Chapter 467 465-The Enigmatic Assembly

"To assist you in addressing the dire situation in your inn, I\'ll stay here for a week. I believe that within this period, we will undoubtedly succeed in resolving all the issues."

The Prophet Magus\'s decision to remain brought a sense of relief and happiness to the innkeeper. 

In her eyes, with the Prophet Magus\'s assistance, there was much less to worry about. 

"That would be wonderful," the innkeeper replied with visible relief. 

"Which room would you like to stay in? We have many vacancies on each floor, so feel free to choose one you like."

At this moment, the Prophet Magus turned his gaze directly to Ethan and asked, "May I inquire which floor your room is on? I believe that going forward, it\'s imperative for us to collaborate. Hence, I\'d like to stay on the same floor as you, so that we can easily discuss any clues I might find."

Ethan hesitated slightly in response to the Prophet Magus\'s request. 

Even now, he was unsure whether the Prophet Magus was an ally or a foe. 

Although the Prophet Magus had not treated him as a stranger and had indeed provided him with information that other guests were unaware of, there was still a possibility that these actions were a deliberate ploy to gain Ethan\'s trust.

As Ethan hesitated, the innkeeper quickly resolved the matter. "I think it\'s a great idea. He\'s staying on the fourth floor, and there are plenty of vacant rooms there."

With the innkeeper\'s input, Ethan found himself without much room to object. 

Consequently, the Prophet Magus settled into a room on the fourth floor and expressed a keen desire to have a thorough conversation with Ethan.

The two of them engaged in a lengthy discussion, although most of it involved the Prophet Magus inquiring about Ethan\'s past experiences. 

It became apparent that the Prophet Magus had already glimpsed into Ethan\'s past through the River of Destiny. 

This seemed to be the only explanation for the Prophet Magus\'s intense interest in Ethan and his insistence on knowing all about him.

After a lengthy conversation, Ethan, feeling somewhat exhausted, said to the Prophet Magus, "We\'ve been talking for quite a while now, and it\'s getting late. I think we should both head back to our rooms and rest. We can discuss matters further tomorrow. After all, we haven\'t uncovered any particularly significant clues today that warrant further immediate discussion."

Accepting Ethan\'s suggestion, the Prophet Magus promptly took his leave. 

Once the Prophet Magus had departed, Ethan made sure his room was secure, ensuring that no one outside could overhear any conversation within. 

Only then did he turn to the Shadow Elf and speak, "Who in this inn do you think we can really trust? Do you believe everything the Prophet Magus has said is true?"

Faced with Ethan\'s question, the Shadow Elf hesitated slightly. 

In truth, the Shadow Elf didn\'t trust anyone in the inn. From their perspective, every individual in the inn was shrouded in mystery, especially the recently arrived Prophet Magus, who surely harbored many secrets.

"I don\'t trust anyone in this inn right now," the Shadow Elf confessed. 

"Of course, I trust you, but even you seem to be struggling to grasp the full picture of what\'s happening here."

Ethan nodded in agreement, "You\'re right, I too haven\'t figured out the situation. And I feel like I haven\'t seen through anyone in this inn. Let\'s start with the innkeeper. Initially, she seemed to me like any ordinary innkeeper. But in the series of events that followed, her composure seemed a bit too calm."

"Given that this inn is located at the base of the Glacial Peaks, she, as the owner, must have encountered many powerful individuals. Despite this, the vanquishing of a Cryo magus in her inn only elicited a mild reaction from her. Isn\'t that worth questioning? Is it normal to react so minimally under such circumstances?"

As Ethan spoke, the Shadow Elf took out a piece of paper and began to jot down notes. 

It seemed that they were likely going to analyze each person in the inn meticulously, as the Shadow Elf considered this an important step. 

Ethan\'s observations and the Shadow Elf\'s note-taking highlighted the critical nature of their task. 

"The second person to consider is the Prophet Magus. From the moment I first met him, I sensed he was no ordinary individual. He successfully prophesied our visit to seek him out and even the purpose of our visit. Both of us are not lacking in strength, and the fact that he could foresee events related to us indicates that his own abilities must be considerable."

"Although my understanding of the River of Destiny is not extensive, I have always believed that it isn\'t something a regular Prophet Magus could easily comprehend. The destinies of those with great power, as contained within the River of Destiny, ought to be unique and incredibly challenging to discern."

At this moment, the Shadow Elf suddenly interjected, "While my knowledge of the River of Destiny is also limited, I am more familiar with the Chronicle Mist. The properties you\'ve described align with those of the Chronicle Mist. Understanding the past of beings with immense power requires an equally formidable force. Without such power, it\'s impossible to access that information."

Ethan nodded in agreement, finding that the Shadow Elf\'s words corroborated his own suspicions. 

Their upcoming collaboration with the Prophet Magus would need to be approached with caution. 

The Prophet Magus could potentially target them, and even if he bore no ill will, his mere presence and abilities posed a significant risk.

The exchange between Ethan and the Shadow Elf underscored the delicacy of their situation. 

As they navigated the murky waters of collaboration with the Prophet Magus, the need for vigilance and strategic thinking was paramount. 

"Apart from these two, the other guests in the inn are also quite peculiar. Do you remember the person we encountered on our first day here, the one shrouded in a black robe? He hasn\'t shown himself at all today. Don\'t you wonder where he might be? I suspect he might have been hiding in the shadows all along, possibly planning something against us."

"While we\'re having this conversation, he might even be eavesdropping. I haven\'t been able to discern his strength, and I believe that the robe he wears is harboring even greater secrets."

Upon Ethan\'s mention of the mysterious figure in black they encountered initially, the Shadow Elf seemed to recall something significant. 

He quickly alerted Ethan, "That person possesses a very powerful Power of Shadow. I also sensed that he might have received considerable strength from the Shadow Clan\'s Valhalla. It\'s possible that he could be a former member of the Shadow Clan. What puzzles me, though, is why a member of the Shadow Clan would come to this place. The Shadow Clan has always been known to fear the Glacial Peaks."

"Members of the Shadow Clan have always believed that the Glacial Peaks are hostile to the Power of Shadow, so they dare not venture here. Even Dart, who is often considered reckless, wouldn\'t dare to come to this place."

Upon hearing the Shadow Elf mention Dart, a realization suddenly struck Ethan. 

He had been overlooking the fact that Dart hadn\'t betrayed the Shadow Clan alone; there were other accomplices. 

Could it be that the mysterious figure in black was one of Dart\'s associates? 

If that were the case, everything would start to make sense, including the black-robed individual\'s behavior upon encountering Ethan.

This thought left Ethan feeling that the situation he was facing was becoming increasingly dire. 

He hadn\'t anticipated facing threats linked to Dart upon arriving at the foot of the Glacial Peaks. 

"I really feel quite helpless," Ethan lamented. 

"Dart chose to be my enemy on his own accord. If he hadn\'t, none of this would have happened. I never wanted to be in opposition to Dart. I didn\'t expect that coming here would mean facing threats related to him. If Dart is still alive, he will surely pursue me to this place. It seems that Dart\'s associates are likely seeking revenge on his behalf. We must be more cautious in our next moves; it\'s very possible that the enemies we\'ve encountered before have now joined forces."

Ethan\'s reminder brought a sense of increased pressure to the Shadow Elf. 

They realized that they might face even more crises before the blizzard subsides.
