Chapter 1049: Chapter 365: Divine Projection
Admiral Edward’s office.
“This is just too exaggerated!” Olena’s beautiful eyes widened, her face showing a look of shock as she looked at the first public document in front of her.
Lord Rein is truly formidable; he actually killed three Legendary strongmen of the Sea God Sect in a single battle in Marn Province.
Moreover, the speed at which Lord Rein’s strength is growing is even more terrifying, almost more so than the church’s chosen one.
However, this is clearly a good thing, so why is Admiral Edward wearing such a grave expression? Olena thought to herself.
When Olena saw the second public document, she couldn’t help but exclaim: “Admiral, is this… Lord Rein is leaving our division soon?”
She finally understood why Admiral Edward had asked her to come to the office first thing in the morning.
It turns out that Lord Rein’s achievements in Marn Province have been known by the Empire Swordsmen Headquarters, and they’ve issued a transfer order.
“Yes, that’s why I called you over.”
“Ah, though I knew we couldn’t keep Rein forever, I didn’t expect it to be so soon!” Admiral Edward sighed deeply.
“Sir, is there really no chance? Can we contact the Duke to delay it for a bit?” Olena furrowed her brow slightly, thought for a while, and asked.
“The order was personally signed by Marshal Alfred.” Admiral Edward shook his head and said.
Hearing Admiral Edward’s response, Olena also knew that this matter was settled.
For a moment, the room was somewhat silent.
“Olena, although Rein’s transfer is a huge loss to the division, it is actually a good thing for Rein. Contact Rein immediately and have him return to Mingster as soon as possible to prepare.”
“Okay, sir, I’ll contact him right away.” Olena nodded and said.
Indeed, for Lord Rein, this transfer order is a good thing.
He was promoted three levels at once, from a Diamond Star Swordsman directly to a Fine Gold Swordsman, and his treatment and other aspects have also advanced several steps.
Moreover, there are more special items to exchange at the headquarters, and given Lord Rein’s talent, his strength is likely to improve further.
Sigh, I just hope that Lord Rein will visit Mingster more often in the future… Olena thought to herself.

Wailing Wind Fjord.
On the coast near the shipwreck, the waves rhythmically lapped against the beach.
On the beach, numerous fiddler crabs were foraging near their respective holes when suddenly, as if sensing something, they hurriedly dashed into their narrow burrows.
A great mass of crystal-clear water suddenly rose nearly two meters high on the shore, then quickly transformed into the shape of a human female.
If this manipulation was something that most water element wizards could achieve.
Then the scene that followed was truly astonishing.
The once translucent body, composed of seawater, suddenly seemed to undergo some form of material transformation, turning from seawater into a real flesh-and-blood human female, even the black robe on her body seemed to be made of silk material.
This scene, if witnessed by others, would surely be hailed as a miracle.
In fact, it truly was a miracle because it was the materialized manifestation of a wisp of the will projection of the Nether Sea Goddess Hela.
A few minutes earlier, during the prayer process at the Sea God Sect headquarters, Hela, who had slightly awakened, noticed that her power of faith at the Wailing Wind Fjord was rapidly dissipating, including a devout believer she valued highly—the Deep Sea Giant Leader Dune.
Thus, she leveraged the prayer ceremony at the Sea God Sect headquarters to project a wisp of willpower down.
The black-robed girl glanced around with her beautiful eyes, then walked lightly to the place where Rein and the strongmen of the Sea God Sect had previously fought.
However, this place was not empty, but rather bustling.
At this moment, the central area had already been occupied by the private soldiers of the Dalair family, while the outer circle was filled with various mercenaries, rummaging through the spoils from the battle between Rein and the Ice Claw Bear Mercenary Group, such as weapons of the Sea Clan strongmen and ornaments on their bodies.
The black-robed girl took a distant look; seemingly deliberately restraining her aura, Hela’s arrival did not alert anyone.
Seeing her silhouette flash, she appeared before a private soldier guarding nearby, bearing the Dalair family emblem on his chest, and before he could react, several thin lines of black water flowed into his ears, nose, and mouth, penetrating further into his brain.
As the private soldier’s eyes turned white and his entire body twitched involuntarily, memories flashed through the black-robed girl’s eyes like a slide show.
“Camacho, is it?” Hela pondered.
To find Rein, who had killed many of her followers, Hela understood that naturally, she needed to find the most powerful person in the area to inquire about the simplest way.
More importantly, her projection was consuming energy every moment, and even a true god couldn’t sustain it for too long, so she needed to find Rein as quickly as possible.
The next second, she appeared a dozen meters away, and after a few blinks, she was already out of sight.
Yilgala Town.
In the most luxurious mansion, originally the residence of the town mayor, but with Camacho representing the Dalair family present, the mayor of Yilgala Town sensibly vacated the premises.
In the banquet hall, Camacho was holding two charming dancers, his face flush red as he drank heavily.
This was a complete mess, having been sternly reprimanded by his father, Earl Dalair, Camacho felt quite depressed.
