"What we need to decide now is when we should act."
Miss Bayes had gotten to the heart of the matter. In this brightly lit resting room, their plans from the past few dozen minutes had already begun to form a rough strategy.
Before tonight, none of them had expected things to go so smoothly. But all three possessed their own special qualities, and they were legitimate Ring Arcanists trained by The Church and the Academy. Though the Silver-Eyed One was a Ninth Ring, he came from an illegal organization and was seriously injured. While the combined Rings of the three of them only equaled the Silver-Eyed One's injured state, battles between Ring Arcanists involved far more than just rank.
"The sooner, the better. The Blood Spirit School has dispatched an Eighth Ring and a Ninth Ring Arcanist to assist the Blood of Mercury. They should arrive around next weekend. So we have to act within a week."
Shade provided another crucial piece of information. He had learned about the Blood Spirit School from Miss Galina at Yodel Palace on Wednesday.
"Preferably before Thursday. The Church has decided to act on Thursday night and eradicate the cultists who worship the evil god, Lord of the Blood Feast. A Thirteenth Ring Warlock known as the Sunlight Greatsword will lead them. After that, the Blood of Mercury will certainly become more vigilant."
Miss Bayes also shared the intelligence she possessed.
"Why not divine again?"
As she spoke, Miss Bayes picked up the last Blood Money coin, but Miss Annette shook her head.
"Just now, we were only gathering information, which could be divined. But if we deliberately try to use Destiny to glimpse the best possible future, I'm afraid it would put us in even greater danger."
