My Magical Card Tavern

Chapter 83 The Star Speaker

"Okay, so you mean you've given me a mission to protect a high-value target?"

Ginnell looked up at the golden cradle, which had shrunk in size, and ended her state of full-force prayer.

"It seems we'll have to take this little thing back to the tavern then."

If the identity isn't too complicated, simply handing the child over to the high priest in the camp should allow for a quick recovery.

But since the old man Silver Star said that this little thing is a treasure, then it won't work in the crowded front camp. Taking it back to the tavern is the most reasonable choice.

It wasn't that I didn't trust the high priest of the Holy Light Church, but rather that I didn't trust so many eyes and ears in the camp.

Who knows if any of Maloren Bach's people are in there.

Although once the news got back, everyone knew that the so-called treasure had most likely been taken by the tavern owner, every little bit of time they could buy them was worth it.

For the sake of his own business, and also to consider the old man a little, this treasure naturally carries the attribute of being untradeable.

If you really push Ginell too far, he'll just carry the little thing to the Church of Holy Light and confront them directly.

Let's not say that this little thing has any secrets or some kind of evil plot.

The opponent's emaciated body and battered appearance alone were enough to entice the Holy Light believers to lend a helping hand, and some extreme fanatics might even go into a blood-rage-fueled state.

If anyone dares to try and snatch someone from the Church of Holy Light, they should first try to see if they can withstand Sister Eve's double-edged axe.

"Ginnell asked."

"Old man, who else is in the Dark Forest now?"

Silver Star's voice entered Ginell's mind.

"Wait a moment, little Ginnell. My power has just been weakened, and it may take some time before I can investigate the situation in the outer area of ​​the Dark Forest."

"For safety reasons, do not recall these card minions yet, at least not before you step into the tavern."

Ginnell nodded to indicate that he understood, and that he hadn't returned to the tavern immediately because of the little one's health.

The other person's health is too poor.

Even with a conceptual mechanic like Heart of Fire, Gianna was worried that the little one might die on the way back to the tavern, so she could only use the Golden Cradle move within the safe zone.

The golden amber water ripples slowly dissipated, and Ginell reached out and caught the little thing in mid-air.

It's a bit dirty.

The Golden Cradle spell targets the opponent's life force; it could even be described as a holy light spell with a battlefield-style aesthetic.

Let's survive first.

The rag on the little thing was still as dirty as ever, with no improvement whatsoever.

We'll deal with this when we get back.

Ginnell certainly knows the simple magic of cleaning, but for some reason, he can't just clean the rag right now.

This is certainly not because he has any perverted hobbies, but because the more information he retains now, the more convenient it will be in the future.

At least you don't need to go to Baker Street to ask a famous detective for help to find the people and the location.

With the card servants clearing the way, Ginnell carried the little guy, whose breathing had just stabilized, back to the tavern.

When the door opened this time, Ginnell clearly felt the temperature inside the tavern rise suddenly, and the little thing in her arms trembled as if having a nightmare.

The power of the Heart of the Furnace is taking effect.

Ginnell looked around and finally decided to put the little thing back in its room.

Fun fact: Don't take a bath when you're not feeling well.

Back in the room, Ginnell waved her right hand, and magic unwrapped the rag while simultaneously wrapping the little thing in a change of clothes of her own. The cleaning spell, which had been ready to be unleashed, was then released.

The cleaning process was completed in the instant before the little thing was wrapped in clean clothes, and the transition was perfect.

I just don't know when this child will wake up.

Ginnell closed the door and made himself a plate of peanuts.

A few minutes later, Silver Star's voice finally rang out.

"She escaped on her own, and she escaped with the help of the stars."

"However, little Ginnell, the star power that this child is using does not belong to me. The shrinking of the safe zone is actually because I was attacked."

Ginnell seemed to be deep in thought.

The old man was struck, and during this process, the child discovered a certain opportunity, so he used the power of the stars to escape.

"I thought you got into trouble while saving this child, but it turns out that's not the case."

"So here's the question: you said that child is a treasure?"

Yin Xing remained silent for a while, seemingly pondering how to explain.

"Little Ginnell, I don't know if you know anything about this."

"But have you ever heard of the Star Speakers before?"

Genele suddenly looked up at her room.

Star Speaker?

"Although I don't know what it is, judging from the name, it should be a profession that allows one to communicate with the stars."

"The Star Speakers in your card collection, and even those Silver Star Believers, are they the so-called Star Speakers?"

This time, Yin Xing answered much faster.

"Not entirely, little Gianna."

"Star Speaker is an innate talent, and it's not the same as the professional you're thinking of."

"A Star Speaker can become a Star Speaker Priest or another profession, but not the other way around; it's a matter of talent."

"It's my fault that this child has become like this..."

'

Gianna frowned.

"Old man, don't put too much pressure on yourself. After all, you are also a victim in this whole thing."

"The little guy has talent, but that talent has been exploited and used by some guys, and they are very likely using him to do something."

"But this has nothing to do with you; you are both victims."

Judging from the records of the Fate Generator, Silver Star can be said to have given it her all.

Even in his last moments, he was still worried about the lives of Pan Gu, using his last bit of strength to protect them.

"Those who made mistakes and should pay the price are the people who harmed you, and their subordinates."

Gianna's fingertips tapped slowly on the bar counter as she closed her eyes, deep in thought.

The Star Speaker seized the opportunity to escape, especially when someone was attacking the old man.

In other words, at least suppressing the old man's power was not part of their plan.

It was precisely because they targeted the safe zone that some oversights occurred in personnel deployment, allowing the Star Speakers to seize the opportunity and successfully leave.

The old man's claim that he caused the child to suffer likely refers to the fact that some people used some rather evil and bloody methods to forcibly use the power of the Star Speakers.

The injuries on the little creature revealed some clues.
