Anything You Want

Phyllis raised her hand for permission to ask questions.

Chapter 66 [Spiritual Pendulum]

———————————————————————————————————

"Okay, feel free to ask any questions."

"Then, the first thing that must be confirmed is that you can really know in advance that the beluga will appear, meow?"

"Of course I'm sure I won't joke around on such occasions."

"Phyllis, he didn't lie about it."

Without waiting for Phyllis to continue to ask, Crusius spoke first, confirming that Noel was not lying.

"Although I'm sure you're not lying, how exactly are you going to prove it? If not, the information is just empty talk."

With a slight smile, Cursius questioned the source of the information.

There was no uneasiness on his expression, and Noel, who had long expected this, kept a smile and revealed the next card to them who were sitting at the negotiating table.

With a snap of his fingers, an object with a crystal chain attached to it appeared out of thin air on the negotiating table.

Putting down their guards, Curius, Phyllis, and Wilhelm carefully observed the items that appeared on the negotiating table, but they didn't know what they were after looking at them for a long time.

Unable to see what it was, Curius could only ask Noel.

"What the hell is that?"

"This item is called [Spiritual Pendulum], and it is the proof I want to give you."

"You mean that something called a [pendulum] can find a white whale. Can I understand that?"

"Of course it can be understood, and [Spiritual Pendulum] can indeed find the location and time of the beluga whale."

"Can Feili-chan touch it?"

After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the first person to reach out to the phone was Phyllis. After receiving Noel's nod for permission, he carefully picked up the pendulum to confirm the touch.

Looking at the delicate crystal attached to the chain, the crimson delicate crystal seemed to have magical power, and Felice could no longer look away.

"Phyllis, do you see something?"

"Ah? The jewelry is very special, so Feili-chan couldn't move her eyes and was deeply attracted by it. The others didn't see anything special meow."

Hearing the hello from Coursius, Felice asked the temptation of the scarlet crystal to tell the results of her observation, as for the others, she really didn't find it.

For an item that has never been seen before, whether this spirit pendulum can really play a role in finding the beluga whale, Quelxiu is very doubtful.

"[Spiritual Pendulum] can point out the location of the beluga whale. When the beluga whale is about to appear, the crystal attached to the chain will flash dazzlingly."

"In this way, there will be no means of confirming the authenticity of the information, but it is very difficult to fully accept your claim in this way. So, what should you do?"

"It's really a disturbing situation, if only there was some way to prove it."

Hearing Curius' words, Noel spread his hands in a gesture of surrender.

"Well, why don't you actually approach the monster to see if it will light up? Or do you think of a way to prove that the [spirit pendulum] is a prop that responds to the monster."

"I'm going to make a correction."

Noel raised his index finger and swayed towards Curius.

"This [Spiritual Pendulum] doesn't react to the monsters themselves. If there are monsters inhabiting the world, it won't stay on without any discipline. There must be a response, if it's a major event."

"I can't verify the authenticity, it's really hard to do."

Kuro frowned, clenching his chin slightly as if in deep thought.

Through her own talent, that is, the ability of [Blessing of the Wind], she can see whether the person in front of her is deceiving her, so that she has never been deceived in previous negotiations.

From just now until now, everything Noel has said, Curius can be sure that it is true.

But she couldn't be sure of the authenticity of the pendulum, so she didn't dare to make a rash decision.

At this time, Noel said.

"I know what you're worried about, but your worries are superfluous."

"What do you mean?"

"For four hundred years, beluga whales have used the world as a hunting ground. What kind of glory and prestige can be gained by killing beluga whales, I don't need to say more."

Kurossi nodded slightly, and stretched out his hand to signal Noel to continue.

"We can organize a group of people to hunt the beluga whales, and then enjoy this honor and prestige alone, but we need a person with prestige, status, integrity and justice in the king, and this person is needed as a striker. Witness to the killing of Moby Dick."

"I see. It seems that I am the witness you selected, right?"

"Yes, we joined forces to hunt and kill the beluga whales that have plagued them for [-] years. You prove to us that we share this honor together."

"I didn't lie, so do you think I'll agree?"

Without giving an answer directly, Curius raised his mouth with a smile, and stared at Noel with sharp eyes.

"Miss Crusius, about your planned crusade against [Moby Dick], my information will definitely come in handy."

"I want to ask something, Noel."
