“You’ve been infected by the plague but showed no symptoms?”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill also had a moment of revelation, as if he had grasped something crucial.

From what it appears now, that coffin probably was problematic.

But the origin of the plague isn’t important.

The key is,

Since it was a widespread infection, Tracy Garcia hadn’t shown any symptoms.

This could only imply that her body was special.

If it were an ordinary person, it could be chalked up to probability.

But coincidentally, Tracy Garcia was also the heir of a High Priest.

An intuition told Leonard Churchill.

The reason Tracy Garcia was being hunted was probably not because of some thing.

But because of who she was!

Leonard Churchill asked further: “Then, after your mother discovered this, she told you to escape with all your belongings?”

“Yes!”

As if understanding something herself, Tracy Garcia’s pretty face lit up.

Afraid and on the run, she seemed to suddenly understand the reason now.

But after thinking for a moment, her eyebrows furrowed again.

She couldn’t figure out the direct connection between this and her being hunted, and murmured: “But…my mother didn’t say anything…”

Upon hearing this,

Leonard Churchill fell into deep thought.

He also couldn’t figure out why her mother allowed her to escape first, but didn’t say anything.

His eyes flickered, thoughts rapidly turning in his mind.

Tracy Garcia’s mother must have discovered something, or she wouldn’t have let Tracy escape in advance.

But since she didn’t say anything, unless…

She couldn’t say it?

But why couldn’t she?

Leonard Churchill instantly realized that this might be something beyond his understanding.

Luckily, he read many books.

He recalled some records in the classics.

There were many mysterious methods in this world, like Prophecies and Divinations. Once uttered, they would leave traces in space and time.

Some higher beings could follow these traces to perceive them.

Just like an old saying from the ancient books, mentioning the taboo name of a God could be perceived by a higher consciousness.

Aside from this, Leonard Churchill couldn’t think of any other reason why Tracy Garcia’s mother didn’t explain what she had discovered.

But upon thinking to this point, he sucked in a cold breath.

Looking at the young lady in front of him who seemed to still not understand the situation, he felt that this matter most likely involved a significant causality.

Looking back, was the girl’s perfect luck in the Alternate Dimension not due to fortune, but because her body was problematic?

Thinking so deeply, he was lost in his thoughts.

Tracy Garcia felt somewhat uncomfortable being stared at like that and asked, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, why are you looking at me like that?”

Upon hearing her, Leonard Churchill was brought back to his senses, his eyebrows furrowed.

He knew asking like this, wouldn’t lead to any results.

He thought of something and said, “I think… You should meticulously review the items your mother had you take. There might be something very important inside.”

Upon hearing this, Tracy Garcia’s pretty face expressed slight difficulty. Clearly, she had already tried.

She stated straightaway, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, why don’t you help me check? I’ve already looked through it once. I didn’t find anything special.”

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill’s expression looked somewhat speechless.

It would be fine if it were an ordinary person’s possessions.

But the Orlan Kingdom, a kingdom that had ruled the Underground Kingdom for over a thousand years?

Their royal treasures were probably priceless, something that even current nobles couldn’t imagine.

Even if she was on the run, as the daughter of a High Priest, how could the items her mother entrusted her with not have any treasures?

This girl, is she really not concerned about an outsider?

Leonard Churchill retorted sarcastically, “Aren’t you afraid that I might run off with some supreme treasure the moment it’s found?”

Upon hearing this, Tracy Garcia was nonchalant, “Ah…Mr. Leonard Churchill, if you find something you like, just take it.”

Presumably, when she entrusted him with the Storage Ring earlier, she had this thought.

If she couldn’t survive, it would be better to give the items to a friend.

Upon hearing this, Leonard Churchill’s expression also changed slightly.

But he didn’t comment, instead, he started helping Tracy Garcia rummage through her belongings.

He felt that only by discovering some “key,” could the danger of Tracy Garcia being hunted be thoroughly resolved.

But he only offered to help sort things.

Leonard Churchill didn’t believe that an outsider could discover hidden techniques left by the High Priest Orlan, whose Card Master level was unknown. As he sorted, he reminded her, “Think about some secrets that only you and your mother know of. Like nursery rhymes sung to you when you were young, birthday gifts, shared riddles, word puzzles, proverbs, etc.”

Tracy Garcia also instantly had an idea, said, “Oh.”

With a trustworthy helper, she could finally concentrate and think.
