After scolding her less-than-impressive teammates, Mengdie finally continued explaining the situation. When Mengdie mentioned that Edward's life or death directly affected Aya's life, Edward and Nia were both stunned.
"Mengdie sister! So, what should we do now?"
Mengdie: "Don't ask me what to do first, I need to know if these deductions are correct or not. Edward, you've been in Luowei for a while now. Tell me, has the relationship between the two countries improved or worsened?"
Edward thought for a moment and seriously said, "I've been wandering around these days and saw some of Luowei's newspapers. It seems that the army of Yinyue is gathering towards Mizusriwa Lake. And people on the streets look hurried, so... the situation doesn't seem good."
"Hmm. Then I guessed right," Mengdie nodded and began to answer Nia's question, "What we need to do next is simple, we must immediately inform Yinyue that Edward is still alive. This will protect Aya to the greatest extent. However, the borders and communications between the two countries must have been restricted. We need a faster way to transmit information. Xiu, you're a magician and a 'genius scientist'. Do you have any good methods?"
To motivate him, Mengdie deliberately emphasized "genius scientist" very grandly. As expected, Xiu's eyes sparkled instantly.
Xiu: "Hahaha! Indeed! You still need me at times like this!"
Mengdie: "Speak, what's your method?"
Xiu: "It's simple, I just need to invent a device that can spread information quickly. Let me think... basically, we need 'sound wave' magic stones. Then, by modifying them, we can transmit our voices from the Luowei Empire to Yinyue Empire. Yes, give me some time, at most two weeks, maybe a month, I can definitely make it!"
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Mengdie, Nia, and Edward were speechless at Xiu's proud declaration.
"Mengdie... isn't there a faster way? Like turning a letter into an eagle or some magic, and flying it directly there," Mengdie thought of the white eagle that delivered messages during the bandit suppression.
Xiu was slightly startled, then burst into laughter: "Ah! That kind of method! Wind magic combined with summoning spirit beasts, then using divine power to transform the letter, thus achieving long-distance transmission. Yes, this method is feasible."
Hearing Xiu's confident explanation, Nia, anxious for her sister, couldn't hold back and urgently tugged at his clothes: "Then hurry up! Cast the spell quickly! My sister... I need to save my sister!"
Xiu laughed heartily: "Can do. Just give me half a year to learn all these spells, and I'll cast them immediately!"
"Whooosh—!!!"
A punch flew past Xiu's ear with the force of a thunderbolt. His smile froze instantly, and he awkwardly looked at the serious girl in front of him...
"Xiu, we don't have time for jokes. Please take this seriously."
Xiu coughed, finally sobering up: "Sorry, I shouldn't joke at such a time. But I'm just a magic apprentice, and I really don't know any high-level spells. Using wind spells, summoning spells, and divine power simultaneously is not easy. Otherwise, the sky would be filled with various 'carrier pigeons'."
From Xiu's helpless expression, it seemed he was telling the truth. But in the Luowei Empire, which mage would agree to help an enemy country send a message? And also ensure that Edward's whereabouts aren't exposed to the empire...
The four people began to stand in different corners of the room, deep in thought. Mengdie leaned against the windowsill, directly viewing the grand cathedral of the Dadu Church. A marble statue of a goddess with beautiful long hair and a white dress stood atop the cathedral, her hands joined in prayer for the world...
"Ding."
A bell tolled from the top of the church's bell tower, marking one o'clock.
...Wait a minute, the Dadu Church? Isn't this the birthplace of divine power? And in this country, the only person who can use divine power, wind magic, and is somewhat trustworthy... is one!
"Luowei Empire's Third Princess—Sashara Luowei!"
Almost simultaneously, Edward shouted this name. He excitedly raised his obsidian sword, pointing towards the cathedral: "Mengdie! You said last time that this princess knows wind magic and is an honorary nun of the Dadu Church, and also your friend, right? So... let's ask her! Considering she was once my fiancée, I think she would definitely agree!"
Mengdie sighed, unsure whether to praise the prince for his lack of scheming or criticize his naivety. His status as a fiancé was worthless now, and they hadn't even met before. Suddenly appearing and saying "I'm your fiancé, help me" would likely only repel her.
However, this route was indeed feasible. Sashara seemed like a good girl, and explaining the pros and cons to her, she would probably help. And knowing Edward was in the Luowei Empire, Yinyue wouldn't act rashly, which would be beneficial for her as a princess and her country.
Mengdie shared her thoughts with everyone, and they all agreed this might be the best method. What remained was the challenge of how to meet the princess in her palace.
