Kaled's personnel commissioner, coordinating the affairs of the palace and the government...

At the age of one hundred and twenty-six, he was sent to Qingyan Port in the New World to serve as a census taker and responsible for the management of the elf community... At the age of two hundred and seventeen, he came to Lothern with Prince Caledor..."

Judging from the data, Grantham's situation is very consistent with the characteristics of the Dragon Palace officials. He is a commoner and capable. Although he is young, he has rich experience.

But Cavell thinks this is too normal.

Too normal to look like a Caledorian official. You need to know that the first few people Alana wanted to talk about, each of them had their hands covered with blood, and at least they could use Druzi's skull as a bowl.

Even Trier, the arithmetic genius who lacks the most combat ability, works as an artillery ballistics instructor at the Comprehensive Academy in his spare time, and works part-time as a long-range projection fire weapon design consultant for the Caledor army.

Cavill wants to report this to the Phoenix King immediately. Maybe your household registration clerk has been replaced by a Slaanesh demon with three balls.

However, the Phoenix King was not in Lothern at this time, and the captain of the Flame Knights also left for the Old World. The Royal Court lacked a Caledor faction figure who could make the final decision.

Moreover, before reporting, the truth of the matter should be investigated first...

Alanna waited for Kavel for a long time, and seeing that the magic swordsman was still in deep thought, she was inevitably a little anxious.

"Uncle Kavel, is there any problem with this Grantham? If so, then I will go and catch him.

Don't worry, I learned a lot of interrogation methods from my uncle, and I guarantee that he will not tell a single lie."

Although he trusted Isharion's interrogation methods, Kavel believed that if Iris's people intervened in the internal affairs of the Royal Court without authorization, it would appear that the warlord was too much.

Now Isharion has only been in office for a few years, and he has not yet reached the point where he can ignore the majesty of the Royal Court.

"This matter needs to be handled by the White Lion Guards. They are the real law enforcers of the Royal Court..."

Alanna, who was extremely disappointed, soon got another good news.

I only heard Cavill say: "Of course, since this matter was caused by you, you must cooperate with the White Lion Guard's investigation."

The magic swordsman wrote a document and handed it to the excited girl.

"Take this document to find Cossell, he will investigate the abnormality of Grantham, you follow the investigation, but don't lose face for Iris." (End of this chapter)
